Chapter 191 Space Skills

After each witcher from the Wolf School completes a master's feat, he will inform all other witcher schools except the Cat School, as well as familiar nobles.

As the king of Kaedwen, Haxor was naturally also within the scope of the notification.

For some reason, he paid special attention to the Wolf School.

He remembered the name of every Wolf School Demon Hunter Master clearly.

and.

Winter had just passed, and the witchers of Kaer Morhen had probably just come down the mountain not long ago.

There is also no possibility that there will be a new promotion to the Master Demon Hunter without being notified in time.

So he was very sure that there was definitely no witcher master named Ailin in the Wolf School.

"There is no witcher master named Aelin?"

Teresius was unusually surprised when he heard this.

They are all witcher schools in Kaedwen, and he is very clear about the level of the Wolf School witchers.

For them, hunting monsters is always much easier than fighting with cat school demon hunters.

For a Wolf School demon hunter who could kill Fredica and Brett head-on, hunting a large monster could be considered a piece of cake.

It's impossible that he's not even a master demon hunter.

"Could it be that Guksat heard it wrong?"

Teresius thought.

but.

The name of the Demon Hunter Master is important, but not crucial.

For the three of them, the most troublesome thing was the powerful combat capability of a Demon Hunter Master in the Wolf School.

This will add a lot of variables to the three people's plans.

then.

After confirming with Teresius again and again, Haxo frowned and said:
"Erin, I will send someone to investigate the list of Wolf School personnel participating in the competition."

"Before that, let's prepare according to the instructions of the two Demon Hunter Masters!"

……

Mountain hut.

"They left?"

Just after seeing Francesca off, a childish female voice came from behind.

Aelin turned around.

The eldest of the children, Lysa, the orphan of Viscount Hudson, walked out of the cabin.

The demon hunter nodded:

"Why didn't you take a rest?"

"I can't sleep!" Lisa shook her head.

She hesitated for a few seconds and asked:
"Aunt Asha once said that demon hunters are the most powerful warriors in the world..."

"so……"

Lysa clenched her fists.

"Can I be a demon hunter?"

Ailin was silent.

Shadia had plans for her benefactor’s daughter.

As an orphan and a thorn in the king's side, it was impossible for Lysa to grow up as a noble according to her original life trajectory.

After pacifying several underage half-elves and arriving at Kaer Morhen, the Wolf School will arrange for someone to escort her to the temple of the goddess Meliteli.

Shadia has some connections in the temple and can allow Lysa to enter the temple to study.

In her heart.

Lysa's future should be a priest, doctor, herbalist...

The only option that is not possible is the Demon Hunter.

but……

Lysa herself obviously doesn't think so.

Ailin could feel the flame of revenge burning in her young and clear eyes.

"You're too old!"

"Becoming a demon hunter at this time, accepting cruel trials and potion transformation, will only lead to death."

Aelin lied.

Although the probability of passing the Green Grass Trial is indeed lower as you get older.

The creator of The Witcher targeted children precisely because the mortality rate of adults was too high.

However, after the water ghost's heart essence appeared.

Mary would often inform him of changes in the witcher apprentice through the message bird.

The time for physical transformation in the Trial of Choice has been shortened, the success rate of potion transformation in the Trial of Grass has been greatly improved, and the Trial of Dreams has almost become a formality.

Apart from the fact that there has never been a female witcher in the Wolf School, the safety of magic potion transformation on women has not been verified.

Lysa's success rate in becoming a demon hunter is actually quite high.

but.

He wasn't going to do that.

after all.

Besides having already promised Shadia.

Knowing Lisa's tragic experience, he couldn't bear to let a little girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, without a father or mother, jump into another fire pit just after walking out of one fire pit.

As a demon hunter, he knew very well that this was not an easy road to take.

The Temple of Meliteli is the best place for her.

Upon hearing this, Lisa fell silent, looked at the witcher expressionlessly, and then walked back to the cabin without saying a word.

"Whoo~"

Watching the little girl's back disappear into the wooden door.

Ailin let out a sigh and stopped thinking about it.

Sit cross-legged facing the cabin and take out the gem.

"Ding!"

"Fragments of the Ard Geis Gate have been detected. Do you want to absorb them?"

absorb!

The next moment the mind clicks.

The gem floated up from Arlin's palm and then disappeared into thin air.

[Ding! Absorbing the fragments of the Gate of Ad Geis...]

[Ding! You have acquired the skill: Space Mastery LV1]

[Ding! Absorbing the fragments of the Gate of Ad Geis...]

