Chapter Fifty-Eight: Yennepha
"You damn woman! Do you know? The butchers dragged my sister into the warehouse...... Damn it! Then he hanged them alive and dragged her out of the convent like dogs, saying that Nilfgaard forbade superstition and that they were not afraid of the wrath of the gods! What about you? Are you afraid? ”
The woman with a sad look and a group of men dressed in soldier clothes punched the hotel hostess, who was beaten and hid behind the bar, not daring to provoke the drunkards with words.
And the boss's behavior also made them even more proud, although the boss lady had made it clear that the only way to hang the Phogaard flag was to avoid trouble, but these guys who had drunk some wine and had suffered a tragic thing would not care about this.
As for how many people actually encountered those sad things, they don't know, but one thing is certain, and that is that there are many people who may be planning to fish in troubled waters here.
In such a chaotic country, money does have a constant thing.
With enough money, they can live comfortably.
No matter how chaotic it is outside, they can pretend to be a group of 'good citizens', and then use the money to buy a certificate that symbolizes the 'good people' and live a stable life.
"A group of patriots mourning the loss of Temoria." Viselmir glanced at it and withdrew his gaze, then looked at Geralt, who was about to step forward to dissuade him, and said, "I advise you not to cause trouble, we are not good at dealing with this kind of political incident. ”
"Political events?"
Josh took the wine glass and said nonchalantly: "The so-called politics is just an exchange of interests, so trivial things can be related to politics, then it can only be said that politics is too worthless." Or are you going to establish absolute 'political correctness' to avoid trouble? ”
"Forehead ....."
Viselmir was choked by Josh's words, and then he realized that this guy in front of him was a prince, although he didn't know what his specific life was like, but how could he not understand politics as a prince?
Maybe this man is still a master of politics.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm not a politician." Josh glanced at Viselmir to know what this guy was thinking, Josh is indeed not a master of playing politics, but he still knows very well what the essence of politics is.
Thanks to the education of the high-tech class, he knows what the superstructure field is, and Josh is in the food chain at this stage.
However, one thing is different, in the Muya continent where Josh was reborn, politics has become played by people with little strength.
A member of a top family like him just needs to understand this and be able to see through it.
Because then you won't be played with as fools by your own politically savvy guys, as for their own involvement?
I'm sorry, but if I go down with a sword or a magic call, you'll be gone, so why are you talking to me about this?
"Okay, okay, so what are you going to do?" Vismere spread his hands helplessly.
"Of course it's a favor, it's nice to be here for the past two days, isn't it?" Josh smiled slightly, and Geralt stood up directly.
But unfortunately, Geralt didn't have time to do anything before something happened in the whole hotel.
Countless pale green blade-like things suddenly appeared, and then slashed directly at those thugs!
There was no resistance, no anomaly, and those who were scratched by the green 'blades' didn't seem to feel anything at all.
But just as they tried to move on to the poor proprietress when some parts of their bodies suddenly separated!
This is caused by too much force! Geralt could see the reason at a glance, and the reason for all this was naturally those green 'blades' from before!
This situation made Geralt feel chills all over his body, completely silent, completely without any warning, these people were all dismembered!
"There are really miserable people, and I didn't do anything to them. As for the guy who wants to fish in troubled waters, plans to kill this proprietress and then make a fortune from this hotel, that's how it ends. I don't like to go after civilians, but I never hold back on thugs. ”
Josh drank calmly, as if none of this had anything to do with him. But the green 'blade' magic silenced the whole bar, and as for the woman who had drunk too much and was full of sorrow, no one cared about her now.
"It's .... Your magic? Geralt sat down slowly, the terrible magic that terrified him a little.
"Well, one of the basic magics, the Wind Blade." Josh nodded, "I can teach you if you want to, but I can't guarantee that you can learn it, because it requires a talent for wind elemental magic." ”
"Well, another basic magic." Geralt shook his head, "Your basic magic is really terrifying, but forget it, the people of Nilfgaard are not going to leave this group of rebels alone, it is better for these guys to die here than outside, because it will be even more miserable than now." ”
"Who knows." Josh shrugged his shoulders and stood up, dropping a gold coin on the table and saying, "I guess it's time for us to go too, right?" ”
"Of course. The trouble is out of the way, let's go, I don't want to wait for the people of Nilfgaard to be interrogated. ”
Geralt also stood up, and the tavern was silent, and the people in the bar that distressed Geralt looked at him with horror, as if Geralt had just made a move.
