Chapter 213: Sianna's Ambition
Early the next morning, Wayne woke up from his sleep, his fingers subconsciously pinched, and a ball of warmth was grasped by him in his hand, groping carefully.
He turned his head to look and saw that Xia was with tears in the corners of her eyes, her eyes closed, her white body curled into a ball, and she had not yet woken up from her sleep.
I have to say that the effect of the healing potion is quite good, in last night's training, Wayne also discovered other wonderful uses of this potion, if it weren't for it, an ordinary human like Xia would simply not be able to withstand the strong body of a top-level witcher.
In the future, his healing potion may become an essential item when looking for happiness.
However, the former duke's daughter is also quite good in her genes, not only white and beautiful, but also physically healthy, and her figure and physical strength are also quite outstanding.
Thanks to the cultivation of nutrition and court etiquette since childhood, she is much better than ordinary girls in terms of temperament, which is the source of the so-called noble temperament.
Looking at Sianna who was still asleep, Wayne reached out and grabbed the other one, pinched it as if playfully, and waited until the girl woke up from a slight stinging pain, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, reached out and stroked the girl's long black and smooth hair, and said in a slightly domineering tone:
"It's time to get up, my Sianna."
"Crawl here, yes, yes!."
"It's time to start your morning workout."
After the morning exercise that made him feel comfortable, in order to reward the girl for her obedience last night, Wayne specially cooked by himself, made a hearty breakfast, and took out some cakes and candies specially used to coax the little girl from the space bracelet to entertain her.
In the past two days, because of the malicious torture of those knights, Xia has almost not eaten, and last night's training is also quite physically exhausting, watching her pick up the delicious cake with elegant aristocratic etiquette, and the expression when she gobbles up, Wayne can't help but smile a little.
He picked up a glass of cherry honey and dried it in one gulp, waiting until the girl looked nervously at him with blue eyes because of his laughter.
Wayne said with a smile:
"Don't be nervous, my Sianna, take it easy, I'm not a harsh master."
"When you spend a long time together, you will find that I am a generous host."
"Perhaps, as an ordinary person, the identity of a duke's daughter can indeed make many commoners look up to and be called noble, but by becoming my slave, you are no longer a mortal, and you can obtain many precious things that the royal family and nobles can't get."
Seeing that Xia showed some inexplicable eyes, Wayne added in a seductive tone:
"I am an immortal species, with a lifespan of thousands of years, I will not let my slaves wither so quickly, and it would be a waste for a beautiful beauty like you to wither and grow old if she only kept it for twenty years."
"I have many ways to keep you alive for hundreds, even millennia, until your native kingdom of Touscent no longer exists, and you will still be as young and beautiful as you are now."
"At that time, you will find out what a lucky thing it is to be my slave."
"Of course, the premise is that you can get my favor, otherwise, I won't spend extra thoughts on you, I have many choices, and yours has only one, do you understand?"
Phoenix! Stay young forever! That is one of the greatest pursuits of all human beings.
After listening to Wayne's temptation, the fear in Sianna's eyes dissipated a lot, and was replaced by a desire to stay young forever.
She adapted quickly, although there was still doubt in her heart, but there was no resistance on her face, and with an obedient attitude, she said to Wayne:
"I see, master, I will do my best to meet your request and will not let you down."
Wayne was very satisfied with the girl's attitude, although he knew very well in his heart that the girl's heart was definitely not as obedient as it appeared.
But enough, he is not just a high-level vampire Delave, who will be tricked to death by Sianna with a simple trick.
There is still a long time to come, and as long as he firmly grasps her weaknesses, he still has a lot of time to train this little girl.
Wayne tasted the wine, and after a few seconds of silence, he took out a box containing a sapphire necklace from the space bracelet, pushed it in front of Xia, and said:
"This is my gift to you, Sianna."
"With it, your appearance will be disguised by magic, no one will recognize you again, and I, I will put you to the test."
"Joel, a tobacco merchant, is my disguised identity in Bowclan, and I'm going to open a tobacco shop in the middle of town soon."
