Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 93 The stage of fate needs supporting roles

The two groups of people who caused the dispute each had their own reasons for not wanting to attract attention, so after the storm subsided they tacitly avoided official personnel and left quickly.

Unlike the three who went into the mountains, the three people from the Viper School chose to go north, preparing to cross the Yaruga River and return to Reso's hometown, Guleta, to try their luck. When it was getting dark, they had already left the Manada Valley and found a leeward place on the roadside to camp for the night.

Even demon hunters are reluctant to travel at night.

Because they felt it was too humiliating to be beaten up by a child, and because they had lost a large sum of reward money, the three witchers lost interest. They sat down around the fire, and the flames made their faces look gloomy, but no one was interested in talking.

"They really are like three stray dogs!" An elegant aria suddenly sounded in the darkness. The vicious sarcasm was like scratching his heart with claws, bringing out the witcher's pent-up anger.

Three pairs of mutant pupils simultaneously stared at the direction where the voice came from; "Who is it? Do you dare to stand in front so that we can see it?"

A shabby and unkempt figure dressed in khaki cloth walked out of the darkness, completely exposed in the firelight; the three demon hunters were simultaneously alarmed because their originally sharp senses did not hear any footsteps.

The way this person appeared was like a shadow, silently.

"Who are you?" When asking the question, Reso kept one hand on the hilt of the dagger and the other hand hanging down, ready to release the seal at any time as needed; beside him, Oxs and Serrit made the same gesture.

"Didn't we just meet? In the Manada Valley, when you had a conflict with the little count." The man said slowly.

When the other party's voice rang out, the memories of the three witchers were magically revived at the same time; they naturally remembered the man who suddenly appeared.

"Yes, you were standing behind the boy at the time; that kid was not only a warlock, but also a count?" Oaks was upset about the fact that a lot of his hair was burnt.

Lei Suo stared at the newcomer and repeated the question: "Who are you?"

As the strongest and most meticulous one among the three, Reso was keenly aware of more anomalies and dangers; he did not take for granted the memories that suddenly emerged in his mind.

"I was right. You are an interesting person." The man in yellow praised the performance of the bald demon hunter. "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Gaunter O'Dimm. You can also call me Mirror Master."

"Mirror Master, what do you do? Selling mirrors?" Oaks interrupted; his voice was alert and frivolous, and he had no idea that he was talking to the devil.

O'Dimm didn't take it as an offense, and replied with a contemptuous smile towards ants: "You can say that. However, the mirror I sell is more special; it can not only reflect a person's appearance, but also reflect the deepest desires hidden in a person's heart."

"No matter what your mirror reflects, we are not interested." Reso was obviously the leader. After he spoke, the other two fell silent.

Master Mirror insisted: "Don't you even have the interest to try it out? My mirror has clearly revealed your thoughts! Don't you just want to return to Guswide Castle and rebuild the Viper School?"

The devil's words caused a stir in the witcher's heart.

Just like the Wolf School has Kaer Morhen, the Viper School once had its own castle, which is Goswid Castle in the Tir Tosha Mountains. However, as time passed, the castle was besieged by the Nilfgaardian army and has been lost for many years; the surviving members of the school are also scattered all over the place. The snake school witcher is in turmoil, but still remains unmoved; "There is no need to use a mirror to look, everyone in the Viper School knows this."

"Yes, there are many people who know about this, but not many who can help you do this." O'Dimm looked at the three demon hunters with a smile, like a predator staring at its prey. Compared with the demon hunters, He was more like a venomous snake.

"The person who can help us can't be you, right?"

"Me? Of course not! I'm just a small businessman who travels all over the country. How can I have such great ability?" The devil persuaded the demon hunters, "But I can show you a clear way. If you can seize the opportunity, you may be able to realize your wish."

"Hurry up and speak!" Oaks spoke again, with an irritable look on his face.

O'Dimm smiled sinisterly: "It was the Emperor of Nilfgaard who destroyed Guswid Castle, and it is naturally the Emperor of Nilfgaard who can rebuild Guswid. If you can make enough contributions to the emperor, there will certainly be hope for rebuilding the castle. As it happens, I have some definite news here. Soon, someone will assassinate Emhyr Emreis."

The night wind blew, and the sound of the wind gradually covered up the subsequent conversation between the demon and the witcher.

At the same time, in a valley in the Amel Mountains, Lin You was still maintaining his leisurely attitude of camping, cooking delicious food around a campfire.

The difference is that this time they didn't have barbecue, but cooked a pot of hot seafood noodles. The great poet Dandelion, who shared the food, sighed sincerely: "If I can be treated like this when traveling, I can stay away from home for the rest of my life."

"You talk as if you have a home." Lin You, who had eaten and drunk his fill, was boiling water to make tea while complaining about the poet's scumbag life. "Is your home in the palace of the Duchess, the dormitory of the female students in Niubao, or the cowshed of a farmer?"

"It's human nature to pursue beautiful things. You're still young and can't understand it." Dandelion defended himself convincingly.

This famous poet has a talent that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve. It seems that he can get along with anyone quickly, even if he was trembling with fear a few hours ago and still has an unknown future.

Lin You sneered: "The reason why we are human is precisely because we know how to restrain our nature; this is what distinguishes us from beasts."

"Well said, I should write this down." Dandelion clapped his hands in approval. Soon the aroma of tea filled the air and the poet picked up the cup and drank without hesitation.

The writer's heart moved slightly, and he looked towards a dark place following the guidance of the divine fluctuations; Gaunt O'Dimm appeared there.

"Master Mirror, you disappeared for several hours. Did you find any business opportunities on the road?" Lin You greeted leisurely.

"I guess so! I went to meet those snake demon hunters and sold them a contract." O'Dimm was surprisingly frank. "The stage of fate needs more supporting roles."