However, Geralt didn't explain anything, and this kind of thing couldn't be explained at all.
"Save your crow's mouth, and they can try, the military is not counted among ordinary civilians."
Josh smiled, completely unconcerned about what Geralt said.
And Josh knew that Geralt's gain would definitely come true, because at this time, Josh had already noticed that a large number of people were coming here, and now they were all parked at the door.
As if to verify that Josh's Geralt was a crow's mouth, when they opened the door to the hotel, they saw a large group of men waiting outside.
The men and horses were dressed in similar clothes to the soldiers in the previous barracks, they were all soldiers of Phogaard.
"Hell, I smell cloves and gooseberries!" Geralt looked at the group of centaurs, and his expression seemed to be a little happy.
Sure enough, soon a woman with long black hair walked out from behind the Nilfgaard soldiers, looking at Geralt with a complicated expression.
She was dressed in a black leather jacket and leather pants, with a simple necklace tied around a black ribbon around her neck, and a black fur shawl draped over her shoulders.
This time not only Geralt was a little happy, but even Ciri looked a little excited.
This woman was none other than Yennefer, Geralt's lover..... One of them, who is also Ciri's teacher and adoptive mother, and Ciri's relationship with her is also one of the deepest.
"You're still smart, Geralt." Yennefer walked up to Geralt and smiled slightly, and soon she turned to look at Josh and Ciri, "Who are these two?" It's rare to see you with other people. ”
"Ye Naifa, it's been a long time, but I'm looking for you everywhere." Geralt whispered, but he didn't forget to introduce Josh and them: "These two are Josh and Daenerys, from ..... Coming from afar, they are also magicians. ”
"A magician?"
Yennefer raised an eyebrow, glanced at Ciri and then at Josh.
To be honest, these two people gave her very strange feelings, and the girl made her feel like her relatives.
And the man, as if it didn't exist, was ethereal.
Shaking her head, Ye Nefer felt that now was not the time to think about this at all, and she looked at Geralt again: "Compared to the reason why I am looking for you, you must not be looking for me. Also, now is not the time to catch up, come with me to Vigema to meet His Majesty the Emperor in Nilfgaard. ”
"What are you doing there? I think we're ......"
"Don't say more now, you'll know where you go!"
Yennefer didn't give Geralt time to ask questions at all, and after urging Geralt to hurry up and get on the horse, he looked at Josh and Ciri with doubtful eyes.
At this moment, a black figure suddenly flew in the sky, and this figure directly made the soldiers of Foggaard look a little frightened.
"Don't be afraid, it's Lord Josh's mount, a royal griffin, and it won't hurt you!" Seeing this situation, Geralt knew he had to explain to avoid some trouble.
Waiting for Josh to explain, maybe it would be more realistic for this guy to throw a few spells directly to the soldiers who wanted to attack the griffin.
"A griffon?" Ye Naifa frowned: "It's the one that attacked humans in Baiguoyuan Village recently?" Is it his mount? ”
"It's the same one, but the chronological order needs to be changed." Geralt nodded, "Before becoming Lord Josh's mount, he was indeed the griffin that attacked the humans because his mate was killed by the humans. However, after I took over the hunt for it, I was directly captured by Lord Josh and became his mount. ”
"A griffin that became a human mount?" Yennefer took a deep look at Josh, and she now felt that this young man who called himself a magician was getting more and more incomprehensible.
"However, if it weren't for this incident happening right in front of my eyes, I wouldn't have dared to imagine it."
"I trust you, Geralt, but it's time for us to go." Yennefer shook his head, watched Josh take the silver-haired girl and sat on the griffin, and said in a deep voice, "There are two more, I hope you can take care of this griffin, otherwise these soldiers may attack you." ”
"Huh." Josh knew it was a well-intentioned reminder, but this guy's personality wasn't going to worry about that.
"You let them try, and I'm sure you'll be distressed about how you're going to bury these guys then." 8)
