Chapter 254 It’s Love
After finishing all the dirty work, Lynn returned to his villa.

He took a good rest in the next few days.

I didn't care about the noise happening in the outside world.

Just let the syndicate do another thing for you.

This time it’s no longer about fighting, but about inquiring about a person.

The syndicate is very efficient, and this time the investigation produced results even faster than last time.

Lynn wrote a visiting letter and asked a member of the syndicate to take it to the address they had found.

That evening, an old butler with meticulously combed hair and elegantly dressed came to Lynn's villa with a visiting letter.

He came respectfully on behalf of his hostess, the Countess of Minole.

His hostess booked a private room in an upscale club in the upper town and invited Lin En to attend a meeting at noon the next day.

Lin En accepted the visiting letter, talked about some red tape that must be discussed between nobles, and sent the old butler away.

And at noon the next day, they arrived at the high-end club.

The old butler and two fully armed followers whom I met yesterday were guarding the door of the club.

The attendant was about to ask Lynn to hand over his weapon according to the rules, but the old housekeeper said that the mistress had allowed the witcher to bring weapons to see her.

Then several people came to the private room together, but only Lin En entered.

In a luxuriously decorated private room, a graceful middle-aged lady stood in front of the window with her back to the witcher.

There was a glass of red wine in his hand.

She looks to be in her early thirties and still has charm.

The lady first politely exchanged some pleasantries with Lin En, and then asked the doubts in her heart.

"Master Demon Hunter, you sent someone to my house to deliver a letter of visit and request a meeting. Is there something you want?"

"Countess, I heard you like to collect items related to witchers, such as swords, armor, badges... You're welcome to buy anything. Coincidentally, I have a steel sword that I can't use right now."

As he spoke, he took out a master-level Wolf School steel sword from his back.

This was made by Berengar according to the blueprint of a grandmaster-level steel sword, but his skills were not good enough and it was a bit lacking, so the steel sword he made could not reach the grandmaster level.

But it's also very good, reaching the standard of a master.

The sword would just gather dust in Tynesel's blacksmith shop, so Lynn simply took it.

And after he took out the sword,
"This sword..."

Minole drew out the steel sword and looked at the gleaming blade, his eyes suddenly lighting up.

Even though she is neither a demon hunter nor knows any swordsmanship.

But she could still tell the difference between a real sword and an ordinary one.

She had collected so many witcher items, but none of them could compare to the sword before her.

But then she had another question.

"Such a good weapon, you want to sell it to me? Don't you need it yourself?"

She knew that weapons were the second most important thing to a demon hunter after his life, and that weapons were even more important than armor.

Because weapons are more susceptible to wear and tear.

Who among those who make a living by swordsmanship can use a sword for decades?

The Countess glanced at Lynn.

Then a misunderstanding arose.

She thought the other party was selling his weapons because he was short of money.

Thinking of this, she took out a purse without hesitation and placed it on the table in front of Lin En.

"You should keep this sword. I know how dangerous the life of a demon hunter is. This money should be enough to support you for a while." "If you encounter any other difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me."

Countess Minole's actions immediately shocked Lynn.

In fact, the reason why he asked the syndicate to find out about the Countess and meet her was not because of "rich woman, hungry, food", but because she was actually his teacher...

He wanted to know whether the other party was still grateful for his teacher's friendship, just like in the game.

Unexpectedly, Countess Minole was so generous.

Lynn picked up the purse on the table, opened it and took a look.

There were at least dozens of crowns in it.

Teacher Vesemir really has a good eye.

"The Countess..."

He wanted to say that he was not short of money, but before he could finish his words he was interrupted by Countess de Minor.

She just smiled gently and comforted him.

"You don't have to feel embarrassed, just accept it. After all, everyone has difficulties sometimes."

She paused and then continued.

"If you're really embarrassed, consider it as payment for the information."

"Hmm? Provide information?"

"Yes, I... I want to ask you about someone. He is also a member of the Wolf School, just like you. He has a beard and is a bit bald. His name is Vesemir. Do you know him?"

After saying this, the Countess looked at Lynn expectantly.

"Of course, he is my teacher."

Hearing the witcher's affirmative answer, Countess Minole's face lit up with joy.

"Really? That's great. How is he doing now? Can you tell me?"

"That's fine. He still lives the life of a witcher as before, but every winter he returns to the castle and spends the winter with us."

At this point, Lin En pretended to be clueless and asked, "Countess, how do you know Teacher Vesemir?"

"This..." The Countess seemed to be wondering whether she should tell Lin En.

But she didn't think about it for too long before making a decision.

"I've never told anyone about this, but since you're his student, I thought I should tell you the whole story."

"It was the winter of 1234. A monster was haunting Oxenfurt. I remember it was a bat-winged demon. We posted a notice on the notice board, and soon the demon hunters arrived."

Lin En said, "Is that Teacher Vesemir?"

"Yes, he passed by my manor while tracking down the monster, and we fell in love at first sight. I wrote him a letter and asked the tutor to deliver it to him."

"He came in the night, and we spent many nights together, until one day my father heard a noise, and Vesemir hurried away, leaving behind his armor."

Although Lin En is actually very familiar with this matter.

But after listening to the person involved tell the whole story again, Lin En still felt...

What to say?

Vesemir indeed.

The Countess didn't look at Lynn's expression as she continued.

"That armor was my first collection, but it also marked the end of our love story. My father issued an arrest warrant and quickly married me off."

"I'm lucky. My husband died a few years ago and left me a large fortune, but I still... live with that memory."
