Chapter 508: The Old Times\' Huntress
-----
With the passing of his mother, the brute Stein had become stronger outside, saving up his feelings and bottling them up, he became cold and silent, of course, that wasn\'t the case for his beloved siblings, all of them, without exception, were the treasures of his life, which he took care of and protected.
However, as the time went on, the Landlord began to ask for pay as he realized he had been completely ignoring this area of the village, and began to quickly profit from the bountiful harvests of the people. Even in Germany, the greed of landlords was endless, and just like it happened to Gustavo in the past, Stein\'s family began to pass through hunger as there wasn\'t enough food in the table to feed so many.
In an act of desperation, Stein began to go hunting, until he brought something to the house, he wouldn\'t come back. That way, he began to bring several rabbits, birds, and anything else he could find around and catch with his strength.
He began to sharpen his hunting skills a bit, and every day, or every two or three days, he could bring a lot of animals to eat, this was of course very exhausting to him, so his siblings began to help him out in the hunting.
But one day as he traveled alone in the forests, he found himself between two mysterious figures, one was a man covered in black robes and the other a woman with silvery armor over her body and a silver blade in her hand, which glistened with holy light!
"Die, demon!" she roared, as she flew towards the black-robbed man and fought bravely, her sword released sparks of light, magical light which Stein had never seen before, but the black-robbed man whose face was covered laughed maliciously, fighting against her might with his very claws, nails that grew to resemble the claws of animals!
"W-What is this…?!"
Stein was left speechless as he saw the supernatural beings fight one another, the woman looked human but the magical powers she wielded were clearly not normal, while the old and sickly pale-white man was malicious in nature and held a strong physical power that shouldn\'t belong in such a body!
CLASH! CLASH! BOOM!
The two battled it off with all their might, but the woman ultimately ended being overwhelmed as the black-robbed old man laughed maliciously!
"Gehehehe! Stupid woman, die!" he laughed, as he conjured black magic, as black tentacles began to entangle around her!
"Aggh!"
"You\'ll become a fine addition to my collection of corpses, yes!" he laughed.
"NO!"
Stein heroically emerged out of nowhere, behind the old man, and used his brute strength to actually kick his back into the ground!
"W-What? GEGGH…!"
BOOM!
"RAAA!"
Stein held a large stone as he threw it over the man\'s head, hitting it constantly!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Uuagggh…! W-Who the heck- NGH?!"
CLASH!
Suddenly, after the fourth hit, the man\'s head splattered into the ground horrendously, thankfully, the black robe protected such an ugly view.
"Hahhh… Agh…! Ugh…! W-What… have I done?!"
Stein began to throw up right there, feeling sick with himself for the beastly act of slaughtering another person cold-bloodedly.
However, the woman, seemed to be fine.
"Thank you… You saved my life. You\'re… just a normal village? Y-You shouldn\'t had seen what happened here… Did you break through the Domain…?" wondered the beautiful blonde-haired knight woman, as Stein felt sickly.
"I… I don\'t know, I just saw you… He looked evil." Said Stein.
"You did god\'s work, son. That man was a bloodsucker. Bloodthirsty bastards that spread across all of Europe like the plague. They kill innocents and drink their blood for sustenance. You killed him by opening his entire skull. No normal person would be able to do this, you\'ve got talent." Said the woman.
"T-Talent? Bloodsuckers? Wait, magic is real?" he wondered.
"It sure is. Now come, we have to leave this place before it destroys itself, I will tell you everything as we go." The woman extended her hand to him, as he took it.
The two walked out of the Domain and then the woman presented herself as Hanna, she belonged to the Hunters Association, a group of people that hunted not just vampires, but they also associated with everything supernatural. They hunted magical beasts, monsters, and more, and kept peace in the society of mortals.
She suddenly paid the kid half of the bounty she got for hunting this vampire, which was 2000 gold coins, enough to live a life of luxury if he wanted!
"T-This much?!" he asked in disbelief.
"Take it boy, if you want to contact me and join me one day, use this." the woman said, as she engraved a little rune into the boy\'s hand, an she walked away…
The boy was left with his sack of gold coins, as he walked back home.
The thing that had happened today shaped his entire life onwards. He used the money to buy a comfortable house in the city, leaving aside the horrid farmer life. His siblings lived in luxury with their family in a humble house, while he intelligently used the gold coins to become a merchant of sorts, buying stuff at cheaper prices and selling it off more costly, he inspected the market and even slowly build up more money this way.
However, ever since he defeated that vampire that he had wondered if he should call her once more one day, and three years had passed since then, but one day, as he was rummaging his things, his shop broke out and a fierce wolf entered!
"You smell good, you\'re a superhuman! Tasty flesh!" roared the fierce creature, jumping towards him and trying to kill him out of nowhere!
Stein battled against the monster with everything he had, showing off the strength he had been born with, which the wolf called a "superhuman"!
At the end, covered in deadly wounds, he defeated the abomination with his fists and his weapons lying around, stabbing its chest and head with silver blades.
After that, he didn\'t knew what to do, desperately calling the woman he had once meet 3 years ago…. And then, that\'s where things started.
