Chapter 323: Bear School Witcher
The war in Aedirn continued, and after a short and insincere confrontation and negotiation, the armies of both sides soon entered into a tragic slaughter again.
Although there was the protection of solid city walls, the offensive of Nilfgaard's black-clad army was quite fierce. King Demavend tried his best to command the army to fight bravely, and even walked onto the city wall himself to guard his city, but still suffered heavy casualties and fell into an absolute disadvantage.
If it weren't for the fact that the Kingdom of Aedirn had been expanding its military power in the past few years, plotting the territory of the Kingdom of Kaedwen, and had a part of idle troops stationed near the capital.
Perhaps this time, they fundamentally could not resist the attack of the Nilfgaardian army, would be taken away in one wave, and the country would be destroyed within a month.
However, these war situations had nothing to do with Wayne.
After dealing with the matters of Princess Pavetta and the baby girl who was barely considered an accidental child, he left the Kingdom of Cintra and, under the arrangement of King Eist, took a boat to the Skellige Isles.
Crach, the Sea Boar who had already married, treated him very enthusiastically. This guy failed to win the heart of Princess Pavetta, was depressed for a few months after returning home, soon married a beautiful wife through political marriage, and now had two children, both a son and a daughter.
Crach was quite impressed by Wayne's drinking capacity and strength. On the day he welcomed him, the patriarch of the an Craite clan not only held a grand banquet, invited members of several big families in Skellige to welcome Wayne's arrival, but also took out a lot of fine wine and had a drunken time with everyone at the banquet.
However, the men of Skellige still underestimated Wayne's drinking capacity.
Although the warriors of these big families could drink quite well and were considered heroes in drinking among ordinary people, letting them compete in drinking capacity with the witcher Wayne, whose physical fitness was almost comparable to Captain America, still seemed a bit overestimating their capabilities.
After more than a dozen barrels of fine wine, all the men at the entire banquet were drunk and paralyzed on the ground.
And after drinking down ten men who claimed to be the best drinkers in Skellige in a row, Wayne was not half-drunk, but his stomach was really unable to hold it anymore because he drank too much wine.
But even so, his powerful drinking capacity made the Skellige people at the banquet cheer for him.
Two tall and beautiful Skellige beauties took the initiative to step forward, helped him into the bedroom, and did not leave after helping him undress, and soon the rhythm of joy sounded in the room.
Until the next afternoon, when the refreshed Wayne walked out of the room, a servant took him back to the hall of the an Craite clan.
In that hall with a rough and atmospheric decoration style, Crach, who had already sobered up, was sitting in the main seat, talking about something with a tall and sturdy man like a bear.
Seeing Wayne walk into the hall, Crach turned his head to look at him, first laughed, and then said loudly:
"Wayne, my friend, now the entire Skellige Isles knows that the witcher Wayne is the man who can drink the most in the entire North."
"Your drinking capacity shocked the entire Skellige. The two girls who went to bed with you yesterday called for a whole night. It seems that your bed skills are as fascinating to women as your drinking capacity!"
The Skellige people spoke quite straightforwardly. Such straightforward and explicit words made Wayne a bit unsure of how to respond.
He sincerely thanked Crach for his warm hospitality, but when his gaze looked at the man as strong as a bear in the hall, the strong man also looked over.
After seeing the man's appearance clearly, the corners of Wayne's mouth revealed a trace of a smile.
Sparse crew cut, beard, fierce appearance, heavy metal armor on his body, and iconic vertical pupils and the bear-shaped medallion on his chest.
A Bear School witcher he had never met before.
Wayne and the man looked at each other, and before he could speak, Crach introduced:
"Wayne, my friend, this is the Bear School witcher master, Mr. Ned."
"He once helped our an Craite clan eliminate the harpies that were causing trouble on the coastline, allowing our crew to be spared from the harm of monsters, and is a warrior with exquisite swordsmanship."
"I have prepared a quiet room for you. If you have anything you want to chat about, you can go to that room, and no one will disturb you."
Upon hearing this, Wayne first expressed his gratitude for Crach's thoughtful arrangement, then looked at the Bear School witcher named Ned, looked at each other for a few times, and then said: "Hello, Mr. Ned." "I am a witcher from the Wolf School, Wayne, currently the manager of the new Witcher Order."
Hearing Wayne claim to be a Wolf School witcher, Ned's expression did not fluctuate at all, as if he didn't care about his own kind at all.
However, when Wayne mentioned that he was the manager of the new Witcher Order, this strong Bear School witcher raised his eyebrows, making a scar on his face look quite ferocious.
He looked at Wayne carefully with quite cold eyes before asking: "Witcher Order?"
"Is there still a Witcher Order now? I remember that the Witcher Order had already disbanded more than two hundred years ago."
"I have heard of the Wolf School, Geralt of Rivia and your Grand Master Vesemir, but I have never heard of your reputation."
"So, what is your purpose in looking for us Bear School people?"
Facing Ned's questioning tone, Wayne's expression did not have any discomfort. He smiled and nodded to Crach, then calmly said to the witcher Ned:
"Mr. Ned."
"Vesemir is my teacher. Although I have only been a witcher for less than six years, I am undoubtedly the most powerful witcher in this era."
"Witchers from the Wolf School, Griffin School, Viper School, and Cat School have all joined the new Witcher Order, and I became the manager of the Order after being recognized by everyone."
"However, I heard that the Bear School pays attention to doing things for money and does not mix personal feelings."
"So you don't need to care about what my identity is, nor do you need to care about whether what I said is a lie."
"I am preparing to talk to you Bear School witchers about a deal, which is absolutely the commission with the most generous reward you have ever come into contact with."
"Why don't we go to the room arranged by Mr. Crach and have a good chat."
"No matter whether you agree or not in the end, you have no loss, right?"
The Bear School's Ned was slightly surprised upon hearing this. For a witcher who had lived for over a hundred years, it was the first time he had seen a young witcher speak wildly in front of him, calling himself the most powerful witcher of the contemporary era.
As for the matter of other schools joining the Witcher Order that Wayne mentioned, Ned did not believe it very much, thinking that the other party was just exaggerating.
Although the Bear School had rarely traveled in the Northern Kingdoms over the years, they still paid attention to the news of witcher peers.
There was no doubt that since the original Witcher Order disbanded, witchers of any school had gradually declined, and some schools had not heard any news for decades.
He did not believe that there was anyone now who could organize so many witcher schools and persuade them to establish a Witcher Order together.
With the current lonely and withered situation of witchers, whether it was the so-called new Witcher Order or the so-called most powerful witcher, what was there to be proud of?
However, as a Bear School witcher, Ned had been used to doing things for money for many years. Except for not taking those murder commissions, he was not much different from ordinary mercenaries.
Since the other party wanted to talk about business, then as he said, listening to it would not be a loss. Not to mention it was introduced by the patriarch of the most powerful an Craite clan in Skellige. As long as he was not a fool, he would give the other party face.
So, after just considering for a few seconds, Ned followed Wayne and walked into the room arranged by Crach.
