"Mary!"

When he looked up and saw the person coming, Ailin was stunned, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He suddenly remembered what Mary had asked him to plead for mercy in front of Vesemir yesterday.

Looking at the girl rushing towards me with great momentum, Ailin felt bad:

"I'm afraid you were punished by Vesemir yesterday and now you're here to trouble me, right?"

Damn it!

You shouldn't stay here.

As soon as a person becomes negative, all kinds of troubles will surely come to his door.

But after all, he failed to do what he promised, so Ailin thought about it and was about to apologize first:

"Mary, yesterday..."

Mary, who rushed over with great momentum, braked in front of Ailin, then excitedly held his hands with both hands and said:

"Ailin, you are amazing!"

Huh?

marvelous?

Ailin was startled, and saw that the joy on Mary's face did not seem to be a strange thing. If he had some enlightenment, he tried to say:

"What's wrong?"

"Hey hey hey~" Mary giggled happily, looking at each other with two big flashing eyes full of joy, "Lady Vesemir didn't punish me. Why did you lose your temper so quickly after talking to her yesterday?"

"The apprentices at the fortress gate shouted..."

Mary paused, carefully walked to the middle of the stairway, took a look, and then continued in a low voice:

"... Uh... when she said the 'evil old witch', Lady Vesemir's face turned so dark that I almost thought she was going to use Leech Transfiguration Spell on me and those apprentices..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ailin shook his head, "How could Lady Vesemir do this?"

Mary leaned back after hearing this, with a look like "You are still too young and have never seen the world."

But I don't know if I am worried about the orange portal suddenly appearing around me.

His big bright eyes glanced around and upstairs and downstairs with a sly look. Even if he didn't find anyone else there, he didn't dare to talk about it.

Instead, he shook Ailin's hand and asked softly:

"Speak quickly, Blue Death, Drowner Killer, noble Knight Ailin..."

"How did you plead with Lady Vesemir on my behalf yesterday?"

Listening to the kitten-like coquettish tone, smelling the faint orange fragrance lingering around, and feeling the soft and boneless touch on the back of his hand, Ailin shuddered and subconsciously took two steps back.

It's terrible!

Mary What's going on today?

He looked at the girl in confusion, Ailin wanted to ask why he was talking like this today.

But looking at the reflection in Mary's eyes, the image of May Festival's hazy and intoxicated parade suddenly appeared in his mind, and his mouth suddenly became dry.

After thinking about it, it seemed that I couldn't ask anything...

You can't ask for the exit either...

He took a deep breath, discarded the distracting thoughts in his mind and recalled yesterday carefully, but he didn't feel that he played a big role in it, so he asked one more question:

"What did Lady Vesemir say after you went back yesterday?"

Mary saw Ailin's retreating movement, and his body froze. He seemed to feel a little embarrassed. After taking his hand back, he pulled the hair in front of his forehead:

"Uh... I didn't say anything. Vesemir has been staying in her room since I went back last night."

"I was so scared that I didn't sleep well all night, and then this morning Lady Vesemir acted as if nothing happened, and arranged for me to teach Yennefer, and then left Alchemy Room early."

"Where are you going?" Ailin asked curiously.

"How do I know..." Mary suddenly shook his head angrily, but still explained, "She left through the portal, but judging from the strength of the portal, it should be a short-distance portal in Ancient Sea Fortress..."

"You asked so many questions, but you still haven't said how to plead for mercy?"

Ailin Hearing this, he looked at the big sparkling eyes in front of him and froze.

He originally wanted to tell the plan of persuasion yesterday, claim the credit, and then ask Mary to help teach the apprentice potions and skills.

But now.

Looking at Mary's big eyes, Ailin remained silent for a while before saying, "This probably has nothing to do with me."

Then he slowly spoke out yesterday's conversation with Lady Vesemir about "aging", "death", and "separation"... no... it should be Vesemir's unilateral confession.

Then he looked at Mary who was fuming. After his emotions slowly calmed down, he suddenly stared at him complicatedly for a few seconds for some reason and sighed.

"... So Lady Vesemir's change should not have much to do with me..." Ailin paused and sincerely requested, "She may not be in a good mood recently. Can you find a way to comfort her?"

Mary lowered his head and pondered for a long time after hearing this, then raised his head and looked at Ailin.

"I will find a way." She said seriously, her tone sounding a little disappointed, "But maybe you are the best person to comfort you."

