Chapter 168 Fire Spreading Cult 【Subscription】

Standing on the balcony of the castle of the Royal Palace, Vatier watched Skellen being pronounced guilty of treason by the Justice of the Supreme Special Court of the Eternal Empire.

Although Vatier wanted to plead for Skellen in front of Rey, Vatier thought that his power was in jeopardy, so he lowered his head and closed his mouth.

Watching Skellen he was sentenced to hang and publicly executed in Millennium Square in the City of Golden Towers.

"Vatier, are all Skellen's accomplices back..."

Rey glanced at the twitching figure on the gallows in the square, shook the wine in the glass, lowered his head and smelled the fragrant aroma of wine, looked at the setting sun like blood, and asked Wartier warmly.

"Your Majesty, the accomplice you mentioned... was captured in Stiga Castle..."

"No, no, no..."

Rey shook his head slightly and said with a slight smile.

"Vattier, you know... Duke Adal Aip d'Arcy, Count Joachim de Wit, Count Brony, Count Dalvi, Berengar Louwarden, they are with Stephen Skellen had planned to overthrow Emperor Emhyr and then install a puppet emperor in power..."

"But……"

Vatier raised his head in shock, looked at Rey and said in horror, but saw Rey shaking his head lightly and not daring to continue.

After all, he knew that both Morvan and his father, Prince Vrys, had become potential candidates for emperor, and saying this now was simply asking for death.

Vatierton was where he was, with big beads of sweat streaming down his back. He bent over and looked at Rey respectfully, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor's instructions, not daring to think any further.

"We all know what they want to do...Yes, I think you know that I am innocent...Although it was because Louwarden betrayed them and reported to His Majesty Emhyr, he forgave them and kept the remaining participants. They were sent to the battlefield...but the victory of the great war cannot cover up their sins..."

Vatier nodded carefully and agreed with Rey's statement. He knew what the emperor was talking about - after these people who participated in the rebellion went to the battlefield, their slackness not only led to the failure of the local war, but also almost led to the collapse of the empire. The war at Brenner went terribly wrong.

If His Majesty Emperor Rey hadn't come out of the blue to turn the tide, I don't know what the current battlefield situation would have been like.

However, it is not his place to comment on whether His Majesty the Emperor's role in it is innocent...

"But Duke Darcy..."

Vatier carefully looked up at Rey's side face and carefully mentioned a name, hoping to remind the new emperor Rey not to act young and kill "criminal ministers" so arbitrarily, causing instability in the throne.

After all, Duke Darcy is not only a Nilfgaardian noble, but also a patriarch of three dynasties during the era of Fergus Emres, the usurper and Emhyr Emres. Well, including Rey, he is already four The court elder is old, and his influence in the political arena is very significant.

Emhyr was able to regain the emperor's throne with Darcy's help.Moreover, in this war, Duke Darcy's performance was very outstanding, and he had no excuse to take action.

"He has too many thoughts and too many tentacles... Seeing that he is too old to fight on the battlefield, let him recuperate in the monastery of the church and praise the glory of the sun... Louwarden will It depends on his future performance. As for the others...tonight, you will lead the guards to lock them into the "fortress" and deal with them..."

Rey shook his head, took a sip of wine, looked at Vatier calmly, and said lightly, and arranged the fate of several families in an understatement.

"There is also the Merchant Guild..."

After listening to Rey's arrangement, Vatier breathed a sigh of relief. The worst-case scenario did not occur. His Majesty the Emperor was still not dazzled by victory and youthful enthusiasm. However, the words that came out of Rey's mouth were... It gave him a chill in his heart, and he was stunned, almost kneeling down in fright.

After all, the Merchant Guild is not only the most influential organization in the Nilfgaardian Empire, but also has a significant influence in the political life of the empire.Although it is ostensibly a trading organization of Nilfgaardian merchants, behind the scenes it has the support of a huge imperial aristocracy.

Therefore, although it is nominally a business organization, its members can often influence the fate of the empire and even the world. It is present in the replacement of the Nilfgaard throne and the Nilfgaard Empire's foreign wars.

