Chapter 195

"Rub ......" The tavern resounded with the sound of a dozen sword draws. But then they were stopped by a scolding.

"Stop, you bastards." A young girl at the counter shouted, and it directly suppressed this group of unruly bandits. Su Yuan looked sideways. She was very tall, about the same size as Geralt, and a little taller than Su Yuan. The hair is disheveled and yellowish. The face is full of heroism, but there is a faint sense of ruthlessness. She had a long sword hanging from her waist and a dagger embedded with gems on the other.

"I'm sorry, I apologize for this group of unreasonable bastards. They are so uneducated. Interested in taking one of my jobs? Kill a demon. By the way, my name is Renfrey, their boss. ”

"That's enough, let's go ask someone else." Geralt didn't seem to want Su Yuan to talk to Renfrey, so he directly interrupted him and left with Su Yuan.

"Why don't you hear what she has to say?" Su Yuan asked Geralt.

"We are witchers and should not intervene in human grievances. Grant, you'll understand later. The world is not kind to us. We're not heroes, we're just witchers. Learning to be neutral is the way to survive in this world. ”

"Really? Is this your credo? Geralt. He has no faith and lives aimlessly, like a ghost, wandering the world. ”

At this time, Geralt had not yet met Ciri, Yennefer. That light has not yet appeared in life. He's just living aimlessly now. I don't know where I'm going tomorrow, I don't know what I'm going to do the next moment. Chase the signs everywhere and hunt down the monsters that are messed up. In exchange for money, then spend night after night in taverns and brothels. At this time, Geralt lived like a walking corpse.

"There aren't many witchers left in this world, and most people don't like us, we ......" Geralt was about to say something, but Su Yuan interrupted him.

"Why make them like it? Are we living in this world to be liked by the incompetent? We have the power that ordinary people do not have, and we should take our own destiny into control as a matter of course. If you don't want to do it, then I'll go. Don't forget to give me half of the money when you change it. ”

Su Yuan said, turned around and returned to the tavern. Geralt sighed and went on to find the mayor.

Renfrey was pouring a beer about the size of her head. Putting down the wine glass, he suddenly realized that there was an extra person in front of him. was so frightened that he almost drew his sword directly, and after seeing that it was Su Yuan, he calmed down again.

"Interested?"

"Sort of."

"Would you like to hear my story?"

"Nothing to do anyway?" Su Yuan shrugged his shoulders, and then opened a can of beer, the kind he brought. There's no way he's going to drink the beer that smells of rotten wood in a pub. On Furui glanced at the delicate 'wine glass' in Su Yuan's hand, and then began to tell about her past.

"My name is Renfrey, Princess of Claydon. On the day I was born, the black sun cursed. You know the Black Sun Curse. ”

"A special and rare celestial phenomenon, of course."

"Celestial phenomena, this is a good statement, much better than the curse of the black sun. But that's really my curse. My stepmother, she believes in this curse. Well, maybe it has nothing to do with the curse, it's just that she doesn't like me. She found a warlock, Strigab. Let him investigate my influence under the curse of the Black Sun. That was the beginning of a real curse in my life......"

With that, Ron Fris took another long sip of beer and continued.

"It didn't take long for him to determine that I was under the influence of the curse. I fled, and then he sent a villain to hunt me down and kill me. The world knows that I pierced the villain's ear with a brooch. But how many know how exactly I did it? I couldn't beat him at all, so I had to do it when he raped me. I didn't even know that he was going to make a shot at the last second. So, he died, and I lived.

In the time that followed, I sold my body two hundred and seven times. Stealing, scamming, killing. I did all these things in order to live. I learned to use a sword in killing, and I got stronger and stronger. Strygab found that the killers he had sent were no longer able to kill me. This time it was my turn to hunt him down.

It took me a long time to lock down his place. I knew he was in that tower. He was a coward and would never dare to face me directly. But I'll do it tomorrow. He is obligated here. Because he promised the mayor to protect the town. If he doesn't come out, I'll slaughter the whole town. Of course, the Witcher will be able to enter the Tower, so if you are able to enter the Tower......"

"Tell me about your men." Su Yuan suddenly interrupted her and asked about her subordinates instead.

Len Furui glanced at Su Yuan in surprise and seemed to understand something.

"I know what you mean. There is one thing to say, the kind that all have to go to the gallows. ”

"Very well, now, let's talk about compensation."

On the other side, Geralt hit a wall. A little girl claims to know where the mayor is, but instead of taking him to the mayor's house, she goes to a strange tower. He is received by a warlock and tries to convince him to let him kill Renfrey. Black robe, half-bald, with a greasy face. A warlock who calls himself Ilion and is actually known as Strygob.

"Why everyone wants me to make a choice today. I never make that choice. I'm a witcher, and I only kill monsters. Geralt unsurprisingly declined.

"That girl is a monster. This is not my personal will, but a prophecy. It's for the world. The prophecy tells me that the curse of the black sun on the girl born will bring disaster to the whole world.

I know this is an unacceptable task for you, to kill a girl who has no grievances. But you know what would happen if she lived, and you wouldn't think so. The Black Sun Curse could kill countless people. Compare the lesser of two evils. Killing this girl is a minor evil for you. But if you don't kill, it's a great evil. What choice do you have to make at such a time? ”

Geralt was about to retort when a response came from the door.

"Really? The lesser of two evils? That's your reason? Is killing Renfrey a minor evil? So what about killing you? You know, she said the same thing to me. I just want to know, what is it to kill you? ”

Under Strygeb's surprised gaze, Su Yuan forcibly passed through the defensive magic at the door and walked into the courtyard. Furious lightning slammed into him, but he didn't feel it. He wore it and walked in front of Strigob.

"Tell me, Mr. Strigob. When you dissect the girls born in the dark (and he did)? Is it the lesser of two evils? Or is it in your heart that a small evil is not evil? Did those girls curse you before they died? Or did they not speak when they died? ”

Su Yuan slowly walked in front of Strigebu, and Changxia in his hand was on the ground. With his hands on the hilt of his sword, he looked at the warlock in front of him without a hint of expression.
