Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf

After a long time.

Rado opened his eyes.

A middle-aged man with a slightly bent figure was looking at him worriedly.

He was Felice, the most trusted servant of the previous king Hackso.

He was one of the few people Rado could trust in this cold palace.

Unfortunately, Felice was a servant and could only do what a servant could do, which could not help him in his current predicament.

"My father died too suddenly!"

Rado sighed sadly in his heart.

He was a prince, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to take over his father's power in a few days.

But the nobles around him who could give advice were either some villains who curry favor with the powerful, or old foxes like Donato. He couldn't even find a few reliable talents...

The state affairs were difficult!

But when he thought of talents, Rado suddenly remembered his tutor from Toussaint.

He imitated his father's past behavior, tapped the table lightly with his index finger, and asked:

"Philis, have you found Dieter?"

The middle-aged man stepped forward, bowed slightly and said:

"Your Majesty, the people I sent have found Lord Dieter. He is now in Fangerburg in Aedirn and should be back within a month."

Within a month?...

Rado shook his head, it was still too late.

The day after tomorrow is the noble meeting.

At that meeting, the funeral ceremony of the deceased king and the ceremony of Rado's ascension to the throne will be discussed.

The former is no problem, but the latter...

Although his right of succession is irrefutable, it should be just a formality.

But he is always uneasy and worried:

"Will it really be that easy to sit on the supreme throne?"

Philis watched Rado grow up.

He felt a little distressed when he saw the future king frowning, thinking that he was still worried about what Duke Donato had just said, so he advised:

"Your Majesty, one of Duke Donato's grandsons was kidnapped by the Wolf School witcher and died."

"Since your Majesty...your father was planning to deal with them, why not follow his wishes and agree to him."

Rado shook his head:

"Donato didn't want to deal with the witcher for his grandson."

"He has seven or eight sons alone, and the number of grandsons is more than twenty."

"How could he care about a child who was taken to Kaer Morhen because of an accident when he was four or five years old."

"Besides, the child was given to the witcher by his parents in exchange for the commissioned bounty because of poverty."

Rado saw Phyllis's confused look, sighed in his heart, and further explained:

"He did this because of Ben Ade, or some of Ben Ade's wizards."

Phyllis's expression was still very confused.

Although he had been following Haxor, he was only responsible for serving the king's daily life.

He was not really clear about some secrets among the nobles.

"There are many nobles in Donato who followed these wizards and bought a lot of industries..."

"They don't care about their grandchildren who were taken away by some wolf school witchers. They just don't want Ban Ade to get into trouble, and they also want to please some witchers who hate witchers..."

Rado's well-organized analysis made Felix suddenly realize.

He looked at the young king with satisfaction:

"Your Majesty, you know a lot!"

Felix shook his head when he heard it, but didn't say much.

All the Ban Ade faction in the Kaedwen noble group was analyzed by Haxo before he died.

Mixed in these analyses at that time was the information that Duke Donato had many offspring.

It was just that Haxo at that time just used this as an excuse to hint how important it was for a noble to have a flourishing Rado.

He didn't tell him in more depth how to deal with this old fox.

Recalling the past in his mind, Rado was lost in thought for a few seconds.

Haxo may not be a good king, but he is definitely a good father.

He carefully trained Rado to meet the requirements of the future king and answered every one of his questions carefully.

He never had any suspicion or doubt.

If he had not passed away too suddenly, Rado would definitely have been in power steadily under Haxo's careful arrangement.

"But why are you targeting the Wolf School? Didn't the explanation given by the Wizard Academy say that it was done by the Cat School?" Phyllis was a little confused.

Rado was actually not very clear about this.

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said thoughtfully:

"Maybe it's because the Cat School has been completely ruined..."

"I heard that they failed several commissions in Ban Ade in a row, and many people died."

"The entire school may have less than ten people now. Dogs will jump over the wall when they are desperate. There is no need to deliberately target them."

"And this school's reputation in the north has been completely stinking. No nobles or wealthy businessmen dare to hire them openly."

"Natural extinction is the final outcome of the Cat School!"

"So that's it!" Phyllis nodded suddenly.

