The Journey of the Demon Hunter

I can matchmaking.

"I understand your concerns about your child, but your request is beyond my acceptable range."

You must prepare enough conditions.

"Hundred Flower Valley will not bow to anyone, Aden will not, and Livia will not, even if you promise to form an alliance with me to deal with Demawen."

My people will tell you where to meet at the right time, and I will arrange a secret meeting.

"Then it's really a pity." Mei Wei understood. "Demawen is still considering launching a punitive expedition against Hundred Flowers Valley. You will need an ally."

"No, I said, there is no discussion about this, we won't bow our heads anymore."

Don't trust anyone who tries to help you, especially other female warlocks.

The elf wrote the last line of words, and she paused for two seconds, spreading her palms across the table and quickly scanning it, and the table was back to normal again.

Mei Wei nodded.

"So, we don't have to talk anymore?"

"Yes." Francesca stood up, her voice cold and arrogant. "It's nice to meet you, Queen Mayvi, I'm leaving, I hope you won't negotiate with me on this funny issue next time."

Behind the bushes outside the house, the gleaming crystal ball gradually dimmed. Kayla took a deep breath and made a gesture, and the crystal ball disappeared.

Chapter 1602 Spreading Rumors

"Kayla."

"Enid, how is the talk?"

When Francesca walked out of this remote wooden house, Kayla, who had been waiting outside, greeted her. "I hope you have a good harvest."

"Is this the wish of Philippa and the whole assembly hall?"

"Of course." Kayla grinned. "Your territory is close to Livia. If you can reach an agreement with their queen, it will be good for you and the stability of the area along the Yarlung River."

"Really? Unfortunately, there is no good result. I guess, because of the guerrilla warfare, Mei Wei thought she could lead the army to defeat the Nilfgaards, and even thought that the defeat of Dermawin gave her enough strength to come. Order the lord of the entire east of Mahakam Mountain, between the Ponta River and the Yaluja River." Francesca showed a disgusted expression. "I must say that she was wrong. She thought I would bow to her because of Demawen's pressure and turn Hundred Flower Valley into a vassal state of Livia. This is whimsical, isn't it?"

"Yes." Kayla said. "Foltest's expansion behavior is enough for us to have a headache. We need a balanced north, not a dominance, let alone a hegemon. I'm glad you refused, and I think Philiba will think so too. . Let us go back to the banquet, we will disappear for too long and it will arouse suspicion."

"You know, Kayla, Mei Wei made a very impressive promise."

Keira laughed, and she slapped the elf on the ass. "Well, Enid, don't tell us these tongue twisters, you want some compensation, we will definitely find a way to give you."

The elf also laughed. "Sorry, I haven't reacted yet. I talked with Mei Wei for so long. Okay, I'll just say it straight. I want Schell to facilitate the export agreement with Kerviel for me to sell the elven handmade jewelry to the far north. Go."

"Oh, my God, you are so greedy, that's a lot of money."

"I am the queen, am I?"

Francesca went back to the courtyard while chatting with Kayla. Two female warlocks will not arouse suspicion, because everyone will talk to the same kind of people, but three female warlocks can't, and three people can plot something.

"Look, we seem to be late, and Princess Yada has arrived."

Kayla raised her hand and pointed to the courtyard steps not far away.

The atmosphere in the courtyard is warmer. The guests who were scattered in the courtyard in twos and threes are gathering around the steps of the castle gate. All eyes are focused on the door. The real host of the banquet is now the most powerful in the city of Vicima. People-Yada. Tamoria's white lily flag was flying, and the colorful flags on the guard's spear were hunting and hunting in the night breeze.

Perhaps not so prominent, the bright orange hair of Princess Yada is enough to attract the attention of many people. The princess inherited the beauty from her mother, Foltest's sister, but more people think that she looks more like her grandmother, Hidaris' Yada. Compared with the other ladies in the courtyard, Yada's attire is more wild. The hem of the red dress is cut above the knee, the high boots wrap the slender and strong calf, and the special tights are perfect. Highlighting Yada's exquisite figure.

The palace steward with his belly was using his iconic drake voice, reciting the names of the guests invited into the castle courtyard one after another. Some people took their female companions’ hands and walked forward to greet each other with Princess Yada on the steps. Most of these were royal family members or princes and dukes of the northern countries. Some were surprised that they were invited, and others admired them. In his eyes, quickly walked up the crimson blanket spread on the steps of the castle, and kept bowing to Princess Yada. These are the most influential citizens in Vickyma, mostly from the trade zone and the temple area.

There are many knights of the Knights of the Flame Rose here, but they are not guests, but guards. It is inevitable that no one will guess what kind of political signals Yada wanted to send out by doing so. But Yada proved a year ago that, like her father, she is not an aristocrat who will follow the rules and end up spending time in banquets, fashion, and finding a lover. She would always do surprising things, just like Foltest insisted on marrying his sister.

"I'm leaving first, and I'll see you in the castle later."

