The Witcher: Grinding Experience Starting as a Wolf School Witcher

Chapter 44 [The Afterglow of Meditation]

[Meditation Afterglow (Green): You have begun to experience the power of the four elements. When entering a meditative state, your mental energy recovery speed will be increased by 10%. After leaving the meditative state, you will receive a 2-hour magical buff and a 5% increase when casting spells.]

Another new talent!

Arwen made an Igni sign with his left hand, and orange flames danced at his fingertips. Judging from the color of the flames alone, it was indeed much stronger than the one he had used before.

Moreover, meditating before a battle is definitely an excellent way to adjust one's state.

It can assist in both combat and meditation, making it an overall very good talent.

He extinguished the flames on his fingers and glanced subtly at the people beside him.

Vesemir and Eskar chatted idly against the stone wall, while Aiken and the other three gradually opened their eyes. Their four cat-like eyes gleamed with a hint of shrewdness, and joy appeared in their eyes, indicating that they had all gained quite a bit.

As Vesemir approached, the group exchanged a few words about their feelings, then got up, tidied themselves up, and headed towards Kaer Morhen.

Because of transporting Old Spearhead's body, it was already afternoon when they returned to the castle.

As soon as Eskar's "Scorpion" and Vesemir's brown horse returned to the stable, they drank water incessantly by the trough, making "humming" sounds from their noses, clearly exhausted.

The remaining people also looked exhausted.

Aside from Arwen, with the added benefit of the Giant Bloodline, he seems pretty good.

Today, the Witchers were not in a hurry to celebrate, because Vesemir knew that the newly recruited Witchers needed rest, especially Alwin and Aiken, one who had just participated in a life-or-death battle with the old spearhead, and the other who was seriously injured.

After a quick meal in the kitchen, the group went to the graveyard behind the mountain to pay tribute to Brad with the head of the little mist sprite, and then went to the second floor of Kael'thas Morhen.

Vesemir took a bunch of keys from his pocket and tossed them into Paul's arms.

"The key has the room number engraved on it. Each of you four can choose a room as your own."

Paul gripped the keys in his hand, his eyes wide.

The four of them came from humble backgrounds, with Winston being the best among them, the son of a shoemaker.

Even so, we never had our own rooms; we were always crammed together.

"Paul, what are you standing there for? I can't wait any longer!"

"A room of my own, which I will fill with my spoils, just like the pterodactyl dragon head in the laboratory."

Horton and Winston looked on with anticipation.

"Wait, let Alwin and Aiken choose first. They contributed the most during the mountain trials," Paul said.

Horton and Winston realized what was happening and agreed:

"That's right, they get to choose first."

Aiken snorted and let out an unpleasant laugh.

Vesemir nodded. "Very good. Aiken has difficulty moving around, so take him to choose a room first."

"As for Alwin, there's no need for that; Ms. Veris's room is reserved for him."

"Ms. Veris?"

Alwin looked surprised.

Paul drew out his voice, making a strange sound, with an inquisitive look in his eyes.

"Young men, I should have taught you that it is very impolite to pry into other people's privacy."

Seeing that Vesemir had spoken, Paul and his three companions had no choice but to give up and turn around to find their preferred rooms.

The latter took out a separate key and handed it to Alwin.

"Go ahead, she probably left something for you."

Alwin pursed his lips and went to the second room on the left.

Insert the key and turn the lock cylinder.

"Click".

The wooden door slowly opened.

That long-unseen scent wafted towards me.

He subconsciously stomped his feet to wipe the mud off the soles of his boots before entering the room and stepping onto the red lace carpet.

Looking around, the room was spotless, its furnishings unchanged from when we parted a year and a half ago, with the mahogany table by the window...

Suddenly, he noticed a piece of parchment on the table.

Seeing this, Vesemir, who was standing at the door, slowly closed the door to prevent Paul and the others from disturbing them.

Arwin stepped forward and picked up the parchment; it was a letter.

"To the Witcher Alwin"

Kyle Mohan

Written at the Academy of Aretusa, dated June 4, 1230.

When you see this letter, you must have successfully passed the final trial and become a true Witcher. Congratulations.

I left a copy of "Common Low-Level Magic of the Four Elements" in the room as a congratulatory gift.

The ownership of this room has been returned to Kael Morhen, but some of the decorations took me a lot of effort. As you can see, I've kept some books on the bookshelf.

I spoke with Vesemir, and he said that this room would be your reward if you passed the trial.

I hope you make good use of this opportunity. Aretusa welcomes your visit.

Tissaya de Veres

Arwin ran his fingers over the paper, carefully reading the letter.

He never expected that Tissaya would give him such a big surprise.

He placed the letter back on the table and moved his gaze to the bookshelf, where neatly arranged books were displayed, including the precious set of "World History".

Arriving at the bookshelf, I ran my hand over the covers of the rows of books.

His eyes were slightly lowered, and his hand finally rested on a parchment book engraved with blue patterns.

Extract it.

Commonly Used Low-Level Magic of the Four Elements

Alwin's breathing became rapid. He took it and walked step by step to the window, then opened it.

I browsed through the table of contents.

Fire-based spells such as [Fireball] and [Fire Ring]...

Water-based spells like [Water Bullet] and [Water Arrow]...

Earth element... Air element...

Although they are all low-level magic, each system includes three to five practical spells, making them incredibly valuable.

As the sun gradually set outside the window, he put the books back on the shelf.

He rubbed his temples with his fingers; even with a dual soul, his mind still felt drowsy.

After yawning, Alwin's gaze shifted to the screen at the back of the room.

To the left of the screen is a chest for storing clothes, and inside the screen is a large wooden barrel connected to a water pipe.

"A bathtub?"

Alwin was overjoyed; he had long been disgusted by his sticky body.

Taking a relaxing bath is definitely the best choice right now.

A magic circle was engraved on the silver faucet.

Recalling the [Water Drawing Spell] that I had just learned from "Common Low-Level Magic of the Four Elements".

Extend your right hand and softly recite a spell.

Guided by spiritual power, the magic circle emitted warm, clean spring water.

Alwin then noticed a black hole directly below the bathtub, with a magic circle engraved above it to facilitate drainage after bathing.

He now understood where Tissaya was focusing her energy in this room.

It's this bathtub right in front of me.

Although it was a bit extravagant, it suited the tastes of Alwin, a southerner.

I took off my clothes, sat in the steamy bathtub, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Only now did his body finally relax completely.

Two years of arduous training have finally come to a successful conclusion.

Open the panel.

Basic meditation, Wolf School Witcher swordsmanship, herbal alchemy, signs, magic.

Those rows of skills meant he would never be idle in the future.

Alwin took a towel and covered his face.

Sigh...

There are so many things to do, and so many places I want to go.

But the most important thing now is to get some rest.
