Chapter 1399 1371. Delay?
Stewart looked awkwardly at his brothers in the Knights. This was the first time they had revealed their true views on his disability in front of him, a disabled person.
Although the knights in the Ember Knights were all high-quality young soldiers in Cintra, they did not understand psychology.
I just followed Lan En to fight back and forth without any disadvantages, and accumulated some experience in the ability to guess the enemy's psychology on the battlefield.
They didn't know how to comfort their disabled brother, and even subconsciously avoided talking about Stewart's physical disability.
Until today.
Until Lan En actually came up with an alchemical potion that he approved that could transform ordinary people into witchers.
For the Ember Knights who fully trust Lan En, they can finally talk openly to Stuart about his disability that is about to disappear.
These knights never thought that Stewart's disabled body was something ugly or a drag.
—They even appreciate this ‘trace of glory after completing the test’.
Stewart's always gloomy face was startled in surprise, and even his palm that was slapped froze in mid-air for two seconds.
But then, he immediately regained his composure.
".Whatever you say."
His missing chin, which had been replaced with an iron plate, trembled, and his voice tried to remain calm and unconcerned.
"Anyway, I just want to be first, bastard."
Valem and the other Ember Knights didn't care at all about Stewart's words, and just laughed teasingly.
Lan En and Geralt were relieved, because it was obvious that Stuart's gloomy and worrying temperament, which was close to self-destruction, had now dissipated a lot.
Although healing from psychological trauma takes time, it needs to be done slowly. But as long as this disability no longer restricts him and reminds him of the damage he has suffered.
Then it's just a matter of time before things get better.
"The potion that can help you survive the [Green Grass Trial] is called [Big Stomach King Vitality]. It is an alchemy formula I recently developed."
As he spoke, Lan patted the box held by Lincoln next to him.
All the eyes of the Ember Knights were focused on the small wooden box.
"I don't need to tell you much. I think with your enthusiasm, you should have already understood the steps of becoming a demon hunter from Master Berengar or elsewhere."
Lan En looked around at his knights, and everyone looked at him confidently.
As early as the last time they went to the Pontar Valley, the Ember Knights had even begun to systematically learn the knowledge of demon hunters.
Lincoln and others have even practiced the alchemy of demon hunters themselves and prepared things like [Corpse Bio-Oil] and [Curse Bio-Oil].
"No, there is no need to add more troops. We should even act as usual." Lan En said with a half-smile, "Demon hunters are so rare on the market, and now people have figured out the operation of extraordinary senses. Way."
"If you can even figure out this point, the terrain of this mountain and your patrol patterns should be clear by now."
"Go to the resident castle to investigate," Lincoln said behind Lan En, his tone had turned cold unconsciously, "Who are they from? What do they want to do?"
"I don't know who it is." Lan En said, turning around and asking casually, "How are the supplies from Temeria being delivered recently?"
Lincoln glanced at the commander: "Everything is normal. Three months' worth of supplies were delivered at one time. The most recent one was a month ago. Everything is fine."
Lan En nodded: "I think so. Foltest is not a reckless, stupid and impulsive person. If it were him, it would be too inexplicable."
"But at this point, there's no point in asking who it is." Stewart said coldly, "Now that we've learned about us and scouted the vicinity of a military castle, it's obvious what we will do."
Attack, attack and kill.
Stewart took a deep breath: "Sir, I suggest that the [Green Grass Trial] be postponed. A [Green Grass Trial] will take at least a week, and even after it is completed, the trialist will definitely have to wait for this week. Depleted and weakened by torture.”
"I remember that in Master Berengar's memories, the demon hunter apprentices he met at the beginning could not get out of bed and move around at least the third day after the trial was completed. The average time it took to return to normal exercise levels was one month. "
A person who is almost driven crazy by his disability and is just pretending to be normal is now actively saying that he will postpone the opportunity that can help him get rid of his disability.
Lan En glanced at him and then remembered that Stewart was actually a young man about the same age as him.
He is in his early twenties, but he has learned enough to be patient.
The rest of the Ember Knights, who were still looking forward to the [Trial of Green Grass], now calmed down and were just waiting for Lan En's decision.
Whether it's postponed or whatever, they don't have a problem with it.
"But it cannot be postponed." The young demon hunter said calmly and made a decision. "If there is nothing wrong, I don't care if this thing is faster or slower."
When he said 'this thing', Lan reached out and knocked the box in Lincoln's hand with his knuckles, making a thumping sound.
"But now, everyone is waiting for people and eager to hire people."
"The Dark Alley Gang in Novigrad seems to have healed their scars and forgotten the pain, and they are anxious to explode. The Aedirian side was already under siege, and now the internal conflicts are getting bigger and bigger."
"We can all wait, but the situation will not wait."
After explaining the current situation clearly, Lan calmly reiterated his decision to the Ember Knights.
"The [Green Grass Trial] will be carried out as scheduled."
"What about the group of people in the mountain?" Lincoln asked as he lowered his head and took a pen to record Lan En's order. "They have found out everything. Once they start attacking, they must feel that they are sure."
"Of course, you are here with Master Fongbongqiu, Qilin, and the two master demon hunters. I can't think of anything that can compete with you on a small battlefield. But the wizard summit on Xannide Island will be held soon, right?"
"You are not a wizard. To be honest, even if you are a wizard, I have never heard of any of them who know the art of cloning."
