Chapter 130 Fate will favor the true demon hunter

Ok?
Margarita?

Ailin looked at the girl in front of him in surprise.

Of course he knew who Margarita Laux Antilles was.

In the original novel, she is the sorceress most admired by Tisaya de Vries, the dean of Aretuza Academy, the future dean of Aretuza Academy, and one of the founders of the Sorceresses' Gathering.

Even in the gathering of sorceresses, she is the one with the highest magical attainments.

He is also gentle and decent.

In the book The Lady of the Lake, the sorceresses meet for the political purpose of controlling the Northern Kingdom.

He once wanted to sacrifice Ciri and marry the prince, and discussed whether Ciri should meet Geralt, who came all the way to pursue the girl.

Margarita voted in favor of Geralt and Ciri's meeting on the grounds that the lodge's choices should not be sacrificed at the expense of personal choices.

Potential, character and outstanding looks.

All in all, this is a top-tier SSR.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my name?"

Mary checked her signature curiously, but could find no mistake.

"No problem, no problem." Ailin said repeatedly.

When Mary was chatting with me before, she also mentioned that she was from Aretuza.

But shouldn’t Margarita be Tissaya’s apprentice?
How did you become Ms. Vera's apprentice?

Ailin tilted his head and asked curiously, "Ms. Vera, do you know Tissaya?"

"Hmm? You've heard of Tisha's name too?"

The sorceress was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said in a gentle voice:

"She's my best friend and she was the one who recommended Mary to me."

best friend?

Ailin was immediately filled with respect when he heard this.

Although he had heard a lot of rumors about Ms. Vera, from her social circle, Ailin once again refreshed his understanding of Ms. Vera's strength.

Tissaia, like Heng Gedimidis of the Ben Ader Academy, is one of the five members of the Guild of Talent and Art, standing at the pinnacle of warlock power.

His gaze returned to Mary.

She was earnestly reciting the training plan that Ailin had just written, and seemed to regard herself completely as a member of the Demon Hunting Corps.

Thinking that Mary, who is still confused at the moment, will actually become such a big shot in the future, and will have to work for herself in the Demon Hunting Corps in the future.

A strong sense of unreality arose.

……

After reporting the matter of the legion warlock to the chief and obtaining his approval, Ailin continued to lead his legion and the water ghost whistle to look for trouble with the water ghosts near Kaer Morhen.

As the weather gets warmer, monsters like water ghosts appear like weeds, popping up from time to time by the banks of streams or rivers.

There were small groups, and although the number was not large, it was just right for the Corps' apprentices to practice in combat.

Within a few days, the legion was upgraded to level three and five more members were unlocked.

While all members' Wolf School two-handed swords were upgraded to LV2, their strength and constitution attributes also rose to the upper limit of the Water Ghost Heart Essence, 9 points of strength and 13 points of constitution.

Such strength is not much different from that of a demon hunter who has followed his mentor in "traveling trials" for five years.

We have more collective coordination and discipline than them.

At least in a one-on-one situation, perhaps a demon hunter and a member of the legion who have been traveling for five years can kill an ordinary fully armored knight head-on.

But when the number of enemies increased, the same number of non-legion members would be slaughtered by groups of knights, while the legion members could still maintain a certain advantage.

In this way, time passes quickly during training and actual combat.

The mountain trial is here again!
……

Killer Lake. Looking out at the towering blue mountains, the sparkling lake, and the eleven figures heading toward the Elemental Ring from the right bank, Dante couldn't help but sigh:
"To witness two high mountain trials in one winter is an unprecedented experience."

"Have you ever seen a witcher school with its own legion?" Vesemir asked unhappily.

"That's true. I've never heard of any of the cats, bears, griffins, vipers, or even the flying lions on the other side of the Blue Mountains forming a military group."

Dante nodded in agreement, then sighed with some worry, "Demon hunters always work alone. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing."

"We were just defending ourselves in response to the precognitive dream the Chief brought."

"As long as we adhere to the principle of neutrality..."

White's tone suddenly paused, and he stroked his gray beard uncertainly.

The School of Wolf's principle of neutrality originally came from the lessons learned from the Witcher Cult.

Due to the lack of unified thought in the religious order at that time and the multiple influences of ordinary people, rulers, wizards and the church, a civil war broke out, resulting in heavy casualties.

Therefore, after the Wolf School was established, it took neutrality as its principle.

The core is to hunt monsters and protect the continent, and not get involved in the struggles among various forces, thinking that this will prevent the tragedy of the Monster Hunter Cult from happening again.

but……

If the Chief's prophetic dream is true, the Wolf School is about to be destroyed. What is the point of adhering to the principle of neutrality?
Thinking of this, White sighed in his heart, tilted his head to look at Aresto, and then comforted him:
"With Aristo watching over it, there shouldn't be any problems."

Aristo crossed his arms, felt White's gaze, nodded, and said:
"I'll pay attention, don't worry."

Seeing that the atmosphere had become heavy due to the precognitive dream, Dante sighed inwardly and changed the subject:

"Vesemir, Aristo, this mountain trial is different from the past. You won't let us off easy, right?"

Vesemir and Aristo looked at each other, and finally Vesemir spoke:
"The Killer Banks are so dangerous to the apprentices that we simply cannot let them go."

"Aristo and I have been clearing out monsters that are beyond the capabilities of apprentices these days."

Aristo also nodded, acknowledging Vesemir's words.

He has been very busy these days cleaning up the east shore of Killer Lake. As the deputy leader, he doesn't even have time to take care of the Demon Hunting Corps.

I don't know how the apprentice training is going?

"No way?" Dante was a little surprised, "Isn't there still Ailin?"

Vesemir shook his head.

Others might be confused by Ailin's record of hunting three large monsters, but he wouldn't.

Just over a month ago, Vesemir and Arryn hunted an Ice King side by side.

"Alin's strengths lie in swordsmanship, potions, quick wits, and his special talent of the Demon Hunter's Eye."

"Although I learned the seal very quickly, due to the growth speed of the mutant organs, it is difficult to improve the proficiency and power of the seal significantly in just a few days."

"And the seal is the key to dealing with group battles, not to mention..."

After a pause, Vesemir continued helplessly:
"Not to mention he has to lead nine other people through the trial together."

"Hughes, Bonte, and Fred are only slightly stronger than the apprentices who just passed the trial. They can't provide much help."

"There are even more of those seven apprentices who can't even use the most basic swordsmanship properly."

Aristo nodded slightly and added worriedly:
"It was already difficult to deal with a group of water ghosts. But when we were clearing the route, we even encountered small fog demons and rot demons."

"You all know how difficult these monsters are. Even though we cleared them out twice yesterday, I'm still not sure what kind of monsters Ailin and the others will encounter today."

"Perhaps, we should..."

"This is the mountain trial, Aristo." White patted Aristo on the shoulder, "Fate will favor the true demon hunter!"

Aristo sighed upon hearing this, and felt a little bored when he thought of Sally who was driven down the mountain.

"I hope so."

"I'm not worried about Aelin's safety."

"I just hope he won't be devastated by this mountain trial."
