Chapter 299 Kaer Morhen is missing?
"It's one of the old Cliff Honor rites."

"Legend has it that the Cambridge ceremony, performed sincerely by the warriors, can allow the recipient's soul to touch the Hall of Valor in Cliff..."

"Heroes who have undergone the Glory Ceremony will definitely be chosen by Cliff. Not only will their spirits be immortal after death, but they will also become the vanguard of the war to end all things..."

"Of course, now this is just a legend related to God."

Sara raised an eyebrow. “Like the chosen king and queen of the Cinco de Mayo.”

"Their marriage will surely be blessed by the goddess Meliteli, and their offspring will be as abundant as wheat harvest, filling their home, and their future will be bright..."

"But in reality, marriage is ultimately a matter between two people and has nothing to do with gods."

"Many May Kings and Queens have had unhappy marriages, not to mention their offspring..."

"Sarah, watch your language!" Arthur frowned and interrupted, "Don't speculate on the gods!"

Sarah shrugged and passed over the subject without comment.

The soul touches Valhalla...

"So the man with blond hair and golden eyes is Cliff?" Ailin thought.

That makes sense.

After all, the soldiers' prayer during the ceremony also began with "May Cliff..."

Moreover, the prototype of Cliff in the original work is Odin from the Norse mythology in the previous life, but the author did not mention this god much, so he did not have a deep understanding of this religion.

Judging from Sarah's behavior, Cliff will not be seen at the usual Cambridge ceremonies.

Thinking of what Meritelli said last night, Ailin couldn't help but feel a little suspicious...

Did Cliff's sudden appearance, like Meliteli's, weaken the frost on the walls of the Kingdom of God because of his intersection with Ban Ade's celestial sphere?

"I wonder if He came here just for me, or if He just showed up to cater to the Cambridge ceremony..." Ailin speculated.

But the war to end all things...

Ailin vaguely felt that the former possibility was more likely.

"Knight Arryn!"

"Mayday King!"

"Mayday King!"

"Mayday King!"

……

The loud cheers changed imperceptibly. What was originally just the faint shouts of "May Day King" by a few troublemakers has now become the mainstream.

It was not difficult to see from the slightly frowned eyebrows of the old-fashioned Arthur and the rough smile on Sarah's face.

This change was clearly not planned in advance.

But now even the Royal Guards and Demon Hunters have started to shout like this.

Obviously.

No matter in which world, people who enjoy having fun are the majority.

Or do they find the title of “Mayday King” more relatable?

"Let's go! Demon hunter, Knight Arryn of Elland..." Sarah laughed heartily.

"Leave amid the cheers of the crowd, don't look back, keep your head held high and move forward..."

“It’s part of the Cambridge ritual.”

Arthur nodded solemnly and handed the black flag with a ferocious wolf head to Arryn:
"Brave and glorious heroes always rush from one battlefield to another, until they hear the horn of Valhalla sound and join the final battle of eternal glory..."

“I look forward to the opportunity to fight under your banner in the future and to share the road to glory!”

The witcher was stirred by their words.

After nodding vigorously, he looked back at the towering city gate, and then at the little priest who was surrounded by the knight guards under the city gate and pushed to the front with a ruddy face but an unnatural smile on his lips.

He smiled and waved.

Then he glanced at the place where he had fought, and then, amidst the roar of cheers and praises, he pulled the reins and galloped away from Elland.

In front.

Vera, Vesemir, Marie, and Yennefer were already waiting on horseback, looking at the witcher with smiles.

When Arryn accepted the grand Cambridge ceremony, they led their horses from the corner and left quietly and early.

When Ailin rode closer, Vera, smiling warmly, opened her mouth as if she was about to speak.

“Let’s go!” Vesemir didn’t notice this at all. He shouted as he passed Vera with great courage, “Follow our Wolf School hero and go home!”

……

About an hour later.

"Ugh~"

Vesemir leaned weakly against a green larch, his face paler than chiffon paper.

"Master Vesemir, didn't you say before that we should take a break before teleporting..." Mary patted the witcher master on the back and reproached him.

"I'm fine!" Vesemir waved his hand weakly to interrupt.

"Ugh~"

Another retching sound.

The Master Witcher gripped the gnarled trunk of the larch with both hands.

