Chapter 4: Water Ghost's Treasure Chest

Avoid Vesemir's complicated gaze.

Ailin pretended not to notice anything and lowered his head to study the pattern on Elsa's scabbard.

So serious that it seems as if the ultimate truth of all things is hidden in the patterns.

Turning his gaze back, Vesemir looked at the future generations of the Wolf School with a headache.

Platinum, dark red, emerald green.

Three pairs of round cat eyes fixed their gazes on Vesemir's face.

“The school doesn’t say that I have to pay for my apprentices’ education, does it?” Vesemir thought.

The probability of a second apprentice appearing who can slay water ghosts with a steel sword is almost zero.

But what if?
He doesn't have a second Elsa.

As for breaking the oath?

Even a demon hunter from the Cat School wouldn't be so despicable!

Before he could come up with a solution, the chief spoke up:
"can!"

"As long as you kill the water ghost with your steel sword, my silver sword will be yours."

"That's only one," Hughes asked innocently, "There are three of us."

The chief smiled and said, "Of course, whoever kills it first gets it."

Hughes asked again.

The other apprentices were already scrambling to jump in front of Vesemir.

Vesemir breathed a sigh of relief, nodded gratefully to the chief, and then arranged the order.

If the Chief hadn't come to his rescue, he would have almost pulled out Leto's silver sword.

The farce is over and the practical class is back on track.

Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on the training ground, Ailin breathed a sigh of relief and then silently said in his mind:

"panel."

The translucent panel unfolded, revealing a whole column of system messages.

Looking at the scoring details of the reward settlement, Ailin suddenly felt like he was playing a game and settling a copy in his previous life.

Materials, experience beads and treasure chests, it seems like this is still a third-rate game.

Thinking back to what happened on Blue Star, Ailin sighed.

Although the life of a corporate slave is tiring, it is at least safe.

Living in the world of demon hunters, who knows what awaits you tomorrow?
Monster?

Sorceress?
Or a pitchfork from behind?

Shivering, Ailin gathered his thoughts and focused back on the panel.

Although I don't know how "Demon Hunting Notes" determines the level of water ghosts, but judging from the content of the reward settlement.

Ailin could roughly judge that it was a "monster crusade".

First, give a basic evaluation based on whether the monster was killed.

Then points are added based on the level difference between the monster and Ailin, the killing method, and the completion of the task.

The final amount of spoils depends on the level of evaluation.

but,

The heart essence of a water ghost?

What's the use of this thing?

[Do you want to use "Water Ghost Heart Extract"? ]

The reminder box popped up as Ailin was thinking.

Ailin:?
Can it be used directly?
With some hesitation, Ailin thought for a few seconds and chose to use it.

In an instant, cold liquid flowed down the esophagus from the throat.

A warm current surged from the stomach and spread throughout the body along the blood vessels.

The fatigue from fighting the water ghosts was swept away in an instant.

The body's condition seemed to have returned to that before the battle.

No.

Better than before the battle.

Use your mind to open the character panel.

[Name: Ailin]

【Age: 13】

[Title: Child of Miracle]

【Level: 1】

[Health: 94% physical strength 54/54]

[Attributes: Strength 5.2 (+0.1), Agility 5.3, Constitution 5.4 (+0.2), Perception 6.9, Mysticism 3.1]

【特殊技能：狩魔LV1，鉴定LV1】【技能：狼学派双手剑LV1（0/100）】

【Evaluation: Dish!!!】

Um! ! !
Both strength and physique have increased!
Ailin took another careful look to confirm that the increase in strength and stamina was not an illusion.

Although it is only an increase of 0.3, water ghosts are the most common monsters in this world.

Regardless of which school a demon hunter belongs to, 90% of the first commissions they accept are for these ugly creatures.

One water ghost increases the attribute by 0.3 points, and ten water ghosts can increase the attribute by three points.

And there are more than tens of thousands of water ghosts in this world.

If I kill twenty or thirty water ghosts, will the trial still be difficult?

Thinking of the mountain trial, Ailin calmed down quickly as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him.

What good is there for an apprentice who can't leave Kaer Morhen, no matter how many water ghosts there are in the world?

but,

The substantial improvement in attributes gave Ailin a glimmer of hope despite the threat of death in the mountain trial.

Then look down.

Ailin discovered that the Wolf School two-handed sword did not increase any experience.

Is this because the time to use the skill is too short, or can it only be upgraded with small experience beads?
Demon Hunter's Notes did not respond.

Seeing this, he changed his mind:
"That's right. After all, the original body practiced two-handed sword for nearly ten years before reaching level 1."

"How could anything change in just a few moments?"

Ailin thought for a moment, then continued to sort out his harvest without any hesitation.

After using 10 small experience beads continuously, the Wolf School two-handed sword was directly upgraded to the next level.

The muscles all over my body twitched slightly, and some new knowledge appeared in my mind.

In a daze.

It seemed that Ailin had practiced swordsmanship for two years under the guidance of a witcher master, and had gone through another year of actual combat.

The coordination of the whole body and the efficiency of strength utilization have been greatly improved.

At the same time, the character level on the panel also increased by one level.

"what!"

A scream interrupted Ailin's aftertaste.

Aelin looked up.

Not far away, a steel sword lay quietly on the ground.

The first apprentice was defeated.

Laito had a blank expression on his face as he carried him towards Aelin.

The apprentice's face, stained with dust, was filled with reluctance and disbelief.

His right arm hung limply, probably dislocated.

"Alin," Xius asked nervously, picking up the pebbles on the ground, "how did you do it before?"

Just as Ailin was about to pass it off, Vesemir called out:

"Next, Bunter."

Following the sound, Arlin found Vesemir teasing the water ghost.

It's a tease indeed.

Without even drawing his steel sword, Vesemir relied solely on his steps to dodge the water ghost's attacks while firmly grasping the monster's hatred.

He is worthy of being called the Master Demon Hunter.

Ailin thought.

Then he had an idea and gave Vesemir an appraisal.

[Name: Vesemir]

[Attributes: Strength 46, Agility 57, Constitution 65, Perception 70, Mysticism 41]

What kind of monster is this? It’s so terrifying?
Ailin couldn't help but gasp.

The lowest strength attribute is 46, nine times that of Ailin.

You know, although "Ailin" is only 13 years old, his physical fitness after the Green Grass Trial has definitely reached the level of an ordinary person in his previous life. In fact, in all aspects, he is much stronger than the one in his previous life who often had to work overtime and drink.

Surprised, Ailin used his skills to sweep over several demon hunters.

【Name: Leto】

[Attributes: Strength 28, Agility 34, Constitution 57, Perception 61, Mysticism 15]

Adult demon hunters all have similar attributes to Leto.

The lowest one has a strength of over twenty.

"Are the demon hunters in the game so powerful?" Ailin fell into deep thought.

With such powerful attributes, how could a demon hunter be killed by a farmer's pitchfork?
