Chapter 385: Preparing for War

After returning to Willen Fortress after negotiating with the Witches' Hall, Edward taught Triss the Way of Light. Also being taught were Yennefaringira and Filippa, who had voted in favor of the Witches' Congregation, and as for Kayla, she could only look with envy at Triss, who was the first to receive the favor of the Light.

Triss's physique is a bit peculiar, although she is a famous witch and is also known as the "Fourteenth Man of the Hill", but her body is sensitive to magic, she cannot use magic to heal herself, and she cannot use alchemical potions with magical power on herself. However, she was also proficient in healing spells and alchemy, so this restriction had been bothering her for a long time.

The reason why she longed for the power of the Light was to make up for her allergy to magic. The power of the Light comes from faith, and although it is also a type of mana element, after trying, Triss is pleased to find that the Light does not reject her.

After that, the witches tried it one by one. Filipa failed as Edward had expected, but the witch who longed to regain her light refused to give up and tried again and again, only to be rejected by the Light.

Frigila Vigo succeeded, and although her Light was far less powerful than Triss, she did gain the Light's approval. This gave Triss, who had always looked at her unpleasantly, the capital to laugh at her, and the red-haired witch kept holding up the orb of holy light in her hand to compare it to Fringira, as a way to show that her own character was superior to the other party.

"You're so naΓ―ve. Frigila looked indifferent on the surface, but the slight fluttering of her eyebrows betrayed her mood at this time. Triss, of course, saw this too, and laughed happily.

The conflict between Fringira and Triss still comes from Geralt. While on a mission at the assembly, Friengira falls in love with Geralt and uses her magic to charm the white wolf. To Triss's rage, the witch also publicly described her and Geralt's winter-long love affair at the assembly hall.

"Won't you try it?" Geralt leaned against the pillar of the hall and looked at the pensive Yennefer, "I think you'll love this power, it's an absolutely pure, warm, and powerful power, and it can also warn you from the temptation of evil and prevent your heart from moving closer to the dark side. ”

"Edward, I'd like to ask. Yennefer ignored Geralt, who seemed to be still angry with Geralt, and turned to Edward, "Can your light cure us of our inability to conceive children?"

"I don't know. Edward paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and said, "Logically yes, but the problem is that I have lived with my wives for several years, and neither of them has conceived children. ”

Edward once asked the main god Charlie about this question, and the other party's answer was: The stronger the man, the less likely it is for a woman to conceive a child. The same goes for women. This situation is not only manifested in mortals, but even those who are as strong as the main god themselves cannot completely solve this problem.

"Then I'll forget it. Yennefer sighed in disappointment. All the while, she was looking for a solution to this problem, but nothing worked at all. After a long time, Ye Naifa seems to have given up the search and raised Lane as if he were his own daughter.

"I'd advise you to give it a try, Yennefer. Edward seemed to be bothered by the problem, but he suggested anyway, "If the Light can solve this problem, then you need to prepare dramatically as well. There are many facts that prove that as you get older and stronger, the more you get to the back, the less likely it is to have your own children. ”

"I think so too. Furringira said suddenly, "I advise you to try it, or you will regret it if someone gets the first shot." ”

As she said this, she glanced at Triss.

Ye Naifa shook his head irritably, but finally took a deep breath, calmed his mind, sat down in his chair, and began to meditate with the elementary Origin Technique.

In a few moments, a holy light no less than Triss poured out of her body, rendering her a silver glow.

Seeing this, Geralt laughed, because he found that the three women he liked had all received the favor of the Holy Light, which showed the sharpness of his vision. As for Kayla, who has never been able to obtain the power of the Holy Light, the white wolf asked himself if he had already "broken up" with her after he learned that he was being used.

"Well, according to our agreement, Triss, Yennefa, and Lady Fringira will be members of my Knights of the Demon Hunters. Edward clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention, and said, "Lady Felipba, you don't have to try again now, only when you say goodbye to those gray deeds once and for all, will you be able to obtain the Holy Light." ”

"I'm going to make it!" Filipa gritted her teeth, and when she saw that Edward was aware of the send-off, she left the command room with Kayla, who was lost in thought.

Later, after Edward himself taught the three witches some of the techniques of using the Light, he also left the command room, leaving Geralt alone and leaving him alone to deal with his complicated relationship between men and women.

Edward was pleased with the visit to the Witches' Lodge, as the main members of the Witcher Knights were Paladins and Holy Rangers, and the addition of the three Witches would fill the vacancies of the Priest and the Holy Mage, which would have a crucial impact on the upcoming Great War.

The next day, the Willen Fortress was brought into full combat readiness. Filipa of the Witches' Lodge was unhappy with Edward's approach, but kept his agreement. The five witches work together to erect a massive magical barrier for the Willen Fortress to prevent the Wild Hunt's portal from appearing in the fortress.

The paladins were basically given their own horses with the support of Nilfgaard and all parties, and the dwarven blacksmiths created heavy vests for these horses, and together with the paladins who were already wearing plate armor, this was a strong attack force that was definitely no less than that of the hunting soldiers.

Holy Ranger was placed on the towers and walls of the fortress, and some were distributed in the form of scouts on the main roads on the north bank of the river - the fortress of Willen was located on the north bank of the river, the north gate faced a flat plain, and the south gate was near the port with a long rocky bridge that stretched to the south bank of the river. If they were to defend the south gate, Edward would be happy to let them know what was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In addition, other organizations and helpers also offered to help as much as they could, but they had to deal with an army of wild hunters, and these individuals and relatively weak groups were only able to help, except for the five hundred troops that Nilfgaard had sent to the south bank of the Willen Fortress.
