Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 293 Reliable Lani

Wayne was indeed a little worried. It would be fine if it were other people, but the female warlocks like Sylvanas, Sabina, and Fringilla, or other male warlocks whose names he didn't know.

Even if these people died or suffered some cruel treatment, it was only understandable to him, or rather, it was out of necessity. After all, he was possessed by a demon god and could not control his body. Everything he did was not of his own volition.

Well, those behaviors were probably all driven by his subconscious, but he lacked rational control.

Yennefer, however, was different. The two had known each other for several years. This woman was passionate and decisive, not only Geralt's former lover but also someone who had helped him a lot. Although she had a somewhat strong personality, she was definitely a friend.

If she also dies at his hands, Wayne will truly have no face to face Geralt after this matter is over.

Fortunately, after hearing his question, Lilith, the goddess of the lake, simply tilted her head and said softly:

"We found you the day after you set off."

"The power of the other world suppresses our magical races more severely than you imagine."

"Only after the spatial rift was sealed, and the power of the other world lost its source and gradually dissipated, were we able to enter that mountain range."

"However, we haven't found the corpses of those warlocks you mentioned. We're not sure if you killed them. You've killed so many monsters, they're piled up like mountains, and there are corpses and bits of flesh everywhere, numbering in the thousands."

"Under the influence of the evil god's power, your combat power has been brought to its limit. Not only do you possess extremely powerful self-healing abilities and a body that is almost tireless and full of destructive desire, but even your physical appearance has become somewhat similar to that of the legendary demon."

"If it weren't for your magician friend sealing the power within you and creating a powerful magical barrier inside you, perhaps we wouldn't have been able to stop your actions either, and could only watch you continue your endless destruction."

"However, you don't need to worry about Ms. Yennefer's safety. She is still alive and quite safe."

"She has an item I gave her, and I can sense her presence."

"This lady has left the area of ​​the mist and is currently still in the Kingdom of Cordwin."

"But we don't know any more information. All we can do is help you suppress the dark power within you and prevent it from eroding your heart and driving you into a berserk state."

Hearing the lake goddess's caring tone, Wayne felt quite warm inside. Although Goddess Lilith, like the other three goddesses, lacked common sense and was not as down-to-earth as humans.

However, they are indeed kind-hearted, always working silently for the world without showing off their achievements. They are not like the goddesses in some fantasy worlds who are high and mighty and deceive other warriors into giving their lives.

Since Yennefer's life is not in danger, the other problems are minor. Although the goddesses don't know what he did when he went berserk, Lani definitely knows more than they do.

Then, when no one is around, he can get more information from Lani.

Seeing this, Wayne stepped forward and embraced the goddess of the lake, then leaned over and gave her a tender, deep kiss, thanking her for her hard work in rescuing him over the past month.

Lilith seemed to sense Wayne's feelings as well, and she also stretched out her fair and slender arms to embrace the man's strong back, responding to him gently.

After kissing for four or five minutes, even the goddess who had maintained a pure and holy expression began to blush and her eyes became misty.

Wayne gently released his embrace, chuckled softly, and said:

"It's time for me to leave, Lilith."

"I had been missing for over a month, and I hadn't informed my friends before embarking on this mission."

"They must be very worried about me, I have to explain to them in person."

As he spoke, Wayne glanced back somewhat guiltily at the other three goddesses who were still lying in the lake, fast asleep from exhaustion.

"Thank you so much for your help, and the other three ladies. Without you, I might have turned into a mindless monster."

"When we meet again, I will definitely prepare a special gift for you and the other three ladies."

Upon hearing this, the goddess of the lake regained her composure and nodded.

However, she did not release Wayne's body, but said in a tone that carried a hint of warning:

"Don't rush off, Wayne."

"As I said before, the evil power within you has only been temporarily suppressed by us. Until a solution is found, you will need us to suppress it again every two weeks to a month."

"Otherwise, once this time has passed, you may fall into that berserk state where your body is out of control again. The longer the interval, the longer the berserk state will last."

"Until finally, your will is completely submerged in that evil power, and you become its puppet."

"Furthermore, you must not generate excessively strong destructive urges or anger, otherwise they may trigger the evil forces within you, causing you to do many irrational things."

After hearing what the goddess of the lake said, Wayne found his brows furrowing involuntarily. It seemed that Baal's magic was more troublesome than he had imagined.

Although the power of hell greatly increased his physical strength, far exceeding that of a witcher, it also limited his use of chaotic magic.

This forced him to transform from a magic master into a physical damage-dealing warrior.

What's more troublesome now is that his body needs regular care, and he can only stay normal with the help of several goddesses.

It seems that for a long time to come, he will have to find a way to get rid of the remaining power of the Demon King Baal within him.

Facing the gaze of the goddess of the lake, Wayne nodded and said with gratitude:

"I understand, Your Majesty. I will be relying on you and the other ladies for a long time to come."

"I will build a temple specifically for you in the place where I live. It is a very safe place to live, and you will definitely like it there."

………………

After leaving the beautiful lake where the Lake Goddess lived, Wayne found himself still within the territory of the Kingdom of Cordwin, but his exact location was unknown.

He subconsciously took out the magic flying carpet from his spatial bracelet, but stopped halfway through.

Because Wayne suddenly realized that he could no longer use Chaos Magic as freely as he used to, and could no longer manipulate the magic carpet to fly in the sky for long periods of time.

Thinking this, he took out the magic bell hanging from his waist and shook it gently.

A warhorse, pure white and handsome, resembling a unicorn, appeared before Wayne.

It raised its head, stretched its beautiful neck, let out a clear hiss, and then turned to look at Wayne, its bright, watery eyes seeming to communicate directly with its owner.

After Wayne mounted Udis, the soul steed, he didn't rush to urge the horse forward. Instead, he looked behind him at the exquisite puppet that had been hovering in mid-air, its form obscured, holding a giant magic book and watching intently. He sincerely thanked it, saying:

"Thank you, Lani."

"I've already heard Lilith say that you saved me from losing control."

Hearing Wayne's call, Lani's doll materialized from mid-air and said in a calm tone:

"I accept your thanks, Wayne."

"The otherworldly magic that invaded your body is indeed very mysterious, and it seems to have traces of several major runes at the same time."

"However, this power seems to have been stripped of its will, and can only control your body through the nature of the power itself. The reason you have become violent is simply because this is the nature of this power."

"Even if I do nothing, this power will slowly seep into your soul. After a decade or so, you will gradually awaken from this power and fully master it."

"However, I think you might not like this method, which is why you sealed it away."

"Tell me if you want to break this seal."

"Power itself is neither good nor bad; it all depends on the choices the person wields it makes."
