Clack, clack…
Nairo obviously noticed Grimm too . She flew towards Grimm after a slight hesitation, looking like a metal ball floating in the middle of the air . The sound of metal chains rubbing against each other could be heard .
“Grimm . ”
In the friction sound of the metal chains, Nairo greeted Grimm calmly .
It was obvious that Nairo had already noticed Grimm when Black Isotta pointed out Grimm’s name before the expedition .
Nodding his head, Grimm told Nairo with an expressionless face, “Nairo, I hereby recruit you to perform a Demon-Hunting mission under me . Hurry up and submit your mission, I will be waiting for you here . ”
Nairo’s eyes flashed and focused on the Honor Badge on Grimm’s Sorcerer Barrier .
There was a long silence .
Grimm couldn’t tell what was Nairo’s feeling, but he couldn’t care less, it was all just rules of the Dark Demon-Hunters .
Suddenly, behind Grimm, a slightly plump sorceress who was recruited by him snorted coldly .
When Grimm turned around, he noticed the sorceress wasn’t the only one who was not pleased . The other Dark Sorcerers were all looking at Nairo in dissatisfaction .
The old sorcerer who was recruited first suddenly asked sarcastically, “Why are you so hesitant? Are you looking down upon the sorcerers like us who are not qualified to lead a mission?”
As he spoke, his skin began to turn translucent, and a light purple aura appeared around him, his eyes became brighter and brighter with an elemental glow .
Within seconds, as the old sorcerer’s skin became translucent, he turned younger at a speed visible to the naked eye . At the same time, his Magic Power increased, and strings of mysterious runes spread from under his robe to his skin,
Every Dark Demon-Hunter grew after going through rounds and rounds of brutal killing since the sorcerer-apprentice period .
Compared with Bright Sorcerers, Dark Sorcerers would only submit to the strong, but also looked forward to constantly challenge the strong and became a strong sorcerer themselves who would be respected by others .
Within every Dark Sorcerer was a cold and unyielding heart .
Grimm stomped the ground hard with his Sabbatic Goat Staff . The skull of the World Lord inadvertently released a trace of its power, and spread in all directions .
Buzz…
It didn’t take long before the agitated old sorcerer’s translucent skin turned back to normal, the magic runes that appeared from his sorcerer’s robe quickly shrank back . He looked at Grimm with astonishment .
The other six Demon-Hunters were also staring at Grimm’s Sabbatic Goat Staff in shock . They were all stunned by the mysterious and overwhelming force of the magic staff .
Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm stared at the old sorcerer and said coldly, “Now… I’m the leader!”
A drop of cold sweat rolled down from the old sorcerer’s forehead . He nodded silently and stopped talking, and completely ceased his Magic Power release .
Grimm scanned the seven people in silence with his red-and-blue eyes that represented ice and fire elements . No matter what they were thinking in their head, at least temporarily on the surface it seemed that they have given in and agree with Grimm’s identity as the team leader .
If Dark Sorcerers wanted to form a Demon-Hunting team, there must be a person to suppress the others by force and be the absolute leader . Otherwise, the Demon-Hunting team would fall apart very soon, and no mission will be accomplished at all .
Grimm already understood this during the regional school war .
After all of that, Grimm looked at Nairo once again . The Mask of Truth perfectly hid Grimm’s expression, he appeared mysterious and calm as always . Tension rose in the air as he continued to stare at Nairo with his two-colored eyes .
Word by word, Grimm said, “You, are now forcibly recruited by me!”
Nairo was also staring at Grimm . Finally, she lowered her head slowly, her golden hair covered the expression on her face . “Alright . I will submit the mission now and come back right away,” she said calmly .
Grimm didn’t say anything further, he just nodded in silence and watched as Nairo headed to the low sorcerer tower in the centre of the square .
“What a Goat Skull Staff . Demon-Hunter Grimm, may I join your team?”
Grimm was shocked by the sudden request . Instinctively, he turned around and looked at the sorceress who asked the question .
‘Hm?’
‘It’s her?’
On the sorceress’s shoulder, a parrot was covering its mouth with its wings and said in disgust, “Sis Lou, that annoying and disgusting myna stinks to death, I don’t want to get close to it . ”
She had golden short hair that only reached her ears and a pair of seductive red lips . She had a petite figure, only a meter and a half tall . The pearl and gem accessories on her forehead was releasing a strong magic wave .
