The imperialrestaurant, magic lampthrows down the dream the sketch, a man and a womantwopeoplesit facing each otherintableboth sides.
皇家餐厅,魔法灯投下梦幻的剪影,一男一女两个人在餐桌两端相对而坐。„Do youplanto leaveVizima?” The Addahalffaceburies the shadow, the slenderfingertwistsin the same place.
“你们打算离开维吉玛?”雅妲半张脸埋入阴影,纤细的手指绞在一起。Witchertoward the mouthstopperstewsoftrottenmutton, in the eyesomeapologies, „and other equipment of Schoolforgedonset off, probably a week.”猎魔人往嘴里塞了一块炖煮软烂的羊肉,眼中有些歉意,“等学派的装备锻造完毕就出发,大概还有一个周。”„God of MisfortunePriestthat side...”
“恶兆之神的祭司那边…”Hisapologeticsay/way, „the matteraboutAbigail, Iwantsto continueto tracebut actually, but‚Teacher’opinionis very big. AsViper Schoolone, Imustrespecttheiropinions, thereforewas sorryvery much..., butIfelt,Abigailhas leftVizima.”
他歉然道,“关于阿比盖尔的事,我倒想继续追查下去,但‘老师们’意见很大。作为蛇派的一员,我必须尊重他们的意见,所以很抱歉…但我觉得,阿比盖尔已经离开维吉玛。”Addais silent.雅妲默然。„The transformation of sewersanctumhow?”
“下水道圣所的改造如何?”„In one month...”MentionedChurch of Virtue, onAddabeautiful facewere manyseveralpoints of appearance, the tonebecamejumps for joy, „20most reverentbeliever of Vizimaurban district, will move into the completely newprayroom, preaching in suburbvillage will also conduct.”
“再过一个月吧…”提到美德教会,雅妲俏脸上多了几分神采,语气变得雀跃,“维吉玛市区的二十位最为虔诚信徒,将入驻全新的祈祷室,郊外村庄里的布道也会同时进行。”„Goddesswill reappear the brillianceinVizimasooner or later!”
“女神迟早会在维吉玛重现光辉!”„Canachievetheseachievements, thanks toyouraids.” The redlip of Addapurseddelicate, charming and tender, the eyeincluding the issuehopetoWitcher, is makingfinalstriving, „reallydid not consider that keepsVizimato helpmewith single-hearted devotion. Iwill try to find the solutiontoyou a dignifiedstatus, makingyoube respectedwithabilitymatch.”
“能取得这些成就,多亏你们的援手。”雅妲抿了抿娇艳欲滴的红唇,眼含期盼望向猎魔人,做着最后的争取,“真的不考虑留在维吉玛专心帮我。我会想办法给你们一个体面的身份,让你们得到与能力匹配的尊重。”„In factcontinuesmyenterpriseto needyou,”Adda emphasized that „Goddesscould not leaveyoursupport.”
“事实上不止我的事业需要你,”雅妲强调道,“女神也离不开你的支持。”Lady of the Lakehas closed up the deep sleepfor a long time, sincepreviousBlack Tern IslandtransformedElf of more than tenwater, andgrantsRoythatdrop of bloodessence, sheseems the vitalityto damage severely.湖中女士已经闭关沉睡了许久,自从上次黑燕鸥岛转化了十多只水之精灵,并赐予罗伊那滴血液精华,她好像元气大伤。Alsois possibly avoidingthreeImperial Advisor and Foltestevil intentions.
也可能是在躲避三位皇家顾问及弗尔泰斯特的恶意。„ButIfirstamWitcher,” the Roytoneis sincere, the lookis firm, „youknow that Witcheris always of no fixed abode, wewill not stayfor a long timein a place.”
“但我首先是个猎魔人,”罗伊语气诚恳,眼神却坚定,“你知道的,猎魔人向来都是居无定所,我们不会在一个地方长久地待下去。”Then, two peoplefell intosilent, long timeis speechless, in the restaurantonly has a knife and fork and trayclearcollisionsound.
