Night Crow Master Chapter 19

Chapter 19: 19
evening .
“Hey, boy, go and pick up some branches and come back . Remember, dry ones that can burn!” Hope’s voice sounded in the rear .
“Know, know!” Said Yat in a loud voice .
Then he stepped forward and walked towards the forest .
Looking at art’s figure gradually away, the people of the gray wolf mercenary regiment actually put down their work .
Sheridan looked at the crowd, then turned to Sanger and said, “Captain, let’s start now?”
“Well . ” Sanger, leaning against the tree trunk, nodded, but there was a voice from his head .
As soon as soli looked up, she saw a crow perched on a branch, and immediately recognized its identity: “it’s the trash boy’s pet . ”
“Why is it here?” Hope picked up a stone and threw it away . The crow flew up, dodged the attack and stopped on another branch not far away . “Damn it, how can it be so flexible?”
Soli snorted, apparently laughing at him .
“All right . ” Sheridan looked at the black crow doubtfully . He felt that something was wrong in his heart . But when he saw the other party stop, he was just combing his feathers . He did not care about it . “We need to go through the melancholy forest this time . You all know the danger of melancholy forest . ”
He stretched out his hand at hope, and hope took out the map again, except that Sheridan peeled the fur away from the place where art had just seen it .
Some thickness of fur, after being unfolded, presents another pattern .
Sheridan squatted on the ground, pointing to the pattern on the fur: “this is what we’re going to do this time . ”
“We’ve already ruled out a few of the places marked above, and now there are only the last two, melancholy forest and Gloria forest . ” Sheridan’s finger moved, pointing to a few small black spots on the map that looked like dirt .
“How can we get in the glora forest?” Soli shrugged her shoulders . “It’s a place where even the Apocalypse dare not enter at will . ”
After going through the low, middle and high position, it is the Apocalypse stage, which is called “official” rank by noble witches .
The name “Apocalypse” is spread from the church, such as Apocalypse knight, apocalypse bishop and so on .
Compared with “formal” which is the most common prefix, professionals are more willing to accept “Apocalypse” which is more colorful and pleasant to hear .
“Yes, it’s a dangerous place . Ten years ago, a large foreign mercenary group broke into the forest of golora, and only one person came out and died within two days . ” Hope also shook his body . “I’d rather give up than go into the grove . I’d like to sleep with dickery a few more times . ”

“Forget the oriole . ” Sally glanced at him in disgust . “It’s disgusting . ”
“How can an ugly person like you know about dickery . . .
” enough! ” Sanger’s deep voice sounded .
“Well, listen to you . ” Hope shrugged his shoulders, and Sally stopped talking . Nortonk, next to him, laughed soundlessly as he saw their reaction .
“Sheridan, are you sure that thing really exists?” said Thorndike, who has been silent for a long time
They have spent a year and a half running around for this thing .
“I’m sure!” Sheridan raised his right hand with a serious face . “This is the message I took out of the noble’s mouth and tortured for ten days! Ten days to get this information out, you need to know how dangerous it is to deal with a wizard, even if he is just a junior apprentice . ”
“Perhaps he deceived you?” Sally turned her mouth . “You know, in order to make him lose his vigilance, I have sex with him . He told me a lot of lies . ”
Hearing her words, Sheridan’s face was not very good: “after he opened his mouth, I had been torturing him, and after several times I got the same information . . . ”
the implication is that the authenticity is relatively high .
Hope looked around: “what if I don’t find it this time? You don’t really want to go to Gloria forest, do you? I’m not going . ”
“If it doesn’t work this time, spread the news . ” So many failures, Sheridan in the heart also some uncertainty, “the last time, the last time to do this . ”
“Well, if you can really be extraordinary . ” After seeing hope nodding, Sheridan looked at the others .
Other people have no opinion .
“Transcendent” is an absolute temptation .
These professionals, in the eyes of ordinary people, are also very powerful .
However, they also know very well that they can’t compare with the extraordinary just by exercising their own strength .
Maybe, they are good at swordsmanship, but . . . How about the other side’s excellent swordsmanship and holding extraordinary power?
Maybe they have extraordinary bowing skills, but . . . What if the other side is the same and can shoot arrows with extraordinary power?Two years ago, hope overheard the news of “treasure” from a failed aristocrat who was kicked out of succession .
In order to confirm the news, not only did soli sleep with the nobleman for several months and gain trust, but they also paid a lot of price in other places .
By accident, their plan to listen for information was leaked by soli, who was talking in her sleep .
Then, unwilling to give up the opportunity, the gray wolf mercenary group did not kill, but chose to kidnap the noble .

