Chapter 255: Sisterhood of Warlocks
After leaving this sentence, the portal was closed from the other side, and only a few gradually dissipated Ghost Knight corpses, as well as a larger number of Radanian Knight corpses were left at the scene.
There were only a few people left in the twenty-something Ridanian knights, and each of them was injured.
In contrast, wild hunting suffers much less.
It was not entirely caused by the strength gap between the two sides. It was mainly because the Ridania's knights did not expect to be suddenly attacked by unexpected enemies.
The equipment carried by these knights has been specially adjusted and is specially used to target spells and has weak resistance to physical attacks.
First, the sudden encounter caught them off guard, and second, the equipment was not right and there was a gap in strength in the end, which was natural that it would cause this tragic situation.
The only few remaining Ridanian knights looked at the bodies of their comrades beside them, and gathered together in a daze to exchange opinions.
"What should I do? Do I have to continue the task?"
"Execute it! Just a few of us injured can break through the protective barrier of Aritusa Academy? Dream!"
"Then...retreat?"
"Retreat! Go back and report the real situation to her."
Several knights supported each other and boarded the horses, one of them cursed in a low voice: "Damn the witch! There is no mention in the information that Aritusa can summon a fully armed ghost knight!"
‘Uh~’
Xin Sheng and Natiya both heard the knight's complaint and looked at each other with laughter and tears.
‘Brother, it’s just that you are not lucky and are involved in a battle that doesn’t belong to you, and it has nothing to do with Aritusa Academy.’
Watching the last few knights evacuate in a mess, Xin Sheng retracted his weapon and pulled Natiya, who had used too much force but did not hit the target, from the ground.
Ignoring Xiri, who was pale, Xin Sheng turned his gaze to the teacher and student of Eritusa who had not yet descended from the magic barrier.
Almost all sorcerers look young and have their own beauty.
...Although most of these beauties were made with plastic surgery using magic.
Seeing that the melee ended, several more mature sorcerers gathered behind the leader, as if asking her for her opinion.
After the battle, Xili, who had consumed a lot of energy, barely stood up with a sword, and his emerald eyes kept looking back and forth on Xin Sheng.
‘The witch hunter? Why is his fighting style completely different from the conventional witch hunter, from other schools?’
The sorcerer who presided over the barrier discussed with other college teachers for a while, and finally made up his mind.
"The crisis is lifted, let the barrier return to normal power."
"yes."
Under Xin Sheng's gaze, the color of the magic barrier covering the entire academy gradually faded until it was unrecognizable to the naked eye. Xin Sheng could only see some outlines through Hawkeye technique.
“Ha~ha~”
Dahuang came back with her tongue sticking out her tongue and shook her tail beside Xin Sheng, looking like she wanted to be praised. Daedalus also fell from the air and stood on Xin Sheng's shoulder.
Xin Sheng smiled and squatted down and rubbed the dog's head of Dahuang: "Good job, so are Pegas and Daedalus, thank you for your hard work."
“Du~Du~”
He ordered other teachers to take the students back to the dormitory, and the sorcerer leader with a proud figure slowly walked to Xin Sheng and the other two with a staff.
He nodded politely to the three of them, and the beautiful sorcerer, who was full of mature feminine atmosphere, introduced himself with a smile.
"Three, I am the current dean of the Aritusa College, Margarita Lux Antill."
"Can you tell me what happened to this sudden melee today?"
Xin Sheng scratched his head and said with some distress: "This is a long story."
"It doesn't matter."
Margarita waved her staff to open a portal that only allows single people to pass through, and could vaguely see a luxuriously decorated lounge connected to the other end of the door.
"If you don't dislike me, please go to my residence and talk more in detail."
...
Before, he had no time to be distracted during the battle and followed Margarita into the principal's private residence. Only then did Xin Sheng realize the amazing charm of the principal's whole body.
Since the Sinnied Island coup, a saying has gradually spread among the people.
All sorcerers have great ambitions, and the more beautiful the sorcerer is, the more dangerous it is.
Because no one knows how cruel things they will do for their ambitions.
However, Xin Sheng never put some individual cases on the entire group.
It is true that there are indeed many people in the women's arts that have strong political ambitions, and Tris is also blunt in this regard.
After the demise of the Warlock Council, the ambitious warlock Philippa Ehart led the establishment of an organization called the Warlock Circle.
The sorcerer gathering place is also known as the sorcerer sisters. The powerful sorcerers from the north and south of the mainland have joined them one after another under the solicitation of Philiba.
In Philiba's description, the sorcerer's sorcerer was established to maintain the status of the spellcaster, and this goal has a priority even higher than the countries and organizations that the sorcerer members each have allegiance to.
But I'm afraid only she knows what Philiba's true thoughts are.
Tris had mentioned this special sorcerer organization to Xin Sheng before, and the Academy Principal Aritusa, who has a beautiful appearance and a proud figure, is one of them.
According to Triss, Margarita's appearance is also among the beautiful women of sorcerers, second only to the elf sorcerer Francisca Fandabe, who is known as the world's number one beauty, and even has a full body.
Margarita took the lead in sitting down in the lounge, put down her staff to express her kindness, and at the same time reached out to signal the three of them to take their seats.
"If you don't mind, let me treat her."
Margarita is knowledgeable and recognizes Xin Sheng and Natiya at a glance, knowing that the witch hunter can speed up the recovery with magic potions.
But Xiri can't do it.
Xin Sheng and Natiya exchanged glances.
"All right."
Xin Sheng nodded as a representative and said, "Director Margarita, I have heard of you from Tris, and we are willing to believe you."
Margarita is an extremely rare member of the Warlock Sisters, who has no political ambitions.
She joined the Warlock Sisters just to protect the interests of the Aritusa Academy and had no interest in getting involved in politics.
Xin Sheng asked herself that there was no conflict of interest between her and Margarita, and she should not be detrimental to Xili.
"Oh~"
Margarita leaned close to Ciri to observe and sighed softly.
"Poor little Xiri, there are still so many disasters."
Xin Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Director Margarita, do you know Xiri?"
"Call me Rita."
Margarita pulled her hair down to the side of her ear back behind her, and her hands, which were flashing softly, stopped in front of Ciri's body, and began to restore her strength.
"I've only seen her twice."
"The first time was when the coup in Sinnied Island occurred, Geralt and Yennefa happened to bring her to Aritusa College to study, but unfortunately, due to the turbulent situation, it was not possible."
"The second time was the sorcerer gathering in the Castle of Menteka, the founder of the organization, Philiba Ehart, wanted Ciali to marry the princes of the Kingdom of Covell and Povis, thus creating a magical kingdom directly controlled by the sorcerer sisters."
‘It’s Philiba again.’
Xin Sheng was not interested in this very ambitious sorcerer.
Margarita still doesn't know that today's Knights of Redania were originally coming to the Aritusa Academy, with the purpose of plundering the precious collection of books in the Academy.
"alright."
After receiving treatment from Margarita, Ciri's face looked much better and her previous mental state also relieved.
"Now, let's talk about how this battle happened today, and who are the two parties participating in the war?"
