Release that Witch Chapter 542: A long journey


"Sister, we're here," Kohl Kant dashed into the cabin.

"I've told you twice, don't call my sister this time," Edith glanced up at him, "You forgot?"

"No ..." Kohl trembled. "No, I remember."

"Who am I then?"

"I, my secretary official, Ms. Edith."

"How about you?"

"Father ... No, the ambassador sent by northern region Duke Calvin Kant."

"Very well, remember not to make a third mistake," Edith stood up, moved a few stiff hands and feet, walked out of the cabin, "call the full members of the envoy regiment, we go to the inner city."

This is a small trick that Edith usually plays. She always likes to observe her negotiating object behind the scenes and come to the negotiations after getting the initial impression. Apart from being able to plan ahead, she can also give the other party a fresh feeling. If the target is male, chances are you will be interested in yourself.

She never shy away from her identity as a woman, but instead sees it as a communicative advantage.

Since it has the title of Pearl of the Northern Lands, it cannot be wasted naturally.

"What about ... the skull?"

"Of course, put it on the boat first, Is it possible, do you still want to go into the bedroom with that thing?" She poked, "They're stink."

Walking down the trestle bridge, Edith noticed that the ships in the canal were extraordinarily numerous, and many people gathered on dock. Most of them were carrying backpacks, and they looked neither like slaves nor merchants. This made her quite curious. Apart from the above two types, few people would travel far in spring.

She recruited an attendant, "Go and ask where they plan to go."

"What does this have to do with us?" Kohl puzzled.

"Since Roland Wimbledon has occupied the city, there will always be some new policies promulgated to announce his authority. This can also reflect his temperament from the side, of course, it has something to do with us." Edith smiled, "In addition you You can spend a few gold royals and ask Mouse to collect them for you, but I prefer to hear the news myself. "

"Yes, is it ..."

"Look more, think more, Lord Ambassador," she said. "This is a rare opportunity."

After entering city gate, pedestrians on the streets suddenly increased. Simple stalls were set up on both sides of the road. Businessmen drank their goods and shouted selling noises one after another. Edith came to Kingdom Capital with his father a few years ago to participate in the adulthood ceremony of the five princesses. The image of the city and memory has not changed much, and it is still lively.

If it ’s Eternal Night City, it ’s not a festival or a celebration.

Suddenly, a preacher on the street caught her attention.

"Wait a while," Edith stopped the team from advancing, and took Kohl to the crowd of people.

"Do you saw wood? Do you build grey bricks? Do you take care of cattle and sheep? As long as you have the skills, you need the talents of Your Majesty Roland! Go to Western Region, Your Majesty is building a new Kingdom Capital -- Neverwinter City there! Your talents will be Bring yourself rich rewards! "

Talent? Edith pondered it, it is an interesting statement ... However, the new Kingdom Capital is What does it mean? Neverwinter City? Does Western Region have such a city?

Ten dozens of steps forward, another circle.

"witch is not guilty. This is the penitent confession written by High Priest before he was sentenced to death," said another preacher waving his document/secretary. "They may be your loved ones, your daughters, your sisters! If If you are still afraid of them, just send them to Neverwinter City! There, they will be taken care of, if you are not willing to leave them, you can go together! Your Majesty promises, witch's family will get a shelter shelter from the rain Home and decent work! "

"High Priest was executed?" Kohl's eyes widened.

Edith frowned. If this is the new policy of Roland Wimbledon's, it would be a bit too public. Isn't he afraid of retaliating like Church Thunder? It's not a battle between noble, but an endless heresy war.

I do n’t know if it is a blessing or a curse to be loyal to such a king.

It took one hour to walk through the street leading to the inner city, and she found that there were such speakers everywhere along the way, almost all the things after Your Majesty conquered Kingdom Capital were compiled into a book and repeated, any one came to Kingdom Capital People, as long as listening to the street for a long time, can understand these changes, even Mouse need not find.

"Sir, I have asked clearly," the attendants who was ordered to probe the news panted to catch up with the team, "they are all ready to go to --"

"Neverwinter City, right?" Edith interrupted.

"You ... all know?"

"I won't find the hotel first, let's go to the palace to submit envoy document/secretary," she bottom of heart has a hint of bad hunch, "Now, hurry up!"

...

"What did you say?" Kohl wondered, "Your Majesty Roland has been away from Kingdom Capital for a week? Did n’t hold the ceremony?"

"This is what the receptionist said," attendants reported. "Originally, Your Majesty left a chief minister named Barov Mons to take care of matters, but he also left Kingdom Capital yesterday. Now in the palace except for the servants , No one is living. The receptionist also said that if you want to negotiate with City Hall, he can tell you. "

"No need," Edith said coldly. She did not expect that the premonition was fulfilled, and she kept running all the way, but ended up emptily -- Roland actually planned to relocate Kingdom Capital, leaving this great city in mind, go to Western Region to rebuild a new city! What was he thinking in his head? You need to know that cities of this size have not been built in impossible for 30 to 40 years!

"What shall we do?" Kohl whispered, looking at the members of the envoy group who were in a daze behind him.

She calmed her face, and said something after a while, "turn back to dock, we also go to Neverwinter City!"

"Anyway, people have already left, we don't need to hurry so," Kohl said bitterly, "I haven't taken a bath for a week, and I think I've almost got lice on my body.

Edith sniffed the collar and smelled a strange smell. She finally sighed, "then find a hotel to rest for a night, and set off tomorrow morning."

However, the next day when the envoy group arrived at dock, they found that their ship was burned to the point where only the skeleton was left.

"What's going on?" For the first time, Edith felt that his head was not enough.

"cough cough, don't get angry, Ms. -- Edith, look more and think more ..." Kohl waved a passerby, "Is there a fire in dock?"

"Ah, you say this, "the other side explained enthusiastically," I don't know which **** one hid the body on the ship, and the smell of the stolen Mouse smelled. You don't know, everyone is particularly sensitive to this thing. After all, there has been an outbreak of evil in the city more than half a year ago, which was caused by the corpse spread by Church. In short, to deal with this thing, only a fire is safe. The captain has been arrested by the guards for questioning. Why, do you know him? "

Edith didn't know what expression answer should be used for a while. After a long time, I said, "Thank you, I don't know."

It looks like I have to find a new ship again, she thought, maybe this journey of allegiance will not go as smoothly as I thought ... right?
