Demon Hunter and His Cabin-Chapter 136 - : Tit for Tat

Chapter 136 -136: Tit for Tat

“Are you talking about that skull?”

Roger thought for a moment, then countered.

But Arlo shook her head, “You should be clear, I’m not referring to that thing.”

As she spoke, she leaned slightly forward, the golden lip ring on her lips reflected a strange light, and her eyes were frighteningly bright.

Roger felt a slight dizziness in his head, and a voice sounded by his ear, he couldn’t make out each word that was transmitted, but his brain felt inexplicably heavier.

At that moment, a warning flared in his heart. Roger’s eyes snapped wide open, a flash of red swept through them, and he took a step forward and roared,

“Get out of my head!”

“Ah…!”

The witch named Arlo let out a muffled groan. She clutched her head and fell backward.

Now that he had regained his senses, Roger finally understood what had just happened, took a few steps forward, and an ominous aura surged from him.

“What were you trying to do to me?”

Roger clenched his fists tightly, unaware that a vein had faintly appeared on his wrist as his anger surged.

“Please calm down, Mr. Roger!”

Linda stood up, her voice was not loud but effectively suppressed Roger’s rage.

“I apologize, but I hope you can believe that this was not the intent of the Hunters Guild.”

Having said that, she swept a stern gaze over Arlo beside her.

“Ms. Arlo, this is the Hunters Guild, not your place, and you were specifically allowed to attend this inquiry as a significant concession. If it weren’t for the Voodoo Queen…”

“Now please leave, you are not welcome here!”

Linda issued the expulsion order without hesitation.

After a few seconds of catching her breath, Arlo also recovered from the backlash of spiritual power, rubbing her forehead, “No, I will not go anywhere until the matter is thoroughly investigated!”

Arlo had been very secretive, but she had not expected that the young Demon Hunter across from her would have such strong spiritual power, which negated her mental disturbance.

Now that she had been discovered, she straightforwardly tore off the facade.

“This matter relates to the legacy of the Voodoo Association, as everyone knows, many years ago, during the hunt for Mansu, although his corpse was left behind, the Voodoo Crown was not found at the scene.”

“That artifact, on par with the black witch robes, has now been traced with great difficulty. That insane woman before she died, he was the only witness, even if he didn’t take it he must know something?!”

Then, she looked coldly at Linda, “If it isn’t him, it’s one of the other two guys.”

“The Demonic Hunter from the Guild?”

“Or the Exorcist?”

“Shut up!”

Linda interrupted Arlo’s speculation.

“Regarding this matter, I believe I have made myself very clear. Moreover, I have also sought the answer through the Divination Dream Ritual.”

“It certainly has nothing to do with them.”

“Perhaps that woman dropped the item on her escape route…”

“Or perhaps, back then, someone obtained the item and chose not to announce it.”

Linda spoke softly of another possibility.

“Stop making unwarranted trouble, the Hunters Guild’s tolerance for you has its limits!”

Linda’s voice grew more assertive.

“Hmmph!”

Arlo snorted with a cold laugh, “I will remember this incident, and I will report back to my mentor exactly as it happened. We’ll see if you can still be as defiant in the face of my mentor’s wrath.”

“And you!”

She turned her gaze towards Roger.

“To think you could resist my mental disturbance, tsk tsk, quite impressive indeed.”

“I’ll remember you!”

There was a cold and venomous flash in Arlo’s eyes.

Yet faced with Arlo’s thinly veiled threat, Roger merely smiled unconcernedly, “I’m beginning to understand what happened.”

“It seems we’ve resolved a lingering issue from years ago for you, yet instead of gratitude, you approach me with such despicable means.”

“Bang!”

Just then, the wooden door to the room was violently pushed open, and Henrik, seething with anger, barged in while being tugged at by two staff members.

“You damned whore!”

He pointed at Arlo’s nose and shouted loudly, “Is this how you repay us?”

“Is this the kind of manners you have?”

“Damn it, I really should blow your…”

“Henrik, who let you in? Get out!”

Seeing Henrik, Linda immediately became incensed beyond containment.

But this time, Henrik did not comply obediently, “Roger is my friend, he’s not one of the Guild’s people, this has nothing to do with him.”

“If you want trouble, come at me!”

Henrik glared at Arlo.

“Look at that ugly mug, still hoping to get your hooks into Roger?”

“Pah!”

Henrik spat on the floor.

“Damn it, you should go take a good look at yourself…”

“Henrik, I said get out!”

Linda’s voice rose, and the whole room seemed to tremble with it, Henrik felt dizzy and nearly fell to the ground.

Confronted with Linda’s man-eating glare, Henrik finally shut his mouth in resentment.

He turned and gave Roger a consoling look.

Leave everything to me.

Roger also smiled.

Knowing someone like Henrik was indeed his good fortune.

“Heh, the Hunters Guild is really quite impressive!”

Arlo sneered, her face turning a pale shade of black with rage, especially when she looked at Henrik. If this wasn’t the Hunters Guild, she would probably have attacked right away.

“Oh right, besides you three, there was another survivor that day.”

Arlo’s eyes flickered with an inexplicable light.

“If I remember correctly, that girl’s name was Amanda, right?”

“She survived a horrifying ritual by sheer luck, and according to procedure, such a normal person should have been sent to the Guild for investigation, right?”

Her tone was calm, but Arlo’s face slowly contorted into something fierce, “Regarding Black Witchcraft and Voodoo Skills, there should be no one more qualified to speak than us.”

“To avoid leaving any hidden problems on the girl and affecting ordinary people, I request a Voodoo investigation on her!”

As she spoke, a ferocious gleam swept over the faces of Roger and Henrik, finally settling on Linda.

“Ms. Linda, my request is within the rules, isn’t it?”

“I think the Hunters Guild should oversee this process and ensure its swift conclusion!”

Linda gritted her teeth, a hint of anger and reluctance flickered across her face, but she couldn’t come up with any objection.

After all, it made sense procedurally.

“Ms. Linda, we need the assistance and supervision of the Hunters Guild; if the girl is harboring an unknown Voodoo curse, that could lead to terrible consequences.”

“So, the Hunters Guild should know what to do, right?”

“Don’t push me too far!”

Linda’s face darkened as if it could drip water.

“Too far?”

Arlo sneered, “If it’s too much, then let them hand over the Crown!”

In Bordeaux City, the influence of the Voodoo Queen was deep-rooted.

But at that moment, a young voice was heard in the room.

“Ms. Arlo, concerning the issue you just brought up, I think there’s no need for that.”

Arlo turned her head sharply.

The speaker was Roger.
