To Ciri, Semriya was an incomparably mysterious world.
Whether it was the Starlight Tower that was hundreds of meters tall that seemed to reach the sky, or the huge battleship that looked like a mountain range in the clouds, they all brought unimaginable shock to Ciri.
Not only that, but Hiri also got along well with Elfen, Laura, and the other girls of this world. For Hiri, she hadn't had friends of the same age as her in a long time. Moreover, these girls weren't like her in other worlds or her original world. They weren't afraid of her strength. On the contrary, they were no less powerful than Hiri. This made Xiri feel very happy. She felt much better in this world than in other worlds.
No one would treat her with malice, and no one would fear her. She could chat with girls of the same age and even spar with them.
For Ciri, this was a very unfamiliar but very reassuring experience. The girls also told her about the story of Semriya and the other world they had transmigrated to. They especially mentioned the biohazard crisis in Raccoon City. Ciri finally understood why they had locked her up for observation. Imagine a city of millions of people, most of them turned into the living dead because of a plague …. The scene was really scary.
After letting down their guard, Ciri told the girls about the situation in her own world. She specifically mentioned a profession called the Demon Hunter. According to Ciri, there were many monsters in her world, but they were different from the magical beasts in this world. In her world, there were vampires, werewolves, vampires, and other monsters hidden in the crowd. Demon hunters were people who specialized in hunting these monsters (Laura and the others felt that it was very similar to guerrillas). When Ciri was a child, she had received demon hunter training in a place called Kaer Morhen. Her adoptive father, Geralt, was a demon hunter.
But according to Ciri, demon hunters did not have a good situation in that world. Not only were they discriminated against by others, sometimes even when they risked their lives to complete a mission, the other party was not willing to pay them …. Hearing this, the girls could not believe it. They could not imagine that such a thing would happen again.
"Why is that?"
Elyse looked at Ciri in astonishment and asked her own question doubtfully.
"According to what you said, Miss Hiri, aren't the people in that world all ordinary people? They couldn't deal with the magical beasts, so they asked the demon hunters for help. But why would they be unwilling to pay the demon hunters? This is too much … How can there be such a person? "
"I don't know. In short … demon hunters aren't welcomed in that world. Perhaps they think … demon hunters aren't human at all."
Ciri smiled bitterly and helplessly. The other young ladies looked at each other in dismay. They were born in Semlia, so they couldn't imagine such a thing happening. After all, according to Hiri, demon hunters weren't that powerful in the eyes of the girls. They were just physically stronger than ordinary people and could use some magical powers …. They could do that too. In other words, in the continent of Semlia, as long as you had perseverance and quality, you could become stronger through training.
It was precisely because of this that the people of this world would not feel fear or panic when facing guerillas or superhuman beings. Instead, they would feel more respect and longing for them. Therefore, they couldn't understand why the ordinary people of that world would hate demon hunters so much.
As for not paying for the magical beasts …. that was even harder to imagine. Ciri even said that not only did the villagers refuse to pay, they even tried to kill the demon hunters …. This made the girls even more confused. You can't even kill the magical beasts, yet you want to kill the demon hunters who can exterminate the magical beasts?
Think about it, if someone asked the Sword Sage of the Wind to exterminate a magical beast and didn't pay for it …. Well, it was really unimaginable.
What surprised the girls even more was that even if the villagers reneged on their promise, most demon hunters couldn't do anything to them. That world seemed to discriminate against demon hunters, so even if they went to the lord for arbitration, it would be useless. Therefore, the demon hunters basically had no choice but to leave when the villagers reneged on their promise.
Because if they attacked the villagers instead, they would be treated as wanted criminals. Of course, there were cases of demon hunters being attacked by the villagers after they completed their mission, and the villagers killed the whole village. Although the demon hunters were able to vent their anger, it only deepened the fear and uneasiness of the people of the world towards demon hunters ….
"By the way, let's not talk about that."
Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was a little strange, Ciri smiled and changed the topic.
"Demon hunters are boring to talk about. Let me tell you about vampires."
"Vampires?"
