The Witch Hunter System

”Aunty… ” Linette ’s furrowed her brows, and memories of their once-loving aunty surfaced in her mind before she sighed, ”Let ’s not assume things. ”

”We should just worry about getting out of this place alive first. Then, we ’ll look for the specialist healer that recently achieved her High Awakening to see if she can treat your condition. Everything else comes after. ”

”Mm. I will listen to you, sister. ”

Lillias obediently nodded before lowering her head in low spirits.

Her inability to wield magic since birth has always been a source of worry and disgrace for members of the Delaroa Household, a noble household with multiple High Witches.

She was but a mere mortal without her magic.

If not for the problem of too much cumulation of mana in her body, which put her in life-threatening situations rather than extending her life, people would have long suspected she was a child of another household.

Ding!

Shortly after choosing his reward, Vaan felt the lump of earth-attribute refined mana divide into minuscule particles and spread across his skin.

Vaan frowned slightly at the sensation of ants crawling across his skin and prickling his pores like needles, but he did not let it interrupt his movement as he continued to take the lead.

Swish, swish~!

With a quick step, Vaan closed the distance on another two hellhounds and drew an arc of red light with his twin fang daggers, slicing their necks at uncanny angles before he did a roll and lept back on his feet to continue the lead.

”All these hellhounds would have fetched a good price if we sold them at a city, ” Captain Rhys sighed at the number of bodies left behind. ”Whatever, it can ’t be helped. Life is more important. ”

”Money is only good when you are alive to spend, ” Vaan casually remarked, but in truth, he was reminding them not to be greedy.

He did not want the escort group to become greedy for wealth that they lose sight of life and slow everyone down.

Awrooo!

Vaan gripped his twin fang daggers, ready to slay the incoming group of hellhounds ahead, when the sudden howl caused them to back off, ultimately saving their lives from the grim reaper that is him.
