Chapter 299: Princess Pavetta is Missing

~7 min read 1,334 words

Hearing Julia's question, Geralt just yawned somewhat boredly and didn't give an answer immediately.

A few days ago, in the temple outside Kaer Morhen, when several goddesses were performing daily exorcism on him, in order to improve the skill level of Divine Blessing, he was really too overworked. He didn't leave the temple for three consecutive days, which made his skills improve by a small margin.

And the reason for being so thirsty was mainly because during this period, Triss, as the chief sorceress of the Order, was not in Kaer Morhen.

After years of hard work and research, the mutation formula for Witchers seemed to have made a breakthrough. The sorceress needed to find some cutting-edge experimental equipment and the help of some magic masters.

She took a lot of information and teleported to Aretuza Academy overnight, where she had been staying for half a month.

The departure of the sorceress lover caused Geralt to feel a bit stifled.

And the days of recuperating were too boring. Because he couldn't use the chaos mana in his body, during these three years, besides dealing with the various affairs of the Order every day, what he did most was to exercise his various skills and learn the theoretical knowledge of various magic.

According to Ranni's guidance, this dark mana in his body was extremely special. After three years of sealing and suppression, it had gradually become tame. Due to long-term contact with the chaos mana in his body, it had begun to show signs of slow fusion.

It only needed to wait for a period of time, until he could completely suppress the power left by Baal, then he wouldn't need to perform frequent purification and sealing, and could go to other worlds to find a way to fuse this power.

Geralt was quite happy about this. Although during the three years of recuperating, his skills regarding mana had no improvement.

But his physical fitness, under the nourishment of hellish power, had gradually exceeded the range of humans. Compared with three years ago, it had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Even his body structure had already transcended the range of Witchers. Under the nourishment of hellish mana, he might have transcended the obstacles of genes and began to transform toward the direction of magical creatures.

And in order to adapt to his new body, Geralt had never given up his pursuit of martial arts in his spare time.

Whether it was swordsmanship or archery, they had all improved by several levels. However, because of the lack of ability points, he hadn't opened new skill specialties for himself.

The long plain life made Geralt even look forward to some unexpected situations, bringing him a little excitement.

They had predicted the problem of Aedirn attacking Kaedwen several years ago. As two countries that often had wars due to territorial disputes, it was not strange at all to have such a situation.

That guy Demavend had already shown various signs a few years ago, and now he was just prepared.

And for Geralt, whether it was the Kingdom of Aedirn or the Kingdom of Kaedwen, these two countries were countries that were quite exclusive to non-human races.

It was just dogs biting dogs when they fought. No matter the result, it made no difference to him.

Now, after several years of development, the Witcher Order already had a considerable scale. Coupled with the magic barrier in the Blue Mountains, the disturbances in the outside world were insignificant to them.

Geralt considered for a few seconds, then waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about them. Our Chamber of Commerce has already taken over the supply of materials for many cities. War is a matter for the nobles themselves. Let them solve it themselves. We can appropriately raise the price again, restrict the inflow of certain materials, and strive for more benefits for our Chamber of Commerce."

"However, those should be things that Syanna should consider."

"You just need to protect our Chamber of Commerce strongholds and fulfill your duties as guards. If any noble dares to have any bad intentions, don't give them face, just beat them until they are afraid."

"This war is a good opportunity to make our power more deeply involved in this country."

Seeing Julia seem a bit disappointed, Geralt smiled and said:

"I know what you are thinking, but this matter cannot be rushed."

"The gun hits the bird that sticks its head out. The earlier people jump out, the earlier they die. Only those who laugh to the end can win the final victory." "Haven't I asked you to take in those orphans since a few years ago?"

"After the war begins, the number of orphans will definitely become more."

"By then, I will take out another sum of money and let you build a new mercenary academy in Kaedwen, specifically used to cultivate our own mercenaries."

"As for the war, hehe, didn't I ask you to plant more intelligence personnel in the south?"

"You should know very well that the fighting between Kaedwen and Aedirn can only be considered a small fight. Only after that lion in the south is ready will the real war that sweeps across the entire North begin."

Julia was a bit disappointed. Counting the members of the Cat Claw Mercenary Group, the warriors she controlled already exceeded 20,000, which far exceeded the world's largest mercenary group at present.

Just from the number of people, it was the well-deserved number one mercenary group in the North, and even more than the total military strength of many small Northern countries.

This, of course, was due to the bottomless financial resources and support of Boss Geralt, and it was also the root cause of Julia's hard work and dedication.

Unfortunately, as guards of the Chamber of Commerce, these people were all used to deal with some mountain bandits and hooligans, or some lone monsters, and were only used as bodyguards and guards, never having conducted a large-scale war.

This made Julia feel a sense of regret that she held a peerless weapon but couldn't participate in actual combat.

As a female officer born in a military academy, little beauty cat undoubtedly also had the dream of becoming a general, and Boss Geralt's support was the closest she had ever been to her dream.

"Okay, boss, I will pay more attention to those war orphans."

"Now, because the wilderness of the Kingdom of Kaedwen is too dangerous, almost all the trade routes have been controlled by our Geralt Chamber of Commerce."

"Even if Demavend has the ability to defeat Count Kaen, he doesn't have so many soldiers to clean up the monsters and Corrupted humans in the wilderness."

"By then, the whole country will still be decided by us, and they won't be able to change the status quo."

Seeing the little beauty cat still analyzing the current situation for him, Geralt waved his hand helplessly and said: "Alright, alright, I know you have worked very hard these years and have achieved considerable results."

"But now we still have to wait patiently and don't do extra things."

Since his boss had made up his mind, although Julia was a bit disappointed, she still sat back in her seat very obediently.

At the same time, she also looked at her companion who had cooperated for several years, the agent of the Geralt Chamber of Commerce who was now famous in the North, Syanna.

However, before Syanna, who was once a young girl and now had grown into a beautiful and dignified noblewoman, could speak.

The White Wolf Geralt, wearing casual clothes, suddenly pushed the door and walked in.

He first glanced at the subordinates of Geralt sitting at the council table, then hesitated for a moment, and then walked quickly to Geralt's side and whispered: "Geralt, Yennefer just received news from Cintra."

"Princess Pavetta seems to have gone missing."

"Queen Calanthe wants to seek our help."
