Witcher's Atelier

The next morning, at the port of Vizima, the Trinidad set sail with a full load of Redanian medical team. They will return to the city of learning "Oxenfurt" along the Pontar River.

"Victor watched the sail go away, and suddenly felt empty in his chest. The ship may not only take away Shani, but also his heart."

"......!?"

Take off your sunglasses and pinch your nose bridge. Victor glanced at Angouleme expressionlessly, "As expected of you, this time the narration is very touching, like a bard who specializes in writing love skits. Do I need to arrange a rich training course for you?"

Hearing such a horrifying punishment, the newly-minted honorary knight of Temeria rolled his eyes and turned his head to whistle innocently.

"Tsk!" The witcher retracted his sharp eyes. Although this girl deserved a beating in various ways, she was the most loyal henchman under his command after all. A little intimidation would be enough to make her stop.

Turning back to the city, he happened to meet the eyes of an old acquaintance, and he saluted Victor.

…

People come and go, and the dock is more vibrant than before, because not only the fishing industry is recovering, but also a large amount of logs are needed to rebuild the burned city. Swamp Forest Village may become the biggest winner.

Angouleme was on guard not far away, feeding the hawk with raw meat, and having a good time with Catherine.

The gang members of the Ram Gang were patrolling the transactions at the other end and protecting the leader.

When they met again after the turmoil, Lansmeet's attitude was adjusted again, from the reasonableness of the first meeting to the equal communication more than half a month ago, and now even a bit of modesty and respect.

Scar's bald head shone in the morning light, worthy of being a figure who can do everything in Vizima.

And after a few short exchanges, Victor owed him a favor, because Dandelion actually left with his help.

At the beginning of the inhuman turmoil, the drunken bard in "Hairy Bear" was sent out of the city by Lansmit. Now he is happily eating and drinking for free, which can be regarded as a model of a thousand-year-old disaster.

In exchange, the witcher also casually cared about the few members of the Ram Gang he knew, and only then did he know that "Black Dog" was unfortunately killed in the incident. He remembered that he asked him to lead the way to visit last year and gave him a generous tip. Who would have thought that they would be separated from each other in the Yin and Yang, and he couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of life.

The two chatted for a while and negotiated the business of Serricania explosive powder. Just as they were about to discuss the price of saltpeter, Lansmit suddenly kept silent, bowed and led his men to retreat silently.

Turning around, Victor frowned. It turned out to be this troublesome guy. No wonder the Ram Gang wanted to leave. The person who came was a thin bald man wearing a monocle, and there was another woman with her collar fully opened, who was also known.

Taller, the head of the Temerian Intelligence Bureau, and Vess, the deputy commander of the Blue Guards—a woman who doesn’t button her clothes, a female investigator, or a female hooligan who plays with walnuts.

The two of them walked up to Victor. Unlike last year’s indifference, Vess looked interested, bowed formally, and then walked around the witcher to Angouleme.

Taller smiled and nodded, “Please don’t mind. Vess is very curious about the excellence of Angouleme’s knights and the reason why she rejected the Blue Guards. So she knew I was coming to visit and took the initiative to ask to go with me.”

Watching Vess walk to Angouleme and start chatting with Harrier, the two women soon talked and laughed, and Victor shook his head.

"How did you know I was here?"

"Because Ms. Shani is leaving today. Please don't misunderstand, I haven't forgotten your warning - keep your distance from her, I care about the doctor purely for you."

Hands crossed, the witcher said in a gloomy voice, "I don't know why, what you said seems to make people feel more uncomfortable..."

"No need to be so alert, I don't plan to use you for anything, at least not now. Especially the statement of Knight Angouleme, which proves that you will leave Temeria soon, which makes me reflect deeply that I am such a damn bastard, so suspicious and despicable, and I didn't believe that you are a third party with good intentions until now!"

"I don't believe a word you say, I guess you will only feel at ease if we really get out of Vizima. So have mercy! Tell me your purpose, or start your performance."

Angouleme and Weiss, not far away, seemed to be communicating happily, already linked their shoulders, like plastic sisters.

Taler pushed the lens, reflecting a ray of light.

