"Wait a mininute!"

"This way, there is one empty seat left. Who is the twelfth sorceress?"

Hearing this, Philippa couldn't help but reveal a mysterious smile:

"This is the first issue to be resolved at the next meeting. In two weeks, I will tell you who will sit on this twelfth seat, and then we will consider how to get that person to accept it."

"I'm sure you will be surprised. Because she is not an ordinary person..."

"As for whether she dies or survives, is destroyed or reborn, it all depends on the angle you look at her."

After leaving such a curious ripple to the four sorcerer sisters who participated in the meeting through projected illusions, this secret meeting with only the sorceresses from the north and south ended...

As the light ball disappeared into the air, only the four people who had reached an agreement were left in the room.

"Philippa, will they come to the next meeting?"

Hearing Triss's worries, Philipba couldn't help but smile confidently and said calmly:

"Yes, they are just like us. They are not fools, let alone idiots who want magic to disappear. They all understand that uniting for the rights and status of magic, as well as their own survival, is the best choice."

...

Fourteen days passed by in a blink of an eye.

On this day, a portal consisting of two black marble columns located in a courtyard of the castle flashed one after another.

In addition to the eight people who attended the first meeting, there were three new people who came to participate in the secret meeting.

Fringilla Vigo, recommended by the Nilfgaardian sorceress Ashley, is an elegant sorceress with iconic short black hair and green eyes; another pure-blood elf sorceress recommended by Francesca

, Ada Emin from the Blue Mountains.

Among them, what surprised everyone the most was that Yennefer from the Nilfgaard camp was missing from Sanide Island and was thought by Sabina, Keira and others to be Yennefer from the Nilfgaard camp? She was also forced by Francesca

? Arriving at Montecalvo.

Under a head of slightly curly black hair, slightly tired blue-purple eyes, Yennefer's every move is eye-catching.

However, only she knows? For the past month and a half, Francesca has been sealed in a small jade statue by Francesca's sealing technique.

And the other party's first request after dispelling the magic? It was to recommend him to join this secret organization composed of sorceresses.

And why did she come to attend the meeting? There is only one reason, and that is that the people in this organization are very interested in Shirley!

She would like to hear it herself, what do these people want from her daughter?

Looking at each other with suspicion? Everyone came to the room where the first meeting was held, and took their seats one after another on the seats with name tags and sphinx-shaped armrests carved on them. Only one seat without a name tag was left vacant.

seats.

At the beginning of the meeting, everyone first discussed the current war situation.

But? This was quickly interrupted.

"I'm not interested in politics, I just don't want my students who have worked so hard to become mercenaries because of this war. They are blinded by so-called patriotic slogans. So, what we are talking about here is not a topic of war.

? But the future of magic." Margarita, the principal of Arethusa, said.

Nodding, Sabina echoed:

"The future of magic is determined by the status of wizards, which is our status and our importance. The choice we face seems to be very simple: either give up our status and live in seclusion in the ivory tower; or choose to serve."

"Or serve as a servant and serve the king humbly?" Triss shook her red hair and continued: "Once the Nilfgaard Empire conquers the northern countries, this will be what the great emperor will give us.

status."

"If things get to that point, we have no choice."

Looking at everyone present, Philippa said in an emphatic tone: "Because we can only serve magic, not a certain king or emperor, nor their political activities. Dear ladies, we established this

Organizations are not designed to adapt themselves to today’s political situation and world changes, nor are they designed to adapt to the current situation and survive in the current situation.”

"Our organization must take the initiative to influence the direction of events while maintaining a low profile. In order to achieve this goal, we must do whatever it takes!"

"So, I thought of a plan, an empire that would grow from the current Kingdom of Kovir and be ruled by magic, enough to compete with Nilfgaard. We only need to let the crown prince of Kovir marry a sorceress.

Can take the empire into his own pocket."

When Philippa finally revealed her plan, the whole room suddenly fell into silence.

"Yes, sisters, you heard it right! Right here, on this empty seat, we will welcome the twelfth sorceress, and then we will send her to the throne!"

"This is indeed an ambitious plan, and it is indeed not a waste of your precious time." After saying "yes" twice in a row, Sile Tanshavier, who looked calm, broke the silence with words full of sarcasm:

"It really proves the legitimacy of the establishment of a secret organization. Only this impossible mission can make all our actions seem to have nothing to do with the word noble."

"Why do you say it's impossible?"

"Philippa, although I know that your ambition is always exposed to the air without any concealment. However, I never thought that you would be so whimsical..."

After a pause, Sabina sighed and then said:

"No king will marry a sorceress, and no country will allow a sorceress to sit on the throne. Ancient traditions will hinder your plans. Although the tradition is stupid, it is still a tradition."

Margarita on the side added:

"In addition, there are also "technical" issues. The sorceress who joins Kevir needs to abide by many rules, both from our standpoint and from the royal family. And she must understand her identity, use it flexibly and not

It will arouse no one’s suspicion. There is no need for guidance or someone behind the scenes.”

"The most important thing is that Crown Prince Kevir must choose her as his wife, and we cannot put pressure on him openly."

"So, if the Kingdom of Kevir had the opportunity to choose freely, who do you think they would choose? Of course, a girl who comes from a royal family with pure blood that can be traced back to several eras. And she must be young and capable of giving birth."

"And these prerequisites exclude everyone here, especially the last one, which directly rejects all sorceresses. In other words, even if the people of the Kingdom of Kovir go crazy and want their future king to marry a sorceress

, we can’t find a suitable candidate.”

"No, you are wrong. We have a very suitable candidate."

After a pause and attracting everyone's attention, Philippa curled up her lips and said:

"She is very young, with royal blood flowing in her body, and has the ability to give birth. This girl has outstanding magical talent, and as the prophecy said, she is a descendant of ancient blood. Even if no one guides or controls her, she

She can also play her role calmly, because that is her destiny."

Having said this, many people have already understood who Philippa's target is.

"You mean this girl is..."

"Yes, she is the person you think of, the daughter of Pavetta, the princess of Cintra, and the granddaughter of Calanthe, the lioness of Cintra, Cirilla!"
