From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 65: Who to go to Toussaint with?

Caranther said: “There are no warlocks in Sintra, you know. ”

Ister nodded and wrapped his arms around his lover’s waist: “Mossack is a druid, I know.” ”

Caranther approached the other’s chest a little tiredly and said, “My family is suffering from magic. My mother was like this, and so was my daughter Pavita, only I got away with choosing the sword. It was magic carried by blood, and for me it was not power, it was a curse.

You are reluctant to have children with me, because you find it difficult to reconcile the ancient blood of the Sintra royal family with the fiery nature of the Skelligans. That’s why I don’t want Lane and Ciri to be together.

I had read a lot of books left by my mother, and I was worried that the union of Ciri and Rann would strengthen the power of this magic again, which would bring more misfortune. I don’t want that power to grow, I don’t even want it to last, I just want it to go away! ”

When it comes to his daughter, who died early, Caranther becomes weak. East hugged his lover tightly and sighed in his heart.

“My love? ”

“I’m in. ”

“What Rann said actually makes sense, write to your brother, the small unit of the navy is more secure, and the excess loss is borne by Sintra. I can’t afford to lose a single loved one again. ”

“Of course, my love. ”

Outside the royal palace.

Lan looked at the distant sky, and at this time the sun was thin and dusk had arrived.

Where have all your attendants gone?

…………

“How did you find us? ”

Sward and House looked at each other and asked their comrades who were holding the whole wine jug in front of them to quench their thirst.

“I went to the tavern, and the owner told me that Lord Count had given you a big bag of money. Ace gulped the wine jug and wiped his mouth hesitantly, “You two guys have money, where else can you go?” ”

Ace, Swarde, and House looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths gradually rose.

“Mr. Geralt, what do you think of this place? ”

The white wolf who was pressed to the ground picked up the person who was pressing on him, gently put it down, picked up a small mirror on the table amid the laughter of the other party, and looked at the “rose print” on his neck.

“I regret not coming back to Sintra in recent years. ”

The three attendants smiled with satisfaction, they felt that they had fulfilled Lord Count’s task perfectly.

“Yet. House suddenly worried, “I don’t know when Lord Count will return from the palace, Ace can find us, Lord Count will definitely find us.” ”

“Find it, find it, doesn’t Lord Count like this too?” ”

“You forgot? Last time because of the ‘rose seal’ matter, Lord Count was very angry, and said that he would never pay us again. ”

After being reminded by House, Ace and Schild woke up like a dream, and then they looked solemn.

Their gaze gradually shifted to the cloth bag embroidered with vines and leaves on the table.

“How about we spend the money quickly now?” ”

“No, okay…”

Before the words fell, the door of their private room was suddenly opened, and the noisy singing, whistling, cheering, and moaning outside poured in.

A young man with a lion embroidered with gold thread on his chest walked in, and silk robes wrapped his slender and robust body like a sculpture. Behind him were several girls, their eyes shining.

The three attendants hurriedly got up and saluted, “Lord Count! ”

The three attendants shouted in their hearts: Sure enough, I found it!

Lane looked at Geralt who was pinned to the floor again and laughed, and said to the three attendants: “Go out and find another room, I have something to tell Geralt.” ”

The three nodded and said yes, pulled the Yingying Yanyan beside him and walked out, and smoothly liberated Geralt who was pressed to the ground.

“Wait. Lane tilted his head and gestured to the money bag on the table, “Take it with you too.” ”

The three attendants were elated: “Yes!” ”

The Wolf Sect Demon Hunter, who once claimed to be emotionless, was lying on his back on the floor at the moment, squinting his eyes and smashing his mouth, as if he was reminiscing.

The white wolf sighed: “You didn’t come at the right time. ”

Rann sat down next to Geralt to pour himself a jug of wine, but found it to be an empty bottle and threw it away in a daze.

“I just came out of the palace. ”

“Did you mention me to Caranther? ”

“The Queen has long known you are coming. ”

Jello nodded, sat up, and said with a mocking face

“I guess she told you to keep Ciri away from me? ”

Lane nodded.

“The queen always told me to stay away from her granddaughter, to guard me from being like a wolf. Geralt lamented, “But the druids always advised me to take away the unexpected son, thinking that resisting fate would bring disaster to fate and eventually destroy the kingdom.” ”

Geralt picks up the wine glass, only to find that there is no wine; I wanted to look for a wine jug, but found that it had long been thrown aside.

The demon hunter whispered, “his fate.” ”

Lane shook his head: “I didn’t believe in fate before, until a year ago. After seeing something, I felt that even if I didn’t believe it, I had to stay in awe. ”

Geralt threw the empty wine glass aside: “Your queen is the opposite of you, she once sent eight people to kill me in order to defy fate. ”

Lan was stunned, he didn’t expect that Caranther had actually done such a thing.

But it really seemed like something she could do.

“Sorry, Geralt. ”

“None of your business. And those eight people need to apologize even more. ”

Rann opened the door and called out to the waiter and brought in two bottles of Everus.

Geralt reached out and took it, and the two gently clinked glasses and took a long drink.

“When do you want to start the sword art and monster knowledge you want to learn? It’s over early, and I’d get out of here early. ”

“Even if my side ends early, your armor won’t be completed so quickly. I asked the court craftsman, your armor is not light armor, but it is not heavy armor, the most suitable design is middle armor, but this is the most difficult. The process is more complex than ordinary armor and takes some time. ”

Geralt took a sullen sip of wine.

“Although, I don’t think a set of armor can leave you in Sintra. Lane looked into Geralt’s eyes, which were facing Amber Cat’s Eyes, “But there’s no way to attract you to Dausintra, right?” ”

Geralt was silent for a moment and said, “What do you want to say?” Rann? ”

“You didn’t come to Sintra for some so-called payment, and how much money doesn’t affect your mind. You want to come back on your own, but you tripped your right foot with your left foot, and you have to wait until someone gives you a suitable reason. You do not resist fate, nor do you resist your child of destiny, Geralt. You resist yourself. ”

Geralt was silent, drank another glass of wine, drank another glass, and finally looked up and emptied the bottle, snatching Rann’s wine again.

“You’ll pay, right? ”

“If you’re drunk, I still have something to talk to you about.” ”

Geralt shook his head, “Now is not the time, Lan. Not the time. ”

“Well, I say this only in the hope that you can protect Ciri in the future. Lane sighed, “Then let’s talk about another commission.” ”
