The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 135: Because I have been caught in the rain, I also want to hold an umbrella for others

Chapter 135: Because I have been caught in the rain, I also want to hold an umbrella for others
Geralt returned contentedly to his villa in the upper town, which Lynn had told him about earlier.

He just opened the gate of the courtyard and walked in holding Luobo.

Then a little girl came out trotting to greet them.

He also bowed to him.

"You are Sir Geralt, right? Lord Lynn and Lord Berengar have been waiting for you for a long time."

Geralt was stunned.

In his decades of career as a demon hunter.

I've been called a "mutant," a "freak," and a "monster with cat eyes" so many times that I've lost count.

But the number of times I was respected like this was pitifully small.

Cassia helped him take off the two swords on his back.

The two long swords that the demon hunter could wield at will still seemed a bit heavy for a child.

Cassia could only hold one at a time in both hands before placing it on the weapon rack.

After Geralt put his muddy boots at the door and changed into the indoor shoes Cassia had prepared for him, he led the way.

"Please follow me, Sir Geralt."

The two came to the hall.

I saw Lynn and Berengar placing plates of prepared food on the table.

"You're back just in time, Geralt. I was thinking I'd leave you some food if you hadn't come back."

"Cassia, sit down too, and let's eat together."

The girl nodded obediently.

The four of them sat down at the long table.

No one spoke during this time, only the sound of chewing food could be heard.

After dinner, Cassia skillfully put the dishes into the basket and then carried the basket to the kitchen to wash them.

Berengar volunteered to help in the kitchen.

Lynn and Geralt were the only ones left in the hall.

Geralt glanced towards the kitchen. "That child, is he your unexpected child?"

Lin En wiped the table with a cloth and said, "How is that possible? I just took her in."

"Have you thought about her future? Do you plan to train her to be a demon hunter?"

"No, women cannot become witchers of any school other than the Cat School. You know this better than I do."

"So you want that child to undergo the Grass Trial of the Cat School?"

Lynn stopped wiping the table and looked at Geralt.

"Of course not, Geralt. What are you thinking? I'm not some emotionless bear scholar. I can't just sit there and watch my little one, who I trust, go through the Green Grass Trial with a survival rate of only 3 in 10."

"However, in this utterly rotten era, I will teach her martial arts. She's an elf. Even if she doesn't become a demon hunter, with her long lifespan, as long as she diligently studies, no matter what her talent is, she will possess combat abilities far superior to those of ordinary people."

Geralt breathed a sigh of relief.

"sorry."

"I accept your apology."

In fact, it’s not just Cassia.

If Lynn meets another apprentice who is suitable to be a witcher in the future, he will treat him with caution.

He knew that the herbal decoction formulas from all schools of thought were actually flawed.

It's just that the degree of defects is different.

That's why the survival rate is so low.

Therefore, he would not allow any child to undergo the Green Herb Trial before improving the formula of the Green Herb Decoction and significantly increasing the survival rate.

Are you kidding? Lin En has been caught in the rain himself, so how could he possibly tear someone else's umbrella?

There is not much nightlife in this era.

Even in a city like Novigrad, the nighttime entertainment is nothing more than playing cards, boxing, and discussing life with people of the opposite sex or the same sex by candlelight.

Lynn was not interested in any of these.

After he cleaned up the living room, he went back to his room.

When he stood in front of the door of his room, the roaring wolf head badge hanging around his neck suddenly trembled violently.

He was startled at first, but then his expression returned to normal.

Push the door open.

Sure enough, I saw a beautiful figure sitting at the only table in my room.

Unlike before, the sorceress did not wear the tight-fitting outfit that facilitated movement. Instead, she changed into a dark green deep-V dress with golden patterns painted on it, showing her noble temperament.

"How did you know I was coming back today?"

"I just know it."

Triss snorted in triumph.

She would never tell you that she had been opening a portal every day for almost half a month since the first snow melted, specifically teleporting from Vizima back to her house in Novigrad.

Just to see if Lynn is back.

"Have you eaten yet? If not..."

The witcher's next words were blocked by the sorceress's affectionate kiss.

Lynn instinctively hugged Triss's slender waist.

He didn't let go of the other until the latter was a little out of breath.

"Bad guy."

Triss poked Lynn's chest hard with her finger.

Then she took out a notebook from her handbag and placed it in Lynn's hand.

"Here, what you want."

"So fast?"

Lynn made no effort to conceal her surprise.

Although both are languages ​​of ancient races, the difficulty of Elvish (Ancient Language) is different from that of Dwarven.

The former is at least one level more difficult than the latter.

This is because Dwarvish is not very complex.

Due to the straightforward nature of the dwarves, as long as one masters the common words and grammar of the Dwarven language, one can almost be considered an expert in the Dwarven language.

