[ It's probably in jest, and she's not actually misunderstanding -- but Ciri answers seriously anyway, just in case he had any doubts. ]
I won't tell anyone, Viktor. It's your business, not mine to share.
[ His offer gives her pause. She remembers the dream--
But a dream is all it is.
If he wants to show her, she will admit she's curious. And it seems he does want to, or he wouldn't have mentioned it. She knows that well enough by now. ]
I'd be interested in seeing it.
[ She doesn't question why he'll smash it, doesn't show any surprise (though there is a flicker of it, privately). He's already made his decision, it seems. Somehow, it doesn't make her any less anxious, but she respects him for already thinking that far. There is a lot Ciri doesn't understand, but between all Viktor's told her and what was shared without them quite voluntarily choosing it... it's enough. Enough to know this means a lot. Enough to treat it with the somberness it warrants. ]

My offer stands, Viktor.
You needn't do this alone.
