The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"It should be... temporarily gone."

"Great." Zoltan slapped his hands. "Let's go to the old Naracourt for a drink, and then wait until eight o'clock. I must admit that Dandreen may be criticized in other ways, but his performance is definitely worth watching. Zelin, what do you think? Zelin ?"

"...Oh?" Ze Lin, who was standing by the door window looking out, turned his head. "What are you talking about?"

Zoltan repeated his thoughts again.

"I'm afraid... I wish you happiness, I may go elsewhere in a while." Zelin scratched the back of his head, and he felt an uncomfortable tingling sensation in his back. "If I can, I will meet Vereirad first, maybe he can explain some of the documents issued by the city hall some time ago."

"It's another boring investigation, but your investigation is definitely useful, but you can't stretch yourself too close all day long." Zoltan stretched out a finger. "I may be nagging, but your search for the murderer day and night will only make you vulnerable and make the enemy more alert. As we dwarves often say, you can never live in a room full of cats. Caught a mouse in it."

"Uh...maybe what you said makes sense." Zelin moved his shoulders.

Since meeting Vincent, Zelin has been trying to figure out the whereabouts of the professor. The Salamander Gang seemed to disappear suddenly, disappearing completely. The demon hunter found the black merchant who used to buy anesthetic powder from the Salamander Gang, but he could not contact the Salamander Gang. The demon hunter and Vincent turned the temple area upside down, but could not find any valuable clues. Until Francesca came to Vizima and obtained a pass to enter the trade zone for Zelin, his investigation scope expanded from the temple area and the swamp area to the entire Vizima.

"Maybe our investigative actions were so great that the salamanders helped all of them. Maybe we can relax a little bit and make them think we have given up. By that time, if they make any actions, they will expose their flaws."

"That's right." Zoltan nodded. "Let's go for a drink, maybe Dandrine is writing his new poems while drinking."

"Yes, it just happens that we have nothing to do today. Yavin, stay at home obediently, and I will bring you some sweets when I come back."

"I'll be good, Geralt." Yavin nodded vigorously.

"No, you can put the candy thing aside, Geralt." Triss' voice came from the top of the stairs, and the sorcerer stepped down the steps. "Yavin, go read a book, I will check your study later, Geralt, you have something to do today."

"What?"

"Go to the house of that woman named Shani." Triss stretched out her hand and pointed at Geralt. "Tell her that Yavin will live with me, and so will you."

"...Triss."

"What's the matter?"

"I would rather face a female monster..."

"What are you talking about?" Triss frowned slightly, and a ray of flame flashed in the eyes of the red-haired female warlock. Is the real flame.

"No, I'm going now." Geralt sighed heavily and patted Zoltan. "Let's go, Zoltan."

Zoltan shut his mouth tightly and walked out of Triss' mansion with Geralt. Zelin wanted to rub his forehead, but he couldn't raise his hand, he felt something grabbing his arm. He opened his eyes and saw Francesca's gentle smile, and the elf took her arm.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Triss. I look forward to seeing you at the banquet. Your cider is great."

"Me too, Enid. We will talk again when we have a chance."

Geralt walked out of Triss' mansion on the front foot, and Zellin was then taken out by Francesca, clasping his arms tightly. Unlike the past, this time Francesca did not choose to disguise, but entered Vizima directly as an elf.

"You know, my dear, I don't agree with human practices in many ways, but maybe I should learn Triss?" Enid smiled and strolled with Zelin on the blue-gray paved streets of the trade zone. . "Don't you think that our elves are a tolerant, kind and friendly race?"

"Enid..."

"Princess Yata has arranged a house corresponding to the identity for each guest. Before we go back, I will let a reliable person search for it to see if there is a secret passage for surveillance. Tomorrow, you can ask your comrade-in-arms to come over. , I will meet with her and have a chat. Gnaiya will go with me, but she seems to have encountered something and said she will come over one day later."

"I will tell Maria."

"My dear, there is something, I hope you can tell me the truth, look into my eyes."

"Definitely."

The pupils of the demon hunter met the beautiful, emerald eyes of the elf.

"Have you ever slept with Maria?" Francesca asked without changing her face.

"No."

"Will she be beautiful enough to make you think?"

"Yes."

"...You didn't lie?" The elf raised his eyebrows in surprise. "You know I'm using mind reading now, right?"

