Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf

Soy was silent.

Vera stood opposite, staring at him quietly.

For a moment, the only sound left in the courtyard was the rustling of the grass and trees in the spring breeze.

I don’t know how much time passed.

A long and lonely sigh sounded.

"I know, Vera, I know..."

The sorceress felt a little sad when she saw Soy shrugging his head.

More than forty years ago.

Her relationship with Soy was still normal.

Although they are not together most of the time, the lovebird has infinitely shortened the distance between them.

He would tell her everything.

So she knows everything about him.

She knew that forty years ago, he saved a mother and her son from the claws and fangs of ghouls and evil spirits in Ad Kalai.

It was only later that the identities of the mother and son were revealed.

The king is dead, and ambitious people persecute orphans and widows, using any means necessary.

With neutrality as his creed, he naturally would not interfere in the government affairs of a country, but he introduced many upright knights, nobles and even wizards to the mother and son.

As a result, mother and son secured the highest position in the kingdom.

In return, he received the goodwill of the land of Kaedwen.

Countless legendary poems are sung in the taverns of this land, the king-maker, the dragon-slayer, the demon-hunter...

No one, noble or common, disrespected him... at least on the surface.

His school also received praise from the kingdom and a large amount of gifts every year for slaying demons and was thriving.

Although……

His help was neither for profit nor for fame.

It's just a knight's undying compassion, and he doesn't want to see anyone relying on the strong to bully the weak.

Thirty years ago.

The mother ages and the children grow up.

In those years, Vera often heard him say in the teaser that he was a resolute and ambitious young king.

He made an agreement with the king to rid the kingdom of harmful monsters.

Let the king’s people walk, farm, and do business on their land openly and openly…

In this way, he led the school through nearly ten years of hard work...

He does what he promises.

So he was also given up.

The young king has become a middle-aged king, and his once innocent but passionate ambition has become ambitious, dirty and bloody.

At some point, he wanted land more than the people on it, wealth more than the people who created it, war more than peace.

His appetite is getting bigger and bigger, his body is getting fatter and fatter, and his desire is getting harder and harder to satisfy.

Until one day, he wanted him to become a soldier, a general, and the sharpest sword in the hand of the king.

Naturally, the two parted ways.

And now.

Not only was he given up, he was to be eradicated.

The child he once saved stretched out the first sword to stab him and his beloved school.

Vera sighed and looked at Soy, whose head was lowered and his face was obscured by shadows.

He was also like this when he was a child, after being scolded by the Duke or Duchess.

Silently and with his head lowered, the little man sat on the stone steps in the corner of the castle.

After hesitating for a moment, Vera stepped forward gently, put her arms around his waist, buried her head in his chest, and said:

"It's okay, Soy."

"You still have Aylin, you still have..."

"……I."

Before she finished speaking, she felt Suo Yi's body tremble and seemed to relax slightly.

"Wei, do I really still have you?"

She nodded: "Yes,..."

After a pause, she raised her head and glanced at Suoyi. After seeing that he was in much better spirits, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart:

Sure enough, no matter how old he is, he is still the little boy who shrinks when sad things happen.

A simple hug can cure everything.

Before Soi's arms came around, the sorceress had calculated it well, and like a light butterfly, she escaped from the embrace in advance.

She chuckled and said:

"...When we find Aelin and successfully overcome the difficulty in Kaer Morhen he dreamed about, you will have it!"

After Suo Yi was stunned for a moment, he also smiled.

He glanced towards where the king was, then back into her dark red eyes.

To him, it was the most dazzling gem in the world.

After clearing away the distracting thoughts in his mind, he sighed deeply and said:

"Ah~"

"Then it will take a long time...a long, long time..."

…

"Eh~"

Looking at the specious sight of the orchard in front of him, Aylin sighed and carefully put the amulet of the goddess Meriteri back into the leather armor.

The matter of the evil god and the goddess Meriteri can only be considered after the apprentice competition.

The most important thing now is to figure out where he is and whether the mission of the red-haired elf Ada Emin can be completed.

