After listening to Vivian's story, Dick couldn't think of a solution for a while.
After all, before the age of 19, he mostly acted as a killer. Compared to the first half year after arriving in this world, he had not seriously killed many monsters before.
So in his opinion, the solution is very simple:
Catch the cursed monster and kill it. In most cases, the curse will be broken naturally.
However, there was a real master demon hunter beside him who had experienced hundreds of battles and experienced thousands of demon hunting commissions. Dick did not speak.
Geralt After a moment of silence, he said the solution in a deep voice.
"Two options. First, you can transfer the curse to an unhatched griffin egg and then break the egg.
But in this way, the curse will be lifted, but Vivian will suffer some backlash and may only have 10 years left to live."
"What?" Jimmy suddenly took a step forward, and the metal guard on the sword hilt collided with the armor, making a crisp sound.
"Impossible! I want Vivian to live forever. Choose the second method."
The blond knight cried out excitedly. When he heard that his partner might only have 10 years to live, he lost control of his emotions instantly.
"Listen to me." Geralt's golden eyes glanced at Jimmy.
"The second method is to transfer the curse to a willing person.
In the process, the curse may be weakened and the two people will bear it together.
Judging from your expression, you must have chosen the second method."
Vivian's eyelashes trembled violently, "The second method, will it cause any harm to Jimmy's body?"
"He may have some mutations just like you.
However, because the curse you received occurred before you were born, the power contained in the curse is not great, so the degree of mutation caused by sharing this curse between two people is acceptable.
And when the power of the curse you bear is reduced again, your body will no longer continue to be alienated."
Jimmy feeling confession:
"Vivian, I am willing to dedicate everything to you.
I am not afraid of physical mutation, let us face all difficulties together.
For the rest of my life, I just want to live with you.
Please, promise me."
Vivian's eyes sparkled, he nodded slightly, and the two embraced each other.
"I said, now is not the time for small talk, we should get going.
Time is running out, if we solve this problem as soon as possible, Vivian will be able to avoid the torture of alienation sooner." Dick joked.
Midnight Moonlight swayed into the lake in the jungle.
According to the instructions of Geralt, Vivian and Jimmy will enter the lake near the cursed jungle together during the full moon and speak the words of sharing the spell under the baptism of Moonlight.
And today happens to be the full moon.
Vivian knows that the situation is urgent and does not want to be shy.
She and Jimmy slowly took off their tops. It could be seen from her trembling butterfly bones that the tawny griffin feathers were growing under the skin.
After a while, maybe as she said, the upper body will completely transform into a griffon.
When the two were about to walk towards the lake, Dick looked solemn and reminded in a deep voice, "Wait a minute."
Geralt wondered, "What happened?"
"Don't you smell the spicy smell of blood?
That smell is in the corner of the cursed grass ahead."
Dick whispered and winked at Geralt.
After all, Geralt's senses are not as sensitive as Dick.
When he concentrated on turning on Witcher Senses, his keen sense told him that there was a figure crouching in the grass not far away, staring closely at Vivian.
Geralt also responded in a low voice:
"How did you tell it was a monster?"
"When Russell penetrated Cockatrice Inn's jaw at the door, I have long remembered the spicy taste.
This monster is Broom Witch, it once provoked us in front of the hotel.
"So that's it."
The two looked at each other and smiled. They didn't say anything to each other, but they both understood in their hearts.
What happens next is obviously much simpler.
Although Jimmy didn't know why, he still put his generous arms around Vivian.
The two of them stood motionless, watching the two demon hunters slowly walk around the lake, muttering words to communicate with the gods and lift the curse.
Just when they were confused, the two of them almost simultaneously drew their long swords from behind and slashed at the tall grass beside them. In an instant, a large group of pitch-black crows arose in the jungle.
Broom Witch rode a broom and soared into the sky, making a vague mocking sound:
"Damn witchers, I hate witchers. Why didn't that cat-eye stab me?"
Dick waved his sword to kill the crow and responded with a smile, "Russell should have stabbed you in the head last time, but I didn't expect you to seek your own death this time."
Broom Witch kept a dozen meters away from the two of them. After feeling safe, he laughed condescendingly and said:
"That girl is a precious living curse container! She has been the experimental target that I have been paying attention to for eighteen years. When she completely transforms into a griffon, she can also be my mount.
But you two spoiled my mood again, and today is the day you die."
When she waved a sharp claw, a large piece of mist swirled around her.
When the mist spread to the nearby jungle, it actually inspired several wild wolves with shining scarlet eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the two demon hunters were surrounded by wolves.
Jimmy held the long sword in his hand and guarded it tightly in front of Vivian.
Vivian's fingers unconsciously rubbed the new feathers on his back, and the sharp feathers caused blood to ooze from his palms.
She stared at her bloody fingertips and trembled:
"Is something going to happen to the two master witchers?
These feathers... obviously weren't long enough to pierce the skin last night."
"No, Vivian. Your nightmare will be over soon.
Just say that at the banquet a few days ago, even if we don't believe in Geralt, we should also believe in Dick.
We have seen that time, Dick defeated the legendary Higher Vampire alone."
Vivian's hands slowly relaxed and dropped.
In the field of vision in front of the two parties, a circle of blue freezing air burst out, and in an instant, it knocked away the surrounding wolves.
The two people clearly saw that the wolves with broken limbs turned into ice crystals before they hit the ground when their blood flowed, and then shattered into pieces after falling to the ground.
Dick Frost Signs, whose left hand has not yet been withdrawn, drew a blue afterimage in the air, and his right wrist shook lightly to shake off the ice crystals on the blade.
When he saw Geralt raising the long sword horizontally to shoulder level, the two of them had a clear understanding, and he understood instantly.
Dick stepped hard on Geralt's sword with both feet.
Geralt gritted his teeth, used all his strength, and slammed the long sword upwards.
His thrust coupled with the powerful bouncing force produced by Dick[Extreme Leap] made Dick fly into the air with a "swish" sound like an arrow.
Dick raised the sword with one hand, the tip of the sword pointed upward, and his whole body was like an inverted meteor, slamming into Broom Witch in the air.
Seeing that she couldn't dodge, the witch quickly sent a group of crows to harass Dick, but it was too late.
In her horrified eyes, the Red Hair demon hunter in front of her was still three feet away from her before he swung his sword.
A large white whirlwind swept over, and the crows screamed and turned into pieces.
In the blink of an eye, the witch felt that her robe was torn, her skin was torn, her bones were ragged, and her consciousness was constantly disappearing.
Dick relied on this momentum that had not disappeared, and flew to Broom Witch who was restrained by [Pendor Great Tornado]. The sword in his hand flashed with light, and the sword blade weaved a silver net in the air.
After he landed firmly in the air, Broom Witch's body "popped" a few times, broke into seven pieces, fell behind him, and fell into smelly minced meat.
