The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 76 The Snow Demon Rebellion
"Now that it's happened, there's no point in complaining."

Compared to Ander's impotent rage, Earl Ryan was very calm.

"Although we lost Evelyn, the capital is still in our hands!"

Earl Ryan said in a deep voice: "The top priority now is to control the situation and let the lords of the Duchy of Tar recognize your status!"

"That's right!"

Ander's eyes flickered, and he said, "Uncle, how is the situation in the western region?"

"I have sent people to the west."

Ryan nodded and said: "As long as you get the support of the western border, coupled with our layout in the southern border, it will definitely help you ascend to the throne!"

"In the next period of time, you should prepare well."

"After the enthronement ceremony, you will be the new king of the Duchy of Tar!"

Hearing Earl Lane's words, Ander's eyes flashed brightly.

"The new king!"

Thinking of the enthronement ceremony not long after, Ander couldn't help but get excited.

……

The Principality of Tar, the northern border.

On the barren plain, a gust of cold wind blew by, and a cavalry roared past in the distance. The leader was wearing crimson close-fitting leather armor.

Red Knight, Myrcella!
A huge city in the distance gradually appeared in front of my eyes, Myrcella accelerated and led the cavalry under him towards the city gate.

The main city in the north, Winter City.

After entering the city, Myrcella came to the castle immediately. In a study room, she saw the second princess Hester who was watching the sand table.

At this moment, Histor was wearing a light green gauze dress, his figure outlined by silver-white silk threads was more perfect, and his long black hair was smoothly scattered on his shoulders.

Hearing someone coming in, Histor raised his head.

"Your Highness."

Myrcella saluted slightly.

"Have you found Evelyn?" Hester said calmly, but a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

"Sorry, no."

Myrcella shook her head and sighed: "I have dispatched all the scouts, but I still haven't found any trace of His Royal Highness Evelyn."

"However, according to reliable news from the capital, Her Royal Highness Evelyn has indeed fled the capital and killed many Royal Guards."

As he spoke, a trace of hesitation flashed in Myrcella's eyes.

Although the information she received was clear, Myrcella really couldn't imagine how that weak and timid girl killed the Kingsguard.

If I had known earlier, the dungeon of the capital is not a good place.

Even the most vicious people would find it difficult to get out of the dungeon. What's more, the third prince Ander knew the importance of Evelyn, so he must have many Kingsguard guards in the dungeon.

But even so, Evelyn still escaped and killed all the guards guarding her.

"Didn't find it?"

Histor frowned slightly, and a thoughtful gleam flashed in his eyes.

For some special reasons, she wasn't worried about Evelyn's safety, but she didn't know why Evelyn, who had already escaped from the capital, didn't go to the north immediately.

You know, the Duke of the North, as Hester's grandfather, is also Evelyn's grandfather.

Only by returning to the North can Evelyn be absolutely safe.

"Send some more people."

Histor pondered for a moment, and said, "No matter what method you use, you must find Evelyn."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Myrcella nodded, and said again: "Since His Royal Highness Evelyn has escaped, are we going to attack the capital?"

While speaking, Myrcella's eyes flickered.

Previously, the suppression of the cross gang rebellion in the southern border allowed her to establish enough merits to become the lord of a city. Now, not only does she not have the slightest fear of the upcoming war, but she is a little excited in her heart.

For a knight, the battlefield is the best place to practice.

Myrcella longed for war, she never denied it.

"Not for now."

Histor shook his head, his eyes flickered and said: "Now that the father is dead, Ander and I are not the only ones who are capable of competing for the throne."

"If I attack the capital now, I may be able to lose Ander, but it may not be guaranteed, and others will not take advantage of it!"

Hearing Hester's words, Myrcella was thoughtful.

In the Duchy of Tal today, there are not many people who are capable of competing for the throne. Among them, the most powerful are the second princess Hester, the third prince Ander, and the fourth prince Galen.

In Hester's eyes, compared to the third prince Ander, the fourth prince Gallon is the real threat.

The other party has the support of the Duke of the Eastern Realm, so their strength is naturally not to be underestimated.

If Histor attacked the capital at this moment, even if he succeeded in destroying Ander, there was a high possibility that the fourth prince, Galen, would take advantage of it.

Therefore, in a short time, Hester does not plan to deal with Ander.

"By the way, what's the situation in Bing Xin Principality?" Suddenly, Hester asked.

"The Snow Demon Rebellion has been suppressed."

Misera pondered for a moment, then shook her head and said, "However, I heard that a large number of ghouls have appeared on the border of the Great Wall of Impossibility, so that people in the Bingxin Principality are panicking."

"Not long ago, Queen Sandra sent a letter to Lord Botha, hoping that the northern border could send some people to support the Great Wall."

"However, Lord Botha did not respond."

The Lord Botha that Myrcella mentioned is the Duke of the North and Hester's grandfather at the same time.

"Grandpa won't promise Queen Sandro this time."

Histor shook his head. The Principality of Tar is now in a tense situation, and all forces are trying their best to compete for the throne.

Although the Northern Territory and the Principality of Bingxin have had a good relationship for many years.

But now, they are unable to give any support to Bing Xin Principality.

"It seems that Queen Sandra will be disappointed."

Myrcella also nodded, Queen Sandra is the current ruler of Bingxin Principality, and also the guardian of the Great Wall.
