Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 315 Grand Master Tisaya

After a few minutes of consideration, Wayne agreed to the condition.

Just kidding, you've picked up an ancient bloodline owner for free, even though he's an illegitimate child, and we can't even be sure who his father is, or whether he's a boy or a girl.

However, this is ancient blood, which is an extremely precious resource, whether used as a witcher apprentice, a tool, or even, to put it more bluntly, as research material.

Perhaps only ignorant mortals like the Sintra royal family would regard this blessing of bloodline as a curse or a trouble.

Wayne could even imagine the expressions on the faces of the beautiful elven sorceress Francesca and the elven sage Ida if they knew that their Witcher Order had picked up an Ancient Blood for free in Cintra.

In the original story, the Wild Hunt spent over a decade chasing Ciri across countless worlds, ultimately failing themselves in the process, all to obtain a pure Elder Bloodline holder.

In the original story, Vigfortz was the same. He meticulously planned and conducted countless studies and conspired in numerous schemes. He even helped Emhyr ascend to the throne, but was ultimately killed by Geralt with a single sword strike, all for the sake of the Elder Blood.

Unexpectedly, things have taken a dramatic turn for the better. Lord Wayne didn't even have to use any special methods, and now this treasure is about to fall into his hands.

Is this also due to the influence of the luck attribute?

He was thinking about this question, but his face didn't show any joy, as he didn't want others to see his covetousness for the ancient bloodline.

"I agree to this condition, Your Majesty."

"However, I would like to ask His Majesty the King of East for a small favor, or perhaps His Excellency the Archdruid Mossak would also be of no concern."

King East, who was usually taciturn, was somewhat surprised to hear this, as he was unsure how he could help Wayne.

However, this king was a generous and magnanimous man who always repaid kindness. After listening to Wayne's words, he exchanged a glance with the old druid Mossak, and then said magnanimously:

"No problem, Wayne. You helped me rescue Pavita and spared me the pain of losing a loved one. You are a friend of the Sintra Royal Family forever. If you need any help, I will do my best without hesitation."

As expected of a generous Skellige man, unlike ordinary hypocritical nobles, they are all people who value relationships.

Wayne sighed inwardly, then couldn't help but smile, saying:

"It's nothing troublesome, Your Majesty."

Seeing everyone looking at him, he spoke calmly and slowly:

"As you all know, I have formed a new Witcher Order to change the wretched lives of Witchers and make my fellow countrymen's lives better."

"And there are not many witchers left, and all the major schools have been wiped out, which really saddens me."

"So, having heard that I have fellow witchers in the Skellige Isles, I wanted to meet them and have a chat."

"The Xiong School they formed has very little interaction with other schools of thought in the inland areas, and they don't know each other well. This may be a good opportunity for the Xiong School members to get to know each other."

"As the most prestigious figures in the Skellige Islands, I hope His Majesty East and His Excellency Mossack can introduce us to each other."

Upon hearing this, Easter laughed heartily, waved his hand, picked up a glass of strong liquor, downed it in one gulp, and said with hearty gusto:

"No problem at all, Wayne. It's a small matter, no need to make such a fuss."

"I will make arrangements for this after this banquet."

"Speaking of the Bear School Witchers, I met a few of them when I was young. One of them, Ned, a Bear School Witcher, left a deep impression on me."

"He looks like a giant bear standing up. Even among the strong Skellige warriors, few can grow to be as strong as him."

It was an unexpected bonus that King East had contact with the Witchers of the Bear School.

After completing another task without making a sound, Wayne was in a very good mood. He took out the elven wine he had brought back from another world from his spatial bracelet and drank with the people present, winning their sincere praise and bringing the banquet to a good close.

After the banquet ended, Wayne returned to the luxurious hotel and, after reuniting with his companions, announced to Geralt and the others that the mission was essentially complete.

For the next month or so, Princess Pawita will secretly give birth, while publicly claiming that she is recuperating and will not meet with anyone.