He scratched off all the brown bark.

After passing through five portals in a row, Vesemir's body's reaction was obviously more honest than his mouth.

And to be honest, much more.

Mary glared at Arryn reproachfully.

Ailin sighed helplessly. This was indeed his fault.

As for why?
"There are still two portals away from Kaer Morhen. Do you want to take a break?" Vera asked calmly.

Everyone looked at Vesemir in silence.

Vesemir supported himself on the tree trunk with his right hand and glanced around.

Five consecutive portals.

Vera's face was as delicate as always.

After all, Bloody Red Fox is a senior sorceress who uses teleportation to travel on a daily basis, so this is normal.

Mary has traveled with Vera for many years and must have gotten used to the portal a long time ago.

Even Yennefer's rosy face and seemingly unconsciousness were understandable, after all, she was a magical genius praised by even Vera.

but……

but! !! !!

Vesemir's eyes flicked to a certain fourteen-year-old witcher.

But how could Arryn, who had been a witcher for less than a year and couldn't even beat him without potions, have the ability to do so?
How come I don’t feel anything even after crossing five portals?
Vesemir even remembered Arryn's frail face, which was whiter than snow, when he was teleported back to the hall of Kaer Morhen Castle from the Killer Lake half a year ago.

But now?

Ailin seemed to be in better condition than Mary.

No!

Anyone could be better than him, but how could a traveling mentor like him be worse than his apprentice in endurance portal?
Vesemir suppressed the nausea in his stomach and said loudly:

"No... no need!"

"I'm...very...fine, keep transmitting!"

Yes.

This scene has been repeated five times.

But Ailin felt a little aggrieved under Mary's stare.

Can you blame him for not being affected by the portal?
He glanced at the translucent Demon Hunting Notes.

[Ding! The fragments of the Gate of Ad Geis have been absorbed! ]

[Ding! Your special skill: Space Mastery LV5 has been upgraded to Space Mastery LV6]

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

Yes.

The fragments of the Gate of Ade Geis had already been completely absorbed.

However, it was not when the Kingdom of Meliteli was removing the curse of the evil god. Although a system prompt appeared at that time, it was only a stage reward for the Gate of Ardges to absorb fragments:
Spatial mastery level 4 upgraded to level 5.

The complete absorption occurred when passing through the second portal. The fragments of the Gate of Ad Geis were absorbed at a speed that suddenly increased in the environment of the portal space.

In the end, not only did he upgrade his special reward space mastery to a higher level, he was also given a long-distance teleportation spell, but he didn't have the time to try it out.

But then again.

Even if he hadn't upgraded his Space Mastery Level 4, it was enough for him to not be affected by the Demon Hunter's portal syndrome when passing through the portal.

In the portal, he felt like a fish in water.

So it is doomed to be meaningless to compare Vesemir with him.

Although the demon hunter did not mention his newly acquired spatial skills, he also gave advice several times.

However, the Demon Hunter Master seemed to be stubborn on a certain idea and was unwilling to admit defeat.

It wasn't that Ailin didn't trust the people present.

After learning the water divination ritual and the fire divination ritual, he discovered that there were many such divination rituals in the world.

The more people knew about his skill that was closely related to the intersection of Ard Ghaith's Gate and the Celestial Sphere, the higher the probability that Ben Ard's hated wolf school wizards and the Wild Hunt would know about it.

Of course, if the time really came to use it, he would definitely use it.

But for Vesemir's inexplicably toughened self-esteem, exposing his spatial talent here seemed... unnecessary.

not to mention……

"Snapped!"

A snap of the fingers.

The Demon Hunter Master's body trembled subconsciously and he almost lost his balance on the tree trunk.

"Boom~"

A brand new portal appeared neatly on this barren mountain.

Vera, illuminated by the orange light of the portal, was cold and ruthless.

I don’t know how the witcher master offended the sorceress, but it seems that Lady Vera didn’t want to give Vesemir a chance to live.

otherwise.

After a portal.

Lady Vera said she wanted to rest, would Vesemir dare order her to open the door?

He glanced at the girl who had been glaring at him with her mouth puffed up with anger.

But Mary seemed not to feel that Vera was targeting her, as if everything was Erin's fault.

do not know either……

Was this intentional or unintentional...

