Chapter 144 Triss’s Thoughts and the King’s Commission
On the third day, through the portal, Wayne and Triss returned to Vizima City.
As Foltest's royal advisor, the sorceress cannot leave Vizima for too long. This mission was only possible because of the king's permission to go to Maribor.
Although she was a little reluctant to leave Wayne, Triss quickly separated from him and went to the Vizima Palace, which had not yet been completely built.
Her work has been backlogged for several days, and she will have to work overtime for several days in a row.
After separating from the sorceress, Wayne also returned to his mansion. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the thin Alex holding a small hoe and cleaning the weeds in the yard. and stones.
He worked very hard, his thin clothes were soaked with sweat, and his forehead was dripping with sweat. He had to wipe the sweat off with his sleeves from time to time in order to see clearly what was in front of him.
When he saw Wayne pushing open the door, he was stunned for a moment, then showed a cheerful smile on his face and said loudly: "
Welcome home, Mr. Wayne."
He thought that he was just a child laborer taken in by Wayne, and he was not a child laborer. Knowing that Wayne intends to take him as an apprentice in the future, Alex is still quite satisfied with this job. Although the work is indeed a bit tiring, the food he eats every day is very good, well, it should be said that it is great.
I have never heard of any company where workers can have such a rich meal of fish and meat every day.
So Alex was truly grateful to Wayne who hired him home, and even regarded Wayne as his benefactor.
Because a few days ago, it was because of Wayne's rescue that he was not harmed by those bastards from the Rat Tail Gang.
Wayne just smiled at him gently and didn't say much. Time was still short. Although he was quite satisfied at the moment, he needed more time to see the child's character as the first apprentice. , the requirements for him are definitely the highest.
Without staying in the front yard, Wayne went to the blacksmith workshop in the backyard. The sound of the hammer hitting the iron felt reached his ears from a distance. The only person living in his house now was Berengar. He didn't expect this. The silent guy actually knows the skills of a blacksmith.
But it makes sense to think about it. In the original game, this guy seemed to have designed a sword named Tohaine himself, but he disappeared before it was completed.
Arriving at the blacksmith's workshop in the backyard, Wayne indeed saw Berengar wielding a blacksmith's hammer, as if he was building something.
After seeing Wayne coming over, Berengar nodded to him, said hello, and said,
"You're back, Wayne."
"The tools at home are not complete enough, so I made some myself. By the way, Build some training equipment for that child."
He was silent for a few seconds, and then asked:
"Will other children join in the future? Do I want to build more training tools."
Wayne thought for a while, He didn't hide it, but said seriously:
"There should be a few more children joining in the future. I'm not sure about the number yet." "
However, I don't plan to train them as demon hunters. Until our mutation technology is still available." Before they are perfected, I don't want to risk the lives of children." "
We are currently just training them as ordinary swordsmen. The swordsmanship of demon hunters is still quite powerful among ordinary people." "
This can also be done. Ensure that they can survive in a chaotic environment in the future."
After hearing this, Berengar took a deep look at Wayne. In the heart of this demon hunter, he did not want more children to be as miserable as him. It can be said that he agrees with Wayne's idea from the bottom of his heart.
So he nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Well, I understand what you mean, leave it to me."
In the following February, Wayne never received any major commissions. He made an appointment with Lala's brother Fitz and started a daily fish frying activity, trying to consume half of the fish people before the official operation began. the power of.
And every afternoon, he would go to Triss's home to learn the most basic magic knowledge, prepare dinner, and while communicating with Triss physically and mentally, he would tell her his questions about magic and get professional guidance.
It has to be said that as a top graduate of Aretusa College and a top-notch sorceress, Triss’s teachings are quite useful. As a magic teacher, her tone is gentle yet stern, and she has a wide range of knowledge. Every question can be answered in detail, which is much more effective than reading and studying alone. Such long time together, exchange of mutual interests, the union of soul and body, and joint study of magic knowledge have also made the relationship between the two grow stronger day by day. Although it is not a close relationship, it can be regarded as a passionate love.
When the time was right, Wayne told Triss about the underwater half-murloc city under Lake Vizima and the evil god Dagon, and invited the sorceress to complete this battle with him.
He did not say that this matter was related to the Lady of the Lake, but that he had been entrusted by a mysterious employer to take over the task of cleaning up these evil gods' minions.
"By the way, Triss, can you help us create a magic prop?"
"It would be best to help us move better underwater. The swordsmanship of the demon hunter is too seriously affected underwater."
" It would be great if we could create a barrier that separates the lake so that we can move freely underwater."
Triss nestled in Wayne's arms like a kitten, her fingers constantly touching his strong chest muscles. Wandering around, he did not answer the question immediately. Instead, after thinking for dozens of seconds, he suddenly asked:
"Have you told Keira about this?"
Wayne was a little embarrassed when he heard this. Since he got close to Triss, he He spends more time staying at Tris's house than at his own home, and the frequency of staying at Keira's house is also less.
Kayla seemed to have discovered something, but she had never discussed this issue directly with Wayne. The two still maintained a relationship of good friends and had no in-depth conversations about other issues.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, Wayne answered honestly:
"Not yet. Apart from my fellow demon hunters, I have only told you about this matter." "
However, because this matter involves the evil god, I I am worried that the operation is too dangerous, so I also want to invite Keira to join this operation, but I have not found a chance to mention it to her yet." After
hearing this, Triss posted it as if she had won some kind of victory . Wayne's chest tightened a little more, then he raised his head and kissed him on the corner of the mouth, and said, "
You don't have to worry about this now. I will tell King Foltest about the dangers of this matter." "
Wei. The shores of Lake Jimma are so close to New Vizima City. It should be the king's responsibility to deal with the monsters in the lake. I will persuade His Majesty the King to issue a formal commission." "Leave this matter to me
. Come and deal with it. Keira should also accept the king's entrustment and deal with this matter with me." "
You and your fellow demon hunters will also receive a bonus, so that you can There are two bonuses."
Wayne was stunned when he heard this. The action against the underwater half-murloc was just his idea to repay the goddess of the lake. He had not yet thought that he could get it from King Foltest. The bonus was an unexpected bonus for him.
Although Triss will definitely get some benefits from it, so what? Who wouldn’t want the free bonus? This is a win-win move. How could Wayne refuse?
He looked at the kitten-like sorceress, and the details were so fruitful. He kissed Triss on the forehead and said with a smile: "No problem, I'll leave
this matter to you. To be honest, in fact, I don’t know how to tell Keira that it’s not my wish to let you two participate in such a dangerous operation.”
Triss glanced at Wayne, exhaled a hot breath, bit her lower lip, and said :
"I have rested, dear little apprentice, let's go to the second round."
.........
A week later, Triss indeed received the royal commission from King Foltest, entrusting Triss with The first one to eliminate the evil god Dagan on the shores of Lake Vizima will give high bonuses to the demon hunters who assist her in the battle.
Keira will serve as her deputy and assist Triss in completing this mission.
