From Witcher to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 24 Ciri, Long Time No See

"I heard about your parents when I was outside, I'm sorry." Mossak patted Lann's shoulder comfortingly.

"But I can feel relieved seeing you look so radiant now. I heard that you are still the champion of the tournament and the number one swordsman in Cintra?"

Lan En was modest: "It's just that Uncle Vitoni let me in, and I also used a little trick."

"Swords and knives will not deceive warriors. Strength is strength." The druid's tone was very gratifying. "If the Lannister knight is still alive, he will definitely be proud of you, my child."

"Then why did you come to see me, old man today? Do you want to review your previous lessons?"

"I really want to, but it may take some time. I actually have a lot of things to see you today."

Lan held his notebook and looked tangledly at Mossack who was about to go out: "But it seems that you are about to go out, maybe I should visit another time."

"It's okay, I'm going to teach Princess Sirira now. You can come together."

I didn't mind too much, Lan En's eyes lit up: "Then I also went to see Ciri, and I don't know why recently, I always feel that everyone is helping her to avoid me."

"Princess Sirilla is avoiding you? You don't know why?" Mossak was taken aback for a moment, and then he thought of what happened recently, showing a clear expression.

Lan En nodded: "I think maybe it's because the princess is going to get married so she avoids meeting the opposite sex, but it doesn't mean that I, who belong to the royal family, are also on guard."

Mossack nodded meaningfully: "It seems that you really don't know why."

The two walked in the corridor of the castle, and began to exchange pleasantries between words.

"Actually, the first purpose of my coming to you today is to ask you to help me find out if I have the talent for magic. I wonder what the testing process is like?"

"Have you become interested in magic recently?" Mossak was stunned for a moment, and then said regretfully, "I'm really sorry Lan, I can tell you with certainty that you are not a source of magic."

Lann was caught off guard by what Mossak said: "It can be seen so directly? No need to use a crystal ball to test talent?"

The druid patted Lann's golden head with some amusement: "Let's read less legendary novels. We spellcasters can perceive the chaotic energy between heaven and earth—the power of elements, and people who are born with magic sources also have the ability to be controlled by us. Perceived energy. I'm sorry to tell you Lane: you don't."

"Is it possible that they haven't awakened yet?" Lan En asked persistently, "For example, the dormant power in the blood can only be awakened after reaching a certain age or meeting special conditions?"

This sentence is somewhat suggestive, almost explicit, Mossak pondered for a moment, and replied:

"Lan, I don't know where you heard the rumors. What I want to tell you is that there are indeed some ancient bloodlines that carry great power. But these powers cannot be stimulated artificially. Not every Individuals with bloodlines can inherit power."

"Many times, we just carry the blood, not the strength."

Mossack said sighingly, and patted Lan on the shoulder: "It seems that we haven't seen each other for a long time. We really want to have a good chat. I'm a little curious about your enthusiasm for occultism."

"Of course, Mr. Mossack." Lan took a deep breath, "I have a lot of things I want to ask you."

The two soon arrived at the side hall dedicated to teaching, where the sullen Princess Ciri was being disciplined and sat on the seat by the nun. Since she got engaged, she has been strictly educated by the ceremonial nuns in the palace, and she can't see guests or play. God knows how happy she is when she knows that Mossak has come back to give her lessons.

It would be great if Lann could come here together. After he won the championship in the tournament, they haven't seen each other yet.

"When I meet Mr. Mossak, Your Highness, you should address yourself as 'teacher'. I know Mr. Consultant has educated you since childhood, but now that you are a big girl waiting to be married, some etiquette should be consciously started. complied."

Mammy babbled behind her, and Ciri nodded her head as if she was very sleepy.

Soon, the door opened, Shirley's eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly. Seeing the violent movements, Mammy frowned and hesitated to speak.

"Uncle Mossack! You are finally back, I miss you so much!"

The druid's figure appeared in Ciri's field of vision, still with that calm and elegant appearance.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, my princess, and I miss you very much." Mossak came in with a smile, and watched Her Royal Highness open her arms and rushed towards him without any princess etiquette.

The princess was very enthusiastic, and the druid also missed the princess very much, but the druid stood there smiling and didn't respond in any way.

At this time, Lan, who was half a body behind the druid, appeared from outside the door, and greeted Ciri with a bright smile.

"Long time no see, Shirley~"

The figure of Her Majesty the Princess suddenly changed in one direction and accelerated twice in the air, like a runaway wild horse brushing past the druid's clothes, raising a few strands of white hair.

Lan En, who had just entered the door, immediately felt something slam into his arms, and his body that had just stepped into the door was almost thrown out again.

"Wow, I miss you so much, Ran!"

Mossack still had a smile on his face. He put the book in his hand on the table and turned to the nuns whose expressions changed drastically.

"Ladies, we are about to start teaching here, please leave for a while if you can."

After inviting all the servants and nuns out as a teacher, there were only Lan, Ciri and Mossak left in the room.

When Mossak packed up his desk and was about to start his lecture, Ciri on the other side complained that the meeting was not over yet.

"Wuuu Lann, I miss you so much, they won't let me go out now."

"I miss you too, but what do you mean by sending Heifeng here? Are you angry with me?"

"Do you not like it?"

"I like it very much, Black Wind is a great horse."

"That's good, woo woo woo, I'm going to get married, I won't be able to ride a horse in the future, woo woo, I don't want to get married..."

Mossak smiled and looked at it for a while, and finally couldn't help coughing twice and interrupted: "Your Highness Sirira, I have to remind you that our class today is about to start, and the time is tight."

"Mossak, you just came back, why don't you take a rest."

The druid's smile remained unchanged: "No."

Lan En patted the little princess' gray head, which made the other party reluctantly pull himself out of Lan En's arms.

"Then...can Lane stay and attend class together?"

"certainly."
