Chapter Seventy-Two: Die Cleaner
Josh's teasing made Ciri roll her eyes helplessly, but Ciri didn't take it to heart.
I have to say that the communication between the two women is indeed much stronger than Josh's many truths, and combined with some realities, Tamara has also understood more profoundly.
There is no doubt about the fact that the Baron is a good man, but there is no doubt that he was a good leader.
One of the things Josh remembers more deeply is that when he was playing a game, he was looking for someone to play cards in a hotel and accidentally heard something.
This incident is probably when the baron's men were managing the residents of the neighborhood, because they fell in love with a woman, and they raped her.
This incident was seen by the local residents, who only took pity on what happened to the woman, but no one dared to say anything.
In this era, the saddest thing is the indifference between people, which has reached an incredible level.
But what people didn't expect was that the baron once came here to visit and accidentally learned about it.
At that time, the defiled woman was already dead, but the baron did not let this stop, and he chose to hang all the soldiers who committed the crime that day.
Whether it is said that he buys people's hearts or that he genuinely cares about the common people, his approach has indeed had an incredible effect.
As he said, although he is also a butcher on the battlefield, he still has a certain amount of compassion for these poor civilians.
Just look at the inhabitants of the periphery of his castle, the war outside has reached a terrible level, but the inhabitants there are living very well.
How could they have lived so comfortably if it weren't for the baron's protection?
Josh remembers that in the end, whether the Baron died or the Baron chose to take his mad wife Anna to heal, the territory he controlled was in shambles.
The agent he chose wasn't a good one, and that guy Josh should have been a robber or something if he remembered correctly.
But the baron had no choice, and he had to entrust the Raven Castle to the guy for the sake of his love.
Although his approach is very irresponsible, in fact, there are really few men who can choose love between power and love, but the baron made such a choice.
Such a guy is really loved and hated.
This very vicious-looking, very unpleasant-looking fat man had a very deep impact on Josh, and thanks to the Polish stupid donkey for giving Josh an unforgettable experience, that's why Josh helped this guy so much.
Josh was even wondering if he would simply set up a mercenary group stronghold in Weilun in the future.
Not only is this the war zone of the Three Kingdoms, but the countless casualties have given evil creatures such as strange ghosts room to grow, but also to allow this baron to have better room for development.
"This ..... How is this possible, he ..... "After listening to Ciri's words, Tamara's spirit seemed to be a little broken.
It was as terrible as subverting her perceptions, and it was hard to imagine that her mother had ever done something like that!
She was very young and didn't know exactly what had happened to make her father start beating her mother after drinking, but now it seems that there was a reason for all of this.
Hitting a woman is not a good thing, never has been. But after a woman cheats, she still looks like she is not wrong, and the fault is all yours, and it seems that everything has become different.
And it seems that his mother is also in front of outsiders, and she has never given her father any face.
Tamara slowly recalled, very strange, she didn't know why she trusted this girl with long silver hair so much, but she seemed to tell her in her heart that what this girl with long silver hair said was the truth!
"You need to understand what is right and wrong." Josh glanced at Tamara, who looked a little confused, and whispered, as for the witch hunters behind him who had been screaming madly by the Holy Fire, Josh didn't even bother to look at them.
"Your mother did something sorry for your father, that's a fact. It is also true that your father's revenge was too drastic, and your mother was greatly stimulated. It is also true that your father beat your mother when he was drunk. But think about how your father later treated your mother? If he didn't love her, I'm afraid he would have killed your mother a long time ago, how could he keep trying to find a way to get everything back? β
"But he beat my mother, all the time hard! Even made her miscarry! β
"Your mother's miscarriage is not your father's problem, you will find out this later. And he did beat your mother drunk, but didn't he repent? Do you know what he says to me most often? He said, "I know I'm not a good father, but.... It may be too late to make amends. Have you given him a chance to make amends? β
"I ....."
Tamara bit her lip, she didn't know what to say now.