"Okay! ... Damn, I just judged that you were going to leave, to express respect and reconciliation. And I must remind you that you have entered the vision of some people, and what the Phantom Troupe did for Temeria will not be easily forgotten."

Yawning, Victor responded indifferently, "If we did something, it must not be for Temeria, but for Vizima! Do you believe it? Although Vizima is the capital of Temeria, in my mind, these are two completely different concepts."

"Of course I believe it, because you said it very clearly, but others may not believe it, especially the Black Sun in the South!

What you think is not important, what is important is what others think!

To ​​be honest, I actually welcome you to choose to serve King Foltest like Geralt, and satisfy your love with Lady Triss. I believe Lady Keira is also happy to work with you!"

Victor raised his eyebrows. No wonder everyone wanted to kill the "Eye of the King" at the beginning. This style of using intelligence is disgusting. Even if it is not coercion, the temptation is also annoying, especially this temptation must not have been agreed by Keira himself. Maybe send Batman to beat him up before leaving?

Noticing the dangerous gaze of the witcher, Taller raised his hands in surrender, "Hey, don't be like this, I'm just making suggestions, it's not worth getting angry!"

"The discussion is correct, but you got the most critical part wrong," Victor chuckled, "It doesn't matter what other people think, what matters is what I think!"

Not wanting to talk to Taler anymore, the group leader made a gesture to the group members, indicating that she could move around freely and have fun with Weiss.

The witcher and the intelligence chief passed each other, "I'm sorry, I'm very busy and have a mountain of things to do. Goodbye! Although I really want to say goodbye, you will definitely not listen to me."

…

Telling Taller that he was busy was not a lie. Victor was indeed very busy. Not only did he spend time collecting materials, but also the alchemy process of exchanging coins, making bombs, and replenishing potions. Everything was a time killer.

Being powerful comes at a price. Incredible Alchemy is a combat skill that requires a month of preparation and a minute of unrestrained freedom.

…

A few days later, it was still early morning, and the location was changed to outside the east city gate. Angouleme rode Amber and stopped a little further away, making it convenient for Victor and Keira. Maze said goodbye.

Wearing a blue spaghetti strap, she stuffed a volume of books into the witcher's arms, and the sorceress helped to take care of her collar. "It took me a long time to find this manuscript. It mentioned Professor Moru, and the ancient map of Toussaint was also included. Inside. How did you know this person? Are you not going to give me an explanation? It took so long to search by name, but you are confident that he is in Toussaint!"

Victor smiled gently and gracefully, "Don't ask, asking is a prophecy!"

"What third-rate prophecies do you have, you bastard?" Naturally, Keira changed from taking care of her collar to grabbing it.

The savage sorceress couldn't be offended, so the witcher followed his heart decisively, "Ahem...no...I'm joking, I heard someone mentioned it once. It is said that this Professor Moru once mutated his son for the second time and became a human being in a hundred years." The strongest gryphon witch hunter!”

Kayla narrowed her eyes and glared at Victor. After reading his mind for a while, she let go of her collar and helped him smooth out his wrinkles, "It's not a lie. It's really strange. I definitely smell like lying!"

There was no need to answer, so he kept smiling and quietly listened to the sorceress's instructions.

"...The Principality of Toussaint is subordinate to Nilfgaard, and is now governed by Anna Henrietta. It is a nervous fairy tale country. You should not be in danger there, but after all, is it to explore the mage's ruins? Be careful... and remember not to lose my mage mark, and you should also keep this 'Eye of Neherene'! You can use it to see through illusions, it may come in handy!"

"The Eye of Nehereni", Victor has been coveting this illusion-breaking prop in the original game for a long time. He had tried to ask for it before, but was proudly rejected by Keira. Unexpectedly, he took it out now.

Accepting her magic props and concern, the young man said in a sincere tone, "Thank you. Do you need anything to bring back for you?"

"Bring me red wine. The best bottles of red wine. 'East of the East' and 'Fiorano Rose' are the necessities. You can choose the rest by yourself." The sorceress was not polite at all.

Toussaint is rich in red wine. This request is not excessive, but the phrase "watch and choose" is full of testing meaning.

The witcher blinked, "Understood, so stay tuned!"