“Leafie, what did I tell you? Have you forgotten?” said the sorceress to the parrot on her shoulder .
“Alright, alright, I am a noble and holy redbud parrot . I won’t bother to argue with that filthy and dumb myna,” said the parrot proudly as it cocked its tail and wrap its wings around its body .
Grimm suddenly rubbed his chin while staring at the parrot strangely . After a few thoughts, he replied the female sorcerer, “Of course, this is the mission scroll . ”
However, Grimm’s eyes were still on the parrot, as if he was thinking about something .
After receiving the mission scroll, the sorceress nodded and said, “Hi, I’m Lou Linman . I hope in the upcoming mission we can…”
Grimm suddenly asked, “Um…Leafie, are you a female redbud parrot?”
“Ah!?”
Lou Linman was stunned for a moment, and the parrot on her shoulder opened its eyes and asked excitedly, “What do you mean, Mister Sorcerer?”
Grimm smiled strangely and said, “Um, hha, nothing, I just think that you are really beautiful . ”
At that moment, a cracked and excited yell from far broken the strange atmosphere .
“Caw caw caw caw! Grimson Beast, attack! Caw caw caw caw caw…”
Grimm almost choked in anger . He glowered at Myna, his elemental eyes glimmered slightly .
‘This fella, did it just say Grimson Beast?!’
At that moment, Myna was standing on a mud monster covered in ice crystals . Laughing with pride and commanding the mud monster under his feet, Myna looked just like a captain of a pirate ship .
The kind of mud monsters from the Burrow World might at most be the same level as knights among humans, not even a Level 1 lifeform . They possessed no combat power at all .
In a space distortion, Grimm summoned Myna to his side .
“Myna, have you forgotten about this? Heheheheh…” threatened Grimm while clenching his teeth .
As Grimm spoke, a bone appeared in Grimm’s hand . He tossed and caught the bone repeatedly, giving Myna who was initially acting triumphantly a shiver .
“Caw caw! Y-young, Young master! This is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”
Myna was really scared, it recalled that miserable, humiliating and awful memory .
Myna’s leg shook as it saw the bone in Grimm’s hand, it almost couldn’t stand properly .
Grrr…
Seeing that its “master” was caught by Grimm, the mud monster suddenly growled like a dog .
Grimm glared at the mud monster coldly, in a few wave space, the mud monster was split into pieces .
“Ah! My Grim…”
Myna wanted to scream, but it immediately recalled something and covered its mouth with its wings, staring with eyes wide opened .
Grimm didn’t really kill the mud monster, he simply split it into several pieces .
Quickly after that, the pieces of the mud monster wriggled towards each other like worms, and formed back into one piece again . It looked at Grimm with a pair of teary eyes, not daring to growl at him again .
The body structure of mud monsters were quite unique, Grimm did some research about them during his sorcerer-apprentice days .
It had both the characteristics of an elemental creature and a creature with flesh and blood .
It seemed like an animal, but had the characteristic of plants which grow by consuming energy from nature . However, it was not a plant as it has the characteristics of an animal .
“Hmph!”
Grimm grunted, place Myna lightly on his shoulder, and introduced it to Lou Linman . “This is my soul companion, Mavrica Nevichy . It is a remaining Steel Emblem Myna from the ancient Sorcerer World . ”
Before Lou Linman spoke, the parrot on her shoulder laughed .
“Hhha! That’s the way to teach this stupid Myna a lesson! Sorcerer Grimm, I really like you . Did you just asked about my gender and said that you are attracted by my beauty? Are you asking me out? Hee hee, I will consider it seriously, dear Sorcerer Grimm . ”
Besides Grimm, the several other Demon-Hunters couldn’t help but look at each other, resisting the urge to laugh .
“Young master! You and the parrot…” Myna looked at Grimm with tears in its eyes . Grimm stared back at Myna and ignored it .
“Leafie! What did I tell you!” Lou Linman corrected the parrot again .
“Alright, alright . Don’t worry, Sis Lou . I won’t bother to argue with this filthy, dumb Myna . ” With that, the parrot turned its head to one side .
At that time, Myna just noticed its “false look-like” from the other day . Initially he wanted to argue with the parrot, but soon recalled the disgraceful situation earlier that had been witnessed by everyone, and it yelled in frustration .
“Grimson Beast, from now on you are called Leaf Beast! Leaf Beast! Show the skill I just taught you!”
From afar, the mud monster raised its hind leg like a dog, and a stream of water came out…