This makes the Merchant Guild not a pure trading organization. Because of its commercial characteristics, members of the guild can appear reasonably and legally in any city in the northern continent, whether it is Novigrad, the Pearl of the North, or in the tense environment of North-South conflict. Vizima, the capital of Temeria, has become the best disguise for spies and spies.

It also makes the Nilfgaard Intelligence Agency have a very close relationship with the Merchant Guild, and the leader of the Nilfgaard Intelligence Agency, Vatir, also has a very close relationship with the Merchant Guild.

At this time, Rey suddenly mentioned the Merchant Guild, thinking of his previous liquidation of the "conspirators", which made Vatier feel very worried and scared, fearing that Rey was young and ignorant and would take action against this behemoth, and would be shaken. The foundation of the empire.

Rey looked at the frightened Vatier, shook his head with a faint smile, put the wine glass on the guardrail of the balcony, and said with a faint smile: "Don't worry, look at how scared you are... Look at this... …”

"His Majesty……"

Vatier finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Rey pull out a gold badge from his palm, a triangular hollow pendant made of gold, with a star surrounded by flames engraved inside, which was the identification mark of the merchant guild members. , but Rey's next words made his blood pressure rise to another peak.

"Don't you think the Merchant Guild is too arrogant and despises the imperial power? Look at the triangle that traps the sun. What do they want to do? What do they want to do?!"

"This...Your Majesty...I..."

"It's not that I'm nitpicking... Look, how contemptuous of the imperial power this is. Do they think that the merchant guilds in the empire are the masters? The emperor can only listen to the opinions of these business groups before issuing orders, and the selection of the emperor is determined by them. ?"

"Your Majesty...you know..."

"Yes, of course I know... But I have to put a noose on these ignorant businessmen, lest they can't recognize who their master is... Order the merchants' guild to rectify the logo, and all businessmen must envelope the Sun Sect, All merchants must be members of the nobility...I allow them to purchase titles from me..."

Hearing that Rey was planning to punish the Merchant Guild, Vatier was so frightened that the two of them trembled, and big beads of sweat came out of his forehead. After all, attacking the Merchant Guild was too dangerous, but fortunately Rey's punishment was mainly... It was just superficial, and it didn't cause serious harm to the merchants' guild.

Even if it was the final identity requirement, Rey made an opening for it.It's unclear whether Rey really wants to attack the merchant guild, or whether he is using it to establish authority and make a lot of money. What Vatier knows is that His Majesty the Emperor is definitely going to make a lot of money.

And the businessmen will put down all their grievances at the last request of His Majesty the Emperor and be willing to be slaughtered. After all, this is a title, a nobleman, a status that many businessmen dream of... "These orders, when the time comes, you will Just say it’s His Majesty Emhyr’s death... With me behind you, no one can stop your actions, go ahead..."

"I understand, Your Majesty."

Vatier bowed to Rey and said goodbye. He knew what Rey meant very well - to throw the blame on the late emperor's head, and to use His Majesty's god-like strength to establish supreme authority for himself and guarantee his actions. The victory will not lead to rebellion.

Hmm~ Even though all discerning people knew that this was an order from the new emperor, they had to accept this hesitant order, take the steps handed over by the emperor, and avoid a head-on conflict with His Majesty the Emperor.

Vatier walked towards the castle with Rey's orders. Rey didn't even look at him. He looked at Ciri in the garden, his queen, and Ciri's adoptive parents Yennefer and Gerald. Te, um~ As for Calanthe, she is helping Rey with some government affairs.

After settling the trivial matters regarding the throne of Nilfgaard, Rey turned his attention to the witcher. After all, the country is just a trivial matter in the witcher world, and the witcher is the main focus of his plan. , after all, this is a very good extraordinary system and fighter.

Thinking of these, Rey had a thought in his mind, and the figure flashed and appeared in the garden.

April arrived without any notice, bringing vitality to the giant southern city of the Golden Tower City. Dandelions grew on the grass, white flowers bloomed on the leafy trees, and the oak trees maintained their reserved posture. , the appearance is still dark, but at the ends of the branches, green leaves begin to sprout.

"August," Geralt looked at Ciri and asked, "Ciri, where did you go at that time? We have no news about you..."

Yennefer silently held Ciri in her arms with her arms, gently stroking her hair to protect her so that she would no longer be alone.

