"Hey, come and drink some water."
Kasja took out a bowl and poured Water of Brokilon mixed with water in a certain proportion into the bowl. The little gryphon flapped its wings and landed on the little girl's shoulder. It rubbed against the little girl first, then jumped to the ground in three steps and two steps, and began to drink the Water of Brokilon in the bowl.
Kasja squatted aside, supporting his pale face with one hand, and gently smoothing the hair on the little griffon's back with the other hand.
Ever since Brokilon Forest and Lynn were told by Aglaïs that feeding Water of Brokilon to the little griffon could speed up the little guy's growth, strengthen its body and make it closer to people, Lynn followed suit.
Later, after returning to Kaer Morhen Castle, Kasja took the initiative to take on the responsibility of feeding the little furball.
But looking at the little girl's appearance, she doesn't seem to think this is a duty, but rather enjoys it.
Maybe it was because the little griffon was still too small. Lynn didn't notice how much its size had changed from before, but he did notice that the little guy was getting more and more lively and energetic.
Perhaps even if Water of Brokilon can accelerate its growth, it will still take some time.
During this period of time, as long as Kasja does not follow Yennefer for special training, the little girl will come to Lynn.
And Lynn will take Kasja out to play whenever he has time.
The climate in the Blue Mountains is no better than outside. In winter, the days when you can see the sun are getting fewer and fewer, and even during the day, the sky will only become darker and darker.
As this year is coming to an end, the weather will get colder and colder, but Yennefer gave Kasja a set of beautiful warm bracelets.
In addition to being beautiful, this bracelet's greatest purpose is to make the wearer feel warm all the time.
The relationship between Kasja and the little griffon continues to become closer.
Although griffins are wild beasts, they are also the most intelligent of all wild beasts.
When he first came to Kaer Morhen, he was very scared of the strange place and strange people.
But after staying in the castle for a few days, it immediately understood that the people here were Lynn's companions, comrades, and brothers and would not harm it.
Then it is no longer afraid.
Seeing the two little guys having a great time, Lynn did not bother them.
He stood on the rooftop of the castle, from where he could overlook a large landscape.
After looking at the scenery in the distance for a while, Lynn took out an exquisitely crafted horn from the magic pattern leather bag.
This is the Dragon Horn that Borch gave to himself at the end of his dragon-slaying journey, and allowed him to blow it when needed.
Looking back now, it seems that the dragon-slaying journey happened a long time ago.
Let go of the sadness of spring and autumn, Lynn blows Dragon Horn.
The sound of the horn spread far away, echoing in the mountains.
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew from nowhere. Kasja hugged the little griffin tightly in his arms and squatted on the ground.
The little griffon also looked out tremblingly from Kasja's arms.
The air flow blown by the strong wind condensed into a figure in front of Lynn - Borch.
"Ah, my dear friend."
"Your Excellency Borch, or should I call you the noble Golden Dragon, Your Excellency Villentretenmerth?"
Borch showed a charming smile.
"There are very few people who can pronounce my name accurately. They are indeed my best friends. But why did it take you so long to remember to contact me?"
"Aren't you busy all the time?" Lynn said with a smile, "Besides, this horn is quite precious. If it is just a one-time consumable, wouldn't it be a waste of money if you waste it on chatting?"
Borch smiled.
"Hahaha, blame me, blame me. In fact, this horn is like the one used by warlocks... what is the magic prop called? Yes, the sound transmission box, the principle is the same as that one."
"So don't worry. If you want to use it, you can use it anytime."
Lynn nodded and said, "Well, I will definitely do it next time."
"Speaking of which, is a witcher's job very busy? That's right." Borch didn't know what he understood, he blinked.
"How about it, do you want to come to Zerrikania? As long as I say a word, I can get you a position at Queen's Iron Guard. How about it? Do you want to consider it? This is a job that many people can't get into even if they squeeze their heads."
Queen's Iron Guard is the elite guard dedicated to protecting the Zerrikania royal family. They are composed of a total of eighteen bravest and most skilled warriors, so they are also called "Eighteen Riders of Zerrikania".
In Zerrikania, becoming Queen's Iron Guard is the only opportunity for commoners to be promoted to the nobility, and every Queen's Iron Guard member has a status similar to Earl by default (but without a fief).
If you can really become a Queen's Iron Guard, it will definitely be like a dream for a wandering and impoverished demon hunter.
But Lynn still chose to refuse.
"Forget it, working for the Zerrikania royal family is too easy for people to hate you."
You must know that the founder of School of the Manticore, Imad Asma, ran away with the founder of School of the Viper, Ivar Evil Eye, and the founder of School of the Bear, Arnaghad, and left Order of Witchers.
But on the way, because Ivar did not agree with Arnaghad's concept of being too cold, so when Arnaghad and Ivar Evil Eye had a disagreement, he did not hesitate to follow Ivar Evil Eye and left School of the Bear's base camp Haern Caduch.
But Ivar doesn't agree with Iva Evil Eye's desire to defeat Wild Hunt.
He felt that such a goal was too ethereal.
Finally, Ivar Asma took his followers and migrated alone to Askad Pass where Tir Tochair Mountains and Korath Desert passed over, where they found a way out.
That is to provide protection for passing caravans.
Korath Desert is called Frying Pan by people living on the edge of the desert. This is a wild and hostile land. Even for Zerrikania people, this desert is too dangerous.
But School of the Manticore can profit from it.
The subsequent development seemed to confirm Ivar Asma's conjecture.
School of the Manticore later accidentally rescued a sorceress, who happened to be the court sorcerer of Zerrikania.
After Ivar and his brothers escorted the sorceress to the royal capital, the queen who ruled Zerrikania at that time showed great interest in them.
The Queen did not have any prejudice or discrimination against the witchers, but instead invited them to serve the royal family.
So since then, School of the Manticore has exclusively provided protection for the royal family, and Ivar himself has even become the queen's personal demon hunter.
School of the Manticore's status has also grown steadily.
Everything looks so beautiful.
Until the coming of 1146.
