Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 34 The Entrustment Completed

Chapter 34 The Entrustment Completed
In the afternoon, Wayne found the elf again.

"Has the ruins been explored?"

"Yes, except for the last building locked by the metal gate, I have checked all the other areas. There will be no more monsters emerging from the ground to attack you."

"As for that building, I speculate that it is a treasure house, and there should be a disabled magic node in it, which does not pose a threat for the time being."

"But that door is too strong. I tried many methods, but I couldn't open it. Maybe it's been too long, and the internal facilities may have been damaged."

Things are indeed as Wayne said, the gate of the treasure house is too strong, and it has been processed by magic, and ordinary people cannot open the gate at all.

Even if there is any problem inside, it is estimated that it will only be locked in the treasure house, and nothing can be done.

Hearing Wayne's explanation, Toruwell nodded in amazement, she was silent for a few seconds, and then said:
"Thank you Wayne, you did us a great favor."

"Wait a minute, I will take someone to patrol the ruins once. If the last building really cannot be opened, then this commission will be considered complete."

Having said that, Toruwell raised his head, looked into Wayne's eyes, and said:
"What's next? Where are you going, will you stay in the Kaedwen Kingdom?"

Wayne thought for a while, and felt that there was nothing worth hiding, so he spread his hands and said:
"I'm not sure, Toruville."

"Geralt's injury is almost healed. Next, we are going to leave Kaedwen Kingdom as soon as possible."

"As you know, the residents here don't welcome non-human races and demon hunters at all."

"We are going to go along the Pontal River to visit the Kingdom of Temeria first, and then we have to see where there is a commission."

Toruwell sighed after hearing the words, hesitated for a moment, then reached out and touched Wayne's face.

During this period of getting along, she also understood how much potential the half-elf boy in front of her had, and she was much better than many of her own race in terms of wisdom and insight.

As a long-lived race, it is something to be proud of to be able to become a master of swordsmanship when you are a teenager.

What's more, the demon hunter not only has superb swordsmanship and stronger physique than ordinary people, but also can use some spells, which is stronger than ordinary swordsmanship masters. In her heart, she even fits the definition of a strong man better than those weak spellcasters.

She liked the feeling of getting along with Wayne very much, and couldn't help asking again:

"Are you really not considering staying here, Wayne?"

"If it were you, you would definitely be able to bring more hope to our elves."

"I need your help too."

Hearing this, Wayne looked into the female elf's eyes, shook his head slightly, and did not speak.

Toruwell withdrew her hand helplessly and said:

"Well then, Wayne, you have your own way, and I won't force you."

"The reward for this entrustment should be settled according to what we agreed before, [-] ducats, or a quarter of the loot in the ruins."

"If you choose the former, I can make it up for you now."

"And if you choose the latter, the value should be higher, but those spoils will take time to process, and we don't know the specific value, so your reward will be delayed for a while."

"But if you trust me, I will send you the money after I finish processing."

Wayne nodded. It wasn't that Toruwell was playing any tricks. He had personally explored the entire ruins, and he knew exactly what trophies were there.

Time is the most powerful weapon. Countless powerful warriors, spellcasters or kings have all turned into dust in front of it.

Perhaps this relic was invaluable thousands of years ago and possessed countless wealth, but now, except for some precious metals that are difficult to be corroded and oxidized, everything else no longer exists and has become waste.

And it will definitely take a certain amount of time to transform these inheritances into wealth that can be used.

Wayne waved his hand and said to the female elf:

"Don't be so troublesome, Toruville, I've chosen [-] ducats."

"By the way, there is one more thing I wonder if I can trouble you?"

Hearing that Wayne asked for something, Toluwell did not refuse, and said with a slightly serious expression:

"What? If it can be done, I won't refuse?"

Wayne waved his fingers, signaling the female elf not to be so serious, and said with a smile:
"It's just a small thing, don't be nervous."

"I just want to know if you know elf warlocks. The loot here is of great historical value. Maybe you can sell them to elf warlocks for a higher salary."

"And if you know warlocks, you can also help me sell those gargoyle hearts to them."

"I remember that this thing seems to be quite popular in the circle of warlocks."

The female elf hesitated for a few seconds when she heard the words. She originally promised the lord that she could not tell others the news casually, but out of trust in Wayne, she still said:
"I can try to help, Wayne."

"I know a lady who is a powerful spellcaster. The reason why I and other residents can stay in this ruins is because of her help."

"If that lady is interested, I will sell your gargoyle heart to her. At that time, I will find a way to get the money transferred to you."

"No, no, you don't need to find someone to deliver it." Wayne quickly waved his hand.

"We demon hunters need to accept commissions everywhere, and I don't even know which country I will go to stay in."

He thought for a while and said directly:
"Before this winter, I will return to Kaedwen. If you are still here at that time, then transfer the money to me."

………………

After completing this expert-level commission, Wayne was in a very happy mood. Geralt's injuries were basically healed, and he was able to carry out various activities freely.

According to the agreement before departure, Wayne generously shared the reward of 750 ducats with him, [-] ducats each, in exchange for White Wolf's closer attitude towards him.

This is a huge sum of money, even enough to last two people for a whole year if they just eat and drink.

After completing the commission, he did not leave in a hurry, but stayed in the camp for another two days, and after confirming that the ruins were really safe, he solemnly bid farewell to the first friend he made, Toluwell.

The system also has an explanation about the dimensional crack left by the place of magic.

If this world is a human being, then this dimensional rift.It can only be regarded as an insignificant small wound, not even a skin trauma.

Unless someone uses rituals or magic to guide it, it is impossible for a powerful life from another world to come to this world through this wound.

And during these two days, Wayne was not idle either. He pulled his black mare, which he named Lucifer, and found the female elf again, asking for her guidance.

Toruwell agreed to the request very enthusiastically, and together with Wayne, they rode a mare in the forest to practice riding.

Wayne's talent for sports is quite good, and he finally succeeded. Before saying goodbye, he learned the basics of riding and also acquired a subsidiary skill called riding.

Riding LV1: Compatibility with the mount +1.

On the day of the real parting, Wayne and Geralt led their respective mounts and carried their luggage, and stood at the exit of the cave, saying goodbye to Toruville and several acquaintances they had met in the camp during this period.

The female elf leader stepped forward to hug Wayne, left a soft parting kiss on his side face, and gave him a well-prepared gift.

It was an exquisite longbow made of special wood, with the upper and lower ends adding up to a length of nearly eighty centimeters.

There are some inscriptions of the elves engraved on the body of the bow. The bow string is made of animal leather of an unknown species, which is very tough.

This was a gift specially given to Wayne after hearing that Wayne wanted to learn archery.

At the same time, for the current elves, bows and arrows are also their most powerful weapon. Perhaps, this is also pinned on Luwell's hidden hope. She hopes that Wayne will not forget his blood and help more elves.

And there is always a banquet. After the two parties bid farewell friendly, the two witchers, Wayne and Geralt, still brought their generous rewards and gifts from their friends, and disappeared into the forest under the watchful eyes of everyone.
