Chapter 618: War in the North
Geralt made a name for himself as he traveled the world, and his agile skills and graceful demeanor made many people change their paranoid attitudes towards witchers. He also used his elegant manners to find a lot of valuable information for himself. At this moment, he can be regarded as a thorough understanding, it turns out that what he has learned can sometimes really bring him rich rewards. Although, not everyone buys him, but the accidental harvest is enough to satisfy him.
As he continues to take on new tasks, his wallet has become richer. During his travels, he also became acquainted with the bard Dandrien. Through Dandrien's connections, he became acquainted with Yennefer from Vangerberg. However, later, because of Dijing's magic, Geralt and Yennefer's fate were tied together.
And the acquaintance with Yennefer also allowed Geralt to meet her friend through Yennefer, Tris Meligard of Maribo, who was also a sorceress like Yennefer. However, Geralt, who was not kind, also chatted with Triss and went to bed. However, the private life of a sorceress is extremely erosive, and it is not unacceptable to sleep with other men. Anyway, they can't have children and have their own offspring. Therefore, it seems more casual to treat one's own private life.
With the gradual passage of time, the wheel of history is also rolling forward.
And in the south, a human kingdom called Nilfgaard has finally welcomed back its rightful heir, Enshir Enrith.
With the help of Geralt and a druid named Mossak, he lifted the curse from the Warlock. He then returned to Nilfgaard, where he had been stoic for decades. Eventually, the usurper's corpse was passed through and he sat on his throne as he wished. Became, the Emperor of Nilfgaard.
He began to govern his country carefully, increasing the power of Nilfgaard, and gradually encroaching on some small states to the north, expanding the territory of Nilfgaard. At the same time, Encher was also a very different monarch, he treated some countries that were willing to surrender, kept their royal family, and continued to let him govern the country. However, he surrendered to Nilfgaard and accepted Nilfgaard's assignment in some matters. At the same time, the conquest in Enhill's heart is gradually deepening, and he wants to completely conquer the many human beings who are divided. Wanting to restore Nilfgaard's territory to the grandeur of the ancient elven realm, he pointed his troops to the north and began a military campaign against Ebbing.
In Nilfgaard, small states such as Ebbin, Mechit, Nasser, Medina, and Giso were successfully annexed. However, it was also because of the annexation of these small countries that it attracted the targeting of the northern states. Thus, the prelude to the First Northern War began.
At the same time, the warlock advisors and neutrals in the north who served the royal families also wanted to expand the influence of warlocks and mages through the First Northern War. They wanted to put an end to Nilfgaard's military aggression and thus increase the influence of the Warlock community. To this end, the warlocks intend to convene a meeting to discuss a concrete and feasible plan.
Bang Bang Bang!
There was a crisp knock on the door, and it wasn't long before Francesca opened the door, and when she saw the figure standing outside the door, she couldn't help but ask, "Kayla, why are you here?" ”
The person who came was a petite man with long blond hair, green eyes, and a low-cut blouse with a deep V, and a faint halo and a bare snow-white hemisphere that could be clearly seen from both sides, a sorceress from Karias. Her full name is Kayla Metz.
"I got your address from Philippa." Kayla said with a smile, looking at Francesca's dress and grooming, and hesitated, "You... Married? ”
Francesca was delighted, she smiled and pulled her in, and said, "I am in a special situation, and have been living together for almost a hundred years. It's just that I haven't waited for my wedding yet. The expression on her face was dejected. Kayla comforted her, "Honey, you'll get what you want." Then, she added, "By the way, who is your partner..."
Francesca laughed, "It's an elf, and a high elf. ”
Kayla was surprised, and then she gossiped about their acquaintance. Later, Francesca told Kayla about her acquaintance with Jiang Ning.
"The High Elves are very emotional, so you need to take advantage of the opportunity."
Francesca nodded, "Our relationship is stable at the moment, and although we don't have contact with the outside world here, we still have our own lives. You can go out and play, or you can study spells and potions of interest together. In short, life is very fulfilling. Kayla asked, "And what about your 'life'?" ”
"If you look at me now, you should know."
Kayla looked at her face and saw that she was dressed luxuriously and elegantly, and couldn't help but praise, "Although you are not serving the royal family, your quality of life has not decreased at all. She was envious of that. She was a sorceress who liked court life and extravagant banquets, admired a rich and luxurious life, liked to haunt high society, and socialized with either noble ministers or the royal family. Therefore, this kind of seclusion is not liked by Kayla Maze at all.
Then, she began to decorate and decorate the house extensively, praising it, "The High Elves are indeed very rich, as can be seen from the decoration here. From the outside, it looks ordinary, but on the inside, it's extremely luxurious. Moreover, I have long heard that the High Elves have special spells that have room for expansion, which are different from the spells we have mastered. Their spells can be freely expanded. Who would have thought that the interior of an oak tree would be a different scene? Then she asked, "By the way, what about your one?" ”
Francesca pointed to the window in the distance, through which Kayla saw the cliff mountains, the clouds in the sky, and the various flowers and herbs that were cultivated. "He's in the garden, tending to the flowers and medicines he raises." She said, "Let's go, I'll introduce you." She wasn't worried about her sweetheart being snatched away, because she knew very well that he had a very high vision.
At the same time, Kayla Maze was also curious about the High Elves in Francesca's heart. Because, she once wanted to serve the High Elf Realm, but she was not accepted. Because the Valley of the Elves is very exclusive, except for a few humans who are recognized and accepted by them, serve them, and are ruled by them, it is difficult for foreign humans to enter the official capital of the High Elves. Some humans rarely have the chance to see the High Elves, and they only see the descendants of the High Elves, half-elves. Therefore, Kayla also wants to get to know the 'rich one' among the High Elves According to her understanding, this should also belong to the noble category among the High Elves, otherwise, there would not be the money to decorate her residence so luxuriously.
With that, Francesca led Keira Metz towards the garden.
