Arknights: The Old Hunter

Hunter Goki believed the nightmare was finally over when he severed the Hunter’s Dream and walked out of blood-moon-drenched Yharnam. But when he opened his eyes again, the world had changed. Standing before him was a silver-haired girl with a greatsword resting on her shoulder, her ocean-colored gaze colder than moonlight. “A hunter who hunts beasts? Outsider… this land breeds only the evils of the deep. I will not die here.” Thus began the unexpected alliance between Goki, the outsider hunter, and Skadi, the deep-sea hunter who abandoned Agol. Their journey across Terra unveils mysteries far darker than anything Goki faced in Yharnam. Saltwind City, a quiet fishing village, whispers of imprisoned ghost sharks. Sailors swear they hear the heartbeat of a giant octopus beneath the waves. Something ancient stirs, older than the ocean and hungrier than any beast Goki ever hunted. And when the Demon of the Foehn Wind awakens, the true hunt begins. A crossover of eldritch horror, deep-sea legends, and hunter’s madness. Step into Terra. The tides have already chosen their prey. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Arknights: The Old Hunter — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
