Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf

"Young man, come in quickly!"

Granny Asha glanced at Aylin with a smile.

In another perspective.

The elf "Grandma Asha" lowered her gaze to look at the mirage on Aylin's chest, put her long and smooth index finger against her mouth, and made a gentle gesture to silence.

Aylin was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously glanced at Francesca and nodded.

Granny Asha smiled even more, took Ailin's arm, and welcomed him into the room.

Entering the room, Aylin immediately saw the old man lying on the bed.

He was as skinny as a stick and looked sluggish, but his eyes were exceptionally clear, as if the pure eyes of a young man were on the face of an old man.

He was looking at Granny Asha with loving eyes, watching her come back step by step.

And unlike Granny Asha, this old man is real, not an illusion.

He is an old human male.

What surprised Aylin even more.

From the magic perspective of the wolf emblem, although the end point of the black magic point was obscured by the quilt, it seemed to be on the person's chest.

Who are these two people?

No!

Should I say who are this human and the elf named Granny Asha?

Aelin was confused.

[Ada Emin: Find a human couple in the village near Ben Ard and help them leave Kaedwen safely! 】

[Ai Lin: There are human couples everywhere here. Where can we find them? 】

[Ada Emin: You'll know when you meet them! 】

The words of the red-haired elf suddenly came to mind.

Aylin looked at the old man and Granny Asha.

He had a strong hunch that the "human" couple he was looking for were the two people in front of him.

Granny Asha, in particular, has the ability to simulate the illusion of the entire Orchard, and her status among the elves must be very prominent, so it makes sense for Ada Emin to come to the rescue.

only……

Can the Baiguoyuan in the fantasy world also be regarded as a village near Ban Ade?

If he hadn't possessed the ability of the wolf emblem, who would have thought that the village where the "human couple" was hiding was actually in an abandoned mine.

[Aylin: Who are you? What commission? Why are you looking for me? 】

[Ada Emin: Destiny chose you. 】

Destiny chose me...

Destiny...

Aelin couldn't help but sigh.

Is Ada Emin a prophet?

In the original book, although she is Ain Savini, it seems that Aylin has never seen her show the ability to predict.

And if Ada Emin was really that powerful, how could the elves of Flower Valley be abandoned after they were wantonly used by Nilfgaard?

Aylin shook his head in his mind, no longer thinking about these questions for which he could not figure out the answers for the time being.

The key now is to get these two people out of Kaedwen.

Aylin glanced at the old man who was seriously ill in bed and seemed unable to even get up, and thought to himself:

"You are so weak, can you leave here through the portal?"

"Sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I won't get up to greet you."

Seeing Aylin and Francesca walking in, he smiled kindly.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Aelin and Francesca shook their heads.

"Asha, I remember that the Viscount gave us two cakes this morning. Take them out quickly and invite the two distinguished guests to try them."

"Okay, okay."

Grandma Asha patted the bedding on the old man's body as if coddling a child, and smiled kindly at the two people who looked at a loss.

Then he took out two pieces of cream cake from the cabinet next to him, placed them on the table, and greeted Aylin and Francesca warmly.

Grandma Asha looks like a kind grandmother from an ordinary family now.

It was a rare visit to the house for a little guest, so I happily took out all the snacks and food that I would usually be reluctant to eat.

Just from Aylin’s mirage perspective,

The role of "grandma" has changed from the appearance of an old lady to a young and beautiful female elf, which seems a bit inconsistent.

"No need, A...Mother Asha."

"We came here to..."

"Eat the cake first!" Aunt Asha interrupted Francesca's hurried words.

The tone is gentle but cannot be refuted.

Francesca's words were stagnant, and after looking at the expressionless Aylin, she could only do as she was told.

The cake is not an illusion, it is very fragrant and sweet.

It's true that the witchers and elves haven't eaten all day.

Therefore, under the kind eyes of the two old people, it only took them three minutes to finish the whole cake.

"Aunt Asha, are you the master of this illusion?"

Francesca asked nervously, holding her clothes.

Aunt Asha smiled and nodded.

