Witcher's Atelier

Vernon Roche, late commander of the Temerian Blue Guards and a cigar lover.

After the fall of the kingdom, he did not give up, but led the guerrillas with his deputy commander, Vess, to continue harassing Nilfgaard, vowing to make the "lily" bloom again.

As for the little girl Anais La Valette, whom Victor had helped to save in Lomne, she was hiding in a secluded countryside under the protection of Regent Natalis.

Integrating White Wolf's statement, in summary, it shows two things: everyone he knew is still alive, and, Temeria is not dead!

However, after listening to Geralt's recent situation of the exiles, Victor's first thought was - you are worthy of it - White Wolf. The darling of the world - a living bipedal self-propelled plot trigger and pile driver.

Roche was found by you even when he was hiding in the valley. Sure enough, the best and the worst are always related to you.

Perhaps it is precisely this kind of magical luck, personal charm and a hundred years of accumulation that can connect countless strangers on the continent and form a complete "Witcher" story chain.

It can only be said that in the memory of the previous life, he became the protagonist of the game, which was indeed a reasonable choice.

The second thought that flashed through Victor's mind was that Radovid actually did not believe in himself, otherwise he would not have assigned the White Wolf to re-examine the ruins of Eteye.

On the other hand, this incident also shows how unshakable his deep obsession with Philippa Ehrhart is.

Of course, no matter how suspicious he is, there is only one truth. Geralt's investigation results are consistent with his own, and it is even more impossible for the sorceress to appear out of nothing in the cave.

As for the reward for the hard work of the centenarian-Cyprian Willy, this ruthless and at the same time high-minded Hawthorne II, after failing to murder the other three giants, fled to Oxenfurt to hide.

But his whereabouts could not be hidden from the Redanian royal spies. As he had lost his usefulness, Radovid gave him to Geralt as a reward.

The king rewarded him by sending a guide to show the direction of the witcher.

What made Victor feel interesting was that the guide was actually someone he knew.

…

A moonless night.

“Boom! Crack! Swoosh!”

There was a torrential rain in the gloomy sky. Perhaps it was a typhoon passing through. The windows were banging, covering up the fighting and wailing.

This was the mansion where Hawthorne II was hiding.

The gold and red colors of the Redanian style were fully displayed in the decoration of this building. Whether it was tapestries, picture frames, armor or decorations, they all showed the temperament of a nouveau riche.

But now this gorgeous hall was horribly destroyed by the brutal massacre.

Blood was dripping, staining the tapestry frame, limbs were flying everywhere, forming a postmodern decoration, and more than 20 gangsters in clown costumes were lying dead on the ground.

Only three people were still standing in the field.

Half of the leather armor was dyed ochre red, and the blood on the scimitar was dripping, but the white-haired elf had a smile on his face, like a noble butler welcoming guests, bowing and pointing to the second floor stairs.

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission. So far, the last and most loyal subordinates of Hawthorne II have all been destroyed, and his palace of pleasure is upstairs. No one can hinder your steps anymore."

The gray cloak was stuck with thick blood, and the blood groove of the steel sword was also flowing bright red. The two witchers looked at each other, and the blond young man smiled and raised his hand to make a gesture of please go.

Nodding in greeting, the white-haired middle-aged man shook off the blood stains on the sword and stepped upstairs first, leaving only the white-haired elf and the blond young man in the hall, getting a short conversation.

"Tsk tsk! How can I put it... Your appearance is incredible, but also reasonable, Mr. Bosler."

"I feel the same way. I didn't expect to meet you here, Sir Victor."

Incredible and reasonable.

The white-haired elf swordsman who betrayed Hawthorne I. Alphonse Willy has now scored twice and betrayed Hawthorne II. Cyprian Willy again.

The same thing happens again and again, it is not accidental, but inevitable.

"Thank you for your help, so that we can quickly deal with these minions. You don't need to do this." Victor pointed to the corpse on the ground.

Bosler sheathed his knife, "You're welcome. It's a good thing to end Hawthorne II. He will only bring disorder and chaos. And it's my honor to be able to help you."

"...So, you are actually Radovid's men?"

"No, I am the victor's men."

"What a perfect answer for you."

"Yes, it's better to be alive than dead."

Reunion in a foreign land, fate, wonderful.

Radovid sent Bosler to lead the way for Geralt, and the white-haired elf saw Victor and the white wolf, who had not seen each other for a long time, and enthusiastically led them directly from the side door to Hawthorne II's hiding place, and even took the initiative to participate in the killing.

With his help from inside and outside, the result is the current situation. No one can even notify Cyprian to escape, and he is caught in the jar directly.

"The mission is completed, and I should leave. Your Majesty is not a tolerant monarch. But before leaving, can you satisfy my curiosity... Why do you witchers want to trouble Hawthorne?"

This question is not difficult to answer.

The blond young man scratched his hair. "For Geralt, that cousin's son knew some key information, involving a very important person.

And for me, it's probably the same as yours. Whenever someone like him dies, it is a gentle comfort to the world."

"Ah! I'm glad that you and I share the same opinion. I'm even more sorry that Mr. Alphonse has such a son." The white-haired elf bowed slightly.

"By the way, I have something to ask you. Do you know what happened to the Knights of the Flaming Rose? Where is the former leader, 'Siegfried of Danso' now?"

"I didn't expect you to care about that group of lunatics," Bosler laughed gloatingly. "Siegfried refused the king's order for a comprehensive witch hunt, and the Knights were ordered to disband by Radovid. Most of the knights followed Patrick to become witch hunters, and only a few followed Siegfried to leave. I heard that they are active near Baotong Village in the north."

Victor didn't expect to hear such an ending. He shook his head and was speechless. Although he was not optimistic about the future of the Knights of the Flaming Rose from the beginning, he still had some subtle feelings when he saw it rise and fall.

The Knights, who were once in their heyday, and the armed forces that Vizima had the final say, finally disappeared after losing the support of the king.

Seeing that Victor didn't say anything, "I'm working for the royal spy now, so I'm well-informed. I'm always happy to serve you at any time and in any matter." Bosler added with a smile, and then bowed to say goodbye.

Nodding in return, watching his hurriedly leaving back, Victor raised his eyebrows in doubt, not only because Bosler could really help, but also because his attitude was too friendly.

Although they had a good relationship in Novigrad before, it was only at the level of "mutual respect", not deep enough for him to help kill people, let alone make him help with all his strength.

But he did it today, and the posture he put on was very clear-as long as he opened his mouth, he would go all out.

Such an unnatural behavior made him have a guess in his heart, maybe the other party...

...

After pondering for a while, Victor turned and stepped onto the stairs to the second floor. His footsteps were light but fast, like the footsteps of the god of death.

He had to see Hawthorne II off for the last mile, after all, he was entertained by his father that year. Although he didn't know whether Mr. Alphonse wanted this reward, Victor decided to send this cousin's son to hell to reunite with him completely and forever.
