The Fantastic Journey of the Void Mage

Chapter 484 The Bloody Baron
"Josh, what are we going to do now?"

Just when Josh was in a daze, Geralt asked.Surveying a scene was not difficult for him, but the problem was that he knew that the baron had a problem, he deliberately concealed something and Geralt was very unhappy, and even he planned to use his best method to solve the problem.

What is Geralt's best method?
That is to use his steel sword to force the baron to hide something, so that he can complete this task more efficiently.

But now, with Josh by his side, he can also consider Josh's abilities. Geralt still remembers Josh's abilities better than when he confused himself and said a lot of things.

"Actually, there is nothing to see. There are traces of fighting in this house, right?"

"Of course, isn't that obvious?"

"Please, if I can see so many things, do I still need you to go to my place to deal with these crap things?"

"."

Well, what Josh said is indeed reasonable.But what makes Geralt a headache is that he seems to have to find the owner of the talisman he just picked up. To be honest, this talisman can be used for decoration, or to prevent some low-level ghosts from harassing , God knows who made it out to deceive people.

"Looks like we need to make a trip, doesn't it?"

"Actually, that's not necessary. Go ahead and call the Baron in."

Geralt was taken aback when he heard Josh's words, but he quickly realized it.

Nodding his head, he walked out directly. Since Josh did this, it means that Josh has a way to solve the problem this time.

Surely Josh could work it out, because he really didn't want to run to some witch doctor and have to help him find that lost sheep.

Especially the witch doctor and the sheep seemed to have some very 'special' relationship, which made Josh a little unbearable.

He has no interest at all in seeing the upgraded version of the legendary "Human and Animal Coexistence in Harmony", nor is he interested in watching the witch doctor perform his own magic and communicate with the soul. This is too much trouble, and Josh can do it at will arrive.

"Do you know what happened to the baroness and his daughter?" Seeing Geralt walking out, Ciri suddenly asked.

"Of course I know, don't worry. There's nothing wrong with this guy, Philip. Except for drinking and beating his wife and causing some bad things to happen, he's actually doing pretty good things." Josh gave Shirley a comforting look.

"Then why did you go too far before? You almost hanged him, and you said that Wei Lun can change a lord."

"Although I approve of him very much, don't you know what his subordinates are like? And this guy is not an officially recognized baron, he is self-proclaimed. Of course, I didn't think about killing him. Give him some Threats are enough."

"Hehe, the threat from the magician?"

"Yes, don't you think he gave in?"

Shirley really didn't know how to evaluate Josh. He actually took it for granted after doing such a thing.

Of course, the baron is fine, but what if you don't control it well?After all, he was someone who helped him. Josh's cooking really dissatisfied Shirley.

But Ciri didn't have a chance to say anything, the baron had already followed Geralt in.

At this time, the baron didn't look very energetic, or he heard Geralt say that Josh, a mysterious magician, let him in. He couldn't help but think about the thing that he was almost hanged before.

"Is there anything I can do for you, Your Excellency the Mage." For Josh, he was still a little respectful.

"I think we already know what the development of the matter is like." Josh ignored the Baron's attitude and said to himself.

"Oh yeah, so who took my wife and daughter."

"Although I don't know why your relationship is so bad, it's not a good thing to beat a woman."

After Josh finished speaking, the whole room became dark, and at the same time, transparent figures constructed by magic also appeared in it.

What happened next was a family ethics drama. Watching the baron beat his wife while drunk and caused a miscarriage, both Geralt and Ciri were moved.

No wonder they will run away, so it is!

At this moment, even Ciri, who had received the Baron's help, couldn't help looking at the Baron with a dangerous gaze. His actions were indeed too hated!That was his own wife, and his own children!
"So what you're hiding is these things!" Geralt's words were still calm and deep, but anyone could feel the coldness in his tone.

The baron didn't reply, but stared blankly at the scene in front of him, and he sighed slowly until everything dissipated.