When Francesca heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up and she asked impatiently:

"Then do you know an elf named Sadia? She has the same blue eyes and dark golden hair as me..."

The more Francesca described it, the weirder Aylin's expression became.

Isn't this what Grandma Asha looks like in her fantasy?

However, the elf who looked very similar to Francesca would cast glances from time to time, making him afraid to remind him aloud.

At this moment.

"Sorry, I made you laugh!"

A voice like a whisper in the breeze sounded from Aylin's mind.

He was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and met a pair of blue eyes.

At some point, the illusion on Grandma Asha was lifted.

Aelin instinctively glanced at Francesca.

"Valley Daisy" was still trying her best to describe Shadia's appearance to Granny Asha.

"Don't worry, Enid can't see us."

Enid?

Is this Francesca's nickname?

"No, this is Enid's original name. Her ancient name is Enid Ann Galina, which means 'Valley Daisy'."

Um?

How did valley daisies come about?

He always thought it was describing Francesca's beauty, like the daisies blooming in the valley.

Aylin was stunned for a moment.

It is known that Granny Asha and Francesca look similar, Granny Asha also knows Francesca's original name in ancient language, and Francesca is looking for an elf.

Push directly...

"So you are the Sadia that Francesca is looking for?"

Grandma Asha smiled meaningfully.

"That's not what you want to ask."

Aylin's face turned red, he cursed in his mind about the damn mind-reading skills, and then he immediately cleared his mind.

"But... yes, I am the elf Enid is looking for, and I am also Enid's biological mother - Sadia Ann Galina."

Sadia held up the hem of her burlap skirt and bowed towards him, like a real elf princess.

Enid's biological mother?

Aylin was stunned.

He glanced at Francesca and then at the old man on the bed, the expression on his face was a little complicated for a moment.

Although he thought of this possibility, being admitted by the person involved still made Ailin feel awkward and didn't know what to say.

No wonder Francesca only said she was looking for an elf, but not who she was looking for.

"Um...Thank you, madam, for helping me heal my injuries the past few days..." Aylin laughed dryly.

"You're welcome, Enid did most of the work, and..."

"Besides..." After glancing up and down with her eyes, Sadia continued: "Looking at the status of your reply, maybe we don't need to work there in vain, right?"

"Besides...what is your relationship with Enid?"

"Are they really siblings? Why don't I remember having a witcher child?"

Transformation from Granny Asha to Sadia.

Francesca's biological mother even spoke in a more direct tone.

Aylin couldn't take it anymore.

Under Sadia's playful gaze, the demon hunter's scalp went numb.

Who would have thought that Francesca would come up with such an excuse. The key thing is that the identity of the target is so... sensitive.

wrong……

This is what Francesca said. What are you asking me for?

Aylin could only say haha ​​and change the topic to the right track:

"Ms. Sadia, I am Aelin, a demon hunter from the Wolf School."

"The elven sage Ada Emin has entrusted me with the task of getting you and this... er... gentleman safely out of Kaedwen."

"As for Francesca... we just happened to run into each other outside the mine. We were traveling together because of some... um... accidents."

"Did we just meet by accident?" Sadia seemed to have only heard the last words of the demon hunter, "But the way Enid changed your bandages, boiled medicine, and wiped your body was not like a companion who met by accident. Simple."

Aelin was silent.

Francesca probably did this out of guilt.

After all, most of Aylin's injuries were caused by her recklessness.

If it weren't for the "hot bath" given by the mountain stone, the two of them would have passed through the rock troll's cave.

But then again.

If he could pass so easily, perhaps it would not be the rock trolls who would face those soldiers, but him and Francesca.

It's not necessarily easier than now.

But with Sadia, Aelin doesn't need to be so clear.

"Stop joking, Ms. Shadia."

"Kedwin's army has already fought against the rock trolls outside, and it won't take long for them to fight back."

"We'd better find a way to evacuate quickly."

With that said, Aylin took out the last bottle of "Green Sigh" from the reagent bag and said:

"This bottle of magic potion is called 'Green Sigh'. It can quickly repair your injuries. Please give this gentleman a quick drink, and then we will leave through the portal."

