The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World

When Amavit submitted the paper, he solemnly asked Dean Tissaya to read it in person first. If she felt it was valuable, she must formally promise to prevent the paper from being circulated.

Two hours later, Dean Tissaya called four vice deans and made the paper confidential in person, and applied magical protection and magic encryption. Only part of the content will be extracted each time to compile the core textbooks of the college, and the original paper will never be published again.

When the others left and only two people were left in the office, Dean Tissaya said: "Your tuition is very generous, even far more than that."

"Can I ask for some compensation?" Amavit made a little gesture with his thumb and index finger.

"Oh, what makes you so concerned? I haven't seen you take the initiative to ask for things since you were a child." Dean Tissaya asked curiously.

"That." Amavit pointed to the handbag belonging to Dean Tissaya on the windowsill next to the dean's desk.

The handbag is the same color as the dean's skirt and is about the same size as a medium-sized women's purse.

Amavit saw Dean Tissaia take out a set of telescopes from it. A set of telescopes includes 6 metal brackets more than half a meter long and a bunch of miscellaneous parts.

"I should travel frequently in the future, and magic packages will be very useful to me."

"No problem. Although magic packages are precious, they are not so precious to you. With your ability, you can make magic packages yourself within 20 years. If it's just this, you will lose a lot, Marvin."

"It doesn't matter, I'll owe you the rest first." Amavit is not polite. Climbing up the pole is a necessary skill for elite social animals.

The elegant and dignified dean took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Okay, what are your requirements?"

"It can fit my sword and travel bag, no other requirements."

"Fortunately you don't..."

His Royal Highness shrugged.

…

A week later, Amavit received his magic package, a shoulder bag the size of a computer bag, not as exquisite as Dean Tissaya's.

"Fortunately, Wagner still has stock, otherwise you would have to wait."

"Thank you, teacher, thank you very much. I still have to practice. I'm leaving now." Amavit thanked sincerely and ran away. He was really anxious.

He trotted back to his dormitory, locked the front door, and went out the back door to see that there was no one around. His Royal Highness returned to the bedroom and looked at the magic package in his hand.

[Hint: Found a space storage device, do you want to absorb and merge? After absorption and fusion, a new function will be enabled, the item bar. 】【Yes】【No】

Nothing to say, choose yes.

In the learning machine, a new interface, the item bar, has been added. It is a blank page, and there is nothing in it at the moment.

After roaming around in the bedroom, I selected the pillow at the head of the bed. When the idea of ​​storage came up, the pillow in my hand disappeared. In the item interface of the learning machine, an identical pillow occupied a corner of the entire page.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, the pillow was pulled out of thin air in front of his hand.

After the pillow disappeared again, Amavit walked around the room again, throwing a bunch of miscellaneous things into the inventory, books, practice swords, clothes, armor, gloves, rags... and then he couldn't throw anything in.

He opened the inventory and found that one page was full.

An idea came to him, he stretched out his hand, took out the rag and put it back in place, put the armor away... After clearing the inventory, Amavit's eyes looked back and forth between the table and the bed.

After some experiments, the inventory has a volume of about 2 cubic meters. The specific data is unknown, and there is no fixed length, width and height limit. Whether it is full can be seen through the inventory of the learning machine.

He walked around the room with great interest, put the necessary supplies such as weapons and armor maintenance tools, some fruit bread, etc. into the space, and put a few bottles of clean water into the space, and put away the two most commonly used practice swords.

Looking at the inventory that was still half empty, he sat on the sofa with satisfaction.

He was too excited just now, and now he calmed down and thought. The magic package is missing, but Dean Tissaia must not find out. It's hard to explain. So, during this time in the academy, I have to follow my usual habits. Unless necessary, put things outside and don't store them in the inventory.

Thinking of this, he took out the two practice swords and put them back in place. Be careful in everything.

…

Two and a half months after Amavite enrolled in Aretuza Academy, news came from Drina in Vizima that the bartender of Velen Crow's Nest had been secretly dealt with by Baron Viserad.

Three months after enrollment, the learning progress of "Meditation Method" reached 100%, and the learning machine added:

[Meditation: 1 + (After entering the meditation state, physical consumption is reduced by 10%, energy recovery speed is increased by 5%, mental attributes and perception attributes are slowly improved, and mental trauma and mental trauma are slowly healed)]

…

Five and a half months after enrollment, the study of swordsmanship reached a bottleneck, and the learning progress of "Ming Dynasty Sword Weapon Atlas and Swordsmanship Summary" reached 34%.