Ailin sighed in his heart and did not argue. He was about to persuade the witcher master again.

But he didn't expect to be noticed by Vesemir.

The Demon Hunter Master gritted his teeth and rushed into the portal without hesitation.

When Arryn saw this scene, he recalled his time in Kaer Morhen and felt a churning in his stomach.

"Humph!"

Mary rarely showed a cold expression in front of him, took Yennefer's hand, snorted coldly, and walked into the portal.

"A crime!"

The witcher sighed inwardly and shook his head.

……

Having passed the second-to-last portal, it was impossible for Vesemir to stop at the last portal.

After all.

The extreme discomfort known as portal syndrome only causes discomfort and does not cause any harm to the demon hunter's body.

Eventually, Vesemir made his way back to the Blue Mountains through the portal.

However, Vera still gave the witcher master some face and did not teleport directly to the castle hall.

Instead, he opened the portal on a hill not far from Kaer Morhen, giving him enough time to adjust.

The sky is blue and the clouds are light, and the mountains are majestic.

As soon as he emerged from the portal, the demon hunter closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The nose is filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants, as well as the unique woody aroma of pine resin.

This was not a taste he was familiar with.

But no wonder.

When he traveled through, Kaer Morhen had already entered late autumn.

It was bitterly cold in the mountains, and most of the wild flowers along the roadside had withered.

Although the taste was not right, I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, the moment I stepped out of the portal.

Ailin suddenly felt much more relaxed.

"We're at our new home!" Mary lowered her head and rubbed Yennefer, who was wrapped in a black robe.

The little girl had just arrived in an unfamiliar environment and timidly looked out from her robe.

"It's so beautiful here!" she exclaimed.

Violet's pupils sparkled in the sunlight.

The demon hunter opened his eyes upon hearing this.

The Blue Mountains are indeed beautiful in early summer.

In the near distance there are purple and red flowers whose names cannot be described. The dandelions whose names can be described are also in bloom, with goose yellow flowers blooming all over the hill.

A little further away are tall, lush green trees.

The clear, light blue Gwenliqu River cuts through the connected forests and extends all the way to the snow-capped mountains shrouded in clouds and mist.

It's like a fairyland.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

With slow and heavy footsteps, Vesemir walked out of the tree-covered forest.

His pale face was hidden by a black wide-brimmed hat, and he moved unsteadily.

next second.

The witcher could feel a pair of eyes cast out from the black wide-brimmed hat, looking at him.

"What a little monster..." Vesemir muttered, then let out a long sigh.

In just half a year, Ailin seemed like a completely different person.

But thinking back on this journey...

The abandoned castle of Hudson, the sneak attack of the Cat School, the death of King Ben Ader, the great griffin of Vengerberg, the attack of the Wild Hunt in Flotsam, and the siege of the demons in Elland...

God!

The experience in the past six months is better than his experience in the past ten years...

Do not!
More than his experience in the past twenty years...

The Demon Hunter Master doesn't have to deal with large monsters every year.

Tell the truth.

Most of the time, the most difficult commission he received was to help the nobles clean out their cellars and family tombs.

Not to mention dealing with kings, monster sieges, and even the legendary natural disasters.

The most important thing is that he survived.

Vesemir felt a little dazed when he thought about it. The experiences of the past six months were even more legendary than the biographies of those ancient heroes.

"What a little monster!"

Vesemir ruffled Arryn's hair and sighed in his heart.

"Let's go home."

"I must take a good rest for half a year this time. No matter what anyone says, I won't come down the mountain..."

Hearing this, the witcher who was straightening his hair couldn't help but look up and felt that Vesemir's back was full of flags.

The relocation of the school, the impact of the Kaedwen and Aedirn Wars, the hostility of the Ban Ard wizards, and even the Wild Hunt who flew away to an unknown place...

Where did Vesemir get the confidence to say "take a break for half a year"?
However, the master demon hunter looked pale and exhausted, as if he had just fought a thousand and one nights with some monster.

Ailin did not correct it at this time.

After sighing in his heart, he followed everyone towards the Guhai Fortress.

The hill we were teleported to was not far from the fortress, and we arrived there not long after.

"Huh?" Vesemir, who was walking in front, suddenly let out a sound of surprise.

"Is this... Kaer Morhen?"
