The Divine Hunter Chapter 25: Meet each other
The Great Skellige Island.
In the Keldro Fortress built by the Quit family out of solid rocks from the mountains on the island.
In a bedroom decorated with seal skin specimens and shark bones.
The sunlight through the window illuminated a tall man with messy red hair and a powerful figure.
He sat in front of the window sill, smelling of sea salt, sea water, tar, and exhaustion. Her copper saucer-like eyes stared gleamingly at a wave of golden pool-like sea in the distance.
Suddenly, angry lion-like faces appeared on the surging sea. Heroic warriors wearing fur armor, horn helmets, and wielding battle axes charged among the black-armored army. They were caught off guard and were attacked again. The galloping heavy cavalry was knocked to pieces, felled in a pool of blood by the sharp blade swung from horseback, and lost its breath.
Many of the people he grew up with, such as Fukar and Tallent, who were as close as brothers... and even his own uncle, King East of Cintra, died in that fierce battle.
The corpses of countless warriors, the ruined walls, and the city of Sintra were all set on fire and turned into ashes!
"Brothers!" Kratz Ann Clete couldn't help but his eyes were red with anger, his nose was breathing heavily, and he clenched his fists and beat the table!
"I swear, sooner or later I will recover this blood debt from Nilfgaard for you!"
In a few months, the overall situation has been decided, and he should sail the dragon boat to the ocean of Nilfgaard and cause a **** storm!
Fortunately among misfortunes, Cintra's noble bloodline retained two, no, three seeds.
A look of relief appeared on Kratz's rough face, followed by worry!
Calanthe is currently raising her child peacefully in King Bran's palace on the island of Skellige.
I just don’t know where the little guy who was my son’s childhood sweetheart is hiding?
"Freya wishes that Ciri will return safely and be reunited with everyone. I am willing to renovate the temple for you!"
It seemed that the supreme being in the dark world listened to his voice.
Suddenly there was a strong wind in the bedroom!
"Boom!"
A dark square door suddenly appeared in the open space in front of the desk!
Ta-ta-ta!
The crisp sound of footsteps.
The lizard-skin high-heeled shoes hit the floor.
A pair of slender, slender and fair legs were exposed.
Kratz suddenly held his breath, and his round pupils reflected a petite beauty wearing a black leather skirt and dress!
The pale cheeks, tapered pointed chin, slightly curly black hair are like enthusiastic snakes jumping on the shoulders, and the beauty mark on the red lip makes the heart beat slower!
And she was holding a little girl less than 1.6 meters tall with her left hand.
She is not dressed like an ordinary girl, wearing a smart gray jacket and leather pants. Her short ear-length hair shines silver-gray in the sunlight, and her emerald green eyes are like a spring field.
Sparkling with excitement and excitement!
"Yennefer of Vengerberg, Ciri?! God bless you!"
"Good morning, Count Kratz Ann Clete of Great Skellige!" The sorceress smiled and bowed slightly towards him.
"Uncle Kratz! I miss you!" The little silver-haired kid jumped into his arms with hurried steps and hugged his waist heavily!
The man held her two small arms and lifted her up.
Laughing and hugging her around!
"Haha, Xili, my 'little daughter'! I knew you would come back safely! Let me take a good look...Tsk, tsk, after a few years of not seeing each other, the little girl has almost turned into a big girl!"
"Bless Freya! Bless the ancestors of Cintra and the sea!"
"Halma and Caris are here? I want to climb mountains and ride horses, fish and catch shrimps, skate and boat with them! I can't wait!" A pair of dimples appeared on the little girl's delicate face, "But I want to see you first Grandma!"
"They are still fishing on Faroe Island, and it will take a few days before they come back! As for your grandma, don't worry, she is in good health and living in an absolutely safe place!"
The man put her down and held her little hand, but his eyes couldn't help but turn to the sorceress and looked at her seriously, with a burning feeling inside.
