The Witcher: Darkness Falls

"That's the Colosseum. Every year when there is a major festival in Toussaint, it becomes very lively here and tickets are hard to get." Regis said, pointing to an ancient building in the distance.

Lyon looked over and saw a circular stone building, about twenty meters high.

There was a stone archway facing them, which was now closed by a door that looked very heavy. There were two exquisite sculptures of knights standing at the door.

This was built by elves, and you can tell from the exquisite carvings on the outside.

But now, there is no one outside the arena, it is very deserted.

"In six days it will be May Day, a very grand festival. Toussaint is usually filled with the festive atmosphere.

Flowers, fine wine, bards, beautiful and sexy wine girls, the Duke's guard of honor and so on can be seen everywhere.

But now, there is nothing. Maybe the Duke is rehearsing in the castle, but now there is nothing to be seen.

Everyone was fleeing out of Toussaint. Even people who knew nothing could feel the depressing atmosphere here.

well……"

Regis sighed, feeling sorry for Toussaint's current situation.

Leon looked around. He didn't feel any festive atmosphere while riding here. There were outsiders like him running around everywhere. They looked like bounty hunters or mercenaries.

In addition, the largest number is the Beauclair Guard and the Wandering Knights, who patrol everything in Beauclair to prevent some lawless people from taking advantage of the monsters' rampage to cause trouble to the local residents of Toussaint.

Most of those fleeing now are those who have recently settled in Toussaint, so it is not a problem.

A large part of Toussaint's native residents have not left, after all, their relatives and friends are here and they have stable jobs.

If they leave, where will they go and what will they do?

Coupled with Toussaint's relaxed tax system, many people only pay a small portion of their income in taxes.

Once they leave here, they will never be able to enjoy such good policies again.

"Is your friend the owner of the estate here? A whole vineyard, it sounds huge!" Leon asked.

Regis thought about it, shook his head and said, "Well... not really. Although the White Crow Vineyard is his, he doesn't manage it. He has entrusted it to others.

Moreover, most of the time, he is not here, I can just borrow the house here to live temporarily. "

Leon nodded. That was fine.

He thought that if he could make use of the power of the vineyard owner here, perhaps there would be a way to directly solve the old wizard's housing problem without having to trouble the witch Fringilla.

Originally, he came here to keep the appointment just to repay the other party's favor.

It would be very troublesome if we continued to trouble the other party and continue to owe debt to him because of the old wizard's affairs.

“Don’t worry, we’ll find a way to find the old man’s place to live.” Regis saw what Leon was worried about, so he immediately comforted him.

Soon, they came to a vineyard. Through the fences surrounding the manor, they could see the grapes growing well. There would definitely be a good harvest this year!

"Come on." Regis dismounted, pushed open the gate and walked in.

"We... I mean, do we need to shout? To inform the people inside that someone is visiting. Wouldn't it be rude to just go in?" Leon asked hesitantly.

Regis turned around and comforted him, "Don't worry, I know what I am doing."

Leon said no more. He left the horse outside and followed the old wizard.

"Oh! There are so many grapes, but it's a pity that they haven't borne fruit yet." The old wizard said, looking at a large field of grape vines in front of him.

"Hurry up and follow us." Leon said, pulling the old wizard to follow Regis. He was afraid that the old wizard would reach out to break the grapevines.

Regis had arrived at the door of the villa and he first reached out and knocked on the door.

After a while, a tall and thin man wearing a printed jacket and tuxedo opened the door.

"Who are you looking for?" the middle-aged man asked, looking back at the same time. His eyes were immediately attracted by Leon.

"Oh my God, a demon hunter!" the middle-aged man said in surprise.

Regis pulled out a wolf-shaped pendant from his pocket and said, "I'm Geralt's friend. I want to borrow the manor. He told me that I only need to take this."

The middle-aged man withdrew his gaze, carefully examined the pendant handed over by Regis, and finally nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Geralt ordered it. Excuse me, let me introduce myself. My name is Hope Derek, and I am the supervisor hired by Lord Geralt to take care of this manor.

What's your name yet?"

"Emile Regis," Regis said.

Hope murmured, "Emile Regis... Regis... Oh! Of course, Lord Geralt mentioned your name again, please come in!

You came at the right time. Sir Geralt and Lady Yennefer also came here a few days ago, but they just left."

Regis was a little surprised and said, "Geralt and Yennefer are here too? What a coincidence, we haven't seen each other for a long time.

Could you please tell me where they went and how long they stayed there? "

Hope took out a pocket watch from his bosom and glanced at it, then nodded and said, "It has been exactly three minutes since then. A guard came to find Sir Geralt and said that there were giants near Leuscann, and asked Sir Geralt to stop them from approaching the Beauclair Palace.

As for Lady Yennefer, I don't know. I just saw a little bird fly into the manor, and then she said she had something to go out for, opened a teleportation array and left."

Regis nodded, and he turned and asked Leon to bring the old wizard over.

However, Leon behind him had already widened his eyes in surprise: "You mean, this vineyard belongs to Geralt of Rivia? The legendary witcher?"

Regis said nothing, but Hope nodded and proudly announced, "Yes, that's him, the legendary White Wolf, the monster slayer, the last master of the Wolf School, the legendary demon hunter Geralt!"

Leon looked at Regis, who nodded and said, "Yes, the friend I'm talking about is Geralt."

Leon looked around, and the surprise in his heart quickly subsided.

He thought that to see Geralt, he had to go to Kaer Morhen, the witcher's base, but he didn't expect to see him here!

"Leon, come quickly, we have to help Geralt." Regis said, "Giants are not easy to deal with."

Leon came back to his senses, took a deep breath, took the old wizard over, and said to Hope: "Can you help take care of him? He has some dementia. I plan to help Geralt deal with the giant."

Hope readily agreed: "Of course, that's no problem. On behalf of Lord Geralt, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you.

Come in, old man."

The old wizard immediately hid behind Leon and asked worriedly, "What are you going to do? Are you going to throw me away? How much money did he give you?"

Leon explained: "Just wait here for a while, I will be back as soon as I finish my work, don't worry, Mr. Hope won't do anything to you."

The old wizard shook his head vigorously and said, "Impossible, I'm not going anywhere!"

At this time, Hope turned back into the house and brought out a plate. He opened the lid and said, "Old man, I have blueberry pie here with fresh milk. Would you like to come in and try it?"

The old wizard immediately stepped forward, took the blueberry pie with both hands, and said with a smile: "Oh! Thank you so much, I am so embarrassed... Mm~ It smells so good!"

Leon turned and left the manor with Regis, riding towards Leuscann.
