Lynn paid an extra Oren to the clerk in the store as a tip to let him look at the horses he brought.
Then he carried Syanna to the room he booked.
He put Syanna on the bed.
He sat on the floor and entered the meditative state again.
Although the demon hunter has not yet reached the state of fasting, he can use meditation instead of sleep if necessary.
More than an hour later, Syanna finally woke up.
She sat up from the bed with a confused look on her face.
Obviously he doesn't understand why he appears here.
"You wake up, you are the best among these newcomers."
Lynn ended his meditation, stood up from the ground, found a chair and sat down.
He kept a straight face and complained seriously.
"Why am I here?"
"You can't remember anything?"
Syanna held his head in his hands and tried to think back.
Finally recalled the memory before fainting.
"Wait, where are those people? You killed them all?"
"I drove him away."
Syanna is surprisingly difficult to deceive.
"That means death... but why did you save me? You could obviously ignore me."
"How could I ignore you? Your grandmother paid me a large sum of money, and I let you be kidnapped by those people and blackmail your grandmother later? What do you think of a witcher? We are also very trustworthy, okay?"
Syanna paused after hearing this, and then said again.
"You know I ran away?"
"Yes."
"When?"
"From the moment you pretended to sleep."
Syanna was startled for a moment.
"Then you also heard my conversation with those Nilfgaard people?"
"Exactly every word."
Syanna paused and said.
"In that case, then send me back... don't show that expression yet."
She clasped her fingers and said, "Look, Grandma asked you to take me out of Toussaint. You have already done it. The commission has been completed."
"Now, I want you to send me to Ms. Fringilla."
Lynn smiled.
He said in the tone of a business leader.
"My dear lady, do you think I am a fool, or do you think your grandmother is a fool?"
"Do you think your grandmother will buy this statement?"
Syanna shook his hands and said.
"You just need not to tell her, okay? Send me secretly to Ms. Fringilla and ask her to hide me."
"Ms. Fringilla is very rich, she will reward you well on my behalf."
"Okay, let's assume I agree," Lynn crossed his arms over his chest, "What then?"
Syanna was a little confused by the question.
"What then?"
Lynn spread his hands.
"You are the son of disaster. Although you don't believe it and I don't believe it either, the people who can't stand Toussaint believe it."
"Your grandmother is willing to risk offending Brotherhood of Sorcerers and hand you over to me."
"Even if Brotherhood of Sorcerers is angry, at least it can calm the people's resentment. The nobles and common people still support Her Highness the Duchess."
"But if you return to Toussaint and the people find out that you never left Toussaint at all, do you know what will happen next?"
Lynn paused and gave Syanna some time to think before he continued.
"Fringilla told me that Toussaint only looks calm on the surface. Outsiders who don't know the inside story think it is Land of a Thousand Fables, but in fact there is an undercurrent surging underneath."
"Toussaint's nobles are generally divided into two factions:"
"One faction is "Independence Faction" who advocates that Toussaint maintains the status quo. In addition to outsourcing national defense to Nilfgaard, it still retains its independence and does not submit to the emperor of the empire or join Nilfgaard's foreign wars;"
"The other faction advocates merging with Nilfgaard and turning Toussaint into "Annexation Faction", one of the provinces of Nilfgaard;"
"Contrary to "Independence Faction", "Annexation Faction" believes that Toussaint should actively join Nilfgaard's foreign wars in order to enter the ruling class of the empire and integrate with the Nilfgaard nobles to ensure the interests of Toussaint."
"Your grandfather, the previous Prince Toussaint, was actually assassinated by radical elements of "Annexation Faction"."
"Now the influence of Toussaint's "Independence Faction" and "Annexation Faction" are exactly equal."
"But if the granddaughter of Her Royal Highness the Duchess, the leader of "Independence Faction", returns to Toussaint when the Duchess has promised the people to deport you..."
"What do you think the people will think? What do you think "Annexation Faction" will think?"
"If you don't know, let me tell you how things will turn out:"
"Once "Annexation Faction" knows about your return to Toussaint, they will immediately incite the people to oppose Her Highness the Duchess and confront Ducal Guard who is loyal to Her Highness."
"Then, no matter how restrained Ducal Guard is, a crossbow arrow will definitely be shot out from nowhere, leading to a bloody conflict."
"As soon as you see blood, you can't control what happens next."
"The entire Toussaint will fall into endless chaos and riots. Under the deliberate instigation of thoughtful people, the people will completely stand opposite Her Royal Highness the Duchess and Ducal Guard, and Toussaint will be abruptly torn into two or even multiple camps."
"If the entire Toussaint is against the Duchess, then it is absolutely impossible for that small number of knights errant and Ducal Guard to suppress the riot."
"Even then, some knights errant and soldiers of Ducal Guard may join the opposite camp."
"And when this rebellion intensifies and the situation becomes serious beyond everyone's control..."
"Nilfgaard Army will enter Toussaint in the name of maintaining the stability of friendly countries and kill all those who do not obey Nilfgaard Army's orders."
"If your grandmother and sister are not dead at that time, your grandmother will get a cup of poisoned wine, and your sister will marry the emperor to ensure that the emperor gets a strong claim to Toussaint."
"In the end, Nilfgaard was able to completely dominate Toussaint and the nobles of "Annexation Faction" as he wished. Perhaps the emperor would leave some of them for the convenience of ruling and maintaining stability."
"But the vast majority of the remaining ones will definitely use various means to make their deaths leave this world under suspicious circumstances."
Perhaps Syanna received an elite education, but for a human being who has been familiar with Chinese and foreign history since childhood, and has played Crusader Kings for more than 6,000 hours, it is possible to see with closed eyes the future of Toussaint after the choices made by Syanna.
