Seeing Kayla take the boy's arm and walk towards her very intimately, Triss's expression suddenly became very surprised.

As a good friend and senior, she knew very well how proud Kayla, the junior, was, and that few men could catch her eye.

As for sorceresses who are at the pinnacle of strength, wealth, and power among women, they choose men more because of their own preferences and pay more attention to the quality of men rather than their status, wealth, or other external things.

But soon, Triss discovered something unusual. The handsome boy not only had a very strong physique and tall stature, but also a confident and aggressive temperament. The most prominent feature was his pointed ears and amber vertical pupils.

As a knowledgeable sorceress, Triss quickly guessed the boy's true identity. She didn't expect that he was a demon hunter, which was quite rare nowadays, and a half-elf.

She opened her mouth in surprise. You know, witchers have a very bad reputation. Although they, the sorceresses, know more of the truth than those ignorant civilians and nobles, even so, few warlocks are willing to deal with witchers.

But soon, Triss felt a little rude and covered her face with her hands and laughed softly, saying:

"I never expected, Kayla, that I would actually see a demon hunter in your house. This is the first time I have seen this legendary profession."

"But I heard some rumors recently that a very powerful demon hunter master came to Vizima City and solved the problem of monster infestation in the city."

"Is this the handsome elf gentleman?"

Wayne turned his head and looked at Kayla. Seeing that she didn't introduce herself, he smiled and nodded at Triss and said, "Ms. Triss, I am a half-elf, and the one you are talking about should be one of my companions. I don't accept many commissions in the city, and I am busy with my own affairs most of the time."

When they first met, they exchanged a few simple pleasantries and then sat back down at the table in the living room with Kayla.

Afterwards, Wayne pretended to be a mature and steady man. He just drank tea, admired the beauty of the two female sorcerers, and listened to their conversation quietly. He would not say anything unless asked questions.

At first, Keira and Triss talked about their work as royal advisors, but later they talked about the gossip and secrets of the nobles, as well as some discussions about magical techniques.

Although he couldn't understand some of the discussions on magical techniques, the gossip about the kingdom's nobles and the work handled by the royal advisers were quite interesting, and Wayne listened attentively.

It was not until more than an hour later, when it was completely dark outside, that Kayla turned to Wayne and said coquettishly:

"Wayne, as a gentleman, could you please prepare a dinner for the three of us?"

"The last time I went to your house for a dinner, I thought about the food you cooked for a long time and I liked it very much."

Upon hearing this, Triss covered her mouth and chuckled. She looked at Wayne with curiosity and asked Kayla:

"I have never heard you praise the cooking skills of the royal chef. Is the food cooked by Mr. Wayne more delicious than that of the royal chef?"

Keira smiled mysteriously, winked at Triss, and said as if to show off:

"Wayne has many advantages, and cooking is just a relatively insignificant one among them."

"Triss, once you taste the food he cooks, you will know the difference between a genius and an ordinary person."

"oh!"

Triss sighed with a dragging tone, then leaned over and whispered something to Keira. They both laughed happily. It was obvious that as both were sorceresses, they had a very good relationship.

Of course Wayne did not refuse such a trivial request. He and Macy went to Kayla's kitchen and with the help of the maid, prepared several delicious dishes, mainly desserts and soups that ladies liked, which were dishes that had not yet appeared in this era.

Especially the little maid Macy, who was responsible for all the food in the mansion, and Wayne's cooking skills successfully conquered the girl's appetite, making her look at Wayne with admiration.

Even the two female sorcerers who paid great attention to their body shape relaxed their restrictions and enjoyed a delicious meal.

After eating and drinking, Kayla formally talked about the purpose of inviting Wayne.

A commission, a commission from Vizima City Hall.

Keira took out a letter of authorization signed by the city hall, handed it to Wayne, and explained: "The thing is, Wayne, as you know, the construction of the new city of Vizima consumes a lot of building materials every day."

"And the stones we use are all transported from Baron Kolber's quarry more than ten kilometers away."

"But two days ago, when the miners were digging, they damaged something and a group of monsters suddenly appeared in the quarry."

"This has severely affected the architecture of New Vizima."

"Mayor Vidrad immediately sent a team of twenty soldiers to destroy the monster."

"Unfortunately, only a small number of these soldiers escaped back. Based on their descriptions, I analyzed and believed that a group of demons should have appeared there."

"As a demon hunter, you should know that ordinary soldiers cannot deal with such invisible demons."

"But this quarry is very important. It is the largest quarry near Vizima and has the best transportation conditions. The construction of the new city cannot be without it, so it must be solved as soon as possible."

"That's why this commission fell into my hands, and I also need a helper, an expert in dealing with monsters."

After hearing Kayla's story, Wayne nodded. This was an ordinary commission, perhaps just due to the urgency of the time.

"Do you want to hire me for this commission, Kayla?"

Keira smiled and nodded, snorted, and said rather arrogantly, "I don't trust those stupid soldiers, nor do I trust those flashy knights."

"But if it were you, Wayne, you would definitely protect me, right?"

Ding! The commission is triggered.

[The Demon in the Quarry], Expert level.

Do you want to accept the task?

Seeing that the commission was only an expert-level assignment and the employer was Kayla, with whom he had a close relationship, Wayne agreed without much thought.

"No problem, you decide the time. I can execute this commission at any time."
