The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 327 If you can’t solve the problem, then solve the person who raised the problem
The islands naturally did not forget the great contributor to this victory.

They first paid Lynn a full two thousand ducats in gold coins, and this was just the upfront payment.

After all of Nilfgaard's ships are sold, they will give one-tenth of the proceeds to Lin En.

Don’t think that this one-tenth of income is too little.

You have to know that in this era, how to ensure the loyalty of soldiers? How to make soldiers willingly throw themselves into the battlefield knowing that they will die?
The answer is to distribute the spoils to the soldiers.

At least one-third or two-thirds of the spoils obtained from each battle must be distributed to the soldiers.

This is the only way to ensure that soldiers will not scatter on the battlefield.

There is no army in this world that can move forward without hesitation based solely on beliefs and ideals.

Even the guards of the Temple of Eternal Fire are driven by interests.

If there is not enough distribution of benefits, there will be a mutiny.

Therefore, on the islands side, they had to distribute six-tenths (including pensions for casualties) to the soldiers.

The remaining four-tenths of the profit can only be pocketed by these three lords.

In other words, the profit Lin En obtained was the same as that of the three lords.

This is enough to prove how much the people of the islands appreciate his efforts.

Of course, Gerd also contributed a lot in this battle.

Count Thorgil also rewarded the Bear School witcher for his contribution with a bag full of gold.

Although one shouldn't ask for anything more after receiving such a generous reward, Lin En still raised one point:
He wanted him to deal with Charimier.

Yes, after the Nilfgaardians surrendered, Charimir, who was imprisoned by the Nilfgaardians, naturally fell into the hands of the islanders.

Lord Thorgil agreed almost without a second thought.

Kratz and "Madman" Lugo didn't even know who Charimire was.

After learning that he was just a knight from the Arc Coast Principality, no one had any objections.

Handed Charimire to Lynn.

Earl Thorgil sent a team of soldiers to take Lynn to the dungeon to check on Chalimir. After confirming that he was still alive, Lynn asked them to transfer Chalimir to a relatively clean and tidy place for imprisonment.

At the same time, give Charimier two meals a day and don't let him go hungry.

These additional expenses can be borne by Lynn.

The soldiers of the Tursek family immediately said that it was not necessary. The Earl had already ordered that whatever Lin En needed, it could be met.

Lynn thanked him and left the dungeon.

In fact, he took Charimir from the islanders not because he really wanted to extort a ransom from the family of the duchy knight.

But it was to solve Gede's troubles.

He had not forgotten Gerd's troubles.

When the Duchy of the Arc Coast was in the midst of civil war, Ged rejected the proposal of the current Duchess Helena, causing the other party to resent him.

That's why he sent Charimier and his men to intercept and kill Gede.

Even though Lynn had previously helped Gede and eliminated everyone except Chalimir.

But if there is a first time, there will be a second time.

Moreover, the opportunity is rare, so why not take advantage of it now to help Gede solve this problem completely.

……

"So, what are you going to do?"

When Ged learned that Lynn was ready to help him put an end to his troubles, he was moved but also a little confused.

Lynn smiled confidently, showing that he had a plan in mind.

“In my hometown, there’s a saying: If you can’t solve the problem, then solve the person who raised the problem.”

"You want to assassinate Duchess Helena?" Ged was startled, then he said solemnly, "I am very touched, Lin En, really, but you don't need to do this for me." "No, no, no, you misunderstood, Ged, I won't do it myself."

He glanced at Gede and said comfortingly, "Don't worry about it. Just leave it to me."

Lynn found an empty corner, took out the voice box, and contacted Triss.

After some pleasantries, he told Triss that he had a bargaining chip that could bring huge benefits to both Triss and King Foltest, but the specific details were not convenient to reveal through the voice box, and it would be best if he could meet with Triss.

Triss had no doubt about Lynn's words and immediately said that she would come to Little Skellig Island in person in a few days to see with her own eyes the huge benefits that Lynn mentioned.

So for the next few days, Lynn stayed in Tursek Castle and didn't go anywhere.

However, during the time he was waiting for Triss, he did not eat, drink, and have fun, but instead found Gede and expressed his desire to learn the swordsmanship of the Bear School.

"Isn't Wolf School swordsmanship good?"

After saying this, Gede suddenly recalled that when he was still an apprentice in the Bear School's headquarters, which had not yet fallen, he had read a book that mentioned:

The Wolf School's swordsmanship follows the standard witcher swordsmanship, unlike the Bear School and Cat School, which are improved upon the standard swordsmanship.

"I understand what you mean."

Demon hunters are also warriors.

A warrior's pursuit of martial arts improvement, like a scholar's thirst for knowledge, is endless.

But Gerd still said it in a regretful tone.

"However, the stronger the swordsmanship is, the better it is. The best swordsmanship is the one that suits you."

"The Bear School's physical training and Trial of Grass are different from those of other schools. They are designed to help Bear School demon hunters adapt to heavier weapons, more ferocious attack methods, and wear heavier armor."

"The physical training and Green Grass Trial of the Wolf School are incompatible with the Bear School. I'm not sure if you are suitable for learning Bear School swordsmanship."

What Gerd said makes a lot of sense.

Just as the Bear School cannot maintain balance on a single log like the Wolf School; the Wolf School cannot wield the two-handed sword as it pleases.

But just because others can’t do it doesn’t mean Lin En can’t do it.

Because he has a cheat.

Please, the properties panel, oh inner cover.

As long as you keep the Bear School Swordsmanship fixed on the attribute panel, you can not only quickly learn the master-level Bear School Swordsmanship, but also gain a specialty that greatly increases your strength.

It's profitable anyway.

and so……

"What you said makes sense, but I still want to give it a try."

Gerd was helpless.

Even after he said so much, he still couldn't stop Lin En's curiosity.

There's nothing we can do about it.

But it’s free, so why not give it a try?

Besides, persistence is common sense for the strong.

Even a genius needs to persist day after day.

However, before starting formal teaching, Gerd made a request.

He wanted to practice with Lynn.

He is also a warrior.

I am also very curious about who has better martial arts skills between him and Lin En.

Then the two of them came to the outside of the castle, found a deserted space, and stood at a distance from each other.
