"Hoo… ha…"
Wen Wen coughed raggedly, huddled in a corner, a clear scratch mark on his neck with blood dripping down to soak his shirt.
It was inflicted by a woman's fingernails.
"I just wanted to be an ordinary detective, why am I being hunted by something like that…"
"But…"
"Heh heh, vampires really exist in this world, and she's quite pretty."
A wisp of bloody mist flashed in Wen Wen's eyes, and he twitched, forcefully suppressing that crimson hue.
He was fortunate he hadn't lingered at the mental hospital he'd scouted earlier, from which everyone had mysteriously vanished overnight.
Later, Wen Wen found a skilled psychologist who suggested observing his mental state for a while. Thus, he decided to take on a case in the city to pass the time.
Originally, he only needed to catch a petty thief who broke into houses, but while pursuing the culprit, he stumbled upon his target being pinned down and drained of blood by a black-haired woman.
Wen Wen immediately took action, barely escaping the scene, but the female vampire pursued him relentlessly.
One chasing, one evading, three days had passed in the blink of an eye.
The female vampire’s eyes seemed capable of hypnotizing people, but her hypnotic ability was ineffective on Wen Wen, perhaps due to his mental condition.
These three days of intense thrill had placed Wen Wen in an extremely euphoric state, his lips curling upwards involuntarily.
At this moment, a woman carrying a bag passed by, glanced at Wen Wen, let out a shriek, and fled screaming.
It was no fault of the woman; Wen Wen’s appearance was truly terrifying. Sud an novels.
He was wearing a white coat, his torso stained red with blood, and a contorted smile on his face, making him look like a deranged murderer.
Wen Wen chuckled eerily, shook his head, and moved to a new hiding spot.
This hiding would not allow him to escape the female vampire’s senses; she could track him by his blood. However, it would delay her finding him. Each time Wen Wen changed hiding spots, he rested for no more than half an hour; any longer, and he would be caught by the vampire.
Moreover, it was precisely because the female vampire could locate him by his blood that Wen Wen could lure her to a specific location.
Whether she was a supernatural being or not, Wen Wen was not one to only take hits without retaliating.
Yesterday, during a chase, Wen Wen had also managed to raid a church and steal quite a few things…
Five hours later, Wen Wen slumped against the wall of a bare room, seemingly having lost the ability to escape due to excessive blood loss.
The door was kicked open, and the well-built female vampire sauntered in, licking her lips as she looked at Wen Wen and said, "This is the first time I've encountered such a troublesome ordinary human. Your taste must be exquisite. If all humans were as difficult as you, I’d go hungry."
Wen Wen weakly replied, "It's also the first time I've been chased so miserably, but if all monsters were like you, this world would be too dull."
With that, Wen Wen yanked a rope behind him, as if activating a switch.
In the next instant, several ropes mixed with steel bars bound the female vampire tightly. These ropes were secured firmly in solid positions with nails, making it difficult for even a vampire’s strength to break free immediately.
Wen Wen, who had been listless, suddenly sprang to life, grabbing a water gun and drenching the female vampire. The water gun was filled with holy water, which greatly weakened vampires, causing her body to emit a pungent white smoke.
Then, Wen Wen produced a thick needle as thick as an arm and began to draw blood from the female vampire…
A few minutes later.
The female vampire was suspended in mid-air, wrapped several times with garlic. Wen Wen, with a sinister grin, occasionally stabbed her.
He ignored her curses, simultaneously using his phone to relay the information.
Since monsters existed, organizations to deal with them must also exist. By relaying the message now, someone should come looking for him.
These days spent being chased by the female vampire, though often on the brink of death, had provided Wen Wen with a long-lost thrill. The feeling of playing with life and death made his scalp tingle with exhilaration.
That's right, Wen Wen intended to join that monster-hunting organization. He was no longer content with being an ordinary person; he wanted to enter this mysterious world!
After the vampire incident, the thought of Wen Wen returning to catching petty thieves and ordinary people seemed utterly boring.
"I, an ordinary person, caught a monster. That should be of some use to that organization. If I stay in that organization for a long time, I should have a chance to obtain supernatural powers."
After waiting for another half-day, two figures appeared at the door of the bare room.
One was only 1.2 meters tall but as stout as a bundle of muscles, while the other was 2 meters tall but seemed as if he would be blown over by a gust of wind.
The two looked at Wen Wen in surprise and said, "You caught this vampire?"
Wen Wen flashed a brilliant smile, "That's right, I caught her…"
…
After that, Wen Wen, as he wished, joined the Hunter Association and became an assistant.
Six months later, he obtained a magical flute that could summon a disaster-level giant snake when blown. With that flute, Wen Wen officially became a demon hunter.
Two years later, Wen Wen was captured by a small, clandestine organization.
After enduring various tortures, he awakened his supernatural powers, and in a state of uncontrolled rage, he killed everyone in the stronghold of that hidden organization!
Afterward, Wen Wen did not return to the Hunter Association. He left a letter and began to wander in the Huafu District.
When he returned three years later, he had found a way to control his abilities, successfully passed the Wanderer assessment, and become a Wanderer.
Another ten years passed. Wen Wen experienced countless hardships and dangers, faced death numerous times, and slew countless monsters, becoming an experienced high-tier demon hunter.
He had even married a wife five years ago. The woman was not particularly beautiful, but she could tolerate Wen Wen’s eccentric personality and did not bore him.
They had a son, who was now three years old…
On this day, Wen Wen had the opportunity to travel to the Hunter Association headquarters, boarding the Sky Curtain Giant Whale.
Everything here felt novel to him. After a few days of waiting, Wen Wen followed the guidance of a cabbage-like person into a hole within the giant whale. Under the guidance of a one-eyed creature, he sat on a hot spring and slowly immersed himself…
A moment later, Wen Wen opened his eyes and found himself in a silver space.
The sky shimmered with silver ripples, which should have been the surface ripples of the hot spring. And across from him stood a figure wearing a black trench coat, appearing to be himself from over a decade ago.
Wen Wen shook his head, massaged his temples, and a sudden realization flashed through his mind:
"So that's how it is…"
