The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 191: Children who don’t receive love will grow up to be monsters (Part )

Therefore, when it comes to the Curse of the Black Sun, Lynn agrees with Geralt:
In this world where gods do exist, there are certainly true prophecies.

But the Prophecy of Eltibald is not a real prophecy, it should be called the Mania of Eltibald the Mad.

True prophecies all rhyme, but the mania of the madman Eitibald does not rhyme at all.

This so-called prophecy is actually nothing more than the Warlock Brotherhood's attempt to use this crazy talk to destroy the alliances between kingdoms, break up the marriages between nobles, and disrupt the order agreed upon by the countries.

In the end, you just benefit from it.

The reason why the Black Sun Curse spread so quickly like a plague was naturally due to the secret assistance of the Warlock Brotherhood.

They pushed Etibald to the forefront, asking him to create panic and disrupt order.

If people realize in the future that there is no such thing as the Black Sun Curse, they will only hold Etibald accountable.

The Brotherhood of Warlocks stayed out of the matter.

To put it bluntly, the Warlock Brotherhood does not have the courage to save the world, but they do have the courage to abuse their power for personal gain in the name of saving the world, and they are very brave.

As for what Sianna will do in the future...

Rather than saying that the Black Sun Curse drove her crazy, it would be more accurate to say that it was simply her miserable childhood and the displacement she suffered after being exiled that led to her madness.

People like Uzumaki Naruto, who were born in darkness but still yearn for light, are ultimately only a very rare exception.

Most of them are like the Elven saying:
Children who are not loved will become monsters when they grow up.

……

When she heard Lynn's answer that she could not, Duchess Carolberta could no longer conceal the disappointment on her face.

Lynn asked, pretending to be clueless.

"Your Highness, the Duchess, could it be that someone in the palace has been cursed by the Black Sun?"

"It's Miss Sianna." It was not the Duchess who answered the witcher, but the court sorceress Fringilla.

"Miss Sianna?"

"She is the granddaughter of Her Royal Highness the Duchess. If we follow the continent's common law of primogeniture, Miss Sienna will become the future Duchess of Toussaint, but..."

There was no need for her to continue the conversation, as Lin En understood.

The same goes for Deidre and Renfri.

Even if one is of noble birth, as long as he is identified as a cursed child, he will be automatically deprived of the right of inheritance.

"Master Lin En, you are from the north. I heard that northerners would kill girls cursed by the Black Sun or imprison them in high towers and abuse them."

In response to Duchess Carloberta's question, Lynn nodded frankly.

"Yes."

"Is there no other way?"

"Have."

Lin En remembered that in the original plot, after Sienna was exiled from Toussaint, she lived alone for many years.

Including Deidre and Renfri.

If it is because Lady Benedict holds great power that the Warlock Brotherhood is so cautious and dares not act rashly.

Then why were these three girls not captured by the Warlock Brotherhood?
Don’t you want to?
Or is it not possible?
As mentioned before, girls born during a solar eclipse have bodies that are no different from normal girls.

They have neither a second heart nor a third lung.

Even the Warlock Brotherhood couldn't accurately locate a person just by knowing a name.

Not even magic.

Because it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

In other words, whether this child is a child of disaster actually depends entirely on the child's parents.

If the child's parents choose not to make it public and conceal the child's true birth time (the shortest solar eclipse is only a few minutes, and the longest is only a few hours), then the Warlock Brotherhood will actually have no way of knowing. So he thought about it and answered.

"There is one way, that is to not let others know that this child was born during the solar eclipse and treat her as if she were a normal child."

"In this way, when the child grows up, he will naturally become like a normal child."

Duchess Carloberta and Fringilla exchanged glances.

Obviously, no one expected that the solution given by the witcher would be unexpectedly un-witcher-like.

The Duchess smiled wryly.

"Master Demon Hunter, it would be great if you could come to Toussaint ten years earlier."

Immediately, she couldn't help but sigh.

The solution proposed by the witcher actually coincided with the proposal made by Fringilla when Sianna was born.

Unfortunately, when Sienna was born, the Duchess's husband, the Prince of Toussaint, was still alive.

He did not listen to Fringilla's advice or the Duchess's pleading, but chose to contact the Warlock Brotherhood.

The other side responded quickly and sent a warlock over.

According to Etibald's prophecy, they soon confirmed that Sienna was indeed the child of disaster who could cause the destruction of the world.

The sorcerer told the prince that they would visit Toussaint again on Syanna's eleventh birthday.

And take away the Son of Disaster.

Despite the Duchess's desperate efforts to cover it up, the news of the Warlock Brotherhood's visit and that Syanna was the Child of Disaster spread like wildfire to every corner of Toussaint.

Both nobles and common people were excited.

If they didn't know that Sianna was a "scourge" and would be taken away by the Warlock Brotherhood one day, a rebellion might even break out.

Naturally, because of the Black Sun Curse, the guards, servants, and maids in the palace never treated Sianna like an ordinary princess.

This also resulted in Sianna never receiving love and care over the years.

Now, Sianna is ten years old.

It’s only a few days away from my eleventh birthday.

The prince had died long ago. Logically speaking, as the ruler of Toussaint, Duchess Carloberta should not be able to take Sianna away by force if she insisted on keeping her.

But doing so would inevitably lead to extreme dissatisfaction among Toussaint, from the nobles to the common people.

Although Toussaint is known as a fairy-tale kingdom and a land of knights, it does not mean that there are no intrigues and ambitious plots in this land.

You know, the first duke, Ludovico, the "Grand Duke of the Lance", also relied on conspiracy to defeat the previous owner of this land.

Duchess Carloberta knew very well that if she refused the Warlock Brotherhood's request to take Sianna away, a major rebellion would inevitably await her.

By then, even the nobles and knights who originally supported her would probably stand against her.

Therefore, Duchess Carolberta could only hope to find a loyal and reliable protector for her children.

"I heard that witchers use the Law of Accident to take children away and train them to become new witchers."

Duchess Carolberta didn't know whether her idea was a bad one or not.

Although Sianna never received love, at least she had enough food and clothing.

And the life of a witcher...

The Duchess heard that most of them were living in misery.

No matter how hard they tried, the world showed them no mercy, only endless suffering.

If given a choice, the Duchess would not want Sienna to live the life of a witcher.

But no matter how bad the life of a witcher is, it is better than being imprisoned in a tower for the rest of your life.
