Chapter 484: The good girl’s egg hatched! Pressure from the wizard’s association!
I don’t know when it started, but thick clouds gradually piled up in the sky.

“no!”

Ailin denied it categorically.

He glanced at Fred, who was also hesitant to speak, and shook his head firmly:

“Master Dante, Fred, I know you don’t want your hatred to affect us and the school.”

“But in fact, the treatment of Evans is now not only revenge for you, Fred, Hughes and Bunter.”

“Far from it!”

He glared at Evans, who was in a daze under the Axifa seal:

“This is a conspiracy against the demon hunters.”

“Evans, Padraic Vasquez, and Little House, they wanted to deceive and kill all the demon hunters who passed through Monte Calvo, not just you four.”

“If we don’t fight back with strong actions, and the Wolf School’s weakness is discovered, the people behind the scenes will surely intensify their actions.”

“By then, who knows, even those small forces that no one looks down upon might dare to step on us.”

“When the wall falls, everyone pushes it down, which is the most terrifying thing.”

Ailin even suspected that the School of the Wolf was too kind, too neutral, and too weak, which led to the fatal defense of Kaer Morhen.

Otherwise, even if some bandit-like farmers and thugs knew the location of the Ancient Sea Fortress, how could they dare to really surround and attack a war fortress full of extraordinary demon hunters?

Don’t they want to live anymore?
Not to mention the Griffin School, which has a stronger sense of morality than the Wolf School, advocates chivalry more, and pays more attention to personal morality and cultivation.

In this world, if good people want to survive, they have to be more ruthless than bad people!
Dante was silent for a long time, then asked, “What do you want to do with Evans?”

Ailin said coldly, “In front of the common people, priests, and nobles of Elland, tell them about his evil deeds and conspiracies, and then kill him openly. You can either behead him or hang him.”

“No, no!” Dante and Vesemir denied it in unison. “You are trampling on the dignity of Redania. Bald Radovid IV and the nobles of Redania will go crazy.”

“Then kill him under the notarization of Aunt Ianna and Duke Mason.” Ailin changed his mind without hesitation. “There must be someone to witness it, and then let the bard spread it.”

That’s not bad…Dante and Vesemir looked at each other.

Compared to Arryn’s previous practice, which simply brought shame to Redania, no, to the entire aristocratic class by executing a noble in front of the common people, the execution in private under the witness of several nobles was still acceptable.

“But are the high priest of the Temple of Meliteli and the Duke really willing to witness such a thing?” Dante said after hesitating for a few seconds.

Although Ailin has always said that he has a good relationship with both of them, witnessing Evans’ death will more or less offend the Redalia and Risberg Civil Partnership.

That High Priest Ianna and Duke Mason would be willing to do something that would offend a big country for them.

“Don’t worry, it should be fine.” Vesemir patted Dante’s shoulder. “The relationship between High Priest Ianna, Duke Mason and Arryn is indeed very good.”

With Arryn, not with us…Dante grasped the key and glanced at Vesemir.

How does a traveling apprentice make connections beyond his mentor?
Vesemir actually spoke so confidently about relying on his apprentice…

Having decided on what to do with Evans, one has to face the consequences.

“In Redalia, you can find Duke Mason and High Priest Ianna,” Vesemir frowned, “but as for the Wizards’ Guild, I wonder if Lady Vera has returned to Kaer Morhen…”

Relatively speaking.

There is still a chance to ease the situation with Radovid IV the Bald and the Redanian nobles.

The relationships among the nobles in the northern continent are complicated. As an important part of eliminating the threat of monsters and protecting human wealth, demon hunters are naturally also part of this network.

Besides, they were not the ones provoking in essence. They were the victims. In addition to Duke Mason and High Priest Ianna, they could always find ways to ease the relationship between the two parties through the relationship between the Chief and other witcher masters.

This is another reason why the two demon hunter masters did not insist on the method of disposal.

But the Wizarding Society is the real big trouble.

The Wolf School is now almost at odds with the two largest forces in the Wizarding World – Ben Ader College and the Risberg Civil Partnership.

What if they incite the entire wizarding guild to be hostile to the Wolf School and even the Witchers?

They can easily launch a war order or even an extermination order against the witchers at the Warlock Conference at the end of the year. This is the real big problem.

