The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 207 You all have dirty hearts when playing politics

Lynn gave the shop assistant an extra oren as a tip, asking him to take better care of the horses he brought.

Then he carried Sianna to the room he had booked.

He laid Sianna on the bed.

I sat on the floor and entered the meditative state again.

Although the demon hunter has not yet reached the level of fasting, he can use meditation instead of sleep when necessary.

More than an hour later, Sianna finally woke up.

She sat up in bed, a bewildered look on her face.

He obviously didn't understand why he ended up here.

"You're awake. You're the best among this group of new recruits."

Lynn finished his meditation, stood up from the ground, and found a chair to sit down.

He made a stern face and complained seriously.

"Why am I here?"

"You can't remember anything?"

Sianna held her head in her hands and tried to recall.

Finally I recalled the memory before I fainted.

"Wait, what about those people? Did you kill them all?"

"I drove him away."

Sianna was unexpectedly hard to fool.

"That means death... But why did you save me? You could have just left me alone."

"How could I ignore you? Your grandmother paid me a large sum of money, and I let you be kidnapped by those people and then blackmailed your grandmother? What do you think of witchers? We are also very trustworthy, okay?"

Siana paused after hearing this, then continued.

"You knew I ran away?"

"Correct."

"When?"

"From the moment you pretended to be asleep."

Sianna was stunned for a moment.

"Then you also heard my conversation with those Nilfgaardians?"

"Exactly word for word."

Sianna paused and said.

"In that case, then take me back... and don't make that expression for now."

She counted on her fingers and said, "Look, Grandmother asked you to take me out of Toussaint, and you've already done it. The commission has been fulfilled."

"Now, I want you to take me to Ms. Fringilla."

Lynn smiled.

Said in the tone of a merchant leader.

"My dear lady, do you take me for a fool, or do you take your grandmother for a fool?"

"Do you think your grandmother will buy into what you said?" Sienna said, shaking her hands.

"You just need to not tell her, right? Smuggle me to Ms. Fringilla and let her hide me."

"Ms. Fringilla is very wealthy. She will reward you well on my behalf."

"Okay, let's assume I agree," Lynn crossed her arms over her chest, "and what?"

Sianna was a little confused by the question.

"What then?"

Lynn spread his hands.

"You are the Son of Disaster. Even though you don't believe it, and neither do I, the people of Toussaint firmly believe it."

"Your grandmother is willing to risk offending the Warlock Brotherhood by handing you over to me."

"Even if the Warlock Brotherhood is angry, at least it will calm the people's resentment. The nobles and commoners will still support Her Royal Highness the Duchess."

"But if you return to Toussaint and the people discover that you never left Toussaint, do you know what will happen?"

Lynn paused, giving Sianna some time to think before he continued.

"Fringilla told me that Toussaint only appears peaceful on the surface. Outsiders who don't know the inside story think it's a fairytale land, but in fact, there are undercurrents surging underneath."

"The nobles of Toussaint are generally divided into two factions:"

"One faction is the 'independence faction', which advocates that Toussaint maintain the status quo. Aside from outsourcing its national defense to Nilfgaard, they retain their independence, refusing to submit to the Emperor or join Nilfgaard's foreign wars.

"The other faction is the 'Union Faction', which advocates merging with Nilfgaard and turning Toussaint into one of Nilfgaard's provinces."

"In contrast to the 'independence faction,' the 'integration faction' believes Toussaint should actively participate in Nilfgaard's foreign wars, thereby gaining access to the empire's ruling class and integrating with the Nilfgaardian nobility to safeguard Toussaint's interests."

"Your grandfather, the previous Prince of Toussaint, was actually assassinated by radical members of the 'Union Faction'."

"Right now, the influence of the 'independence faction' and the 'integration faction' in Toussaint is roughly equal."

"But if the granddaughter of Her Highness, the leader of the 'independence faction', returns to Toussaint when the Duchess has already promised the people to expel you..."

"What do you think the public will think? What do you think the 'merger supporters' will think?"

"If you don't know, let me tell you how it will play out:"

"Once the 'Unionists' learn of your return to Toussaint, they will immediately incite the people to oppose Her Royal Highness the Duchess and confront the Duchy Guards loyal to Her Royal Highness."

"Then, no matter how much the Principality Guards restrain themselves, a crossbow arrow will inevitably be fired from somewhere, leading to a bloody conflict."

"Once you see blood, you can't control what happens next."

"The entirety of Toussaint will be plunged into endless chaos and riots. Under the deliberate instigation of those with ulterior motives, the people will completely stand against Her Highness the Duchess and the Duchy Guards. Toussaint will be forcibly torn into two, or even multiple, camps."

"If the entire Toussaint rebels against the Duchess, then it would be impossible to suppress the rebellion with only the Knights-Errant and the Duchy Guard."

"Even by that time, some Knights-Errant and soldiers of the Principality Guard might even join the opposing camp."

"And when this rebellion intensified and the situation became so serious that it was beyond everyone's control..."

"The Nilfgaardian army will enter Toussaint in the name of maintaining stability among allies and kill all those who disobey Nilfgaard's orders."

"If your grandmother and sister are still alive by then, your grandmother will be given a cup of poisoned wine, and your sister will be married to the emperor to ensure that he has a strong claim to Toussaint."

"Finally, Nilfgaard achieved complete control of Toussaint as it wished. Perhaps the emperor would retain some of the nobles of the 'Merger Faction' for the sake of convenience and stability."

"But for the vast majority of the remaining ones, we will definitely use various means to ensure that they die under suspicious circumstances."

Perhaps Syanna received an elite education, but for a human who has been familiar with Chinese and foreign history since childhood and has played Crusader Kingdoms for more than 6,000 hours, he can see with his eyes closed the future of Toussaint after Syanna made the choice.
