Chapter 125: Recruiting Belengar

With the help of the Intermediate Healing Potion, Belengar's injuries were quickly stabilized, but his body was still very weak, and by the time he woke up, it was already the next day.

Since the relationship between them and him was not close, Askel took the initiative to take care of him, and took care of him all night by the fireplace in the hall.

When it was time for breakfast, Eskell helped Belengar, who had already woken up, to the table and dine with everyone.

Although his words were a little stiff and his voice was hoarse and dry, the man was very sincere in expressing his gratitude to everyone, including Wayne's kindness in giving him the healing potion.

However, he still seems to be very unaccustomed to getting along with everyone, even if he eats the delicious food cooked by Wayne, his expression is as if he is chewing wax, and he lowers his head and eats silently the whole time, without showing much joy.

And because of his presence, everyone didn't let go of the conversation as before, and the atmosphere at the table seemed a little dull.

However, this scene did not last long, and after breakfast, Belengar took the initiative to take his leave, and stayed in his room all day, as in the past, and no longer appeared in front of everyone's eyes at will.

And in this winter, there were no other incidents in Kellmohan, and the brothers of the Wolf School had nothing to do to play Gwent cards, practice swordsmanship, or in Kellmohan's library, learn and consolidate the monster knowledge of the witcher, and exchange ideas at the dinner table, and each other's experiences over the past year.

When the others knew that Geralt had spent most of the year with a sorceress named Yennefer, they were all very curious, constantly asking about the details of the white wolf's life, and at the same time, they also vaguely felt the strong personality and extreme desire for control of the sorceress Yennefer.

However, seeing Geralt looking happy, everyone didn't say anything more, and could only silently give blessings in their hearts.

In daily life, Wayne, as the youngest of the witchers, took the initiative to take over all the cooking work, Geralt was responsible for going out hunting and obtaining wild game and wild vegetables, and Viselmir was also very interested, renovating the vegetable field that Wayne left before, and replanting some vegetables that can grow in winter.

As for chopping wood and raising horses, fishing and clearing snow, repairing the castle and other chores, Lambert and Eskel took care of them.

Everyone is like a real family, sharing all the housework and living a quiet and peaceful life.

However, Wayne has one more job in addition to practicing swordsmanship, learning knowledge, cooking food, and using animal taming to tame Xiaoice Wolf White Fang.

That is, at the time of the meal every day, give one to Belengar, and by the way, help him change the herbs and bandages on his body.

According to what Viselmir had told him in private, Berengar was actually a wretched man, well, it should be said that most witchers were wretched.

This man was the child he had rescued from the robbers' den, and his parents had been killed by the robbers, and since he had no relatives, he was brought back to Kellmohan by Viselmir.

Of the eight children who trained with him and grew up together, only Belengar successfully completed all the trials and survived, but it was also the lowest level of genetic mutation experiments.

That experiment not only made him lose his fertility and all his friends of the same age, but also became very extreme because of various physical and mental stimuli.

And because the effect of the genetic mutation is not ideal, among all the current wolf school witchers, Belengar's strength is the weakest.

Even outside the castle, he encountered much more difficulties than ordinary witchers when carrying out various witcher commissions.

At this point, Vismere also sighed, and he told Wayne:

"Looking back, I'm not sure if it was right or wrong to bring him back to Kyrmohan and make him a witcher. This may be more painful for him than making him a wandering orphan. ”

Others may not know this, but Wayne, who has played a generation of games, knows that Belengar does extremely dislike being a witcher, and it has always been his dream to become an ordinary person, get married, have children, and have his own family.

Decades later, the reason why Belengar revealed Kylemohan's information was also because he had been tortured by the Salamanders for a long time, and he had to make a choice when his life was threatened.

After encountering Geralt, he would also sacrifice his life to deal with the Warlocks of the Salamanders.

After all, life is too hard for many witchers, not only do they have to face the danger of monsters, physical pain, but also the strange eyes of others.

And they are all long-lived immortals, and if there is no accident, this torment may last for hundreds of years.

At dinner that day, Wayne held his shaggy white fangs and took a piece of dinner and pushed open the door of Belengar's room.

found that the man who had been silent was packing his luggage at this time, although he only had a few old clothes, he was ready to leave.

After seeing Wayne come in, he pursed his lips and nodded at Wayne in some silence, without speaking.

