I joined the group chat as Aizen in the Ninja World

"Forget it." An Ran sighed helplessly.

The so-called Rose Lover is a kind of enlightenment book unique to this world. This kind of enlightenment is not for children, but for adults.

All kinds of dirty jokes and professional terms are thrown around like crazy, even a pure girl will become a real old driver after watching it.

"So, what did you see?" Gabby's curiosity was clearly uncontrollable, and he asked loudly, "Could it be a deer-headed spirit? Could it be a deer-headed spirit? I heard that deer-headed spirits are extremely terrifying!"

The so-called Deer-Headed Spirit is actually a spirit born in the dense forest. Born and raised in the wild, it possesses special powers unique to the forest.

The head of a deer-headed spirit resembles a deer's head with its flesh removed, and its body is made of vines and branches. They can manipulate vegetation and drive wild beasts, possess a certain degree of intelligence, and can use special magic.

Deer-headed demons are troublesome and dangerous. Ordinary demon hunters would abandon their missions if they were asked to do so. Only experienced and well-prepared demon hunters would attempt to hunt them.

"We're here." An Ran still didn't answer, but walked to the small river on the right side of the forest.

From the crevice of the rocks on the left side of the stream, a white-haired old man in plain clothes walked out. He had a knight's sword hanging at his waist and his face was covered with wrinkles.

"What? Just an old human?" The little black cat was very disappointed and the whole cat wilted.

The moment the old man saw An Ran, he knelt on one knee and performed a standard knight's salute.

"No need for that, let's go." An Ran waved her hand, jumped past him and jumped directly onto the boat.

"Why is he bowing to you?" The little black cat was a little confused and asked directly. "Who is this old man?"

"He's a knight." An Ran explained with a smile, "A full-time guardian knight."

"Guardian Knight?" The little black cat was even more confused, his eyes widening. "Guardian who? What else do you need to protect in a place like this?"

As soon as it finished speaking, the old knight rowed the boat. The boat pushed through the layers of waves and slowly sailed towards the center of the lake.

Before they even got close to the shore, An Ran and the little black cat saw a ray of golden light. In the dark night sky, the golden light was as dazzling as the sun.

Wrapped in golden light, a lady with disheveled hair walked slowly towards them barefoot.

894 Evil God

The lady had naturally curly algae-green hair, a snow-white veil draped over her body, bluish-gray skin, pointed ears, and a stunningly beautiful appearance, looking like an elf fallen into the mortal realm.

The little black cat was completely mesmerized, its entire body dazed. But soon, it reacted, blushing and saying, "Quick! An Ran, turn your head away! She's wearing too little!"

"What an amusing little creature," the curly-haired lady said, amused by it, her ethereal voice echoing. "It's quite rare to see a shapeshifter that chooses to transform into an animal."

"You can actually see through my true form?" The little black cat's eyes widened as he asked, "You, who are you?"

"My name is Beatrice." The curly-haired lady smiled slightly. "Of course, you can also call me the Lady of the Lake."

"Lady of the Lake?" The little black cat was stunned, its expression a little dull. It didn't understand the special meaning of the name "Lady of the Lake" at the moment, but it found it very strange.

"This name can also be translated as the Fairy of the Lake." An Ran explained it to it.

"Ah!" The little black cat exclaimed in disbelief, "Fairy of the Lake? You must be kidding! Isn't that a god from mythology? Are there really gods in this world?"

"Of course there are." Beatrice turned her gaze to An Ran and chuckled, "Right, my compatriot."

"I'm not your compatriot." An Ran shook her head.

He knew very well that the other party had sensed his divinity and therefore considered him a fellow countryman. But in reality, An Ran and the other party were completely different gods.

The lake fairies of this world aren't actually true gods, but rather demigods embodied in localized beliefs, stemming from ordinary humans' worship and reverence for the lake.

An Ran, on the other hand, needed no faith or worship. He was a god who had mastered the rules of nature, and this embodiment of rules would not be weakened in any world.

"I understand what you mean." Beatrice, clearly misunderstanding An Ran's meaning, shook her head slightly. "Actually, like you, I'm not a true god either. So, we're compatriots."

After hearing the conversation between the two, the little black cat was even more confused. He looked at An Ran, then at Beatrice not far away, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Okay, as long as you're happy." An Ran didn't argue or explain the matter any further. It was meaningless. "Let's get straight to the point, ma'am."

"I like direct people." Beatrice winked at An Ran and smiled. "I don't know why you disguised yourself as a demon hunter, but I think you must have something you want to accomplish. However, the identity of a demon hunter is a very good disguise. Can I ask you to complete a demon hunting mission for me?"