As long as 20 days of torture, let the failed aristocrat spit out all the news, and then buried in a corner .
Since then, they have followed the map and started looking for places .
“Sheridan, in the past few times, we sacrificed the flesh and blood of horses and other low-level demons . How about sacrificing human beings this time? Just use that kid . ”
Sheridan squinted: “OK, it’s the last time anyway . Play big . ”
“So that’s settled?” Hope frowned . They were not good people and didn’t think much about human life .
“Yes . ” Sheridan spread out his hands . “Several times ago, although we didn’t get the result, but what is that thing, you all know . It’s definitely the sacrifice ceremony of the devil or the devil . Through sacrifice, people can exchange strength, can’t they? Like the boy with the black bird, I think it’s a good material
Looking at the silent crowd, Sheridan decided to add another fire: “what are you still hesitating about? Besides this method, do you have any other ways to be extraordinary? Holy See? That group of guys don’t treat us as demons, devil purification is good, we have been hiding in the church place . Wizard? Do experiments? If you want to be a bloated boar with pus all over your body, I don’t object to it
Next to soli said: “how do you know that if you exchange power from the devil, you won’t become a monster?”
“Do you have any other way?” Sheridan growled, “as for the changeless monster, haven’t we met a demon warlock? What do they look like monsters, apart from being grumpy? As for the devil warlock? Those guys are more handsome and beautiful! Just like those witches
Warlocks who use demonic power are violent and impulsive, and disobey the rules . However, there is no change in appearance .
The warlocks who use the devil’s power are cunning and insidious, but they are handsome and beautiful in appearance .
Compared with the magicians, the blue blood nobles who hold the power of witches are also beautiful and handsome, and the stronger they are, the more so . People who do not like nobles are called “blue blood demons” secretly .
It’s just that they’re not the real devil power .
The reason is – the Holy See .
The Holy See’s “power of light” has a strong lethality for demons and demons . For devil warlocks and devil warlocks, if they touch the holy light, they will suffer .
Witches, on the other hand, do not suffer any pain when they are exposed to the power of the light . Even some witches can master the power of light .
The Vatican called these wizards who mastered the power of light as “lost” and said they should have been in the arms of the holy light .
People’s reverence for the royal power and the divine power seem to be that the nobles have substantial ruling power over the people, while the Holy See occupies half of the spiritual rule . People believe more if the Vatican says so .
Hearing Sheridan’s words, the crowd was silent . Before they began to exercise themselves, they all went to the Vatican and tried to become priests or knights . However, they had no qualifications and could not enter the holy see at all .
If not, they will not rely on physical and technical exercise to become professionals in this way .
The extraordinary professional and the ordinary professional are two completely different concepts .
Even if they go to the Holy See, they still can’t become knights, let alone become priests . If they have tried to contact with demons and demons, the only result is “purification” .
As for the wizard?
It is true that some people will turn to witches, but most of them will disappear in the end, or become monsters after the wizard’s experiment, and can no longer appear in the world openly .
Those who did not become monsters, most of the body with a variety of diseases, not many years before death .
It’s better to deal with demons than with witches .
If we make a ranking in the minds of ordinary professionals, they are basically –
First: become a member of the Holy See and become a natural transcendent
Second: trade with demons and Demons
Third: ordinary professionals
Fourth: join the wizard
hope mumbled a few words: “OK, just try it once . . . Unfortunately, I still want to get from that boy Those who want money . . . . “
” there will be opportunities to make money in the future . ” Sanger glanced at him and looked at Sheridan . “This is the last time, the last chance . “Then, his eyes on the people turned around: “all right?”
The people looked at each other and did not speak at last .
“That is to say yes . ” Sanger nodded and decided, “Sheridan, it’s the same as before . When you find your destination, it’s for you . ”
“OK . ” Sheridan nodded . Then he looked at Sally and hope . “Don’t mess with that kid until you find a place . Don’t let him run . ”
“Bang . . . ” soli turned her head, a little upset, but did not refute, it seems that she agreed .
“OK, I’ll take good care of him . ” Hope nodded playfully .
They did not notice that the black crow on the tree flashed a trace of humanity in their eyes .

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.

8 207Sailor Moon Silver Legacy
A gritty and dramatic new series of Naoko Takeuchi's Sailor Moon!🌙 Following the defeat of Galaxia & Chaos, peace returns to Earth for a time, until one fateful day, when the unthinkable happens. Five years later, we start to learn how our heroines have been coping with their tragic loss, and what really happened that day. When a new evil threatens the planet, can the Sailor Soldiers find a way to put aside their feelings, and come together to face it? Or will Earth fall to darkness?

It's a brand-new, canon compliant story about the characters so many of us grew up with and still love (even if we're embarrassed to admit it)! While primarily a faithful sequel to the original 90s anime series, the story also incorporates elements from the original manga, the Crystal reboot anime, and the live-action adaptation, as well as feedback from Sailor Moon SubReddit members. This is all combined with fixes to odd translations, the best aspects of the English/Japanese versions, and fun new ideas, to create what I hope will be a consistent and satisfying fan experience.