"You're going to be my agent, managing the shop and selling the tobacco for me."
"I don't care how much money I can make, but it's a test of your ability, and if you're just a beautiful woman like a vase, it's not of much value to me."
"But if you can show your value and let me see your ability, I will also value you more, and you should understand what I mean."
This is the magic necklace I got from Francesca, similar to this kind of camouflage props, there are a few more in Wayne's space bracelet, compared with other lethal magic props, these props that can disguise their identities are really easy to use and cheap, and they are not easy to be debunked, which is quite in line with his heart.
Listening to Wayne's understatement, a sense of crisis unconsciously rose in Xia's heart, although she was very confident in her figure and appearance, but the girl who was familiar with various aristocratic stories since she was a child also knew very well that a woman with only beauty would only become a sad commodity, an ornamental object, without any freedom and rights, and would not be respected by men.
Only by showing one's own value can one be valued by others, and this truth is very practical no matter where it is placed.
The girl reached out and took the sapphire necklace and put it on her slender neck very obediently.
With a burst of magical light, her appearance changed, although she was still quite beautiful, but compared to before, she did not have the noble temperament of the past, and became a little more ordinary, and no one could recognize her identity through this face.
However, compared with yesterday's confusion and helplessness, a new hope rose in Xia's heart at this time, and a flame called ambition was ignited in those blue eyes.
………………
Two days later, Wayne bought a shop in the city of Bowland, which was located in the middle of nowhere, but it was large enough to be used not only as a store, but also as a residential residence, which was quite convenient.
Soon, after a simple cleanup, there was no elaborate decoration, but the original store was used, and Wayne's pipe grass store was officially opened.
Gaitan, the Cat Demon Hunter, also got a magic glasses to disguise, which concealed his Witcher's vertical pupils and acted as a bodyguard to maintain order in the store.
And the Kanban lady Sianna is also officially acting as Wayne's agent, selling pipe grass in the store.
Although she was just an aristocratic girl with little social experience in the past, she had received a higher education, and her vision surpassed that of most commoners, and after stumbling to adapt for a few days, she quickly took on her role and began to help Wayne, the shopkeeper, sell pipe grass.
Thanks to Wayne's publicity during this time, this high-end tobacco from another world is not sold at all, if Wayne hadn't adopted a hunger marketing method and supplied it to his customers in limited quantities, maybe his pipe grass would have been bought by other merchants at a high price.
Wayne's purpose in setting up this tobacco shop was not just to sell pipe grass, he also gave Sianna another task, which was to acquire a large number of Gwent brands.
Strange to say, GWENT, a card game that has become popular among the northern countries, does not have a special store to sell these cards, and most people trade them privately or by winning or losing cards.
In the Middle Ages, when printing technology and manufacturing technology were relatively backward, these exquisite cards were all made by hand, and even if they were the same card, there were subtle differences as long as you looked closely.
This method of making, in addition to making GWENT cards quite rare, also adds a lot of collectible value to these beautiful cards, especially those exquisite rare cards, depending on their rarity, each card can even sell for a few crowns or dozens of crowns.
All Gwent players know that this game came from the dwarves of Mahakan and was invented by them, but no one knows where these cards really come from, or where to buy more cards.
But unlike the others, Gwent's level is an important part of improving his strength, and Wayne values the game more than anyone else.
He also saw the potential of the game, and he would join in promoting Gwent cards, whether as a money-making business, a means of socializing, or an important bargaining chip to improve his strength.
Perhaps, before he becomes the most powerful witcher in the world, he will become the king of the most famous Gwent cards in the world.
After arranging the affairs of the store, Wayne also began his journey to find the underwater ruins of the Valley of the Nine.
However, unlike the original book, Wayne did not have the letter provided by Triss at this time, nor did he have any information about Thomas. The only thing Dr. Morlu knew was that the underwater ruins were in the Valley of the Nine.
