Hogwarts: Harry Returns From The Witcher

Chapter 396 The Baron’s Story

The word "nearly" sounded together with the sound of unscrewing the cork.

Harry frowned: "Nearly a month?"

"Is it more than a month or less than a month?"

The Baron poured himself a glass: "Is this important?"

"This is important." Harry nodded.

This is related to where he can continue to search for Ciri.

According to Dandelion and Zoltan, Ciri stayed in Novigrad for at least a month.

If it takes more than a month, then he will have to find a way to cross the sea with Hermione and go to the Skellige Islands.

"Let me think about it." The baron took a sip of wine, "It hasn't even been a month yet."

Harry nodded.

The Baron continued: "Hey, Witcher, sit down, I will tell you about Ciri."

"No, I know where she went." Harry shook his head.

The Baron put the cup down: "Well, very well, you should tell me, where are Anna and Tamara?"

"Your daughter Tamara, she is in Cowburg now." Harry whispered, "hanging with the people of the Eternal Fire."

The baron relaxed slightly.

The Eternal Fire is not a good thing, but at least they are the most powerful sect. With that group of people, both life and safety can be guaranteed. At least they will not be as worried as they are. Drinking dew from the wind, sleeping in the wild, and facing threats from monsters.

"Where's Anna?" the baron asked.

Harry shook his head: "I can only say that she is safe for now."

"Witcher." The baron's eyes became dangerous and he pressed his hands on the table. "Are you playing with me?"

Harry waved his hand: "I know what you want to do."

"But it's no use, you can't save your wife now."

The baron lowered his elbows: "I am a baron and I have my own army."

"It's enough to scare ordinary people with your name." Harry looked at him and said seriously, "But it's not enough to save your wife."

The Baron poured himself another glass of wine: "What about you, Witcher?"

"You must be able to rescue my wife. No matter what reward you want, I can give it to you, even if it is the rule of Willen."

"You should have heard that witchers stay away from politics." Harry interrupted, "Of course I can, but not now."

"Ciri's matters are more important."

"When Xili's matter is over, I will come back to accept your commission."

The Baron frowned: "Just rescue my wife, maybe just for one or two days."

Harry still shook his head: "We can't delay even a day."

The baron stared at the cup with an unclear expression. The room was gloomy, making him look even more gloomy.

"Extra news, a pass to Novigrad." Harry said.

The baron raised his head: "Go ahead."

"Your wife's miscarriage was not your fault." Harry said softly, "It was her own choice."

The baron was shocked and his eyes were full of disbelief: "Are you serious?"

"Of course." Harry nodded.

He drank all the wine in the glass and shook his head: "You are such a demon hunter. You have to get rewarded from me for this kind of information."

Harry said nothing.

"Are you planning to leave tonight, or stay here for one night?" the baron asked, and began to search on the table again.

Harry turned back and glanced at Hermione: "Let's have a night's rest."

He could still hold on, but Hermione's face was already looking a little bad. Two days and one night without sleep would still be a heavy burden on an ordinary person with little training.

The baron arranged a room for them.

"You know a lot about him?" Hermione frowned when she returned to the house and sat on the bed.

limitations of the times.

Even if Philip is a baron and the emperor of Willen, the environment of his bedroom is far inferior to that of Gryffindor.

Almost instantly, she stood up again, waving her wand, and the transformation spell changed the environment in the room.

Harry nodded: "Geralt told me."

Hermione looked at him quizzically.

From what the baron said just now, it didn’t sound like he had seen Geralt before.

"Ciri, she has ancient blood and can travel through space and time at will." Harry explained briefly, and took out his wand and cast spells with Hermione. "Many people remember that she can travel through various worlds, always Ignore her ability to travel through time.”

"Now she's messing up the timeline."

"These are things Geralt has been through, he told me."

Hermione nodded thoughtfully: "You seem to have a good impression of the Baron?"

Harry conjured a chair and sat down: "Geralt said that he is a pretty good person."

"Ciri gets very good treatment from him."

"Moreover, he is a good ruler, at least he is not a very cruel person."

Hermione frowned: "He is the Bloody Baron."

"You can't rule this land without iron and blood methods." Harry shook his head.

He paused. "In the timeline that Geralt went through, he ended up committing suicide."

"If possible, I also hope that the person who took in Shiri can survive."

"Suicide?" Hermione was surprised, "He doesn't look like it."

Harry's tone was a little sad: "Geralt finally helped him find his daughter and his wife."

"But his wife was cursed and eventually died, and his daughter did not want to continue to be with him and stayed away from him. On that day, the family was truly destroyed."

Hermione was silent for a while and said, "It doesn't sound like he is a good father."

"Of course he is not." Harry shook his head. "Alcoholism and domestic violence are almost the opposite of being a father."

Hermione's eyebrows furrowed further.

"His wife is not a good wife either." Harry continued, "War is the main theme of this world. The Baron was once an officer and fought bravely on the battlefield to kill the enemy."

"It's all for the sake of the family and, of course, himself."

"But his wife cheated on him."

"It was also at that time that he started to engage in domestic violence."

Hermione opened her mouth in surprise.

This kind of thing had a huge impact on her who was still very young and had not yet left Hogwarts.

How could such a thing happen?

"The Baron is not a good person, but at least it shows that he has taken in Ciri." Harry shook his head, took out the scented candle from the Sorting Hat, and lit it, "I think I can help the Baron deal with this little guy." trouble."

"Okay, go to sleep, you haven't slept for a long time."

"I hope Ciri will still be there when I go to Novigrad."

The aromatherapy was prepared by Professor Sprout himself.

The sleep aid effect is very good.

Hermione's thoughts were in disarray, but she fell asleep within ten minutes.

Harry made a summary and lay down on the bed to regain his energy.

Until the next day.

on the table.

The baron looked haggard after a sleepless night, and his fat face was covered with grease from staying up late. He was holding a glass of wine: "Witcher, are you really unwilling to help me?"

"Now is not the time," Harry answered him. "Wait until I find Ciri."

"By the way, there's one more thing."

On the Baron's side, I chose the not-so-good solution as the previous timeline.
