Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

Under the leadership of Toruviel, Wayne and Geralt once again entered the elven ruins in the forest. After passing through a maze-like cave, they once again saw the non-human race residents living here.

However, what surprised him was that, unlike the situation when he left at the beginning of the year, the number of residents here had probably doubled or tripled. The children and the elderly had disappeared, and they no longer lived in tents randomly built with linen. Instead, it is a simple wooden house made from trees cut down from the forest outside.

The mental outlook of these people has also changed. They are no longer the weak, hesitant, fearful and helpless people we saw at the beginning of the year. Instead, they are full of energy, like moths flying into the flame, risking their lives for their ideals.

Feel free to ask, Wayne has nothing to hide.

He looked at the residents who were refreshed and asked Toluvel:

"You seem to have a lot more people, and they have changed a lot. Are these the inhuman races that were persecuted in Kaedwen?"

Upon hearing this, Toluvel turned her head and glanced at Geralt who was following the two of them. She did not answer immediately, but smoothed her shiny black braid.

Seeing this, Wayne was about to explain that Geralt was a trustworthy person, but the White Wolf rushed ahead of him and said:

"Ms. Elf Commander, may I ask, is the dwarf blacksmith Holden I saw last time still here? In the first half of the year, that guy won dozens of Orens from me. I will always remember this grudge."

Toluvel was silent for a second and replied softly:

"Yes, Witcher, he is now the quartermaster in the camp. He is in the cabin next to the big campfire. You should be able to find him there."

After hearing this answer, Geralt did not stop, directly greeted Wayne and Toluvel, and walked towards the position of Quartermaster Holden.

Wayne originally wanted to retain him, but after thinking about it, Geralt really didn't like to get involved in such things, so he gave up.

After seeing Geralt leave, Toluvel pondered for a few seconds and said to Wayne:

"The people here are all warriors who are willing to stay in the Kovind Kingdom and save our compatriots, and those old people and children have been sent to Baihua Valley by us and are in a safe environment."

"We have been trying to find ways to rescue more people. The advice you gave us is very good. We formed a special team and have been using bribery, purchase, and hiring to secretly rescue some captured inhumans. They were all rescued."

Wayne frowned when he heard this. In his memory, it seemed that not long after, the Elf King of Baihua Valley was wiped out by several northern kingdom armies due to a turmoil.

From then on, until the sorceress Francesca became the Queen of the Elves, the elves had no actual leader.

During this period, Baihua Valley could not be called a safe place.

Of course, at this time, he would not show his precognition ability in front of Toluvel, but nodded and said:

"That's not bad, but I remember that there should be many humans settled in Baihua Valley. The elves in Baihua Valley should only account for a small part, and most of them are forced to live in forests and mountains."

Toruviel nodded. Although the Valley of Flowers is known as the last settlement of the free elves, it is currently a territory controlled by King Demavi of the Kingdom of Aedirn.

This king kept migrating human residents into the forest of Baihua Valley, destroying the forest, cultivating fields, and building houses, just to squeeze out the living range of the free elves in the forest.

However, unlike the tamed elves and half-elves in the city, the free elves living in the Valley of Flowers have inherited the will of the ancient elf kingdom. They are the most rebellious and the strongest group of elves.

It was precisely because of their hard work that the elves did not completely lose the only territory in the northern continent, and also let the northern kings know that the elves were not powerless to fight back.

Toluvel seemed to trust Wayne quite a bit, and after some thought, she revealed a secret to Wayne.

"Wayne, actually we have already established a line with a big shot in Baihua Valley. It was she who helped us evacuate the elderly and children, and also sent elite soldiers from Baihua Valley to help us train soldiers and provide us with a living. supplies to strengthen our courage to resist the Kingdom of Coldway."

"The cores of the golems you left behind at the beginning of the year have been bought by that adult for a total of five hundred crowns. The price is 30% higher than what is on the market. And she expressed her gratitude to you for helping us clean up this ruins. grateful."

Having said this, Toluvi paused for a moment before continuing:

"That adult said that if you are willing, she would like to meet you in person. She is quite curious about a member of your race."

"But if you don't want to, she won't force it, because if it is fate, there will always be a day when you two meet."

Seeing that the female leader of the elves spoke so mysteriously, Wayne was quite dissatisfied. As someone who had read the original novel and played the game, he had probably already guessed who was helping them.

Although it is true that the identity of that person should be concealed and should not be exposed to avoid causing other disputes, but looking at the entire elves, there are only one or two people who can take advantage of it.

So, he pretended to be confused and asked:

"Toruvel, I think that no matter who you are going to meet, out of the most basic sincerity, you should tell me her identity first."

"Isn't it?"

Toluvel looked at Wayne's face. After hesitating for a second, he nodded and said:

"I can tell you her identity, but Wayne, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble to that lady, I hope you can keep it a secret and not tell anyone else."

Wayne immediately nodded with a serious expression and said:

"No problem, I promise you, Toruvel."

Toluvel nodded, no longer hiding anything, and said:

"As a witcher, you may have heard of her name."

"Ms. Francesca Findabe, she is a great noble among the elves and one of the five core members of the Council of the Warlock Brotherhood."

"She is currently the most powerful elven sorceress in the world, or she can be said to be the most powerful sorceress."

Sure enough, it's her, Wayne thought in his heart, but he still pretended to be a little surprised, and then pretended to think about it for more than ten seconds before saying:

"It's this lady! I have heard her name from other warlocks. It is said that she is the most beautiful lady in the world. She is very famous in the entire circle of warlocks."

Hearing what Wayne said, Toluvel frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed and said:

"Indeed, Wayne, Lady Francesca is definitely the most beautiful lady I have ever seen. She is an extremely rare pure-blooded elf in the world. Hundreds of years ago, she made various sacrifices for our elves. Such contribution, in the hearts of all tribesmen, she is definitely one of the most respected people."

Wayne nodded thoughtfully. Whether in the game or in the original book, there are actually very few descriptions of this elf sorceress.

The only thing that impressed me was that after Nilfgaard invaded, in order to allow the elves to maintain their independent status, she reached an agreement with Nilfgaard, making Baihua Valley an independent elf kingdom and becoming a vassal of Nilfgaard. country, and openly distanced itself from the relationship with the Scoia'tael, helped Nilfgaard's warlocks, captured Yennefer, and severely damaged the power of the Warlock Brotherhood.

In short, he is indeed an elf warlock who has put in a lot of effort for the continuation of the elves.

To be honest, Wayne still has a lot of respect for this kind of person. He can work hard for a great cause and persevere for hundreds of years, rather than for personal selfish desires, rights, and money. This is something that many mortals cannot do. Things have arrived.

But respect comes from respect. If you become enemies or friends with such people, you will feel quite a headache, because in their hearts, personal desires are always put aside, and they will always make sacrifices for the continuation of the race. .

However, demon hunters are now treated as a non-human race by all humans. They are even inferior to non-human races and can be treated as monsters.

And as a half-elf, it's not a bad thing for him to know such a powerful warlock of his own race.
