The three of them stayed in the guest room upstairs of the tavern for one night, and the previous night of tossing and turning all night even the witcher needed time to recover, and after a good night's sleep, the three of them left Maple Leaf Village in good spirits.

It was obviously much easier to ride on a horse than on foot, and with a full night's rest, Jurania said more. "Frazier, where are you going next? ”

Fraser didn't want to pay attention to her, but he compromised considering that he might meet various witchers in the future. "I will continue to look for places where someone is being drained of mental power, and then stop the development of things. ”

Amos pulled a badge out of his bosom and handed it to Frazier. "This is my unique badge in the Witcher's Guild, seeing it is like seeing me, since what we do has something in common, then you will definitely meet the Witcher again in the future, no matter who it is, show them this, no matter what they do, as long as they can do it, they will do their best to help you. ”

Fraser took the badge, a round silver badge carved into the center of a grizzly bear with a bloody mouth wide open. "Thank you, I'll take good care of it. ”

Amos nodded, and just as the three rode to the fork in the road, Fraser glanced at the road on the right. "I'm going to Two Rivers, where are you going?"

Amos tilted his head towards the road to the left. "We went to Duluth, and there was a companion there waiting for us to rendezvous, and he had trouble there and needed our help. ”

Fraser nodded to the two of them. "Then there will be a date later, goodbye. ”

"Wait!" Jurania suddenly stopped Fraser, who was about to turn his horse's head, and then looked at his fellow witcher. "Amos, I want to go with Fraser, can I go with him? Traveling with him must have been a very different experience of traveling with the witchers, and I can hone myself better. ”

"This ......," Amos touched his chin. "Frazier has to agree to this......"

Before Amos could finish speaking, a strong wind suddenly blew out of thin air, causing the two witchers to cover their eyes with their hands, and then a sound of horses' hooves ran farther and farther, and when the wind stopped, Fraser had already run away on horseback, leaving only a vague back and dust raised.

Jurania was so angry that her mouth crooked. "You wait for Frazier!"

The town of Two Rivers was the first large town west of Duluth, the capital of Tampe, and was named Two Rivers because of the two rivers that run through it. Due to its location in the middle of Wallis's north-south direction, northern Tempe was not damaged much during the Seventh Darktide War, and was still thriving compared to other war-torn towns. Hawkers can be found everywhere on the streets, selling their wares while stomping their feet in the cold wind, and some street performers perform their tricks in crowded areas in exchange for tips.

Fraser wandered aimlessly around town, and the Tempe girls on the street sometimes reminded him of a person, but it was a painful memory, and he didn't want to reminisce too much. Fortunately, when he walked to the town center square, a bounty sign caught his attention, as it was rare for a sign to have so many red exclamation marks, and usually each red exclamation mark represented an unfortunate person who tried to get a bounty but lost his life.

There were already quite a few people standing in front of the signs, some were residents watching the bustle, and some people who looked like mercenaries were counting the number of exclamation marks with serious expressions. Fraser was no exception, and it took him two counts to confirm that the number of exclamation points was sixteen. That's a terrible number, he thought, as he read the notice. Some of the surrounding mercenaries left after counting the number of exclamation points, and the rest chose to give up after reading the contents of the notice, only Fraser walked towards the mayor's house in the center of the town.

Two Rivers was a large town, and Fraser could see the mayor's house from afar, but he walked for more than ten minutes and turned several corners before standing in front of the gate. Compared to the other houses in the town, this house is simply a giant, and at first glance it is thought to be a king's resort. The five-storey building overlooks a circle of rooms with at most two floors, each with several rooms, each with at least one window, and the outer walls of the houses are covered with expensive stone, some with intricate patterns carved into the bricks. Around the house was a large circle of gardens, enough to put more than a dozen of these behemoths, and strangely enough, there was not a single gardener in the garden, overgrown with weeds, and there was silence.

Fraser stood in front of the gate and looked at the mansion in front of him, knowing a little about the whole thing, when a tall, strong bodyguard appeared out of nowhere and looked at him alertly through the door. "Who are you, and what are you doing here?"

Fraser looked at him coldly. "I'm here to solve your master's troubles. ”

The bodyguard's gaze swept around Fraser for dozens of yards, but there was no second person, and the residents did not dare to approach it. "You're alone, are you sure you're not here to die, if you let me know you're a liar, that monster will tear you apart without me stepping in!"

"Monster?" Fraser raised an eyebrow?

"Yes, that's right, monster! I'm scared, so get out of here!" the bodyguard smiled sinisterly.

Frazier's patience had run out. "If you don't open the door again, I'll kick the iron door away. ”

The bodyguard changed his face and slowly opened the iron door, with a squeak, the rusty iron door opened a crack, and after Fraser entered, the bodyguard quickly closed the door nervously, as if he was afraid that something would follow in, and Fraser noticed his unusual behavior.

The bodyguards sent Frazier to the door of the house, knocked heavily on the door a few times, and roared again, before the door slowly opened, and the two bodyguards stood on both sides, one left and one right, and waited for several minutes before seeing an old man coming unhurriedly. "Is there another mercenary? ”

"Yes, Mr. Tarridge, he's the only one. "The bodyguard's submissive appearance is completely different from just now.

The old man got out of the way. "Come in, mercenary, the mayor is waiting upstairs. And then he didn't forget to tell the bodyguards. "Bagre, keep standing guard at the door, and I'll have Joanna bring you the food later. ”

After hesitating for a few seconds, Bagley said, "Mr. Tarridge, do you see if you can find a few more bodyguards to guard the garden? ”

The old man glanced at him. "You think I don't want to, but no one wants to stay in the garden, they only dare to stay in the house, and you're the only one who is brave enough, I'll think of a way." ”

Seeing that it was useless to go on, Bargre sighed and turned to leave, and the old man locked the door, hung the key around his neck, and led Fraser towards the stairs. "I'm the butler here, Tarridge, what's your name, mercenary?"

"Frazier, what's Mayor Mare's name?" asked Fraser as he surveyed the furnishings of the house, which was deserving of the title of mansion in terms of decoration and furnishings.

Thalridge stopped in front of the stairs. "It seems that you have not been here for long, and our mayor's name is Ander, who was sent to Two Rivers five years ago. With that, he stepped up the stairs.

Fraser followed him up the stairs, which were made of sturdy wood and covered with a red carpet. After going up to the second floor, the butler led him straight to a heavy wooden door, guarded by a bodyguard on each side of the door. The bodyguard opened the door, and the butler walked in with Fraser, the room was not very large, just a relatively spacious bedroom, but there were four bodyguards standing inside, guarding the four directions, and on a large chair in the middle of the room, sat the owner of the house, Mayor Ander.
