Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 104 Borch's Gift

The next morning, when Wayne left Kayla's mansion, he had about a thousand Oren gold coins more than usual, including his mission reward and share of the spoils.

In addition, to reward him for his hard work over the past few days, Kayla gave him a small gift.

Those were the disguise glasses he had mentioned before. As long as he wore these glasses, his eyes could be disguised as the deep blue eyes of an ordinary person, and if needed, his elven pointed ears could also be disguised as ordinary human ears.

This disguise is quite simple; whether the glasses are destroyed or affected by the magic-blocking metal, the disguise will fail.

However, it is a rather useful little gadget. If Wayne needs it, he can use it to disguise himself as an ordinary human without having to maintain his identity as a Witcher, avoid suspicion, and reduce unnecessary trouble.

He planned to try it himself first, and if it worked well, he could ask Keira to make a few more as gifts for his fellow witchers.

When he returned home, he was all alone in the huge villa, which instantly made Wayne feel relaxed.

However, he quickly remembered that he still had things to do, so he went to his room, closed the door, took a hot shower, changed into loose and comfortable clothes, lit incense, and sat back on the bed.

After a series of devout prayers, on the last day of the blessing from the goddess of the lake, he entered the process of opening the box.

Besides the one expert-level treasure chest left over from the dragon hunting mission and the one obtained from this mission, his system also stores more than a dozen common-level treasure chests that he usually obtains.

Ding! Treasure chest opened: 2 Expert-level Treasure Chests and 13 Common-level Treasure Chests.

Obtained: 352 Oren, 100 Dragon Scales, and a Church Hunter's Blood Collection Vial.

As soon as the system's voice faded, the two items appeared immediately beside Wayne.

One type consists of grayish-red, shell-like scales, about the size of a child's fist, neatly stacked together. These scales were likely just collected from some wild animal, and at the base of the scales, there were even traces of blood that had not yet dried.

The other was a brown glass jar with a capacity of about one liter, filled with thick, bright red, unknown blood. On the outside of the jar was a note written in a special language, but Wayne did not recognize the contents.

Looking at these two items, Wayne felt a headache coming on. He didn't feel the joy he had when he received the item rewards. The dragon scales were a rare item from an expert-level treasure chest, while the blood collection bottle was from a common-level treasure chest.

Dragon Scales: Scales from the belly of a dragon that was recently killed in Skyrim. This is a superior material that combines strength and flexibility, with a moderate weight, making it suitable for making various light and medium-weight armor.

Church Hunter's Blood Vial: This blood vial comes from a deceased Healing Church hunter in Yharnam. It is a special kind of blood that, when consumed, can slowly heal many injuries and various diseases. However, this blood contains unknown substances that can cause unpredictable effects.

Looking at the item descriptions provided by the system, Wayne realized, after reading them carefully, that all the rewards he had obtained were forcibly taken from other worlds by the system, or rather, stolen.

Both the blood collection vial and the dragon scales had their original owners. Although the former's owner was dead, the latter, looking at the dragon scales that looked like spoils just collected from a corpse, actually made Wayne feel a faint sense of guilt.

Imagine someone who's just slain a dragon and collected all the loot; they'd be incredibly disappointed to find their loot has suddenly decreased.

However, he quickly put this guilt into his heart. Alas, there was nothing he could do. It was not something he could decide. Just like the spatial rift before, if he had a choice, he certainly wouldn't have absorbed everything at once, creating a potential hidden danger. But the system did not give him a choice.

Either do nothing, or accept the outcome.

In order to become stronger and enhance his ability to protect himself, he simply made a decision that most people would make.

Composing himself, Wayne stored the bundle of dragon scales in a box. It was an excellent top-grade armor-making material, but unfortunately, he didn't have any good armor blueprints at the moment, so he could only wait for a future opportunity to use it.

As for the blood collection bottle, anyone who has played the game knows that it contains diluted ancient god blood, a very strange kind of blood.

While it can indeed cure many terminal illnesses, no one knows what will happen if ordinary people take it. They might be infected by the blood of the ancient gods and turn into monsters who only know how to kill.

However, it would be a shame to throw it away, so Wayne put it in his storage bag, thinking that he might need it someday in the future.

With no work scheduled, Wayne found himself with nothing to do after opening the treasure chests.

However, he had to meet Fitz by the lake that evening, so he could only arrange some small tasks for himself and not break his promise again.

Just as he was struggling with his decision, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.

"Wayne, my friend, I've come to visit you."

As soon as Wayne heard the voice, he knew it was Borch. It had been seven days since they parted, so it was about time for him to come and visit.

Without much thought, Wayne immediately came out of the house and went to the front door to greet his good friend.

However, to his surprise, besides the two Zerekan warriors, Tiavia and Borch, there was also a pretty girl around sixteen years old, and a little girl around four or five years old wearing a pink dress, with a lively and curious expression.

As soon as they met, the little girl cheered and ran over with her short legs, hugging Wayne's leg and looking up at him with a smile.

The sixteen-year-old girl, on the other hand, looked arrogant and impatient, raised her head and snorted without saying a word.

Wayne wasn't a fool. Upon seeing this scene, he immediately thought of Borch's transformation ability, as well as the green dragon mate and child he had just acquired.

Neither side spoke much outside. He welcomed everyone into his house and brought out pastries, candies, and juice to entertain them.

After some conversation, Wayne was right. The girl who looked about sixteen and always had an impatient expression was Borch's wife, the green dragon Milgatabrek.

And that cute little girl is, of course, the baby dragon Sakia.

As for why they had become like this, Borch, being a straightforward person, didn't offer much explanation. Instead, he took out a palm-sized golden scale from his pocket, a golden horn carved from a dragon tooth from his waist, and the huge wooden box that Via and Tia always carried with them, and placed them all on the table in front of Wayne.

He patted the wooden crate while laughing heartily and said:

"My friend, I've come here specifically to give you a reward."

"I told you before, I won't let my friends suffer losses, and this time the reward will definitely satisfy you."
