Demon Hunter and His Cabin-Chapter 108 - Cultivation
Chapter 108: Chapter 108 Cultivation
Sheathing his sword, and wiping the sweat from his face, Roger revealed a satisfied smile.
Night Cat Swordsmanship LV3: You have grasped the essence of swordsmanship and gleaned a hint of the Cat Fraction’s agility. Regardless of the swordsmanship you employ, your footwork and moves will be correspondingly enhanced.
Trial Swordsmanship LV1: The main muscles of your body have been fully unleashed, and the powerful feedback from your organs enables you to increase your physical strength at a faster rate.
After Night Cat Swordsmanship reached level 3, aside from the previous Flash Strike, Roger also mastered another deadly technique.
Light Dance!
Through high-speed rotation and utilizing the steps beneath his feet, after three turns to gather force, the energy accumulated inside his body is unleashed in a burst.
The force of this strike is spiral-shaped, and upon hitting the enemy, it creates a terrible wound radius.
According to Roger’s estimation, if this strike were to hit an ordinary person, it could likely create a wound as thick as a forearm!
A normal person hit by this attack would basically have no chance of surviving.
After reaching level 3 in Night Cat Swordsmanship, another sword technique appeared in the Cultivation Manual.
It was not an extension of the Cat Fraction, this time the swordsmanship he was practicing originated from Bear Fraction.
Black Bear Swordsmanship.
Unlike the agile swordsmanship of the Cat Fraction, the attacks of the Bear Fraction are more substantial, and they require greater strength.
Roger practiced a bit and found that the Bear Fraction’s swordsmanship puts more emphasis on momentum, not only in the techniques but also in the aura of the practitioner.
The different Factions of Demon Hunters emphasize different aspects: the agility of the Cat, the strangeness of the Snake, the solidity of the Bear, the cunning of the Wolf, and so forth with the Griffin.
The attack methods he now possessed should be considered more basic, he was just unclear about what kind of swordsmanship he would learn after passing through the trials.
After a brief tidy up, Roger returned to town, bought some things, and just as he was about to head back to the Hunter’s Cabin to continue practicing, he unexpectedly received a call from Henrik.
“Did you find the thing?”
Roger asked eagerly, feeling incredibly addicted to the rapid enhancement of his own strength.
These past days he had nearly ignored everything else, becoming a machine that lived and ate solely within the confines of the Hunter’s Cabin.
“We’ve got some leads. The thing you want has to be fresh. I estimate that in the next few days, we should be able to deliver it.”
“I’m not calling about that. I’m calling about that swamp creature you mentioned last time.”
“Oh?”
Roger’s interest was immediately piqued.
While submitting the report for the Crystal Lake incident, Roger also told Henrik about his encounter with Betty and others in the depths of the swamp.
Involving souls and Voodoo Skill, as well as Betty’s invitation to Amanda, Roger felt it was necessary to ask Henrik’s opinion.
Upon hearing the news, Henrik didn’t reply to him directly but told Roger that he needed to report it.
The last time, the Hannam he had killed had brought some complications; this time, as the matter was more extensive, Henrik couldn’t make a decision lightly.
It wasn’t something that could be clarified over the phone, so the two arranged to meet in person.
After delivering the items he had in hand to the Hunter’s Cabin, eating something, and practicing for a while, Roger headed straight to the meeting place.
A café.
Recently, aside from studying and training, he was also keeping an eye on the news from Bordeaux City.
Adding a slot to the Hunter’s Cabin, before heading to Bordeaux, Roger needed to find a place where he could assimilate the Hunter’s Cabin in advance.
This time he wasn’t searching blindly as he had a lot of information about Bordeaux City from Henrik.
He focused on those houses that had been involved in supernatural occurrences. The chances of success in such places were comparatively higher.
However, so far, he had yet to find a house that he liked.
“Murder House, Apartment 404 at Lester Apartments, the former residence of the Skin Peelers, oh… and even a farm.”
The information gathered looked sensational, but it was unclear if any of the houses met Roger’s requirements.
While sipping coffee, Roger flipped through the material in his hands, planning to take a trip to Bordeaux City once the Second Tier was complete.
He also intended to investigate the place Anna had mentioned in passing.

Roger had already searched online for a map, and nowhere in Bordeaux City was there a street named Narcissus Street.
However, considering Anna had been dead for quite some time, that street might date back many years.
If that were the case, it would probably be quite troublesome to look into.
“Hopefully, Anna can remember more information.”
Just then, Henrik and Peter pushed the door and entered.
Henrik still sported his unkempt appearance, while the meticulous Peter followed behind him.
The two had completely opposite personalities and styles; it was a wonder how many conflicts they’d stir up when on a mission together.
Roger noticed that Henrik had been looking quite resentful lately; could it be… sexual frustration?
The coffee shop wasn’t very crowded at the time, and their seating was relatively secluded, so naturally, there was no need to worry about being overheard.
“I went back and did some research. That mysterious ceremony you mentioned is part of a large-scale witchcraft ritual. It’s a kind of taboo that hasn’t been seen in many years,” Henrik began bluntly.
“Voodoo Skill is a type of Black Witchcraft. In the world of Spellcasters, they don’t hold high status and aren’t even recognized by the mainstream,” Peter added.
“However, due to historical reasons, there’s a relatively large black population in the state, which has allowed the Voodoo culture to thrive here.”
“Even many ordinary people have had some degree of contact with Voodoo.”
“And this also makes it easier for them to attract followers.”
“What are we planning to do next?” Roger asked.
“Things have been really unstable lately, with those Spellcasters causing a ruckus about splitting away, and the Blood Descendant families at the top aren’t stepping up to speak for us!” Henrik seemed quite disgruntled, “Forget it, in their eyes, we’re just cannon fodder anyway.”
Peter gently tapped on the table without making a sound.
“What are you tapping for?”
Henrik’s resentment suddenly erupted.
“Your teacher is really petty, saying she’s worried I’ll be a bad influence. I think she’s just upset because I didn’t visit her home that one time…”
“I’ll be sure to pass that message on to the teacher.”
The next second, Henrik clammed up like a duck whose throat had been gripped.
“Forget it, let’s get back to the matter at hand,” he said helplessly, pursing his lips.
If he had known how formidable that woman could become, he would have gone there in the past, even if it meant going against his own will!
“Back to business.”
“I’ve decided to investigate that gathering place in Swamp Town.”
He glanced at Roger, “Join us!”
