Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 2 Badge of the Wolf School

In Kaer Morhen's kitchen, Wayne, who had changed into clean clothes and was cooking breakfast for himself and the old witcher Vesemir, suddenly heard it.

Cooking proficiency +1, current progress 100.

Cooking LV1 is upgraded to Cooking LV2.

Cooking LV2: cooking delicacy +2.

Hearing this prompt, Wayne's mood immediately became better.

After a period of exploration, he found that traveling through the attached demon hunter system could not only improve the demon hunter's own skills, but also learn additional skills such as archery, cooking, and hunting.

And these subsidiary skills, in addition to the degree he has mastered, can also be strengthened by the system just like the demon hunter's own skills.

His father in his previous life was a professional chef in a big foodie empire. Under his influence, although Wayne has not yet married, he already has a good cooking skill.

Now that I have come to the world of the witcher, both archery and cooking skills have been recognized by the system. It has to be said that this is also a blessing.

With such a happy mood, Wayne left the kitchen with a ready breakfast.

Unlike swordsmanship, which is extremely difficult to improve, Wayne's culinary skills may be due to the blessing of past experience. Almost every time he cooks, he can get some proficiency improvement.

In addition, he likes to cook for himself, so he didn't expect to be promoted from level one to level two in just one month.

The increase in delicacy also made the food he cooked more delicious, which won the love and praise of the old witcher.

Walking into the castle hall, Vesemir was still asleep on the armchair, but when Wayne approached with a fragrant breakfast.

The old witcher's nose couldn't help twitching, and while opening his eyes, he said with emotion:
"Well, freshly baked wheat bread, fried eggs and grilled fish with pine nuts, and fragrant mushroom broth."

"I bet that such a breakfast, even decent people in the city, can't eat better than us."

"Son, I didn't expect that you are so talented in cooking. I have been to many countries, and maybe only those noble chefs are a little better than you."

There was a smile on Wayne's face that was praised by the elders, and he handed a breakfast to the hand of the old witcher before he said:

"Mr. Vesemir, I really like the feeling of enjoying delicious food, and only by absorbing enough nutrients will I have more physical strength to complete the training of the demon hunter."

Vesemir nodded in approval, then hesitated for a few seconds before asking:
"Wayne, after the grass trial, your personality seems to have changed a lot, and you have become more cheerful and positive than before."

"At this point, you are different from everyone else. That kind of painful torture has cast a shadow on many people's hearts, making them more withdrawn and extreme."

Wayne had already prepared an answer to this question. He tilted his head and pretended to think about it for a while before answering:

"I don't know why, teacher, after the danger of almost dying this time, I feel that I should become more brave, face life more positively, and not let myself have regrets."

Upon hearing this, Vesemir nodded thoughtfully. Looking at the positive Wayne, the old man nodded in relief.

However, he still did not forget to warn:
"My child, don't let the past hold you back. Bravery is a good thing, but excessive bravery is recklessness."

"Come on, after breakfast, let's start teaching."

Demon hunters are not a profession that relies on brute force. They are experts in hunting monsters. In addition to their own sword skills and seals, they also need to learn a lot of knowledge.

Especially after the celestial bodies converged, monsters from other worlds came to this world, coupled with the influence of chaotic magic, local creatures also experienced various changes.

In the entire witcher world, there are more than hundreds of various monsters, powerful as dragons, giants, demons, weak like water ghosts, goblins, and bugs. Each monster has its own special abilities and special habits.

If you can't figure out the abilities and weaknesses of these monsters, even experienced demon hunters will easily die during the mission.

Therefore, almost every apprentice demon hunter must train under the teaching of the old demon hunter for nearly ten years.

They need to learn a lot of monster knowledge, and the things they need to memorize are not much less than modern nine-year compulsory students.

Just like now, although Wayne's current body is only 14 years old, his daily training schedule is fully arranged.

He practiced swordsmanship for a few hours in the morning, learned various monster knowledge courses in the morning, and trained physical strength, dodge and other physical skills in the afternoon. At dusk, when the magic power was most active, he had to learn and practice the abilities of various spells.

And according to the old demon hunter Vesemir, such a course will last for about three to six years according to his level of mastery.

He would not be allowed to leave Kaer Morhen until he had completed all his Witcher lessons, to go on a mission alone.

And during this period, as Wayne's mentor, Vesemir almost spends more than half a year every year staying in Kyle Mohan to train him specially.

Therefore, any apprentice demon hunter who has completed the green grass trial is a precious asset for a school of demon hunters.

Not only do you need to invest a lot of money, but you also need a professional demon hunter mentor, who spends a lot of time teaching.

Since the decline of the witcher profession, there have been very few new witchers.

………………

At dusk, after completing a day of physical training, Wayne returned to Kaer Morhen's training ground.

Under the dim sunlight, Vesemir was quietly sitting cross-legged on a stone slab, seemingly meditating.

Sensing his arrival, the old witcher opened his eyes, with slightly cloudy cat pupils, looked at his body, then pointed to a stone slab on the ground opposite, and said:
"Come on, kid, let's start today's seal practice."

Wayne wiped the sweat from his brow, and obediently sat down in front of Vesemir.

However, his eyes were involuntarily attracted by the wolf-headed witcher emblem wrapped around the old witcher's hand.

Noticing his gaze, a smile appeared on the serious face of the old man.

He reached out and handed the badge to Wayne, and said with emotion:
"This is the badge of an old friend of mine. He was a powerful demon hunter. He died at the hands of a deer's head spirit because of a wrong intelligence report more than 200 years ago."

"When I found him, his flesh and blood had been eaten away by wild beasts in the forest, leaving only the equipment on his body, which was still there."

"Originally, I planned to wait for your body to be completely stable before handing it over to you. However, since you have passed all the demon hunter trials, it is time to have a badge belonging to our wolf school."

"Remember, boy, we witchers are not heroes, and never were."

"No matter what kind of battle, only being cautious enough can make us live longer."

Seeing Vesemir's expectant eyes, Wayne reached out his hand excitedly, and took the silver-white wolf school witcher badge.

The moment his finger touched the badge, the system in his mind suddenly sent a message.

Ding!The trial of the demon hunter has been completed, and the mission system is activated.