说完,两人陷入了沉默,良久无言,餐厅中只有一阵刀叉和盘子清脆的碰撞声。„Good..., sinceyourintentionhas decided that Ido not demand,”someAddainterest is wanings, hitSpirit, „, butIam very curious, whereleavingVizimayournextstandis?”
“好吧…既然你心意已决,那我不也强求,”雅妲有些意兴阑珊,强打精神,“但我很好奇,离开维吉玛你们下一站是哪里?”„City of FreedomNovigrad.”Royhas not concealedslightly, „thereis occupied byto me very importantperson, in addition, I have an agreementinNovigrad, will be related to the Viper Schoolfuturedevelopment, mustgo.”
“自由之城诺维格瑞。”罗伊丝毫没有隐瞒,“那里住着对我而言很重要的人,此外,我在诺维格瑞还有个约定,事关蛇派未来的发展,必须去一趟。”„RedaniaandNovigrad of Temeriaborder?” The Addaremindersaid,„youare careful, thatplacebiggestinfluenceEternal FireChurch, is not quite friendlytoNon-Humans.”
“瑞达尼亚和泰莫利亚边境的诺维格瑞?”雅妲提醒道,“你们要小心,那个地方最大的势力永恒之火教会,对非人种族不太友善。”„It is not extremetoWitcher,” the Royfinger/refers of this timepoint, „weare notannoytroublesome.”
“对猎魔人还没那么极端吧,”罗伊指的这个时间点,“我们又不是去惹麻烦。”Addahesitated the moment, sweptWitcherone, hesitantsay/way,雅妲沉吟了片刻,又扫了猎魔人一眼,犹豫道,„Goes toNovigradfromVizima, is Barony of La Valette a road which must be taken?”
“从维吉玛去诺维格瑞,拉·瓦雷第男爵领是必经之路?”„According toourplans, right. Why did youask?”
“根据我们的计划,没错。您为什么这么问?”„Mya littlematterwantsto askyou.”Addastarts to speak but hesitates, „considers as finished... actuallynoat the worst, Ithink ofsomefamilyscandals.”
“我有点事想拜托你们。”雅妲欲言又止,“算了…其实没什么大不了的,我只是想到一些家族丑闻。”Witcherhas not closely examinedfollowingherwords, heremembersindistinctly,historicallybaronessLa ValetteLouisawasFoltestgave birth to the one daughter and one son twoillegitimate childrenone after another, Temeria had Princessdetected?猎魔人没有顺着她的话追问,他隐约记得,历史上拉·瓦雷第男爵夫人露意莎先后为弗尔泰斯特相继生下了一女一儿两个私生子,难道泰莫利亚的公主已经有所察觉?Buthehas not plannedto meddle the imperialinternal affairs, remained silent.
但他从来没有打算插手皇家内务,保持了缄默。Addasighed, no longermentionedthismatter, „, will youalso return toVizima?”雅妲叹了口气,不再提这事,“以后你们还会回到维吉玛?”„Naturally, weare the firmestallies!”Witchersmiles, „do not forgetundergroundalsoto have the Elfvestigewaitingexploration.”
“当然,咱们是最坚定的盟友!”猎魔人笑了笑,“别忘了地下还有个精灵遗迹等待探索。”If nothing unexpected happens, here-entersVizima is also the firstNorthern Realmswarlatermatter.
如无意外,他重回维吉马也是第一次北境战争之后的事。„, Iwishedyourbon voyageahead of time, RoyKnight. Hopessaid goodbyeday, youhad achieved wishesto reconstructViper School.”
“那么,我就提前祝你们一路顺风,罗伊骑士。希望再见之日,你们已经如愿重建蝮蛇学院。”„Receivesyourauspicious words, Your highness. Ialsowishyousoonto realize the ownaspirationinVizima.”
“承您吉言,殿下。我也祝您在维吉马早日实现自己的抱负。”Two peoplesmile, by the longsquare table, respectedonecuptoward the opposite partydistantly,
两人相视一笑,在长方桌两边,遥遥朝对方敬了一杯,„Alsomustinformyourmatter, Foltestto rejectyourpreviousrequestclearly.”Adda said that „, buthewill compensate your sum of money, twothousandOren.”
