The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 54 Are you also the Western Idea King?

Because when the witcher moves, there is almost no sound of footsteps.

So even if the attackers arranged many sentries, it would be difficult for those sentries to discover them as long as Lynn and Geralt did not actively approach the area illuminated by the torches.

Once close enough, Lynn began to observe the attackers' camp.

The entire camp is not big.

Some fences and chevaux de frise were assembled with wood around the area as simple defensive fortifications.

Dozens of tents were erected in the center of the camp.

It was clear that the person leading these attackers was a very cautious person.

Not only were there sentries stationed outside the forest, but even near the fence, Lin En saw several patrolmen walking around with torches.

In addition, several bonfires were lit in the camp, and twenty or thirty armed men with different clothing styles were sitting around the bonfires roasting food.

After observing for a while, Lin En had already made up his mind.

He patted Geralt's shoulder gently and mouthed to Geralt.

"Geralt, we can go now. Let's retreat. I've come up with a plan."

……

At this time, in the largest tent in the forest camp.

Judd Carradine sat alone on a crate that served as a stool.

The desolation in the tent contrasts sharply with the bustle around the campfire outside.

But Judd didn't seem to feel deserted or lonely.

He just drank the broth in his hand.

Suddenly, he was stunned.

Because he saw a pair of cat's eyes reflected in the broth that was as thin as water.

The wooden bowl fell to the ground and the soup spilled all over the floor.

A mercenary outside the tent heard the noise inside and hurried in.

"Boss?" He was stunned when he saw the scene in the tent.

"I'm fine." Judd waved his hand, stopping the mercenary from cleaning up. "Have the people we sent to contact King Reid's men returned?"

"not yet."

"Okay, I understand, you can get out."

When the mercenaries left, Judd picked up the wooden bowl and set it aside.

Memories of the past can't help but emerge in my mind:
He is an orphan.

Just like the millions of orphans who lost their parents due to war, natural disasters, etc.

Judd had long forgotten his memories before becoming a witcher's apprentice.

He only remembered the nightmarish training and the instructor's strict, even abusive, requirements.

Day after day of sword and physical training tortured Judd to the point of almost going crazy.

The mentor's unpredictable, radical and violent personality made Judd feel as if he was in hell all the time.

Later, Judd finally passed the Cat School Green Grass Trial, which had a survival rate of only three in ten.

But I don’t know if it’s because of the Green Grass Trial or if it’s just his nature.

After becoming a formal demon hunter, Judd found that he had become as aggressive, cruel, impulsive and erratic as his mentor.

and so.

He killed his mentor.

He could have saved him during a demon hunting commission.

But Judd watched helplessly as his mentor was torn apart by the monster like a rag doll.

But at this moment, something incredible happened.

Having his mentor's blood on his hands seemed to turn on a strange switch in Judd.

It made him calm down instead.

Judd wondered if he was the only normal person in the cat school.

The physical mutation caused by the Green Grass Trial that nearly killed him now made him feel very well. Paranoia and extreme impulsiveness... these characteristics of the Cat School seemed to have vanished with the death of their mentor.

His mind was also clearer than ever before.

So Judd set a goal for himself.

He doesn't want to spend his life being discriminated against and looked down upon by others.

Risking life and limb for a few coins, sometimes not even that much, and all I get in return is a pitchfork...

I stink all over, not to mention the girls, even I hate myself...

He didn't want to live a muddled life, he wanted to live a decent life...

So, Judd had a plan!
A big plan!

He first recruited a group of ruthless people and formed his own gang.

This step is not difficult.

In this damn era, many people are willing to sell their labor in order to make a living.

If you can earn money while having enough to eat, then it is not impossible to sell your conscience as well.

Once you have a gang, you have to work.

Judd positioned his team as mercenaries. After all, although this line of work is dangerous, it also makes money quickly.

He and his accomplices are willing to do anything as long as they are paid.

Relying on his stronger physical fitness than ordinary people after the witcher mutation and the outstanding swordsmanship of the cat school, Judd has almost never encountered an enemy he cannot deal with.

Soon, they made a name for themselves in the mercenary business.

With fame, more work will naturally come to you.

To Judd's surprise, he discovered that he actually had some business acumen.

He did not spend all his earnings on women and alcohol like his men did.

Instead, it is used for illegal business.

Human trafficking, smuggling narcotic powder, running a women's branch... He doesn't care whether the money is dirty or not, nor does he care whether it is against the law. He will do anything as long as he can make money.

This allowed him to quickly accumulate a lot of wealth.

This really excited Judd.

Once he saves enough money, he won't have to live on the edge of death for the rest of his life.

This also means that he is one step closer to the decent life he wants.

This big deal was supposed to be the last one in Judd's previous plan.

Once this deal is done, he can focus on his more profitable illegal business.

What Judd didn't expect was...

The attack launched by his men and the soldiers sent by King Reid ended in failure.

So when Judd and his remaining accomplices returned to this temporary camp...

He sent a message to King Ryder's men:
——The enemy is much stronger than we said before. I will not do this mission unless I get more money.

Perhaps because of his demon hunter mutation, Judd is not afraid of the king and nobles like most ordinary people in this world.

In his eyes, kings and nobles were not superior because of their abilities, but they just happened to be born into royal and aristocratic families.

He was not afraid that a temporary price increase would displease King Reid.

Even if you don't ask for a higher price, it's useless to do the task well.

Because you are nothing in the other person's eyes.

These upper-class people have everything they need since birth, so how could they look down on the lower-class people who need to work to fill their stomachs?
at this time.

A sharp cold wind blew into the tent.

Shouts and curses came one after another.

Judd was startled at first, then he grabbed the steel sword and rushed out of the tent.

The entire camp was in chaos at this time.