"Yennefer, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you are still so dazzling... But why did you suddenly appear in my room? It's like... a sweet dream."
Kratz secretly sighed that she was old enough to be his grandmother, but she was even more beautiful than before they broke up.
"You are becoming more and more heroic." The sorceress pursed her lips. It was embarrassing to say that her coordinates in Skellige were only the bedroom of Kratz, the owner of Keldro Fortress, because of the old relationship in the past. .
Xili seemed to be aware of the strange atmosphere between the two. There was a hint of cunning in her green eyes. She rubbed her pointed chin with her slender fingers, not knowing what she had in mind.
"Let's talk about it," the man touched the girl's silver hair and spoke first, "how do you know this little guy and get together with her? Didn't she disappear after the war?"
"We have been in Novigrad for a few months." The sorceress smiled, "The main reason I brought her here this time was to meet His Highness Calanthe and to avoid the unscrupulous people who were chasing the little girl. !"
"A Nilfgaardian spy?" Kratz's pupils shot out a cold light.
"This is just one of them. There are probably spies from the King of the North Country all over the world. And the Skellige Islands far away from the mainland is a good place to hide from the wind."
"A wise move."
"So, Lord Earl, can you take us on the road immediately to Little Skellige Island to visit the queen? We will talk about the rest on the ship!"
……
"So, the Witcher White Wolf found Ciri?" Kratz was sitting on the wine table in the cabin, sucking a clam while looking at the rolling waves outside the window. A group of swordfish were jumping out of the sea. , stepping on the waves and moving forward with the moving dragon boat.
"This is the function of the law of accident." Yennefer took a sip of the mead and frowned. No matter how many times she drank it, she could not get used to the sweet taste.
"I belong to Geralt," the little girl next to the sorceress's seat bit off the head of the big lobster in one bite, with a piece of white meat at the corner of her mouth and a face like a kitten, and said firmly, "Geralt also Belonging to me, it's destined! So he can always find me! In Broklon Forest, Outer Rivia."
"Okay, naughty boy, everything you said is right!" The man laughed, turned to the sorceress, and asked seemingly casually, "So you have reconciled with Geralt? You have been living in the Witcher for a long time. The…uh…base?”
Yennefer was silent for a short while after hearing this, and combed her hair.
When there was no Ciri, she and Geralt would meet either in bed, or in the middle of quarrels and cold wars.
While living in Gawain's House... there was an important topic between her and the white-haired guy, Ciri, Ciri, or Ciri child.
The sorceress glanced at the "ugly girl" who was putting down the lobster shell and feasting on a grilled sturgeon with mint, golden sea salt and mashed radish. She subconsciously took off a napkin and wiped the grease from the corner of her mouth.
Ciri smiled sweetly at her.
She was like a wonderful mediator, effectively reducing the quarrels and conflicts between herself and the witcher. The sorceress and the witcher seemed to have become a pair of novice parents, clumsy, hard-working, but... Have fun taking care of this little naughty one!
She enjoys this peaceful life. But——
"No, not yet...I haven't forgiven him for his stupid and selfish behavior in the past!"
"What do you mean not yet? Are you checking him out?" Kratz's tone contained a hint of hope. Although he already had a wife and children, he occasionally felt lonely and hoped to relive his old dream with the sorceress.
Yennefer's next words gave him another heavy blow.
"Absolutely, future development depends on his performance."
What is the difference between this and compounding?
The Earl of the island lowered his face, took a deep breath, and his beard trembled.
For a long time, I listened in silence to the sound of waves lapping against the side of the ship.
"By the way, Kratz, I have always been curious, since Queen Calanthe is still alive, why doesn't she..."
"I understand what you mean... But she did this carefully, and she also had her own reasons! No, it cannot be called difficulties, it should be called surprise, a gift from God!"
"What do you mean?"
The man looked out the window. The dragon boat had arrived at the coastline of Little Skellige. By the dark and hard cliffs and rocks, several seagulls flew from the sky into the sea.