“还要通知你件事,弗尔泰斯特已经明确拒绝你上次的请求。”雅妲说,“但他会补偿你们一笔钱,两千奥伦。”„Iexpectedearly.”Witcherregrettedslightly, butthisis the reality, the realityis impossiblealwaysto defer toindividualWilldevelopment.
“我早料到了。”猎魔人微微遗憾,但这就是现实,现实不可能总是按照个人的意志发展。„Foltestwas too old, was overcautious and indecisiveto lose the boldness.”Addasaid,„changes intoisI, certainlywill scrub the infamyforyou, is not the things of severalbulletins.”
“弗尔泰斯特年纪太大了,瞻前顾后失去了魄力。”雅妲说,“换成是我,一定会替你们洗刷污名,不就是几张告示的事情。”Royshakes the head, whereis so simple, buthesawin the Addalong and narrowpupil the ambition of flamingcombustion. „That, Ianticipateto have such a day,”罗伊摇摇头,哪有那么简单,但他看到了雅妲狭长的眸子里熊熊燃烧的野心。“那么,我期待有那么一天,”Perhapsin the near future, Vizimawill present the firstfemalesuccessor.
也许在不久的将来,维吉玛将出现第一任女性继承者。

……Inleaving the corridor before FoltestFort, Roybumped intoonegroup of acquaintances.
在离开弗尔泰斯特城堡前的走廊里,罗伊又碰到了一伙儿熟人。Severalsoldier, as well asare pokingZeForest and walking stick, lay downin the stretcher the facial expressionongoodmanyMarrsKnight, threeWhite RoseKnightwith the Imperial AdvisorTriss·Merigoldconversation.
几名士兵,以及杵着拐杖的泽林、亚贡,躺在担架里气色好上了许多马尔斯骑士,三位白蔷薇的骑士正在与皇家顾问特莉丝·梅里葛德交谈。„Good afternoon, Master Roy, is so skillfulyoualsoin!”Threepeoplesawhimthento warmly welcome, crowded aroundsideWitcher, Sorceressfollowed on the heels. „Previoustimewecanlivethanks toyour, has wantedto express gratitudewithyou.”
“下午好,罗伊大师,这么巧您也在!”三人瞅见他便热情地迎了过来,簇拥在猎魔人身边,女术士跟在后面。“上次我们能活下来都是托您的福,一直想跟您道谢来着。”„Threespoke discreetly, youalsoto help, the expression of gratitudedoes not need.”Royhappilysaid.
“三位言重了、你们也帮了我很大的忙,道谢就不必了。”罗伊欣慰地说。Althoughthreepeople of actualagesare olderthanhimonmany, but the beforehandactionhas receivedhimto look.
尽管三人实际年纪比他大上不少,但之前的行动一直受他照顾。„Woundgoodhow? Is painful.”
“身上的伤好的怎么样?还痛不痛。”ZeForestrousedon the drummerarm the developedmusculus biceps brachii, „Iabsolutelydo not have the issue, butSirTrisssaid that must recuperate for at leastthreemonths.”
泽林鼓了鼓手臂上发达的肱二头肌,“我完全没问题,但特莉丝大人说还得休养至少三个月。”„Woundtobone, threemonthslight,”Sorceresswalkedsmilingly, sheseems like the mood is quite good, a redlateritualskirt of lacelace, showshappystature, „thesetwogood, MarrsKnightdefinitelycannot leave the stretcherthis year.”
“伤到骨头,三个月算轻的,”女术士笑盈盈地走了过来,她看上去心情相当不错,一身蕾丝花边的红色晚礼裙,彰显出美好的身材,“这两位还好,马尔斯骑士今年肯定离不开担架。”„Canliveveryluckilyalready...”Marrssatfrom the stretcherundersupporting by the arm of twocompanions. „Master Roy...”
“能活下已经很侥幸…”马尔斯在两位同伴的搀扶下从担架里坐了起来。“罗伊大师…”„Do not move... the little darlingto sit, thankswordsIdeclined with thanks. Next timewill pay attentionto take care on the line. After alltimeis not every somepeoplesavedyou.”
