There are so many people here! Mister, is this the largest city in this world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl asked the Demon Hunter enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lann knew nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Counting Vizima right now, he had only been to two cities in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since someone called him \"Mister,\" and he unpredictably didn’t want to lose face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he pretended to know it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn’t big, the truly large one is a coastal port city, the World Capital—Novigrad. That’s where the dense population truly is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although based on casual chats with Philip, Margaret, and others, the permanent population in this \"World Capital\" was only about twenty to thirty thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Total population was just sixty to seventy thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to his hometown world, it was like a town under a county.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in this world, it was indeed a gigantic city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl exclaimed appropriately, \"A city can hold that many people!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann raised his eyebrows, it seemed that in Alia’s world, the civilization of cities wasn’t high either?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t you say you were going to the capital with your King? What’s wrong, isn’t your capital better than Vizima?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alia restlessly tried various movements on the horse, speaking indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re still on the road. I only remember Winterfell from my home, where you can’t see this many people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann nodded in understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winterfell, it sounded cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re here.\" After winding through the tangled private constructions, Lann looked up at this inconspicuous two-story building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to Lann’s stature and the outline of his heavy armor, although there were many malicious gazes along the way, no one dared to really approach him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got off the horse with Alia, patting Bopai’s muzzle casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a robust horse, it surely had a hard time with all the twists and turns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to knock on the wooden door with his studded leather gloves, Lann suddenly paused his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking down, a few grains of dust in the door gap seemed to be blown by the wind into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Roaring Bear Head Necklace on his chest suddenly vibrated and then calmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Opened a teleportation portal, yet no atmospheric tremor sound... Seems like an extra soundproof spell was cast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Integrating intelligence and making a judgment in a very short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann’s gaze became slightly serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two Royal Mage Consultants hiding a teleportation point in the slums to such a degree... Really like playing a palace intrigue drama?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure enough, one can’t expect a country’s capital not to have complex power relationships.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But fortunately, he wasn’t planning to get involved, merely collecting a debt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old wooden door opened from the inside, and a beauty hardly matching the place appeared from the crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hair color fell between burgundy and chestnut, with deep blue eyes adorning her delicate face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wore tight-fitting leather clothes suitable for action, outlining a slender and elegant figure that was not as breathtaking as Margaret’s but more graceful and upright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a cautious little deer, she stuck her head out from the crack, looking to the left and right of the alley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann looked down at her calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten seconds from now a man carrying water buckets will pass by the left corner, and a vagrant chasing a dog will pass by the right corner... if that’s what you’re looking for.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired beauty looked up in surprise and, seeing the cat eyes under the hood, shyly smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Apologies, I managed to hide this property with difficulty, please come in quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann shrugged, tied Bopai outside the door, and led Alia inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything seemed normal upon entering, the shabby interior decor matched the exterior of the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when going upstairs...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m Triss Merigold, just call me Triss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired beauty extended her hand to Lann with a smile, showing she was accustomed to being the \"icebreaker\" in social interactions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann straightforwardly took her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lann from Sintra, you... Oh crap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they were on the stairs, when Lann grabbed Triss’s hand, the Female Warlock seemed suddenly stimulated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body tensed, rolling her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking like she was about to fall on the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lann’s reflexes were quick, as Triss started losing balance, he sensed she was impacted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand that shook hers lifted, pulling the Female Warlock’s arm to let her lean on the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then hurriedly pulling Alia back two steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two stared at each other... This woman, she’s not trying to swindle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the stimulus Triss received seemed brief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Lann let go, within seconds, a blushing Triss propped herself up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at Lann below the stairs in astonishment, her long legs struggled to stand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sensation just now... exhilarating!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Triss, are you okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann cautiously asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m, I’m fine! No, nothing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stunning Female Warlock’s words were incoherent, and while getting up, she sorted her not-disarrayed clothes to cover up something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s just, just a matter of magic, no problem! Let’s head upstairs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she hurriedly led the way up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the second floor, the decor revealed the Female Warlocks’ draconic nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furniture was lavish, no matter how infrequent visitors were, fruits and drinks were in stock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slightly smaller blonde beauty than Triss lay sideways on the chaise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plunging neckline in that position revealed large swathes of white skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After surveying the room, Lann removed his hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the moment the hood’s shadow vanished from his face, every woman present except Alia inhaled lightly in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow... oh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under that face perpetually influenced by genetic seeds, even Triss’s exclamation became fragmented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood not far from Lann, now in a side-glancing posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Keira Metz, originally reclined on the sofa, came over with a flirtatious and eager smile, blushed, reaching out to Lann.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Keira Metz, you may...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before Lann could respond to the courtesy, Triss intervened between the two, suppressing Keira’s outstretched hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s Lann from Sintra, things are complicated now! Let’s skip the formalities!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she pushed Keira with one hand and gestured for Lann to sit with the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the reason was legitimate, the Demon Hunter felt this woman was a bit deliberate in pushing her companion.\u003C\u002Fp>",1056,"2026-06-06T10:40:07.941Z",1,"novelbin.me","e8db03fd2120fd6b972cade852bf71814bb8401552567c57c5b83ccc0b80e979","bear-school-astartes-chapter-32","bear-school-astartes-chapter-31",1043,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbear-school-astartes-cover.jpg"]
