Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 196: Red Demon

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This sword obviously had an extraordinary origin. Right after Robert took out the sword, Heath noticed that the expressions of the surrounding generals were somewhat strange.

Robert smiled and said, “It’s rare to meet a Wizard who also cultivates swordsmanship like me. I don’t have any gifts for you, so I’ll give you a handy weapon.”

Baxter, who was beside him, reminded him, “Wizard Heath, this Red Demon is a treasure that has been following Robert’s lead for many years.”

“Red Demon?” Heath was shocked

He had learned about this sword from the soul fragments he had extracted. It was a cross sword that was very famous in the Bloody Battlefield and even in the Tower of Order.

It was said that the raw material used to forge it was part of the body of the Flame Demon Everett. It had been forged by the most outstanding Dwarven craftsman in the West Coast, and finally, it was personally enchanted by a Stigmata Wizard, it was a rather high-level Wizard tool.

Heath immediately said, “I appreciate your kindness, but I’ll pass.”

The Red Demon itself was custom-made for Robert by the Stigmata Wizard, and it had followed Robert in battle for many years. It was already a type of personal keepsake.

Robert smiled and said, “There’s no need to worry too much. No matter how high-level a Wizard tool is, it’s still just an item. Only by giving it to the right person can it show its true value. Now, it’s no longer of much help to me.”

Heath was still a little hesitant. “This...”

Robert put on a straight face and said, “Sir, are you preparing to humiliate me, Robert?”

Seeing that, Heath could not say anything else.

After taking over Red Demon, the moment he came into contact with it, Heath immediately felt a surge of elemental fluctuations coming from above. There was also a burning and violent power mixed within, even if it was just held in his hand... It was as if his blood was on fire.

Robert asked, “How is it? Do you like it?”

Heath could not put it down and said, “I’ve never received such a surprising gift!”

Ever since Black Dragon was broken, he did not have any weapons that he could bear any more. Although he had changed many crossguard swords over the years and even tried to forge a Wizard tool himself, he had never been able to find a suitable one.

Now that the Red Demon had arrived, it was really suitable.

However, at this moment, a cloud of black gas suddenly surged from the blade and quickly attacked Heath.

He quickly let go of the hilt and held it with the Wizard’s Hand. However, even so, the cloud of black gas could still spread along the Wizard’s Hand. He had no choice but to completely let go of the restriction on the blade and let it fall straight to the ground.

Heath looked at the black gas and said with a strange expression, “This is... a Wraith?”

From the black gas, one could clearly feel an extremely heavy resentment, and it was the same feeling as the Wraith he had seen on the battlefield.

Robert nodded and said, “Everett.”

“Since you know about the Red Demon, you should also know that the Red Demon is made from Everett’s body tissue. It contains an extremely heavy component of the Wraith.”

Heath was puzzled. “It’s not purified?”

Robert shook his head. “It can’t be purified.”

Heath frowned.

Heath had seen the strength of the Wraith of Everett before. After being exposed to this kind of thing for a long time, even a Wizard could not guarantee that he would not be contaminated.

If he wanted to use it, he would probably have to completely mutate his soul.

However, at this moment, Robert said, “Don’t worry. If you were an ordinary Wizard, you would definitely be devoured by the Red Demon. However, apart from that, you are also a Grand Knight!”

Heath raised his eyebrows. “Grand Knight?”

Robert nodded. “The power of a Grand Knight can neutralize the resentment of Wraiths. I’ll explain it to you in detail another day.”

“Today is a banquet. It’s a time to enjoy.”

After that, everyone chatted about some random things. Robert gave Heath two gifts.

One was the Water of Immortality of the Elf clan. This was extracted from the Immortal Spring of the Elf clan. It was a specialty of the Elf clan. As its name suggested, it was used to increase vitality.

Heath’s vitality was still a little short of the peak of the Wizard level. With this Water of Immortality, he could just rise to the peak.

The other gift was a change in Heath’s position.

He was transferred from the frontline to the ‘Round Table Conference’. This was probably a military department similar to the strategic staff department. It mainly participated in military deployment and basically did not need to go to the front line.

This was good news. After all, being far from the frontline meant being far away from the risk.

One had to know that the death rate on the Bloody Battlefield was extremely high.

Take the battlefield that day as an example. In just a few short hours, hundreds of warriors had died in battle, and the entire Bloody Fortress only had a total of over 30,000 people. From this, one could see the terrifying casualty rate.

The battle that day could be considered light in the Bloody Fortress. The wave of Wraiths that had attacked did not even have a single high-ranked species. The truly terrifying impact... In the Bloody Battlefield, there were already more than one or two official-level Wizards who had died on the frontlines.