"Tell me about it." An Ran seemed to have expected this and said without comment.

"This forest lake wasn't originally like this." Beatrice looked toward the nearby lake, where the once clear water had turned black, as if stained by ink. "Its source is an alien species, or perhaps an evil deity."

"Evil, evil gods?!" Before An Ran could even begin to speak, the little black cat screamed. "Really, there really are evil gods? Aren't they just stories?"

"Whether gods or evil gods, they are all constructed from human thoughts and beliefs," Beatrice said bluntly. "The kindness and purity of humans or intelligent creatures create good gods, while evil thoughts and resentment create evil gods."

An Ran didn't respond and continued to wait for her next words.

"Of course, the conditions for the birth of either the evil or good gods are extremely harsh." Beatrice shook her head and said, "Not only does it require human faith and belief, but it also requires a high level of magical power. In this world, the birth of a true god is impossible."

"Impossible?!" The little black cat was stunned and said in disbelief: "Then you..."

"So, we're not gods in the strictest sense." Beatrice smiled and said, "But that evil god is different. He is a genuine evil god. He wasn't born in our world, but was drawn here by the evil thoughts of our world."

"Is it possible?" The little black cat felt that his cognition was a little overturned.

"The evil god I attracted wasn't the real one either." Beatrice sighed helplessly, "He's just a projection, but I can't do anything about him. Even most of my people who believed in me have turned to him."

Beatrice was referring to the murlocs, whom An Ran had discovered earlier. They possessed the divine aura of the good gods, but now they had been tainted.

"My compatriots, please help me." Beatrice looked at An Ran with sincerity. "I swear in my god's name that I will be your most loyal partner."

"Companion?!" As if thinking of something, the little black cat's head began to smoke. "Isn't this too hasty?"

"I don't need a partner." An Ran shook her head and said, "Besides, I already have a partner."

"That's a shame." Beatrice sighed, looking a little disappointed, but not angry. "Besides this, I can't offer you any other bounty."

"I'm a demon hunter." An Ran turned and left without looking back, her voice heard from afar. "Sometimes, demon hunters exorcise demons just for fun."

Beatrice's eyes widened as she finished speaking, a look of disbelief on her face. She had expected the other party to directly reject her request, but she hadn't expected such a sudden turn of events.

Just for fun, she offended a genuine evil god. She had never seen such a strange compatriot since she was born.

Beatrice felt a strong curiosity and interest in him. Just as she was about to ask him for information, she suddenly saw a ray of silver light in the sky.

The silver light began to fall like a meteor, gradually evolving into a sharp sword shining in the sky.

Boom.

The longsword descended, piercing the center of the temple where the evil god's projection resided. The thick black clouds and the lake waters, tainted by the evil aura, vanished.

895 A Unique Demon Hunter

Temeria.

Located on the western side of the continent, south of the Ponta River, it is one of the four most powerful kingdoms in the world and one of the first three nations in human history. After centuries of evolution, it has become the present-day Temeria Dynasty. The kingdom's emblem is a black shield adorned with a silver fleur-de-lis pattern.

Years ago, after the devastating war with Nilfgaard, many regions of Temeria were invaded by all kinds of monsters, and the roads became unsafe due to outlaws and bandits.

It wasn't until Foltest came to the throne that this wise monarch issued a series of decrees that made the country prosperous again and gained a wider influence.

of course.

King Foltest could only be described as wise, not a wise ruler. After all, his reputation within the ruling class was utterly terrible.

After he ascended the throne, he married his own sister as queen despite opposition and had a child with her. He was heartbroken until his sister died and never remarried.

But a few years ago, he fell in love with the wife of the Lord of the Barony of La Valette, and secretly met with her. The two later gave birth to a pair of twin boys and a girl.

Your circle is in chaos, but this has nothing to do with the guards at the gates of Vizima.

The two newly transferred young guards, admiring the military life of the Blue Guards, resolutely signed up for the army. However, they did not expect that not only would they not be admitted to the Blue Guards, but they would also be assigned to such a boring position.

Perhaps for those veterans, this leisurely job of guarding the gate was harmless and suitable for retirement, but for the young and energetic teenagers, it was pure torture.

"Damn it!" The guard on the left couldn't help but complain, "How am I going to explain to Emma that I'm doing this kind of guard work? She's definitely going to look down on me!"

"When I left home, my father was so proud that he carved a tombstone for me." The guard on the right sighed and said, "It says Grant of the Blue Guards, buried here."

"Brother Grant, you're even worse off than me." The guard on the left looked at him with sympathy.