"No, you didn't, because my badge didn't respond in any way." Zelin made a helpless expression. "You know me, Enid, I will not hide anything from you, and I am a normal demon hunter. If I answer no, I don't believe it myself."

"Ah, you are really straightforward and sad~ but I will change your mind." Francesca chuckled lightly, and then she showed a mysterious expression. "Maybe, before we go back, I can let you experience another more attractive and beautiful."

"Your attraction to me is always fatal." Zelin took a quick breath. "Even without your magic perfume."

"Oh! I remember this sentence, if you let me know that you will say the same to other women in the future, I will throw you into the river to calm down. But before that, we have other things to discuss Now. Five days ago, did you dare to ignore my Telescope newsletter?!"

The first thousand five hundred and eighty-three chapters preparation before the banquet

Most of the guests who want to attend the banquet have already come to Vizima.

But like the Salamander Gang, the activities of the Squirrel Party outside the city seem to be more frequent, which makes the city garrison even more nervous. If the Squirrel Party chooses to start attacking pedestrians at this time, Princess Atha will definitely blame it again. They, the last time the princess, because of the establishment of the knights, drove the city guard team out of his headquarters and asked them to move to a place close to the dungeon. If this happens again at the banquet, the next time They might really want to live in the dungeon.

People in the carriage on the road urged the coachman to enter a safe city wall before sunset. The traces left by the ghost dog attack added to the anxiety in people’s hearts. The monster has not yet put away its fangs, and sometimes the guards on the wall. You can still notice the weird green fire looming in the wild forest. Every evening, you can see horse-drawn carriages passing through Maribo Gate and entering the trading zone. Perhaps only the towering city walls and heavily armed knights and soldiers can bring a rare sense of security at night. Of course, the premise of all this is that the guests who enter the city or the businessmen who want to take this opportunity to find opportunities do not know what is in Vizima City.

But not everyone has such concerns.

"It seems we can't get under the city wall before the sunset gate closes." Gnaiya opened the curtain of the carriage window and looked at the sunset slowly falling below the horizon. In the shadow of the setting sun, the outline of the city of Vizima, like a slender shadow, lay across the horizon. "I'm looking for a suitable place to rest nearby. Tomorrow morning, we will go to meet them in the city again."

"No problem." Opposite the carriage, Yusefka looked at the poplar trees on both sides of the road with a slight worry. The twilight is gradually covering the woods, casting a shadow over the woodland. "I really trouble you, help send me here."

"It's nothing, anyway, we are going to Vizima." Longyi looked out the window, and the carriage was bumped from time to time. When it drove through the uneven dirt road, the bumps were more obvious, "Is the elf invited you? She didn't go with you. I remember she took almost ten people with her everywhere."

Originally, Gnaiya would also be in the group, but after hearing that Yusevka also had plans to go to Vizima, she told Francesca that she had other things and would come back to Vizima one day later. Gemma go. In this regard, Francesca readily promised. But the elf definitely didn't know what the dragonborn was talking about, of course, she didn't ask.

"No, it's my decision to come to Vizima." Yusevka chuckled lightly, and she tucked the tips of her sideburns behind her ears. "When in Osenfurt, a medical student named Xia Ni helped take care of my sister. A month ago, I heard that Ms. Xia Ni had completed her studies and was introduced to Rebioda in Vizima. I was an intern in the hospital, so I decided to come here and thank her in person. After Vizima, I won’t go to see Zelin and Ms. Elf."

"Hey?"

"You are joking, Gnaiya, how could I be at the banquet?" Yusevka gave a dry smile. "That's not where I should go, I'm not suitable there. Tomorrow, I will go to Vizima's shop to buy some gifts. After the visit is over, I will wait for your banquet to end, and then we can go back together."

"Uh... I thought you were going to the banquet with Zelin."

"Hehe, you overestimate me too much. I'm clumsy. If I go to the banquet, I will definitely mess things up." The doctor shook his head. "If you can, you can tell him for me that you must be careful at the banquet and don't be fooled by anyone."

"I will." Gnaiya responded.

The curtain of the carriage swayed, and the honey-colored twilight sprinkled in from time to time along the gap, and the carriage fell into silence for a while, leaving only the uncomfortable sound of axle friction.

"Doctor?"

"What's the matter?"

"You, don't you, aren't you so worried?"

"What are you worried about?" Yusevka opened a book introducing Vizima, and found the section about local shopping streets and specialties in the catalog. "What is there to worry about?"
