Witcher's Atelier

Chapter 524 Every day is full of hope



In the early morning of midwinter, the wind was biting.

Leaving the palace on the cliff, Victor walked onto the steep suspended pier, and the spectacular scenery made him feel refreshed.

And when he looked down at the harbor of Keldra from a high place, he could see a particularly huge long ship, which was larger than the other ships around, and stood out from the crowd at the berth.

It was the transport ship dispatched by the "World Peace Committee" to pick up the chairman, and it was also the flagship of this expedition: "Flying Hunan"...

Then he slightly shifted his sight, and in the morning light, seagulls were circling, and the port of Keldra was bustling. Countless fishermen were energetically conducting various transactions, and sailors were also carrying supplies to the ship in an endless stream, preparing to set sail.

In this situation, Victor couldn't help but feel a little sorry that he didn't have a camera at hand, and he was not good at painting, otherwise the image in front of him would be a world-famous painting.

Undoubtedly, after this battle, it is time to "make" a camera...

"Wick!!!"

The sudden shout interrupted the alchemist's little sentimental time. The voice came from his lively and enthusiastic sister Ciri.

The girl standing in the tower opposite the pier saw Victor appear, and couldn't wait to start a series of flashes and came to the witcher.

"Wow! Wick, you are really amazing. I didn't expect you to come so early. You are much better than before. Last night you and Caris played ping-pong until almost dawn. I thought you would sleep until noon!"

"..." Grass! A plant.

This sister is not only lively and enthusiastic, but also very annoying. She is good at using nonsense to destroy her brother's glorious image. If it were another existence that is not a sister but better than a sister, Angoulan, there would be nothing to consider and she would just punish with an iron fist.

It's just that the same evil happened to Ciri. Considering that they had not seen each other for many years and their relationship was "delicate", he resisted the urge to pinch her face to retaliate against her, and just rolled his eyes at her, "Welcome back, did you have fun this time?"

"Not bad! There were good and bad." She shrugged, and the two of them naturally walked down the mountain side by side.

In the past month, Ciri, Geralt of Rivia, and Yennefer of Vangerburg, the family of three, took advantage of the gap before the decisive battle to go on a family trip to repay kindness and revenge.

At the same time, Victor was doing alchemy and acting as the mascot of the World Peace Committee, so he naturally did not participate in it.

However, although he did not participate, it did not mean that he did not care about the other party. On the contrary, this family trip occupied a very important position in the original world line and was a plot node that could affect the finale.

For this reason, he repeatedly told Geralt before leaving: "Remember my prophecy. Ciri will remember her family's love for her through traveling and gain the courage to fight the white frost..."

...

"What does it mean that traveling has good and bad things?"

"It means literally. There are good things and bad things. Do you want to hear me complain?"

"Of course, I want to know everything about you."

"If you want to hear it, I'll tell you. Let me think about where to start... Well! Let's start with Skajor!" Ciri raised her hands and stretched her body curves.

"A few months ago, when I was being chased by the Wild Hunt, I fainted near Lovtoen on Indalsfair Island and met a family that was eager to help me. However, that night, the Wild Hunt chased and attacked me."

"Lovtoen!?" Victor frowned. "I remember that place. I went there a few years ago. I remember that the hot springs there were great. You can imagine the tragedy of being attacked by the Wild Hunt. This is not an isolated case. Heatherton in Velen was attacked and the whole village was killed."

"Indeed, the hot springs there are very good. Fortunately, the villagers of Skellige are stronger and more aggressive than those of Velen. They fought bravely. Although many people died, they finally held on until the Wild Hunt retreated."

"It's a blessing in disguise. So what role does Mr. Skegjo play in the story?"

"The youngest son of that enthusiastic family, a young man who loves me, covered my escape when the Wild Hunt attacked, but was considered to have fled the battle. So in order to restore his reputation, he took the initiative to go out to sea to challenge the whales not long ago."

"..., poor child, falling in love with someone you shouldn't love. From your tone, the result of his going out to sea was not very good?"

"Nonsense, what do you mean by someone you shouldn't love? I am very charming. But the result was indeed not good, he didn't come back from the sea.

We had a quarrel with the locals and almost fought, but we cleared Skajor's reputation and built a tomb for him.

Speaking of this, I have to thank your friend Swanny in particular. Thanks to her help in mediation, our communication with the villagers was much smoother, and she also gave me a lot of comfort."

What kind of comfort is a lot of comfort?

Doubts flashed through his mind, but Victor didn't ask. Adults know that some problems cannot be pursued.

"I see. Thanks to the brave Lady Swani. I still remember the hammer in her hand. Even Angouleme couldn't beat her.

Don't be too sad about Skaiju.

Look at the bright side. According to the legend of the islands, he will be resurrected from the dead and fight alongside us in the Doomsday War in a few days!"

"I hope so. ...Then I heard that you tied up Avallac'h?" Ciri's expression was very subtle when she spoke, with absurdity, surprise, but more of amusement.

Victor blinked, "Hey! Don't say it so harshly. What do you mean by tied up? That's called house arrest."

"Okay! House arrest is house arrest. Then why did you put him under house arrest? Isn't he one of us?"

"Think too much! Avallac'h only stands on his side. We can't afford to marry the noble Ain El.

There is no reason to put him under house arrest. I'm just tired of his arrogant attitude. He hangs around all day. When we are about to go to war with the Wild Hunt, this unstable factor is controlled neatly.

Since I helped you before, I didn't make it difficult for him. I provided him with good food and drink.

Why, do you want to plead for him?"

"That's not necessary. I'm annoyed with Avallac'h now. It's good to make him suffer a little."

"Hey! Didn't you say that last month? I reminded you to be more careful of that guy, and you still think I slandered you! You said I was too jealous!"

With her green eyes wide open, Ciri glared at Victor fiercely, "Stop talking nonsense! As you always say, things change with time!

I We found a place where he was doing research, and then we knew that Avallac'h had been trying to use the blood of the elders since my ancestor Laura Doron. Looking at those research and pedigree charts, I felt that the bastard treated me as a guinea pig and a breeding tool, and I was very unhappy. "

"Oh, a secret research room? It sounds really unpleasant, so how did you do it, smash it on the spot?"

Holding Victor's hand, Ciri's mouth curled up, "Hehe~ You are worthy of being my dearest brother, and your ideas are the same as ours. That day, Geralt and I smashed the whole laboratory into a mess! We also set fire to the research materials! Hum ha ha ha! When he goes back and sees the miserable situation, he will definitely be heartbroken!"

Staring at her proud and hearty smile, Victor smiled with satisfaction. Ciri is a girl who likes to laugh and is suitable for laughing.

This is good, I have the determination and ability to protect her smile.
