First Wizarding World War

When the carriage passed a village, Charlotte left the fare and got off the carriage quietly without disturbing the coachman.

Watching the carriage gallop away, Charlotte relaxed a little. He didn't want to go to the manor in the first place. After digesting the life essence he swallowed, he chose to slip away halfway, which would make it more difficult for the pursuers to figure out his whereabouts.

This village has a small population, probably only dozens of households, and a small street runs through the entire village.

At this time, it was already dark. Although Charlotte was extraordinary, she didn't dare to travel in the wilderness in the middle of the night. The wilderness of this world is not safe. Even near the capital Strasbourg, there are cannibalistic demons, ferocious beasts, and various inexplicable dangers.

Charlotte tried to knock on the doors of two villagers. The first one gave a rude voice and rejected his request for accommodation. The second one was much easier to talk to. Although it also rejected him, it pointed him to the home of Old John at the head of the village.

Old John was a hunter and occasionally did some business of hosting strangers.

When Charlotte found the old hunter's house, it was completely dark. He knocked on the door and asked for lodging. A tall and strong old man opened the door and said, "Come in!"

To Charlotte's surprise, the old hunter was not alone. There was a small adventure team in his room.

The team had five people, three men and two women. The leader was a middle-aged warrior with a giant axe. He was very alert and did not speak to Charlotte.

The other two men were slightly younger, in their thirties, with sabers hanging from their waists. Razors are great weapons in street duels, but in the wild and in the army, sabers with thick spines are common weapons. These two people were obviously experienced adventurers. In addition to weapons, they had a lot of miscellaneous things on them. They looked at Charlotte with a bit of caution.

Both ladies were very young and of average appearance. One was a typical Farsian with outstanding wavy blonde hair, and the other had short brown hair, probably of some southern Old World descent. Both women were in their early twenties, only a few years older than Sylvie.

The public society would teach various martial arts, and the national academy would teach breathing techniques, so even women would be able to develop good skills.

For example, Charlotte's ex-fiancee, Miss Sylvie Martin, was better at swordsmanship than him.

Many women chose to give up government work after graduation and became adventurers with their skilled martial arts or knowledge from formal training.

Because... the empire did have some gender discrimination in assigning jobs. Sylvie was not an exception to being sent to the countryside to work as a registrar, and other countries in the Old World were not much better.

The blonde young lady was very interested in Charlotte and asked, "Are you going to Yorktown for the white wolf, too?"

Charlotte smiled and said, "I was just passing by and didn't hear about the white wolf. What kind of beast is that?"

Several adventurers laughed, and the blonde young lady said, "The white wolf is not a beast. He is the best demon hunter and is very good at killing demons. Recently, he spread the word that he got the heart core of a demon and wanted to choose a successor."

Charlotte was slightly surprised. Demon hunter is a supernatural profession with a very wide range of "employment". Whether it is being employed by the government, being hired by nobles, or being hired by merchants, or even going it alone, it is a good choice. It is very profitable and a super high-paying industry.

He has two college classmates who chose the demon hunter profession. They successfully opened the supernatural and became demon hunters before graduation. Now their weekly income is at least ten forls, which is very enviable.

However, although the demon hunter has a wide range of "employment" prospects, this extraordinary profession has two major flaws: "employment" requires the heart core of a demon, which is very rare and extremely expensive, and ordinary people can't find it at all; facing demons requires fighting all the time, and although the income is lucrative, it is also extremely dangerous.

Charlotte also considered whether to choose to be a demon hunter, but finally chose Bloody Glory because he really didn't have much talent for fighting.

After taking a look at the five adventurers, Charlotte immediately determined that none of them had been promoted to the extraordinary level. He immediately had an idea and said with a smile: "I am not interested in becoming a demon hunter, but I am very curious about the visit. I wonder if I can go with you?"

"Don't worry, I won't compete with you for the opportunity to become a demon hunter, because..."

Charlotte gently pinched his fingers, and the air made a slight crackling sound. He smiled and said: "I have taken the path of a knight and am already an extraordinary person."

Charlotte certainly doesn't know how to fight. His power seed is still a seed, but it is not difficult to simulate fighting with bloody glory. After all, bloody glory is similar to fighting.

The five adventurers were immediately moved. The middle-aged warrior who used the giant axe hesitated for a moment and said, "My name is Mason. Welcome to join the Giant Axe Adventure Group."

The other two slightly younger men also gave their names. The blonde young lady was called Hannah, and the young lady with short brown hair was called He Mengsha. It was a name that really had some customs from the southern part of the Old World. This name was a bit weird for the authentic Fars Empire people.

Charlotte couldn't give his real name. He got inspiration from He Mengsha's name and made up a name that also had some customs from the southern part of the Old World, Qian Nan.

If you are alone, it is still quite eye-catching and easy to be found by pursuers, but if you act with an adventure team, no one will notice you and you can better hide your identity.

Joining the Great Axe Adventure Group, Charlotte threw out a centime copper coin and shouted, "Mr. Old John, do you have any wine? I'll buy a drink for my teammates."

The centime coins of the Fars Empire are dark red in color, and look very much like copper coins. They are also considered to be copper coins, but they are actually an alloy. Charlotte doesn't know the formula of this copper coin, but it is very wear-resistant and not easy to deform or fade.

Old John grabbed the copper coin and said lightly, "One centime is not enough."

Charlotte shrugged her shoulders and threw out two more centimes. Old John grabbed the copper coin and turned to get the wine.

Charlotte knew that one centime was not enough to buy wine, but deliberately created an image that he was not very rich, but very generous.

Although poor, but generous, it is easy to distinguish people from the former first-level clerk who had a high salary and few friends, and the former first-level clerk chief!

Old John quickly brought six large cups of beer and handed them to six people respectively.

Mason took the beer and immediately developed a great liking for Charlotte, shouting, "Chen Nan! You are the best new member I have ever seen."

He raised his glass and took a sip, with an indescribable satisfaction on his face.

Charlotte raised her glass and clinked it with the other four team members, and also took a sip.

Old John's beer was much worse than the sparkling cider he usually drank. It was slightly bitter and tasted more like beer, but the alcohol content was obviously much higher than beer.
