"Is the corpse I brought back useful?"
Lan stood aside and asked Geralt.
The experienced demon hunter rubbed his chin while looking at the corpse and thinking.
"Your investigation is much more useful than mine. If he is indeed the murderer who raped and killed the lover, then this corpse can probably eliminate the resentment about death in the curse."< /p>
“It is not uncommon for people to complain, and then be twisted into wishes or curses by unknown creatures, or simply strong Chaos magic. There are many sets of applicable rules in the knowledge of witchers. There are ways to break the curse, but the complicated and whirlpool of emotions that the complainer turns into a demon after death is something that is difficult to deal with."
As he spoke, Geralt sighed.
"So, the last thing I want to do is take on the task of lifting the curse. It's too troublesome."
"At least" Lan En's tone was very relaxed. "At least we know the lover's feelings for Fresnet. She didn't have strong enough malice when the curse took shape."
Anyway, he is just a helper, and the most important thing in this mission is Of course, Geralt has to take care of the headache.
After the two cleaned up, they walked directly towards the beach where Fresnet stayed and ate.
On the tidal flat, the two demon hunters happened to meet Miss Elisa who came to feed her brother, and the shirt-sleeved cormorant who raised his head on the table and swallowed a whole live fish.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen."
Eliza wiped her hands on the apron around her waist and greeted the two of them, showing her good cultivation.
Although Geralt felt that if he was the only one here, he would probably not be treated like this.
After Lan En and Geralt also said hello to the noble lady, they looked slightly seriously at the shirt-sleeved cormorant that had finished its meal.
"We are almost ready, we can start to unravel the curse."
After hearing this, the cormorants spread their wings wide, jumped up and quacked, and looked very excited.
But Geralt’s next words immediately silenced him.
"You must have love in your heart." The old demon hunter instructed the cursed person very seriously. "You must have sincere love for your lover."
The cormorant in the nettle shirt froze immediately.
Let a person who has transformed from a human into a bird and can’t even control his own poop, who has lived like this for two years, to sincerely love and curse his own people. This will make it difficult for anyone to listen.
Before the cormorants started barking out of temper, Lan En stepped forward and told the former baron about his investigation.
The lover's curse was not intentional, just a complaint. If he hadn't been raped and killed later, maybe in addition to his biological sister, there would be a guilty woman taking care of Cormorant here now.
After Lan En finished speaking, Cormorant looked stunned.He was stunned and didn't respond, just staring at Poppai's body wrapped in canvas on his horse.
Fresnet's initial resentment was against his lover, whom he thought was just a bad woman who was greedy and cursed.
But resentment turns to guilt when he learns that the so-called bad woman was raped and killed instead of running away just because she complained before accepting his proposal.
A bird's facial muscles do not support the display of complex emotions.
"If you want to get angry, it's better to do it now." Geralt could imagine how Freixenet was feeling now. He probably wanted to tear up the corpse.
"This corpse will sink into the lake during the process of lifting the curse. When you turn back into a human, you won't be able to find him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the one wearing The cormorant in the shirt jumped on Popeye's horse like crazy and began to scream randomly while using its claws and beak to tear the corpse under the canvas.
Eliza turned her head and remained silent.
Lane held Poppy's reins to prevent him from being frightened.
Cormorant's body has little physical strength at all. Under the violent exercise, Fresnet soon had to stop.
At this time, Geralt removed Mutt's body and placed it near the lake.
Then he took out a women's sapphire brooch from his pocket and hung it on the chest of Freixnet's nettle shirt.
This is an emotional object he obtained after investigating in this direction.
Fresnet was also brought to a location adjacent to the lake by Geralt. The witcher stepped across the muddy beach and knelt down on an exposed stone.
"Stand on the corpse and start imagining."
The witcher's tone in a meditative state becomes melodious and psychedelic.
The cormorants naturally began to follow suit.
“Start to imagine that what you see in the reflection of the lake is your own figure as a human being. The brooch is your love, and the corpse is your hate. The power of the curse will adapt to love and hate. "The flow of chaos"
Eliza and Lan were standing a little further away. Ordinary people could not feel the flow of chaotic magic in the space, but the witcher's silver necklace had already begun to rattle. .
At the sapphire brooch on the cormorant's chest, light particles like particle effects began to gather, and then suddenly exploded with a "bang"
The brooch seemed to be given by some force. It exploded as if it was full, and a shock wave that was not consistent with its size was erupted.
However, the cormorant, which was obviously in the same direction as the corpse under its feet, was pushed to the beach by the shock wave, and the corpse tumbled towards the lake in violation of the principles of mechanics.
The light cormorant suddenly exploded its feathers in mid-air and turned into a naked and strong man.
The originally bulging corpse canvas bag seemed to have its contents suddenly shrinking, becoming very deflated and heavy, and then sank into the lake.
Lan En could see clearly from the side that the corpse was not just a matter of sinking into the lake in Geralt's mouth.
It was transformed into a cormorant instead of Fresnet, and then was dragged to the bottom of the lake by the restraint of chaotic magic.
Miss Eliza excitedly rushed towards Baron Harm who was covered in mud, while Lann walked to Geralt who stood up.
He just wanted to praise the old demon hunter for his professional skills, but then the old demon hunter whistled proudly.
"It really worked"
Lan's smile froze at that time
Next to him, Fresnet trembled from the beach. Standing up, it seemed that he had to get used to his human body again after two years.
A brother and sister hugged each other and cried with joy regardless of the filth on their bodies. Geralt and Lan turned around and left with a wink.
"Now, you can go to King Aiweier to receive the reward. How much can you earn by lifting a baron's curse?"
"Fifty enough without trimming Crown, equivalent to five hundred orens."
"It sounds good. Although it is not comparable to the three thousand orens you paid for Princess Yada a few years ago, it is still valuable."< /p>
Geralt listened to Lan En’s words and supplemented him.
"Don't think that an ordinary baron can get the king to pay this price. King Awell wants to marry that Miss Eliza, so he is willing to pay this price."
"Marry Elisa. "Lisa" Lan En raised his eyebrows, "How old is King Aiweier?"
"That guy is over fifty. When I went to see him, he even urinated on his pants." If Sha was married, she would be able to become a widowed queen after a few years of patience, and the future would be easy."
"Sounds good, she looks pretty and not sharp, so she is suitable for being a careless widowed queen. And based on the two years she has taken care of her brother, I guess she can be included in fairy tales and be remembered forever."
Geralt nodded in agreement.
"Stories are already circulating. They say that Fresnet turned into a swan, and five brothers also turned into swans."
Lan En twisted in surprise. Look at him.
"It has changed so fast. The last time I heard about it, it was only about swans. Now I have brothers."
"There are rumors and fairy tales. I really don't know how to become a swan." Why does it seem more romantic?"
