In the end, it compromised at a low, throaty chuckle, but he affectionately patted Arlaine on the cheek, his large hand all but cradling her face. "No need to sound too surprised," He grumbled good-naturedly," I'm not wrong all that often. Not that you would notice."<br/><br/>"Besides," He said, gripping her shoulder and gently guiding her to walk with him back to the castle of Kaer Morhen," You did treat our training dummy rather roughly, or my enhanced senses are in need of some instruction," In truth, all he had heard from a different room was her asking for Elias' weapon and then the sound of a magic-enhanced strike to something made of straw and wood, as well as the smokey, appley smell of straw burning. Senses enhanced as they were, coupled with a sharp mind made the science of deduction all that much easier.<br/><br/>"And I doubt you'll be replacing it yourself. And magic doesn't count," He completed. Magic was cheating in so many ways. He didn't care how long it took sorceresses to learn all of their tricks. When they used those tricks to make their everyday lives more comfortable and easier, using their powers to avoid work, it was cheating. Even with the witcher's serums and potions and the advantages of the Trial of Grasses, which in itself was a harrowing experience, the Witchers-to-be had been beaten and shaped roughly into creatures of violence and death.<br/><br/>"Take care of yourself, okay? Bella will be occupied for a while now, unless I miss my guess, so now is the best opportunity to search for your mirror. Take care, little one," He winked and jogged off, making for the pathway that would avoid the main room of the castle up to his room.