She never seemed to know the cruel and perpetually alcoholic father in her eyes, and she found that she was indeed very far away from her father, and that she had never lived the life of a 'father' made up by her mother.
Glancing back at the baron with tears in his eyes, the fat man was no longer the cunning, murderous bloody baron, but her father, Philip Strenger.
Tamara saw in his eyes all repentance, and a radiance she had never seen beforeβwhat it seemed, fatherly love?
"Don't expect me to go back!" After a long time, Tamara said through gritted teeth.
And with her words, the baron's eyes also became dim, and even his fat body trembled a little, but at this moment Tamara continued to speak, and suddenly the baron's eyes brightened again.
"I'll take a walk around Willon and see what you've done. I'm going to go where you used to live - I remember it, and I'm going to get to know what happened! β
"Of course! Of course! As long as you stay in Weilun, I will listen to you! As long as you want to come back, Raven Castle will open the door for you at any time! Also, it's not safe for you to be out there alone, I'll let my guards protect you! β
"No, when I understand everything, I will make a decision whether to go back to Raven Castle or leave this place that makes me sad. I don't want you to influence my judgment, and I'm not without self-preservation! β
"I.... Well, I promise you Tamara. When you come back, I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you and Anna, trust me! β
This is probably a perfect ending, right?
Josh looked at the father and daughter in front of him and touched his chin, although he hadn't saved the other woman yet, but at least it was a good result for now.
"Anyway, I don't think I've lost everything Philip has lost because I didn't save that mad woman, and I ran to find a dead tree and cut myself off, right?"
When Josh first played, the ending he experienced was absolutely devastating.
The old witch was smarter than all of them, and if anyone lifted the spell Anna would die, an unexpected turn that shocked the baron.
And the bad news doesn't stop there, as Tamara, who also came to the swamp to save his mother, told the Baron that she didn't want to be involved with him anymore.
The baron felt that he had nothing, so he turned and walked back to the crow's nest alone.
Then the news will be heard in a few days. The love of the baron's life has left him, and Philippe Strenger, who once ruled all of Willen with fear, hanged himself.
Now? Let's not talk about whether the witch's magic effect can be effective, even if Josh is not good at these curses and other magic at all, he can't stand this guy's magic level is too high.
This kind of completely crushing posture, no matter what kind of magic you have, I can handle it for you.
As for carelessness..... Forget it, Mao was careless, Josh simply deliberately let Anna die, and Josh didn't think the baron would choose to commit suicide.
Because he is no longer alone now, at least his daughter will choose to stay with Veron, and most likely return to him, so what reason would he have to die?
"Do you want to just let that woman die?"
Josh thought to himself, but just then a monster roar came from the swamp around him.
Josh frowned, and looked towards the place where the sound came from, a huge monster with a deer's head and a group of water ghosts surrounded the place from all sides, and charged at them.
"I almost forgot about these guys."
Josh shrugged his shoulders, he had thought too deeply about the problem just now, and because the basic plot of his turmoil had changed, Josh ignored these things all at once.
But it doesn't matter, this group of miscellaneous fish is just Josh has no idea of embarrassment at all.
And because he had released the 'Holy Fire' thing before, he didn't even bother to use the new magic.
The witch hunters weren't dead yet, and it was because Josh was in control of his magic and could give the guys a good feel for being scorched by the flames.
But now, they've been wailing for almost five minutes, and their voices are so hoarse that they don't come out of them anymore.
Josh isn't a pervert either, and it's enough for him to be tortured for this part, so they also showed themselves a 'exciting' scene when they played the game, didn't they?
When Rough Josh takes Geralt into control of Novigre, he sees the Eternal Flame judging and purging the 'heresy' as soon as he enters.
And this is still a plot killing, Josh has no way to control it at all, he can only watch them burn that pair of men and women to charcoal, after learning about this church from other places, you can imagine how much Josh hates them.
Directly increasing the magic power, in an instant, those witch hunters were left with no dust left, and at the same time, Josh directly controlled those holy flames to fly towards these monsters rushing around.
"Let's solve it all at once, save you trouble."
