You call this a black hand?

Mellen originally had no intention of hiding the fact that he had killed a middle-aged wizard with a sword not long ago in front of Mrs. Chelsea.

After all, this matter was already seen by her daughter at the time, and now she lied about it. Whenever the mother and daughter talk about the rescue process after they return, they will inevitably mention this truth.

However, when Mellen saw his wife's expression suddenly becoming serious, he suspected that this ability... might have some other hidden meaning?

"Tonight, a wizard is chasing her, and then, um..."

Mellen's answer was slightly hesitant, as if he didn't know what to say.

But it can also be interpreted as being scared.

Ambiguous.

Mrs. Chelsea subconsciously understood Mellen's expression as the latter.

"People who can easily break through the wizard's protection through non-magical means are called hunters. They are very united and generally organized."

As she said this, her serious expression softened.

"But since he rescued Alyssa, it proves that the person is not in the enemy camp, he may just be passing by."

It is indeed passing by...

Mellen heard this and thought to himself, but on the surface he asked curiously: "Hunter? Are you hunting?"

"He is a person who is good at hunting."

"Hunting what?"

"Characters, wizards, sirens, and even gods."

The lady replied: "Or you can also understand this profession as a person who is responsible for killing."

"Sounds awesome?"

"Don't worry, they are indeed very powerful."

"But, why haven't I heard any relevant news before..."

"Because this profession is almost extinct."

The lady said calmly: "It takes a very long time for a hunter to practice, and in the early stages there is not much difference from ordinary people."

"The emergence of firearms has given some junior hunters no advantage over ordinary people. As a result, the inheritance will naturally be difficult to continue."

After saying that, seeing Meren's curious look on his face, the lady thought for a while and simply sat back on the sofa again, deciding to give him some popular science.

"The heyday of the hunter profession was a thousand years ago. At that time, the number of wizards was rare and they were not yet the mainstream of the world. It can even be said that wizards were like rats on the street in that era. Everyone shouted for them to be beaten, and they were hunted down by hunters."

"sound……"

Mellen asked thoughtfully: "A bit like a product of the medieval church?"

This world also has the concept of "the Middle Ages", which is roughly classified as a period of more than three thousand years ruled by two major churches.

"That's right."

Mrs. Chelsea nodded.

"The Church of the Night and the Sun God Cult gave birth to many extraordinary professional systems during their rule, but the most famous are knights and hunters."

"The former is responsible for guarding churches and temples in various places, while the latter is dedicated to hunting down monsters and evil gods that were spread all over the world at that time. You can simply understand them as the spear and shield in the hands of the church."

"However, since the demon tide receded and the two major churches fell apart, the professions of hunter and knight have become increasingly rare."

"But being rare doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If you encounter a hunter above the junior level who is your enemy, remember to run as far as you can."

"Is it so exaggerated?" Mellen was surprised when he heard this.

He doesn't think he is that powerful? Is it because he lacks skills?

"The most famous hunter alive is named Granny Caesar. He is known as the Hand of God. He is the most trusted friend of Pope Chris VI and the deputy commander of the contemporary Holy Legion."

Mrs. Chelsea said: "He has many achievements. The most famous one is that after the Tower of the Abyss, the largest prison in the wizarding world, was captured ten years ago, he single-handedly killed nearly ten top wizard fugitives and hundreds of secondary criminals. He was later arrested.

The International Confederation of Wizards has awarded him the position of Honorary Vice President."

A "layman" was awarded the position of industry vice president by an insider...

Mellen was secretly shocked when he heard this, and thought it was really weird.

"There are about four or five hunters who are more famous than Caesar, the most typical of whom is a truth believer named Guderian."

Mrs. Chelsea continued: "He doesn't have many achievements, but his title is God Killer."

"Has he killed a god?"

"Corrigan, the god of poison and disease, was awakened from his slumber a few years ago by some of his crazy followers by spreading plague. As a result, he ran into Guderian who was passing by, so he was beaten back to life just after he woke up.

It’s in a state of deep sleep.”

"In this case, he is not considered a slayer of gods, right?"

"Only when all believers die, will the gods completely fall."

Mrs. Chelsea patiently explained:

"So although we call people who defeat gods as god-slayers, there are very few people in history who can really destroy gods, because no one has the time or energy to kill all the believers of a certain god from all over the world.

find out."

"That's it..."

Meren understood what he said, and then asked curiously, "So, how do hunters practice?"

"You actually already have their practice methods."

"Breathing technique?"

"Yes, the end point of breathing method practice is the wizard, and hunters and knights are the extraordinary professions derived from this process."

"In this case, shouldn't wizards be stronger than hunters?"

"To be precise, the first generation of wizards who practiced breathing techniques to the extreme and then transformed themselves into wizards were stronger than the hunters."

Mrs. Chelsea shook her head and said: "But today's wizards, including you and me, all have wizard talents inherited through blood reproduction. Although their physical fitness is stronger than ordinary people, they are completely different from the first generation of wizards."

"So at the same stage, in terms of lethality alone, wizards cannot compare to hunters."

"However, due to lack of means, it is actually difficult for hunters to completely kill a wizard."

At this point, the lady paused and said:

"The breathing method I gave you before, when you enter the door one day, you can actually try to practice some hunter abilities, so that you will have a great advantage when facing wizards of the same level.

"

"But isn't that breathing method used for knight training?"

The topic is getting closer and closer to the "truth", and Mellen's heart beats a little faster.

"That's what's so precious about it."

The lady spoke earnestly and sincerely: "The Sun Knight Breathing Technique is the core secret book of the Church of the Sun God. Don't treat it as some third-rate book. It is very complicated. You must study it carefully and never slack off."

Meren nodded obediently when he heard this, and then asked casually: "So, if you practice that breathing method to the extreme, does it mean that the practitioner is actually qualified to become a top hunter?"

"Then they are no different from the first generation of wizards. They are called saints walking in the world. Not only are they powerful in hunting, but they will also progress very quickly on the path of wizards, far surpassing others."

The lady said: "It's just like I told you before, if a person wants to practice the breathing method to the extreme, he needs to accumulate it from generation to generation. After the initial explosion of saints, such people have become very rare."

"Even Caesar, the hand of God, stopped at this last step. Our generation probably won't see any new saints born."

…

Here, the master and the apprentice are communicating face to face about matters related to the breathing method.

Over there, Kevin, who was exhausted after a complicated night, opened the book of secret words, reported tonight's events to his elders, and then quietly waited for the other party's reply.
