Witcher's Atelier

When the moon hung high in the sky for the second time, gentle white light covered the entire Desamuna, and the frantic roars spreading fear finally stopped. Only the autumn cicadas are left to make noisy noises and embellish the silent night.

Opening his eyes, Victor saw Regis' gentle gaze again. The whites of his eyes were still bloodshot, but there was no doubt that he had returned to his senses.

"I'm back, Mr. Victor Corleone." His dark eyes were deep.

His blue eyes were bright, "Welcome back, Mr. Emile Regis."

Tikka opened the cage lock, and the witcher helped the weak and paralyzed high-level vampire out of the bird cage, moved it to a clean place in the prison square area, and sat down.

"Where are the Angoulême people?"

"I can't bear to see you in pain, so I asked her to go outside first."

"Just can't bear it? I hope I didn't scare her."

"It's no problem. I've been running around here and there in the past few years, and there have been countless scary things. She's just not used to your appearance."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Knocking on his knee, Regis whispered: "Thank you, thank you for everything you have done for her. I can feel that Angouleme is very happy now and has finally found her own place."

Victor shrugged, "You're welcome, she also means a lot to me. She is my sister and my first greeting to the world...

In terms of close relationship, it should actually be me thanking you for saving her from the gallows. "

"Yuan, that was Geralt's doing. I don't dare to take credit."

They smiled at each other again.

Moving his neck, Victor smoothed his hair and said, "Stop brooding, Regis. I feel like you have questions to ask me. It doesn't matter. You can just tell me anything?"

"Is it that obvious?"

"When you come out of the birdcage, you may be really weak at first, but I don't think high-level vampires need to rest for so long."

"Okay Wick, I originally wanted to wait for you to take the initiative to speak, but after all, it concerns my friend Dettlaff..." Regis rubbed his palms, "When we talked about the 'Five Virtues Crime' in the cemetery earlier, I could feel it. Until you have reservations..."

Victor touched his nose.

“At first glance, it sounds like you don’t know who the fifth virtue ‘compassion’ refers to. You only mentioned that you can stop Dettlaff when the victim of the fourth virtue ‘heroism’ is in danger next month.

But based on your determination of the "criminal pattern", I think you actually know who the victim of the fifth virtue is, but you are unwilling to say it. Considering the structure of the crime, "mercy" is the real goal of the criminal.

Extending my thinking from your avoidant attitude... Can I assume that as long as you name the compassionate victim, we can easily find out the true identity of the villain who threatened my friend Dettlaff - the criminal behind the scenes. "

The witcher blinked, "Excellent inference, just a small flaw, the wording is not precise enough, your referent does not have a stick...so it is not a villain."

The high-level vampire touched his goatee, "It's a woman!?"

Considering Regis' position on this matter, it was closer to his own, so Victor patted his thigh.

"I haven't figured out what to do about this matter. Sometimes knowing too much will tie my hands and feet. I would like to hear your opinion. Let me tell you a story.

But it must be emphasized in advance that the parts that can be verified are excluded, and it is filled with a lot of conjecture, speculation and so-called prophets. What I state only represents what I see and understand. "

Taking out the notepad from the herbal bag, Regis said with great interest, "Our race is not affected by hallucinations, and there is no prophet, so I can hear the prophet answer the secrets of the future to me. Frankly speaking, I am very excited. No. If you mind, I’d like to record the conversation?”

"Of course, let's talk as we go. But you will soon find out that my prophet is not as magical as you think, and the predictions don't even rhyme!"

Putting his hands together, Regis high-fived and bowed slightly. This was the ancient etiquette when asking for advice from the prophet. He did it meticulously.

…

Passing through the dark figurines, high-level vampires and witchers walked to the ground again and walked in the courtyard of Desamuna Castle.

"Let's start with the conclusion. The victim of the Fifth Virtue's 'mercy' was Anna Henrietta, Grand Duke of Toussaint.

The person who threatened your friend Dettlaff and tried to murder Anayetta was her biological sister Sylvia. Anna.

The criminal expectation was that after the original ruler lost popularity and died, Xianna appeared in time and could legitimately inherit the principality. "

The two of them found a comfortable step and sat down. Victor took out a bottle of red wine from the herbal bag and handed it to Regis, a classic Lafite from the 1970s.

"As far as I know, there is no such thing as Xianna in the Beauclair court. Why is the sister who was supposed to inherit the principality wandering away?" The herbalist told the question easily as he took a sip of red wine.

After taking back Lafite and drinking it, the witcher said with a sad tone, "The thing is very simple. Miss Sylvia Anna was born during the curse of the black sun."

"Ah... what an unfortunate woman." Regis, who was familiar with human history, immediately thought of the cause of the tragedy.

"Yes, the prophecy of the mad mage Etibad predicts that human civilization will eventually be destroyed at the hands of sixty girls born during the solar eclipse, through a certain unknown witch Lilit."

"But his parents believe it?"

"Correct. Sianna has been tortured by the Black Sun Curse since she was a child. Eventually, her parents decided to drive her out of the principality. The knights who escorted her abroad insulted and abused her along the way, and abandoned her in the jungle to let the little girl fend for herself.

Just think about it, a little girl was abandoned in the forest in winter, walking barefoot for an unknown distance, and was finally taken in by kind-hearted bandits.

Then she spent many years of hard work to gather forces, and she secretly returned to Toussaint to implement a grand revenge plan against those immoral knights and her cold-blooded sister who forgot her.

Through the "Five Virtues Trial", Sianna can not only comfort her heart, but also get back what she lost.

Doesn't it sound very inspiring? It's simply a girl's version of the Prince's Revenge!"

After listening to the witcher's After describing and thinking carefully about the cause and effect, the herbalist shook his head and sighed, "What a heartbreaking story. If she were my friend, I would even be willing to help her get revenge.

But she made an extremely serious mistake. She shouldn't have kidnapped Dettlaff's woman, let alone threatened my friend."

As soon as Regis finished speaking, he noticed that Victor's expression was half-smile, "What's the matter? Did I say anything wrong?"

The witcher picked up a stone and threw it far away, "No, it's all right in theory, but there is a fact you don't know yet.

Miss Sylvia Anna, during her travels in various countries, she used the alias Rena Weide for a period of time, which means in ancient language──"

"──The Queen's Child." The herbalist's voice suddenly became dry.

"That's right. Look! It happens to be the same name as Dettlaff's lover.

So now things are getting very troublesome. I despise the so-called Black Sun Curse and pity Sianna's unfortunate experience. I hope she can survive and reconcile with her sister.

So Regis, can you tell me what Dettlaff's reaction would be if he knew that his missing lover had deceived him?"

"Wick... I... I can't give you a definite answer." The herbalist looked tangled. "Dettlaff is a simple vampire. He doesn't look at things as tolerantly as I do. It's hard for me to predict his attitude.

I can only say that if he finds out that he has been deceived... I think things will definitely not just become very troublesome, it will be a huge trouble!"