Ailin did not deny what Mary said. He thought for a few seconds and said:

"I will be very busy next time, but I will also find a way to come and see her often."

Just say it.

An inexplicable silence suddenly fell between the two.

for a long time.

The sky was gloomy and it was almost completely dark inside the tower.

"Wow~"

Ailin seemed to wake up suddenly, and a Igni Sign lit up the candle beside him.

Looking at the two distant shadows at his feet, Mary suddenly asked:

"Is there anything I can do?"

Ailin After being stunned for a few seconds, he was not polite and said:

"Continue to help me teach my apprentice bombs, Sword Oil, potions and spells."

Mary nodded slightly.

There was another moment of silence.

"Then I... leave?" Ailin said.

"Yeah." Mary nodded again, "I'm going to the castle hall too. Yennefer wants to drink stew."

After hearing this, Ailin hesitated for a moment, then walked to the top floor without asking any more questions.

But before he could reach a few steps, he suddenly heard a long sigh coming from behind him.

The witcher, who was carrying his shoulders, trembled.

But it was just a tremor.

Then, as if he hadn't heard anything, he disappeared alone into the candlelight, walking towards the deepest darkness.

"Pa~"

The wooden door is closed.

Mary just lifted the small stool against the door.

Then he saw a small figure walking out of the inner room.

That's Yennefer.

But I don't know why.

Even in Alchemy Room, she was still wearing the black cloth that covered her face.

"Sister Mary, where did you go just now? I seemed to hear Ailin's voice." Yennefer asked.

"We didn't go anywhere, we just happened to bump into each other," Mary shook his head and unnaturally changed the subject, "Ye Ni, are you ready for today's etching painting? What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Not even close." Yennefer glanced at the tightly closed wooden door, shook his head with some disappointment, and took off the black cloth. "I can eat anything."

Mary nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

After giving Yennefer a few perfunctory words and asking her to go back to her room to continue studying, Mary then placed the small stool in front of an alchemy table again.

then.

Mary was not in a hurry to prepare dinner for the two of them.

She slowly sat down, supporting the alchemy table with her right arm, and supporting her chin with her white right hand.

A beautifully decorated book is open, next to the right elbow that is slightly red from flexion and stretching.

On the valuable Chiffon Paper, the layout is clear and the format is elegant.

There were also many small words written in ink in the blank space, like notes taken during careful study.

Such as "coquettishness", "tone of voice", "angle of elevation"...

Looking carefully, he looked as if he was taking notes on professional books such as "Alchemy", "Monster Economics", and "Ritual".

"Pa~"

The books were closed with force.

Under the swaying candlelight, the closed book reveals the golden title outlined in Aretuza witch squiggle - "How Magical Ladies Can Skillfully "Attract" Handsome Men"

"It's no use at all!"

Mary cursed softly, pushed the book away, held his chin and looked out the window.

There was not a single star outside the window. Above the dark peaks, there was only a lonely full moon hanging in the distant horizon.

Looking at this scene, the more the girl looked at her slender willow eyebrows, the more she frowned. She didn't know who she was thinking of or who she was angry with.

"It's really... useless at all." The girl murmured.

"Bang~"

After closing the door gently, Ailin was not in a hurry to light the lights in the room.

The patio door was closed.

The huge room was silently enveloped in thick darkness, which made Ailin feel somewhat at ease.

Leaning against the wooden door without any thought, he raised his head and let himself go.

After a while, Ailin finally let out a breath of turbid breath, turned on Witcher's Handbook with his mind, and started the process that he had planned for tonight.

[Name: Violent]

[Type: Beast Roar]

[Learning requirements: Path of the Beast Roar entry]

[Passive effect: Maintain the power operation method of "Beast Roar: Fury" on a daily basis, you can

1. Slowly increase strength, agility and physical attributes.

2. Increase the casting speed of "Beast Roar: Fury" by 50%.

3. Increase the roar intensity and range of "Beast Roar: Fury" by 20%.]

Although it has only been two days, Ailin already has some understanding of this unique skill tree.

It is different from Special Skill, different from ordinary skills, not only in that it cannot be upgraded.

Generally speaking.

No matter which skill is obtained or upgraded, it is basically "omniscient", such as School of the Cat Two-Handed Sword.

As soon as he acquired this skill, even though Ailin had never done any relevant training before, he naturally knew all the skills included in School of the Cat Two-Handed Sword LV1.

The physical quality will also be transformed accordingly at the moment of acquisition or upgrade, allowing the power of School of the Cat Two-Handed Sword to be fully unleashed.