"See you, Keira. Oh, by the way, when does Philiba need me to tell her about the talks here?"

"Well, as long as you have time, since you haven't reached any agreement with Mei Wei, I don't think this is necessary." Keira raised her eyebrows. "By the way, I almost forgot, Philiba asked me to remind you that Ladovide has come to Vizima, you'd better avoid him."

"I thought Philippa was about to turn Ladovide into her puppet." Francesca frowned slightly.

"Who knows, Philippa said that Ladovide is an ambitious person, at least in terms of intelligence, who inherited his father perfectly." Keira shook her head. "After talking so much, I'm going to drink a glass of wine to moisturize my throat."

She looked at the lively castle gate and sighed softly.

"It's really lively."

Most people came here for this moment, to meet Yada and leave a good impression in her mind. Tamoria is gradually rising, everyone wants to have a good relationship with the future crown prince, no one will worry about betting the wrong person at this time, because Foltest only has one child.

But not all the excitement is related to Yada, as Francesca said, the banquet is separated, and the guests and the entourage will not stay in the same place.

A group of guards were surrounding the stone table in the garden. They were shouting and screaming, cheering and shouting for the people they supported. On both sides of the stone table, Gnaiya was breaking her wrists with another noble guard. Longyi's mouth was tight, with blue veins on the back of his hand. Opposite her, a strong guard was gritting his teeth, struggling to completely press down the arm of the seemingly weak woman in front of her, but the balance of victory But never leaned in his direction. He tried to break his hand back, but he couldn't help himself that he was being pressed onto the table by Gnaiya. In the end, with Gnaiya's force, his wrist was pressed down heavily.

There was a burst of cheers from the onlookers, and then the winner began to split the gambling capital equally, and the losers could only look at the piled coins in the corner of the table and leave them unwillingly.

"Anyone else?" Gnaiya raised her hand proudly. "I don't mind winning a few more Oren."

"You are very powerful, ma'am, the queen of the elves must have spent a lot of money to hire you." said a guard who was counting money.

"Maybe you have encountered an assassination, so you hired such a strong guard." Another person added. "People say that there is a lot of gold in the Valley of Hundred Flowers. It is all treasures of ancient elves. There must be many people who pay attention to the treasures. Some people say that Dermavin has not been able to find those treasures when he ruled the Valley of Hundred Flowers. I regretted smashing several cups."

"Ha, you must be joking." Gnaiya laughed, as if to hear the funniest joke. "What treasures can those poor elves have? I have served in Baihua Valley for a long time. A few years ago, they couldn't even cultivate land. In the gloomy underground caves, apart from bones and beasts, which are monsters, she did promise me a lot of rewards. , But it’s still far from what I expected. You don’t really think Baihuagu is very rich, do you? The queen is indeed very rich, because she is also a female warlock, a famous female warlock, and such people are very Rich, isn't it?"

"Is there no treasure?"

"Ha, you have to know that the queen sometimes even invests her own money in the construction of Baihua Valley. If she has a treasure, she doesn't need to go everywhere to promote Baihua Valley's wizard products." Gnaiya moved her fingers and listened. There was a crisp sound at the joints. "Let me say that she may be the poorest king in the north, and the people are still the fewest. Can you believe that the number of elves in Hundred Flowers Valley is less than 10,000, and there is no newborn. I estimate that For the next few decades, they can only stay obediently in that mountain forest."

Gnaiya recalled what Francesca told her before coming, and pretended to be as casual as possible. Of course, most of her are not pretending, such as the joy of winning. This reminded her of the first time she was in the Xueman Tavern, drinking, breaking her wrists, and then punching a mercenary woman who had forgotten her name. Although she won, she was beaten with a bruised nose and swollen face. She was suddenly happy that Francesca could arrange her to stay here instead of going into the courtyard with a smirk. Of course, it would be even better if Zelin was here.

"In this case, why don't you find a better employer? I believe that there will definitely be many earls or duchess willing to pay higher prices." A guard asked strangely. "Your power is worth the higher price."

"Uh." Gnaiya's face stiffened.

"It doesn't make sense. I saw two other entourages brought by your queen. One is a female nobleman and the other is a private doctor. They are all beautifully dressed and have several expensive jewellery on them. How can they be out of money?"

"Ha, this, it's actually very simple." Gnaiya scratched the back of her head. "She promised that female nobleman that following her long enough, she would seal her a territory and some elven people in Hundred Flower Valley. Although I don't know much about her past, I think a woman can't help it. Those who inherit other territories, except in Hundred Flower Valley. As for me, because she promised to make me the first knight, this is not something that can be bought with money."

"Oh my god, I understand why you did this."

"Otherwise, what do you think? Follow the old woman who doesn't know how long she has lived, and endure her rotten and unpredictable temper every day, and..."

"Ahem!"

A heavy cough made the rest of Gnaiya's words stuck in her throat.

"We should leave the guard, but I seemed to hear you talking about me just now?" Francesca stood behind the Dragonborn and looked at her coldly. "Tell me again."
