Don’t let your hand slip.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geralt was fastening the saddle buckle, teasing lightly without expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If this thing gets muddy, you’d be working for nothing for two months.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lambert wasn’t someone who gets flustered over money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s worked for high-ranking nobles and big merchants, and has seen them consume his annual income in one meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sight was even more astonishing than this silk rune cloth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before those employers, he remains cheeky and satirical, full of sarcasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If an employer dared to glare at him, he’d spread his hands and say ’Find someone better.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What truly astonished him now was: This was an honest Demon Hunter, earning assets through skill without doing dirty work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never thought that a Demon Hunter living with such ’boring moral beliefs’ could have this kind of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Boring moral beliefs,’ this was the common personality Vesemir cultivated for their Wolf School.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lambert always despised this, so he often clashed with Vesemir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, he’s indeed taught by Vesemir; he can’t escape this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite disdain toward this, when something happens on the road, he’ll grumble and intervene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His life is quite awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Lann showed him another possibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ciri watched with shining eyes as the Qilin gradually donned its harness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a noble and untamed wild creature to a majestic and mysterious dignified steed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sintra is a country famous for valuing martial prowess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether in the former or latter state, the Qilin’s appearance greatly delighted this Princess of Sintra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this was Lann’s steed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ciri cautiously approached, reaching out; looks like she wanted to touch the Qilin’s mane and scale armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before she could touch the Qilin’s hoof, which still had azure electric currents flickering, Lann reached out and stopped her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not now, Ciri.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With fingers tapping her forehead, he nudged her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re still too young; the Qilin can’t even notice you.

I didn’t mean it, pal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geralt explained to the Qilin in a calm tone, sounding practiced, as if he’s used to talking to ’Roach’ like this too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann turned the Qilin’s head back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ll see each other in Gos Velen then, Geralt.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, see you in Gos Velen, Lann.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geralt also bid farewell; he already knew the Grandmaster arrangement within his school, and didn’t mind the arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m leaving too, meow!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lann’s arms, Rong Buqiu stood up, waving at the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others have grown fond of this diligent and self-disciplined kitty and responded warmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ciri, next time we meet, I’ll have completely mastered the Light Body Skill, meow! Don’t fall behind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only is Rong Buqiu self-disciplined, but it also likes taking Ciri along, which Geralt and Vesemir are pleased to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this greatly stirred Ciri’s competitiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her grandmother is Sintra’s Lioness, and Ciri inherited that fiery spirit unwilling to lose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hear me, Rong Buqiu! I’ll improve too; don’t talk as if you’ve left me behind already!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, this indomitable spirit manifested well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann nodded slightly in farewell to the people sending off, graceful and assured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then lightly tugged at the Qilin’s mane, headed for the fortress gates of Ker Morhan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-----------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Belengar leading the way and accommodating his pace, Qilin, though carrying a rider, couldn’t unleash full speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet its efficiency was several times faster than when they came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally a month-long journey, thanks to Qilin ignoring terrain by crossing rivers and hills directly, took only two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, Lann didn’t return to Gos Velen, where Airetusa is, but reached Black Seagull Island on Vizima Lake before the Chaos Magic Power tide arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Meow... Meow!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Buqiu, rare in principle, removed its armor in the non-rest state outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wobbled down shakily from Qilin’s back, short legs trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lann, how about we... go slower next time, meow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though fast, Qilin’s turbulence would likely bounce someone with poor constitution to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Qilin’s Ancient Dragon physique could indeed cross rivers and traverse mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for those on its back, every gallop was akin to crashing into Ancient Dragon flesh and organs swaying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is why Lann has never thought of experiencing \"Lightning Flash\" on Qilin’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann held Rong Buqiu’s little paw, placing it on the ground, then dismounted with a pale face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann grimaced, looking at the Qilin pretending oblivious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This creature seemed to have grown wild... Later, it’s definitely being kicked to the Golden Lion for education!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lady of the Lake was not on Black Seagull Island, and there seem to be more tour boats on Vizima Lake than usual besides the regular ferries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This lake, located near the Temerian Capital, with locals often looking at it, surrounded by stinking and treacherous marshes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Lann never saw too many cruise ships on Vizima Lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, predicting navigational developments on Vizima Lake with ’normal’ logic, Lann wasn’t optimistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, numerous small tour boats drift among lotus and lilies on the lake, carrying turbaned madams, fanning maidens, lute-holding minstrels, and handsome knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if Vizima Lake had truly become a charming and classy tourist destination.\u003C\u002Fp>",974,"2026-06-06T10:40:27.274Z",1,"novelbin.me","d6cc4f58970ff70fda615d3ab8c3e054c23bb95d9226f28f25dd5a879b0a0753","bear-school-astartes-chapter-882","bear-school-astartes-chapter-881",1043,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbear-school-astartes-cover.jpg"]
