Chapter 216: Lovebird from Mary
Ailin's prophetic dream was true!
This was the first thought that came to Vesemir's mind after hearing the wizard Thomas Moreau's wild words.

And unexpectedly.

When he heard that "Ban Ader is an enemy of Kaer Morhen" and "The Winter School was destroyed", Vesemir did not feel too much fear or anxiety.

He thought about it for a moment.

Yes.

What's there to be afraid of with a Ben Ade?
In addition to the wizards, the enemies they had anticipated also included the King of Kaedwen!
There are thousands of knights and soldiers...

And now.

The royal family of Ard Kalai will never again unite with wizards.

This is all thanks to Ayling.

Vesemir tilted his head to look at the apprentice he was most proud of.

Then he glanced at the wizard on the ground, who was clueless and still laughing wildly, as if he was looking at a clown.

He believed that Ailin would be able to find a way out for the school.

What I have to do is to impart all my skills to him without reservation, and then protect and support him with all my strength.

"Then why are you so eager to die?"

Arryn stared coldly at the wizard who was trembling on the ground like a maggot.

"Why don't you wait for the snow to fall on the Blue Mountains, and then follow Ban Ade's army to avenge your selfishness and obsession?"

"Can't you wait that long?"

When Thomas Moreau heard what Ellin said, he felt as if someone had suddenly grabbed his throat, and his crazy laughter stopped immediately.

He stared at the young witcher fiercely, his eyes full of hatred.

His child once stared at him with such a pair of hateful cat eyes.

Refute him, resist him, be hostile to him...

Obviously, everything I did was for his own good!
Why doesn't he understand? Why doesn't he listen? Why doesn't he cooperate?

An inexplicable and overwhelming anger suddenly rushed to his brain, and countless vicious curses came out of his mouth.

"What do you know! You damned weirdos..."

"Snapped!"

Ailin took a step forward and quickly touched Thomas Moreau's artery with the tip of his right foot.

The bespectacled wizard rolled his eyes and fainted again.

The oak forest was quiet.

……

Vesemir paid no attention to Arryn's sudden action.

Thomas Moreau was obviously not as cooperative as Macao, and most of his subsequent words were meaningless curses.

He simply glanced at Thomas Moreau in surprise.

I found that his breathing was steady and there were no visible scars on his neck.

"Where did you learn this technique?"

Vesemir looked at Arryn curiously.

Even he couldn't achieve such an effect with his feet.

"I figured it out myself." Ailin said casually.

In fact, it comes from the Cat School Two-handed Sword LV5.

The cat school, whose main business is related to humans, has an understanding of human body structure that is comparable to that of senior surgeons in previous lives.

Although his specialization lies in murder, kidnapping and torture.

As expected of a natural born demon hunter... Vesemir smacked his lips and said with emotion:
"Your control over power has surpassed mine. You may only need two years to complete the five-year journey..."

"No, even a year would be enough..."

Arryn shook his head. "I still have much to learn, Master Vesemir."

"I hope you can teach me more!"

This is not a polite statement.

There are many small tricks like meditation that are not recognized as skills in the Demon Hunting Notes and need to be learned from Vesemir.

There is also some monsterology knowledge, such as the weaknesses of common and uncommon monsters.

Although Ailin also has knowledge of the monster encyclopedia from the game in his previous life.

But there is still a huge difference between games and reality.

At least a little.

Real-life combat is not a blood-swapping game.

After being attacked by a monster, my arms and legs were broken...

It is very common to find a piece of meat missing here or there.

Therefore, the knowledge imparted by the experienced witcher master Vesemir is particularly important.

In fact, after a demon hunter graduates from the travel trial, for a long period of ten years, they will only accept commissions for monsters that they have learned about and hunted under the guidance of their mentors during the travel.

At last.

For young demon hunters, another important aspect of a traveling mentor is relationships.

Like Radek.

He took the initiative to raise the price and offer the commission because he had heard of Vesemir's reputation and his family had worked with the witcher master.

After this commission, I understood Ailin's strength.

Would he talk about Arryn to his family relatives and recommend him?

If nothing unexpected happens, it is almost inevitable.

The most lucrative rewards come from the commissions from designated demon hunters.

