Barney Clark, the son of the Duke of Fort Swallow, appeared on the steps of Duron Street number 111.
The other party didn’t come down but instead nodded at Jason, a gesture that served as a greeting.
Jason’s understanding of the Duke’s son was limited to their brief encounter at the embassy that night.
It was all arranged by the old butler Reed.
The Duke’s daughter suffered backlash from a Ritual Summoning, and the origins of the Ritual Summoning method were still under investigation.
The Butler of Fort Swallow had already set off to return to Fort Swallow to report all that had transpired at Hans Port to the Duke of Fort Swallow.
Simply put, the old butler Reed doubted the sincerity of Fort Swallow’s alliance through marriage.
Because, from the signs at this moment, the start of the rumors traced back to the Duke of Fort Swallow’s daughter.
Whether it be physical or psychological.
“Starting from tomorrow, I will teach you some swordsmanship, martial arts, and marksmanship,” Jason said.
“They are all from the Griffin school and can effectively improve your physical conditioning.”
“As for the Griffin Body Refinement Technique…”
“When your fundamentals reach a certain level, let’s give it a try first. If it doesn’t work, I’ll help you find a more suitable core secret technique!”
Originally, he had hoped to train his cousin after some time had passed.
He wished his cousin could have a longer time of peace and happiness.
But his old adversary had already made a move, and judging by his understanding of the opponent, once the opponent had made a move, they wouldn’t stop unless one party was completely dead.
Core secret technique!
Upon hearing this term, Jason instinctively thought of the Night Watcher’s “Protection Against Evil”.
From the information he received, “Protection Against Evil” should be the core skill of the Night Watcher profession.
At least, for now, it was.
Because, he didn’t know what changes would occur once the professional level advanced.
Thinking about this, Jason thought of the Night Watcher’s advanced profession, ‘Nightless City Watcher’.
Looking at ‘Nightless City Watcher’, which just needed one more monster trait to complete all prerequisite conditions, Jason couldn’t help but ask, “Gerard, do you know about the Kababa beast and the Rondo beast?”
“Kababa beast is a short and skinny creature, similar to a monkey. They are agile, with sharp teeth and good at hiding. However, a flintlock gun can deal effective damage to them.”
“The Rondo beast is much more powerful!”
“Not only can it become invisible in the wind, creating wind blades, but it can also manipulate the undead. Especially the adult Rondos, the number of undead they can control skyrockets, and they can even create storms, making them extremely troublesome. For a relatively long period in ancient times, people regarded it as the Reaper of storms―there are still quite a few small groups in Hans Port that worship and offer sacrifices to it.”
“To deal with a Rondo, at least a large-scale Blair Exorcism Technique is required.”
“And this requires the cooperation of thirty people, making it extremely difficult to accomplish.”
“Jason, if you encounter a Rondo, remember to temporarily avoid it and inform me. I’ll help you deal with it.”
Without any request for a reason, upon hearing Jason’s question, Gerard immediately answered and then affectionately cautioned Jason.
Jason slightly nodded.
His eyes, however, were on the text in front of him.
[Night Watcher advancement to ‘Nightless City Watcher’ in progress…]
[Night Watcher induction (complete)]
[Protection Against Evil (Proficient) (complete)]
[Hunt ten different monsters and know their traits: 10/10 (complete)]
[3 night battles (complete)]
[Requirements met. Would you like to spend 10 points of satiety and 1 point of Excitement of Feast to advance from Night Watcher? Yes/No]
Jason did not choose to advance for the time being.
He prepared to find a quiet place late at night to complete the advancement.
As for the ring, Jason took the ring off his index finger and handed it to Gerard.
“You didn’t use the ‘Protector’s Ring’?”
Gerard was taken aback.
From the information he received, his cousin had been subjected to explosions, burning, and gunfire. In his mind, the ‘Protector’s Ring’ should have been consumed already.
“I’m used to doing things my way.”
“It’s more suitable for you.”
Gerard looked straight into the eyes of his cousin, seeing the tranquility in those eyes, he couldn’t help but sigh.
“I’m your older cousin,” Gerard said.
“You’ve given me plenty,” Jason laughed lightly, his gaze not wavering at all.
Steadfast and stubborn.