"Yeah, you don't know, right? In my world, there's a monster called the Vampire Banshee. They disguise themselves as beautiful women and wander the streets in the middle of the night, seducing men and sucking their blood dry. This monster usually turns invisible at night. She will sing a beautiful song to attract her prey to take the bait...."
Although Ciri had never encountered a vampire before, any demon hunter would have memorized the Monster Encyclopedia by heart. So, she told the story of a vampire vividly, and it gave the girls goosebumps.
"Oh … .so scary. I didn't expect there to be such a monster."
"By the way, Laura, Elise, I remember there are rumors of vampires in your Empire."
At this moment, Alleyn seemed to have thought of something. She looked curiously at her companions from the Empire.
"Are the vampires in your Empire like this too?"
"Well …."
In the face of Alleyn's curious question, the girls from the Empire were dumbfounded.
"This … I don't know."
"It's just folklore. I've never seen a real vampire. I don't know if they're as scary as Miss Ciri said …."
"No!!!"
However, at that moment, Emma suddenly jumped up and shouted loudly, giving everyone a fright.
"Class monitor?"
"What's wrong?"
"Ah … .that …."
Sensing the puzzled gazes of the others, Emma blushed and lowered her head.
"That …. I mean, the vampires of our Empire are definitely not like this. The vampires of our Empire should be the very … .friendly kind! The kind that doesn't bite! "
"….???"
"Okay, let's go back. It's going to be dark soon."
Seeing the gazes of her companions around her, Emma hurriedly changed the topic. Today, the girls from the Martial Arts Department came out to assist the guards in eliminating the wanted magical beasts, so they were now in the wild forest. It was because of this scene that Ciri mentioned about the demon hunters.
"Okay."
The others didn't think much of it. They nodded and prepared to move forward. But at that moment, a cold wind suddenly blew, causing the girls to shiver.
"Phew … .it's so cold!"
"Why is it so cold?"
Feeling the chill, the girls were quite surprised. Although the temperature in the forest would indeed drop in the evening, it shouldn't be this cold. It was summer now!
But soon, they discovered something even stranger.
"Look, it's snowing!!"
Laura raised her hand in astonishment as she watched the snowflakes falling from the sky. The girls also raised their heads in confusion as they watched the white snowflakes falling from the sky.
"It's summer, right? Why is it snowing?"
"What's going on?"
The girls were puzzled, but Ciri's expression changed drastically. She stared at her surroundings vigilantly. At the same time, a thin mist appeared from all directions, and the faint sound of hooves could be heard in the air.
Hearing the hoofbeats, Hiri's face finally turned ashen.
"Not good, it's the Wild Hunt!!!"
"The Wild Hunt?"
"What's the Wild Hunt?"
"They're here to chase me! Hurry up and leave! "
As she spoke, Ciri unsheathed her sword, wanting to rely on her own strength to block the enemies. But what she didn't expect was that the girls didn't leave. Instead, they picked up their weapons and formed a formation around Ciri.
"In other words, they're the ones chasing after you, Miss Ciri?"
"They actually came to this world? How did they get here? "
"Great, let's show them our strength! Don't worry, Miss Ciri, we're not to be trifled with!! "
"This …."
Ciri was at a loss as she looked at the girls around her full of fighting spirit. In the past, she was always alone on the run. Even with help, they couldn't survive the pursuit of the Wild Hunt. Because of this, Ciri always kept a distance from others. After all, even her adoptive father and her friends were tortured by the Wild Hunt. She naturally didn't want to implicate others.
But ….. these girls …..
Ciri had exterminated magical beasts with them before, so she knew how strong they were. In her eyes, these girls were a mix of Warlocks and Demon Hunters in her world. Not only did they possess powerful combat skills and physical fitness that were not inferior to Demon Hunters, but they could also cast all kinds of magical spells like Warlocks.
Maybe they could really ….. help her?
"Hiss —!!!"
Just as this thought flashed through Ciri's mind, the sound of horses neighing suddenly echoed in the sky. The next moment, they saw several figures wearing strange armours on warhorses descending from the sky and charging towards them!!
