What Is a Killer Whale?

"My name is Dite, Dite from Toussaint, currently a tutor..."

Tutor...

Vesemir thought.

Being a tutor in the Northern Continent is not an ordinary profession, and ordinary people cannot afford it.

Vesemir carefully observed Dite in front of him.

He is handsome, has a good temperament, is well-mannered and well-spoken, and he comes from the country of knights Toussaint...

To be able to hire such a person as a tutor, he must be a wealthy nobleman.

Tutors of great nobles generally do more than just teach.

They often participate in local government decisions, and even have a much higher status than ordinary minor nobles in the local area because they are close to the great nobles or future heirs.

Vesemir made a judgment.

However, given his status, there was no need to deliberately flatter him. He winked at Ailin and asked him to come over, then patiently listened to Dite's intentions.

After briefly introducing himself, Dite glanced around and suddenly noticed Wolf Emblem on Vesemir's chest, and said in awe:

"It turns out that you are the demon hunter of School of the Wolf. No wonder you can kill such a powerful monster."

"In Toussaint, as early as when I was very young, my mother told me the legend of School of the Wolf..."

"On the top of the towering snow-capped mountains in the north, there is an ancient castle where the most powerful demon hunter in the world lives..."

"They advocate the path of glory and never bully the weak..."

The compliments from Toussaint people to the school made Vesemir raise his chest unconsciously.

At this time, Ailin came over with Mary.

Looking at the sincere and somewhat fanatical expression on the face of Toussaint named Dite, Ailin couldn't help but feel a little awkward at the same time that he was proud of it.

Since going down the mountain.

This was the first time he heard praise for his school of thought from ordinary people.

"Werewolves, vampires, Cyclops, even dragons..."

"No matter how fierce the monster is, it can only be decapitated under the silver sword..."

Dite took a step forward excitedly, held Vesemir's hand excitedly, and said:

"I didn't expect that today, I would be lucky enough to witness School of the Wolf's Witcher Master hunting Greater Griffin..."

"It's not a worthwhile trip, it's not a worthwhile trip!"

Unexpectedly, I met a School of the Wolf fanatic fan of Toussaint.

Vesemir, whose hand was being held, laughed a little uncomfortably, calmly took out his hands, shook his head and said:

"Perhaps you didn't see clearly just now, it wasn't me who killed Greater Griffin..."

Vesemir pulled Ailin over, patted his shoulder and introduced:

"Ailin, School of the Wolf, the youngest Witcher Master in history, it was he who just killed Greater Griffin."

"Besides, do you have any entrustment when you come here?"

After hearing Vesemir's words, Dite subconsciously looked at Ailin's childish face covered in dust and blood.

The expression on his face gradually changed from confusion to shock.

"Ai...Master Ailin?"

Dite's tone was a little uncertain.

He turned his head and looked at Greater Griffin's body, which was as huge as a hill, and then looked at Ailin, who still had a childish look.

He can tell the difference between a griffon and Greater Griffin, so he naturally has a good grasp of Monster Economics.

That's why he knew better how difficult it was to hunt a Greater Griffin.

therefore.

When he just walked over, even though he saw this Witcher Master named Ailin, he was closer to Greater Griffin than the older demon hunter in front of him.

He also subconsciously thought that it was this older demon hunter who hunted Greater Griffin.

Who... who would have thought that it was really him!

He... he's not yet sixteen, right?

Ailin also knows something about the profession of tutor, and knows that Vesemir is "expanding potential customers" for him.

So he didn't say much, just nodded and asked again:

"Excuse me, do you have any entrustment for coming here?"

At this time.

Dite just came back to his senses.

He smiled apologetically and seemed to have calmed down his emotions, but the shock remaining in his eyes could not be concealed:

"Sorry, Ailin...Master Ailin's age and strength are really surprising."

Vesemir and Ailin shook their heads slightly, signaling him to continue speaking.

Dite cleared his throat and said:

"The reason why I came here is to thank you for your life-saving grace."

"If you hadn't lured Greater Griffin away in time, the entire caravan would have been killed by Greater Griffin..."

Vesemir and Ailin were noncommittal upon hearing this.

They all know that the focus must be on the second half.

Sure enough...

