"Ciri?"

"Triss?"

Seeing the woman in front of her, Xili was also surprised.

"Why are you in Novigrad?"

"That's my question...what are you doing here?"

"It's a long story..."

As she spoke, Shirley looked at Liz, who immediately nodded.

"Then I'll go back and tell stories to the children first."

"Okay, please."

After saying this, Liz bowed respectfully to the two of them, then turned and left. At this time, Ciri turned her head and looked at Tris helplessly.

"To be honest, after taking care of children, I realized how naughty I was when I was a child... Children are really a headache."

"Wait? You have children?"

Triss stared at Ciri dumbfounded, feeling that she was completely confused. Ciri was stunned for a moment and waved her hand hurriedly.

"Ah, that's not what I meant. They were adopted. We met a few orphans before. Their parents died due to the war, so we took care of them for a while."

"That's it. It really shocked me."

Hearing Ciri's answer, Triss finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then she looked at Ciri.

"I have many things I want to ask you."

"No problem, let's find a quiet place."

Soon, the two of them opened a room in the guest room on the second floor of the tavern. Then Triss cast a spell to ensure that their conversation would not be eavesdropped, and then looked towards Ciri.

"Okay, tell me, Ciri, what have you been through in the past few years, why did you come to Novigrad? And what happened to the envoy of the God of Fire? What happened..."

"ah………"

Hearing Triss ask about the angel, Ciri also looked embarrassed. This thing was not what she wanted to be. Although she had been mentally prepared, hearing someone who knew her ask this still made Ciri feel embarrassed.

impulse.

"Actually, I didn't want to be that divine envoy. Mr. Fangzheng insisted on me becoming it..."

"Who is Fang Zheng?"

"Ah... let me start from the beginning."

It was too troublesome to explain everything, so Ciri simply explained to Triss exactly what happened before. After listening to Ciri's explanation, Triss looked embarrassed.

Confidence.

"You mean you were hunted by the Wild Hunt, and then traveled to another world on the way, met those people, and then they sent you back...?"

"Yes, it is like that."

"Then what happened to the divine envoy?"

"It's not Mr. Fangzheng who caused it!"

Speaking of this, Ciri also began to pour out her bitterness to Triss.

"I originally wanted to go back to Kaer Morhen when I come back, but Mr. Founder said that Geralt may not be in Kaer Morhen right now, and I might not be able to find anyone when I go back..."

"This is quite..."

As a friend who has a close relationship with Geralt, Triss also knows that this is not nonsense. After all, Geralt is a witcher, and he is always involved in some messy things. Who knows where he will end up.

Wherever you go, what will happen to you?

"But what does this have to do with you being an envoy?"

"Because Mr. Founder said that it would be too troublesome to run around like a headless fly looking for someone. It's better for me to just wait for Geralt here. As long as I make this reputation, Geralt will definitely come to Norvig."

Rui came to see me. At that time, we encountered the execution of witches in the square, so Mr. Founder took action against the Church of Eternal Fire."

"……………………"

After hearing Ciri's explanation, Triss looked confused.

"So, you did such a big thing and changed the situation in the entire Northland just to let Geralt know that you are here?"

"...That's pretty much it."

Shirley was also embarrassed, but what could she do? This thing indeed sounded too exaggerated, and it was not her idea!!!

"But when I go to the church to look for you, why are you always not there?"

"Because I'm not used to the church either. Triss, you didn't see the way those believers looked at me. It made me feel itchy all over. So I told them that if Geralt comes to the church to find me, please

He can just stay and send me a message."

"I see... So is the person named Fang Zheng running the Eternal Fire Church now?"

Thinking of this, Triss frowned slightly. In her opinion, the other party was obviously using Ciri as a puppet to manipulate.

However………

"No, Mr. Fangzheng also said that he was too lazy to care about this. He and Miss Miaojie had already set out to find a suitable place for the children to live."

"……………Aha?"

After hearing Ciri's answer, Triss felt like her head was a ball of mush.

"So who is in charge in the Eternal Fire Church now? Didn't Mr. Founder send someone to stay?"

"No, now we have just promoted a few people with good reputations within the church and asked them to manage the affairs of the church. According to Mr. Founder, as long as the Eternal Fire Church no longer persecutes other wizards and non-human races, they will

Just don’t care.”

"...But, what if they continue to attack wizards secretly?"

Originally Triss thought that the other party must have planted her own people in the Eternal Fire Church, but Ciri's answer really surprised her. If the other party didn't leave anyone behind at all, then how to ensure that the Eternal Fire Church could

Do you always act according to their wishes?

"That doesn't matter. Mr. Fangzheng said that if you don't obey, you will burn it again..."

As she spoke, Xili spread her hands helplessly.

Faced with this answer, Triss had no idea what to say.

"So, what kind of person is that man named Fang Zheng?"

Triss calmed down and looked at Ciri again to ask. Facing her question, Ciri had a complicated look on her face.

"How do you say this..."

Although she and Fang Zheng have been together for a while, Xili doesn't know how to describe this man. To be honest, Xili believes that he has unimaginable power, but his personality and performance really make it difficult for Xili

Think of him as a big shot. He talks nonsense and is always a bunch of lies. Shiri has never seen such a big shot. Although if what Fang Zheng said is true, then his identity is comparable to anyone in this world.

All great people must be great together.

But his performance is really... it's hard for people to believe the relationship between him and this identity.

"All in all, he is a very friendly person."

In the end, Xili still used a more moderate term to describe it.

"……………friendly?"

Even Triss didn't expect that Ciri would give herself such an ambiguous answer.

"Well, at least he won't look scary or deliberately pretend to be majestic like many big shots. As for the other things... I can't say."

Xili didn’t know what to say, she would just cry if she said too much!

Faced with Ciri's answer, Triss was also confused - are you kidding me? A friendly person can burn the entire upper echelon of the Order of Eternal Fire to charcoal with a raise of his hands, and also burn Radovid

The fifth generation was killed by a meteor?

Even the most daring warlock wouldn't be able to do such a thing!

"Can I go see him?"

Although she was confused, Triss still wanted to make her request to Ciri. She originally wanted to find a way out for herself and the warlocks in Novigrad. Originally, Triss originally hoped to be introduced by Ciri.

, I talked with the people within the Church of Eternal Fire who promoted this reform, but I didn’t expect that the initiator, Founder, didn’t bother to care about the church at all. In this way, I’m afraid I have to meet with the other party in person to discuss.

Moreover, as a warlock, Triss is also very curious about Fang Zheng.

What's going on with that 100-meter-tall flame giant?

And how to summon meteors to destroy the royal capital?

Where did all this come from?

What kind of power does that man have?

I originally hoped to get answers from Xili, but I didn't expect that I didn't get the answers, and there were more and more questions.
To be continued...
