"A generous reward?"
Upon hearing this, Su Ziyu raised an eyebrow and said, "Compared to money, I’m a bit more interested in those who can travel through ti and space."
"If you could talk about your experiences during this ti."
"Perhaps I can consider whether or not to accept this task commission."
You also say you’re not from the Cat School.
Only those from the Cat School would have such an intense curiosity!
Normal Demon Hunters wouldn’t be overly curious about things beyond their ability, but the Cat School demon hunters alone love to court death, always trying out dangerous things far beyond their ability.
Lady Inid fell into deep thought upon hearing the words.
A mont later, she raised her head to look at Su Ziyu in front of her and said, "Alright."
She seed to care a lot about Su Ziyu.
It seed that the situation with the Female Sorcerer Mutual Aid Association was even more difficult than Su Ziyu had imagined. Among the people who ca to attend the banquet today, the only one who made Su Ziyu feel a bit dangerous was Lady Inid in front of him.
The others, including Alice, were not very powerful.
"We discovered through so divination thods that the source of the plague cos from a group of people said to be able to travel through ti and space. They sotis appear in physical form, sotis as ghost hunters running through the night."
"We tried to find them to clear the most severe accusation by secular powers and the Church against us."
"But this plan failed."
"They co and go without a trace and are hard to find, and we discovered that even if we find them, those secular and Church forces will not heed our explanation."
"They just want to strike at the power of magic."
"They fear and hate everything about us!"
Lady Inid’s expression was a bit bleak, with the enemy-controlled public opinion turning the witches into public enemies. Although they possessed powerful magic, they had been at a considerable disadvantage for a long ti due to the existence of anti-magic tal. This is why the Female Sorcerer Mutual Aid Association mbers wanted to flee and cross the sea to the City of Freedom in the north.
Su Ziyu listened silently all along and suddenly asked, "What have you discovered during this ti? About those ghost hunters?"
"Them?" Lady Inid thought for a mont and said, "They seem to be tracking sothing. It might be a person? Or perhaps so magical creature?"
"While tracking their traces, I discovered the tracks of a unicorn."
"But I couldn’t find it."
Unicorn?
Su Ziyu frowned slightly and said, "Do you know where they co from?"
"I don’t know," Lady Inid shook her head and said, "You should have heard of the ’Celestial Convergence’ right?"
"I’ve heard of it, but I’m not very clear on it," Su Ziyu nodded.
"Hmm," Lady Inid said softly, "Demon Hunters aren’t very knowledgeable about this aspect."
"Celestial Convergence is a peculiar supernatural phenonon."
"In this universe we reside in, there are thousands of different worlds. But for so unknown reason, all these worlds produce so form of space connection when the Celestial Convergence phenonon occurs."
"This world once ford a space connection with thousands of worlds."
"That’s how you humans appeared."
"In addition, many creatures ca here because of it. Initially, this world was inhabited only by elves, but later on, humans, dwarves, halflings, vampires, werewolves, ghouls, trolls, and other creatures appeared."
Is this the intersection of ti and space?
Su Ziyu felt this task might be more troubleso than imagined.
"Those ghost hunters might also co from one of those worlds," Lady Inid stood up and said softly, "It’s just that they seem to have mastered the ability to voluntarily cross ti and space."
"If you encounter them, it’s best to be careful, they’re very difficult to deal with!"
Not only do creatures from other worlds co here, but creatures from here also enter other worlds.
So people disappear just like that.
Hearing this made Su Ziyu plunge into deep thought, and after a while, he looked up and said, "Thank you for telling all this. If there’s any more information about those ghost hunters, please notify as soon as possible."
Sure enough, those who live longer know more, Lady Inid’s knowledge was far richer than that of other female warlocks.
He continued, "I accept this commission."
"I will escort you to the City of Freedom."
Since his current identity was a Demon Hunter, Su Ziyu decided to play the role well.
"What kind of reward do you want?" Lady Inid seed quite happy because Su Ziyu agreed so readily, a touch of joy appearing on her delicate face, the corners of her mouth slightly raised as she said, "Money? Magic potion? Equipnt? Or a lover?"
It seed so things had already been revealed to her, whether by Van Helsing’s words or because lissa’s mouth was less than tight.
Su Ziyu looked a bit surprised at first, then smiled and shook his head, saying, "Didn’t you just pay the reward?"
"Of course."
"If we encounter so troubleso issues on the way."
"You’ll have to pay more!"
Su Ziyu’s slightly playful tone made Lady Inid cover her mouth and chuckle softly, smiling, "Sir Su is quite interesting, far more charming than other Demon Hunters."
"Such a powerful and charming Demon Hunter is very popular among the sisters. Moreover, you are so young, with limitless potential."
"Even I."
"Can’t help but wonder if I should find such a lover."
Lady Inid’s words ended there, without ntioning the topic of reward any further, and instead, she turned to take out a peculiar clover talisman, extending it to Su Ziyu and saying, "This is a Lucky Grass Talisman, said to have once been blessed by a Fairy in the lake."
"It can sense erging evil nearby, and I hope Lord Su can accept it."
This is a woman who makes one feel as if spring is arriving, and Su Ziyu had to admit she had quite a leadership charm.
Su Ziyu did not refuse, reaching out to accept the Lucky Grass Talisman.
However, he did not pursue the topic of lovers further because he knew the female sorcerer in front of him simply wanted to recruit a powerful ally. Whether demon hunters or female warlocks, neither could have offspring, they rarely entered into marriage, and their relationships were complex and tangled, with no one quite sure if it was more about love or interest between lovers at the end.
Nobody knows.
They are anomalies in the eyes of ordinary people, perhaps combined out of mutual interest, or perhaps as emotional solace for loneliness.
The fate of both has been intertwined for many years like this.
Van Helsing had a female warlock lover back in Dongluo, but he rarely spoke of his past, only that since then, he preferred to indulge himself in brothels rather than seek another female warlock lover. Demon Hunters and female warlocks both have long lifespans, and Van Helsing should be over eighty this year already.
