From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 35 Lane wanted to know what was wrong

The tree spirit faced the man and pulled away his bow and arrow, and the pair of comrades who had just fought side by side suddenly became tense.

“I want to go to Dunn Kanal. Behind the man, Ciri suddenly said sullenly, “I have nowhere else to go.” ”

“Kid, you don’t know what you’re talking about. The man protecting Ciri whispered, but lowered his hand holding the hilt of his sword.

He may be helpful, but never nosy. This is one of the rules that people like them have developed over the years – only save those who ask for help.

Seeing this, the tree spirit Brian also put away his bow and arrow with satisfaction.

“Kid, you don’t know what decision you just made. The man sighed again.

Dryad Brian scouts around, according to her, the Yugoon giant centipede are social animals, and they need to leave here as soon as possible to avoid being surrounded by centipedes, so they need to be familiar with the environment of the tree spirit to find a way to walk.

“Actually, I know. Ciri whispered, glancing secretly in the direction of the dryad.

“That’s a dryad, right? I learned about them. Dryads are a female-only race, so they’ll grab human little girls and turn them into dryads with some dryad magic, right? ”

“I’ve also seen in books that they would catch men of other races to give birth, and I didn’t understand how it was. ”

For small children, magic seems to be better understood than physiological science.

The man looked at Ciri in surprise, and he was amazed at the knowledge and sanity displayed in Ciri’s words: “Well… It’s hard for me to explain to you how tree spirits reproduce, little lady. Maybe it’s still a little easier to switch magic. ”

Meeting the man’s surprised gaze, Ciri sniffed, she seemed to be a little cold.

“I also know that this forest is full of them, and you will definitely not be able to beat them, and you are not Ran.” Ciri looked at the tree spirit not far away and whispered, “Lane taught me, and I am a male… I will definitely encounter a situation of being kidnapped and meet bad people who are better than me.

He told me that at this time, he must first agree to the conditions prescribed by the other party and give himself a chance to escape. When the other party relaxes his vigilance, I will find an opportunity to sneak out to find a place to hide, and then wait for him to come and rescue me. ”

The man didn’t know what kind of expression to make, and the little girl in front of him was too unexpected.

But he was pessimistic about Ciri’s intentions: “You’re smart, little Sheila. But I don’t think the one that taught you this method … Rann? He can come here and save you. ”

“Rann will definitely come, definitely! Ciri tilted his head proudly, dismissing the man’s questioning.

“You saved me, and you’re willing to confront the dryad for me, you look like a good guy.” Lane taught me that I could use my strengths to find someone to help me when I was in trouble, rather than doing it myself. Ciri then looked at the man.

“I hire you to protect me now, I have a lot of money, enough to keep mercenaries like you clothed and fed for the rest of their lives. If you have any enemies, I can ask someone to cut off their heads for you. You can rest assured, everything I say can count, and my grandmother gave me such rights. ”

“Give you the right to cut off people’s heads at will? That’s not a good grandmother. The man smiled and said, “Looks like you’re still a princess?” What country are you a princess? ”

“You are not allowed to speak ill of my grandmother, if it weren’t for the fact that you saved me, what you just said would have been enough to cut off your head.” Ciri said angrily, “Because you saved me, that’s why you have this privilege.”

Ren also taught me that I can’t take someone’s sacrifice for granted, even if that person is willing to give his life for me. If someone dies for me, I will reward him and be kind to his family.

You just blocked the centipede in my place and saved my life. So I give you the privilege of forgiving you for your faux pas in bumping into me, and forgiving you for speaking ill of my grandmother just now. But you also have to pay attention to your words, understand? Otherwise, I will take back your privilege. ”

The man felt that this little girl in front of him was too interesting, he had seen too many princesses, but there had never been a princess as good as the one in front of him… It is impossible to come up with words to describe it in the first place.

“Your Lan must have a bad relationship with your grandmother. The man teased, “But what you said makes sense, Your Royal Highness, I will cherish the privilege you gave me.” ”

“Don’t care about things you shouldn’t. Ciri sniffed, “If you behave well, I can even canonize you as a knight, understand?” You can become a nobleman. But I will not seal you personally, because only Rann is my knight, and my knight can only be him. ”

“Yes, yes. The man coaxed in a low voice, “It turns out that Sir Lane is your knight.” Speaking of which, I met Baron Fisnet outside the forest, and he said that he had lost a princess. You’re the princess he lost, right? ”

“Lann is now a count, but he will always be my knight. When you get me out, you’ll be able to gain his friendship. He’s a great guy, you’ll know. “So don’t mention Fiesnet again, even if he’s your friend.” ”

Brian, who was observing the situation nearby, returned, and she reminded the two to leave early, as night approached and they needed to find a place to camp.

Ciri suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked, “That’s not right.” Feznet can’t enter the forest, why can you come in, why didn’t the dryad kill you? ”

“Because I’m not technically human. The man replied, “I am Geralt of Livia, a demon hunter.” ”

“All right, Geralt of Livia. Get ready, I’m going to run away tonight. ”

…………

Lane knew something must be wrong now, but he didn’t know exactly what was wrong.

According to the plot of the original book, the demon hunter Geralt will accept the commission of King Brugg to convey the peace agreement to the Dryad Queen in these days, and accidentally rescue Ciri, who was attacked by the Yugoun giant centipede.

The experienced demon hunter brought out her identity from the mouth of the princess who was not involved in the world with a little inquiry. and decided to take Ciri to Verdon to meet the prince.

Ciri, who did not want to be kissed, immediately hugged the tree spirit’s lap and wanted to follow the tree spirit capital to Blochlon. It wasn’t until she met the Dryad Queen that she knew she was about to be transformed into a dryad.

Finally, for some unknown reason (Rann guesses the blood of the Ancients), Ciri is not affected by the Dryad Transformation Magic, and the Dryad Queen allows Geralt to leave with Ciri.

And the above plot should have ended a day ago. According to normal development, now at this time period, Ciri can be spanked by Queen Caranther in the palace.

The truth is that Ciri is still in the forest without any news.

Looking at the tree spirits in front of him, Lane needed to know what was wrong.

Rann stepped over the bodies of the Verdon soldiers on the ground to the front of the group, shouting, “Tree spirits, we have come for peace!” ”
