Because of Queen Carranse's request, Wayne and the others did not leave the Kingdom of Sintra immediately after rescuing Princess Pavita.

After receiving the master's order, Xia did not immediately go to contact Queen Caranther.

Things that are too easy to get are always not cherished, and the little slave girl thinks that this million gold coins cannot be given directly.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.

In this way, not only will it not be taken seriously by others, but it will also appear to have other plans, which will make others suspicious.

The Wayne Chamber of Commerce has not done enough business in these two countries, and this is a good opportunity to use this huge bounty as a bargaining chip to make a deal with Queen Caranthor and form a stronger Chamber of Commerce in Sintra and Skellig.

If you can get the support of the royal family, the subsequent development will be smoother.

Of course, this is just Xiana's own thoughts, and after listening to this, Wayne neither agreed nor objected, but just let her watch it herself, and Wayne will not interfere too much in the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce.

The power of money is indeed a double-edged sword, it can not only get the help of others, but also easily get the coveting of others, and if it is used well, it can easily do many troublesome things.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the powerful goddess of wealth is able to navigate many worlds unimpeded.

Over the next few days, Wayne met the little girl Ciri again and brought a large bag of sweets and snacks that he had made himself.

With his craft and systematic skill bonuses, this is definitely the best candy and snack in the world, capable of capturing the taste of any little one.

However, little Ciri's happiness only lasted for a short time, and she sincerely thanked Wayne, and then carefully hid the candy and snacks, saying that she wanted to keep them for her mother, Princess Paveta.

The little girl was very sensible, and in the conversation with her, Wayne knew that several days had passed, and Princess Pavita had not woken up, and for some reason, the child in her womb had not been secretly beaten, but had been retained and continued to grow.

Little Ciri cares about her mother very much, she has no father since she was a child, and her grandmother, Queen Caranther, is a rather strict elder, and only her gentle mother is her most reassuring arm, the closest person to her.

Although she was very young and a little girl who didn't understand anything, she was also vaguely aware of what misfortune had happened to her mother, so she was quite depressed.

However, Wayne can't do much about it, although if Princess Pavita is sent to the Witcher Order, he may get a better healing effect under the treatment and research of many Warlocks of the Order.

But with Queen Caranse's character, she probably wouldn't give her daughter to the witchers.

Another day, just as Wayne was about to make a decision, the little slave girl Sianna told Wayne an interesting news, an unexpected, but plausible one.

In the space of a week since the beginning of the war, Earl Karn of the Kingdom of Codwin has been defeated by King Demavi of Aden, who had been preparing for several years, and has captured the city that Earl Karn has been ruling all along.

The young count did not escape the fate of being captured, and was secretly imprisoned, along with some of the nobles who supported him.

Now that the aristocratic forces in the south of the Kingdom of Kodwin have been defeated, and part of the territory has been occupied by Aden, a large number of Adian people are pouring into Kodwin.

Although it will take a long time to calm down the war and pacify other local nobles, if there are no other external forces to interfere, then the southern part of the Kingdom of Kodwin may really fall into the hands of Dermavi.

After hearing the news, Wayne knew that Francesca probably didn't intervene in this matter, otherwise, De Marvi would not have been able to defeat Count Karn so smoothly.

With a powerful warlock involved, even if Demavi's army were stronger, he wouldn't be able to capture a city in just one week.

This has just happened, and it is estimated that most of the kings of the north have not received this news, and the speed of transmitting a message in the Middle Ages is quite slow, unless a special information channel is established, or a warlock is involved, otherwise, if you want this news to spread throughout the north, it may take about half a year.

However, this matter did not affect the witcher, and Wayne stopped paying attention after hearing about it.

For the current Demon Hunter Order, resources, talents, and security are not a problem, most of the shackles have disappeared, and the most important thing is just time.

When the next generation of witchers begins to grow and the Order's warlocks continue to improve their research, the strength of the Witcher Order will grow rapidly, and it will soon be able to regain or even surpass the glory of the past Order.

This time, Wayne came to Sintra, in addition to preparing to stop by the Erethusa Academy, there is also an important mission.

That is, with the help of the channel of King East, go to the Skellig Islands, meet the Bear School witchers who have been operating within the islands, and see if there is a chance to include the witchers of this school into the Order, at least to recover the materials they took from the Order in the past.

Of course, this matter is not urgent, and it does not matter if the first exchange does not achieve the goal.

When the Wayne Chamber of Commerce expands to the Skellig Islands and develops in the channel, there will be many opportunities to deal with the witchers of the Bear School.

Another day passed.

That afternoon, Wayne was in the city playing an interesting duel with other Gwent poker masters, when he suddenly received an invitation from Queen Caranthor to enter the palace alone and attend a dinner party.

Wayne did not refuse such an invitation, although he waited for several days and felt a little impatient in his heart, but he also had some understanding of a mother and a member of the royal family, and he didn't mind too much.

The dinner was not in the richly decorated council hall, but in the private living room of the palace, attended only by Queen Carranse, King East, and Grand Druid Mossake.

Their expressions were quite dull, their eyebrows and eyes were worried, and they didn't have those hypocritical politeness when they spoke, and after drinking a few glasses of red wine, they quickly got to the point.

Queen Carransor grunted and threw up her head to drink a glass of red wine, and after exhaling a mouthful of turbidity, she said in a somewhat sullen voice:

"After Pavita's child is born, both men and women, I want to hand him over to your Demon Hunter Order."

"From now on, this child has nothing to do with our King of Sintra, he will not have the royal inheritance, and the identity of an illegitimate child will not be recognized."

"For this, we in the royal family of Sintra owe you a favor to help you in your time of need for the Demon Hunter Order."

"What do you think of the conditions, Mr. Wayne?"

Wayne was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect the other party to put forward such a condition, and after thinking briefly for a few seconds in his head, he couldn't help but ask:

"Your Majesty, since you are so reluctant to have this child, why don't you kill him and give birth to him?"

Queen Calanse's expression was a little ugly when she heard this, and before she could reply, the Grand Druid Mossack touched her beard and explained:

"That's right, Wayne."

"After my research with another veteran warlock, the evil warlock Vigo Fortez used an evil bloodline deprivation ritual that has been handed down from ancient times."

"The child in Paveta's womb is not only constantly absorbing the nutrients in his mother's body, but even Paveta's ancient bloodline is being ruthlessly deprived by this fetus."

"And this child is closely connected to Pavita's life, if he is defeated, Paveta will not be able to continue to live, and will die with that child."

"So we have no choice but to let her give birth to this child in order to save Pavita's life."

"And since then, although Pavita's body will become weak, she has also lost the blood of the ancients, and she will no longer be the target of other evil people, and she will be able to continue to live as the successor of Sintra."

"We will also seal her memories of this period and make her forget this tragic encounter."

"Although this matter is very regrettable, after we discussed it, we think that this way is the most appropriate way to deal with it, if you are not willing to accept this child."

"He'd be sent somewhere more secluded, and if it weren't for my knowledge of the Bear School witchers in the Skellig Islands, right down to their physical deficiencies, maybe this kid would have been sent there."

Wayne raised an eyebrow when he heard this, but he didn't speak immediately, but fell into thought.

During this feast, he noticed that Queen Caranthor's attitude towards him had changed, and that she had become more respectful of him, no longer as an insignificant witcher, as she had done in the past.

This may be because the Wayne Chamber of Commerce, represented by Sianna, has already been in contact with this powerful queen, so that the royal family of Sintra knows about Wayne's power.

And today's choice should also have this consideration.

So, for this child who unexpectedly appeared in this world, should the Witcher Order accept him?