He never dreamed that this magician could restore all the past of that night. He knew that he might not be able to explain it.

"Okay, Geralt, let's listen to His Excellency's explanation." Josh stopped Geralt, who was about to step forward to question him. Some things need to be said by Philip himself.

"Don't tell me you have something to hide about beating your wife?" Shirley couldn't help asking at this moment.

"Hey." The baron sighed, glanced at the three people in front of him, finally locked his eyes on Josh, and finally nodded: "I know that I am not a good father and husband, but it may be too late to make up for it now .”

The baron shook his head and continued to speak: "I am a Temerian veteran who occupied the local lord's castle Crow's Nest and claimed to be the new ruler here. How ridiculous, isn't it, but what absurdity in this age of war Anything can happen."

Afterwards, the bloody baron told all about himself, which also gave Geralt and Ciri a deeper understanding of what kind of person this baron really is.

Philip and his wife were very affectionate at first, and his wife often waited on a garden chair for the Baron to return and bring him a flower.

The baron knew that his wife loved flowers, and even prepared a garden for his wife.

The baron and his wife fell in love at first sight. He went from a nobody to a senior officer alone, and he and his wife walked together.

It's a pity that there is no way for a beautiful love to appear so strong under the cruel background of the times.

With the start of the third Civil War, the baron went to the battlefield again, and this time the battle became more and more exciting, which made the baron unable to go home for a long time.

So he can only leave his wife to manage the family alone. Unfortunately, his wife met his childhood sweetheart at this time.

It may be due to the long time of not being able to see each other, and the baron already has the bad habit of paralyzing himself with alcohol, and his wife cheated.

When the baron returned home elated because the war was peaceful, he found that everything had changed, which broke the baron from the inside.

The collapsed Baron Philip used his small knife hanging on his chest all year round in front of his wife, chopped the man into pieces one by one, and fed the pieces to the dogs!

Such a crazy and cruel approach made his wife go crazy, but she had no way to stop the baron from doing it, she could only watch her current lover being torn to pieces in front of her eyes!
And this time, the baron beat his wife for the first time, and it was the beginning of everything.

At that time they already had a daughter, but it was probably too young to remember.

All she can remember is her mother's grief and her father beating her mother.

And the baron didn't drive or kill his wife because he always loved his wife deeply, and he still stayed by his side as before, hoping to restore their love.

But he was wrong, because his daughter always followed his mother after being away all the year round, and maybe the beginning of all this was not the baron's fault, but it still couldn't be an excuse for his subsequent alcoholism, domestic violence, arbitrariness and disability .

So his daughter also hated him. The baron couldn't accept such a result, but he still wanted to save everything in his heart.

From then on, the baron needed alcohol to numb himself even more, not only because of the wounds left by the war, but also because of the wounds in his heart that were constantly being torn apart, alcohol was needed to help him.

Eventually it all broke out again, and after another argument his wife suffered a miscarriage.

Since then, his wife and his daughter disappeared from his sight, but the baron didn't want to lose face and was worried about their safety, so he tried his best to find them to save his face.

"If I hadn't met you, I really don't know what to do." The baron, who had told everything, looked very calm now, if not, his eyes were slightly red, telling his sadness.

"I see." Josh nodded, glanced at Ciri, who also had red eyes, and Geralt, who was still silent, and Josh could only say: "This is indeed a tragedy, but I hope it will continue." There is room for redemption."

"I hope so too, and have been working in that direction."

"How do you deal with children?"

"I left her in the dry well in the backyard God, I"

Before the baron finished speaking, Geralt twitched his brows: "If an aborted baby is not properly buried, it will turn into a corpse baby and go back to attack the person who abandoned it. Your Excellency the baron, it seems that this time you really have something to do." Trouble."

"Tell me, what do I need to do." The baron sighed and asked seriously: "I caused all this, then I will make up for the wrong things I have done."

"Of course I need you, Your Excellency the Baron." Geralt nodded, "We'll deal with it later. For now, please tell me what happened after Ciri."
