Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

Chapter 108 George and the Dragon Hunting Commission

After entering the Fox Tavern, there were indeed few people in the tavern. Following Old York's prompt, Wayne immediately saw the man sitting at the back door.

He is in his forties, with short dark brown hair and a few scars on his face. He is not handsome and has a weathered look on his face. His clothes are very simple and his figure does not appear to be particularly strong.

If it weren't for the sword he carried on his back and the conspicuous vertical pupils of a demon hunter, no one would doubt him if he told others he was just a stronger farmer.

Wayne didn't have stage fright, he walked directly to sit opposite the man, shouted to Melissa who was napping on the counter:

"Melissa, give me a few bottles of the best cherry honey wine in the store on this table, some beef stew and game, and charge me the account of the gentleman opposite."

Melissa, who was sitting on the counter, immediately raised her head after hearing the call. When she saw that the person coming was Wayne, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

Although she was a little lame on her feet, she moved very quickly and quickly brought the food and wine that Wayne needed from the kitchen.

The man opposite Wayne, since Wayne sat down, looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze. It wasn't until Melissa placed a large amount of good wine and food between the two of them that he and Wayne looked at each other and asked in a deep voice:

"My friend, what do you mean by this? Well, which school of demon hunter are you?"

The reason why he asked this was because Wayne was not wearing any witcher equipment at this time. Instead, he was wearing a high-end silk shirt, with a short sword hanging on the belt around his waist. He was well-dressed and looked good. He was neat and tidy, and he did not wear the witcher's school badge around his neck.

Except for the fact that he is a demon hunter from his amber vertical pupils, he overall looks more like a young and promising boy.

Wayne did not answer immediately, but took two wine glasses, poured two glasses of the best cherry honey wine, then picked up one glass, gestured to the man opposite, drank it all in one gulp, and then said with a smile:

"I'm Wayne from the Wolf School, nice to meet you, friend."

"It's rare to meet a colleague, so I wanted to come over and get to know him."

The man was silent for a second or two, then picked up another glass of cherry honey wine, drank it in one gulp, and then said in a low voice:

"Griffin School, George, nice to meet you, Wayne from the Wolf School."

Everyone is a marginalized demon hunter, and the Wolf School has a pretty good reputation among demon hunters, so George is not very wary of him.

Of course, there is another reason. Wayne looks too young, has a sunny and cheerful temperament, a gentle smile, and takes the initiative to treat guests to dinner. It is difficult for people to believe that he is a bad person.

Seeing that there was only some black bread and ordinary beer in front of George, Wayne guessed that his life must be quite poor. This is normal. Demon hunters of the Griffin School are generally good people who only receive a small amount of compensation. .

So he didn't continue to be polite, just pushed his bread with beef and wild boar, placed it in front of him, and said with a smile:

"Eat some meat, George. Melissa's cooking is very good. Guests who have eaten here always remember her cooking."

Melissa, who had been secretly paying attention to Wayne, also had a happy smile on her face after hearing these words.

Although he was a little surprised by Wayne's enthusiasm, George was not too polite. He smiled and nodded in response, then picked up a large piece of beef, drank it with cherry honey wine, and ate it happily.

After taking a few bites, he asked with some confusion:

"By the way, Wayne, did you happen to meet me here, or did you come here specifically to find me?"

He actually already had the answer in his mind. Wayne came straight to him after he came in. It shouldn't be like he met him by chance.

Regarding this question, Wayne had no need to hide it and answered directly:

"I came here specifically to find you, George. It just so happens that the blacksmith shop you went to happened to be owned by my dwarf friend."

"I heard them chatting about the news about a demon hunter. I was very curious, so I came here to look for you."

After saying these two sentences, Wayne then asked supplementaryly:

"I heard that your next stop is Wellen? And you also received a commission to conquer the green dragon?"

George glanced at Wayne with some surprise. After thinking about it for a few seconds, he nodded and explained:

"Yes, you heard it from the blacksmith in the blacksmith shop."

"Actually, two years ago, I heard that there was a green dragon in Velen that was harassing local civilians. However, there was no accurate information at that time, and no one offered a bounty for the green dragon. Everyone thought it was just a rumor. So I didn’t take it too seriously.”

"And you know, we demon hunters generally don't hunt these dragons with advanced intelligence."

"Until last month, I passed by Wellen again and found that the local baron had placed a reward for the green dragon. Although it was only a pitiful three hundred orens, I heard that five farmers had died in It fell into the hands of the green dragon."

"That's why I accepted that commission."

Having said this, George picked up the jug, poured himself a glass of cherry honey wine, took a sip and said:

"However, my silver sword was damaged in a previous battle, and in the poor place of Wellen, there are no good blacksmiths who can repair our silver sword."

"I rushed to Vizima overnight and came to the big city just to find those skilled blacksmiths."

"Unfortunately, their prices are too expensive. All the money I spent was only enough to repair the silver sword. This was because their master blacksmith was willing to give me a discount, and I no longer had the money to repair the armor for combat use. "

Listening to George's nagging complaints, like a middle-aged frustrated old man, Wayne smiled, but he was convinced that the repair cost was too expensive, and the silver sword and armor were too delicate, almost Most witchers spend half of their compensation to repair their weapons and equipment.

It was also one of the reasons why he wanted to learn blacksmithing technology in the first place.

And according to his memory, when George of the Griffin School went to Wellen to slay the dragon, he was seriously injured in the chest because of a life-and-death struggle with the green dragon. Finally, when he was dying, he was stolen away by a thief. With the medicine and blueprints on his body, he died in a very depressing manner.

In the end, only some drawings of the Griffin School were left to the players.

Now when I heard him talk about this commission, not only was the reward pitifully small, but the enemy was also very powerful. There were indeed some griffin schools who used the strong to help the weak and had a very chivalrous style of conduct.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to eat and drink, he also chatted with George about the knowledge of the Witcher School, and exchanged the current status of their respective schools, which was considered to have gained a lot of knowledge.

Nowadays, the talents of the Griffin School are withering, and only two or three people are confirmed to be alive. Moreover, their base camp has been buried in heavy snow and turned into ruins in an avalanche planned by the warlocks.

Therefore, these remnants of the Griffin School do not gather together once a year like the Wolf School. They have been scattered all over the world, and it is not even clear whether other members are still alive.

This actually gave Wayne some ideas. The Griffin School is good at using various seals and heavy armor like knight's plate armor.

It is said that it is because of the hidden magic knowledge in the headquarters of the Griffin School that even the warlocks are quite coveted. That is why even though many attempts to borrow it were rejected, he cast a spell to trigger this avalanche, directly burying the great master of the Griffin School. Some of the main members contributed to the decline of the Griffin School.

And what he is best at is the use of magic seals. If he can have the opportunity to obtain the magical knowledge useful for demon hunters from the Griffin School, it should be able to improve his strength.

And even if you don't go to the Caer Siren Fortress in Powis to find that knowledge, the Griffin School George in front of you is also a very good teacher.

The question now is how to get George to hand over the knowledge he possesses about the Griffin School to him, a demon hunter from another school.
