Witcher's Atelier

She is a happy thirteen-year-old girl with a loving father, a well-known honest businessman, and a gentle and kind mother, a simple and honest housewife.

This trip to Vergen is her first time leaving Adkalai, and she asked her parents for permission after a long time.

Different from the hustle and bustle of the city, the green scenery outside the window is never boring, and her bright eyes are full of longing for the world.

…

He is a happy thirty-year-old man. He has a loyal wife, a daughter who loves him, and a good financial condition as a traveling merchant.

This trip to Vergen is the end of the war. It was his first visit since then. He believed that the market in Vergen had long been looking forward to Kaedwen beer or Ban'ard's magic items.

His daughter's company brought unexpected fun, with childish talk and laughter along the way.

…

In the evening, dark clouds covered the setting sun, and the lead-gray color covered the desolate wilderness created by the war.

The horses on the road moved forward at a constant speed, walking briskly past the bandits and victims on the roadside.

The bandit just watched the witcher and alchemist silently, and the girl just uttered a half-choked cry for help when she was kicked in the back by the bandit.

"Don't worry, they have prey, and they won't come to provoke two fully armed people again." Lambert said faintly.

"…………. "

The witcher and the boy continued to move forward. What happened on the roadside had nothing to do with them..., but the glance they passed by replayed repeatedly in Victor's mind.

He was big, dirty, bald, and had yellow and black teeth.

He pulled the girl out of the car...

He ripped off the daughter's clothes in front of a father...

The girl was even just a little girl...

He said: It's time for you to see a real man!

────

Monster! You deserve to die!

Victor suddenly pulled the reins and growled: "Lambert!"

Jumping off the horse, the boy drew the steel sword behind him and stepped forward.

The witcher realized what happened almost at the same time as the boy pulled the reins. He sighed and pulled the reins with his left hand, causing the horse to stand up and make a big turn. With his right hand, he used the Axis seal to control the restless horse: "I'll take three and you take one. The crossbow is mine. "

With his legs clamped together, Lambert rode past Victor and charged forward.

Such a big commotion naturally alarmed the four bandits who were committing violence.

Facing the unstoppable speed of the horse, the two closer bandits hurriedly picked up their axes and moved to the sides of the horse, trying to attack the witcher from the side.

Unexpectedly, Lambert controlled the horse to speed up again, and in the instant he passed by, he quickly drew out his steel sword and chopped left and right. The blade swept across their necks with the momentum, and two heads flew into the sky, and the headless corpses were bleeding like fountains.

The horse continued to rush towards the third person holding a crossbow. He hastily aimed and shot, but the crossbow arrow was blocked by the witcher with a Quen seal. Seeing the horse rushing straight up, he threw down the crossbow in fear and turned around and ran.

It's a pity that he didn't run as fast as the third person holding a crossbow. The horse was fast, and Lambert cut his spine from behind, causing him to fall to the ground.

Then he turned his horse and trampled past him.

…

While Lambert was killing people, Victor had a small accident.

The boy walked towards the "real man" with hatred in his heart. The distance between them quickly narrowed, close enough to see the panic on his ugly face and the random slashing without any rules.

If he used an axe, it might be more difficult. Victor thought that this unruly action was simply suicide. The steel sword in his hand stabbed quickly, dragging his wrist accurately so that his sword fell to the ground. The pain and terror made him fall to the ground.

Next, just take another step forward and poke the ground!

But at this moment, "Kill him!" A voice suddenly echoed in his mind!

The voice was so clear that it startled Victor.

"Don't hesitate, kill him now!"

"Hurry! Ignore his pleas for mercy, poke it!"

"He is a monster, kill him!"

"Don't show mercy! Do it! "

"Poke it down! We will..."

The echoes were layered, some clear and some vague, but all shouting to kill! Victor felt dizzy.

...

When Lambert rode back on his horse, he saw the bandit lying on the ground, shouting "Mercy! Have mercy on me!" But Victor stood there, looking dazed and confused, not knowing what he was thinking.

In this situation, the witcher naturally thought that Victor was soft-hearted, and it was normal for the boy to hesitate about his first murder.

After the last bandit shouted a few desperate mercy shouts, he was surprised to find that Victor really stopped, and then when he saw the boy's bewildered expression, he realized that this might be an opportunity, and suddenly pulled out the dagger in his arms and attacked.

He moved quickly and his goal was clear. Seeing that the dagger only needed a few centimeters to pierce the boy deeply 's eyes... the overwhelming shock wave knocked the bandit away from the side in time. It was Lambert's Alder Seal.

The pain woke Victor up. Although the shock wave was immediate, the dagger still scraped across his nose, leaving a bloody mark.

After regaining consciousness, the boy watched Lambert do what he should have done long ago - he stabbed the monster to death on the ground with his steel sword.

His first demon-killing mission ended in such a whimper.

He jumped off the horse handsomely, and then did nothing...

The noisy and chaotic "Kill him!" in his mind a few seconds ago was now silent.

Instead, there was a scream of astonishing volume, the little girl's scream, screaming for the broken body and the blood all over her body, the scream attracted the boy's attention, and the four eyes met and made her scream even more shrill.

"Her panic-stricken eyes were directed at me?

Why?

Why did she scream?

Did I do something wrong?

Why else would she scream at me?

Can she stop screaming?

Or would she rather see the so-called "real man"? "

In the emotional excitement, the boy suddenly questioned himself.

Pulling out the steel sword that nailed the bandit to death, Lambert approached and used an Axis seal to soothe the girl, making her fall asleep.

Victor looked around and didn't see her father. "Where is that guy? He actually ran away? What about his daughter?" His vocal cords were dry and his voice was hoarse, so that he could hardly recognize it.

Lambert smiled, shook off the blood on the sword with a strong swing, and sheathed the sword: "You are too excited and lost your normal judgment. He certainly dare not show up when we stand here. Her father is lying in the bushes not far to the left of us."

Take a deep breath to calm down, "... Then let's go..." The boy said listlessly.

"Speaking of the knight Victor who rescues people in distress, why don't you find that man and let him pay according to the accident law?" Lambert said with a bit of ridicule.

"I remember that if it is a murder, the witcher cannot ask for compensation. So let's go quickly, even for a second, I just want this to end sooner." Victor looked lonely in the blood all over the ground.

"We are obviously killing monsters! Okay, okay, don't look at me with that aggrieved look, blame poor little Wick... Let's go."

...

After galloping all the way without talking, the two arrived at the Pontar River at midnight. After cleaning the blood, mainly Lambert and Victor, they came to the ferry to camp and prepare to take a boat across the river tomorrow morning.

Lambert saw that Victor looked depressed, so he didn't talk to him deliberately. They ate some dry food and went to sleep.

But no one expected that Victor would not see the sun the next day.
