The Retirement Life of the Old Demon Hunter

New Era 1832. The age of the demon hunter has come to an end, as monsters have nearly vanished from existence. Hewitt, the demon hunter, planned to retire early, but what followed was an onslaught of ancient, madness-inducing evil and hellish hymns, the most bewildering old dreams, and the alluring sounds reverberating throughout the stars. Old Gods, secret societies, undefined species from the other end of the galaxy, phantoms within the Time Gap, and the floating world behind the scenes. The undead Dragon King lingers at the edge of the Underworld; blasphemous, otherworldly life defying physics, and Lower Worton's magical reflections of Upper Worton. Hewitt strives to get his retired life back on track, casually exterminating the little insects he encounters along the way.

434. King Arthur's Kingdom

Avalon.

The Sword in the Stone stood before Hewitt.

Deceptive and authentic.

Hewitt asked:

"May I try to pull it?"

Amelie answered:

"You're not the first to ask that."

Amelie gazed at the holy sword with a bright expression:

"I've tried it too. To be honest, when I heard about the legend of King Arthur as a child, I used to imagine that I was the one pulling the Sword in the Stone.

"I think King Arthur left the Sword in the Stone here, hoping for a virtuous and great knight and king to pull it out."

Hewitt glanced at Amelie.

The young man's thoughts were very pure and noble.

Only a morally noble person would genuinely consider the issue from this perspective.

Most people would have greed for the Sword in the Stone.

Amelie naively believed that if someone could pull the Sword in the Stone, then they'd truly possess this sword symbolizing power and kingship.

Hewitt smiled.

Because his thoughts were correct.
