MTL - Serious People, Who is Learning Magic at Marvel?-v3 Chapter 25 Kyle Mohan (2/5)

1234, February.

If you've traveled from Novigrad to Kermorhan during this time, or if you've been a resident of villages large and small in between, you've probably seen a man with two swords on his back. A white-haired witcher and a black-robed wizard rode by.

Don't get me wrong, they are not traveling companions. Although they are indeed traveling together, the witcher does not feel that the black-robed mage is his traveling companion.

"You are literally my boss!"

"Am I not?" The black-robed mage looked up at the witcher from the book, and he smiled and said, "Don't forget, Geralt, it's been a few months, and the monster you've killed the most is the A water ghost who can kill a child with a crossbow."

Hearing this, the witcher fell silent. Although he didn't want to admit it, the 'Water Ghost Slayer' title of the sewer guard in Novigrad was really good. He killed water recently. There were so many ghosts that he began to doubt himself.

Am I a water ghost hunter or a witcher?

Leaving these aside, the goal of their trip is Kyle Morhan. It was an ancient castle, the training base for the wolf school witchers. Geralt spent his childhood there. He was going back now to go back and see Vesemir—although he wasn't sure if the energetic old man was there, but even if he wasn't, he could clean up the castle and leave some supplies for Escal and Eskal, who might come back. Lambert has something to eat.

Moreover, the pterodactyls in the mountains next to the castle have been bothering them for a long time. The witcher intends to kill them this spring, which can be regarded as an explanation for the black-robed mage - he is about to forget them. At the beginning of the transaction, the mage just said that he wanted to see how the witcher killed those monsters, but these days he has been killing weak water ghosts, which seems to be nothing.

What's more, he actually wanted to prove himself.

I am a qualified demon hunter, not some hellish 'water ghost slayer'!

They set off from Novigrad, left this Pearl of the North where they had lived for a while, and came back to the countryside. On the way, he didn't see any commissions worth accepting, so he could only kill some evil ghosts, water ghosts, and Anderegg in exchange for commissions. The black-robed mage became fascinated with Gwent during this journey - Geralt actually suspected that he didn't like to play cards, but liked watching the people who played cards scratching their heads.

He had never seen He Shenyan lose.

They crossed Tritogle, over the mountains, and returned to Kaldwin, the bitter cold. Then came another arduous climb, hard enough for witchers at least.

In March of the same year, they finally came to Kyle Morhan.

The castle is built on a mountain, and the mountains behind are covered with snow that never melts all year round. Surrounded by green trees, the scenery is pleasant. But the castle is not so beautiful. She has long been in ruins, with broken eaves and walls, and the walls are full of ivy.

They crossed another gully and embarked on a section of the road around the mountain. From there, Kermorhan could be seen in the distance, huddled between a pile of stone walls - the collapsed defensive wall with only the tripod, the only remaining towers and gates, and the heavy and thick cylindrical main tower, Geralt brought He passed through the gate, which was very narrow compared to the castle itself, and entered the overgrown courtyard. There are several wooden dummies and training swords scattered in one corner of the courtyard. Those swords are dull.

Noticing the mage's gaze, Geralt explained to him, "We used to recruit apprentices, but now, no one has done this for many years."

He Shenyan nodded lightly. He read this history from the book, it was very heavy and sad.

They **** the horses and brought them fresh hay. Afterwards, Geralt entered the castle, leaving the mage alone between the courtyards to observe the castle with a long history. He strolled past the heavy stone bricks, stepped on the moss, and even picked off a few ivy pieces and put them in his magic backpack.

He could see the intention of the castle, which was designed to withstand a long siege. While its fortifications failed to prevent the slaughter of witchers a hundred years ago, in its glory days it could repel attacks by large armies.

The multiple levels of the building allow it to house troops, while the central courtyard is relatively small, making it easier to defend on the outer walls. The defenders of the castle can be protected by thick walls, moats and drawbridges, and narrow gates, which provide additional protection. The garrison could draw water from a well in the courtyard.

So Kelmorhan stood quietly above the wild mountains, in the wild forest, clinging to the peaks of the Blue Mountains, towering high in the clouds. Below is a misty valley, and several small streams converge in the River of White Rock. Standing on the city wall, there is no one in sight, only birds flying in the forest and grizzly bears and wolves wandering in the mountains can be seen.

Kermorhan means: Fortress of the Ancient Sea.

He Shenyan was already standing on the city wall. He overlooked the scenery of this place, thinking about the history of the witchers he had read in the book.

Because of their unusual, unusual abilities and magical skills, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Demon hunters are treated like exiles, sometimes even causing resentment. Years ago, someone used leaflets full of lies, and portraits like "Monster-like Witcher's Narrative" and "Monster, Witcher's Story. volume One. ”, which incited peasants to become thugs, and fanatics launched persecution against the collective of witchers.

And a traitor of the Cat Witcher revealed Kyle Morhan's location to the thugs, so the thugs surrounded Kyle Morhan.

There were 23 witchers and 40 witcher apprentices living in Kelmorhan at the time, but it was a little too small for the attackers. The mob, aided by an unknown sorceress, captured Kermorhan and slaughtered all the witchers who were in the castle at the time. Vesemir, Geralt's mentor, survived under the corpse, and the few other witchers who went out to work escaped the carnage.

To this day, only the bones left under the castle moat and under the bridge, as well as the scattered leaflets, can still make people remember the massacre.

Sad and heavy, as they are much stronger than humans, not only did they not benefit from this ability, on the contrary, they were persecuted. Most witchers spend their lives destitute at the end of their lives, and it is common for them to be wounded to death. If they are given a choice, many people may choose to give up this power and become ordinary people, but unfortunately they can't do it anymore.

Everything has disappeared with the wind.

He heard footsteps and turned his head. Geralt had taken off his soft armor and was working in a coat. The witcher with a mop in his hand looked a little ridiculous. Noticing his gaze, the witcher rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't want to help, then..."

He didn't finish his words, because He Shenyan snapped his fingers gently.
