The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
267. Chevalier Bleu
Esterosa stared at the sea of Monsters before him, the last French fortress was broken through, and his army was left few after half of his army had been slaughtered by the sea of Monsters.
"Is defending France now not what it used to be?" Estherosa closed her eyes, her hands trembling as she thought about it.
His country was almost destroyed, and he could not do much, how could he just calm down?
"I think the words of Heaven that we will fall are true..."
It has been since long ago that the Sky said that some strong Hunters would fall in the day of war, and that is why all Hunters and soldiers were asked to make videos of their last words before the war.
Once the war is over, the videos will be given to the family if a Hunter or soldier is killed, and the videos are returned to the creator if the creator survives.
And Esterosa had made the video, she put it in her room and told the sky something.
"If I die, then give the video to Alteron and watch it together. If Joko's alive, let her watch that."
Esterosa stuck out her sword, the wind blew softly, her bound hair swayed slightly to the wind. It feels so cold...
"Miss general! The enemy is approaching the camp! We can't hold it much longer! Please help!"
Esterosa jumped down from the balcony of an old restaurant then darted down the street, she had heard...
What sounds did he listen to?
The sound of screams, screams, the whirring of bullets, the sound of two metal objects clashing, crying, he also smelled the scent of blood that was very concentrated even though he had just moved a little.
From everything he could capture with his senses, he could deduce one thing... The French are completely cornered...
What he had originally thought happened through the wind he felt was now actually happening...
"Miss general! Help-..."
Esterosa moved faster towards the location he had just marked, which was near the Eiffel Tower, the same location as the first appearance of the Monsters to earth...
There, many Hunters are in difficulty and look fewer in number, indicating that the strength of the Hunter has reduced considerably since the battle began.
He jumped and slashed his sword, saving a Hunter cornered by a black wolf and decapitating it.
"Thank you, ladies..."
"Don't thank me, quickly help the others!" exclaims Esterosa and he darted again, helping another Hunter face his enemy.
With him intervening, at least the battle situation began to side with Estherosa and her army.
"As a result of the small number of Hunters, I am in short supply." murmured Esterosa.
That's right, the Sky had evenly divided all the remaining Hunter troops along with the military soldiers of other countries, but in his calculations, the, the number of Hunters combined with ordinary military forces would be difficult to defend the earth from Monster attacks.
But Sky believes in another Hunter and he hands over the safety of the earth to another Hunter while he will face the enemy leader who is certainly the strongest Monster among the powerful Monsters he has ever faced.

"Damn it..." Esterosa held her sword in trembling, she gazed around with teary eyes.
His army had already been slaughtered, by just one Monster.
He did not even know how the monster slaughtered his troops, all he knew was how the Monster stood in front of him with his hand holding one head, it seemed...
"What's? You're scared even when you just see me?" The monster in front of him just smiled widely then he threw something in his hand in front of Esterosa.
The monster approached, and Esterosa subconsciously walked back quickly, looking as if the Monster was grinning widely.
Estherosa closed her eyes, she was afraid...

"Rosa, if you grow up, what do you want to be?"
"Huh? Why do you ask that? I was a kid, I didn't have to think about the future..."
"Not so, I just want to make sure, do you want to follow in the footsteps of our ancestors, or want to be an ordinary person..."
"Ah, then I want to be a person like uncle and father!"
"Become Hunter?"
"Really! I'll be a strong Hunter and make you proud!"
"Ahahaha, I love your spirit..."
...
"Rosa, Esquede is now on the verge of destruction, you must continue what you have dreamed of for a long time..."
"Grandfather can't say that! Grandpa could definitely teach me more about fighting!"
"What grandfather taught was not about fighting, but it was called fighting to finish off the Monsters..."
"Not kid, it's just a shift so you want to practice hard training. If the time has come, grandfather wants to tell you one thing..."
"What's that?"
"Monsters don't deserve to live in the world, they have to be destroyed..."
...
"Esterosa, Antonius left this thing on you..."
"What's this?"
"Blue Sword, his flagship sword and he said that he had long wanted to see you holding this sword."
SRING!
"Blue..."
"Yes, this sword is the heirloom of the Esquede family, and whoever holds this sword will be an influential person throughout the world and he will be the head of the family of the best military families in Europe."
"Well, I won't disappoint the Esquede family..."

"Huh? Whatchu mean? Of course I'm not afraid..." Esterosa opened her eyes and looked at the Monster with a big smile, "You're not a creature I should be afraid of..."
"Ohohoho, that? How you're so fucking..." The monster raised both hands and smirked, "Then show me your strength!"
Less than a second later, the creature appeared in front of Estherosa and she swung her hand that had turned into a sword.
Estherosa raised her sword and held back the slash, then she threw it out and kicked the Monster.
The monster moved back slightly, and Esterosa instantly launched a quick slash that injured the front of the Monster from the left shoulder to the right waist.
Monsters are now beginning to vary, with their shapes no longer just animals and plants, but a combination of the two and even more demon-like mutations.
Not only that, their abilities also varied, and each movement was based on the results of careful thinking, so facing the Monsters now was the same as facing a human who had a mind.
Estherosa thrust her sword into the chest of the Monster, but the Monster was able to dodge it and brushed off the puncture Esterosa had launched.
The monster raised both hands and swung both hands, then it moved quickly towards Esterosa.
The woman, raised her sword, and just as the Monster was right in front of her, she slashed her sword from top to bottom.
His slash slashed the Monster's body in half, but at the same time, the Monster sword also pierced through his armor and pierced his stomach.
"Damn! I'm off guard!" Esterosa drew her sword and moved backwards, while the monster was already dead with its body split in two.
His concentration decreased slightly as a result of seeing his troops slaughtered right before his eyes, but he managed to overcome it.
He slashed his sword and removed the black blood that enveloped his sword, before he noticed the arrival of several more Monsters.
He glanced slightly, and seeing about four Monsters that looked like the Monsters he had just finished approaching, both of their hands were already holding their respective weapons.
"Oh shit..." Estherosa raised her sword again, "Do I have to die here?"
His stomach was heavily injured and he was bleeding, only to be sure when he would die, about an hour if he did not get help.
He was able to measure so that he would not quickly fall by holding back the rate of discharge of his blood, but before long, it was only an hour.
"An hour is my time." he darted quickly towards the four newly arrived Monsters and slashed his sword, wounding the four Monsters with slight difficulty.
The Four Monsters evaded some of Estherosa's slashes, making Esterosa even more upset.
His gaze grew blurry, his movements were no longer fast, and it did not take long for him to survive, some parts of his body were hit by enemy attacks.
His right shoulder was pierced, then his left arm was slashed until he could feel his bones being hit by his slash, his left back being pierced from behind...
The tough lady fell to the ground, her sword slipping out of her grasp.
"Uh.." his eyes grew blurry, he began to be unable to see anything in front of him.
"Hey see, this man is very difficult to die even though we have been shocked..."
"Not everything is so..."
Estherosa could hear that she was considered a mortal. He smiled faintly at her, "Does Heaven think so?"
He had already felt his hearing decline, before he felt his back being pierced by something many times.
Ah... It was painful not to see the future he wanted...
It makes sense, why are there so many SS-rank Hunters who have fallen today?