Wayne put the food on the table, looked at Belengar, who had not yet healed from his injuries, thought about it, and although he felt a little presumptuous, he still spoke:

"Belengar, are you going to leave alone tomorrow?"

Belengar's movements paused for a second, but quickly returned to normal, he nodded, his voice revealing hoarse and weak, and said:

"Yes, I'm going to leave tomorrow."

Seeing that this was the case, Wayne sighed in his heart, there was no choice but to say his thoughts before the person left.

"It's too dangerous for you to leave Kylemohan now, not only have your injuries not healed, you have lost seven or seven or eight of your equipment and supplies, but now the snow has just melted, and the weather outside is still very bad, with your current physical condition, maybe you will faint halfway."

Hearing this, Belengar glanced up at Wayne, still paused for a few seconds before saying:

"I know, but I still want to leave as soon as possible."

Seeing that the other party was a little bit of a lack of oil and salt, Wayne was silent for a while, and said directly to the point:

"Belengar, don't you want to be a witcher anymore and want to get out of this life?"

Hearing Wayne's words, Belengar's movements seemed to freeze, he slowly raised his head, his originally somewhat cold and hard expression became more vivid, looked at Wayne and asked:

"Why do you think that, huh, Wayne?"

Wayne touched the Icewolf cub who was held in his arms, found a chair in Belengar's room and sat down, before he said:

"Viselmir told me what happened to you, your life has always been full of suffering, and misfortune has been with you since you were a child."

"It's not surprising to think this way, and a lot of witchers have struggled with this for a long time."

"It's just that you're more obvious."

Belengar lowered his head slightly, sighed, and said:

"Wayne, you're still young."

"When you've been a demon hunter like me for decades, and you still can't eat, sleep, have no relatives, no friends, and help those people clean up monsters, not only did you not pay, but you were besieged by them and almost died."

"You'll understand why I'm so disgusted to be a witcher."

Wayne nodded when he heard this, he probably understood the pain of this kind of encounter in his heart, but he was born with his own system, even if the real employer was not paid, he could not be short of money, and it was impossible for him to experience this miserable life.

After a few seconds of silence, Wayne considered his tone and said bluntly:

"In that case, Belengar, will you work for me? Work for a long time, maybe for decades, maybe for hundreds of years, until you want to retire. ”

"You don't need to worry about the trivial things of life anymore, and you don't have to face all kinds of battles with monsters every day, I even have a way to help you hide your identity as a demon hunter, so that you can live a life similar to that of ordinary people."

"As long as you are loyal to me and don't betray me, maybe the life of your dreams can come true."

Belengar was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect Wayne to say such a thing.

In his imagination, he thought that the next scene would be the scene of two demon hunters complaining to each other and comforting each other, but how did it suddenly become like this.

He was stunned for more than ten seconds before he asked in a somewhat hoarse voice:

"You hired me? I remember you just became a witcher this year. ”

"What did you hire me for? Shall the two of us go together to execute the order? ”

Wayne tilted his head and thought for a moment and said:

"For the time being, it's a bodyguard or a guard, it's safe and stable, maybe sometimes you'll be my helper and perform some tasks with me."

"I will also take care of the equipment and horses for you, you don't need to communicate with the employer, and you don't need to deal with those people, everything is handled by me, and you don't have to worry about the treatment."

As he spoke, Wayne smiled confidently and gently, and said:

"To be honest, I may not have as much experience as you when it comes to performing tasks, but when it comes to making money, that's what I do best."

"If you promise me, your recent place of work will be near Virgin City, and you won't need to travel around anymore, and you can live a stable life in that city for a few years."

When Belengar heard this, he and Wayne looked at each other for dozens of seconds, not knowing what kind of struggle and thinking he had gone through in his mind, and finally, he asked with some difficulty:

"Why me? We're not acquainted, you don't have a friendship? ”

"Maybe you didn't even know my name before last month."

"How could you trust me so easily?"

Wayne also sighed when he heard this, and said with a serious expression:

"I didn't fully trust you, Belengar, I just gave you a chance."

"We are both witchers, and we are both witchers of the wolf school, we are born to help each other, and if you live up to my trust in the end, I get a good brother who can entrust my life."

"And if I had seen it myself, I would have lost a little money."

"So the most important thing is whether you are willing to give yourself a chance to try to believe me."
