Chapter 724: Chapter 595: The Rise of Kaer Morhen Chapter 724: Chapter 595: The Rise of Kaer Morhen Along the way, Roger occasionally encountered Demon Hunters hurrying on their way, each of whom would stop in their tracks and look at Roger with admiration when they saw him.
Roger could only feign depth, nod slightly, and then quickly walk away.
He was someone who hardly ever showed his face in Kaer Morhen, yet everyone living there was incredibly familiar with him.
All of this naturally stemmed from Henrik.
Henrik believed that the robust development of a Transcendent Force could not do without a leader with immense personal charisma, and Roger, not one to seek the limelight, naturally didn’t pay much attention to such things.
Initially, Henrik had wanted to hang his own portraits in every room of the castle of Kaer Morhen, but later on, the scandal of his freeloading incident spread like wildfire.
Although he felt he had done nothing wrong, it wasn’t exactly a good thing, and while people recognized his strength, they were willing to gossip about such juicy news.
But as a leader, Henrik’s approach was somewhat shameless.
No, it would be better to say it was without any bottom line.
Thus, he had to change targets and hung Roger’s portraits instead in the large and small rooms of Kaer Morhen.
Most outrageous was that some bedrooms had Roger’s portrait in them.
Demon Hunters were a group of vigorously energetic folk, and Roger could hardly imagine, when they engaged in peculiar activities in their rooms, his portrait hanging up high, coldly watching over everything.
At Roger’s repeated requests, Henrik removed the portraits from the bedrooms, only keeping those in the hall and certain corridors and halting the so-called statue project.
Even so, it was enough to make Roger’s face known to every person here.
Outsiders focused their attention on the shameless Henrik and the Dragonborn Amanda of Kaer Morhen, while some high-level people in Transcendent Forces knew that there was also a Fourth Tier Transcendent hidden in Kaer Morhen.
However, since Claudia rarely appeared in public view, most people had only heard of her and never seen her, and over time, some even came to disregard this fact, treating it as an exaggeration.
But inside Kaer Morhen, the newly risen Demon Hunters all knew that the most powerful Fourth Tier there wasn’t Claudia, but Roger.
Henrik had a talent for giving speeches, and under his portrayal, Roger nearly became the hope of all Demon Hunters.
The Western World has always upheld individual heroism, and in this context, coupled with Henrik’s repeated praises, Roger even felt like he was on the verge of being mythologized.
Sometimes Roger couldn’t help but wonder if the sequence of events now applied to himself was something Henrik had once prepared for himself?
And that guy’s purpose…
To increase his fame and then it would just be natural to… disperse?
Well, that really did fit his character all along.
Finally managing to extricate himself with a stiff face from some admirers, Roger arrived at the library.
It was no longer what it once was.
When Roger first came to this world, all he had was a dilapidated house on the verge of collapse, and the books on the shelves were borrowed from the lighthouse application.
Later, as his strength grew and his understanding of the Transcendent World deepened, the materials he collected also grew more abundant.
Until recently, Roger brought back a large number of Legacy Methods from the Everworld, most of which were not open to the average Demonic Hunter.
But the arrival of these people also brought a lot of Transcendent knowledge, and together with the collections of Henrik, Amanda, and others, under the integration and deduction of the Hunter Base, the information in the library had become very detailed.
The materials were categorized distinctly.
Normally, there weren’t many people here; most Demon Hunters still focused their energy on improving their combat abilities, and it was actually Hathaway’s Spirit Mediums who often came here.
These girls got along well with the Demon Hunters, using the studying of Gwent Cards as a pretext to frequently visit, and sometimes even neglected their normal training, which enraged Ingmar.
Just as he approached, Roger heard a burst of conversation, and when he entered the room, he unexpectedly discovered Hathaway and Goway huddled together studying something.
“When did those two get together?”
Roger walked over and saw that the book in Goway’s hands was filled with knowledge related to Alchemy.
“This place is a treasure trove!” Goway exclaimed.
“Pain Potions, meditation potions, and Sword Oils needed for dealing with various creatures, these can greatly enhance the survival rate and combat effectiveness of the ordinary Demon Hunters.”
“Recently, the issues from Europe have even spread here, and nowadays the Transcendent World is no longer as mysterious as it once was. For the average person, many things are now considered semi-public.”
Goway said, pointing to the things in the book, her gaze focused, and she didn’t even notice Roger’s arrival.
The situation changed dramatically, especially in the last three months.
Incidents involving the Transcendent were becoming more frequent in the real world, and the frequency also became denser. Ordinary people were almost unable to handle such incidents, and the major Transcendent Forces were already stretched thin in quelling their usual troubles.
Under such an explosive outbreak, it wouldn’t be long before the Transcendent World was revealed.
In Europe, some countries are nearly semi-public about it already.
You can even find corresponding assignments on the internet.
Out of necessity, the emergence of panic didn’t occur, and Demon Hunters and Magicians were gradually being recognized and accepted by the public.