"Congratulations, little Xili, you will have an extra aunt in a month or two."
"Your grandma Calanthe is about to give birth."
"Bang!"
The half-eaten sturgeon in the little girl's hand suddenly lost its flavor. Her green eyes were as wide as copper bells, and the fish meat and saliva fell from the corners of her mouth. She fell into a state of surprise and sluggishness.
"Baby? Wow...Why am I so young again? I don't want to call a child aunt!"
Half a day passed amid the jokes and whimpers.
The dragon ship "Singing Horn" on which Earl Kratz was aboard docked at the low and flat port of Uliara in the south of the small Skellige Island.
The Earl led Yennefer and Ciri, as well as a group of bearded warriors with weapons on their bodies, stepped off the ship on the landing pedal, entered the dark and ugly harbor with accumulated silt, and headed north quickly. Arrive at the castle of Bran-an-Tulcek the Conqueror.
Although Brangui is the ruler of the archipelago, his residence is far less luxurious than the town of Keldro on the Great Skellige Island.
The castle is exquisite and small, with only two towers and a courtyard.
When Bran Ann Tursek and his nephew Kratz and his party arrived at the port, they received the news and greeted them early.
Although this old man is over seventy years old, he is still full of energy, with a ruddy complexion, his beard and hair shining as white as snow, and his body is as strong as any young man.
Wearing a bright red cloak, with a warrior's exquisite chain mail underneath.
He punched his nephew in the chest, who weighed over two hundred pounds, and laughed heartily.
Looking at the little girl next to Kratz, a trace of kindness appeared on her majestic face.
"Long time no see, Xiao Xili, finally willing to visit grandpa!"
"Grandpa Bran!" The little girl once again performed the swallow's throw into the forest, burying her soft little face into the old man's chest, avoiding his "beard blow" from the air to the ground, and then raised her head. , squeezed out a few tears from the corners of his eyes, "Wow, Grandpa East is gone, and my family is gone. I only have you and grandma!"
"Haha, the young lion of Cintra, the petrel of Skellige, I knew that fate could not overwhelm you! You will definitely return safely!
"But grandpa was wrong. Grandpa should have personally led Skellige's armada to crush those Nilfgaard beasts!" Bran hugged the little girl tightly, with a cold light shining on his weather-beaten face, and his voice The low and powerful voice is like chewing steel, "But I swear, from now on, as long as you stay in Skellige for a day, no one can hurt you even a hair!"
"Woo woo..."
"This..." The old man looked at the sorceress with a trace of scrutiny in his eyes,
The sorceress just smiled and nodded at him.
"Yennefer," Kratz explained on his behalf, "she protected and taught Ciri for a long time!"
"Thank you, Ms. Yennefer," the old man held Ciri's hand tightly and led a group of people towards the castle. "Come, let's meet her together..."
"She couldn't wait any longer."
……
A few people walked through the magnificent hall and the deep and winding corridors and stairs.
He came to a magnificent and magnificent bedroom on the second floor, with a burning flame in the fireplace and an extremely warm bedroom.
Standing by the window is a woman with a plump figure, her hair tied into a bundle behind her head, and her slightly rounded cheeks exuding a maternal glow.
She was wearing a loose and warm blue cotton jacket that was similar to pajamas.
The round belly under the coat is extremely eye-catching.
She stroked her belly and stretched slowly, and suddenly turned her face with feeling.
For a moment, he met the eyes of the little girl who had just walked to the door, and his two pairs of emerald green eyes burst into tears of surprise and emotion.
"Xirui, my good granddaughter!" The woman moved slowly towards the door with a shy belly, "Come here quickly, let grandma kiss you!"
"Grandma, woohoo!" The little girl let go of King Bran's hand and rushed over.
However, the moment he was about to touch the woman, he suddenly stopped and stood in front of her, with an expression of joy and curiosity on his delicate face.