The Wizarding Society is a real behemoth in the northern continent.

From the first Northern War in the later generations, King Foltest of Temeria, King Vizimir II of Redania, Henselt of Kaedwen, Meev of Lyria and Rivia, and Demave of Aedirn…

When the kings of the five northern kingdoms held a secret meeting in Haji Fortress to discuss the succession of Cintra, they complained that the war between the North and Nilfgaard was “controlled by Viggoforts and the Wizarding Society in every way.”

This shows the status of the Wizarding Society in the Northern Continent.

And at this time.

In this era when the Wolf School has not yet declined, the power of the Wizarding Society in the Northern Continent will only be greater than it will be a hundred years later.

therefore.

Once the loosely organized wizards actually issue war and extermination orders, even the kings of the countries that have received favors from the witchers will not be able to speak out. It would be considered the most benevolent thing for them not to participate in the feast of dividing up the witchers.

No school of thought can withstand such a challenge.

Do not!
All the schools of demon hunters combined would be unable to resist this disaster.

Therefore, at the very least, we must not allow Ban Ade College and the Lisberg Civil Partnership to use the name of the entire Wizarding Society to target the Wolf School.

“We don’t have that much time…”

Ailin thought for a moment and shook his head.

“Ms. Vera, we don’t know when she will be back, but Ben Ade College and the Risberg Civil Partnership may be able to respond as soon as they get the news.”

“Don’t forget that the heads of Ben Ade College and the Lisberg Civil Partnership are both in Ben Ade right now.”

“Under the instigation of Sonny, an anti-demon hunter, I don’t think anything will happen that will be favorable to us.”

“in addition……”

Ailin paused and said:
“Although it’s a bit disrespectful, even if Madam Vera has returned to Kaer Morhen, given Madam Vera’s position in the Wizarding Society, it seems that she is not important enough. She is more like a lone ranger. She has a guild under her, but it is also affiliated with Aretuza.”

“Her connection with the Wolf School is too deep. It’s hard for the neutral faction to believe her.”

“What should we do then?” Vesemir frowned.

Everyone fell into deep thought.

At this time.

“Good Girl” flew over Elland, and shouts were heard from the ground as usual.

Vesemir and Arryn, who were already used to it, were still deep in thought, but Dante and Fred were attracted by the noise.

Is it because of the Griffin?
Hearing that most of the voices were children’s, Dante laughed and shook his head.

But after listening to a few more sentences, I found something was wrong.

What they shouted… seemed to be Alin’s name… Dante looked at Fred who was also shocked.

The Blue Death, the God Slayer, the Mayday King, the Knight of Elland…

Who are they talking about? Are they all Ailin?

Fred was a little dazed. What had Erin experienced in less than half a year?
Killing God……

Which god was killed?
“Aretusa!” Ailin suddenly spoke, interrupting Fred and Dante’s association.

Vesemir looked up in confusion. “What…what Aretuza?”

Ailin said softly, “Ms. Vera’s weight is not enough, but as the Dean of Aretuza and the only female sorceress among the five members of the Guild of Talent and Art, Tissaia de Vries is enough. We can also invite her to witness Evans’ death.”

“It just so happens that the sorceress’s mind reading can also see through Evans’ lies and help us find the real culprit behind the scenes.”

“Is Arryn also familiar with Tissaia de Vris of Aretuza?” Dante patted Vesemir’s arm blankly.

“Not as good as Lady Ianna and Duke Mason. They are just people who have worked together.” Vesemir shook his head.

Then he frowned slightly and looked at Aylin uncertainly: “Do you think Tissaia de Vries will stand on our side instead of the Ban Ade Academy and the Lisberg Civil Partnership, which are also members of the Wizarding Society and even the Society of Gifted and Crafted?”

This doesn’t sound very reliable.

They had worked with Tissaia de Vris and were comrades-in-arms, but in fact the two sides had never fought side by side.

Aretuza’s interests were clearly more aligned with the Coven, and Vesemir could think of no reason why Tissaia de Vris would side with them.

It’s like a commoner having a dispute with a baron’s cousin, but expecting the nobles to stand on the side of the unrelated commoner.

