Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf

“Bang!”

After all, it was just a demarcation of the apprentice training ground. The wooden fence of the training ground had no blocking effect. Aristo was knocked upside down and smashed towards Vesemir.

Then, under Vesemir’s astonished eyes, he was hit by him unexpectedly, and smashed him against the wall of the apprentice training ground.

To be honest.

Although Aristo was knocked away very quickly, he had time to dodge because he was not close to Vesemir and they were looking at each other.

But considering that dodging under the gaze of such an apprentice, it would be too embarrassing.

Moreover, with Aristo’s own strength, in a training rather than a life-and-death duel, he did not lose consciousness, and he would definitely be able to stabilize his body quickly.

This is the basic skill of a demon hunter.

Otherwise, if he encounters a demon like the vampire girl who is good at speed, wouldn’t he be unable to fight back after being knocked away and could only wait to die?

Therefore, Vesemir not only did not dodge, but instead put his hands behind his back, looking unfathomable.

He watched Arestor being knocked away, hitting the fence, and rapidly enlarged in front of his eyes.

By the time Vesemir realized that something was wrong, it was too late.

"Bang~"

The shock wave of the broken Quen seal suddenly erupted, interrupting his instinctive panic dodge.

Before he could adjust his posture in time, Arestor's body followed the shock wave and hit him.

Vesemir was hit and lifted off the ground with almost no resistance.

"Bang~"

Like a big bell being struck.

The heavy object hit the hard wall beside the training ground hard.

Then it uttered two muffled groans at the moment of hitting, split into three, and fell to the ground.

"Cough cough~"

Vesemir coughed twice, brushed off the wood fragments on his body, stood up and patted the dust and wood chips on his shoulders.

Arestor was still sitting on the ground at this time, and it seemed that he had no intention of getting up.

His eyes were empty and his brows were furrowed. I don't know what he was thinking.

Fortunately, the demon hunter masters' physiques were very high. Even if they didn't have time to attach the Quen seal, they could withstand such a collision with their bodies.

Otherwise, if it were ordinary people or the apprentices present, at least a few bones would be broken.

At this moment.

"Aristo... Master Aristo was knocked away!"

Amid the staggering and anxious footsteps, an apprentice shouted in surprise.

Suddenly.

There were bursts of exclamations from the direction of the training ground.

Due to their lack of strength, the apprentices who couldn't see the battle scene from beginning to end looked at each other in disbelief.

"So... it was Ai... Captain Ailin who won?"

"Of course! You don't know how strong the captain is. When I heard the captain say 'I'm going to be serious too', I knew this duel was a sure thing!"

"Yes! The essence of the water ghost, the mountain trial, the new seal and the potion... The captain has never let us down..."

Amid the noise, Erni and Klar, who had always supported Ailin, took the opportunity to encourage him.

This made Vesemir, who had just stood up from the ground, determined, but not long after, the scope of the apprentices' general discussion suddenly expanded inexplicably for some reason.

"Not only Master Aretos, but also Master Vesemir was knocked down by the captain..."

"Yes, I saw it too. Master Vesemir was also knocked down by Captain Aylin and crashed into the city wall. I didn't expect the captain to be so powerful that he could fight two demon hunter masters who were dozens of times older than him..."

"Uh... this doesn't seem to count, right? Master Vesemir didn't participate in the duel..."

"But Master Vesemir was indeed knocked down, and he was knocked down by the aftermath of the battle..."

"Shh! Stop talking, the demon hunter masters are very sensitive..."

The boiling noise suddenly stopped.

Yes.

The demon hunter masters are indeed very sensitive.

This can be seen from the dark expression on Vesemir's face.

But he obviously wouldn't bother with a few apprentices. Instead, he looked down at Arestor, who seemed to have not recovered from the defeat just now, and stretched out his hand to pull him up from the ground in a bad mood:

"Did you do that on purpose just now?"

"You have a chance to stabilize your body and stand up decently, but you have to drag me to suffer and embarrass yourself?"

Aristo came back to his senses after hearing this.

He glanced at Vesemir, said nothing, and tilted his head to look at the center of the training ground.

The smoke and dust there has not disappeared yet.