“你别动…乖乖坐好,感谢的话我心领了。下次注意照顾好自己就行。毕竟不是每一次都有人救你们。”„That... Grandmaster...”Nearbysaidsuddenlyhesitant,„is actually I have an idea to seek informationyouragreement.”
“那个…大师…”旁边的亚贡突然犹犹豫豫地说,“其实是我有个想法想征询您的同意。”„, Mentionedlistens,”Witcherfaint smileplace, „Ican the extenuatoryreceive fees.”
“哦,说来听听,”猎魔人似笑非笑地,“我会酌情收取费用。”Was choked, flexurescratched the head, „Ionlywant your authorization.”
亚贡被噎了一下,挠了挠头,“我只想要您一个授权。”„Youdo not knowprobably when besides the Knight of White Rosestatus, Ialsohold concurrent jobs the Vizimaopera housescreenwriter, the leisurelikesfiddling withsomeinnovativeplays. Butyoudisplayedother daybravelystimulatedmyinspirationenormously. Whilebeing injuredthis period of time, Iwrote a brand-newoperayouandGhoul, Drowner, Fleder the experience of fight.”
“您大概不知道,除了白蔷薇骑士的身份外,我还兼职着维吉玛歌剧院编剧,闲暇之余就喜欢捣鼓一些创新性的剧目。而您上回勇敢的表现极大地激发了我的灵感。趁着受伤这段时间,我把您与食尸鬼、水鬼、蝠翼魔的搏斗的经历写成了一幕全新的歌剧。”„What?”Roystaredin a big way the eye, shakes the headunbelievable, Sorceresscovered the redlipto be able help smiling, shehad not heard that whichfoolhad the lead who Witchermolded the opera, thatabsolutelydid not have the market.
“啥?”罗伊瞪大了眼睛,难以置信地摇了摇头,女术士捂着红唇忍俊不禁,她没听说有哪个傻子把猎魔人塑造成歌剧的主角,那完全没有市场。„Right!”Clenches teeth, „Iam based onyourlegendto experience, wrote down an opera. So long asyouagreed that Iwill submit a piece of writingto the theater, thenarrangessome time, the waitingplaysbeginsofficially.”
“没错!”亚贡咬了咬牙,“我以您的传奇经历为基础,写下了一幕歌剧。只要您同意我就会向剧院投稿,然后筹备一段时间,等待剧目正式开演。”„Names the character?”
“叫啥名字?”„The end matter——Butcher of Sewerslegend of contamination!”
“污秽的终结者——下水道屠夫传说!”Sorceress„giggle”smilesto make noisefinallytenderly.女术士终于“咯咯”娇笑出了声。„Butcher of Sewers, whoto the nickname that Ido take?” A Roycomplexionboard, dark goldpupilprojects the color of danger, „Knight, youraesthetic appreciationwith the Drownerstudy, thisnicknamesimplyis coarser than RoosterKiller!”
“下水道屠夫,谁给我取的外号?”罗伊脸色一板,暗金的瞳孔射出危险之色,“亚贡骑士,你的审美是跟水鬼学的,这外号简直比公鸡杀手还难听!”„Grandmaster, whatliterary referenceRooster is Killer?”Whole faceintellectual curiosity.
“大师,公鸡杀手又是什么典故?”亚贡满脸求知欲。„Bah! Ispoke thoughtlessly a saying, drew an analogy.”Royexplainedone, but the effectis not quite good, the playwrightdemonstartledtalked overin a low voice, „RoosterKiller... Butcher of Sewers...”,
“呸、呸!我就随口一说,打个比方。”罗伊解释了一句,但效果不太好,剧作家亚贡魔怔似地低声念叨,“公鸡杀手…下水道屠夫…”,As to unearth more „legendaryexperience”.
似乎想从中挖掘出更多“传奇经历”。„Iwarnedyou! Do not indulge in flights of fancy, pulledanyrelationswithmeRoosterKiller, Butcher of SewersIalsorecognizes.”
“我警告你!别胡思乱想,把公鸡杀手跟我扯上任何关系,下水道屠夫我也就认了。”„Did youagree?” A faceis joyful.
“您同意了?”亚贡一脸欣喜。„In the opera that youwrite does noplaceslanderWitcher?”Royaskeddiscretely.
