My Last Hunt

Chapter 156: Quest For Three Stones (7)

Quest For Three Stones (7)

Opus;

Bunch of hunters 

Qao was little surprised to know this fact. If the whole world was free to become hunter and learn hunting then why Blood Hunters were kept limited to their place. 

"There are only three tribes of Blood Hunters and we are not allowed to enter in the Hightown. Well, there is a reason for that. Years ago Blood Hunters were allowed to advance like normal hunters but one of the blood hunters had had some evil ambitions in his head and tried to imbibe against the rules. It was strictly prohibited back then by the Hunter Monarch and when the crime was committed; the hunter was killed immediately resulting later binding restrictions for all blood hunters to never appear at Hightown." Wuza explained and sighed. 

He was told this story by one of the elder of the tribe when he insisted that he also wanted to venture Hightown and all parts of the seven continents. He pitied that forefather for committing such thing and creating troubles for the descendants but what can be done now. 

He was bound to live under the tribes and then grow old and die one day without hazarding the world to learn new things. Qiao listened and equally got shocked; it must be difficult for many young blood hunters of the tribe to not even be able to see and explore anything. If they were given chance they might become strength of the Hightown and places where normal hunters were afraid to proffer; the blood hunters might bring harmony there or hunt the invulnerable monsters. 

"If this is the case then you will definitely come along with me. I will make sure that you advance just like normal hunters and abide all the rules set for the blood hunters." Qiao resolutely announced and this time Wuza was shocked. "Brother Qiao, they would also stop your path if you bring along a blood hunter." He warned because he did not want to create trouble for this normal hunter. 

"I have heard; it had been many years since the last Hunter Monarch disappeared and the most part of the seven continents are under threat of stronger monsters. If the Hightown still kept the restrictions for the blood hunters then the normal hunters might not be able to fight back alone against the monsters." Qiao reasoned. From all the information he collected until now; he could tell that threat was lurking everywhere. 

Even if he does not consider about the monsters then there was a human monster in the shadows waiting for the right time. He was thinking about the wicked hunter; from his tone he could easily tell his ambitions which were not as simple as to just suck the blood of some rare monster. 

Wicked hunter was definitely dreaming to rule this world in his own way which can be predicted by a sincere and honest hunter without trouble. His ambitions were more dangerous than a blood hunter. No matter what; a blood hunter can never increase the years of his life and decline like a normal human but a Hunter King has several ways to resort for increasing the life span. 

This was the weakness of the blood hunters of this world. These vampires can taste the unlimited power but because of limitations they live shorter than a normal hunter. A normal level five hunter can live two hundred years while level seven or eight can live more than three hundred years. Life span of hundred years increase with every next level after level seven and stops when the hunter decide to retire. The retirement solely depended on the end of youthful and peak years. 

For example if a hunter was able to reach on level seven at seventy years of age then he could live the next one hundred youthful years and if reached level eight in next hundred years then he could exult next two hundred years of youthfulness at the premise that he did not get any fatal injury during battle against any monster after level seven which was most of the time inevitable.

Qiao was sure that the blood hunters were given chance they would prove helpful in maintaining the balance of the power in this world which would dwindle greatly if an evil Hunter Monarch appeared. 

"Are you sure brother Qiao?" Wuza was looking with wide eyes. The promise was simply too much; he does admire the ambitious nature of this normal hunter but to promise such thing was really gutsy. "A real man never fears to show guts when time comes." Qiao sounded firm and strong willed. He has made his mind to bring along the blood hunter for several reasons; first he was impressed from the nature of this blood hunter, second he wanted to support all those who has sincere ambitions and make a team in case the wicked hunter found a way to defeat the Hunter Kings and tried to destroy this world, third all the hunters should be given chance to prove themselves rather than to wait for the worst. 

Most of the Hunter Kings has announced that the wicked hunter got killed by some rare monster years ago and he would never come again to destroy the present peaceful pace of the world but it was not true and only Qiao was aware of it.

Outside the wilderness; a bigger team was surrounding a strange monster. It was one of the largest in size twenty feet big and unruly. The team consisted on two huntress and four hunters, they were all level five and very enthusiastic to hunt this monster which was also level five just the bigger size and the beastly aura was advantage of this monster. This monster was caught because it was looking for a target to kill and then absorb the stone from other monster after killing it. All races of monsters have their stipulations of attaining levels and this one was among unique though apparently it looked normal but the size can definitely attract the hunters.