"You too, Brother Gal." Grant shook his head and said, "When you go back, your Emma will definitely have fallen in love with someone else."

"Thank you so much!" Gar's mouth twitched and his face was full of black lines.

"Hahaha, just a joke... wait, what is that?" Grant looked at the distant sky with a panic expression on his face.

"That's a bird?!" Garl followed his gaze, his pupils gradually dilating. "Wow, what a big bird!"

"That's not a bird, it's a griffin!" Grant, who was quite knowledgeable, instantly recognized the exact species of the creature in the sky. "Quick! Sound the alarm!"

The griffin is a very famous creature in this world.

Like other creatures, they came into this world through the opportunity of the intersection of the celestial spheres and possessed no magical powers. But even without magical powers, these creatures were still the nightmares of most creatures.

They have sharp claws, extremely fast speed, huge body and terrifying flying ability. Ordinary humans are as powerless as newborn lambs when facing such monsters.

However, normally, griffins would never attack a human town, let alone a capital city like Vizima. What was going on?

Before Grant could figure out the situation, a huge griffin had already descended.

Ding-ding-ding-ding.

A clear alarm bell rang out, and dozens of fully armed elite soldiers filed out of the city gate and surrounded the griffin.

pat.

At that moment, a handsome young man jumped down from the griffin's back. A small black kitten curled up on his shoulder, his black eyes fixed on the group of soldiers before him.

"Are you... a demon hunter?" The leading officer frowned and walked forward to ask.

"The demon hunters are safe." The young man nodded and said, "They are my pets. They won't hurt anyone."

Upon hearing the other party's admission, the leading officer's frown gradually relaxed, and he dismissed his soldiers. "Your pet cannot enter the city, even if it is not dangerous. You can keep it in a stable outside the city, but you will need to buy your own rations."

Because the King of Temeria and Geralt are close friends, the city's officials are not very opposed to the profession of witcher.

But it's just not resisting, not to the point of smiling at others.

"Well, that's not necessary." An Ran waved at the griffin, and it soared into the sky. After flapping its wings a few times, it disappeared over the horizon. "Now, can I come in?"

The officer raised a brow and stepped aside. Able to tame a griffin as a mount, this young demon hunter was far more than he appeared. Even if it was a high-ranking officer in Temeria, he didn't want to offend him too much.

Walking into the city gate with Gabby in a swagger, the little black cat finally couldn't help but speak. "You, is it really like what Beatrice said? You are compatriots, and you are also a demigod?"

"How could you believe such nonsense?" An Ran smiled and said, "How could I be a demigod?"

He is a true God, and a true God who is not bound by the world. Demigod is simply a slander against him.

The little black cat obviously misunderstood his meaning and breathed a sigh of relief, "That's what I told you! Even if, even if you are extremely powerful, you definitely haven't reached the level of a god yet!"

"Isn't God good?" An Ran asked doubtfully.

"It's not bad." The little black cat shook his head and said, "But after all, gods don't belong to this world. Gods and us living beings are two different creatures. They are too far away and too high up. They can't reach them at all."

"Well, it's better to be a human being." An Ran nodded seriously, as if agreeing with it.

"Little one, be careful!" Just as the man and the cat were talking, a reckless figure suddenly rushed towards them.

896 Shani and the Scoia'tael

pat.

An Ran was quick to catch the girl who was about to fall. However, the girl was trying to avoid An Ran and didn't want to bump into him.

In a sense, this can be considered as good people being rewarded.

"Thank you, thank you!" The girl didn't expect that someone would hold her back at the critical moment. She was ready to accept the pain of falling.

"No need." An Ran shook her head and looked at the girl gently.

Only then did I realize that the other person was actually an acquaintance.

She is the popular female doctor, Shani, who competed with Triss for the heroine's throne in the first game of the Witcher series. However, Shani is still just a teenager with cute freckles on her face.

"You, you're a witcher?" The girl was stunned when she saw An Ran's attire. "Do you know Geralt?"

"My demon hunter swordsmanship comes from him." An Ran did not shy away from this and said it bluntly.

Shani and Geralt have known each other for a long time, which is mentioned in the original book.

Back in the academy, Geralt's best friend Dandelion was Shani's senior. The talented bard, known for his romantic charm, was truly helpless only when faced with Shani.

Shani wasn't interested in romantic matters, but rather medicine and adventure. Demon hunters, who were associated with adventure, naturally piqued her interest.

By chance, Shani met Geralt. However, Shani was only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and even Geralt, who was a pile driver, had no interest in taking action.

The two became good friends, and Shani's desire for adventure was satisfied by Geralt's legendary experience.