Therefore, the moment you acquire and upgrade skills, Ailin can be used directly on the spot, and there is basically no unfamiliarity with sudden improvement.

It seemed that in that short moment, he had been practicing hard for countless hours.

But Path of the Beast Roar is not like this.

Whether it is [Beast Roar: Fury] or [Beast Roar: Word of Nature], when he first acquired these two skills, all Ailin knew was how power works, that is...

How to unleash the rage and the language of nature?

How to maintain the passive operation state of both?

Nothing is known about the rest, not even as much as what is shown on the panel that comes with the skill itself.

It's like taking a math class, but only teaches theorems and formulas, doesn't solve a few examples, teaches you some skills, and then lets you do the after-school questions.

When you encounter a problem, it's not that you can't solve it.

But how to better use the "theorem" and "formula" skills requires you to think and accumulate by yourself during the experiment.

Until now.

[Beast Roar: Fury] How to control time, expand the scope of influence, and distinguish between friend and foe...

Ailin is all very vague.

Therefore, although Path of the Beast Roar's skills are very powerful, in practical applications, they are not as convenient as the "upgraded" skills that Ailin obtained in the past.

But let's think about it another way...

"Even Witcher's Handbook cannot be upgraded to improve proficiency. The essence of Path of the Beast Roar may not be at the same level as other skills."

"Therefore, its upper limit should be much higher than ordinary skills."

"I just don't know how high it is, and how it will fare against Wild Hunt..."

Ailin speculated in his mind for a while, and then started "cultivation" according to the power operation method of [Beast Roar: Fury].

"Plop~"

"Plop~"

The heart beats rapidly with a unique rhythm.

Like the pattern on the Path of the Beast Roar skill tree, the origin of all beast roar power is in the heart.

In an instant.

A little golden light emerged from the blood, as if gold powder was mixed in the blood.

And when these "gold powder" appeared, the blood rushing like a river suddenly became "heavy", as if it suddenly turned into mercury.

Immediately afterwards.

The witcher's unique Mutated Organ next to the heart was also affected and started to tremble.

The four kinds of magic power, blue, red, brown, and green, were mixed together. The moment it merged into the blood, the "gold powder" surged up rapidly, mixed with magic power, and rushed to the demon hunter's mouthpiece along some unknown veins in the body.

The huge energy rushed to the base of the tongue almost instantly, somewhere similar to Magic Node.

Now.

The demon hunter only needs to pronounce a unique syllable "Yir" to instantly detonate a huge amount of energy and bounce everything around him away.

Followed by "ulr".

The almost god-like power will increase his own strength by four times in an instant.

If you follow the last syllable.

The energy hidden under the base of the tongue will quickly spread outward with the beast roarer as the core.

These three syllables are called "animal language" by the One-Eyed Serpent Giant family. They are similar to Elder Speech and are inherently powerful languages.

certainly.

There are also One-Eyed Serpent Giant who call it "divine language", which is a gift from Shagdarzhab, the god of roar, hunting and domestication.

But Ailin doubts this.

Because obviously there is no god named Shagdarzhab in the world of witcher.

And there are limits to the power of gods.

Meritellie Due to the erosion of White Frost, even the sound cannot be transmitted to his priest.

And even at its peak, His power can only be exerted on the territory occupied by humans, and it must be humans who believe in Him.

Ailin doesn't think that a god who knows where in the corner can deliver Divine Power to the world of witchers.

What's more.

Based on the memory of that One-Eyed Serpent Giant, whether Shagdarzhab exists now is still a question...

Therefore, the witcher felt that the syllables called "bestiality" should have some origin.

It's a pity that in Path of the Beast Roar, it is only used as a tool. If you want to study it, you may have to fire ten or twenty beast roars.

certainly.

The most important thing about Ailin now is not the origin of these ancient wild syllables.

He must suppress his urge to roar and control this huge energy to form a cycle in his body.

"Hmph~"

The blazing heat seemed to hold a mouthful of magma, and the witcher closed his lips tightly and groaned.

for a long time.

Only then did he sweat profusely and move the ball of energy downwards an inch.

But it only moved down this inch.

All of a sudden.

Huge heat spreads from the base of the tongue and spreads throughout the limbs and bones.

Like the rising tide of the bright moon, life is endless.

Just when the witcher wants to continue his efforts and take a step further...

"Buzz~"

Wolf Emblem buzzed in the chest.
