“Livia!”

Suddenly there was a shout from the edge of the clearing.

Um?

Livia turned her head in confusion and saw Delon standing at the edge of the open space with his arms crossed.

Is there anything you need from me?

He thought doubtfully.

He turned around and patted Jim on the shoulder, asking him to squat a little lower and try to get into a bear-like posture.

"Keep this position as long as you can, and visualize a bear standing up."

"Um."

Jim gritted his teeth and hummed, cold sweat beginning to seep out of his forehead. Although his physique was considered good among ordinary people, it was very difficult for him to maintain this posture.

Looking at him, Livia nodded, turned and walked towards Delon who was waiting at the edge of the clearing.

"What's wrong, Deron?"

Livia asked doubtfully as she walked in front of Delon.

"Nothing, I just heard Diego tell me that you and Will are leaving in a few days?"

Deron waved his hand and smiled, "Will should leave tomorrow morning, I should need a few more days."

Livia nodded with certainty, “Alas, I haven’t thanked you properly yet.”

After getting the accurate answer, Delong sighed.

"No, that's enough. It's not like I won't come to Kovagr again in the future. There's still a long way to go, right?"

Livia smiled gently and said, "There is a long way to go...

Yes, there is a long way to go. "

Delon muttered quietly, looking up at the cloudless blue sky.

"We extraordinary people have a long life span if nothing unexpected happens."

Livia followed Delon's gaze and looked up at the sky, saying lightly.

Although it is unclear what the upper limit of a witcher's lifespan is, judging from the fact that Vesemir in the game is over four hundred years old and is still able to wield a sword and fight one against two Wild Hunt generals and the King of the Wild Hunt, I estimate that he can live for at least a few hundred more years. So if we take five hundred years as an example, I am only in my twenties, so I still have a few hundred years left.

According to the classics that the knight had read in the past few days, his lifespan was at least two to three hundred years.

"Right, what are you doing?

I remember he was a city guard of Kovagr."

Delon silently repeated the words "there is a long way to go" several times in his heart, then looked at Jim who was standing in a strange posture in the open space, and asked puzzledly.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Anyway, I'll tell you about this when the time comes."

Livia looked at Jim when he heard this, and remembered what he still had to say to Deron, "Huh?"

"This is how his family members...

Died in the previous chaos, I saw him...

His 'aptitude' is not bad, so I plan to train him to be a witcher like me."

“…

Witcher?

Is that the name of the power system in you that is completely different from that of knights, wizards, cultists, and sorcerers?"

Delon asked with a slight frown.

"Well, that's what I said when I first introduced myself. I'm not a bounty hunter, but a demon hunter.

This is an extraordinary path that originated from ancient times. Because the mortality rate of transformation is too high, the inheritance has long been cut off. I also became a witcher because of some accidents."

Livia answered calmly. He was not surprised at all that Delon would suddenly ask this question. After all, anyone who had seen him take action could basically sense the difference between his strength and that of the Knight Wizard.

"So you are going to accept a disciple and become a master."

Delong raised the corner of his mouth and put on a smile.

"Ahaha..." Livia touched the back of his head a little embarrassedly. "I am also a half-baked person now, and I haven't found the ingredients for the potion to become a witcher yet. So I told him that he should practice for a few years first, and I will come back in a few years to help him take the test to become a witcher."

Delon nodded. Seeing Delon nod, Livia hesitated and continued, "So I plan to let him keep Kovag first, can he...

Let him follow the Shadow Panther Knights to do the training that ordinary people can do. When the Shadow Panther Knights are doing extraordinary training, he will practice the swordsmanship and stance of the witcher. "

Delon frowned as Livia expected when he heard this. After all, training with the Shadow Leopard Knight meant having the opportunity to get a glimpse of the Shadow Leopard Knight's secret practice and special training methods.

There was silence for a while, and just when Livia was about to change her request, Deron spoke.

"Your power system is different from ours, so I don't have to worry about him stealing the secrets of the Shadow Panther Knight."

Hearing Delon's words of agreement, Livia laughed, "Thank you, don't worry, I just want him to be able to improve his physical fitness. I won't peek or learn anything secretly. After all, to become a witcher, the mortality rate of the Green Grass Trial is too high. Without a strong physical fitness, it is impossible to survive. Ordinary training methods and training intensity cannot improve it much."

“Is the mortality rate high?”

Delon asked doubtfully.

Livia placed his hand on the silver sword at his waist, lowered his head and said in a low and serious voice: "Because to become a witcher you have to drink a potion to undergo a certain degree of body mutation..." Livia didn't say much about the rest, but Delon also understood the meaning behind it. Using mutation to achieve transformation and become extraordinary? This is somewhat similar to the books he had read before about evil warlocks studying the structure of the human body, Delon frowned and thought.

"By the way, if possible, can you let him learn some knowledge about herbs and monsters? I...

There are no books.”

Livia also knew that her request was really too much, and said it a little embarrassedly.

"Okay, I'll provide him with some books on this subject."

This time, Deron nodded and agreed readily. After all, although knowledge is one of the most valuable things in the world, since he had already agreed to follow the training, this matter was not very important in comparison.

"Okay, I have to go take care of government affairs, you guys continue."

"Well, go ahead and do your work. If you need anything, just call me."

Livia looked at Delon and nodded, saying seriously, you can't ask others for so many things and then not help them. This time, you owe them a big favor. Now you are too weak to provide any help. You can only repay them when you become stronger in the future.

Delong smiled and shook his head, then turned and walked towards the castle.

Watching Delon's back disappear at the castle gate, Livia turned around and looked at Jim, who was covered in sweat and trembling all over, and nodded approvingly.

As an ordinary person who has just started to practice 'standing still', it is already quite good that I can hold on for so long. If I were someone who had just come through, I would probably not be able to hold on for less than a minute.

"Okay, take a break."

While walking slowly forward, he said to Jim who looked like he couldn't hold on any longer.

call……

Hearing Livia's words, Jim, who had been holding on entirely by willpower, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and fell to the ground in a big shape.

Bang!

Jim fell heavily to the ground, but he didn't care about the pain in his back. He breathed heavily. He felt that the past few minutes were more tiring than the intensive training he had received as a soldier.
