Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 93 Demon
"Since you know all this, why don't you report it?"

Venata was silent for a moment and then asked.

"You have the power to end this, why don't you do it?"

"You still don't understand." Old Lynch said sadly. "What can reporting achieve? It doesn't make the victim's situation better. It's meaningless to punish the criminals."

"The Nighthawks and the Mandated Punishers will make arrangements for the unemployed female workers. Backlund never lacks opportunities."

Venata replied.

"Honestly, you are so naive sometimes that it's ridiculous."

Old Lynch was so angry that he picked up his cane and slammed the ground. "If those people behind the door can reintegrate into society, do you think I have any reason to hesitate..."

Having said this, he suddenly covered his mouth.

"Damn it, you're trying to trick me!"

He stared at Venata with fury, like an angry old dog sharpening his claws in the sand.

"Hunter is very good at setting traps, including verbal traps, of course."

Vinata put away her casual gaze and stared straight at old Lynch.

"So, what's going on? Backlund is a tolerant city, where both good citizens and villains like me can have their own place. In other words, the situation there is already very serious, so serious that you think the victims will be humanely destroyed as soon as they are discovered?"

Vinata moved in small movements along the edge of a fan, putting pressure on old Lynch.

"Stop guessing!"

Old Lynch's face turned pale and blue, and suddenly he raised his cane and pointed it at Vinata.

"Well, you are a little clever." He spat on the ground, "but that's all. Now give me a clear answer, tell me you won't tell anyone what happened there and let those poor people live out their lives in peace, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

Venata asked without showing any weakness.

"Otherwise, I will give you a potion that will make you completely forget what happened today. Of course, you might forget for a few years, after all, this medicine is not very accurate."

Old Lin Qi's voice suddenly turned cold, and the regret and anger in his words just now disappeared. He seemed to have withdrawn from his own emotions in an instant, making himself extremely calm.

"Really? I'd like to try it."

Winata's hand slowly reached to the side of her calf, where the sheepskin sheath of the meat saw was tied.

Then, the two of them moved almost at the same time. Old Lynch reached to his waist with his free hand and took out two test tubes containing medicine. With his other hand, he swung his cane forward, trying to force Venata back.

However, Vinata's movements were faster than his. The blazing white fire stream appeared again, and Vinata turned into a flame, and rushed directly in front of Old Lynch, engulfed by the scorching flame.

Old Lynch obviously hadn't expected that this young girl had already entered the middle level, and for a moment he was a little flustered. Before he could swing his cane, Vinata blocked it with her arm, and the meat saw in Vinata's hand stabbed straight into Old Lynch's neck.

At the critical moment, old Lynch threw the test tube towards Vinata's face, then fell backwards suddenly, avoiding Vinata's blade, and fell to the ground in a strange posture.

Just as Venata was about to chase, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine. After being promoted to the middle sequence, she had some ability to sense danger, so she quickly stepped on the wall and did a backflip, trying to avoid the follow-up attack.

It must be said that this decision saved her life. The moment Old Lynch fell backwards, the waist of his worn fur coat split open, and a black and red thing shot out at a very fast speed, brushing past Vinata's shoulder and punching a small hole in the wall with white smoke. When the thing flew past her, Vinata could smell the smell of rotting flesh and blood.

"what is that?"

Vinata looked at the black hole on old Lynch's body with some doubt as he slowly stood up.

"Oh, damn..."

There was no joy on old Lynch's face after surviving a disaster. On the contrary, a strong emotion surged on his face, that of fear and sadness. Vinata could smell the fear.

"Franky, go back and be obedient. You are not needed here..."

Old Lynch didn't even look at Vinata, but just whispered a quick request to the creature hidden in the hole exposed by the deformed part of his waist.

After a moment of silence, a strange voice came from Old Lynch's waist and abdomen. It was in Loenese, but with a hint of filth.

"Franky is hungry, Franky doesn't want to go back!"

"I'll prepare it for you when I get back. It doesn't taste good..."

Beads of sweat were already appearing on Old Lynch's forehead. It was obvious that there was a problem in the communication between him and the creature living in the hole around his waist.

Vinata could have taken the opportunity to slip away, but she was afraid that old Lynch would not be able to control the creature and let it escape to the street not far away, so she stopped again after having already begun to sneak away.

"Franky wants it now!"

The voice was obviously a little annoyed, and old Lynch's domestication obviously had little effect.

Then, the clothes around old Lynch's waist were completely torn open, revealing his deformed spine, leaving a hole in his waist. In that hole, a toad-like creature squatted.

It has three red horns on its head, flashing a strange and filthy fluorescence. Its body is dark red, and bubbles are constantly emitting from it like rolling lava.

"As you can see, I am only a Sequence 8 'Beast Tamer' and cannot completely control this creature. After all, I didn't raise it, and it's not even a complete Extraordinary creature."

Old Lynch said with a complicated expression.

“You seem to be moving very fast on the path to becoming a Beyonder.” Old Lynch shook his head. “But it’s a pity that I didn’t want to kill you. Now that you’ve awakened it, I don’t have the final say on this matter anymore.”

Venata did not answer, but tightened her grip on the meat saw and took a deep breath. Then, she shook her finger at the demon toad provocatively.

The toad jumped off Lynch's body in anger and suddenly opened its mouth. This time, Vinata clearly saw the long object that had just shot out from Lynch's waist. It was the toad's tongue.

After noticing the penetrating power of the tongue just now, Vinata did not hastily use a fireball or a meat saw to block it. Instead, she dodged sideways and quickly condensed a walnut-sized fireball in her hand.

Sequence 6 demons are indeed very powerful for Venata, but they are not absolutely invincible.

An old saying in Feysac: Only those who hunt wild beasts can be called hunters. No hunter would boast about catching a rabbit!
