The king, Pepin the Short, marched against him, despoiling the land of Berry and Auvergne. Waifer did homage and promptly Pepin left to deal with other things.As soon as the Frankish monarch had returned to his domains, Waifer rebelled again. The contumacious vassal ravaged Burgundy, prompting Pepin to come south again in 761. He took Clermont and Auvergne in that year and, in the following years (762/763), Berry and Bourges. According to the continuator of the Chronicle of Fredegar, Waifer opposed Pepin cum exercito magno et plurima Wasconorum qui ultra Garonnam commorantur, quem antiquitus vocati sunt Vaceti: "with a great and large army of Vascones from across the Garonne, who in antiquity were called Vaceti".
