The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
82. Obviousness
It had been two days since my grandfather came home, and all that time he kept telling me to hold the Black Fire Sword, wherever I was, on the grounds that I had to adjust to that black sword.
Even though I had already said that I was used to holding a sword that felt light, my grandfather still told me to carry it, even when I was sleeping though. Strangely enough, my grandfather...
"Grandfather, can I put the Black Fire Sword in its place? I can't sleep with a sword in my bed?" It took me two days to prepare myself to say this, not to be underestimated...
"No."
As expected, asking my grandfather to agree to it is not easy!
"For if your current flagship sword is the Black Flame Sword, throw away the thought that the Demonic Dragon Sword is your sword." my grandfather replied while drinking a glass of milk.
I scratched my head, "How is it? Wouldn't I, grandpa wouldn't have a sword?"
"The Black Flame Sword will no longer be of any use in grandfather's hands." My grandfather closed his eyes, "I think you're an adult and should begin to accept reality..."
So according to my grandfather, I've never accepted reality, have you?
"What truth?" I ask, it's not polite to think so about parents...
"Everything about what happened at the last fight..."
"What's that?" I asked, "Does the burst of purple smoke that the Serpent Lord unleashed have a certain effect?"
"Hmm? You knew?" my grandfather looked at me lethargic, not sharp as usual, "Where are you?"
"At least more than a week ago all the televised broadcasts aired the final fight between the SS rank Hunters against a snake that the Flame Emperor thought was the Serpent Lord, the Dragon Lord's most trusted subordinate." answer me honestly.
My grandfather closed his eyes, "Yes, you're right, the last boss of the Icelandic Raid is a Serpent Lord that's very difficult to finish off, to deploy all Hunter rank SS who participate in the Raid and if five armored aircraft to do it."
I shudder to hear it, The Serpent Lord monster is really that strong? To exert a force that exceeded the SS rank Hunter to finish him off?
According to my grandfather many months ago, the armored plane had the greatest combat power in the frontline troops, and was touted as the equivalent of five Hunter rank SS because of the enormity of the power it possessed.
If it was up to deploying five armored planes the other was equivalent to five Hunter rank SS, then at least the strength of the Serpent Lord was SSS rank, it was possible...
"Your theory is fine, too, son, after you have read a little book..." Zon laughed off.
"That's it, huh?" my grandfather smiled faintly, "Maybe grandfather will tell you from the treatment alone..."

New Washington, United States, a week more than two days ago...
"The condition of the Defenders and Strikers is the most severe, their skin is most contaminated with deadly toxins compared to others, although Leonard is in the front position, the most, he was still able to survive and the poison was not spread too much due to wearing thick armor, but the problem was Star grandfather, Oga grandfather, Yao grandfather, Yun grandmother, Vigo grandfather, and Mark Wei..."
"How are they doing?" frans asked, "Is it okay?"
"Not okay." replied the doctor, "I'll explain one by one..."
"Grandfather Oga suffered a fracture that could not be cured by natural means or by medicine because a strange cell locked the growth of his bones, so he would not be able to fight again for a long time."
"Grandfather Yao held back the snake's mouth for too long with her wand, as did Vigo's grandfather, the case of the two currently being the same, which was contaminated with liquid poison that flowed into their skin and permeated. Coupled with the poison smoke that they had accidentally inhaled before, their condition was extremely severe, surpassing that of Star grandfather."
"Grandmother Yun repeatedly inhaled the poison gas created from burning poison smoke with the fire she created. The poison gas is inhaled into the lungs and makes lung cancer that has reached the final stage, which we cannot cure..."
"Mark Wei was severely injured, the poison had already spread widely in his body in a short period of time, and it was estimated that the rest of his life would only be one more year if he saw the rapid movement of the poison.
Tom, Frans, William, Esterosa, Jenny, John, Yen Jiu, and Yuuki who heard it could only stoop down, even though they had struggled so far, but the pay was too expensive, the power of the Hunters will decrease considerably...
"Perhaps, this is because their actual old physique cannot receive severe injuries, and once they are severely injured, the effect is terrible." the doctor said again, "I'm sorry I was too stupid..."
"Is there really no other way to recover them?" yuuki asked, "I don't want the chief lying on the bed..."
Her tears trickled down, and everyone understood that Yuuki had no one but Oga by his side, who already thought of him as his own grandson.
Esterosa grabbed Yuuki's shoulder and grabbed him while patting him on the shoulder, "Calm down, don't cry, men can't cry..."
Well, Yuuki originally wanted to cry, but because in front of him there were many people and he himself was a S rank Hunter who was always famous by his might, he should not cry, he should not cry, but unfortunately he could not hold it any longer, he ended up crying.
The entire corridor of the hospital was filled with sobs of Yuuki the vice-chairman of EasternDragon, and finally, people knew that Yuuki was ultimately just an eighteen-year-old who had little experience of the world.
The doctor walked away after delivering the results of his examination, and after the doctor entered a room, William clenched his hand and hit the wall.
"Damn! If only we were stronger!" william's face showed a bad mood and was filled with anger, perhaps even Estherosa was the first time she saw William's angry face after years of being next to her.
"If only I were stronger..." Tom clenched his hand, until the veins of his hand were seen, "I don't need to make you help me and increase the number of casualties."
The two strongest Hunter organization leaders were in a slump, and inevitably, their subordinates had to calm them down in various ways.

"Ap-?" uncle Zon and I were silent to the story of my grandfather who said that he was said to have experienced high levels of poisoning that is difficult to cure with current knowledge.
"You believe that grandfather's current age is five years away?" my grandfather smiled with relief, "In the last five years of grandfather's life, grandfather will teach Sky many things, grandfather will not go again..."
"Langit, your grandfather was very smart to make people sad..." Zon was heard crying, "Tell him to be serious and don't lie..."
"Is that a lie, cake?" I asked slowly, "Answer if it's all a joke..." And the answers I didn't want I got.
"Grandfather doesn't lie, there's five more years for grandfather to teach you things, and when those five years have arrived, maybe you'll go on to become a Hunter, progress against many Monsters, and then you'll go on, while grandfather will lie on the ground forever..."
My eyes seem to be crying, do I have to go through this? I don't think I can take it yet...
"If that moment comes, try to always look ahead, face all the obstacles that exist, never look back and lament your past. Make your life purpose your reason for living..."
"Live with pride, Sky Satria the Knight of Heaven..."
