Durin's Diary

Chapter 827 Opinions
Du Lin is being fed by his old mother. He didn't have such a good thing in his previous life, which makes Du Lin cherish it even more in this life.

As for the hunters - it is said that the most experienced hunter, Lao Sangkui, will arrive today, so Du Lin is not in a hurry.

"Don't drink tea and read the newspaper at the same time, Du Lin. This is a bad habit." The mother's instructions came from the counter. Du Lin put down the newspaper obediently, picked up the tea and took another sip.

"Much better now." The mother said as she placed the cut meat pie in front of Du Lin: "Good boy, you can start eating now."

I can see that your mother is feeding the pigs.

Eleven sighed as he looked at the meat patties piled up like a mountain on the plate.

·Hey, as a mother, don’t I have three major feelings? I feel that my son is hungry, I feel that my son is cold, and I feel that my son has learned bad things.

Daju was inspired to write this.

While showing off his meat pie, Du Lin praised Daju's speech.

A rare harmony between doctors and patients.

Durin, the old dwarf and the old human came up.

Following Eleven's reminder, Du Lin turned his head and noticed that two old men, Old Stone Hammer and George Winter, were walking up.

They are well-known veterans in the hunter world, and like the old Sang Kui they are waiting for, they are the only three remaining veterans.

At a time when the average age of hunters is less than 60 years old, these three centenarians are also qualified to be respected by all hunters and hunting masters.

"Sir Du Lin, old Sang Kui is here." The two old guys said as they stood at the stairs.

Then a well-dressed, well-mannered mixed-race man came up.

A very handsome old man.

Daju said in an appreciative tone.

Eleven starts with the old man’s attire.

This guy has good taste in clothes.

In Durin's eyes, this white-haired half-blood had both human appearance and elf features. It was said that when he came, he was wearing a full set of weapons, and the mechanical bow was so heavy that even a tall young man couldn't lift it.

At that time, his protective gear was stained black by blood.

And now, this true old hunter was standing on the marble floor on the third floor of the Everburning Nest. It could be confirmed that his hair had been washed and tied with silk, and his sideburns had been carefully shaved with a knife.

Although a bearded elf looks strange, it is a common occurrence for half-bloods, and his eyebrows are long, which is consistent with the characteristics of an elf. It's a pity that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes silently betray their owner, betraying the old man's age and half-blood origin to observers like Durin.

On his right ring finger was a silver lion-head ring, and now this hand rested on the hilt of his sword. He wore a long satin robe, yet his elven stature didn't make him look overly bulky. The leather belt with a lion's head accentuated the veteran hunter's sturdiness. He bowed to Durin and said, "Greetings, Lord Protector."

"You should call me Du Lin. Also, you are several times older than me. I can't bear to see an old man groveling in front of me. You don't have to be polite when you see me in the future." Du Lin held up the chopsticks in his hand and asked the mage to hold up the food plate, indicating that the three old men should sit in the empty seats.

After sitting down, Durin received a large tray of food from his considerate mother. She even prepared a large barrel of liquor, a large barrel of absinthe and a glass of elf wine.

Du Lin put the food on the tray on the table.

"If you put aside your identity as Lord Durin, you look like a waiter with many years of experience. How did you know that George likes absinthe?" Old Stone Hammer said in surprise.

"The wine was prepared by my mother for the three of you." Du Lin smiled and sat down.

Old Stone Hammer was startled, then stood up and bowed to Du Lin's mother, who was smiling at him from behind the counter. "Thank you for your generosity, ma'am."

"You are all guests invited by my children. Please feel free to do as you please." Du Lin's mother responded with a smile.

"Sir, you certainly didn't call us here just for a meal like this, although we three old brothers are quite proud that you invited us." The old human named George said as he raised his glass to Durin's mother.

"Yes, when I came here, everyone said that Lord Du Lin must have found a way out for the fatherless and motherless people in the world." said Old Sang Kui.

Perhaps because of his boldness, Lao Shichui raised his hand and patted him.

Du Lin smiled and said, "Yes, in fact, I called you together this time just for this matter."

Hearing Du Lin admit it personally, the three old men immediately perked up.

Old Sang Kui was a little excited: "Sir, what do you think of an orphan like me?"

Indeed, Old Sang Kui was the promising young man that his mentor found from the orphanage, and he was also very hardworking. Seventeen fellow apprentices had come all the way together, but in the end he was the only one left. However, this old man was still fighting on the front line until he was a hundred years old.

"Everyone says that without hunters to fight against alien species, the world would be in an uncertain state. I deeply understand this. When I was a child in Lublin, I saw many witchers and hunters. They walked alone, on the brink of death. Perhaps they simply felt that this was their only way to make a living, but their pursuit of alien species and monsters ensured that these dead beasts would not invade the civilized world. This is a truly remarkable act, considering we all know the mortality rate of hunters and witchers."

When Du Lin mentioned this, the three old men sighed in unison.

Old Sang Kui looked at Du Lin with expectant eyes: "Master Du Lin, please speak."

"Then let me tell you, orphans of unknown origin may have existed for hundreds of years, but in these hundreds of years, such orphans have never persecuted others for their own selfish interests. On the contrary, many of them were adopted because of their poor backgrounds and talents, becoming demon hunters and reserve hunters. Many also became soldiers, fighting on the front lines against the green-skinned orcs in the wilderness. Many of these orphans spent their youth in each other's blood, so... I declare that from today on, all those with a background of orphanages and adopted young orphans will be treated as normal people in my territory! As long as they don't betray civilization and don't betray the people, I will forever declare them innocent."

"What about you, sir?" George asked in confusion.

"If I do something that angers heaven and man, then please oppose me. As a lord, a grand duke, and a protector of the land, if I can't even do these things, then I sincerely welcome those young people to oppose me." At this point, Du Lin raised his tea and said: "May civilization last forever, may justice prevail forever, and may every life with good intentions live a long life."

Old Sangkui was the first to respond to Du Lin. He raised his glass with tears in his eyes.