[Ding! You have acquired the skill: Flashing LV1]

[Ding! Absorbing the fragments of the Gate of Ad Geis...]

……

The bell for the end of get out of class sounded in my mind, and a stream of heat spread from my brows throughout my body.

"Om~"

The wolf emblem was humming softly.

The space around him responded with a faint vibration.

at the same time.

A lot of knowledge about space also emerged in Ailin's mind.

About two minutes later.

This body transformation and indoctrination of knowledge only stopped.

Aelin opened his eyes.

The oak trees were shaken by the evening breeze.

Countless translucent silk threads stretched before my eyes.

The demon hunter's mind moved slightly, and his mental power was mobilized.

In an instant.

"Shh!"

A soft sound.

A demon hunter with two swords on his back appeared under the oak tree.

"Is this...is this the flicker?"

Ailin stared at the clear lines on the oak tree bark so close to him.

My heart was pounding and I felt an indescribable joy.

The space is flashing!

"I can actually use space-related skills!"

Before absorbing the fragments of the Gate of Ade Geis, he had never expected that such a surprise would be waiting for him.

How powerful would a demon hunter be who could blink?

It was unimaginable for Aelin.

Open the Demon Hunting Notes with your mind.

[Name: Ailin]

【Level: 41】

[Special skills: Demon Hunting LV3, Identification LV2, Tracking LV1, Space Mastery LV1]

[Special Skill Points: 4]

[Skill: Flash LV1...]

Yes.

The newly acquired Spatial Mastery and Blink are not the same kind of skills.

Spatial Mastery is a passive skill.

It was the warm current that just emerged from between the eyebrows.

It allowed Ailin to sense the fluctuations in space and have the opportunity to use magic to exploit these fluctuations.

It is also a prerequisite skill for the Blink skill.

In other words, if you want to improve flicker, you must first use special skill points to increase the skill level of space mastery.

[Ding! Consume 3 special skill points]

[Ding! Your skill: Space Mastery LV1 has been upgraded to Space Mastery LV4]

[Ding! Consume small experience beads*310]

[Ding! Your skill: Flashing LV1 has been upgraded to Flashing LV4 (0/10000)]

There is nothing to hesitate about.

Just use the flash skill to the maximum!
The moment the chaotic "ding" sound was heard, a large amount of warm current surged out from between his eyebrows, transforming Ailin's body.

this moment.

Ailin even floated in mid-air due to the sudden improvement in his control over space. The silver magic power that symbolized space suddenly appeared in the mutated organ, surging in every strand of magic power vein extending from it.

[Ding! You gained two points of spatial affinity.]

“There is such a benefit!”

Ailin was overjoyed.

Ten points of elemental affinity were of great help when facing the cat school demon hunters.

Now with two more points of spatial affinity, the Demon Hunter is one step closer to the realm where he can only break through defenses with a silver sword.

for a long time.

The transformation is complete.

All the memories after Flash's upgrade were also absorbed.

The initial flashing range of three meters in radius was directly increased to twelve meters.

at the same time.

LV4 also adds a special effect: the target within the flashing path will have its center of gravity unstable due to space fluctuations.

Magical skill!

This is the only comment that Ailin has.

but.

This time he didn't make another impulsive flash.

Because this skill comes at a price for him now.

Take out the amulet of goddess Meliteli from the chest.

In addition to the two huge black burn marks before, there was another small burn mark on the goddess's silver amulet.

This is what suddenly appears on the amulet after using the Blink skill.

I think it was the attack of the big-eyed evil god, but the power was not enough because the time of travel was too short.

“Although the amulet of the goddess Meliteli should be able to withstand the filth of the evil god brought by three or four flashes…”

"But once the Apprentice Competition is over, we must leave for Elland immediately."

Aelin frowned.

The threat posed by the evil god slightly diluted the excitement of increased strength.

Also.

After the upgrade, the Demon Hunter now has only 13 small experience beads and 6 experience beads left.

"Whoo~"

Take a deep breath and calm down.

"Aida Emin is right. The fragment of the Gate of Ade Geis is indeed what I want and need most right now."

"With the space-based dodge skills and two points of space affinity, my strength has improved by leaps and bounds."

"and……"

Ailin opened the Demon Hunting Notes with his mind.

[Ding! Absorbing the fragments of the Gate of Ad Geis...]

There are already so many benefits, but this fragment has not been fully absorbed!

“Great harvest!”

“It’s been a great harvest!”

Ailin sighed.

After leveling up, it’s time to deal with the spoils of killing the big demon.

[Inventory: Great Demon Spirit's Purification Spirit*1, Great Demon Spirit's Treasure Box*3]

The interface jumps to the inventory.