Gently hugging Victor, Keira kissed him face to face, then opened the portal and left, ignoring Angouleme's existence from beginning to end.

…

Leading the horse close to his companion, Victor looked up at Angouleme, "Don't worry about keeping you waiting. That person Keira is actually──"

Seeing the expression on the girl's face, the boy was speechless.

Angouleme rode on Amber's back: "──It's blue!" The honorary knight of Temeria smiled extremely obscenely.

That's right, the world-famous painting "Girl's Obscene Smile" is back again! It took the young man a long time to suppress the urge to kick in the air!

Victor jumped on the horse, "That's enough! I know the dress she is wearing today is blue, don't start talking about the 'tradition of sorceresses and witchers having sex' again!"

The two horses moved forward slowly. Angouleme's cocky mouth looked like the god of war had descended. "I'm not talking about the clothes, but her attitude towards me! The sorceress who never said a word, The aura in Eagle Vision is a blue ally, what do you think is the reason?”

Hearing this, the witcher was startled and speechless.

The girl then winked and said, "Besides, you either had sex a few days ago, or you scolded me for not even getting a raise!"

Victor's eyelids twitched, and he actually forgot about his talent for voyeurism. If Keira had a neutral attitude toward her, Angoulaine would not be able to see her, but unfortunately not.

Touching his nose, the commander-in-chief of the Phantom Troupe said in a majestic tone: "Deputy Captain Angouleme, let's talk about a salary increase now!"

…

Crossing the Ismina River and heading south along the Mahakam Mountains, the Phantom Troupe's journey went smoothly. They passed through Upper Soden and safely arrived at the Yaruga River to camp.

Tomorrow we will cross the Yaruga River, reach the Rivendell Valley, and then cross the mountains to reach the Principality of Toussaint.

After dinner at night, Victor started stirring the alchemy again as usual, and Angouleme also read and chatted beside him as usual.

"...Speaking of Toussaint, I'm an expert. I followed uncle, aunt Milva, Regis, Cassil, and Dandelion there all winter long...I don't know who I met at the beginning. Whether the person is still there or not, several years have passed in the blink of an eye...At that time, there was a guy who had been pursuing the aunt..."

The witcher smiled as she told him about how their team looking for the girl had gone through so much hardship to cross the war zone and enter Toussaint, and what happened in that beautiful country.

However, these things were actually not very relevant to Victor's goal. He just knew from his past experience in the game that there was a Professor Moreau in Toussaint who could provide secondary mutation equipment to enhance the witcher's combat effectiveness.

The battles with Aza and Jaques had a great impact on Victor, although most mages were like glass cannons, and they could be quickly dealt with by using human lives or catching their flaws.

However, some real combat mages practiced both magic and martial arts, and some had strong spells. Because of Ciri, the tribes he would often deal with in the future were exactly the top mages.

If you don't want to always look at other people's faces, then self-reliance is the only way. Professor Moreau's laboratory provides such an opportunity for sublimation.

According to the game setting, as long as you lie in a mutation chamber, and then there is a burst of thunder and lightning, the witcher will be reborn like Captain America and transform into a super witcher.

For example, if you choose the magic seal specialization, you can turn the shock wave of the Alder magic seal into an ice palm, the physical specialization can harden the epidermis, and the sword specialization will be faster and more powerful. In short, it is extremely powerful.

Although the reality cannot be so beautiful, it is obviously a goal with practical value, especially the magical mutation chamber. If you can fully master the technology behind it, the rise of Kaer Morhen is just around the corner!

Listening to Angouleme's nagging, the stirring stick in my hand keeps moving. It has become a regular pattern for so many days.

Before, Vesemir and Leo chose to conduct training activities in Toussaint. I hope they are still there. Then things will be simpler. The three witchers will join forces to attack the target and then enjoy the beautiful scenery of the countryside at leisure.

While planning a vacation, a colorful light suddenly shone, and another pot of potion was prepared. When he took out the test tube and started to bottle it, Angouleme suddenly jumped up with an eagle-like look.

Seeing this, Victor frowned, activated his extraordinary five senses, listened to and sniffed the hidden information from the wind, and then his brows relaxed.

The witcher raised his breath and said, "Reso, Oaks, Serrit, is that you? I am Victor!"
