The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
102. Talk to Antha's uncle
Lein was treated by medical immediately by the order of Uncle Antha, while I also received treatment because in my body there were some injuries that were not too severe.
According to Antha's uncle, Lein's injuries were quite severe, he could have been bleeding severely if he was not treated quickly.
"The injury he received was just a puncture and slash, but it was enough to make him bleed. We managed to stop the bleeding, but he was still unconscious" Hunter said.
By the way, in the world of Hunter, there is no such thing as a doctor on the battlefield, because for Hunters, doctors who do not have the ability to fight will only hinder, he said, so they recruited people who were good at fighting but also good at medical science to take care of the wounded hunters. The doctors are only for ordinary humans who don't fight.
That's why, my grandfather said, not a few medical majors contain Hunters who study medicine, so no one is surprised if at a school suddenly someone comes carrying a firearm, so no one, go to class, and learn.
Other majors are also so, the Hunters can appear in various majors, with reasons to increase knowledge.
Hunters who have other abilities besides fighting are usually sought after by Hunter organizations, my grandfather said.
"How many hours exactly? Already want the morning of the problem, he must give an explanation for the riots last night." said Antha's uncle, "Do I submit it?"
I was silent, my body was bandaged in some parts and the pain was reduced after treatment.
"No Hunter wants to replace Lein, so what now?" ask Uncle Antha again, "Are you sure you want to let the citizens wonder about last night?"
Ah, about last night, when I ran on the roof to escape from Hunter headquarters, it must have caused quite a commotion, so the residents might just be confused and they need confirmation.
"Alright, you alone represent Mr. Lein to give an explanation to the townspeople." he shook his head, "Sir Lein has no representative to replace him if the current situation occurs."
"Well, I'll go.." Antha's uncle shook his hand, "I'll go."
I stood up and followed Uncle Antha out after thanking the Hunter who treated me.

"Your name is Sky? Can you tell me about your strange ability?" asked uncle Antha suddenly.
I was surprised he asked that, and I replied although a little surprised, "I practice often, that's all."
"So, are you able to explain the origin of the Black Fire Sword can be in your hands?" asked Uncle Antha again, making me flinch a little.
"Bi-Can." I replied with a little nervousness.
Even though I already knew that Uncle Antha used to be an S rank Hunter, still I was surprised that Uncle Antha knew the name of my sword even considering its shape.
"Where did uncle know about the Black Fire Sword?" tanyaku, wanted to know about the reason behind his knowledge of the Black Fire Sword.
"Why not know? I was once one of the fifteen Hunter rank S in the RedWhite center in Indonesia, and I was close to the second strongest S rank Hunter in RedWhite, that is Sky Star grandfather." uncle Antha replied with a big smile, "I won't forget the big Star grandfather's smile."
I lowered my head when Uncle Antha discussed my grandfather, it was like evoking various good memories with my grandfather.
"I often ask a lot of things to Star grandfather, how to survive on the battlefield, how to anticipate an impromptu attack from Monsters, and many more." Antha's uncle's smile widened, "And I'll never forget his concept of mastering and mastering..."
You're strong, you rule, you're weak, you lose.
"I've explained it, now it's your turn." Uncle Antha lowered her smile and she glanced at me, "Where did you get the Black Fire Sword?"
I pulled the Black Flame Sword and pulled it from its sheath, "This sword is my grandfather's last legacy before dying. My grandfather's name is Sky Star."
"The Black Flame Sword has accompanied my grandfather's last fight in the Hunter world in the Icelandic Raid, this sword has fulfilled his last duty of accompanying my grandfather in his last fight" I added.
Uncle Antha was silent to hear him, he smiled faintly and asked again, "Has he died?"
I nodded, "Yes, he died a week earlier, in the morning."
"What's his last request?" ask uncle Antha.
"My grandfather wanted his body to be covered with a red and white flag and the flag was buried with him, as an object that could embrace him in the cold of the ground." I replied, "He wanted the red and white to keep holding him, nothing more..."
Uncle Antha sighed and the early morning breeze was soothing when we told her such a story.
"Until he died though, he still respected the red and white flag." Antha's uncle chuckled lightly, "Well, he was braver than I was anyway..."
"I used to be an S rank Hunter, often fighting in the vanguard with the Devil Hand science as well as the Demon Gauntlet, but even so, I still could not protect my precious figure."
"I'm afraid of losing it again if Rei goes to Jakarta to become a Hunter, this is serious, I don't want to lose it. It's enough I lost Mai when Raid..."
Loved ones, huh? How does it feel to love and be loved?
"Lost, huh?" muttered.
"When I saw you fight, I realized instantly, why would a little boy like you fight so hard against Lein even though you risked dying in that fight, while I am a Hunter and more mature than you even escaped my main duty as a Hunter? That's why I want to be back in the Hunter world."
His case of Uncle Antha was similar to my father, who chose to fight back in the front row after falling apart due to the loss of his family.
"I'll help Lein take care of the city, I'll go to Jakarta to tell Frans, I'll fight again. I've enjoyed this peace enough." Uncle Antha raised his hand, "Demon Gauntlet and Devil Hands have been sleeping too long, they need me to use again to slaughter Monsters."
"I'm inspired by you, how you fought at your young age, I don't want to lose to a kid like you, my pride as a Hunter rank S can't take it. Although I was afraid, if I continue to fear and take refuge, I will never be able to free this world and give a good world to my wife and Rei."
I smiled broadly, "That's how Hunter should think, though afraid, fight that fear and move on, then freedom we can see a little."
Sometimes, I wonder, what made the Hunters retreat from the vanguard and choose to remain in peace?
It was because they were afraid of losing a precious figure to him and were afraid of disappearing from the world, they would definitely want to continue to see the people closest to them smiling and laughing happily, I'm sure my father thought so when he retired.
Now, I understand, not everyone wants to go forward fighting just to finish off the Monsters, but to give freedom and a good world to the people closest to them.