Otherwise, Ailin would have to go from village to village to check notice boards and accept commissions as he did before.

He was determined to hold on to the one or two copper coins reward from the client.

"Of course. As long as you are willing to learn, I will teach you everything I know without reservation."

“This is my promise!”

Vesemir took off his wide-brimmed black hat and looked at Arryn seriously.

Aylin was stunned for a moment.

I didn't expect Vesemir to be so serious all of a sudden.

Feeling warm in his heart, Ailin smiled and nodded vigorously:
"Then you will be emptied, Master Vesemir!"

“I couldn’t ask for more!” Vesemir also laughed.

Macao, who was lying next to Thomas Moreau, felt his scalp tingling when he saw this scene of respect between teacher and friend.

Ban Ader is about to destroy Kaer Morhen, how can you laugh?
Even if you don't believe what that madman says, you shouldn't be so relaxed!

Do you really think that just a few dozen demon hunters can stop the wizards' destructive magic?

However, Macao only dared to think about it in his mind and did not dare to disturb them at all, for fear that the "Blue Death" would do the same to him.

It was not until the two demon hunters turned their gazes over that he quickly explained:
"What Thomas Moreau said is not true. The original plan of the academy may have had... uh... that plan..."

"However, the wizards in Ban Ade who hate witchers are actually only a small minority. Most of them are like me... friendly to witchers..."

Makao gave the two witchers a flattering look.

Seeing that they looked thoughtful, he heaved a sigh of relief and continued:
"After the celestial sphere conjunction occurs, resolving the troubles caused by the king's death will be the academy's next main goal."

"Extremists like Thomas Moreau are not mainstream. Dean Hen Gedimidis has always been alone, has no relatives, and no children. He has no ill will towards demon hunters, so he will definitely not become an enemy of your school this year..."

Not this year, so maybe next year?

Arryn and Vesemir looked at each other and understood.

But this was expected, as Aylin had never thought of getting through a crisis without fighting a battle.

Wolves, cats, griffins, bears...

The demise of the demon hunters is a global issue, and it is definitely not that easy to solve.
He just needs a buffer period to give Kaer Morhen time to develop.

Heart extract, potions, sword oil, skills, rituals...

Only a small part of the potential of Demon Hunting Notes has been tapped.

Time is on their side.

Of course, they didn't completely believe what Macao said, it was just a reference.

But none of that matters now.

How to deal with these two wizards is the most difficult thing at the moment.

Vesemir pinched his brows and tilted his head to look at Aylin with a headache:
"What do you think? What do you think should be done with these two wizards?"

After hearing this, Ailin felt a little headache when he looked at the two wizards on the ground. After pondering for two seconds under Makao's pleading eyes.

He looked up and opened his mouth to speak.

Sudden.

Ailin sensed something, and under Macao's horrified gaze, he kicked him with his right foot, sending him to sleep.

Without waiting for Vesemir to ask, he raised his right hand.

A crystal bird suddenly flew down from the sky and landed on the index finger of his right hand.

At this time.

Radek and Bogdan also prepared the campsite.

"Master Vesemir, Arlin, the campfire and tent are ready. Shall we prepare dinner?"

Radek yelled.

“Coming!” Vesemir shouted in response, looking down at the two wizards:
"Don't rush to think about how to deal with these two people. We have one night to think about it."

"The love letters from Mary are the most important."

As he spoke, he patted Ailin's shoulder and smiled ambiguously.

“This is not a love letter!”

Aelin argued.

Mary is only fifteen years old, not yet an adult!

Do you know what you are talking about, you frivolous old man?

“Well, well, well!” Vesemir laughed. “If you say it’s not, then it’s not.”

Then, without waiting for Ailin to argue, he ruffled Ailin's hair vigorously and turned to walk towards the campfire.

"Just watch it for now. I'll go help Radek and Bogdan prepare dinner..."

Looking at the demon hunter master's departing back, Ailin shook his head helplessly and withdrew his gaze.

However, since the two wizards did not come for them, there was no need to make a decision in a hurry.

So Ailin raised the teaser bird in his right hand and placed the crystal beak against his forehead.

next second.

Mary's sweet and innocent voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"My dear leader of the Wolf Pack..."

"The half-elves that Ms. Vera brought back have all been settled."