“你写的歌剧里没有什么地方污蔑猎魔人?”罗伊谨慎地发问。„Howpossibly!”Is patting the chest, became flushed the face, „youareoursaviors, the insultsavior, returning evil for good, thatinsults the White Roseglory, whatqualificationsI have to go on living!?”
“怎么可能!”亚贡拍着胸膛,涨红了脸,“您是我们的救命恩人,侮辱救命恩人,恩将仇报,那就是侮辱白蔷薇的荣耀,我还有什么资格活下去!?”„Excited... Ihave not suspectedyou.”Royis stroking gently the chin, carvesto tread around the millstone, „said,in the playcurtainis singing the praisestome?”
“别激动…我没有怀疑你。”罗伊摩挲着下巴,琢磨道,“这么说,剧幕里都在给我歌功颂德?”„Allis not...”Emphasized, „whatIwrotewas the deviationon-the-spot reporttypeopera, whatstressedwas the cruelty and bad risk of Monster, skillandcourage and wisdom that as well asyouwere a cut above others.”
“不全是…”亚贡强调道,“我写的是偏向纪实类型的歌剧,着重强调的是怪物的残忍和凶险,以及您高人一等的身手和胆识。”„Good...”Witchersubmitted, the Foltestrejectionrectifies namesforWitcher, will the approach of thatthisconcurrent jobscreenwriterhave the littleeffect? Hethinks that cantry.
“好吧…”猎魔人屈服了,弗尔泰斯特拒绝替猎魔人正名,那这位兼职编剧的做法会有一点点效果吗?他认为可以一试。„Youknow that mydwelling, in the two days, makingyourbrothersdeliver the script, Imustglancepersonally.”
“你知道我的住处,就在这两天,让你的兄弟把剧本送过来,我要亲自过目。”„Without the issue, will delivertomorrow, but alsoa littlelicensing fee, twotenOren, inadequaterespect! When the playsbegan broadcasting, you must cometo accept this inviteto collect a popularity.”
“没问题,明天就送,还有一点授权费,二十奥伦,不成敬意!等剧目开播了,您也要过来赏脸凑个人气。”„Verysorry, at that timeIhave leftVizima. As for the licensing fee, exempted.”
“很抱歉,那时候我已经离开维吉玛。至于授权费,免了吧。”„Do youwantto leaveVizima?”NearbyTrisshearswordstaredin a big way the pupil, the expressionwas astonished, somewhatwas slightly regrettable.
“你要离开维吉玛?”旁边的特莉丝闻言瞪大了眸子,表情讶异,微微有些遗憾。Becausemet for the first time had/left a clown, shedoes not dareto relatethisyounghandsomeWitcheragain.
因为第一次见面就出了个丑,她一直没敢再联系这位年轻英俊的猎魔人。But the idea of herhearthas not changed, Witcherhas the similarspecial characteristicswithSorcerer, for examplesimilarlypitifulchildhood.
但她心底的想法未曾改变,猎魔人跟术士有着相似的特质,比如同样凄惨的童年。Actuallycantake toheronetypewithnumerous not manycuriosities, distinguishesbetweenbeforehave contactedallmasculineandordinarypersonas well asSorcerer.
却又能带给她一种与众不多的新鲜感,区别于以前接触过的所有男性、普通人以及术士。Especiallythinks that herelatessignificantlywiththatoldSorceressCoral, but alsohas sought help a sadfirstgirl.
尤其是想到他跟那位年长的女术士珊瑚关系匪浅,还求助过一位悲催的先女孩儿。Thisnoveltyis even more intense.
这种新奇感越发强烈。YoungSorceresscannot bearwant to further contact, understands some of his information, butit seems likedoes not have the opportunitynow.
年轻的女术士忍不住想进一步接触,多了解一些他的信息,但现在看来没有机会了。Currently speaking, two peoplerelationsmerelyare the nodding acquaintance, shedoes not feel betterinquired.
就目前而言,两人的关系仅仅算是点头之交,她也不好过多询问。„Passes a weekagain, beautifulLady...”WitchersmilestoSorceress, „, butIhave a premonition, wewill also meetsooner or lateragain.”
