Chapter 393: Geralt's Choice

Hermione pulled a delicate bench from the Elven Capital Square and sat down, and began to elaborate on the details of the Demon Hunter Crossing Regiment. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As Hermione spoke, Ciri's smoky eyes grew brighter and brighter, and at the end they looked like two sparkling stars.

"What an amazing team, are you saying that you are backed by the Lord God?" exclaimed Ciri, "Is there really a god in this world?"

"Of course, but Ciri, I'm now officially inviting you to be my retinue. Hermione said nervously, fearing that her companion, who had been with her through thick and thin, would not accept her invitation, "I promise to treat you like myself, though I say it's an entourage." ”

"If you say yes, wear this ring. Hermione took out a retinue ring and handed it to Ciri, "If you refuse, you'll forget this memory." ”

"Of course I accept it. Ciri snatched the infinity direct and put it on her finger without hesitation. Soon, the Infinity Ring melts into her finger and a menu pops up on Ciri's retina.

"Welcome aboard, Ciri. Hermione finally let go of her nervousness and happily hugged Ciri, "We can continue to fight side by side now." ”

Ciri smiled and patted Hermione on the back. Compared to Hermione, who was excited, her face was also happy, but it still revealed a sense of sadness. The thought of not being able to see the loved one who loved her all the time in the future made Ciri feel a sense of melancholy in her heart.

When Edward saw that Ciri's name had been added to the list of retinues, he had already returned to Fortress Viren. Edward could only smile at this, and then buried his head in the pile of report files again.

Geralt, who had recovered, leisurely leaned against the wall with a goblet in his hand, looking at Triss who was reporting the latest information to Edward through the red wine inside.

"Radovid is dead?" Edward said in surprise as he looked at the report in front of him, "As far as I know, His Majesty the King has so much protection by his side, how could he die so easily?"

"Just two days ago, someone assassinated him. Triss frowned a little, "Judging from the traces at the scene, the murderer went through a fierce fight and used a spell to pierce the emperor's chest. He was joined by two court mages and five bodyguards. ”

"If I'm guessing correctly, this should be the work of Filipba and Margarita. Triss pressed her forehead, "Maybe Kayla and the other witches." ”

"I bribed a soldier after the incident. Geralt described, "From his mouth, I conclude that such a scene would require at least five witches to cast spells at the same time. ”

"So Filipba and the other witches don't want to join us?" Edward heard from Geralt's tone.

"To be precise, to be swallowed up by us. Triss said helplessly, "Maybe it's a little too difficult for them to get the power of the Light. Stubborn, she gave up wanting to heal her eyes directly through the Light, and instead chose to take revenge directly by force, eliminating the hatred in her heart, and then indirectly trying to obtain the Light. ”

"They won't succeed, and they'll only get deeper and deeper, and eventually the witches' guild will return to the time when they were spurned. Edward looked at Triss and said, "So, Triss, what do you mean, and Yennefer and Friengira, to split off from the witches' guild, or to continue to be in the same boat?"

"In the past, we might have chosen the latter, but after the battle of Willen, I would definitely choose the former. Triss laughed, "I think Yennefer and Vigo would have chosen the same way." The two of them did the same - the death of Radovid left Vinogre in disarray, and without Radovid's restraints, and with the garrison there suffering heavy casualties in the Battle of Viren, the Church of the Eternal Flame has begun to attack us openly. The two of them accepted Tamara's invitation to help out in Vinogre. ”

Edward glanced at Geralt, who was calm, smiled and nodded, and lowered his head again to work on his papers.

"Aren't you worried about the situation in the North?" Geralt said, "Now that Radovid is dead, and the Northern Kingdoms and Redania are in turmoil, you don't worry about the Knights of Vinogre?"

"You're drinking here so leisurely, not worrying about your two lovers, so I assume the situation there is under control. Edward quickly processed the papers, stamping the reports with the faint light of light on them, without looking up.

"Well, you're right. Geralt poured all the red wine from the goblet into his mouth and said, "Now that you know, what are you looking for me for?"

"Geralt, I want to ask you, if it were me, what would you think of the current situation?" Edward put down his report and looked up at the Demon Hunter seriously.

"If I were you?" Geralt said with a smile on his usual serious face, "If I had a force as strong as yours, I would have a good relationship with Enshir directly, and then make the Demon Hunter Knights a part of Nilfgaard." ”

"Without Radovid, it is impossible for the northern kingdoms to hold back the army of Enghir, and sooner or later this continent will become the territory of Nilfgaard. If the Demon Hunter Knight wants to survive, her leader must become the upper echelon of Nilfgaard, or else she will become the second Eternal Church. ”

"And now, because of your presence, Enhil still dares to take action against the Knights, but this situation cannot continue, once you leave, this organization that I feel very good about will immediately disappear in the anger of the Emperor. ”

"Will you leave?" Geralt said as he stared at Edward, "Master of the Demon Hunter Order, Edward Lee?"

Edward and Geralt looked at each other for a long time, and it was not until Triss left in amusement that Edward laughed and said, "It seems that Mr. White Wolf's observation skills are as sharp as ever. You just said that the Knights of the Demon Hunters made you feel very good, so why didn't you join it?"

"I can't stand this constraint. Geralt smiled wryly, "I'm a demon hunter, and although I would love to be a demon hunter, the rules of a demon hunter really make me unable to breathe. ”

"It's a must, Geralt. Edward stood up and said, "As you might expect, I'll be leaving soon. But before I leave, I must make sure that the Demon Hunter Knights are healthy and thriving, and you are my favorite leader. ”

Geralt had a look on his face.

It stands to reason that a character like Edward is unlikely to be his Geralt's friend. The White Wolf pondered for a long time, pondering all the episodes from his encounter with Edward, and was surprised to find that the other party had been instilling in him the theory of demon hunters.

The demon hunter with a keen sense quickly deduced Edward's purpose - the mysterious powerhouse who suddenly appeared was looking for a inheritor in this world who could inherit his ideas.

After confirming Edward's purpose today, Geralt was faced with a difficult choice: continue to live as free and hard as a wanderer, or change himself to accept the legacy and the organization?