All sword techniques have been learned, including the two two-handed sword techniques of Qijia Dao (Xinyou Sword Technique) and Miao Dao (Single Sword Technique Selection). Note ②

Because at certain times during the battle, Amawit needs to free up his left hand to cast spells, and at other times he needs to hold the sword with both hands for powerful attacks or blocking, the grip specifications and weight of the hand-and-a-half sword are the most suitable, and it can be held with one hand or two hands.

Qijia Dao and Miao Dao are too long and are more suitable for military battles, and are not flexible enough for small-scale battles.

Furthermore, most of the swordsmanship and knife skills learned so far are for fighting against humans. Only the swordsmanship of the demon hunter involves fighting against non-human beings.

In the future, you need to explore the integration of various sword skills and sword skills in battle to make it more suitable for you.

Amavit also tested the cutting, stabbing, dragging performance and blade strength of each knife one by one.

Among all knife types, Amavit prefers the Yanling knife, but the Yanling knife is too thin and narrow and the blade is indeed not strong enough, so it broke during the strength test.

The Ofel scimitar is excellent in terms of balance and strength, but the head part is too curved, making its stabbing performance poor.

Because of the excellent quality of the four training swords, he trusted the craftsmanship of the Okan family's blacksmith shop.

In order to get a knife that is more suitable for him, Amavit asked Dean Tissaya for a week's leave, went to the Okan family's blacksmith shop again, and hired the master blacksmith Hatori Okan for a high price of 500 oren.

After several experiments, the final shape of the knife was determined: the length of the blade is 94cm, the width of the blade is 3.8cm, and the thickest part is 0.4cm. The back 2/3 of the blade is a straight edge, the front 1/3 is slightly curved and gradually tapered, and the tip is edged on both sides, resembling a wild goose feather. The blade has a long blood groove running the entire length, and no other weight-reducing grooves. It has a metal straight handle, the handle is 23cm long, and there is a 9cm long pyramid-shaped weighted ball at the end of the handle for close-range armor breaking. The metal handle is wrapped with a cooked cowhide rope, and the oval mouthpiece replaces the most popular cross mouthpiece of this era. (Prevent blood from flowing to the handle of the knife and enhance blocking ability).

The entire knife is 126cm long, made of Mahakam rune steel, and weighs 3.7 pounds (1.67kg). The center of gravity of the entire knife is 14cm in front of the handle, which is slightly forward, but Amavit's already strong strength can be perfectly controlled.

A new sword was forged that had never been seen before. Master Hatori Okan was very satisfied with it and provided it with a scabbard for free. The scabbard was made of red cedar wood and wrapped in brown snakeskin. The workmanship was excellent.

Amavit is currently 178cm tall, but considering that he will continue to grow taller in the past few years, this knife is currently a bit long.

Drawing a knife from behind is no longer allowed, and the knife is usually hung on the waist.

As for the problem that steel swords cannot effectively damage monsters, Amavit, a warlock, plans to use enchantment to solve the problem.

Dean Tisaya has become quite interested in this and has contacted Valley Daisy Francesca and Hen Gedides to conduct research together. Both of these are spellcasters who have lived for who knows how long and are also tisha Dean Saya's best friend.

…

Seven months after Amavit enrolled, when the sky was snowing, Dean Tissaya informed him that the weapon enchantment problem had been solved.

The two came to Tisaya's dedicated laboratory. His knife was placed on the workbench, and a complicated set of magic potion extraction equipment was still cooking something.

Two experimental assistants operate the extraction equipment.

There are several boxes of crystals and other magical materials piled in the corner of the laboratory, as well as a dozen experimental waste weapons.

Seeing this, the prince was a little surprised and said slightly embarrassed: "Teacher, did it cost so much?"

Dean Tisaya looked at her students with a bit of amusement in her heart. She had rarely seen His Highness the Prince show such an expression.

She walked to the workbench, picked up a few pieces of parchment and handed it to Amavit, and said, "It is indeed very expensive and difficult. It was only after Gorhart took out two ancient manuscripts that we came up with the idea. . These are the alchemy part of the inscribed rune and the magic formula. Depending on your level, you should be able to learn it in two months. Now I finally understand why the demon hunter needs to bring an extra silver sword."

The prince gave the teacher a curious look.

Dean Tisaya sighed: "Money! Not counting the cost of research, just alchemy and enchanting, it costs at least 300 orens. How much does a silver sword cost? 80 orens or 100 orens?"

Amavit said to himself: 'Fortunately, I have the ability to make money. ’

He took his knife and the enchanting information, and the two returned to the dean's office. Tisaya sat down behind the desk, sorted the files on the table and said, "The favor is finally repaid."

