Chapter 78 Rewards for Exchange
When Geralt and Regoul came to the Abel Magic Workshop together, Geralt's eyes were obviously surprised, and he couldn't help but say to Regol beside him: "I feel like this house has been expanded again. It seems that every time I come, magic is convenient!"
Geralt's sigh is not without reason. Originally, Eber's magic workshop was a circular shell-shaped building. This was the image it was when it first unfolded and it was also what Geralt saw when he first came. However, with Eber's upgrade of the magic workshop, the expanded manufacturing factory quickly added a building next to the round shell, which seemed to be wrapped in two leaves.
This time, next to the shell-shaped magic workshop, there was another new building. The flat shape looked a bit like a crab lying on the ground. The transparent crab shell made Geralt wonder what it was for.
Although Regul was also surprised that this building was almost entirely made of metal, he was just surprised. It seemed that he had seen a building made of metal before, and he asked Geralt: "Is this the residence of Mr. Abel? Geralt, you mentioned magic just now. Is this Mr. Abel a wizard?"
"Yes, Mr. Abel is a mage. Don't talk about this matter everywhere. I wanted to keep it secret before, but the continuous incidents have made this matter unconcealable. But it's better not to make a fuss about everyone." Geralt did not find it strange to recognize the identity of Master Abel. In fact, Geralt was willing to bring him to see Abel, so he had already planned to tell Regol about his identity.
"But the mage, is this Mr. Abel an elf? Geralt, you dare to let a sharp ear live so close to your Steel Leaf Tribe!" Regoul looked at Geralt and became strange. The relationship between the human tribe and the elf empire has been incompatible since hundreds of years ago. Although he had not had any contact for hundreds of years, humans have not forgotten this hatred.
Seeing that Regoul misunderstood, Geralt hurriedly explained: "You misunderstood old friend. Mr. Aber is a half-elf. Otherwise, do you think I would really let a sharp ear live so close to the Steel Leaf Tribe? Especially if he is a mage, he can easily destroy the entire Steel Leaf Tribe."
While explaining to Regoul, Geralt also brought him to the door of the Magic Workshop.
"Are you half-elves? That's understandable. But it's really strange that a half-elves can actually use magic. Isn't it said that magic is the gift of the elves gods?" Regoul said to Geralt in a chatty tone.
Although humans and elves are feuds, because of the elves' repulsive attitude of exorcising other races and the way of killing half-elves, humans do not reject half-elves very much. In addition to Abel, half-elves have escaped to human tribes before, so Regoul was not surprised when he heard Geralt say that Abel was a half-elves.
"I don't know this, but when Mr. Aber said that he had a teacher and a mage, who could understand what we ordinary people did?" Geralt smiled self-deprecatingly, and was about to reach out to knock on the door, but the portal still opened so accurately before he knocked on the door.
Geralt's hand that was about to knock on the door almost knocked on Ada's chest, who was walking out of the portal. Geralt quickly put his hand down and pretended to be careless and greeted Ada: "Hello, Miss Ada."
Unlike Belfast, who is a combat maid, the hunter who was originally a war puppet was originally a war machine, and was born for killing. Even though she pretended to be an elf maid, her face was still cold and without any expression: "Master, let me come to welcome the two of you, please come in."
Without nonsense, Ada reached out to the portal and made a gesture of inviting in. However, her cold face and the appearance of the elf still made the face of Regul beside her full of unconcealed surprise. She couldn't help but exclaim: "Elf!" Suddenly, the muscles in her body tensed. He really didn't expect to see an elf here.
Geralt hurriedly explained: "Don't be nervous. Miss Ada is also Mr. Abel's maid. She is like Miss Belfast you saw before, both are puppets and are not real elfs. Don't worry, believe my old friend."
Ada did not express any special expression about Regul's reaction and Geralt's words. She still maintained the posture of inviting in. She stood by the portal, but her empty eyes made Regul feel a little chilling on her back, as if she was being targeted by some dangerous beast. She couldn't help but raise her evaluation of Mr. Abel, who had not met.
Geralt was not surprised by this. He had seen Ada last time and didn't care about it. He nodded to her friendly and then stepped into the portal.
When Regul saw Geralt walking in, he calmed down and followed without hesitation. Although he felt very nervous when he stepped over the portal, he didn't feel anything after he stepped over. He couldn't help but look back at the portal, but only saw the portal that was closing and Ada who was stepping over from the door.
Although Regul is not usually a fussy personality, he suddenly stepped into the residence of a mage. When he saw everything he had never seen or heard of, he was curious, nervous and prepared, and was not incomprehensible.
Following Ada, Geralt and Regul sat down on the sofa in the hall, while Ada turned around and went to the library to inform Abel.
Without allowing Geralt and Regour to wait, Abel soon appeared in front of the two.
"Captain Geralt, why do you have time to come to me today?" Abbot greeted Geralt, and also looked at Regul who was sitting beside him: "What is this gentleman? You haven't had breakfast yet? Ada, prepare some snacks for me and make another pot of black tea."
"Yes, master." Ada took the order and left, but Regul's eyes were still paying attention to her. He did not come to his senses until Geralt, who was next to him, introduced him to Abel.
"This is Regoul from the Frost Wolf Tribe, and I am my good friend. We are here this time to ask Mr. Abel for questions about sacrificing gods. The gods of the Frost Wolf clan have encountered the same situation as our Steel Leaf Tribe." Geralt said to Abel.