Although Rado didn't know what he had suddenly realized from his nonsense.

But he still smiled and nodded.

"Your Majesty, you should... or you can follow the wishes of those nobles first, and wait until you completely control the kingdom, and then settle the score later..."

Felice suggested cautiously:

"Even if the late king knew, he would definitely not care..."

Follow the wishes of those nobles?

What do you mean?

Naturally, the blame for the king's death was removed from Ben Ader's head, and then forced to be placed on the Wolf School.

Phyllis was silent.

Doesn't he know?

As long as he no longer insists, he can get the support of all the nobles the day after tomorrow and end the current embarrassing situation.

Ben Ad escaped his guilt, the nobles were satisfied, and Lado successfully ascended the throne...

In the end, it was just a group of demon hunters with high moral standards that were sacrificed...

But what does this have to do with him?

Lado does not care about the life or death of those demon hunters, although due to Dieter's teachings, he does admire the Wolf School's contribution to mankind.

but……

His father is dead...

The death was miserable, horrifying, and extremely dishonorable.

His mother locked herself in a high tower and cried all day long...

Tarado, the future master of Kaedwen, why should he compromise?

How can Ben Ade escape responsibility?

Just to sit firmly on that distinguished chair?

That throne originally belonged to him!

so……

Why! ! !

Lado's face was gloomy, with blazing anger burning in his pupils.

Phyllis, who lowered his head, had not noticed the future king's emotional changes, and continued to persuade and comfort:

"And your Majesty, maybe it really wasn't Ben Ade who did it?"

"After all, they have nothing to gain from the king..."

"In addition to Ms. Vera, the Wolf School may not have other options..."

When Lado heard that his most trusted servants were all speaking for Ben Ad, the anger burning in his heart grew stronger, and he was about to open his mouth to reprimand loudly.

Something suddenly occurred to him, and he suppressed his anger for a moment.

"Phyllis is defending my enemies!"

"So he...is really mine?"

Lado felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and the chill was biting.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they quickly take root.

He suppressed the inexplicable fear, nodded silently, and said calmly:

"Maybe this is a good idea after all..."

"I'll think about it!"

"Thank you, Phyllis!"

"Please don't say that. It's my greatest honor to serve you."

Phyllis bowed slightly and stepped back to his original position.

In fact, he was already offside. After all, he was just a servant.

After all, he had watched Lado grow up, and even if it only had a little effect, Felice wanted to help Lado.

Too bad he didn't notice.

Laka, the child he had watched grow up, his future king, was quietly looking at him and observing him with a particularly strange look.

A fierce light flashed in his pupils.

"Did Ben Ad really gain nothing from his father's death?" Lado began to think deeply.

…

The small stone town of Vergen.

After struggling for a while, after measuring Aelin's measurements, Hogg left Vesemir, Aelin and Mary out of his home after leaving a message of "pick it up in two months."

"Hogg is so happy to see that he is hunting. It is impossible for him to come out of the house until the two months are over."

Vesemir explained to Aelin and Mary with a smile.

"But isn't he the city lord of Vergen? Doesn't he need to come out to handle affairs?" Mary was puzzled.

Walking to the stable, Vesemir shook his head, took the reins and walked out:

"This is not Mahakam after all."

"Hogg is just the honorary city lord. The real ones in charge are the humans sent by the King of Aden."

"If humans couldn't adapt to such a living environment, no noble would be willing to come, and it wouldn't be his turn to be the city lord of this place."

In fact, the disputes between humans and dwarves are far less than those between humans and elves. The root cause is this difference.

That is, the environment that elves can live in can also be lived by humans.

But where dwarves can live, humans may not be willing to settle.

At least in terms of water requirements, the average daily requirement of dwarves is at least two-thirds less than that of humans.

Of course, this is also related to Mahakam's current policy.

It is different from the high-profile attitude of elves looking down on humans and being isolated from humans.

The dwarf settlement headed by Mahakam has always maintained an attitude of integrating with humans.

Although the terrain is high and dangerous, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

But Mahakam has always regarded itself as a vassal state of Temeria. The steel and weapons it supplies are sold to all parts of the world, accounting for a large proportion on the continent.

