Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 229 - Chapter 229 Chapter 229 Attraction

Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Attraction Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Attraction On the morning of the second day, Roger opened his eyes and saw a beautiful face lying next to his pillow; following the practice of the previous night, he was absolutely certain about one thing.

There had indeed been some changes in Hathaway’s body.

Could it be the so-called second…?

“Good morning, Roger.”

Hathaway opened her eyes.

“You’re different from last time.”

“It seems my mission was quite successful,” Roger said with a toothy grin.

Hmm… it must have been more than successful.

Through in-depth exchange, Hathaway also noticed the changes in Roger.

“In such a short time, you’ve already entered the Transcendent state. That’s really amazing.”

Hathaway felt somewhat envious.

The promotion of a Spirit Medium was much more difficult than that of other professions; sometimes, the accumulation of experience and the capture of spirituality were even more important.

Besides, this profession relies too heavily on talent.

Checking the phone, it was a barrage of messages from Henrik, and Roger always had the feeling that there was something probing in this man’s words. Was it about Ingmar?

After making the call, and naturally not escaping a long complaint from Henrik, they had breakfast. Roger then went to the exchange meeting with Hathaway.

The venue for the exchange meeting was on a man-made island near the port.

The entire island was sealed off, and only qualified individuals could take a boat to reach the small island. Although not a Spirit Medium, Roger, acting as Hathaway’s assistant, boarded the ship and arrived at the island.

The whole island was shaded with green trees, and the site of the exchange meeting was in a private estate near the center of the island.

Unexpectedly, there were many participants. By the time Roger and Hathaway arrived at the estate, many seats were already taken.

The Spirit Mediums’ exchange meeting wasn’t as serious as an academic conference; there was no so-called hall or lecture room.

The whole estate had a relaxed and free atmosphere.

Those who were unaware might even find it a bit noisy and chaotic.

Groups of young men and women huddled together, some discussing loudly, others explaining specific techniques.

One individual’s application of the Spirit Whip, in particular, was an eye-opener for Roger.

It used less energy, yet the durability and power increased dramatically. This person had clearly put in a lot of effort in this area.

And he had even begun to research other weapons.

There were also discussions on enchantment techniques for Spiritual Energy Weapons and various other topics.

A lot could be gained from attending an exchange meeting like this.

“Doesn’t the Demon Hunter have similar exchanges?” Roger asked curiously.

“Yes, but before entering the Transcendent state, the exchange focuses more on the use of weapons and dealing with different monsters.”

“After reaching the Transcendent state, if one awakens the corresponding bloodline and becomes a Blood Hunter, that’s supposedly when you get the chance to attend a real exchange meeting for Demon Hunters.”

“The training methods of Demonic Hunters who have awakened special bloodlines are completely different from ordinary hunters, and appropriate exchange meetings can inspire each other.”

“Many powerful Spirit Mediums also have the opportunity to participate in such exchanges,” Hathaway explained.

“What should we do next?”

“Find a place to sit down.”

“And then, play cards.”

Roger said nonchalantly.

Hathaway’s delicate face stiffened.

“Sit down, play cards?”

“We don’t need introductions…”

Roger waved his hand.

“There are still three days left, just like you said, if we directly tell everyone that this is for divination, I’m afraid nobody will believe it.”

“Let’s get them used to it first.”

Roger found a relatively open spot and dragged a single-seater sofa in front of the table.

“Believe me, in a place that’s heavy on academic atmosphere and full of dry theoretical knowledge, Gwent Cards will definitely pique everyone’s interest.”

“Clack clack clack!”

Roger placed four decks of cards on the table.

“Don’t overthink it, your next task is just one thing, and that’s to familiarize yourself with the four factions and then focus on defeating me!”

Roger laughed heartily.

“Some people were utterly routed last night, and lost miserably indeed.”

Hathaway, having her competitive spirit successfully provoked, didn’t bother with divination and directly chose Scoia’tael, which she had used the night before, while Roger naturally stuck with Nivagard.

The two set up and quickly got into the game.

In a place where spirit mediums were communicating everywhere, the two were fully immersed in Gwent Cards, spending the entire morning unapproached, playing numerous rounds back and forth.

As Hathaway’s experience accumulated, the two had their share of wins and losses. Although the rules of Gwent Cards seemed simple, playing them involved many variations.

And from the perspective of balance, the Gwent Cards that had been modified by the Hunter’s Cabin had almost reached the limits of balance.

This was something that no matter how you looked at it, couldn’t be achieved in the games of the previous world.

Gradually, Hathaway even forgot her purpose at the exchange meeting, playing round after round. After hastily eating a few bites for lunch, she dragged Roger into battle again.

Nobody was around during the lunch break at the exchange meeting, and the two played as if no one else existed. It was then that a thin man sauntered over.

He wore a pair of thick glasses, and his face bore a somewhat stern expression. He was just wandering around, but when he came near Roger and Hathaway, he suddenly noticed the dazzling cards on the table.

“Huh?”

“Is that spiritual energy fluctuation?”

“Looks like some kind of game.”

Terry adjusted his thick glasses, “To integrate spiritual energy into the cards to create a game is truly extravagant!”

Materials capable of storing spiritual energy were very rare, and to make a deck of cards while maintaining its stability was even harder.

Noticing someone approaching, Roger said nothing; several people had come and gone to watch over the course of the morning, but most had left after a few glances.

The last time Roger had such an engrossing Gwent Card session traced back to the previous world, and now he watched as something that existed only in games was recreated in the real world.

This illusion engulfed in reality immersed Roger deeply, also triggering his card addiction.

Indeed, Gwent and Demon Hunter were a perfect match.

As one round concluded with Roger cementing his victory with a brilliant counter at the last moment and began reshuffling the decks, a cautious voice suddenly came from beside him.

“What game are you guys playing?”

Roger looked up to see the man with the thick glasses still standing by, his eyes alight with a tentative eagerness.

“Gwent Cards.”

“It’s a Spiritual Energy Game we created ourselves.”

Roger smiled and extended an invitation.

“Care for a game of Gwent?”

“Hey, that’s great.”

“My name’s Terry, let me give it a try.”

Terry rubbed his hands together eagerly.

“Let me explain the rules to you.”

Even though he had already watched from the sidelines and had a rough idea, Terry still asked patiently.

Ten minutes later, he began his first game of Gwent Cards in his life.

One game after another, an hour later, when the break was over and the number of people at the exchange meeting gradually increased, Terry had almost forgotten why he had come there in the first place.

All he had in mind were unit cards, special cards, Weather Cards and all sorts of complex combinations.

“You guys are geniuses!”

An enthusiastic Terry stood up and took out his phone from his pocket.

“This is the best game in the world, I feel my spiritual energy has become more active.”

“I need to tell everyone, everyone must have a copy of Gwent Cards!”