After placing the amulet, Aylin suddenly discovered that Francesca seemed to have not made a sound for a long time.

So he turned around and looked over.

In the room filled with the fragrance of herbs, "Valley Daisy" lowered her head and frowned slightly, seeming hesitant and confused.

"What's the matter, Francesca?"

"what's on your mind?"

Aelin asked curiously.

The elf raised his head, carefully observed his surroundings, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said:

"Ai Lin, there is something wrong with this place!"

"Short-distance teleportation, the distance of teleportation is limited. The magic power I convey is only enough to send us within a range of about two hundred meters..."

When Aylin heard Francesca's words, he raised his eyebrows and asked:

"you mean?"

Francesca took a deep breath and said seriously:

"Yes, although due to overdraft, the short-distance teleportation became...well...as you said, random teleportation..."

"But no matter whether you are overdrawn or not, whether you have determined the direction or not, short-distance teleportation is short-distance teleportation, so..."

"So it would be almost impossible for us to leave the cave."

Impossible to leave the cave?

Aelin looked up at the sky.

Lazy clouds lie on the blue bed, and the early spring sun spreads warm golden light to the world.

Obviously, what is above the heads of Aylin and Francesca is not a dark rock wall, but a warm and clear spring sky.

However, he did not refute Francesca because of the blue sky and white clouds above his head.

Not only because of her identity as an elf sorceress, but also because this was another fruit orchard that was similar to the image in his mind, but completely different.

Besides, Aylin was not an ordinary demon hunter who was born and raised and had little experience.

From the original work and the game, he knew that there were many situations that could cause this phenomenon in the Witcher world.

When Francesca saw Aylin looking up at the sky, she thought he didn't believe it, so she hurriedly explained:

"Ai Lin, I know this may be difficult to accept, but your eyes may deceive you, but your magic cannot deceive you. I can feel the mental power being mobilized..."

"I believe you, Francesca." Aylin said.

"Ai Lin, I really didn't lie to you this time...what...what did you say?"

Halfway through the words, Francesca suddenly realized that the witcher was not denying, but agreed with his point of view, and she opened her mouth slightly and asked in surprise.

"I said, I trust your judgment."

"You are a professional sorceress, and spells are your specialty, so I trust your judgment."

Although Aylin believed that Francesca was not the main reason for the judgment.

However, this does not prevent him from brushing up his favor a little and increasing the future Elf Queen's favor towards the demon hunter.

after all.

His main purpose in accepting the red-haired elf's commission was to provide foreign aid to Kaer Mohan.

Ada Emin may represent the present of the elves, but Francesca can completely represent the future of the elves.

After looking at the flush of surprise on Francesca's cheeks and sighing that she was worried about the future of the Wolf School, Aylin asked seriously:

"So what do you think the situation is here?"

"Valley Daisy" touched her hot cheek, her heart felt warm, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously. It took a while to adjust, and she said:

"It's most likely an illusion, but the magic power required may be very large..."

Illusion?

With a thought, Aylin linked the mirage bead.

The scene in front of him instantly became unreal, and even the light from the sun turned into a cold color.

"It's actually an illusion!"

Aylin exclaimed in his mind.

"Secondly, we may have been pulled into the dream of a certain monster or wizard..."

Francesca was still counting her fingers, carefully counting the possibilities.

Aylin has begun to examine the reality behind this illusion.

The house in front of me is fake.

In Mirage Pearl's field of vision, there was only one stone platform within the defined area of ​​​​the house, which was the place where he once slept.

Although I have witnessed in the game the fairy tale kingdom created by the master of illusion magic Artorios Vigo for the two princesses of Toussaint.

But the game is a game, only visual and auditory experience.

And the reality is different.

The contrast between the dusty, desolate slate floor and the translucent cabin filled with various herbs and flowers is obvious.

And under the strong fragrance of herbs that can be smelled in the nose, there is nothing in Mirage's perspective.

Exquisite illusion!

The illusion didn't just trick his eyes.

If it weren't for the mirage bead, his five senses would be immersed in this orchard composed of illusions, and there would be no sense of dissonance at all.

