Witcher's Atelier
Chapter 309: The Storm is Coming, Good Will Be Rewarded
Faced with the temptation of wild beauty, Victor can actually finish his work and leave!
Except for violent injuries or rejection cases, under normal circumstances, the female night devil never refuses an invitation to fight. There is nothing she can't do unless you think of it.
However, "beating small animals" was still too cruel. Victor didn't want to lose his martial virtues at a young age, so he gave the opportunity to Dandelion. Anyway, as a witcher, he may still encounter a beautiful female night devil like Nita in the future. It should be said that there are no female night devils who are not beautiful.
Just when I was returning to the city, I saw two trees on the side of the road, one was a lemon tree, and the other was also a lemon tree.
After entering the city, passing by Lundulin Square, I caught a glimpse of Felicia's long queue at her stall. Victor smiled brightly, and the sign of the stall had suddenly been changed to - "Affordable haircut, and you will get a miracle, amulet or bait when you apply for a card." . It is estimated that with the promotion of epoch-making business methods, Miss Keli will be able to successfully graduate soon.
Following the guidance of the bonfire on the roadside, he returned home. When he entered the door, he saw the food box on the table, which exuded the aroma of "roast beef", while the dragon slayer was lazily leaning on the sofa and reading a book.
Even in her leisure time, she still wears half armor.
"Where did you go today and are you back so late?"
"As commissioned by the Scoia'tael, several corpses were found outside Vergen City. They are suspected to have been killed by monsters."
"I heard Mayor Cecil mention that such a bad crime hasn't happened in a long time. What kind of monster did it?"
"The most terrifying monster in the hearts of nobles, the Scoia'tael."
Saskia closed the book with a snap and sat up straight, her eyes bright and heroic, "Elves!? Why do they do this?"
The Scoia'tael she accepted against all odds actually committed serial murders within a few days of living there. This was a serious provocation to the Dragon Slayer, and would even affect the overall strategic situation, so she couldn't let it go unnoticed.
Victor shook his head, "Don't be nervous, it's just a case. An elf fell in love with a female night demon in an abandoned village. He committed a crime out of jealousy."
The saint was slightly startled. This answer was much better than expected, but improper operation would still affect the atmosphere of unity. "How are you going to deal with it?"
"Ereas belongs to the commando team. Tomorrow I will go to the Scoia'tael's adjutant Lanxi to resolve this matter 'privately'." Knowing the other party's concerns, the witcher emphasized that it should be resolved privately.
"……,Thanks."
"You're welcome, no one wants this to happen. Are you hungry? Can I cook you a bowl of noodles?"
She relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, "That's perfect."
Watching Victor walk into the kitchen with the food box, Saskia reopened the closed book.
Their recent relationship has been so natural. He would bring some food to eat together, and the witcher would listen to her complaints. Most of the content was about nobles who were holding back and princes who were causing trouble. Victor always made her feel better.
As for the actual political operation, it belongs to Philippa. As for Erhart's business, she used sharp words to attack the nobles at meetings time and time again, attacking the prestige of Prince Stennis.
…
And when they were chatting tonight. A boat slowly docked on the north bank of the Pontar River, and more than twenty people jumped off it. They could be identified from their clothing as the Blue Guards.
Not long ago, he watched the Scoia'tael leave at the floating port. Vernon Roche spent a few days stabilizing security and arranging ships. Now, a group of people chasing the King Killer have also arrived around Vergen.
Leading his men, he went to the military camp to visit King Henselt of Kaedwen.
And walking with the blue-clad iron guards is another person, he is the "Sword of Destiny" - "Geralt of Rivia".
…
The next morning, Victor found the dreadlocked girl Lanxi at the camp in the back mountain forest. Isni blue.
The bright sunshine shines through the leaves and onto the ground. Some elves around are setting fires for cooking, while others are maintaining their weapons. It can be seen that their energy and spirit have been significantly improved after receiving abundant supplies.
In accordance with the witcher's request for a private report, she and he came to sit across from each other in the tent, with bread and broth in front of them.
He scooped up a ladle of broth, the slightly salty taste was okay, "Let me tell you straight to the point, the monster lurking in the abandoned village is a female night demon."
"Night Demon!?" After hearing this name, Lan Xi stopped chewing bread and looked confused.
As one of the most well-known monsters in the mainland, few people don't know the habits of the Night Demon. Although he has never actually seen them, the adjutant has also heard of their reputation as a weak man's nightmare and a strong man's dream.
