Geralt and Visenna

Did it sink into the Source Lake?

Ezekiel his head and looked at Edus inquiringly, only to find that Edus also looked bewildered.

The banyan tree was already too far away for them, let alone the secrecy of the Source Lake.

They knew nothing about it.

However, Isaac McKinney in his brown bear form and Zebi Ortega in his raven form, along with several other Great Druid of the Druid Circle of Myna, were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but their expressions changed drastically.

"Mentor, why didn't you stop it?!" Zebi Ort exclaimed.

The Grand Master was silent for a few seconds, then shook his head. "I cannot stop it. It is the demand of the origin. Mother Nature commands me to make way."

"But... but..."

"Since it is Mother Nature's demand, we should follow it," Isaac McKinney interrupted Zebi Ort, patting her on the shoulder. "It must be the best choice for the origin, for nature, and for the world."

Zebi Ort remained silent.

Isaac McKinney looked at the Grand Master: "Master, since he has fallen into the Source Lake, he truly cannot return, nor should we allow him to return."

He glanced back at the throng of Druid and continued:

What are your plans?

"Should we send someone to find him?"

"No need," the Grand Master gently shook his head. "The Northern Continent is too large, and there are too few people in the Druid Circle of Myna. Although Kano is from another world, he is close to nature and it is instinctive for him to hide in the woodlands and wilderness."

"Moreover, he is a true master in the natural way. As long as he doesn't want to be found, no one can find him."

"Sending people to search is like looking for fleas in a haystack; it will not only be of no use, but will also delay the children's spiritual practice."

The Grand Master paused, then sincerely remarked:

"I wonder what kind of person Master Kano was in this other world."

"If I were to be stranded in another world due to the Conjunction of the Spheres, I would never be able to be so readily accepted by the new origin."

Listening to the Grand Master's reflections, everyone also developed a genuine curiosity about that person from another world.

A figure admired even by Grand Master can only be found in myths and epics.

In fact, this is because most of the visitors are Druid who admire nature, which gives them the leisure to sit here and reflect.

However, for any other profession, such as warlocks, whose stance is ambiguous and difficult to determine, no matter how hard they are to find, the entire Circle of Druids of the Northern Continent will come out in droves.

"Mentor, since Master Kano doesn't need us to search for him, why did you summon us here?" Isaac McKinney asked, puzzled.

The Druid around them shared the same question.

Apart from the Druid who were traveling abroad, the Druid Circle of Myna came out in full force for this summons.

What happened in the Sacred Forest is certainly important, but it doesn't seem to warrant such a grand spectacle, and it has nothing to do with some young Druid who haven't yet left their mark on the Sacred Forest.

The notification can be sent entirely to the Druid and apprentices in charge of external Druid Circle of Myna.

The Grand Master raised his head, squinting as he watched the sunlight stream through the dense canopy, casting a clear path of light.

"Master Kano has left his mark on the origin, and Mother Nature has revealed that new life will be born into this world."

"It is a brand new life, and also a remnant of another world. It is the key to enlightenment in a new era, a rope, the future, and hope..."

The Druid looked at each other in bewilderment.

A brand new life... The Promise of Enlightenment... The Future... Hope...

Is this... a prophecy from the Grand Master?

What kind of life could possibly influence the future?

"I don't..."

He shook his head, lowered his head, and solemnly looked down at the Druid of the Druid Circle of Myna:

"Mother Nature needs you to find them, protect them, and help them integrate into the natural cycle."

Isaac McKinney stepped forward and asked, "Is it that golden behemoth?"

"At least it is closely related to it and has a similar form." The Grand Master nodded. "The seed has already sprouted, but it may be difficult to adapt to the mutated environment. This is precisely the time when we farmers are needed."

"Where should we look?" Zebi Ort asked.

"In the frigid mountains of the north, I saw deciduous maples, spruces, weeping birches, rock orchids, and fairy trees..."

The Druid solemnly noted down these characteristics one by one.

Then, under the arrangement of several Great Druid in charge of foreign affairs in the Druid Circle of Myna, they received their respective tasks one by one, bowed to the Grand Master, and then headed directly out of the Myna Forest.

Edus, Erwin, Ezekiel were among them.

Ciri remain here for the time being as his patrol mission in the woods is not yet over, but he will set off for the Dragon Mountains in a week.