The only regret is that the mirage bead's range of seeing through illusions is limited, and it can only see a radius of about ten meters around the body.

Not far away, more than ten meters away, is a leisurely village scenery of a fruit orchard under the clear sunshine in early spring.

wrong!

Aylin suddenly noticed something unusual.

He saw the bandage on the ground that he had just replaced.

This bandage is not an illusion!

so……

"at last……"

Francesca's pretended to be solemn voice interrupted his thoughts.

After taking a deep breath, she said seriously with her delicate little face:

"Finally, we may have been noticed by the goddess of misfortune during the teleportation three days ago, accidentally entered the intersection of the celestial spheres, and were teleported to other worlds..."

I don’t even feel it when I can’t see my expression when I put on the mask.

A girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, pretending to be mature and serious, looks quite funny.

When Aylin saw this scene, the corners of his mouth curled up subconsciously.

etc!

My body is only fourteen years old!

Do Vesemir and the others treat me the same way when I talk seriously?

Thinking of this, Aylin suddenly couldn't help laughing.

Francesca saw the strange expression on the witcher's face and thought that he was frightened by the possibility that the celestial spheres had converged and strayed into other worlds, unable to return home.

After feeling guilty again, she endured the panic of never seeing her relatives again and comforted:

"Ai...Ai Lin, the intersection of the celestial sphere is the least likely possibility..."

"There has been no celestial convergence in this world for hundreds of years."

"My father... my father once told me that due to some accidents, the passage from this world to other worlds has been blocked."

"Even our cousins ​​of the Ain Sheidi clan, the legendary 'Alder People' Ain El clan, who have the ability to travel through the world, seem to have not appeared in this world for a long time because of this..."

"What kind of accidents are some accidents?" Aylin interrupted with a solemn expression.

Of course he knows that except for the few times caused by Aylin's active and passive actions, there has not been a celestial sphere convergence in this world for a long time.

But the passage to other worlds is blocked?

Is this present in the original novel and the game?

There is also the Ain El clan, also known as the "Wild Hunt". This kind of character is a plot boss in both the original book and the game. How can it be said that it is gone?

Is this the difference between the real world and those in memory?

Or, between now and the beginning of the original book a hundred years later, did something major happen in this world that caused the "Alder People" to reappear in this world?

Francesca was stunned for a moment, not expecting Aylin to be interested in this question.

She frowned and thought about it for a while, then shook her head and said:

"Father didn't tell me."

Aelin sighed regretfully.

Also, how could an elf sage talk about such a big thing to an underage elf?

"However, if you want to know, you can ask my father before I tell you when I go back." The moving voice of the dripping spring in the empty valley sounded.

Aylin followed the sound and saw Francesca looking at him with guilt-filled eyes.

"Thank you, Francesca."

"You're welcome, just consider it a small apology for putting me in danger."

Francesca lowered her head:

"It's just that we still don't know how to get out of here. If we really stray into the intersection of heaven and earth... maybe I can't even give you this apology..."

"It's not the intersection of the heavens and the spheres!"

Aylin suddenly interrupted Francesca.

"Valley Daisy" thought the witcher was comforting her, and nodded with a smile: "Well, it must not be the intersection of the celestial spheres!"

"I'm serious, no one in this world understands the intersection of heaven and earth better than me!" Aylin walked into the "house".

"ah?"

Francesca couldn't figure out what the witcher was talking about and tilted her head in confusion.

Aylin had no intention of explaining it carefully.

After entering the house, he bent down and picked up the bandage that had just been replaced from the ground.

"And, I may... have found a way to leave here..."

Aylin suddenly paused, and he lifted up the bandage stained with dark red blood:

"No, maybe we can find our respective targets and then leave safely."

"ah?"

She could understand every word Aelin said, but collectively she couldn't understand the meaning of his words.

Didn't he just wake up not long ago?

Where is the time to find a way out of here?

Could it be that the person lying in bed unconscious for three days was not the Witcher, but me?

Francesca was a little confused: "What is your target?"

"My human couple, your elf!"
