Demon Hunter and His Hut

Chapter 16 Making things difficult

"The Witcher and His Cabin ()"

It's okay to be idle, and Roger really didn't want to continue tasting the watered beer in the tavern, so he nodded.

"Pearl divers attack near the pier?" he asked rhetorically.

"Have you heard all about it?"

"There should be no place where news spreads faster than a tavern."

"Let's go, let's talk as we go."

Geralt stood up.

"Count me in, okay?"

A cautious voice came from beside him, Roger turned his head, and Ashe took a deep breath.

"I'm just curious, don't worry, I will never interfere with your mission, as long as you ask, I can leave at any time."

"Also, I promise that what I see will never appear in poetry without your permission."

Geralt frowned. Ashe was just an ordinary girl and had no power to protect herself. He wanted to refuse directly, but he hesitated and looked at Roger.

"Go together, just stay by my side, and I promise nothing will hurt you."

Roger spoke.

"Be careful, my dear silly girl."

Dandelion said slowly, "A lot of times the dangers come from around us, and it's never monsters that hurt women the most."

"It's a man."

As he spoke, his half-smiling eyes flicked between Roger and Ashe.

From his ambiguous eyes, Ashe naturally guessed the meaning of her old friend's words. She blushed and changed the subject in a panic.

"What about you, don't you want to go together?" As soon as the words came out, she deeply regretted that her participation would bring a lot of trouble to the two of Roger, if Dandelion was added.

After all, this is not an outing, and you will face monster attacks at any time.

"I'll forget it, who knows if I will take a boat, you should know how bad I am from seasickness."

"In addition, I have to take a good rest. Later, there will be... ahem, anyway, you go." Dandelion waved his hand.

So the three got up and left the tavern.

"Thank you, Roger."

After a little behind, Ashe walked up to Roger and whispered thanks, "Well... besides, Dandelion..."

As soon as her face turned red, Ashe realized at this moment that it was fine if she didn't explain, but the more she explained, the more she wanted to hide it.

She admitted that the identity and experience of the witcher fascinated a poetess like her, and more importantly, the temperament of Roger was also very comfortable.

The mystery bestowed by his identity, coupled with his good appearance and elegant conversation, made Roger fatally attractive in his eyes.

To be honest, he was obviously more interested in Geralt at first, after all, in Dandelion's poems, Geralt appeared more often and seemed more real.

In addition, she also learned a lot of stories between Geralt and Yennefer from the guy with the big mouth.

It has to be said that sadomasochism that happens to others is the easiest thing to excite women.

But after contact, all her attention was drawn to Roger.

In addition, the woman's sensitivity allowed her to sense that Geralt and Dandelion had a special respect for Roger.

The three of them soon came to the vicinity of the pier, and saw the security guards set up from a distance. In addition, they also found a familiar figure.

Zelister.

No wonder, he is the person in charge of the pearl fishing industry, so he should be here.

"Miss Davin, have you changed your mind?"

Zelister shouted loudly from afar.

"No, she's just taking a look with us." Geralt stepped forward, "I have accepted the commission from the Duke to investigate what happened here."

"I received the notice, but the letter said you were the only one." Zelister frowned.

"They are my companions," Geralt said firmly.

"He can, but she can't." Zelister pointed to Ashe, "Demon hunter, the Duke paid you to solve your troubles,

It's not just to use this place as a place to hunt for women! "

"In fact, I always thought that we can solve these things by ourselves, and there is no need to waste any coins on people like you!"

"This is just an investigation. I am the one who has accepted the commission. How to solve it is my business. You just need to wait for the result." The contempt in Zelister's eyes made Geralt slightly annoyed.

"I... I just come here with them, you go, I'll wait outside, or go back to the tavern first."

Ashe spoke.

At this moment, a deep voice came from not far behind Zelister.

"Is it Geralt, why don't you come in and have a look?"

Everyone turned around, and a fat man walked out surrounded by several guards.

He is not tall, has sharp eyes, and deep nasolabial folds on his face, which makes him look very serious when he is stern.

"My lord duke!"

It was the Duke of Agroval who appeared here, the actual owner of Cape Brimwood.

"My lord, we had a little argument."

Speaking of which, Zelister narrated what happened.

"That's right."

The Duke narrowed his eyes, "It's your choice how to complete the commission, I just need to wait for the result, I understand that right?"

Geralt nodded.

"You have the right to choose how to perform tasks, but this is my place, and I have the right to decide who can go in and who can't!"

The Duke snorted coldly, "So now, demon hunter, I think you shouldn't waste my time on this issue."

Geralt took a deep breath.

In the past, Dandelion often went in and out with him when performing commissioned tasks. In fact, the client didn't care much about such things.

And just now, if Zelister hadn't deliberately provoked Geralt with an insulting tone, he would actually be willing to cooperate with the other party's request.

There is no need to make the scene so rigid.

"You guys go, I'll go back to the hotel by myself." Ashe said again, she looked at Roger full of apology.

Roger frowned, he could feel that the Duke seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for Geralt.

"That is your companion, he can be with you." The Duke said suddenly.

"As for Miss Ashe, I can personally..."

"No need." Roger interrupted the Duke, and then took Ashe's arm, "I will send her back."

"Aren't you going?" The Duke frowned, "You should also be a witcher from your attire, and the two of you will be more confident together."

"But you only paid me alone." Geralt snorted coldly.

"That's because I thought the two of you would be together. Hell, do you think you're worth that much by yourself?"

As he spoke he glanced at Roger.

"Tell me how much you want."

Roger smiled, but before he could answer, Dandelion's familiar voice came from behind him.

"My lord, I don't think anyone in this world can make Roger do things for him."

"Um……"

"If there is, it should be from a beautiful lady calling from the bed."