"Why would they kill someone if they just wanted to mess around with men? So you killed her?"
"No, I communicated with her," Victor shrugged. "She claimed that an elf who had just arrived—Ereas—should be responsible for this series of deaths."
Suddenly feeling no appetite, Lan Xi put down the bread and brushed her dreadlocks with her right hand. "please continue."
"It is said that he was the night devil's guest, but he could not accept the nature of the night devil, Nita, and did this frame-up behavior out of jealousy."
She crossed her arms and said, "...Wick, she is a monster after all. How credible do you think...this Nita's words are? Sorry, I don't want to question your professionalism, but is there any evidence? After all, Airei Yas is one of our best warriors. Could it be that the monster is shirking responsibility, or is she tempting Elias to do this?"
Whether it is body movements or words, it shows that the adjutant is not very willing to accept the investigation results. Even if the wording is very subtle, the meaning is still-"Is it true? I don't believe it!"
She just didn't question whether the witcher was also bribed by the Night Demon with her body...
Of course, this emotion is very natural, just like many parents of criminals will say, "My child is very well-behaved, someone must have led him wrong..."
"The Night Stalker has been living outside Vergen City for at least half a year. What a coincidence that she didn't start killing people until the Scoia'tael showed up?" Smiling at the adjutant's stern expression, Victor took out a small piece of metal and handed it to Lan Xi, "Remember What? Let’s compare the blade fragments found in the corpse with Elias’s sword!”
"I will find him to confirm the evidence," the adjutant who took the metal piece hesitated, "Can I trouble you..."
Victor yawned, "I will keep it a secret. Those who know are friends. If you handle it properly, this matter may not exist."
After Lan Xi leaned over to express her thanks, she suddenly stood up and walked out of the tent. Looking from behind, her dreadlocks were flying freely.
…
After slowly eating the bread with the broth, Victor met Iorveth when he left the camp. He and several of his subordinates were about to enter the city for a war meeting.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Iorveth was dressed more formally, and his expression became a little softer. The scars on half of his face that were originally covered with a scarf were now openly exposed.
They walked side by side, "Why do you have the leisure to come to the back mountain so early in the morning?"
"Because the air is fresh, you know, I always like to run in the morning."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! I really envy your leisure."
"I see how you are preparing for the battle by having meetings like this every day. Do you think you can stop Henselt's army?"
Narrowing his eyes slightly, the elf waved his hands to ask his subordinates to take a few steps back, and replied in a low voice: "No."
"...Wait a minute, did I hear you correctly? You mean you can't stop it?"
"I'm afraid not from my observation. The fortifications and all these dwarf creations are still not enough to resist the Kaedwen. Henselt has too many soldiers."
"Knowing that it is difficult to defeat, you still continue to fight? This is not like your style."
"It's just that we can't do it now. With the demon spirit mist blocking us, and time is on our side, the situation will change sooner or later. Besides, on the other side of the mist, the king-slayers are still looking at them. Maybe they can successfully assassinate Henselt, so that's it. It will be the winner that changes everything.
No matter what, I will follow through on my commitment to support Saskia's ideals. And we will win in the end! "
Touching the nose, the elf's discussion sounded a bit mysteriously confident and romantic in the end, but the witcher certainly would not attack the other party.
They walked among the trees, and there was a faint gurgling stream.
"So the Kingslayers still want to kill Henselt!? Maybe now is a good time for you to explain to me what exactly is going on with your alliance with Leitho?"
Iorveth tapped his shoulder, "If you want to know, Victor, I will hide nothing from you.
The truth is I have no idea who they are or who they work for. Letho came to me two months ago when he escaped from the pursuers of Aedirn. He brought Demavi's head as a guarantee and proposed that we help each other.
He asked us to cover him and hide in the forest in exchange for the heads of Foltest and Henselt. Although his motives were very suspicious, and many intelligence sources or support were unknown to us, we didn't pay much anyway, so I made the decision and agreed to cooperate. In the end, Foltest's kill proved that he was worth every penny.
Two of Letho's associates, Seret and Oakes, planned to kill Henselt with the help of the Scoia'tael in the Pontar Valley, and as you know we parted ways after Letho tried to kill me. There was a Scoia'tael camp on the other side of the fog that was completely killed by them. So far, I still don't understand their real pursuit. "
Iorveth's answer did not surprise Victor. To assassinate Foltest, not a wild organization like the Scoia'tael could succeed. Although there were countless complicated accidents that day, at least the whereabouts of Anais and Balsi must be known before they can accurately ambush in the monastery tower.
