300. Chapter 297 The Kidnapped Princess



After more than ten seconds, he suddenly remembered that Geralt was talking about Ciri's mother, the silly and naive Princess of Cintra.

In recent years, he had not paid attention to Ciri's news. He only heard that after the disappearance of the hedgehog man Donnie, the wedding was held as usual under the manipulation of Queen Calanthe, and the beautiful queen found a substitute to complete the wedding on Donnie's behalf.

After the wedding, Princess Pavetta did not obtain the inheritance rights of Cintra. Cintra, a northern power allied with Skellige, is still under the control of Queen Calanthe. With the strong support of Skellige, its development has become more and more smooth.

Apart from the information told to him by the well-informed sorceress, the rest was collected by his little slave Sianna.

Sianna has been very hardworking in recent years and has devoted almost all her energy to the Wayne Chamber of Commerce. In the entire northern business circle, some people have given her the nickname of the Queen of Business.

Their main characteristic is their wealth and power. Every time they spend money, they spend thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins without blinking an eye. Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem in front of the Wayne Chamber of Commerce.

Even many nobles would respect her as the Chamber of Commerce agent, and few blind people would dare to mess with her.

As the daughter of the former Duke, Sianna has received a very good education, has an excellent character and wisdom, and is also an ambitious girl.

I don't know if it's because she has a very keen sense of power, but after learning some of the seemingly plausible business things Wayne taught her, she unexpectedly has considerable business talent and has made the Wayne Chamber of Commerce even more powerful.

However, what outsiders don’t know is that this beautiful lady who is quite famous in the business world, a business genius known as the Queen of Business, is just an obedient little slave girl in front of Wayne.

She is still worried about not being able to give birth to a child for Wayne and consolidate her position, so she works extra hard every time in bed.

This girl knows very well where her rights come from and is a smart person who knows the affairs of the world.

After recalling the information about Cintra in his memory, Wayne waved to his men and asked them to temporarily leave the council hall, and then asked Geralt:

"I remember your girl of destiny, her name seems to be Ciri, right? She seems to be almost four years old this year."

"Did something happen to her, too?"

Geralt shook his head with a serious expression and said, "The girl is fine. Queen Calanthe is very strict with her granddaughter. There are a lot of guards guarding her every day."

"Ye told me that Queen Calanthe listened very well to your advice. The royal court of Cintra invited two sorcerers to serve as royal advisors."

"The main responsibility is also the safety of the royal family members."

"However, according to the news from there, because the environment in the northern countries has been somewhat turbulent in recent months, Queen Calanthe wants to arrange another husband for Princess Pavetta to consolidate Cintra's ally, the Kingdom of Verden."

"So we arranged for Princess Pavetta to be sent as an envoy to the Kingdom of Verden."

"But a few days before departure, Princess Pavit mysteriously disappeared."

"Queen Calanthe initially thought that the princess wanted to escape from her marriage, so she arranged for a warlock and several professional detectives to find the princess. However, they finally concluded that the princess was kidnapped."

At this point, Geralt smiled a little stiffly and said to Wayne:

"You should know that well, Wayne."

"If she really couldn't think of any other solution, given the queen's personality, there's no way she would have asked someone to come to me to accept the commission."

"Queen Calanthe was very worried. I kidnapped her granddaughter."

Wayne nodded when he heard this. It was indeed true. Ever since Ciri was confirmed to be Geralt's destined daughter, the Kingdom of Cintra basically did not welcome witchers, especially Geralt the White Wolf.

Although this set of rules and regulations is not written explicitly, some people who know the inside story have more or less leaked some information.

Basically, no one will issue commissions and invite demon hunters to work anymore.

"So, what are you going to do, Geralt, are you going to take over this?"

This princess revealed her identity as the owner of ancient blood at the marriage selection banquet, which was simply a crime of possessing a treasure that was coveted by everyone.

Although this news was suppressed by Queen Calanthe, some people who are interested can still find out this information.

Just as he had reminded Queen Calanthe and others before, the Ancient Blood was a legendary powerful force, and every powerful wizard would definitely not mind having such a test subject in his or her laboratory.

If Master Wayne wasn't considered a bad guy, he might have kidnapped Princess Pavetta.

Whether using them as breeding machines, experimental subjects, or training them to become your own subordinates, it is a very cost-effective thing.

Fortunately, young Ciri did not show her bloodline talent, and the probability of two generations awakening the ancient blood at the same time is too small. Otherwise, Princess Pavetta might not be the only one who was kidnapped.

Geralt scratched his chin when he heard this. There was a huge scar on his chin that extended directly to his lips, making him look a bit hideous.

This was the scar left when he was rescued from the gates of death by Margarita three years ago. There were more than a dozen scars on his chest and back, all left by that group of fallen human warriors. That was probably the closest Geralt had ever been to death.

"Actually, I don't really want to get involved in this matter, Wayne."

"But you know, Yennefer has always wanted a child. Ever since she believed in the Lady of the Lake, she has cared more about this girl of destiny than I do."

"This time, she was the first to know the news and then informed me."

"She is going to leave today, so I came to report this to you."

Wayne nodded, not surprised at all.

Since the incident three years ago, Yennefer also joined the Witcher Order, but she was only a part-time worker, and her main responsibility was to serve as the vice-president and teacher in the Warlock Academy that Triss had just established.

Although Triss is the nominal principal, she is responsible for too many things. Although the Warlock School is still in its infancy and there are only a dozen students in total, Yennefer is still in charge of the main preparations for the construction.

Wayne was quite respectful to this sorceress whom he could call his sister-in-law. He gave her considerable freedom, provided her with sufficient funding, and basically did not impose many restrictions on her.

As for the witcher, the formal witcher school has been built. There are currently three colleges in total, the Wolf College, the Viper College and the Griffin College.

All witcher apprentices receive a unified witcher course before the age of ten. After they are ten years old, they will choose different academies based on their talents and preferences.

Some people who do not have the required talents and abilities will be kicked out of the academy and asked to do other jobs.

In Kaermorhan, demon hunter is no longer a lowly profession, but a profession that can only be chosen by people with talent and gifts.

Due to the war in the Kingdom of Kaedwen, there are quite a lot of orphans. Now the number of students in the entire academy has exceeded fifty. Although it is likely that only about half of these people will graduate, Vesemir of the Wolf School, Letho of the Viper School, and George of the Griffin School all feel very gratified about such a grand occasion.

And because the White Wolf Geralt had been recuperating from his injuries in the past few years, he could be considered one of the leaders of the Wolf Academy.

This time he came to Wayne specifically to tell him about Princess Pavetta, and also mainly to ask for leave as he needed to leave Kaermohen for a while.

Wayne nodded, then touched his chin, thought for a few seconds and said, "I'm also interested in this matter. Let's do this."

"You and Yennefer go and investigate the situation first and clarify some necessary matters."

"Three days later, after I have dealt with some matters in the cult, I will bring people to Cintra to meet you."