No one made excuses to refuse, because maintaining the sacred cycle of nature is the mission given to every Druid by "Mother". In the end, the profession of Druid is itself a guardian chosen by nature.

Moreover, a new Spirit of Nature means a new shortcut.

When one enters the Sacred Forest in holy form, Mother Nature will always show some tolerance and favor to her youngest child.

soon.

Before the Sacred Myna, only the Grand Master and a handful of Great Druid remained.

"Mentor, is it really okay to leave Master Kano alone?" Zebi Ort asked. "Since the mark comes from him, he must know best the new life's true name, characteristics, habits, how to come into contact with it, how to imitate it and transform into a holy form..."

The Grand Master pondered for a few seconds and said, "Notify the Conclave of Sorcerers, as well as the kings and nobles of the Northern Continent, and tell them to be careful not to harm him."

"That's it?" Zebi Ort asked, puzzled.

"That's settled." The Grand Master nodded slightly. "Whether we can find him or not is not important. We can find a way to invite him to come on his own."

"What do you mean?" a Great Druid asked, puzzled. "We can't even find them, how can we ask for help?"

Zebi Ort suddenly realized:

"No matter how vigilant we are, Master Kano will always meditate and will always reappear in the Sacred Forest. At that time, we can invite him."

Just as they wouldn't be too wary of a fellow traveler who adheres to the way of nature.

The otherworldly Druid named Kano would probably trust them more.

Moreover, even if the Grand Master made way because of Mother Nature's request, it still showed the goodwill of the Circle of Elements of Maina.

If Kano is a grateful person, this would be a great favor, and he would most likely be able to invite him in before the other Circle of Druids.

Yes.

The Sacred Forest contains more than just the Druid Circle of Myna.

With the Mahakam and Kaer Trolde Mountains as the boundary, most of the areas west of this boundary, including Temeria and Riedania, as well as some smaller countries like Hidaris, are within the sphere of influence of the Sacred Forest.

Other regions, such as Kedwen and Skellige, each have their own sanctuaries of the Way of Nature.

Some are forests similar to the Sacred Forest, while others are towering mountains, vast seas, and murky swamps...

In each sanctuary, the same source is revealed within, only the outward appearance differs, just as a lush, verdant forest is nature, a surging ocean is nature, and a violently erupting volcano is also nature.

The fundamental origins are all the same.

However, due to differences in outward manifestations, the speed at which Druid comprehends the teachings will vary depending on the sanctuary.

Some Druid find their inspiration in the woodlands, some at sea, some in the swamps...

This is why Druid, after achieving mastery as apprentices, often travel across the continent, moving between different Circle of Druids.

Only after achieving the status of Great Druid will one choose a Circle of Druids to settle in, meditating continuously for long periods in order to delve deeper into the source.

certainly.

Among the various Circle of Druids of the Northern Continent, there are no strong conflicts of interest like those among secular merchant guilds, nobles, or trade organizations; their relationships with each other are generally quite good.

However, as the Great Druid of the Druid Circle of Myna, he naturally hoped that the Druid Circle of Myna could absorb Kano, a master who touched the source and even went deep into the Source Lake.

This would not only increase the offerings from secular nobles, but also make it easier to exchange ideas about the Way of Nature.

Moreover.

Not only ordinary Druid were curious about the golden behemoth, but these Great Druid were also interested in the Spirit of Nature chosen by Mother Nature.

Perhaps they can glean more profound truths from the new Spirit of Nature.

The ultimate truth of nature is more easily comprehended when it is condensed into a sacred form.

Therefore, none of the Druid present wanted to give up the title of Master named Kano to their other brothers and sisters in the Circle of Druids.

Even Druid who revere nature have their own selfish desires.

"That's right." The Grand Master nodded with satisfaction. "Druid' perception of nature is instinctive. As long as Kano doesn't leave the area covered by the Sacred Forest, there will definitely be another chance to meet him."

"Pay close attention when you meditate these next few days."

"Yes, Grand Master," the Great Druid nodded in agreement.

The Grand Master smiled kindly and stroked his beard.

The Great Druid rarely awoke from their long meditations, and now that the matter was settled, they didn't think of leaving immediately, but instead exchanged their accumulated insights on spiritual practice.

Of course, this exchange is very brief, because the ultimate truths of nature are actually all within the Sacred Forest, requiring no further communication.