"August," Shire said softly, stroking her fine hair, "At that time, Rey and I went to a village called Unicorn. It was very remote and very quiet and peaceful. It was named after the village that blessed it. The straw unicorn, it was just a poor, ridiculous doll, and we stayed there for about four months..."

"Stayed there for four months, Ciri, why not?"

"Well~ Rey found me a tutor from a small cabin in the Perelat Swamp, Visogota, who was a surgeon, alchemist, scholar, historian, philosopher and Moralist, and I heard Ray say that he was a professor at two universities, Fort Bull College and Imperial College. In these four months, he taught me a lot..."

"and then……"

"Then, Shirley and I experienced an interesting, long and seemingly short journey..."

Rey suddenly appeared aside and spoke to Geralt, with a gentle and gentle attitude.But Yennefer and Geralt are facing a formidable enemy. After all, whether they see Rey's terrifying strength with their own eyes or analyze Rey's role in a series of events, it makes people feel frightened.

Ciri may not feel deeply around Rey, but as bystanders and witnesses of the series of events, they can feel the horror of the huge black hand played by Rey in destiny.

Rey opened his arms and held Ciri in his arms, turned around a few times, waved to Yennefer and Geralt, and said with a smile:

"Sigh... don't be like this. As Xi Rui's husband, I have full respect for you. Don't look at me so defensively... I guess you have a deep misunderstanding of me... You may not believe it... I am actually a very kind person... You can ask Xiri about this..."

Ciri held Rey's arms and showed a happy smile. Ciri, who had already been brainwashed by Rey's "Great Love", nodded vigorously and said, "Geralt, mom, Rey is a kind-hearted person." People, please don’t misunderstand him..."

Hearing this, the corners of Yennefer and Geralt's eyes twitched involuntarily. How could they believe this after witnessing Rey easily killing thousands of people? However, the situation forced them to nod and want to see. Look at Rey's excuses.

But unexpectedly, Rey did not play his cards according to common sense, but suddenly changed the topic. He smiled and said to Geralt:

"Geralt, do you still remember the Order of the Demon Hunters? This is an independent organization under the leadership of a mage, which aims to save human society from the ravages of monsters by strengthening humans—that is, demon hunters. The teaching The regiment is the origin of the demon hunters, and the major demon hunter schools are the direct successors of the demon hunter order..."

Geralt and Yennefer looked at each other, wondering why Rey suddenly mentioned this history, "Of course I know, but what does this have to do with you..."

"Of course, it does matter. I have known since I was a child that there is a group of people in the world who have superhuman bodies and relevant knowledge. They will take it as their own duty to help mankind, and based on the spirit of chivalry, they will help mankind eliminate monsters and protect the people on the continent. People who act according to the people..."

"They are in the city, in the countryside, and in the wilderness, burdened with discrimination and contempt from ordinary people, and enduring the distrust of the rulers, but they do not forget their original intentions and consistently hunt monsters and protect humans... In the end, they may A strange corner died anonymously in pain and killing..."

"They have always been nameless, but they silently guard mankind..."

As Rey spoke, he wiped his tears fiercely. Although Geralt was a little embarrassed and proud by Rey's flattery and flattery, he wanted to give him a thumbs up, sit down with Rey, have a drink, and have a chat. Play Gwent, lead as a confidant.

After all, Rey's words vividly summarized the situation and image of the witcher. As for some beautification, isn't that normal?
But Yennefer was on the side, so he had no choice but to endure it and continue to see what Rey said.

"So, I was thinking about why and what I could do. I kept thinking hard... Finally one day, I looked at the sun and I finally understood..."

"I understand that the Witcher is a "real hero". Even in the face of suffering and harsh criticism, he still chooses to burn himself and illuminate others. This is his path and what he is willing to do. That’s what makes witchers great.”

"Because the Order of Demon Hunters is not only the Order of Demon Hunters, but also the Order of Fire. The Demon Hunters burned themselves to guard the rise, survival, and development of mankind in this dark world..."

"The demon hunters have stood out from the human race and become new demon hunters under the training of the older generation of demon hunters. Generation after generation..."

"The inheritance continues, the fire will never be extinguished..."
