"Traveler, why not rest here for a night?"

Thanking John for providing the family with venison, Christide invited John to stay for a night.

She is a kind woman, otherwise she would not have adopted Xirui as her adopted daughter.

John was about to refuse when he saw Polo staring in one direction.

He looked over and saw freshly pulled carrots in the stable of the house.

"Okay, I will pay." John pointed to the radishes and said, "I will pay one gold coin to buy those radishes."

Just as Christide was about to refuse, John put the gold coin down.

He put the turnip in front of Polo.

Polo ate with a crunching sound.

Christide's son came out and was also wary when he saw John carrying a sword.

After Christide told him about John's deeds, he went to ask Xi Rui in disbelief.

"Did he really kill those three strange cats?"

Ciri nodded, and after receiving the answer, her son was full of admiration for John.

He wanted to touch John's sword, but John advised him not to.

He had no choice but to give up.

Christide paired the venison with red wine and made it delicious.

The aroma was so appetizing that even Xirui hadn't tasted such delicious food for many days.

Christide felt very proud watching the children wolf down the food.

John came in after washing his face outside. He washed away the dust from sleeping in the open air during this period of time, revealing a young face.

The three people in the family were a little stunned.

John's calmness often makes people forget his age.

"How old are you?" Xirui couldn't help asking.

"Fifteen." After wiping his hands, John picked up a piece of venison with his fork and put it into his mouth.

Christydai subconsciously looked at her son, who was about the same age as her.

John is really not acting like a normal person.

Chewing on the venison, John mumbled, "I'll pay for this dinner."

Xi Rui found it very strange that every word John said was about fees and transactions.

When the son heard that there was money, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Do you need a horse wash?"

"That's a good idea," John chuckled, "If I'm satisfied with your workmanship, I don't mind paying you."

Christy's husband was a businessman, and her son had inherited his father's bloodline very well.

He immediately ate the venison in a hurry and ran to the stable to prepare tools for washing the horse.

Polo was served, and washed off the dust on his body, snorting comfortably.

Originally, the son had some complaints about his mother bringing back an adopted daughter of unknown origin. After eating venison, he disappeared.

He didn't hate Xi Rui, he just hated adding to the burden of the family.

After John finished his venison dinner, he wiped the corners of his mouth and habitually took out a gold coin from his handbag and put it down.

Christine felt helpless, and she asked John to take the gold coins back.

The venison was given by John, and I just turned it into food.

Xi Rui also felt more curious about John, who was different from everyone else she knew.

At this time, the son who was brushing the horse was also working hard to clean Polo.

A fireball like a meteor streaked across the sky and hit a fortress in the distance.

The whole family was stunned and they looked up.

Christide whispered softly, "It's Nilfgaard."

That fireball was the first signal.

This indicates that the war is about to begin.

John was watching the fireball falling when suddenly the silver sword vibrated slightly.

He drew out his silver sword and saw the runes on it light up and flicker.

"War?" he mused.

Xirui noticed this scene, and asked mysteriously, "Are you leaving?"

John was stunned, then nodded.

He had a hunch that this time the war might be the time for him to leave.

Putting the silver sword away, John took out a bag from his briefcase.

Inside was a bag heavy with gold coins, which he placed on the table.

If he guessed correctly, these things could not be taken back.

It is better to let it stay with this family than to let it disappear.

Christine was startled by his actions, and the gold coins frightened the woman.

"Let's just consider it fate." He snapped his fingers, and Polo ran out of the stable, and his son couldn't stop him.

Raising his hand and putting it on, Polo's wet body quickly dried, and John got on the horse.

When he saw Ciri, he always felt that this girl was special.

Throwing a ring out of the handbag, John smiled at her and said, "Use this to protect yourself and your family."

Having said this, he turned around and rode away on his horse.

Xirui subconsciously caught the ring and chased after John, shouting, "Yadani!"

Unfortunately, John had already left, which made Xi Rui feel lost.

...

Chapter 407 I Participated in the War

As he was leaving, John saw the white wolf again.

He understood that his next trials would be completed on that battlefield.

Polo pawed the ground with his hooves in a somewhat uneasi manner.

Animals are more gifted at detecting danger than humans. Even Polo was afraid. That war must have been cruel.

Use mind magic to calm Polo.

Another fireball streaked across the sky, and John followed its path.

Soon, he saw the flying fireball being bounced away by a force before falling into the pass.

It was the wizard who took action.

The fluctuations of magic were clearly visible to John.

"A battle led by wizards."

John rode towards the lonely city.

The city had been sleeping, but now it was like boiling water. The noisy and chaotic sound inside startled John.

"No troops?" The panicked voice surprised him. There were no troops stationed there.

There were people inside, but at most they were some militiamen who had experienced fighting with swords.

It is far from meeting the requirements of the army.

Want to use this camp to defend against the attack of Nilfgaard's Black Army?

John recalled the black army he saw, which numbered at least tens of thousands of people.

The city walls here are not high, on the contrary they look very old.

John arrived here and was discovered by a wizard.

"who?"

The chestnut-haired witch spotted John and approached him with a wary look.

John slowly turned his head and greeted the person who came: "Hello."

"Who are you?" The red-haired witch did not stop her guard because of John's words.

John had no choice but to say, "I'm not from Nilfgaard, but I'm here to check out the situation here."

"Are you a spy?"

"No, I'm a traveler." John waved his hands.

The chestnut-haired witch remained skeptical.

Just then, a fireball flew towards this side.

There was a terrible magical power contained in it, which made the chestnut-haired witch's expression change.

Someone in the fortress took action. It was a black-haired witch.

The black-haired witch raised her hands high and deflected the falling fireball.

The impact caused by the fireball explosion caused some debris to fly towards the two.

The chestnut-haired witch subconsciously raised her hands in defense.

The rubble was fixed in the air.

She looked at her hands and realized that she had not used any magic.

She looked up and saw John holding a magic wand in his hand, and all the stones were flung away.

"Are you a wizard?" The witch was stunned at first, then she asked happily: "Are you here to help us?"

"Uh……"

John didn't know either, after all, he came here for a trial.

Looking sideways, the figure of the white wolf flashed by on the city wall, as if confirming his camp.

"You could say that," John said vaguely.

But this also made people happy. The chestnut-haired witch said: "My name is Triss, and you are welcome to join the defense battle."

"John." John did not say the name Yadani.

Because the witchers remained neutral, John didn't want to break the rules.

You are looking for the witcher Yadani, what does it have to do with me, the wizard John?

Although she had never seen John in the Brotherhood, Triss was still happy.

She led John inside the city walls.

As for why she was not afraid that John was sent by Nilfgaard, it was because of John's help just now that she dispelled some of the fear.

It can be seen here that the current witch is still a little immature.

John walked into the city wall and the people inside were awakened.

Some were running for their lives, while others were frantically preparing things.

"Are they villagers?" John guessed their identities when he saw that these people had hardly any decent armor on them.

"Yes, it will take some time for the army to arrive. We didn't expect Nilfgaard to arrive so quickly."

This time, the speed of Nilfgaard's march was beyond their expectations.