But the Old Language was different. Because the elves considered themselves the most superior and noble race, they deliberately made the learning and use of the Old Language more difficult when they invented it.

To put it simply, it means not speaking human language.

As long as you can use flowery language to embellish it, it is definitely not straightforward.

Not to mention that in order to be elegant, a paragraph usually contains various metaphors, allusions, etc.

This means that even if you reach level eight in Ancient Language, it will be useless.

You still have to continue to study the culture and history of the elves.

Only when you can recite all those things by heart can you truly understand what these long ears are saying.

Seeing Lynn's surprised expression, Triss felt as sweet as drinking honey in her heart.

She stayed up late to work overtime, wasn't it just because she wanted to see Lin En's current expression?

"Do you have any unfinished work at the Vizima Palace tonight?"

The sorceress vaguely guessed the reason why the witcher asked the question, and an expectant look appeared on her face.

"No, what do you want to do?"

"Of course I offer my most sincere thanks."

Following the sorceress's sweet laughter, the witcher extinguished the lights in the room.

……

late at night.

Lynn tiptoed out of her room and closed the door gently.

He went into the living room and lit a candle.

In the dim flickering candlelight, he opened the notebook that Triss had translated into the common language.

Then he read the entire contents of the notebook word by word.

The notebook is not thick, but the amount of information recorded is extremely valuable.

It turned out that this was a Phoenix Guard drill manual.

The Phoenix Guard is an elite legion under the Sun Dynasty, the most powerful empire in the long and long history of the elves.

When every elf begins military training, the first lesson he learns is archery.

Only when he has mastered the skills of using the bow can he become a member of the archer unit.

Only the best archers can be selected into the Phoenix Guard.

They are skilled in using longbows to shoot deadly and accurate arrows, so that each arrow can cripple or even kill the enemy, bringing death to the enemy from the air.

The Phoenix Guard's service time exceeds even the lifetimes of many humans.

Unfortunately, after the death of the last royal family of the Sun Dynasty, the country fell into civil strife in order to fight for the throne, and the Phoenix Guard was forced to join the civil war.

These noble warriors no longer shed arrows to defend their country and people.

Their bodies are stained with the blood of their compatriots.

Since then, the entire Sun Dynasty has never recovered and was subsequently annexed by other elven city-states, and finally disappeared in the long river of history.

"Bowmanship?"

The original copy of this letter was placed in a secret room where gold was stored, so it was obviously something valuable.

What Lin En didn't expect was that it was actually the advanced archery technique that had been lost among the elves.

Naturally, he would accept such a good opportunity.

The Demon Hunter's advantage lies not only in his swordsmanship, but also in his diverse fighting styles:
Signs, potions, alchemical bombs...

Archery can make up for the demon hunter's shortcomings in long-range attacks.

He had been thinking about whether he should buy a crossbow.

But now, since we have this Phoenix Guard Manual, it’s even better.

So Lin En simply didn't even sleep.

Start studying the Phoenix Guard training methods recorded in the back of the notebook.

This research took an entire night.

When the morning light was just beginning and Cassia was preparing breakfast for everyone, she discovered Lin En studying late into the night in the living room.

But she did not come to disturb the witcher.

Instead, he quietly placed a cup of hot tea and a plate of snacks on the table and left.

After a while, Lin En closed the notebook and called up the attribute panel.

But to his regret, he did not gain any new skills on the attribute panel.

Lynn was thoughtful.

"It seems that if I want to include it in the attribute panel, it's not enough to just read the training methods in the notebook. I have to practice them myself."

He wished he could pick up a bow and go to the yard to practice right now.

Unfortunately, there were no extra weapons in the villa, so he could only wait until nine o'clock in the morning when the blacksmith shops and weapon shops in the city opened for business before buying one.

Only then did Lin En notice the tea and snacks on the table, as well as the thin figure busy in the kitchen.

He ate the breakfast Cassia prepared for him, washed the dishes, and went to the stable to feed the horses.

Then he returned to the bedroom with another breakfast prepared by Cassia.

He spent another tender moment with Triss.

After the sorceress reluctantly returned to Vizima through the portal.

Only then did he catch up on a few hours of sleep in the still warm bed.

……

When it was ten o'clock in the morning, Lynn woke up on time.

I went to the market and bought a hunting bow and enough arrows.

While Geralt went to buy supplies for their journey, Lynn practiced in the courtyard.

A few hours later, Lynn's efforts finally paid off.

New Skill: Phoenix Bow (Beginner)

He allocated attribute points to the newly acquired skills without hesitation.

Attribute points: 12 (30%) → 4 (30%)

Phoenix Archery (Beginner) → Phoenix Archery (Master/Ultimate)
