The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World
Chapter 43 The truth behind Adela's death
Marvin's oath sounded very serious to the two sorceresses.
Tishaya breathed a sigh of relief. She was also worried that Marvin would have a falling out with Kaedwen because of this.
"Huh..." Sabina let out a long breath and said, "It was you Temeria who started the incident back then. You controlled the Pontar Valley at that time, right?"
Marvin nodded.
"Then you inexplicably joined forces with Aedirn to launch a year-long blockade against Kaedwen. Financial documents show that Kaedwen's import and export trade decreased by 80% that year." The sorceress asked angrily, "Tell me why that was?!"
This woman is really hot-tempered. She's about to quarrel.
"Because I was assassinated." Marvin said calmly, "Although the assassination failed, I am a prince. We have evidence that the instigator is in Ban Ade College."
"Snow Mountain!" Sabina was even more angry, "What does that have to do with Kaedwen? Everyone knows that Kaedwen has limited control over that shitty college!"
"But Ban Ade is still in Kaedwen, and you have recruited many spies from there." Marvin spread his hands, "So, we are very polite for not attacking Kaedwen directly."
Sabina's chest rose and fell several times before she calmed down her anger and asked, "Were you really assassinated?"
Marvin nodded.
She looked at the dean again.
Tishaya also nodded.
"Okay." Sabina believed it, and he continued to tell the story...
When the economic blockade started, the King of Kaedwen didn't really care. Because he still ate and drank as usual, and nothing was delayed. Only the civilians suffered.
But half a year later, the economic problem rose from the people to the nobles.
The nobles' quality of life has seriously declined because they can't buy fine wine, velvet and beautiful gold and silver jewelry.
Commoners can tolerate it as long as they have something to eat, but nobles and ladies can't tolerate it.
Temeria has a large army stationed in Pontar Valley, and the lords dare not fight. Aedirn and Kaedwen in the south have been fighting, and there is nothing they can do.
What else can they do?
Go to the superiors. The king can't ignore the lives of the nobles.
Letters were sent from various territories in Kaedwen to the capital Ard Kalai and to the desk of His Majesty the King.
The king was very troubled and thought of various ways...
Urged Ban Ard to investigate as soon as possible... but there was no result.
Negotiate with Temeria. If they don't talk, they will investigate the results and then send the culprit over.
Aedirn... can't talk. The hatred between the two sides is great and they are still fighting.
Things dragged on for nearly a year, and Marvin had left the world of witchers.
One day, a spy named Salvatore reported that he had a way to solve Temeria's troubles.
Salvatore was also a dropout from Ban Ade College. After leaving the college, he was recruited and became a Kaedwen spy.
After listening to Salvatore's report, the spy chief was overjoyed and immediately reported it to the king.
Although the king felt that it was not particularly reliable after listening to it, there was no other way. He felt that the throne under his buttocks was not stable. Let's try it.
So Salvatore set off with two people of unknown origin.
Salvatore's hometown is Ban Green, just on the edge of Pontar Valley. It is not difficult to find a way to sneak out.
More than three months later, a plague broke out in the westernmost port town of Blyheywood in Temeria, a plague caused by black magic.
Temeria was already overwhelmed just to prevent the spread of the plague...
But things suddenly took a turn for the better.
More than a month later, Temeria lifted the border blockade, and two months later, the plague in Blyheywood was eradicated.
…
Marvin smelled the scent of Vigfortz from this story.
Even if Vigfortz was behind this, it could not absolve the Kaedwen royal family of its guilt.
Let's put Kaedwen aside first, because it was evening and the inquiry was about to begin.
Marvin thanked Sabina in a fake way, and calmly followed Teacher Tissaya to attend the cocktail party before the inquiry.
Regardless of ancient and modern times, people will learn high-end social methods from the bigwigs of the upper class, even wizards who master magical powers are no exception.
Nowadays, every gathering of the Warlock Brotherhood is more and more like a noble cocktail party.
Sabina Grievishig is a member of the Warlock Brotherhood Council and will also participate in this inquiry.
The three walked towards the Garstang Palace together.
Considering that all activities today were indoors, Marvin left Ned and Modus to roam freely outside Maribor.
Even if there was a battle today, they couldn't help in the narrow room.
He didn't worry about the safety of Raven and Unicorn. It was good enough that the two of them didn't cause trouble to others.
...
A golden chandelier hung on the high dome, and there were silver wall lamps on the walls around. The magic light illuminated the entire hall as if it were daytime.
White tablecloths were spread on the square table and the long table, white bread, fruit and barbecue were piled on the silver plates, and all kinds of drinks were filled in the neatly arranged high-foot glasses.
But no one ate, and no one even sat down. The wizards were holding glasses and chatting in twos and threes, which looked quite "civilized".
Marvin hated this kind of flashy cocktail party, but in order to wait for the "main person" to arrive, he still held back his temper and followed the teacher to talk around.
"Hi! Fran..." Tissaia took Marvin to a beautiful elf in a red dress, "Look who I brought?"
The beautiful elf nodded to the mages around her, walked over to look at Marvin, and asked, "Who is this...?"
"Wait a minute..." Tishaya smiled mysteriously, "The people are not all here yet." Then she walked to the other side.
There were three male mages talking to a rich old man, and their expressions were quite respectful.
"Gerhard!" Tishaya shouted, and the rich old man turned around and looked over...
Tishaya winked, the old man waved his hand, and the three male mages left on their own.
The four of them formed a small circle, and the red-skirted elf urged, "Okay, Tishaya, don't keep us in suspense, who is this young man?"
The rich old man was steady, looking at Marvin with a smile, and didn't say anything.
"Hmm..." Tishaya smiled even more mysteriously, "Then you two have to guess it yourself. When was the last time you saw him in over a hundred years?"
She turned to look at Marvin, and Marvin shrugged. He was too lazy to count.
These three old guys are the ones who helped him and his two sisters to do the bloodline identification.
The beautiful elf is called Francesca Findabe, Daisy of the Valley, the prophet of the Elf Ain Sidi, one of the five members of the Art and Craft Association, and has lived from the Elf Empire era to the present.
The rich old man is called Gerhard of Elle, and once had a name called Hen Gedimidis. He is the dean of Ban Ade College and one of the five members of the association.
His father is the first generation of human immigrants. He himself doesn't remember how long he lived. He is one of the first spellcasters among humans.
The four people who helped the "Hotbergburg Triplets" to do the bloodline identification are still missing one, Augusta Wagner, but this person will not come today.
The two also knew Marvin's identity and sighed. The beautiful elf was more curious about why Marvin was still so young after nearly a hundred years.
Tishaya knew that it was inconvenient for the student to refuse Francesca's question, so she helped cover up the past.
The three talked about the past and magic research. Marvin was a bit idle...
In another corner not far away, a plump sorceress pointed at Marvin with her chin and asked her good sister next to her: "Sabina, who is that young man?"
"Why? Philippa, are you interested in that handsome guy?" Sabina Grievishig opened her mouth and was about to drive.
Philippa Ehart rolled her eyes at her unhappily, "I'm just curious, how can he be among those three old guys."
"Don't ask me..." Sabina spread her hands, "I promised Dean Veris that I can't tell you."
"Ouch~!" Philippa began to be sarcastic, "The famous daughter of the wasteland has become a good child?"
There was a small commotion at the entrance of the hall.