Dite paused and pointed to the avenue not far away.

A lot of people were gathering there, some were waking up those who had fainted on the ground, and some were righting the overturned carriage on the ground.

In front of the carriage were the corpses of two horses that had been eaten by Greater Griffin.

That was the caravan that was attacked by Greater Griffin before!

There's a problem!

Vesemir and Ailin looked at each other.

"The caravan that was attacked by Greater Griffin invited me to be a tutor..." Dite's tone paused imperceptibly, "Well... the students sent me to pick me up."

"You are all professional demon hunters. You must know that Greater Griffin usually hunts and survives in the mountains."

"There is no accident. It is impossible to attack a caravan walking near a human city, so..."

"You want us to find out why Greater Griffin attacked you?" Ailin continued.

Although looking at Ailin's exceptionally young face, I still felt a little weird, but Dite didn't show it on his face.

He shook his head and said:

"We have to go to Kedwen in a hurry. We don't have much time to stop and search here..."

"We just want to know whether this attack was an accident..."

"Of course..."

"It would be better if the cause and source could be known in a short time!"

Before the two demon hunters could reply, Dite thought about it for a few seconds and then continued:

"I know that demon hunters need to be paid for accepting commissions."

"How about one thousand Oren?"

"If we really find the cause, I can attach another two hundred Oren."

Dite paused and looked at the two demon hunters.

"Okay."

Ailin didn't hesitate much. After taking a look at Vesemir, he nodded.

None of the three mentioned the reward for saving lives.

Both demon hunters knew that this thousand Oren was actually life-saving money.

But it's just a nice way of saying it.

After all, it was just to check the fleet. Even if the Witcher Master identities of Vesemir and Ailin were added, it would not be more than twenty Oren.

"Please come with me."

Seeing that Ailin accepted the commission, Dite smiled and led the way.

Just as Ailin was about to follow, Vesemir patted his shoulder and whispered:

"Go ahead, remember what I taught you about Tracking. I'll process all the materials for Greater Griffin. I'll be back in a moment..."

Then he passed by him and walked towards Greater Griffin's headless body.

As for Mary...

After her eyes stayed on the two demon hunters for a few seconds, she finally caught up with Ailin.

Detective adventure is more interesting than dealing with material.

Follow Dite on the messy main north and south roads of the kingdom.

As far as the naked eye could see on the entire avenue, only Dite's convoy was packing luggage and bandaging the wounds of injured members.

Dite seems to be very relieved about Ailin.

Seeing Vesemir turn around and walk to Greater Griffin, he didn't say anything, but continued to tell Ailin about the scene at that time:

"Greater Griffin came so suddenly, before all of us had time to react, the two horses pulling the cart were attacked..."

"Fortunately, the beast only focused on the horse. The others only suffered minor injuries such as scratches and falls. They are not serious..."

Ailin listened carefully and looked around.

As he walked through the caravan members toward the carriage, he always felt that these people seemed familiar.

At first he thought he had met someone familiar.

Taking the opportunity to observe the environment, I glanced at a seriously bruised and bloody wounded person, and then I realized what was wrong.

Except for a fat middle-aged man who looked like a businessman.

There were no wails or screams from these injured people.

They are highly disciplined and do their own things in an orderly manner.

This is not a quality that a caravan guard can possess.

Not only that, although those who could move freely did not carry any weapons with them, most of their bodies tilted slightly to the left when moving.

This is the sequelae of wearing a long sword on the waist for a long time and causing the body's center of gravity to become unbalanced.

Or occupational disease.

Most people may not find it.

But Ailin has keen perception, and these differences from ordinary people are as obvious in his eyes as torches in the dark.

"The destination is Kedwen, and there is this familiar feeling..."

Ailin After thinking for a moment, he came up with an answer that even he himself found somewhat unbelievable.

Are these people King's Guard of Haxor?

Wrong...

Haxor are all dead...

Then they are...

"Master Ailin, where do you want to start investigating?"

Dite's voice interrupted his thinking.

Ailin didn't answer in a hurry, he closed his eyes.

Greater Griffin has an extraordinarily sensitive sense of smell and vision.

So after knowing the characteristics of this monster, if you want to find clues, you can only start from these two aspects.

