Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf

Chapter 144 Black Unicorn

Vesemir muttered.

After hesitating for a moment, he put his hands on the table and prepared to get up and go to the bar.

"Dong~dong~dong~"

Amidst the heavy footsteps, three knights wearing yellow bottoms and black unicorn capes walked in from the door of the hotel.

The noisy hotel suddenly became quiet.

However, the silence only lasted for a moment before it became noisy again.

Of course, the sound still changed from a roar of people to a whisper.

"Strange! Don't these ordinary people know the king's personal guards?" Hughes muttered in confusion.

This is obviously impossible.

Even the most ignorant country man must recognize the king's noble family coat of arms.

Such a reaction can only show that these king's guards have come to this store not once or twice.

Aylin did not reply to Hughes. His eyes had not shifted since these knights walked in.

He watched the three knights walk into the inn with their heads held high and glanced at them contemptuously.

The leader of the middle-aged knight's eyes lingered on Vesemir and others who were carrying two swords for a moment, and then he asked the innkeeper who walked up quickly to greet him:

"Have you seen any weird people recently? Especially people wearing hoods and deliberately hiding their body shape and appearance."

The innkeeper turned his head and glanced at the demon hunters.

"Honorable Lord Knight, a weird person... Several demon hunters came here yesterday, but I didn't see anyone hiding their appearance..."

After thinking for a while, he added:

"Well...these demon hunters are very well-behaved and haven't caused any trouble."

The middle-aged knight glanced in Aylin's direction again and ordered:

"Continue to pay attention. If you encounter a suspicious person, you will know where to find me."

"Go to work!"

The hotel owner bent over and said yes again and again, and returned to the bar.

He wiped his hands nervously on the canvas apron and fiddled with the cups on the bar, but his eyes remained focused on the door of the hotel.

"Dong~dong~dong~"

The sound of iron boots trampling on wooden boards approached.

A king's guard at the back glanced at the school badge on Vesemir's chest, then he leaned into the middle-aged knight's ear and whispered:

"Captain, they are demon hunters from the Wolf School. They should be here to participate in the Demon Hunter Apprentice Fighting Competition held by the king."

The middle-aged knight nodded, glanced at the young demon hunters Aylin and Hughes, then stared at Vesemir and said:

"Have you encountered any elves or other suspicious people along the way?"

Vesemir shook his head and said nothing.

"If you encounter a suspicious person wearing a hood, you can go to the mayor and inform us." After a pause, the middle-aged knight emphasized in a high manner: "There is a reward."

Vesemir gently stroked the black wide-brimmed hat he put aside with his right hand, raised his head and said:

"The Wolf School abides by its neutrality, and we are only entrusted with hunting monsters."

The knight was silent after hearing this, lowering his head expressionlessly and looking into the dark golden cat eyes.

As the demon hunter and the knight stared at each other longer, the atmosphere in the hotel began to become solemn.

After the king's guards on both sides looked at each other, they quietly placed their right hands on the weighted ball at the tail of the long sword at their waists, looking vaguely eager to try.

It was obvious that they wanted to try it out for themselves, just how powerful the legendary demon hunter was.

When the guests who were dining saw that something was wrong, they quietly put the copper coins on the table and left the hotel as if they were running away without finishing their food.

After a while,

Except for the innkeeper, there were only demon hunters and knights on the entire first floor.

Hughes, who was immersed in drinking soup, realized something was wrong at this moment and quickly put down the black bread in his hand.

Aylin had already extended his right hand under the table, ready to give himself a Quen shield at any time.

He had to be careful.

After all, the nobles in the world of witchers have some weird brain circuits due to consanguineous marriages.

As for the king's personal guards, their requirements for family background are greater than their requirements for swordsmanship and force.

In other words, the three people in front of them are probably the children of the great nobles who are "impunable for murder".

They really dare to take action.

"Knight Sirio..." The innkeeper walked over cautiously, probably trying to smooth things over.

"Hmph~"

The middle-aged knight snorted coldly upon hearing this.

He turned his head and glanced at the owner of the inn, and after realizing that all the guests around him had left because of their confrontation, he turned back and said threateningly to Vesemir:

"'Neutral' demon hunter, stay calm and don't get yourself into trouble!"

Then he left with his two men with regretful expressions on their faces.

When the middle-aged knight turned to leave, Aylin gave him an appraisal.

[Name: Serio]

[Attributes: Strength 35, Agility 34, Constitution 18, Perception 10, Mystery 7]

So high?

Looking at the panel in front of him as the middle-aged knight disappeared, he was stunned.

His own strength and agility are only 32 and 31.

Demon hunters rely on magic potions to transform and mutate. What does this knight named Serio rely on to improve his strength?

But Aylin changed his mind.

In the original work, there was also a bounty hunter named Leo Bonnet who was chasing Ciri.

He once hunted three demon hunters on his own, wore the three demon hunter badges of the wolf, cat, and griffon schools on his chest, and even wanted to hunt the famous white wolf.

It seems that it is not so strange to have humans with attributes that exceed those of demon hunters.

Maybe because the world of witchers is magical?

Or maybe it was a blessing from some god?

After thinking about it, Ailin put these conjectures behind him.

These profound questions have nothing to do with him for the time being.

The most important thing now is that this knight named Serio is only the captain of the King's Guard.

In the entire King's Guard, how many knights are as strong as him?

How many such knights are there under the command of King Kaedwen?

"Sorry... um... I can make up for the loss of the store." Vesemir's words interrupted Ailin's thinking.

"Call me Bob," the innkeeper looked at the empty inn, sighed, and shook his head generously, "No need to make up, the tables and chairs are still there, and no one is injured. It's just a few fewer people eating, no loss."

"As for you, you should be careful in the next few days."

Vesemir nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, we will pay attention."

Ailin suddenly had an idea and asked curiously. "Do these knights come here often?"

Bob was clearing the plates of other guests, glanced at him, and nodded:

"Around the winter solstice, these knights scattered in the towns near Ban Ade, and have been looking for elves."

"It seems that a few were caught last month, but even after they were caught, these knights never left."

"Now they come to ask every two or three days."

"It seems that the King's Guards haven't found the target yet!" Arryn thought.

But is the elf that the King's Guards are looking for related to the human couple that the red-haired elf entrusted to escort?

Vesemir next to him didn't know what Arryn was thinking. He looked at the stew on the plate and looked up and asked:

"By the way, Bob, do you know Viscount Hudson?"