There was only one substitute doll, so it was best not to use it if possible.

It was worth mentioning that when Robert announced that Heath would be transferred to the Round Table, the generals present had their doubts. They were not deliberately targeting Heath, but was simply because this department was too important.

However, after Robert recounted Heath’s previous performance in the human world’s battlefield, this doubt also disappeared.

At this time, everyone knew that this young man in front of them not only had the strength of an official Wizard and a Grand Knight, but also had extremely high talent and attainments in the military. He was truly an exceptional talent.

Talent was welcomed everywhere, especially in Robert, the commander who valued talent like his life.

Anyone could see Robert’s admiration for Heath. In time, one could foresee the rise of a new upstart in the Wizard World.

...

After the banquet.

“Then it’s settled. Wizard Heath, after I’m done with my work, I’ll look for you to discuss the mysteries of ice magic.”

“Of course.”

Wizard Baxter and Heath left the banquet hall while chatting and laughing.

During the banquet, both parties briefly exchanged some magic experience. Baxter was surprised to find that Heath’s grasp of basic knowledge was unexpectedly firm. Originally, it was just a casual exchange of ice magic with him, but now, he really had the intention to do this.

Thus, after the banquet ended, both parties agreed to visit another day to discuss ice magic.

After sending Baxter into the carriage, Heath also walked towards his own carriage.

Here, his three Apprentices, Martha and the other two, had already been waiting for him. When they saw Heath coming over, the three of them immediately went up to him, carrying a cane and a coat. They looked like they were ready to be called.

“Lord Heath, let me help you with your cane.”

“Wizard Heath, it’s a bit cold outside. Let me put on a cloak for you.”

“Wizard Heath...”

In fact, Martha and Roval were both purebloods from the Wizard family. When they found out that they had been assigned by their family to be a muggle’s follower, they were somewhat reluctant. Their attitude towards Heath was only superficial respect.

However, after this banquet, the three Apprentices only had respect for Heath.

The Bloody Fortress Commander, Wizard Robert, personally received him, even gave him a sword, Red Demon, and the Round Table. Even a fool could tell that Heath was very popular.

“Wizard Heath!”

Just as Heath was about to board the carriage, a shout came from behind.

He turned around and saw a Knight running from behind.

The Knight came to Heath, bowed, and said, “Hello, Wizard Heath. I’m a Knight of the Partridge family. Our Young Master is in the carriage over there. He wants to invite you to meet him.”

Partridge?

Heath was puzzled. “What’s the matter?”

The Knight said, “I’m not sure. I’m just here to deliver a message from the Young Master.”

Heath thought for a moment and said, “Okay.”

Partridge was one of the most prestigious Wizard families in the West Coast. He was also one of the four most important families in the Tower of Order. He had to give him some face.

Following the Knight, Heath came to the lawn next to it. There was a gorgeous carriage parked there.

The carriage did not look big, but it was surprisingly spacious inside. There were sofas, coffee tables, and other things. There was even a pool not far away.

At this time, there were two young and beautiful girls playing in the pool. A young man in his twenties was sitting on the sofa by the pool, holding some grapes and other fruits to feed to the girls in the pool.

After carefully observing Heath, he realized that the two girls had fish-like parotid glands on their bodies. They were obviously two Lake Banshees.

‘What a high-end spatial spell.’

Looking around the carriage, Heath was a little surprised. Although he basically knew the principle of this carriage’s spell, the materials needed to make such an exquisite arrangement were not to be underestimated.

“Young Master, Wizard Heath is here.” The Knight stepped forward and bowed.

The man threw the food in his hand into the pool, then left the sofa and walked towards Heath.

He warmly greeted, “Wizard Heath, would it be inconvenient for you to suddenly be disturbed?”

Heath shook his head and said, “Young Master Winston, you are too kind.”

Heath had met this young man at the banquet. His name was Winston Partridge, a pureblood of the Partridge family, and his identity was very valuable.

After a pause, Heath asked while keeping a distance, “May I know why you are looking for me, Young Master Partridge?”

Heath had heard about the Partridge family when he was in Shadow Tower. The reputation of his family was not very good, so it was better not to have fewer dealings with them if it was not necessary.

Partridge said, “Sit, let’s sit and talk.”

Heath and he sat on the sofa.

Then, a servant brought tea and drinks. He drank the Dragon Blood Wine and ate the Heart of the Forest, which was the size of a radish. They were all extremely expensive ingredients in the Wizard World, the kind that cost thousands of Magic Stones per unit.

After eating something symbolically, Partridge immediately explained the purpose of his visit.

He went straight to the point. “It’s like this. This time, I invited Wizard Heath over because I want to discuss something with you, Wizard Heath....”