I remember Reso once said that there are many people willing to help their assassination operations. It seems that there must be betrayers in Temeria and Lavaredi Castle who betrayed intelligence. Only a few big countries can achieve this amazing espionage intensity. If they can do it, they who are the executors will most likely be silenced.
How could it be that... the snake sect witcher is seeking death like this, is there still time to see him again...?
Shaking his head to shake away his heavy thoughts, Victor changed the subject, "Counting the time, Toluvel should also be home. Io, have you ever been to the Valley of Flowers?"
"Dol Bretanna... is just a vassal state of the Nilfgaardian Emperor. They claim to be the country of free elves, but they do not welcome the Scoia'tael."
"I believe that is just a superficial rejection. Francesca will definitely be able to accept it in private. I also mentioned to Toluvel a few years ago that considering the population base of elves, the best policy is to reproduce and recuperate. ”
"Reproduction!? It's very difficult." Iorveth's expression suddenly became lost and sad, "Since the Contract of Cintra, Francesca established a principality in Dol Bretanna, with more than 20,000 elves. live there.
Five years later, do you know how many children they had? Less than a hundred. It is no longer a valley of blooming flowers, but a valley of infertile elders! Our race is going extinct! "
Victor was deeply shocked when he heard this number. No matter how conservative the calculation was, this number was too rare.
"Why is this? Is it so difficult for you elves to conceive?"
The elf smiled bitterly, "Dana Mida (Meliteli)! It turns out that the extremely smart Wick also doesn't know something? Although our lifespan is long, the time we can reproduce is very short, only from 20 to 40 years old, and it is difficult to conceive, so the fertility rate is very low.
Originally, we still had a chance to reproduce, but two hundred years ago in the second elven war, Redania broke the peace treaty and massacred the elven city of Romne. The 'White Rose' Aileen led a whole generation of young people to rise up in resistance, but they were all slaughtered by the army in the end.
She certainly fought for freedom, but that kind of enthusiasm destroyed the last hope with her own hands. Ain. Shedi (elves) has never recovered since then and had to retreat into the forest or become second-class citizens in the reserved areas of human cities."
Finally, Iorveth calmly concluded, "Although we fight like wolves, we still can't beat a race that can reproduce like rabbits."
Pity... This is heavier than the topic of the king killer just now...Victor was speechless.
…
They kept silent until they separated after entering the city. Iorveth took people to a meeting, while Victor, who was melancholy, strolled along the cobblestone road.
Although he felt that what humans did was really unkind, there was actually nothing to blame. The stroll with conflicting emotions ended when a stall owner on the side of the road, a female elf, blocked his way.
Summer was really terrible. Her turquoise open-collared dress was pulled all the way to her lower abdomen, which was of course considered normal clothing.
The blonde vendor smiled sweetly, "Hello, Witcher Victor, nice to see you again!"
Facing the beautiful elf girl, Victor politely responded, "Again... Have we met before?"
"Floating Harbor, the mansion of that scumbag Loreto. Although it was another woman who freed me, I will never forget your face." She shook her head, "Oh, that's terrible, I feel bad when I think of it, anyway, I am deeply grateful to you."
It turned out to be the woman who was rescued at that time. Victor smiled and nodded, "Well... I'm sorry to remind you of those..."
"No need to say that, you are my benefactor. By the way, I think I should give you something in return... You know I reopened my business here, which can always build confidence. What can I use to seduce you?"
After saying that, she straightened her chest and shook it gently. It should be noted that it was summer now, and she was still wearing a green cloth robe that was almost open.
Victor was a little dizzy by the whiteness of the snow, "Sorry... Madam, do you mean what I was thinking about?"
"If you want it too. According to the moral standards of our elves, you saved my life, so it's not too much to have some fun, and I think you're pretty cute... and... very strong!"
"..., I just happen to have some needs, I accept your challenge."
"You'll know after you try it!" With a charming smile, the female elf generously took the witcher's hand and walked to the cave behind the stall.
In 1271 AD, the third elf war took place in Vergen. Victor represented humans and won another comprehensive victory. He scored eight bogeys, eight strokes above par, and defeated the elf shop owner.
And the originally depressed mood also completely disappeared.