In the hundreds of years since he became a demon hunter, he has only seen a few examples, no more than five on his fingers.

More often than not, the nobles would unite with their cousins ​​without distinguishing right from wrong, vent their cousins’ anger and bully the common people.

The relationship between Tissaia de Vries and the Ben Ade and Risberg Civil Partnership is more than just that of cousins.

They have common interests in the Wizarding Club.

And interests are a bond stronger than blood ties.

Therefore, even though Alyn mentioned Aretuza College just now, Vesemir didn’t think about it in that direction at all.

“I’m not sure, but we can try.” Ailin said.

If Tissaia de Vris is the same sorceress in his memory who was unwilling to sacrifice the relationship between Ciri and Geralt in exchange for rights for the sake of order and peace and the interests of the northern countries.

It’s not hopeless then.

“This is the only way.” Vesemir and Dante looked at each other and sighed helplessly.

In fact, even if the Wizarding Society did not intervene, the Wolf School would find it difficult to withstand any targeting from either Ban Ade College or the Lisberg Civil Partnership, especially Ban Ade before he was blocked in the college by the Wild Hunt.

However, the Risberg Civil Partnership, which lost a member of the Wizarding Society’s High Council, will inevitably take advantage of the situation and target the Wolf School without any room for maneuver, regardless of whether it is the culprit of this incident or not.

Naturally, there is no need to discuss it further at this moment.

“besides……”

Seeing the great griffin gradually descending and the temple getting closer and closer, Vesemir suddenly said:

“It’s time to get back to Kaer Morhen, Arryn.”

Ailin, who was holding the griffin’s mane, froze and nodded:
“I understand. Let’s let Hughes and Bonte recover in the temple tomorrow. We will return to Kaer Morhen tomorrow, Chief…”

He paused:

“The Chief needs to know all this as soon as possible.”

Vesemir nodded.

Dante saw that Arryn and Vesemir’s mood suddenly became low, and hurriedly said:

“This matter is my responsibility.”

“I will make it clear to the Chief, you don’t have to worry…”

“It has nothing to do with you,” Vesemir interrupted Dante, “It’s not this matter… uh… or rather, it’s not just this matter. Anyway, you don’t have to worry about it…”

If not this, then what else… Dante scratched his head in confusion, not knowing what Vesemir was talking about incoherently.

Vesemir sighed quietly in his heart.

Kaedwen was destroyed, and now there is the hostility of the Redalia and Lisberg Civilian Cooperation Organization. I don’t know if Chief Soi can accept so many blows at once, and how he will deal with them who deviate from the principle of neutrality…

He looked at Ailin’s back, which was much taller and stronger than half a year ago, and his dark golden cat eyes suddenly became firm.

As for Ailin himself, he lowered his head, looking through the black and red wings of the great griffin, overlooking the magnificent buildings among the mountains of Mahakam.

Under the gloomy sky, even the sacred Temple of Meliteli looked particularly gloomy.

now.

Like Vesemir, he was thinking about the Chief and how to deal with the inevitable questioning.

As I was thinking about it, my mind unconsciously and involuntarily became empty.

Soi’s deep, magnetic voice seemed to have magic, constantly circling in my mind.

【Want to be the chief? 】
–
“Good Girl” landed at the old place, and Erni, Klar and others skillfully unhooked the “Good Girl”‘s claws in advance and rolled away.

After the “good girl” came to a steady stop, he consciously and carefully carried Bonte, Big Iron Shield and Fury off the flat back of the big griffin.

It is also at this moment…

“Wow~”

“Good girl” cried abnormally, which made Ailin, who had just walked down, suddenly stunned.

Under everyone’s strange gazes, after a long while, Arryn turned back to Vesemir with a complicated tone and said:

“No matter how much we have to do in Elland, we have to go back to Kaer Morhen tomorrow.”

“What’s wrong?” Vesemir was confused and looked at the big griffin rubbing against Arryn affectionately.

“The good girl’s eggs are about to hatch,” said Aelin, stroking the sharp beak of the great griffin. “If you don’t go back tomorrow, you’ll have to ride back on horseback.”

“That…that…that’s a good thing!”

Except for Dante and Fred who looked confused, the other witchers including Vesemir suddenly became excited.

however.

But there is more surprise.