I don't know what Aylin is thinking. He has already won, but Alder didn't disperse the smoke and dust, or walk out of it.

"Is there any side effect of the move that just defeated me?"

Recalling the ominous red light reflected in the pair of sapphire-like cat eyes, Arestor guessed in his heart.

But what exactly is that?

A golden-haired monster bigger than a dragon... and a terrifyingly powerful pressure...

What kind of monster is that? I've never seen it before...

Aristo is very sure of this, recalling the monsters he has hunted in the past.

There has never been such a monster in the history of the northern continent... or even the entire world...

Could it be that Vesemir and his companions encountered a new monster after they came down the mountain this time?

As a master demon hunter, Aristo, who is rare in hunting monsters as a hobby and takes hunting more powerful and rare giant monsters as an honor, even forgot about his failure for a moment.

All he wants now is to know the name of the majestic and beautiful monster he just saw?

Where can I find it?

What preparations do I need to make if I want to hunt it?

If he hadn't hunted most of the monsters on the northern continent, those powerful monsters in the past were gradually extinct, and even the giant dragons had lost their traces for unknown reasons.

How could he, who has always been belligerent, be willing to accept the chief's commission and take care of the child for more than half a year...

Aristo turned his head and looked at Vesemir, about to ask.

after all.

Even if he doesn’t know why Aylin can learn...or create and cast such...spells that can simulate the illusion of monsters...

But that move just now must have a lot to do with the monster vision Aristo saw...

Vesemir, who has been with Aylin all this way, must know some news.

But before he could speak.

Vesemir, who was looking at the training ground, also withdrew his gaze, looked at him and asked curiously:

"How did you lose?"

Aristo's face suddenly darkened when he heard this, and his eyebrows tightened.

Vesemir is really... still so annoying...

But it was understandable to ask this question. After all, the battle between him and Aylin didn't last long, and the moments that really determined the outcome were all in the smoke.

No matter how high the demon hunter's perception is, he will definitely not be able to see what is happening in the smoke...

but……

Just as Aristor was patiently recalling the process and replying to Vesemir, he discovered a problem...

Damn he doesn't even know how he lost...

The spinning slash hit him but was inexplicably deflected, the powerful pressure and illusion that appeared inexplicably, and the sword that struck from behind that somehow eluded his perception...

When he recalled the battle just now, Aristo's expression turned gloomy.

It’s okay if you lose, you don’t even know how you were defeated…

What a shame...

Even more shameful.

When Aristo thought about it, he suddenly discovered a problem.

Vesemir, a person who has been following Aylin, wouldn’t he know how I lost?

The strange vision of the golden-haired giant beast and the furious roar just now were so obvious.

He clearly did it on purpose.

This damn bedwetting bastard was showing off to him that he had taken on a monster apprentice.

"Hmph~"

Aristor snorted coldly, glared at Vesemir, and was no longer ready to ask him about the golden beast. He dusted off the dust and sawdust on his body and walked towards the training ground.

Vesemir was left alone, looking at Aristor's back, scratching his head inexplicably, and muttered:

"Even if you lose five bottles of old rules, you won't be so embarrassed."

After Aristo's keen sense captured these words, he stepped on the ground harder.

…

at the same time.

In the smoke and dust that filled the training ground, a figure hunched over, covering his face with the lining of his leather armor, gasping loudly. After a while, he gradually recovered and straightened up.

"The weak state of 'Beast Roar: Fury' is really exaggerated..." Aylin let out a long breath.

This is the first time he has used "Beast Roar: Fury", but it is not the first time he has used skills such as roar.

When he first obtained the predecessor of "Beast Roar: Fury", "War Cry: Fury", he found an opportunity to test it, but compared with today's sequelae, it simply didn't look like an extension of the same type of skill.

It took him nearly ten minutes to use the war cry. Afterwards, he was just as exhausted as if he had run a thousand meters in the body of an ordinary person in his previous life.

I am very tired, I can't lift my limbs, and I am so weak that it affects my fighting ability, but at least when I encounter a crisis, I can still fight if I squeeze in.

Moreover, using the water ghost's heart essence, which can restore physical strength, can also slow down the duration and effects of the weak state.