After a brief exchange, the main conversation revolved around reminiscing about the past, complaining about the difficulties ahead, and speculating about the Druid of that otherworldly realm called Kano.

As the master of the Druid Circle of Myna, the Grand Master would occasionally reply with a word or two, and also join in with a few cheerful complaints.

From a distance, apart from the walking sticks filled with various animal skulls, they look no different from ordinary elderly people chatting together in a village.

After a while, the Grand Master glanced at the several Great Druid before him and suddenly asked:

Where is Visenna?

Why haven't I seen her here?

——

Temple of Melitele.

Just as the Druid of the Druid Circle of Myna was thinking about his "chance encounter" with Kano in the Sacred Forest, Kano, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, helplessly opened his eyes and sighed.

"No..." He shook his head helplessly. "Druid meditation seems to be completely different from witcher meditation."

Ailin had certainly heard of Druid, although they didn't have much screen time in the original stories and games, far less than warlocks.

But after he transmigrated, while still in Kaer Morhen and before he had completed the Trial of the Mountains, he learned about this profession from the books in the library.

After mastering the "Beast Roar: Primal Tongue," he specifically consulted documents and materials at the Temple of Melitele and Kaer Morhen.

While I may not have a deep understanding of Druid, I do have some basic knowledge of concepts such as meditation and the practice of communicating with the sanctuary of nature.

He guessed.

The forest you enter using the @#￥%&'s Element the Leshen is most likely a natural sanctuary.

However, he had just tried various methods, from meditation and the Primal Tongue to a combination of the Primal Tongue and meditation, and Mother Nature did respond to him at the temple in Meritellie, but he could not enter that woodland again.

It is estimated that Druid have their own unique methods of meditation.

"Let's put it aside for now," Ailin shook his head. "When we meet Druid, we can see if we can ask them for advice."

Fortunately, unlike Druid, druids, Druid wish to convert every human into a guardian of the environment, are unlikely to be as wary of meditation methods that connect with the sanctuary of nature as warlocks are of Divine Power meditation techniques.

otherwise.

I don't know when I'll be able to enter that forest again.

After offending so many powerful forces, he really couldn't afford to offend the Druid again by stealing cultivation methods.

The School of the Wolf hasn't matured yet; it really can't hold on.

But then again...

"The Circle of Druids corresponding to that sanctuary should be located around Temeria, right?"

Ailin stroked his chin thoughtfully:

"Temeria... Temeria..."

"Geralt the White Wolf Geralt's mother was Druid from Temeria, and that Circle of Druids seemed to be called the Druid Circle of Myna..."

"Maina," he recalled, "Should be a fortress near Maribor, on the southern border of Temeria ..."

"Could those animals in the Sacred Forest, and that 'demigod' Reindeer, be the Druid of the Druid Circle of Myna?"

The idea had barely crossed his mind when Ailin dismissed it.

Because he remembered that Geralt's mother was the owner of the Druid Circle of Myna, and that the Reindeer had large antlers and a strong physique, clearly a male stag.

But if you think about it...

"Geralt must have been born sometime in recent years, right?" Ailin thought to himself.

Before he traveled through time, Geralt's birth date was not actually explained in detail, and the calculations in the original books, games, and TV series differ greatly.

The American TV series even estimates the year to be 1160, which is of course impossible, since Ailin has never seen a white-haired witcher around twenty years old in Kaer Morhen.

The original story seems to be set in the 1210s, but according to the plot, Geralt was adopted by Vesemir before the School of the Wolf declined, so this year doesn't quite fit.

After all, without him, the School of the Wolf would have been overrun by mobs either this year or next.

therefore.

According to the plot, it seems that Geralt's mother will send him to Kaer Morhen within the next two years.

To be honest, he was quite looking forward to meeting the protagonist from the original work.

Not only because of those epic legends, but also because Geralt is said to possess the talent of magical energy.

Of course, there is a lot of debate on this point, but Geralt's exceptional talent as a Witcher is undeniable.

in addition.

After the School of the Wolf takes Geralt in, they will also be able to connect with the Circle of Druids.

"I wonder if my appearance as a butterfly will cause the original protagonist to disappear..." Ailin sighed, and was about to get up.

Just then.

"Knock knock knock~"

There was a knock on the door to Ailin's room.