Amavit knew that the dean was referring to that paper, and said a little apologetically: "I didn't expect it to cost so much. In fact, I can pay for it."

"I can't take advantage of my own students, let alone a prince, my lord."

"Teacher, we don't want to be so weird."

"Okay. You've been here for half a year, don't you plan to go back?"

"Why are you going back? I'm too lazy to take care of things, and there's no need for me at home. The college is nice, no one bothers me. The pretty girls in the college are more eye-catching than the cold guards in the palace."

"Oh, then you hung Fulin up all night? You are 18 years old, don't you really want to take advantage of a few of them?"

Sorceresses are all LSPs, even Dean Tissaya, who seems very serious, is well-informed. The long lifespan and pursuit of magical truth make it difficult for warlocks to accept the secular concept of marriage.

Amavit knew that the dean was referring to the female professor who planned to attack His Royal Highness at night a few months ago, so he spread his hands helplessly:

"For now, I just plan to entertain my eyes. Just get started. I'll skip this topic. I haven't finished the fifth-year courses yet. Enchanting and alchemy are only introductory. I don't plan to leave the academy so early. Maybe I'll go back during the May Festival. Is there any additional fee to come back and continue studying?”

"No, you can stay as long as you want. You are the best student I have ever taught, smart and hard-working. For Aretusa, there are not many opportunities to train such an outstanding student." Tisaya looked at her students, very satisfied.

"Oh, by the way, teacher, can you find Alzu's magic notebook? You know, I have always been curious about the alchemy and sigils of the demon hunters."

"No, these things have been well protected since the demon hunter cult period. Moreover, Alzu is too powerful and a madman, so we hardly deal with him."

"Is Alzu from Maribo? Then will there be his laboratory?"

"I don't know. If he has a laboratory left, it is likely to be in Maribo. But you know, his double cross summoning destroyed half of the city, and he himself was killed by the summoned demon, and everything was gone. I don't know if anyone has looked for him since then."

Every time Amavite thought of Alzu's story, he felt that this guy should be the ancestor of the crazy scientists in America. He always made things that he couldn't control, and then destroyed his own land.

"Maybe I should go to Maribor and look around, maybe I can find something."

"Maybe. Why don't you go to Kaer Siren or Kaer Morhen to ask those witchers? After all, you are not short of money, but they seem to be quite short of money."

"I asked the witchers of the Griffin and Wolf factions, and they refused to let me go to their castles."

"Oh, by the way, I heard recently that someone is quite interested in the Griffin faction and has been asking about Kaer Siren and the Griffin School." Note ①

Amavite's heart was beating fast. Is the doomsday of Kaer Siren coming soon? The prince said calmly: "It's new. Haven't you always looked down on demon hunters? Teacher."

"It's not the Warlock Brotherhood. We really have no interest in demon hunters. It's other people, a small group, it seems to be called the "Mage Union."

"It's good to have people with the same hobbies. Teacher, please help me find out about the situation. Maybe we can cooperate."

"It's a small matter. You have to ask the dwarf blacksmith to engrave runes on your sword, and you can do the rest by yourself. You can use my laboratory and the remaining materials. Is it okay?"

Knowing that the teacher is training himself, Amavit replied: "No problem. Goodbye, teacher."

...

Of course, Amavit will not cooperate with the "Mage Union". The Griffin Faction is the only group of demon hunters with all members being upright. Although being upright cannot add points to His Royal Highness, the magic knowledge in the castle is what he needs.

In addition, it is a pity that the Griffin Faction is destroyed with a little bit of thoughts brought from the previous life.

…

Note ①: Kaer Seren is the base camp castle of the Griffin witchers. It is located on the coastline of Povis in the northwest corner of the map, at the northernmost end of the Dragon Mountains where the map meets the sea. The Griffin witchers are knights among the witchers. They value their companions, are humble and polite, and save the dying and the wounded... They abide by all the knightly codes, and the Griffin School has a lot of knowledge about magic and signs. Because they coveted the magic knowledge of the Griffin School, a group of mages came to ask for sharing, but were rejected by the Griffin School. So the mages created a big avalanche on the top of Kaer Seren, destroying Kaer Seren and most of the Griffin witchers, and burying all the books inside. Who are these mages? There is no information at all. I made up the Mage Union and set it as an ambitious new mage organization, hoping to use the knowledge of the Griffin School to strengthen itself and compete with the Warlock Brotherhood as soon as possible. There is some vague information indicating that the Ker Sirens were destroyed at the end of the 12th century, so it is not a problem if it is ten years earlier.
