Aurelion's eyes lit up slightly when she heard the last name.
He couldn't help but feel a slight fondness for Claudia in front of him.
"Did the teacher send you to see me?"
Aurelion spoke, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Because she had just received news that Victor would be returning to Braxton for a while, her classes were temporarily suspended.
So she still thought Claudia had been summoned by Victor to see her.
Claudia didn't answer, but just kept smiling, her eyes filled with a hint of doting affection.
Then, she reached behind her neck and removed the pendant from her neck.
He bent down slightly, reached out his hands, and placed the pendant around Aurelion's neck.
After Claudia stood up, Aurelion lowered her head and looked at the black crystal pendant hanging on her chest.
Following the sunlight, I examined the pendant's unusual shape closely.
Although the pendant was very beautiful, Aurelion had no idea what it was.
Claudia spoke very solemnly to Aurelian:
"This is a talisman, a gift from me to you."
She placed a hand on Aurelion's shoulder, squinted, smiled slightly, and said:
"I love your innocence and kindness. Keep that mindset and become stronger."
Aurelion blinked and looked at Claudia after hearing this.
"Are you... very strong?"
"certainly."
As soon as Claudia finished speaking confidently, several lines appeared on one side of her face.
A powerful aura suddenly erupted, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze, transforming into countless spatial blades.
In just a short moment, Aurelione had already felt her power.
While she was still in a daze, Claudia had already withdrawn her imposing aura, and the lines on her face gradually faded until they disappeared.
Aurelion stared blankly at Claudia, muttering to herself:
"That's amazing."
Claudia stood up and gently continued to encourage Aurelian:
"You are still young, and your talent surpasses that of anyone else."
"Let me look forward to the day when you become strong enough to defeat even me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Claudia turned around.
He slowly left under Aurelion's watchful gaze.
Aurelion was left standing alone in the garden, clutching the black crystal pendant tightly in her hand, raising it up to examine it again.
Sunlight streamed through the pendant, casting iridescent rays that reflected in Aurelion's eyes.
The small blade is decorated with bat-like wings on both sides, which appear somewhat sacred when the sunlight shines through it.
...
As Claudia walked down the street, she could feel a gaze fixed upon her, constantly watching her.
She stood there and chuckled softly.
“You don’t need to keep staring at me, Aubrey.”
"I know you don't like me, so I won't make things difficult for you."
"But the child is innocent."
A phantom red lion leaped down from the sky and landed steadily in front of her.
The lion exudes unparalleled majesty, its eyes cold and ruthless, as if it were looking at a threatening beast.
The powerful aura made Claudia feel a terrifying sense of oppression.
"Remember what you told me."
"Keep your promise."
The majestic lion left behind a single sentence and then turned and left.
His body gradually turned into powder and disappeared.
Only after sensing its aura gradually disappearing did Claudia place a hand over her left eye.
The eyeball turned a deeper crimson.
It was beating like a heart.
It's like entering the battle mode of a Witcher.
She slowly raised her head and looked up at the sky.
In his crimson eyes, he recalled the scene of fighting that demon:
She lost; her clothes were completely torn, she could no longer lift the blade in her hand, and even her mask was shattered.
But those scarlet eyes, pounding like a heart, remained fixed on the red demon in the sky.
Claudia could clearly sense the fifth rank.
It is excessively powerful.
Claudia couldn't understand how a demon could be so powerful.
But then, the crow flapped its wings and slowly landed in front of him.
“You are indeed more powerful than other witchers, but…”
"You failed."
Losers must be willing to accept punishment.
"I will ensure you remain rational at all times and are free to adjust your power."
The red demon gradually disappeared into the boundless darkness.
Only patches of darkness remained in the sky, as if to completely engulf Claudia.
The crow's single eye gleamed with a cunning light, making it appear incredibly mysterious.
"And I want you to return to the palace."
"This is something I promised Viktor."
...
Claudia looked at the bright sky and paused for a moment, as if suddenly coming back to her senses.
If only she could be more cautious and rational.
Could it be that we'll be able to defeat that monster?
"Ha, defeated by the devil, coerced by the crow."
"It was really not a good experience."
The scarlet eye gradually calmed down, the red color dissipated, and it transformed into a normal eye.
The freedom to retain the power of the Witcher.
It's truly a miracle.
...
One group of demon hunters boarded the carriages, their bodies bound by iron shackles, like prisoners being escorted.
