Chapter 13

The more powerful an Elcat, the more likely it is to be chosen by a powerful hunter, and vice versa. This means that only a powerful hunter is qualified to have a powerful Elcat.

Therefore, in many cases, to discern a hunter's strength without knowing their star rating, one can observe their equipment, or another simple method is to look at the strength of the Elcat they bring.

Wenlong took advantage of this, showcasing his strength to make Bai Mao and Levi believe that Catherine was a truly powerful hunter.

Of course, Wenlong knew that this was not enough. To make them completely believe that Catherine was a powerful hunter, he had to show them something even more impressive.

"Pull out the greatsword stuck in the ground..." Behind Catherine, Wenlong gave another instruction with his tail.

Catherine did not know why Wenlong wanted her to do this, and there was no time to ask. She simply obeyed Wenlong's instructions and pulled out the greatsword stuck in the ground as he said.

In an instant, Bai Mao and Levi's expressions froze, as if they had seen a monster they had never seen before. Both stood there, dumbfounded.

Catherine extended one hand and effortlessly pulled out the Kirin greatsword stuck in the ground.

Yes, one hand, just one hand. A greatsword that an average adult male would need both hands to barely swing was pulled out by Catherine with one hand, and it seemed so effortless that it was as if it was nothing to her.

"This woman is indeed legendary in strength. Even though I already knew this, it's still quite shocking... meow!"

Even Wenlong had to admit Catherine's exceptional strength, and Levi and Bai Mao, who did not know Catherine's true capabilities, were even more shocked.

"I apologize, I didn't realize you were a legendary hunter, my lady. I am truly sorry." Levi said, stepping back respectfully.

Being able to easily lift a greatsword with one hand and having hunted a Kirin, even Levi knew that this undoubtedly met the standards of a legendary hunter.

And in front of a legendary hunter, a two-star hunter was no different from a newly initiated hunter, so Levi immediately changed his attitude and became respectful.

"We are still hunting here, please leave immediately."

Following Wenlong's instructions, Catherine continued.

"Yes, I will leave immediately, my lord. Please hunt in peace..."

Levi bowed and then retreated with Bai Mao, complaining all the while that Bai Mao was not as strong as Wenlong and that if Bai Mao had not misjudged their strength, he would not have been embarrassed.

Bai Mao could only look aggrieved and apologize, saying that he had not expected Wenlong to be so formidable and that it was not his incompetence but rather the cunning of the Elcat named Wenlong!

Seeing Bai Mao's aggrieved and defensive expression, Wenlong secretly laughed to himself.

"Bai Mao, Bai Mao, you always used to show off in the village. Now you know the pain I've endured for years, right? Meow!"

By embarrassing Bai Mao in front of his master, Wenlong felt a sense of satisfaction. However, after venting his frustration, Wenlong had to consider what to do next.

Because just now, Wenlong realized some differences between the Monster Hunter world he was in and the game's settings.

For example, in the game, using a greatsword for attacks would only involve greatsword techniques. Even if you were very strong, it would only affect the damage of the moves, and even if you were very skilled, it would only shorten the activation time. It would never involve using a greatsword with one hand.

But Catherine did it, holding a greatsword in one hand and looking very relaxed. This made Wenlong think about the possibility of a hunter using two greatswords.

"If a hunter could wield a greatsword in each hand, moving them like dual blades, what would that look like? The scene would be so beautiful, I wouldn't dare to look directly, meow..." Wenlong tried to imagine such a scene in his mind, but he thought it was too exaggerated and unlikely to be possible.

While Wenlong was thinking, Catherine had already walked over.

"Ah, Mr. Cat, those bad guys are finally gone." Seeing Bai Mao and Levi leave, Catherine finally relaxed. The tension on her face, which she had been maintaining, suddenly showed signs of fatigue.

"Yes, it's all thanks to me that those villains were scared away." Wenlong took all the credit without hesitation.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Cat. I don't know what I would have done without you." Catherine looked grateful.

"Of course, so from now on, listen to me in everything. That way, you won't be at a disadvantage, meow!" Taking advantage of Catherine's lingering fear, Wenlong pressed his point.

"Okay, I will listen to Mr. Cat from now on." Catherine nodded gratefully.

"Hmm, this woman isn't bad. Although she's a bit stupid, at least she's obedient... In that case, perhaps she really has the potential to become a legendary hunter?"

Seeing Catherine's sincere expression, Wenlong thought about the matter he had been considering...

Before he had crossed over, Wenlong had also guided many new players in the game. Many of them had significantly improved their skills after receiving his guidance, and some even became the mainstays of their hunting teams soon after.

So Wenlong was quite confident in his ability to teach new players. However, in this world, hunting was no longer a game but a matter of life and death, so he had to be cautious and could not bring a liability on hunts.

But now, Wenlong's view of Catherine had changed.

Without mentioning anything else, the ability to wield a greatsword with one hand was an extraordinary talent. If she were trained, she might really become a legendary hunter.

Another thing Wenlong liked about Catherine was that although she lacked social experience, she was relatively simple and straightforward. Working with someone like her meant no fear of being outsmarted, and since Catherine seemed to follow his every word, Wenlong felt a bit more fond of her.

"Alright, she's a bit stupid, but under my guidance, she will surely achieve something. I'll reluctantly take this woman named Catherine as my partner, meow!" Finally, Wenlong made up his mind.
