Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 222 Confessing the Secret to Triss

Toussaint, Carobstacles Forest.

Beside a clear, tranquil pool, a group of deer were drinking water, several butterflies were fluttering lightly around the flowers beside the pool, and a few wild rabbits were grazing on the grass on the ground.

Suddenly, the chaotic magic in the air vibrated violently. As if sensing something, the small animals scattered immediately, letting out terrified cries.

A few seconds later, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the previously calm space above the pool, about fifteen meters high. With the pull of an invisible force, this slender crack was quickly torn to the left and right, turning into a huge spatial passage that was fifteen meters high and five meters wide.

A scene resembling emptiness flickered continuously within this spatial passage.

A dozen seconds later, a huge humanoid creature with an ugly appearance and wearing a suit of metal armor poked its head out of the spatial passage. After hesitating for a second, it quickly walked out of the spatial passage. Judging from its figure and appearance, it was an ugly giant with a height of eight or nine meters.

As the first giant emerged from the spatial passage, the giants following behind him, each carrying a large amount of supplies, also lined up and walked out of the spatial passage.

One, ten, fifty, one hundred—the number of these giants quickly reached more than two hundred and fifty.

They were enormous and numerous, their faces filled with curiosity and worry. They crowded every gap around the pool, making quite a racket, but soon, under the command of a few leading giants, they returned to silence.

Finally, a strong man with blond hair and wearing magnificent armor emerged from the spatial passage. Upon seeing him, all the giants present slowed their breathing and lowered their heads meekly, clearly showing considerable awe and fear towards this man.

Wayne, now back in the wizarding world, breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of comfort in both body and mind, nourished by the chaotic magic.

In Elizabeth's low-magic world, although his strength was a devastating blow to others, the extremely low magic concentration caused him to constantly feel a sense of oppression that limited his power.

Wayne even thought that if he stayed in a low-magic world for too long, his mutated organs might not receive the nourishment of chaotic magic for an extended period, and his body might degenerate and become weak.

Regardless, this legion of giants had already come with him to the wizarding world. With this group of giants under his command, he was fearless in both large-scale legion battles and elite battles between kings, and had the confidence to confront other major forces.

No more worrying about some brain-dead king sending a large army to deal with the Witchers.

However, as Wayne looked at this large group of tall, strong, and conspicuous giants, another problem instantly arose in his mind.

They are currently located in the southern Kingdom of Toussaint, thousands of kilometers away from the northern kingdom. What method can be used to transport these conspicuous giants to the north?

After thinking for a long time, this was the only thing Wayne could think of.

Aside from long journeys and traveling on foot, the only other option is to use the power of a warlock to open a large portal.

Unfortunately, the only warlock he can contact right now is the powerful elven warlock Francisca.

He wouldn't mind exposing other things, like gold and jewels, to the elven sorceress, but he didn't want to reveal information about such a giant army, capable of resisting a human legion of ten thousand, to Francesca.

The two sides have not reached that level of trust yet, and this matter may even cause other setbacks.

So now, his best option is Triss, the red-haired sorceress he can trust.

However, the first thing he needed to do was to contact his little lover. At this time, the two were thousands of kilometers apart, and he would have to rely on the power of magic to do so.

Thinking this, Wayne remounted his magic carpet, soaring into the air and looking down at the giants below, commanding:

"Servants, you will set up camp here for the time being and rest. You are not allowed to leave the area within 500 meters of this place. Wait for my next order."

After giving the order, he looked at one of the giants whose face was completely hairless, whose body was covered in scars, and who carried a giant axe on his back, and said:

"Glass, this is your first mission as the giant general. Don't cause any trouble, or you know the consequences."

Upon hearing this, the giant known as Glass immediately knelt on one knee, respectfully addressing Wayne, and replied:

"As you command, Master."

"I will kill any guy who dares to disobey his master's orders."

Wayne nodded upon hearing this. This giant was one of the more obedient and capable fighters he had chosen from the remaining ones. In any case, with the Magic Crown, these giants couldn't cause any trouble.

After giving the giants the order to rest, Wayne immediately piloted his flying carpet and flew towards Beauclair.

It had been almost ten days since he left, and he had no idea what changes had occurred in the city.

Soon, Wayne returned to the house and shop he had purchased.

Despite not returning for so many days, business at the shop was still booming. From afar, one could see elegantly dressed men and women constantly entering and leaving the shop, while many others left with satisfied smiles.

