Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 78 Three Crows

This banquet served as both a housewarming party and a farewell dinner. Wayne didn't have many friends in Vizima City; the only ones who could be considered upper-class were Revaden and Kayla.

Others, such as the dwarf in the blacksmith's shop and several childhood acquaintances in the Old York Inn, were all friends from the streets.

The Little Earth Spirit family couldn't possibly appear openly at the banquet in the city, so all in all, they probably didn't exceed twenty people.

He's a person who enjoys lively gatherings, and this time he planned to invite all his friends to his home for a dinner party, so he decided to have an outdoor barbecue feast in the backyard.

I went to the market to buy all kinds of meat, vegetables and fruits, and I plan to marinate them and show off my skills at the dinner party so that everyone can have a happy dinner.

As for alcoholic beverages, the dozen or so bottles of fine wine that Kayla gave him were certainly not used to entertain guests.

Moreover, most dwarves don't actually enjoy drinking elegant wine; they prefer large gulps of beer and strong liquor that makes them feel hot all over.

Therefore, he simply bought seven or eight large barrels of Vigema Champion and more than a dozen bottles of various flavored fruit wines from Old York's shop, spending a total of four hundred orens, which was quite a hefty sum.

While preparing the ingredients for the dinner, Wayne suddenly remembered that Rewardon, who had helped him a lot in many ways, really liked the bear paw dish he cooked.

Since the dinner table was lacking some game, he mounted his horse, took the longbow that Toruville had given him, and prepared to go hunting in the forest to try his luck.

With his archery skills from his previous life, although he is not a master archer now, he is still much better than the average hunter.

Once he has some free time, he will definitely put in a lot of effort to improve his archery skills to a level that is unimaginable to ordinary people.

After all, in the Middle Ages, where cold weapons were the primary weapon, a skilled archer could often cause more damage and threat than a steel sword or a few spells.

However, as he rode his horse through the gates of Vijma, heading towards the forest...

But just then, they saw three strangely dressed people walking towards them on the road ahead.

The leader was a middle-aged man, somewhat short and stout, with thick chestnut curly hair. He wore a cotton long gown and a dark brown belted coat, with faded emblems sewn on his clothes. The coat was yellow, and three black birds stood side by side in the middle. He wore riding boots and carried no weapons.

That wasn't particularly surprising, but the two people following behind him were quite conspicuous.

They were two girls with wheat-colored skin, distinctive blue tattoos on their faces, confident demeanor, and striking beauty. They also had excellent figures, unlike the delicate physiques of ordinary women, but rather powerful and athletic builds like cheetahs.

Even in the somewhat chilly springtime, they were still dressed quite lightly, wearing black strapless tops of some kind of leather that revealed their toned abs, and long, straight, beautiful legs encased in lynx leather shorts that only covered the top of their thighs.

They wore distinctive chainmail on their shoulders, gloves, and leg armor, and the hilts of two military knives could be seen on their shoulders.

Wayne narrowed his eyes. He could recognize that these were clearly the attire of Zerekhan female warriors, as recorded in the books of Kaer Morhen. The sabers behind them were the famous Zerekhan sabers.

The short, stout man's attire, the three black bird emblem, and the distinctive features of the two Zerikan girls following behind him instantly brought a name to Wayne's mind.

Three crows, Borchi.

As for his other name, sorry, it was too long and too convoluted for Wayne to remember.

Wayne was impressed by this person because of the three raven Borch. He was not human, but a golden dragon that could stand at the top of the wizarding world's power, a golden dragon that could transform into a human. Even in the entire wizarding world, he was almost a unique existence.

It seemed that because Wayne had been staring at him for so long, Borch also noticed the young man riding towards him.

When he saw Wayne's distinctive amber cat-like eyes, Borch was momentarily stunned, then a look of great interest appeared on his chubby face.

He kicked his horse, urging it to speed up, and rode up to Wayne, saying:

"Excuse me, young sir, are you a Witcher?"

Upon hearing Borch's question, Wayne's expression remained unchanged, but his mind raced.

According to the original plot development, this point in time should indeed be approaching the time when the dragon-slaying scene in the story takes place.

Without his presence, Geralt would likely have already gone to another city to find work, and then encountered Borch during a commission to deal with petrified lizards, leading to the subsequent events.

Now that he's here, everything has become completely different from the past.

But he didn't have time to think about it. Wayne, with a faint smile on his face, nodded to Borch and said:

"That's right, I am a Witcher."

Borch immediately showed an excited expression, clapped his hands, and said happily:

"That's wonderful. I've heard tales of witchers throughout my travels in the northern kingdoms and I'm very interested in your profession. It's a pity I've never had the chance to meet you."

"My name is Borch, and my friends call me the Three Ravens. I am a knight who travels among the kingdoms."

"It may be a bit presumptuous of me, but I wonder if there is any opportunity today to invite you to have lunch with us?"

"We're heading into the city to rest, and since you're familiar with Vizima, you could choose the best tavern so we can experience the city's cuisine."

After Borch finished speaking, the two Zerikan girls behind him also showed interest, with bright smiles on their faces, and looked at Wayne with their sparkling eyes.

Wayne glanced up at the enthusiastic Borch, then looked at the two beautiful Zerikan girls following behind him.

To be honest, no matter how the plot develops later, being able to share lunch with a golden dragon who has transformed into a human and two beautiful women from foreign countries, listen to their experiences, and chat about each other's thoughts is a very interesting thing.

According to Wayne, the golden dragon who goes by the alias Three Crows is a good friend and worth befriending.

After considering for a few seconds, he nodded to Borch, a bright smile spreading across his face, and said:

"My name is Wayne, Mr. Borch."

"No need for that. I'd like to invite you to my house for lunch."

"I am a very curious person, and I am also very interested in a knight who has traveled to many countries."

After saying this, he glanced at the two Zerekan female warriors following behind Borch with a teasing look, and said with a smile:

"Moreover, it would be nice to have dinner with two beautiful girls from Zerike."

"As for my cooking skills, hehe, I'm not bragging, but once you've tasted my cooking, you'll know what real deliciousness is."

Borch hadn't expected the young witcher in front of him to be so enthusiastic, actually inviting him, whom he was meeting for the first time, to his home for dinner.

However, as a powerful golden dragon, he was naturally fearless and also very interested in the young man before him, so he said without hesitation:

"That's great, I love your hospitality, Wayne."

"However, as a guest, I cannot visit you empty-handed. Please take me to the best tavern in town first. I want to buy a few bottles of the finest wine as a gift for my visit."