But the roar of the beast is different.

Completely different.

He was furious for less than ten seconds. After it was over, he looked as if he had just died and been fished out of the River Styx.

The violent state has just been cancelled.

All the limbs and muscles were spasming wildly. He was dizzy and his vision went dark for several seconds.

Like a sudden severe injury and heavy bleeding.

In this state, let alone fighting, it is difficult to stand firm.

After taking two more breaths, Aylin thought and opened the Demon Hunting Notes.

[Name: Aylin]

[Health: 70%, physical strength 24/650, magic power 520/730]

[Attributes: Strength 61, Agility 60, Constitution 65, Perception 68, Mystery 73]

…

really!

Not only was all his physical strength depleted, but his health and magic power were also reduced by 30%.

"Fuck, luckily I felt something bad. Otherwise, if it had lasted another twenty seconds, I would have died immediately..."

Aylin couldn't help but cursed in his mind.

But to be honest, although "Beast Roar: Fury" and "War Cry: Fury" weaken the negative effects of the status, they are very different.

But the positive effects of the violent state are also ridiculously strong.

There were three syllables in total, and Ailin only shouted two, and he held back on those two syllables considering the warning in the skill notes, and he defeated Arestor, who had difficulty resisting before.

Recalling it.

The feeling of being filled with abundant power, the overall combat power increased by at least four times.

And the protective effect that was not even on the skill panel was surprisingly good.

Originally, the repulsion effect in the battle cry could only push the enemy away, but in the beast roar, it actually directly bounced a battle-hardened demon hunter master away.

It was even more powerful than the deliberately used Alder Seal.

In general.

Although it was a bit risky, Ailin was very satisfied with the skill "Beast Roar: Fury".

"It's a pity that the Beast Roar skill can't be upgraded with experience beads. Controlling the duration and strength of the Beast Roar requires practice by yourself..."

"And without levels, I don't know how to increase the duration of the berserk state..."

"Oh right..."

Alin suddenly remembered that "Beast Roar: Berserk" also has a passive maintenance state that can slowly enhance strength, agility and constitution attributes.

I tried it once when I first got this Beast Roar yesterday morning.

It's just that the way its power operates is too difficult and complicated, and time is relatively rushed. I'm in a hurry to return to Kaer Morhen, so I haven't used it completely.

Of course.

I didn't expect the effect of "Beast Roar: Berserk" to be so amazing. Obviously, the effect of "War Cry: Berserk" only improves combat power by 50%, otherwise it would have to be run completely.

"Perhaps this passive daily maintenance effect can increase the duration of the berserk state?" Alin speculated in his heart.

What a pity.

The dust stirred up by the battle gradually disappeared, and the scene outside the training ground gradually became clear.

Obviously.

Now is not the time to get familiar with new skills.

"Da Da Da~"

The footsteps mixed with the noise of the apprentices came.

After seeing the outline of the figure clearly, Aylin remembered that there was still a problem waiting for him to solve...

The day after returning to Kaer Morhen, he beat up the senior of the school, the deputy leader of the Demon Hunter Corps who had worked hard to help him train apprentices for half a year, in front of so many apprentices.

Is this... a bit too much?

Thinking of this.

Aylin hurriedly took a few steps.

After walking out of the dust and fog, he saw his deputy leader Aretos with a dark face, stomping on the ground with force, and looking aggressive.

Not good...

Aylin's heart "stomped".

In the public eye, "knocking away" a demon hunter master who was quite prestigious in the school, this behavior was indeed a bit excessive.

But he had no choice.

Just using "Beast Roar: Violence", his physical fitness suddenly improved, and he was able to restrain his own surge in strength.

In the case of breaking through the Quen Seal, it was not easy to just knock Arestor away.

Of course.

Even so, he still had to apologize.

Otherwise, who would help him take care of the children in the future?

Therefore.

After considering his words, Ailin took a few quick steps and went forward, then said sincerely:

"Sorry, Master Arestor..."

"It's okay!" Before he finished his apology, Arestor raised his hand to interrupt him.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he asked:

"Ai... Ailin, what kind of monster was that golden-haired beast just now?"
