Dick quickly spoke to comfort, "Duke, please calm down and let us speak slowly."
Anna took a few deep breaths, calmed down his emotions, and apologized:
"I just suddenly heard the news about my sister, and I felt a little embarrassed.
So everyone, please describe it."
After that, Dick described what happened last night in detail.
Of course, in order to avoid worrying Anna in front of him again, Dick concealed the matter of Higher Vampire.
Anna sighed deeply and unconsciously rubbed the family crest on his waist with his fingertips:
"That is indeed my sister. I didn't expect her to be in such a miserable state.
I knew that she had been mistreated by some nobles when she was deported, but I didn't expect that she would become a thief.
It's all my fault that I couldn't stand in front of her to resist those malicious thoughts.
"Don't worry, Duke Anna. They are still in the Bacchus Empire. Maybe they are here at Lady of the Lake Town. We will be able to find clues soon."
Leave this task to us." Dick said again.
"Then it's up to you, three master demon hunters."
Anna nodded gratefully and patted his hands gently. Immediately, a guard carried three heavy money bags and handed them to the three demon hunters.
"Everyone, I will hold a celebration party tonight.
At that time, you can just return to the forecourt of the fortress. Geralt, remember to bring the sorceress with you."
"Of course you can, Duke Anna."
This is a party specially organized by Anna for everyone.
The aristocrats of this era seem to like to hold banquets when celebrating, and Dick indeed likes this kind of occasion.
In the evening, everyone had arrived.
Little Yennefer rested in the hotel for a day. His body has already recovered and he is playing around with Geralt's thick arm.
The banquet was held in the kitchen garden of the fortress built against the mountain. Twelve stone lampposts carved with lake fairies surrounded the central fountain. The magic-blessed spring water condensed into constellation patterns that were constantly reorganized in the air.
The party was crowded with people, mostly Bacchus Empire nobles and wealthy businessmen.
These upper-class people do not work all year round. Most of the time they have free time, so they gather together to have fun and relieve their boredom.
Especially at this time, Snake Cult was no longer popular, and the nobles and wealthy businessmen clung to the Bacchus Family.
Although there are still some nobles who are loyal believers of Snake Cult, most of them have already returned to their hearts.
When Duke Anna appeared in formal attire and surrounded by people, the guests cheered.
Anna kept the corners of his mouth just right and in line with etiquette, and greeted everyone calmly and calmly.
From the Grand Marquis to the newly wealthy businessman, she has not left behind anyone.
Moreover, the content of her words fit each person's identity, neither making the other person feel wary or embarrassed, nor making them feel the slightest bit embarrassed.
This is the way she learned to greet everyone during more than ten years of studying royal etiquette.
Afterwards, she told Dick and the group that they could walk around and play as they pleased.
If you get tired of playing, just say hello to her and a room has been arranged in the fortress.
Looking for her sister will be done tomorrow.
As for Jimmy, don't be in a hurry, just sit back a little.
The couple Little Yennefer and Geralt always stick together, but Russell and Dick simply separate from them and walk around at large entertainment parties.
Although the surrounding nobles knew the reputation of the witcher and wanted to say hello, they still kept a distance from them due to Dick's recent Red Hair Devil rumors and for the sake of their lives.
Dick is thankful for this, he actually hates irrelevant people getting too close to him.
When he and Russell came to a big tree, he found a thin old man with a snake wrapped around his shoulders, hanging two meters above the ground.
The old man closed his palms, and the hem of his silk robe fell strangely still, as if frozen by invisible amber.
"As expected of a master snake charmer from overseas, he can actually fly!"
There were exclamations from the guests nearby.
The performer slowly raised his head with a solemn expression.
"I am a God-given person. I have been given extraordinary abilities by the gods. I can float in the air because of the support of many elemental spirits.
Today is the gathering of Duke Anna. I am here to perform a miracle and I hope you can lend a helping hand.
Just a little Kelang can make God more happy, send down auspiciousness and bless you."
Beside, an aristocratic woman with a small fan and heavy makeup was obviously moved.
As soon as she took out a shining golden Kelang from her sleeve, the caster's eyes suddenly lit up, and then returned to calm.
The ordinary people around did not notice this scene, but Russell and Dick were demon hunters. They looked at each other and smiled at first. Dick walked directly in front of this man and waved his arms horizontally under his buttocks without touching any support.
The performer has a mysterious smile on his face.
As he hummed softly in his mouth, the giant python on his shoulder slowly raised its head and stared at Dick.
"Well, like my pet, it has snake eyes. Are you the unique witcher in this Panda Continent?"
Do you think I'm trying to please others?
No, this is a real miracle."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes and clasped his hands together. The giant python coiled around his shoulders obediently and closed its eyes.
There were exclamations from all around again.
When the noble lady was about to hand the gold coin to the performer, Russell laughed and took a step forward to block the way.
His rude behavior made the noble woman snort in embarrassment.
However, when she noticed Russell School of the Lynx's strong and scarred shoulders exposed under the light armor, her almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, her gaze seemed to be drawn, and she could no longer move away from him.
Russell didn't pay attention to this scene. At the moment, he just wanted to see how Dick would expose the other party.
Dick didn't speak, just paced around the performer intently.
After walking around in a circle, he tentatively stretched his arms and found that he could only reach the opponent's crotch.
The performer squinted at Dick for a moment, and then closed his eyes like a master.
Dick squatted down slightly with his legs, then suddenly jumped up, far higher than this man.
The dagger in his hand slashed through the air, and blue sparks burst out wherever the blade struck. Amidst the screams of the space being torn apart, countless crystal dust poured down like a falling galaxy.
This scene was so frightening that the woman in the front row, who was staring closely at Russell, almost knocked over the crystal glass on the table.
The performer sat down on the ground and quickly got up from the ground.
The giant python was also trembling with fear, tightly wrapped around one of his arms, and hid its head in the gap behind him, looking timidly at Dick with one eye.
"Witcher, why do you have to target me?"
Dick held up half of the cut transparent spar plate, and Moonlight reflected spider web-like cracks on the edges:
"This thing is quite interesting, it can actually hide under the moonlight.
But it can't always be like this."
"I want you to take care of it!"
The performer snatched the support from Dick's hand, casually wrapped the giant snake around his neck, squeezed through the crowd like a thief, and ran towards the gate of the fortress.
The surrounding guests also understood at this time that this seemingly elegant master turned out to be an old liar. They shook their heads in disappointment and gathered around their own tables to start chatting.
But the young aristocratic woman licked her lips, put a weak and boneless hand on Russell's shoulder and rubbed it gently,
"Master Witcher, will you stay in the fortress these days?"
"I want you to take care of it!"
Russell responded carelessly and said the same words as the old liar just now.
The lady's bright red nails dug deeply into the fan bone, her gold-leafed eyelids trembled violently, and a curse with the scent of roses squeezed out from between her teeth:
"Where did this stupid piece of wood come from?"
