Chapter 48: Yennefer's Choice
Wigofertz sat down.
His eyes were momentarily out of focus, and he glanced at the furnishings in the room with a little dazedness.
He had expected a similar situation, but in his speculation, it was the worst possible scenario, and when this happened at this moment, even if he had been prepared, Wigofortez would not be able to hide his gaffe.
"Our Magical ......"
"It doesn't make sense!" Felipa's voice was harsh.
"The Forbidden Ring can prevent us from unleashing magic, but it can be used to unleash power...... Element...... Spirit...... The origin of energy...... Demon Source ......"
Felipa was somewhat incoherent.
"Now do you understand why I killed that Roger at all costs?"
Wigofertz's voice came.
"Hehe, the great warlock created the witcher, but looking at the current situation, I even suspect that this Roger has been sealed for a long time, and he didn't get out of trouble until not long ago."
"If he doesn't die, we won't have a future."
Wigofertz clenched his fists and stood up from his seat.
"Let's do the second plan, move the troops, and I'll have Leo Bonnet attack before dawn, and then the Kodwin soldiers you brought with you will join them."
"There is no such link in the plan, as you said, these soldiers are only used to defend and guard the checkpoints, and the general who commands the soldiers only obeys the king's orders, and I can't give orders to him!"
"You have a way."
Wigofertz sneered.
"That power seems to only envelop Kyle Mohan, so your magic can still work here."
"Let your sorceress do it."
An imperceptible hint of sarcasm flashed in Wigofertez's eyes, "They are so clever that they always have a way of convincing those men. ”
"What do you mean?!" Filippa was furious.
It is true that a sorceress can be considered a profligate wreck, and her behavior is less disciplined, but in the mouth of Wigofertz, it seems to be no different from a slut.
"This is treason!"
Felipa roared!
"It's the first time I've heard that sorceresses have their own country." Wigofortez sneered and walked out without looking back.
"I'll attack at daybreak, and I hope the soldiers are there, because the more people there are, the less likely we are to make a mistake."
"It's not just about our future, it's about life and death now."
"That Roger is in the castle right now, and if he survives, none of us will be able to escape the assassination of that guy."
Wigoferez lifted the curtain and disappeared into the darkness.
It wasn't long before Felipa, who was thinking alone, was interrupted again, and a muffled voice came from outside the door.
"Something happened."
"Don't bother me......"
"It's Triss, someone found Triss down the hill, she must have come from the direction of Kylemohan."
"Kyle Mohan?"
Felipa's eyes lit up, "Bring her in...... And help me get another person. ”
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Triss with messy hair and stains, especially the forbidden ring that Triss carried in her hand.
"Just now, did you think that your lover was destroyed along with that castle?"
Yennefa's face turned pale, apparently not recovering from the shock just now, and she glanced at Triss, who had a calm face.
"What do you want?" Yennefer was-for-tat and did not deny the facts that Felipa had said.
"I just like that."
Felipa smiled.
"I think you already know what happened, and now I'm willing to give you a chance."
Felipa looked at Yennefer.
"Wegofortez will attack at dawn, and the main force of the attack will be real soldiers disguised as mercenaries, and in addition to this, we will also take out some of the Kodwin soldiers who have been sent."
"An army of this size is enough to level a city, and I have already sent someone to spread the news just now, and follow-up reinforcements are on the way."
"The King of Kodwin doesn't mind having an extra wife of fourteen or fifteen years old, even if it's a long way from Sinrila, but if that girl is traded, it will definitely be exchanged for a lot of political bargaining chips."
"So one after another Kodwin armies will block the entire mountain range, and when the time comes, one person and one foot will be enough to level the entire Kellmohan."
"So the people in there are dead."
Hearing this, although the expression on Ye Naifa's face was tense, the worry in his eyes could not be concealed.
Warlocks seem to have great power, but this power cannot be above the royal power and nobility.
"But now, I have a way to keep Geralt alive."
Felipa's voice was seductive.
"What's the solution?" Ye Naifa asked urgently.
"You!"
Felipa pointed to the sorceress.
"Me?!" Ye Naifa sneered, "There is everything he cherishes there, and he won't leave." ”
"Even if it's for you?"
Ye Naifa's face darkened, and he shook his head.
She knew Geralt, and the man was even willing to die for her, but there were some things he would never do.
And this is one of the reasons why the two of them frequently break out into disputes.
"What about you?"
"Do you want him to live?"
Felipa continued.
"What do you mean?"
"Make a deal."
"I can let you in and bring Geralt out, but I have one condition, I want something other than Geralt."
"What's that?"
"Kyle Mohan's means of disabling magic."
"That's impossible, Geralt won't give it to me, maybe he doesn't know."
"That's your problem."
"My friend, there's no way you can let him survive and continue to love you, like the one you lost when you became a warlock."
"Don't be too greedy, there's always something you can't take care of."
"They are unwary of you, whether it is stealing or coercing, you can use all means, as long as you can get what I want."
"When the time comes, I'll send someone to pick you up before dawn, give me what I want, and you can take Geralt and leave."
"He's going to hate me for the rest of his life!"
Yennefer's face turned pale, as if he had thought of that terrible result.
"But he can live."
The last sentence pierced Yennefa's heart like a sharp blade, making her whole body tremble.
"Don't promise her, Yennefer, even if you do succeed, everyone will die, and only Geralt himself will ......"
Triss on the side suddenly shouted loudly.
"Whatever, you can think about it, but there's not much time left for you." Felipa didn't seem to be in a hurry.
The look in her eyes was determined, such a condition would never be agreed to by ordinary people, but she knew Ye Naifa.
"Okay, I promise you!"
This sentence seemed to exhaust all of Yennefer's strength.
"But I have one condition."
"Tell me about it?"
"Succeed or not, you're going to let Triss go."
Yennefer made the choice.
The first is to survive...... Even if you're disappointed in me by then, but, Geralt, you'll at least have Triss.