He also saw Gatan, the cat-like witcher, standing outside the door soliciting business. The guy had a sword on his back and a smile on his face as he kept bringing customers into the shop, and he seemed to enjoy his current life.

After he greeted Gaitan and entered the shop, he saw Siana standing behind the counter, greeting customers with a polite smile. Besides her, there were two other young female workers in the shop, who were probably her employees. The three of them were busy in the shop, and it was clear that this was not their first day working like this.

It seems that this former duke's daughter is quite honest; at least she didn't try anything funny while he was away, such as running away or taking other actions, which saved him a lot of trouble.

After seeing Wayne enter the store, Sienna immediately chatted with a cute-looking female worker in the store, then left the counter and walked to Wayne's side with a sweet smile.

She whispered "Master" to him, crossed her arms over her chest, pressed her round chest against his, and reported the details of the tobacco shop's business, income and expenses to Wayne, appearing very obedient.

Although he knew perfectly well that the girl wasn't as well-behaved and charming as he appeared, Wayne was still quite satisfied with her attitude. At least Syanna was very smart and not the kind of person who didn't understand her place, and he liked to be around smart people.

After offering a few simple compliments to Sianna to soothe the young woman's somewhat uneasy feelings, Wayne turned and left.

After leaving the shop and returning to the residence behind it, he discovered that Leto and the others had also moved in and were practicing their swordsmanship in a small training ground he had built, displaying impressive skill.

Upon discovering Wayne's return, Letor quickly approached him and handed him several Grandmaster-level Witcher blueprints.

Clearly, during this time, they had completed all their exploration tasks and successfully found the blueprints he needed.

Wayne was quite pleased with this. Another master-level quest was completed, and he didn't even have to lift a finger. Now he just needed to go to the Elven Armor Master Tynsel to get the quest experience and rewards.

Now that Leto and the others have completed their mission, Wayne has also achieved all his goals for this trip to Toussaint.

As for the task of killing the evil god given by the goddess of the lake, there is no rush. He can complete it in a few years. He doesn't want to worry about that for the time being.

So Wayne addressed Letor and the others, saying:

"Soon, let's head to the Kingdom of Temuria together. There, I have a secure mission for you to complete."

"Actually, I've been researching ways to reduce the mortality rate in the Grass Trial for a while now. I've found a direction, and when I get to the North, I'll share them with you so we can study and improve them together."

This is bait. Although Letso and the others had already agreed to go north with him, having such bait will definitely increase their enthusiasm.

Now, only a handful of Viper School members remain, all the apprentices have died. Reviving the school and passing on the legacy of more Witchers is one of the ideals in the hearts of Letho and others.

For this ideal, Letso and others were willing to make many sacrifices, even their lives.

In the original story, Emperor Emhyr of Nilfgaard used the revival of the Viper School as a condition to exchange for Letho and others assassinating the King of the North. Of course, in addition to this, there was also the threat of Yennefer's life, who had been captured.

Therefore, Wayne's statement was immediately recognized and responded to by Leto and others, who were even eager to return to the North with Wayne.

After dealing with some trivial matters in the city, Wayne quickly contacted Francesca in his room using a communicator. However, he didn't need the elven sorceress to do anything major; he simply asked her to contact Triss as soon as possible and have the red-haired sorceress come to Toussaint.

Francesca clearly had her doubts about Wayne's request, but she wisely didn't delve into it, only saying in a somewhat resentful tone:

"It seems you've been hiding a lot from me, Wayne."

"They'd rather believe a human than their own kind, and they won't believe me."

"I hope you can trust me more in the future, and I can keep your secrets."

However, despite her complaints, the elven sorceress acted swiftly, and by the following evening, the red-haired beauty Triss had contacted Wayne through Francesca's communicator.

With the help of a portal, they arrived directly in Toussaint.

The moment they met, before the red-haired sorceress could even give Wayne a passionate kiss, she pinched him hard on the waist and angrily questioned him:

"You've been asking other sorceresses for help all this time, but you haven't come to me. Don't you trust me, Wayne?"

Faced with an angry Triss, Wayne could only hold her tightly in his arms, silence her questions with his mouth, and then carry her to the bedside, answering everything with his actions.

No woman's body can withstand the impact of a witcher, especially Triss, who is sensitive to magic.

The next morning, Wayne held the satisfied, sore-bodied redhead in his arms and whispered his request in her ear.

"My dear, I'm going to build a massive portal to transport a bunch of big guys from Toussaint to our Wolffist Witcher's castle, Kaer Morhen."

"This matter is very confidential, and I only trust you, which is why I asked you for help."