Many dwarves also moved and integrated well into the local society, working in industries such as mercenaries, craftsmen, and artists.

Many dwarves will even join the local country's noble army to fight.

This is simply an unimaginable thing for the elves.

Along the way.

Mary, who was rarely free, asked Vesemir many similar questions like a curious baby.

Although Mary is not his apprentice, for some reason, the master witcher wearing a black wide-brimmed hat answers all questions.

As for the other young demon hunter master Aylin, he is still immersed in the joy of buying an epic suit for free.

While taking body measurements, he saw the drawings Vesemir had provided to Horton.

Regardless of the style of the equipment or the raw materials, this blueprint is very similar to a school set in the game, almost identical.

That suit has a very simple name - the Grandmaster Wolf School Suit.

This is one of the top two sets of Wolf School equipment in the game.

Alin still remembers that when he was playing the game, he spent nearly a week, traveled all over the game, and reloaded the game several times before he could get this set.

But now he doesn't have to spend a penny, hunt a monster, and only wait for twenty days to get it.

But after recovering from the incredible surprise, Alin felt that this situation was actually normal.

The Wolf School is now at its peak and has no shortage of money.

In addition, there are seven demon hunter masters, and I don't know how many high-level monsters they have to kill every year.

The place with the most top-level monster materials in the world may be Kaer Morhen.

Even the two wizard academies can't compare with them.

How can it be possible to reward an honorary piece of equipment, and I have to go out in the wind and rain to kill monsters in person?

That's too embarrassing.

The reason why the later generations have fallen to the point where they not only have to take commissions to make money to make a piece of equipment, but also have to collect information about the target monsters everywhere, hunt monsters and harvest materials...

If you don't pay attention to the materials, you have to repeat this miserable situation many times...

The main reason is that there is no solid backing.

With only four or five demon hunters in Kaer Morhen, wouldn't it be necessary to go through wind and rain to get a good piece of equipment?

Coming back to his senses from the joy and surprise of the harvest, Aelin led Luobo and suddenly found that they had actually walked to the south gate, as if they were leaving Vergen.

"Master Vesemir, where are we going?" Aylin asked curiously, "Aren't we staying here today?"

Master Vesemir pressed his black wide-brimmed hat and looked at the sky:

"After you get your demon hunter master equipment, we have finished what we need to do here..."

"Vergen is the territory of the dwarves. It is not very comfortable in all aspects and is very expensive."

"It's not even noon yet. Let's go down the mountain and find a human village to rest!"

"If it's still early, we can find some commissions to do..."

Hearing the commission.

Aylin didn't say anything yet.

Mary suddenly straightened her back and pricked up her ears:

"Are you going to adventure and hunt monsters?"

"Hahaha, it's not an adventure, but there may be a lot of commissions for hunting monsters," Vesemir looked in a good mood.

Hearing Vesemir's words, Mary became more interested.

"It may not be the kind of monster you hope to encounter. Most of the commissions are just water ghosts."

Aylin smiled and poured a basin of cold water.

Water ghost?

Mary's face suddenly looked a little ugly.

She was almost vomiting from refining the heart essence of the water ghost, and now she felt a little nauseous when she heard the name of the water ghost.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. Hughes, Bont and Fred are not here. If it's not on the way, why would we accept the commission of the water ghost."

Seeing Mary's low mood, Vesemir glared at Aylin and explained a few words.

But Vesemir was right.

Hunting monsters according to your strength.

If it's not an emergency, or if you really lack that little money.

The master demon hunter naturally can't compete with ordinary demon hunters for food.

Mary heard this and knew that Aylin was teasing her, and she glared at him angrily.

Then she pulled the reins and passed him and Vesemir side by side.

Seeing such a childish look, Aylin was happy to ignore it and followed slowly.

...

That's it.

After leaving Vergen, the three of them rode on horseback and arrived at a small town before nightfall.

But to Mary's great regret, all the commissions in this town were to eliminate water ghosts.

So after resting for a night in the town's inn, they set out on their journey again.

And just half a day after embarking on the journey, Mary's long-awaited accident...

came!