Geralt and Yennefer remained in Cintra to prevent any unforeseen events and continue protecting the Cintra royal family. They also served as practical mentors to Alex and Aragorn, helping the Kingdom of Cintra clear out the surrounding monsters and conduct real combat training.

Geralt and Yennefer had no objections to this arrangement. Although Geralt found it a bit boring and wanted to return to Kaer Morhen as soon as possible to continue enjoying life, he couldn't persuade his girlfriend Yennefer otherwise.

This voluptuous, dark-haired sorceress has been secretly observing Ciri, Geralt's chosen one, hoping to get closer to her.

She learned from the oracle of the lake goddess that this child was the offspring she had longed for, the child whose fate was intertwined with hers, so she cherished him dearly.

The reason why we are so concerned about the Kingdom of Sintra is largely due to this.

Meanwhile, the young slave girl, Sianna, will remain in the Kingdom of Sintra for the time being to handle matters related to the Wayne Merchant Guild.

Leaving aside Sintra, a rising kingdom, even the Skellige Islands, the most powerful maritime nation among the northern kingdoms, are worth the Wayne Merchant Guild's efforts to win over.

Given the current state of development in the Wizarding World, neither the North nor South continents have established a very powerful naval fleet. They are still at the stage of relying on courage and navigation skills to control ships. In these two aspects, the warriors of the Skellige Isles are undoubtedly the strongest.

If there were an opportunity to expand maritime trade, or even to usher in the Age of Exploration, it would be of epoch-making significance for the Wayne Merchant Guild.

After arranging the work for his subordinates, Wayne, as promised to the witch Lani, quickly arrived at the Aretusa Academy on the island of Shanides.

The ancient academy remained unchanged from when I last visited. Most of the students coming and going were young and beautiful female sorcerer apprentices. Under the protection of a huge barrier, the entire castle was filled with an atmosphere of mystery and wisdom.

At the academy, Wayne met Triss, the red-haired sorceress he hadn't seen for over half a month. This chief sorceress of the Witcher Order hadn't been slacking off at all; she spent most of her time in the library every day, researching a large amount of magical information, and was quite diligent.

When she discovered that her lover had come to the academy to visit her and was quite moved, she immediately put down her studies and stayed in the room with Wayne for a whole day and night without coming out, which made several of Triss's friends at the academy tease the two of them, either openly or subtly.

The current headmistress, Ms. Margarita, was still as enthusiastic as ever. After not seeing her for a long time, the sorceress with the perfect figure looked at the witcher Wayne with eyes that seemed like hooks, as if she wanted to lure him to bed and have a passionate lovemaking session if he wasn't careful.

However, because Triss was right beside him, Wayne did not act dissolutely. He was like a chaste and virtuous man, not flirting with other women and behaving quite well.

After spending two days at the academy, he made his request to Margarita, first spending about 200,000 orens to buy a copy of every ordinary book in the academy that was available for sale.

Then, relying on his good relationship with the female headmistress, he obtained the qualification to borrow restricted magic books that were not exactly top secrets from the library, and secretly copied all those books into Kael'thas's magic books.

Life at the academy was very peaceful, with virtually no disturbances. Every day, besides reading in the library, I would spend some time preparing food for Margarita and Triss.

The female principal still longed for his food. Every time they met, besides showing her craving for his strong physique, she was more eager to freeload off him.

Triss didn't mind the gluttonous headmistress, and Wayne certainly wouldn't refuse her either. After all, aside from being a bit of a nymphomaniac, Margarita was indeed a noble and quite capable sorceress, worthy of their friendship and recruitment.

And so Wayne stayed at the academy for half a month, acquiring a large number of books and materials.

Triss has completed most of her research and has gained more insights into the witcher mutation experiment.

Just before they were about to leave, Francesca suddenly contacted him and offered him an invitation.

Tisaya de Veris, the former headmistress of Aretusa Academy, whom many sorceresses called the Great Mentor, and a high-ranking sorceres and one of the members of the High Council of the Brotherhood of Sorcerers, wanted to meet with him, seemingly to discuss matters concerning the Witcher Order.

Francesca, as Tissaya's good friend, will also accompany her.
