Chapter XVII: The Sorceress Mutual Aid Society 3
"She's so pretty." Melissa, who was sitting next to her, muttered.
Vantessin glanced away from him, as if he was jealous of the Lady Enid.
Su Ziyu's eyes also fell on this Lord Enid, I have to say that her facial features are really very exquisite, he has never seen a few women with such delicate facial features. This lady looks a little petite and delicate, but her figure is slender and slender, with long dark blonde smooth hair hanging down, slender willow eyebrows, a small nose, slightly thin lips, calm but sharp eyes, a little red mole in the center of her eyebrows, a maple leaf-shaped pendant on her chest, three rings on her right hand, red, yellow and green, and two rings on her left hand, green and purple.
When her figure appeared, it inexplicably gave people a faint pressure.
His Excellency Enid's gaze swept through the crowd and soon landed on Su Ziyu.
She leaned over slightly, her attitude quite modest.
Then she gracefully came to the first seat of the banquet, raised her wine glass to Su Ziyu and Fan Tesin and said, "Thank you two Excellencies for your help!" β
Su Ziyu and Fan Tesin stood up and raised their glasses in return.
During this time, he learned a lot about Lord Enid, who was said to be one of the most powerful sorceresses on the South Coast, who could summon a terrible storm, and was the only caster of teleportation spells in the Sorceress' Society. She had left to track down people who were said to be able to planetravel, and the Sorceress Society believed to have brought the terrible plague to them.
After the appearance of this lady Enid, the other sorceresses suddenly became much more honest.
Su Ziyu could roughly see that there were three factions in this Sorceress Mutual Aid Association, and the dominant one among them was definitely this Lady Enid. Alice and Daisy were both her followers, and the two sorceresses could see a slight difference in appearance from the others, as if they possessed a small portion of elven blood.
The second is a small group of sorceresses led by Judy, who are supposed to be of noble origin, rich in money, and very wealthy.
Probably most of the Sorceress's activities are funded by them.
The last one was Elena who came to thank Su Ziyu, and there were also several sorceresses gathered around her, all of whom should be from civilian backgrounds. As for the other sorceresses, they all look a little immature, as if they don't have any say here, and they should just be some apprentices who have just awakened.
"Sisters."
Halfway through the feast, Lady Enid stood up and said, "You all know what I left for. β
"But alas, I'm going to tell you, I failed."
"I didn't find the people who spread the plague, they were like a bunch of ghosts that appeared out of thin air, and there was no way to track their tracks."
"And."
"The secular aristocracy and the power of the Church will not listen to our justifications at all, and they will not give up their persecution of us. We have too many sisters who have lost their lives at their hands. β
Enid's words silenced the sorceresses, and many had a hint of trepidation on their faces.
They had hoped to find the source of the plague and wash away the accusations on the witches, but this move was a bit naΓ―ve in Su Ziyu's eyes, even if they found those who spread the plague, how could the secular nobles and church forces admit that they had wronged these witches, wouldn't that mean that the tens of thousands of women who were mutilated in the past were innocent?
This is a terrible blow to their prestige!
"We have no choice." Enid glanced at Fan Tesin and Su Ziyu next to her, and said slowly, "We have to leave here and find a land where we can live freely." β
"I know some people are still reluctant to leave."
Enid's gaze fell on the three sorceresses led by Judy, and said with a serious expression: "But it would be very, very dangerous to stay here!" β
"The Church has bewitched those people."
"Once your identities are revealed, you will face a never-ending hunt."
It seems that the sorceress led by Judy are not too willing to leave.
They have an astonishing wealth here, and a large part of that wealth may come from the land, and these people are not very willing to give it up to go to unknowable and unknown lands.
"The situation in the south is getting more and more tense."
There was a hint of sadness on Enid's expression, and she said slowly, "I just got the news today that Eden Coleman of the Secret Law Society was captured by witch hunters, tortured, and burned to death in Cologne's square. β
"We'll be leaving for the free capital of the Northern Continent in five days."
"Whether you want to leave with us or not, you can think about it yourself."
The sorceresses are all extraordinarily beautiful, and they might be better off if they fall into the hands of the witch hunters of the church, after all, most of them are fanatics, and they will only kill these witches. The most terrible thing is to fall into the hands of the witch hunters organized by those secular forces, over the years, many villains, robbers, and routs have secretly joined the witch hunters to earn bounties, and the witches who fall into their hands are often tortured and bullied before being executed, but the vast majority of the victims are some innocent and beautiful women.
Even witch hunters like Fantesin who don't meddle in the world hate witch hunters very much, and you can imagine how outrageous their behavior has been over the years.
After saying these words, Lady Enid got up to leave, whispered a few words in Alice's ear after leaving, and then looked at Su Ziyu opposite and nodded slightly.
"Lord Enid wants to talk to you alone." Alice came to Su Ziyu's side and whispered.
Su Ziyu turned his head to look at Fan Texin next to him, and got up to leave after the other party signaled that there was no problem.
Before leaving, he noticed that the sorceress Judy on the other side had been staring at him, and the other party raised his glass in salute, and his expression seemed to be a little flattering.
Alice led Suziyu to a room.
When he pushed the door open and entered, he saw Lady Enid lying on her side on a soft bench with a tired and languid expression.
"Thank you for reaching out this time." Ms. Enid tilted her head and looked up and down at Su Ziyu in front of her, and said with some curiosity in her eyes: "I thought that the demon hunters of the cat school were all wiped out in the turmoil of the year, but I didn't expect that there would be a successor." β
Su Ziyu shook his head and sat down, looked directly into the other party's eyes and said, "I'm not a cat school. β
"I'm just an aimless traveler who occasionally takes on tasks to earn money."
Demon hunters in this world are generally short of money, because the cost of brewing potions can sometimes be higher than the bounty of the mission, and Su Ziyu knows how to maintain his current role.
"Okay." Lady Enid didn't seem to want to delve into this question either, and met Su Ziyu's gaze and asked, "Then I want to entrust you to escort us to the Capital of Freedom." β
"I wonder if you're interested?"
"Of course."
Speaking of this, Ms. Enid smiled meaningfully and said, "The reward we give is also very generous. β