“再过一个周吧,美丽的女士…”猎魔人冲女术士爽朗一笑,“但我有种预感,我们迟早还会再见面。”„Hope... was so right, Royalsohas a matterto askyou, ifmeetsGeraltorYennefer, gave regardstothemforme...”Trisswinkedsmart-alecky the light bluepupil.
“希望如此…对了,罗伊还有件事拜托你,如果遇到杰洛特或者叶奈法,替我向他们问个好…”特莉丝俏皮地眨了眨浅蓝的眸子。
......
……„Cleverchild, tastes, yourmostloves...”Auckesuses the willow branchto hang the carrotis teasing a brownhorsein the horse stable of garden.
“乖孩子,尝尝,你的最爱…”奥克斯正在庭院的马厩里用柳枝吊着的胡萝卜逗弄一匹棕色的马儿。
The horseis not high, butwinsin the figureis healthy, the hairgloss and both eyesshiny blackare bright, in the saddlebag of bodysideis also hanging a Flederheadspecimen of fiendish features.
马儿并不高,但胜在身形健美、毛发油光、双目黑亮有神,身侧的马鞍袋上还挂着一个青面獠牙的蝠翼魔头颅标本。Facing the fatalseduction, the horsedisplayssuitablydisdains, butreveals a becoming knowntooth, at the same timehits the soundnose, to move the tail, „pūgave a tongue-lashingtoAuckespūcī”spurtedfacesaliva.
面对致命的诱惑,马儿表现得相当不屑,只是露出一口大白牙,一边打着响鼻、甩动尾巴,冲奥克斯“噗呲噗呲”喷了一脸口水。„Ungratefulthing, iswhotowedinitiallyfrom the Amellmountain rangeyou!?”
“忘恩负义的东西,当初是谁把你从阿梅尔山脉拖回来的!?”„Daresto bullymyhorse, who don't youhave a look atitsmasterare?”Royflushedoneto rob the carrotfrom the hoodmalehand, the gatheringbrownhorsemouth.
“敢欺负我的马,你也不看看它的主人是谁?”罗伊冲过来一把从兜帽男手中抢走了胡萝卜,凑到棕马嘴边。Formed the sharpcontrastwith the condition of formerlooking cold and indifferent, the brownhorsestretched outwet the tonguelicked the palm of Royintimately, then the little darlinggnawed the carrotobedient.
与之前的爱答不理的状况形成鲜明的对比,棕马伸出湿乎乎的舌头亲热地舔了舔罗伊的手掌,然后乖乖听话地啃起了胡萝卜。Itssnoringsnoringgnawscheerfully, in the saddlebagdrills a furrylittle fellow, Griffin that meowmeowcalledcrawledon the Wirthneck, caughtitsmane, lookscrazilyownmaster.
它呼噜呼噜啃得欢快,马鞍袋里又钻出一个毛茸茸的小家伙,喵喵叫的歌尔芬爬到了维尔特脖子上,拽住它的鬃毛,痴痴地看着自家主人。Witcherstretched out the fingertowardit, Griffinjumped upimmediatelyhisback of the hand, crawledafter the shoulderhoodsecure the nestagaintohishead.猎魔人朝它伸出了指头,歌尔芬立即跳上他的手背,再顺着肩膀爬到他脑袋后的兜帽里安了窝。„Sorry, Griffin, does not have the small fishto donow, laterbuysforyou.”
“抱歉,歌尔芬,现在没有小鱼干,待会儿给你买。”NearbyAuckeslooked atone, disdain„scoffing”. „Howirresponsiblemaster, might as wellgivemethem.”
旁边奥克斯看了一阵,不屑地“嗤”了一声。“多么不负责任的主人,不如把它们送给我。”
The Roygatheringbrownhorseneckwhisper, ittransfers the horse's headimmediately, aimed atAuckes the buttocks.罗伊凑到棕马脖子边耳语了一句,它立刻调转马头,将屁股对准了奥克斯。Turnedturning.

“差不多…”罗伊抚摸着马脖子看了看铁匠铺的方向,“就等贝连迦尔和雷索。”