"In the first few days, they were timid, but within a few days they were running all over Kaer Morhen."

"Chirp, chirp, like a group of little ducks..."

"This is the first time Kaer Morhen has been so lively since the ice and snow on the Blue Mountains melted and you left."

"pity……"

"This excitement won't last long..."

"Since they came back, Hughes, Bonte, and Fred, who had been playing with them, followed a few witcher masters down the mountain yesterday."

"Ms. Vera said that in a few days, after she and the Chief have discussed how to integrate the water ghost's heart essence into the Trial of Choice, your bearded deputy captain, Aristo, will begin training them."

"Humph~"

"Speaking of which!"

"The vicious Aristo wouldn't even let me enter the training ground for the Trial of Choice!"

"You should know that I am the chief warlock of the Wolf Alliance Legion, and he is just an ordinary deputy leader!"

"When you come back, you must help me teach him a lesson!"

"Well... there's no need to teach him a harsh lesson. After all, Aristo is usually quite responsible."

"Under his strict training, your reserve members have learned both swordsmanship and magic seals very quickly."

"Of course, I can't teach him a lesson too lightly, otherwise how can I, the sorceress Mary and the chief sorceress of the Wolf Pack, keep my dignity?"

Hearing this, Ailin smiled.

The image of Mary, with horns growing on her forehead and looking angry, appeared in my mind.

It can't be too heavy or too light, otherwise it will be difficult to teach.

Ailin felt a little amused.

Shaking his head, he continued to listen.

"At least ask him to address me as Ms. Mary instead of Mary Mary. It's so embarrassing for me in front of the reserve members~"

"Hahaha~"

Mary's true intention was exposed, and Ailin couldn't help laughing.

"And I do it much better than him!"

"Under my guidance, all your reserve members have learned the skills of Corpse-Eating Bio-Oil, Killer Whale, and Cat's Eye. Klar has even started practicing the Ice Spear Spell!"

"You know, even Aristo hasn't learned it yet!"

"I'm awesome, Alin!"

That's really remarkable.

The young witcher thought.

There are so many things, which should be enough for them to learn for half a year.

It's only been two months.

As expected of Principal Aretuza in the original novel, he is extremely talented in teaching.

After thinking for a while, Ailin opened the Demon Hunter's Notes with his mind and called up the panel of the legion members.

really.

The formula that each member learned included necrophile oil, killer whale, and cat's eye.

What a pleasant surprise.

It wasn't just Kral who learned the Ice Spear spell.

Erni and another legion member named Peta also learned the ice spear spell.

Sure enough, inviting Mary to be his legion warlock was the right decision.

I have to think of a way to win over Mary and not let her jump ship to Aretusa... Ailin pondered in his mind and continued to listen.

"Aristo actually hinted to me several times that he wanted me to teach him, but I just pretended not to understand."

"Unless he calls me Lady Mary!"

"Otherwise, don't even think about me teaching him..."

After secretly saying a few bad things about Aristo, Mary talked about the current situation of half-elves' lives.

She talked about how naughty a half-elf named Adorphe was.

A guy named Sirio is so introverted.

The youngest half-elf child named Maya, why does she cry and make a fuss for her mother every day...

Whether it was Adorfei, Sirio or Maya, it was the first time that Ailin heard the names of all half-elves.

He is not really interested in the lives of these half-elves.
But listen, listen.

In a trance, he had a strange feeling, like a husband working away from home and listening to his wife's casual conversation on the phone.

"Although I can't enter the training ground for the Trial of Choice, I can still enter the apprentice dormitory because I need to prepare the water ghost's heart essence and other trial potions."

"So don't worry, I will take good care of them."

"Finally, you must be safe out there!"

"When Ms. Vera told me about your experience, I was almost crying several times..."

Hearing this, Ailin laughed.

With Mary's personality, it must not be just a little bit, she must have cried!

My heart warmed up.

The feeling of being cared for is like soaking in 38-degree Celsius hot water, making the whole person feel lazy and warm.

Involuntarily, he looked up to the north.

The gorgeous sunset, like silk, alternating between gold and red, stretches from west to east.

Looking at the beautiful scenery, Ailin sighed softly.

to be frank.

this moment.

He missed Kaer Morhen a little.