This was the only way he could think of to let the frail old man leave through the portal.

Although the green sigh is precious, it is obviously not as important as the friendship of the elves.

"Green Sigh can indeed heal Hod physically, allowing him to pass through the portal."

After pondering for a moment, she shook the delicate crystal bottle slightly and asked:

"What's your relationship with Vera?"

"I learned alchemy and ritual from Ms. Vera..." Aylin was stunned for a moment, "But these are not important now. Let him take the potion quickly, and let's leave as soon as possible."

Of course he was curious about the relationship between the elf in front of him and Vera.

But now is not the time for small talk or relationship building.

Three days ago, Kaedweni's army had not realized that their target lay in the mines where they were stationed.

That's not necessarily the case now.

Aylin was afraid that the king and wizard would have reacted now and used magic to seal off the area, making it impossible to teleport.

"Let Francesca take you out with her." Sadia shook her head and returned the green sigh to Aylin.

"What's the meaning?"

The witcher frowned and didn't answer.

"Melesco's Ring of Resentment, this is an evil sacrificial device used for tracking," Shadia sighed: "The living sacrifice in pain, and the demons are reborn in resentment..."

"In order to catch us, the King of Kaedwen and the wizards of Ban Ade joined forces to slaughter Viscount Hudson's castle."

"Countless humans in the castle died and turned into demons under the wizard's ritual."

"Their resentment was absorbed by Melesco's Ring of Resentment. As long as we leave this Viscount Hudson's abandoned mine, we will be tracked by Melesco's Ring of Resentment."

"I can still escape alone, but Hod... Hod can't withstand two portals."

"Wait," Ailin caught the key point, "What if all the demons in the castle are dead?"

"All dead?" Shadia didn't understand.

"They were all destroyed," Ailin explained. "A few days ago, I and a master demon hunter from the Wolf School cleared all the demons in Viscount Hudson's castle."

Shadia's eyes lit up, but then she became a little skeptical:

"Did you clear them all?"

"If I remember correctly, as long as more than five demons are cleared, Melesco's Ring of Wrath will react violently within a day."

"Ban Ade's wizard will come here immediately after receiving the news. You..."

Ailin was stunned when he heard this.

"It only took us half a day to clean up the Viscount's castle."

Seeing that the doubtful look on Shadia's face had not subsided.

"This is impossible!"

"To eliminate demons, we can only rely on silver and spirit body dissolution. There are as many as forty or fifty demons in the castle..."

Ailin did not argue, and immediately recalled the scene where he and Vesemir collected and buried the bones of the victims in the castle.

Shadia's voice stagnated.

Ailin also recalled the battle memory of eliminating demons after applying ghost oil.

"What kind of potion is this?"

"It only took three swords to destroy the demon spirits!"

Shadia was surprised.

"Ghost oil, a trick of the demon hunter, but these are not important. The most important thing now is that without those demon spirits, can you leave?"

Shadia lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then nodded.

She held the "Green Sigh" and walked to the old man.

"Hey~"

For some reason, after Shadia sat down, she sighed, then lifted the old man's body and gave him the potion.

At this time.

Francesca also stopped communicating with the illusion of Aunt Asha.

She walked to Aylin in disappointment, lowered her head, and seemed to have not gotten a good result.

"What's wrong?" Aylin asked.

"Nothing, it's just that I made a mistake again this time. It seems that the prophet in other people's mouths is not always effective, right?" Francesca squeezed out a smile.

Aylin couldn't bear it, and instinctively looked at Shadia.

But he saw Shadia shook his head firmly at him.

"Let's not talk about me. Have you found your target?" Francesca asked.

After all, this is someone else's family affair.

And Francesca may not be willing to hear the news about her mother in this way and in this scene.

So.

Ailin was silent for a moment, looked at the old man who had already stood up from the bed, and nodded:

"Well, I found it. I will trouble you later to help me escort them out of Kaedwen."

After Francesca nodded subconsciously and agreed, she suddenly realized a problem:

"What about you?"

"Aren't you going with us?"