But Wayne is not worried about this, unlike Geralt, Lord Wayne is the knight of the goddess of the lake, a knight in every sense.
And to some extent, Tauscent is also the territory of the goddess of the lake, the birthplace of the knight's belief in the five virtues, and if he doesn't know information about such things, he can go to the beautiful and holy goddess of the lake, Her Excellency Lilith, and ask about it.
The only trouble is that every time I go to visit the goddess of the lake, it consumes too much time.
Wayne set out in the morning and didn't end the visit until the afternoon of the next day, although the process was comfortable and happy, and he could increase the proficiency of the divine blessing skill, but it was indeed too delayed.
But this time, he didn't prostitute the beautiful body and intelligence of the goddess in vain, but he didn't expect the goddess to give him a task, a master-level task.
Bite! Quest trigger, [Destroy the evil in the ruins], master, whether to take it or not.
Faced with a masterclass task, or a task worthy of being entrusted by the venerable goddess Lilith, Wayne certainly would not refuse.
The goal of this quest is to seal away the evil god in an underground ruin in the west of Bowclan, known as the Desolate Wilderness.
This evil god is quite old, whether it is the name or the origin, it is no longer exquisite, and the ability is similar to that of a powerful evil spirit.
But according to the information of the goddess of the lake, the seal of this evil god is about to expire, although after thousands of years of seals, the power of this evil god has long been much less than before, but once he gets out of trouble and returns to the world, it can absorb all kinds of negative emotions in the world, quickly recover its strength, and be a disaster.
The best thing to do is to destroy it before its seal is lifted.
Although this is also a palliative method, even if the evil god leaked out of the seal is destroyed, it will be resurrected after thousands of years, but it is the best way to reduce the evil power in the world.
However, this task is not a very urgent task, the evil god has been sealed for thousands of years, although now the seal has been damaged and is starting to leak little by little, but it is not a little bit of time, even if it waits for another month or a few months, it will be fine.
Wayne was going to wait until the end of his trip to the Valley of the Nine Valleys, and then make an appointment with a few other witchers and a few warlocks to deal with the evil god.
Anyway, these are all tool people that Wayne has already wooed, so they don't have to be used in vain, and they can also reduce accidents and risks.
As a god who is proficient in all kinds of spells, blessings and prophecies, the ruins of the Valley of the Nine are underwater, and the information of the goddess of the lake is very accurate, and she quickly predicted the location of the ruins and told Wayne.
But not only that, but through the prophecy spell, the goddess also told Wayne something.
That is, the man he was looking for is now buried in the cemetery outside Bowland.
Getting some information from that person's grave will make his quest much easier.
Well, after listening to this prophecy of the goddess, Wayne patted his head with some chagrin, the prophecy of the goddess was indeed very useful, reminding him of a detail that he had forgotten.
That is, Thomas Moru's grave is in the cemetery of Bockland, although during the game, that grave has been stolen by tomb robbers, but it is now twenty years ago, and the professor's grave should be unharmed.
Sure enough, several years have passed since his previous life, and many memories in the game have become blurred, and many details, he can't remember so clearly.
And because of the different timelines, the memories of the past are not as safe as predicting the future, which is something he must pay attention to in the future.
Now that he had received this information, for the sake of safety, Wayne did not go directly to the Valley of the Nine, but returned to the cemetery in Bowland first, where he found Professor Molu's grave.
Though he was a little sorry, he took advantage of the darkness to dig up the professor's coffin and take the notebook of Professor Molu's notes from his corpse, which had been reduced to dry bones.
This notebook not only contains some of Professor Molu's last words, the location of the Kunoya Laboratory, and some of the pitfalls and details of the construction of the laboratory, but also some of his repentance for his past actions and guilt for his son and wife.
I have to say that this professor is a great father and a talented researcher.
Although his original purpose failed, he opened up a new path for later demon hunters.
After everything was ready, Wayne did not stop, and immediately returned to driving the magic flying carpet, flew to the Valley of the Nine, and began his journey to explore the ruins.