Visually impossible.

There are so many people on this north-south road, and Greater Griffin is not very smart. Even if someone is controlling it, he can't distinguish the target.

Therefore, if there is an accident, it can only be caused by the sense of smell.

Recalling the skills taught by Vesemir to Kaer Morhen, the magic power in Ailin's body quickly circulated.

The "doors" Mutated Organ on both sides of the nose are opened.

In an instant,

The smell of rust, sweat, grass, and strong perfume...

Before countless scents could turn into colorful colors before his eyes, Ailin had easily found the target.

"Master Ailin, do you need me to find someone to cooperate?"

Dite stood aside and saw the witcher closing his eyes, thinking he had encountered some problem.

"No, I found it!"

The blue Cat Eyes opened its doors, and Ailin nodded slightly to Dite.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to... what... find it?"

Dite shouted in surprise, attracting the attention of the surrounding caravan members who looked like King's Guard.

How did you find it after closing your eyes?

Could he be lying to him?

Even though Dite had an excellent influence on School of the Wolf, I couldn't help but have some doubts at this time.

Even Mary, who was following Ailin like a shadow, looked at him in surprise with wide eyes.

Ailin didn't explain much. He stepped on the broken wood left by the carriage on the ground and followed the familiar smell, bypassing the carriage.

At the junction of the tawny dirt road and the grassland, a pile of beautifully decorated small wooden boxes fell to the ground.

Some small wooden boxes were smashed, and the boxes were opened to reveal crystal bottles containing light yellow liquid.

Some even had their crystal bottles broken.

These are expensive perfumes.

The fragrance Ailin smelled just now comes from here.

I don't know if the chamber of commerce where Dite is located really exists.

If this is true, then Hongshang must have suffered heavy losses on this trip.

"This smell... and this crystal bottle in the shape of a siren..."

"Are these perfumes Ms. Helena's latest model 'Siren's Kiss'?"

"Unexpectedly... so many pieces were broken..."

After getting closer, Mary, who had a low sense of presence, spoke out.

Extreme regret and distress were revealed uncontrollably from the crisp female voice.

Dite looked at Mary for a moment, before he could speak.

A fat and kind-hearted businessman who was different from the other members came out from behind the crowd and praised them.

"This lady has great taste. This is indeed Siren's Kiss..."

Mary Hearing this, he realized that everyone around him was looking at him.

He stuck out his tongue in embarrassment, said "Sorry", and then timidly retreated behind Ailin.

The fat businessman saw that Mary was a stranger and didn't speak to him. Instead, he whispered in Dite's ear:

"Sir Dite, the purchasing price of a bottle of Siren's Kiss is four hundred and fifty Oren..."

Dite's eyes widened for a moment, then he looked at the businessman with a surprised look, and then looked at Mary.

Nearly five hundred Oren is a small bottle of perfume that not everyone has seen...

The boy is the youngest Witcher Master. What is the identity of this girl?

But since neither of the two demon hunters took the initiative to introduce them.

Dite nodded to the fat businessman and did not ask for trouble by asking about the identity of the female family member.

He is just a little curious now...

Could it be that these perfumes attracted Greater Griffin?

to be honest.

If Master Ailin really said that, this reason would be a bit far-fetched.

But after all, they saved the lives of the entire "caravan" members, so even if Ailin really said that.

Dite is also ready to admit it.

Ailin gently stroked aside the boxes piled on top and picked up a box hidden inside.

"This is it!"

Ailin did not open it, but directly handed it to Dite with a puzzled face.

Dite took the beautifully decorated box and was about to open it after hesitating for a moment.

"Let me drive it, Master Dite!"

The fat businessman stretched out his hand to take away the small box.

But it was blocked by Dite.

He glanced at Ailin, took a deep breath, and opened it directly.

"Click~"

The moment the box is opened.

A strong stench came to my face, as if fresh meat had rotted in a moist and warm place for three days and three nights.

"Killer Whale!"

Mary exclaimed.

This smell is so familiar to her!

Killer Whale?

The name sounds like a highly toxic poison.

Dite was so frightened that he had no time to look at the contents of the box carefully. He immediately threw the small box on the ground and asked eagerly:

"What is Killer Whale?"