Calanthe's somewhat swollen hands wrapped around the girl's hands and gently kissed her smooth forehead, while Ciri kissed the side of the woman's face.
The two lords of the islands and the sorceress outside the door quietly watched this heartwarming scene.
"Xili, my darling, after hearing the news of your disappearance in the past few months, I was worried to death. I was afraid that something would happen to you and I would be the only one left in this world. ."
"No, Geralt, Ms. Yennefer," she turned and glanced at the sorceress at the door, "and everyone in Gawain's House, they protect me very well! Just like a family member Take care of me." Xili's face shone like white jade, and her eyes showed gratitude.
"They didn't force you to become a witcher?"
"I would like to, but they don't agree!"
"The Master Demon Hunter is true to his word! Anyway, just come back and our family is finally reunited!"
"Grandma... we will never be separated again... and I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so naughty and made you angry." Xili's delicate voice made a firm voice,
There was a hint of surprise on Calanthe's round and delicate cheeks, and then she touched her little head with relief.
Unexpectedly, after experiencing the disaster of this war, the young lions of Sintra finally grew up.
Know how to be considerate of your elders!
She suddenly felt grateful to the witchers!
And Xili couldn't help but stretch out her slender white fingers, as if she wanted to touch her swollen belly, but she was worried about hurting the little creature inside.
He raised his head and asked in a low voice,
"Does my...aunt live here?"
"Gee, you won't know until you touch it." Calanthe grabbed her hand, put it on her warm belly and gently rubbed a circle. Ciri immediately held her breath, her emerald green eyes filled with brilliance. Continuously, he stuck out his tongue, gasped, made various wonderful expressions on his little face like the grimaces he learned from Oakes, touched and put his little ears up.
"Wow, I heard her heartbeat."
The corners of her mouth curved slightly, and a touching smile appeared - a feeling of blood connection arose spontaneously, and an indescribable joy surged into her heart.
Finally, in addition to her grandmother, Geralt, Yennefer, and Roy, she has another relative in this world!
But beyond that.
There is also an indescribable and wonderful connection between myself and this child.
It contains indescribable power.
It is very similar to how she feels about Roy, the same qualities, the link that makes people close to each other.
On the other side, the sorceress who was watching saw another scene in her eyes.
The moment the lion cubs of Sintra hugged Calanthe, the surrounding chaotic energy suddenly became unusually active. The colorful elements seemed to be strongly stimulated and gathered around them, accumulating more and more.
The rich energy is enough to cast a powerful destructive magic!
And it is still transforming towards qualitative change at a high speed.
"Ciri!"
The sorceress suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the girl's arm, and amidst everyone's astonishment, she took her away from Calanthe. Suddenly, the rapidly gathering chaotic energy dispersed.
She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled apologetically,
"Your Highness Calanthe... For safety reasons, it is best for Ciri not to get too close to you. ~IndoMTL.com~ What do you mean?" The pregnant woman suddenly raised her eyebrows in displeasure and said with a majestic expression The voice asked, "Ms. Yennefer, can't I get close to my little granddaughter?"
"No, no, you misunderstood, this is not my request. You should know that your family, Fiona and Ray Allen, have ancient and noble blood, and this blood contains Powerful enough to overturn the world."
"Xili, and the child in your belly, if I'm not wrong - have inherited this bloodline, and have no ability to control it so far! If they get together, I'm afraid they will interact with each other and something unexpected will happen. Changes will hurt your body!"
"What?!" Calanthe's expression suddenly changed, and a scene from the past emerged in his mind - his daughter Pavetta's body was suspended in the air, showing off her power. "But Xirui has never shown any power, and the child in my belly has not yet been born, so I don't feel anything abnormal!"
"In fact, the little girl's magic talent is extremely outstanding." Yennefer glanced at the setting sun outside the window and changed the subject, "It's getting late. Everyone, how about we talk about it at the dinner table?"
"Your Royal Highness, I still have many questions to ask you."
