Three Jackdaws

Wayne had planned a housewarming party and as he didn't have many friends in Vizima City, and the only ones who could be regarded as upper-class people were Leverdon and Keira. Others, such as the dwarves in the blacksmith shop, and a few acquaintances in the Old Yueke Inn, are all friends in the market. And it is impossible for the Godling family to appear at the dinner party in the city openly.

After all, there are probably no more than 20 people. He is a person who likes to be lively. This time, he plans to invite all his friends to come to his house as guests for this dinner, and he simply has an open-air barbecue dinner in the backyard.

He went to the market to purchase all kinds of meat, vegetables, and fruits. After they were prepared and marinated, he showed off their skills at the dinner party, so that everyone could have a happy dinner. As for alcoholic drinks, the dozen or so bottles of fine wine Keira gave him would certainly not be used to entertain guests.

Moreover, most dwarves actually don't like to drink elegant wine. What they like is big mouthfuls of beer and high-concentration spirits that can make their whole bodies hot. For this reason, he simply bought seven or eight large barrels of Vizima Champion and a dozen bottles of fruit wine of various flavors, which cost him a full four hundred orens. While preparing the ingredients for the dinner, Wayne suddenly remembered that Levardon, who had helped him a lot in many things, liked the bear's paw he cooked very much.

It so happened that there was a lack of game on the table, so he mounted his horse and took the longbow given to him by Toruviel, ready to go hunting in the forest. However, when he rode his horse through the gate of Vizima and was about to ride in the direction of the forest, he saw three people in rather weird costumes walking on the road ahead.

The leader was a middle-aged man, a bit squat, with thick chestnut curly hair, wearing a cotton gown and a dark brown tunic, with a white coat of arms sewn on the clothes, the background color was yellow, and three blackbirds stood side by side in the middle, with riding boots on their feet, and no weapons on their bodies. This was not unusual, but the two people following him were very conspicuous. They were two girls with wheat-colored skin. They had special blue tattoos on their faces. They were confident, pretty, and had excellent figures. They were not weak like ordinary women, but strong and agile like cheetahs. Even in the cold spring now, they were still wearing cool clothes.

They donned what seemed to be leather black tube tops, revealing toned bellies with obvious abdominal muscles, and a pair of long and straight beautiful legs wrapped in lynx leather shorts that only covered the base of the thighs. On their shoulders, gloves, and leg armor, they wore special chainmail. From the positions of their shoulders on both sides, the handles of two sabers could also be seen. Wayne narrowed his eyes slightly, and he recognized it. Judging from their dressing they were unmistakably Zerrikanian female warriors. It was recorded in Kaer Morhen's books. The sabers behind them were the very famous Zerrikanian sabers among weapons.

And the attire of the chunky man, the coat of arms of the three blackbirds, and the features of the two Zerrikanian girls following him made a name pop out of Wayne's mind instantly: Three Jackdaws Borch. As for his other name, sorry, because it was too long and too convoluted, Wayne didn't remember it at all. The reason why Wayne was so impressed with this man was because of Borch the Three Jackdaws. He was not a human being, but a golden dragon that could stand at the upper level of power in the wizarding world. A golden dragon that could transform into a human was almost unique even in the entire wizarding world.

As if Wayne had been staring at him for too long, Borch also noticed the young man riding towards him. When he saw Wayne's distinctive amber cat eyes, Borch was taken aback for a moment, and then a look of interest appeared on his chubby face. He kicked the horse under him, took the initiative to speed up, rode to Wayne's side, and said: "Excuse me, young gentleman, are you a witcher?"

Hearing Borch's question, Wayne's expression didn't change, but his thoughts turned. According to the original development of the plot, this time point should indeed be approaching the time when the dragon slaying plot in the story takes place. Without his existence, the protagonist Geralt should have gone to other cities to look for work, and then met Borch in front of him in a commission to deal with basilisks, and then the follow-up story happened. With his appearance now, everything has become completely different from the past. But there was no time for him to think too much, Wayne nodded to Borch with a faint smile on his face, and said: "Yes, I am a witcher."

Borch immediately showed an excited expression. He clapped his palms and said happily:

"Great. When I was traveling in the north, I have always heard about the legends of witchers. I am very interested in your profession. Unfortunately, I have never had the chance to meet each other. It is quite a pity," Borch expressed, his eyes gleaming with curiosity. "My name is Borch, and my friends call me the Three Jackdaws. I am a knight who has traveled several kingdoms."

"Although it's a bit presumptuous, I don't know if there is a chance to invite you to have lunch with us today," he continued, extending the invitation. "It just so happens that we are going to rest in the city. You are familiar with Vizima City. You can choose a tavern with the best taste, and let us experience the food of Vizima City."

After Borch said this, the two girls following him also showed interested expressions, with quite bright smiles on their faces, and they all looked at Wayne with bright eyes.

Wayne considered the invitation, intrigued by the prospect of sharing a meal with a golden dragon and two foreign beauties. 'To be honest, no matter how the plot develops later, it is quite interesting to be able to share lunch with a golden dragon transformed into a human and two beauties from foreign countries, listen to their experiences, and chat about each other's thoughts,' he thought.

And Wayne learned from the story that this golden dragon, whose alias is Three Jackdaws, is also a good friend, worthy of association. So after thinking about it for a few seconds, he nodded to Borch, with a cheerful smile on his face, and said: "My name is Wayne. Don't bother, I invite you to my house for lunch. I am very curious, and I am also very interested in a knight who has traveled to various countries."

With a playful glance at the two Zerrikanian female warriors following Borch, he added, "And meeting such intriguing company is an opportunity I wouldn't want to miss."

"Also, being able to have dinner with two beautiful girls from Zerrikanian is also a good thing," Wayne added with a grin. "As for my cooking skills, hehe, I'm not bragging. After you taste my cooking skills, you will know what real delicacy is."

Borch didn't expect the young witcher to be so enthusiastic, inviting him to dinner at home despite meeting for the first time. However, as a powerful golden dragon, he was fearless and genuinely intrigued by Wayne. Without hesitation, he responded, "That's great, I love your hospitality, Wayne. However, as a guest, I can't visit your house empty-handed. Please take me to the best tavern in the city first. I want to buy a few bottles of the best wine as a gift for the visit."
