Who hid My Corpse!-Chapter 545: Twenty-two, I’m not going to pull the cart for you anymore!_2
Vic couldn’t say a word, he just remained silent as Bai Wei put on the reins.
"Alright, let’s move." Bai Wei patted his head and then leisurely lay down on the carriage, "I’m ready."
Vic said nothing, just silently pulled the carriage.
Maybe it was last night’s battle that deepened his mutation, or the Hunter’s Blood that strengthened his body. This made him stronger, and now a small carriage was really nothing for him.
But he still felt his steps were heavy.
Especially when he looked at the collapsed houses on both sides of the street and the townspeople apathetically dealing with the bodies of their relatives, this feeling intensified.
He couldn’t help but think to himself.
Even if he inherited the Hunter’s Blood, does that really make him a hunter?
Maybe he is just a monster.
No matter what he does, he can’t change this fact.
His heart felt increasingly heavy, so much that he was nearly suffocating.
But just then, he heard an incredulous shout: "What are you doing?!"
Vic’s heart was instantly in a panic because he recognized the voice’s owner.
Sure enough, when he looked up, he saw Rella standing in front of him, her face full of anger.
Vic panicked even more, unsure how he had come to be in front of Rella when Bai Wei had just said they were going to take a detour.
But before he could think of what to do, Rella was already storming over, her expression matching how she looked last night.
This made Vic involuntarily lower his head, like a child who had done something wrong, his ears seemingly drooping down.
Rella walked up to Vic, raised her stubby little hand, pointed at him, and said angrily, "You lied to me!"
Vic hung his head even lower.
Just when he didn’t know how to answer, Bai Wei’s lazy voice came from behind him: "What did I lie to you about?"
... Huh?
Vic was stunned for a moment, instinctively raising his head, seeing that Rella wasn’t pointing at him, but at someone behind him.
That is... Bai Wei.
"You said he was injured and needed the carriage to get out of town, that’s why I gave it to you." Rella pointed at Bai Wei’s nose, angrily saying, "But is this how you ride a carriage?!"
"Yes." Bai Wei nodded, "Is there a problem?"
"A problem?!" Rella pointed at Vic again, "You make him pull the carriage and ask if there’s a problem? Isn’t he your person? Is this how you people of Rhein treat your own?!"
"Yes." Bai Wei nodded again, "This is how we people of Rhein treat our own, is there a problem?"
Rella was instantly speechless, she obviously had not encountered a match like Bai Wei, her flat chest heaving continuously.
And Vic still didn’t understand what was happening, he looked at Rella with eyes bewildered and fearful: "Miss Rella?"
Rella suddenly turned around to face Vic, then tiptoed and took off the reins on Vic.
"Hey, hey, hey." Bai Wei noticed Rella’s actions and said dissatisfied, "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing?" Rella gritted her teeth and said, "I’m taking this carriage back, not giving it to you!"
"Is it necessary? I paid for it."
"I’ll return all the money to you." Rella directly threw the money on the ground, "Anyway, I just want to take it back! Get off quickly!"
Bai Wei lightly clicked his tongue, but he wasn’t angry, he slowly jumped off the carriage, and then said to the still dazed Vic, "Pick up the money, let’s buy a carriage elsewhere."
Vic instinctively acknowledged, and then he was about to pick up the money.
But just as he bent down, he was immediately grabbed by Rella by the collar.
Clearly, they were such small hands, yet they seemed to possess endless strength, making it impossible for him to bend down.
"He tells you to pick it up, so you pick it up?!" Rella finally started to look Vic in the eyes, "He also made you pull the carriage, and you just continued to pull it?!"
"I..."
Vic still didn’t understand why Rella was angry until Rella almost shouted.
"Do you have any dignity?! You are a person, not a dog! Do you hear me?!"
"Uncle Ryan saved you with his life, you shouldn’t be a dog, shouldn’t be a monster, you should be a person! Do you understand?!"
Vic was completely stupefied.
He looked at Rella’s completely twisted small face, feeling something deep inside him loosen.
"When Uncle Ryan went to save you, I told him not to go, but he said you weren’t a monster." Rella’s body kept trembling, "He said he believed in you and also said if possible, he would like to give his own Hunter’s Blood to you. He said only you could find the truth... So, please, don’t let him down, okay? And don’t make me feel he was wrong, okay?"
"You are not a dog, nor a monster."
"You just want to find your own dog, you just want to become a hunter like Ryan. Don’t think of yourself as a monster, okay?"
Vic opened his mouth, but couldn’t make any sound, just feeling as if his eyes suddenly had sand in them and couldn’t open.
And Rella also seemed to have said all her words, slowly letting go of his hand, stepping back bit by bit.
"That’s it, go find your little dog." Rella said softly, "It’s definitely still alive, definitely still waiting for you."
With that, she didn’t give Vic a chance to respond, turned her head to glare "fiercely" at Bai Wei.
"You despicable Rhein Priest! I won’t let you buy a carriage in this city!" she shouted, "And don’t even think about making him pull a carriage! You people of Rhein don’t treat people as people, but it’s different here! Remember my words, if I find you doing such things again, I will never let you get away with it!"
With that said, Rella left with her carriage, leaving only Bai Wei and Vic standing side by side in place.
"Really, that young lady boss has quite a strong mouth." Bai Wei continued picking at his ear as he said, "What does it mean we Rhein don’t treat people as people... We clearly treat everyone equally, I mean how did I, an Orthodox priest, get lectured by a cultist, tsk tsk tsk."
Then Bai Wei turned to look at Vic.
"What are you standing there for? Let’s go."
Vic didn’t move, he just stared in the direction Rella left, then softly said, "I am not a monster."
"Hmm?"
"I said, I am not a monster." Vic repeated, "I am a person."
"Got it, got it, you are a person."
"I’m not a monster! I am a person!" His tone could no longer be heard with confusion, "I am a person, a hunter, Hunter Vic! Yes, I am Hunter Vic!"
"Alright, alright, I get it, you are a hunter."
"Yes, I’m a hunter!" Vic enthusiastically waved his fist, "So I won’t pull your carriage in the future either!"
"...Is there any connection between these two things? Alright, alright, whatever you want, don’t pull it if you don’t want to."
"No matter what you say, I won’t pull it!" Vic said resolutely.
"Alright alright, you won’t pull it then."
Bai Wei waved his hand dismissively, muttering "intelligent machine crisis," "that little girl boss is really troublesome" as he walked ahead, seemingly looking very troubled.
But when Vic couldn’t see it anymore, a faint smile appeared on Bai Wei’s face.
"Not a monster?"
He said softly.
"Hope you can always remember that."