[Ding! Do you want to open the treasure chest of the big demon*3?]

Hold tight the amulet of the goddess Meliteli.

Ailin changed his mind.

Suddenly there was one purple and two white.

Three rays of light flashed.

[Obtain: Great Demon Spirit's Purification Spirit*1, Experience Bead*2]

Well, not bad.

At least there is one purple.

Moreover, both the experience beads and the purification spirit of the great demon are very practical.

Ailin thought.

Then he didn't hesitate.
[Ding! Do you want to use the Great Demon's Purification Spirit*2? ]

The moment the thought clicked, the coolness almost instantly froze the brain.

My ears and eyes suddenly became clear, as if I had suddenly climbed ashore from a murky lake.

[Attributes: Strength 32, Agility 31, Constitution 34, Perception 32 (+4), Mysticism 41]

The purified spirit of a great demon spirit can increase perception by two points, which is directly four times that of an ordinary demon spirit.

Ailin's perception is finally no longer his shortcoming!
The demon hunter closed his eyes.
Listen carefully to catch the sounds around you.

The visual enhancement brought by perception is difficult to distinguish at night.

However, the improvement in hearing can be felt now.

"Sha~sha~"

The night wind blows, rustling the leaves.

"Wow~Wow~"

The waves of the small lake rose and fell, hitting the rocks on the shore.

Listen more carefully.

“Sizzle~Sizzle~Sizzle~”

Spring insects move their bodies in the soil and turn over the soil.

And then the next second.

"Eh~"

Ailin sighed softly.

He heard the toddler sleeping in the cabin and the girl sobbing quietly.

The hatred will not disappear because of his rejection.

After he rejected Lysa's intention to become a witcher, he didn't know whether Lysa would really do as Shadia arranged.

In the temple of the goddess Meliteli, eliminate the hatred in your heart and become a respected priest or doctor.

But there was nothing he could do about it.

"Damn Hackso!"

Ailin cursed in his heart.

……

The next morning.

After sorting out the recent rewards last night, Ailin did not go into the house to disturb them, but meditated directly in front of the cabin.

"Boom!"

A familiar sound woke the witcher from his meditation.

"Ms. Vera!"

Aelin shouted in surprise.

The sorceress walked out of the orange-yellow portal step by step.

Last night he was still thinking about how to sneak into Viscount Hudson's abandoned mine again, ask her for help, and send these half-elves back to Kaer Morhen.

I didn’t expect the sorceress to come right over here.

"Good morning!"

The sorceress smiled and asked Aelin.

"Good morning, Ms. Vera!"

Ailin responded happily.

Judging from the sorceress's expression, the Cat School witcher who was sneaking around and hiding in the mining team last night should not have hurt the Chief.

However, he still asked:
"Those demon hunters last night..."

"Don't worry, Soi is fine." The sorceress smiled.

then.

The last bit of Aelin's worry was gone.

Spatial skills, elf friendship, rock trolls, enhanced perception, and mirage beads...

Most importantly, no one was killed or injured except for the forces of the King of Kaedwen...

"This is the first commission I took after leaving Kaer Morhen. It's really worth it."

Ailin thought.

"But it's okay this time, but it may not be the case next time."

The sorceress suppressed her smile.

"Hmm?" Ailin was stunned for a moment, "There will be a next time?"

The sorceress nodded.

"Soy came here at the invitation of Haxo to discuss how to deal with the elves."

"However, the neutral stance of the Wolf School has always been very clear in the past, so he is just trying to buy the school some time."

Hear this.

Arlin, who had already made a deal with the elves, felt a little uncomfortable.

"Of course we all know now..."

"Hakso knew that Soi would refuse, but still forcefully invited him to come. This was probably to find an opportunity to quietly kill him."

Ailin thought:
"So next time, it may not mean..."

The sorceress stroked her forehead and sighed:

"The Cat School Demon Hunter's assassination attempt last night did not occur."

"But then Hackso warmly invited him to stay and participate in the apprentice fighting competition between your two schools."

Ailin looked solemn:

"The Chief agreed?"

The sorceress nodded, her face looking a little grim:
"If he doesn't agree, you'll be in danger."

"so……"

"Are you sure you want to participate in this apprentice competition again? You can't..."

"Alin! Who is she?"

A clear female voice suddenly rang out in the wooden house, interrupting the sorceress's words.

The sorceress looked at the beautiful girl who came out of the dilapidated wooden house, gave Ailin a strange look, and asked:

"Shouldn't it be an elf?"
