Witcher: Master Kiliman’s Grand Ambitions-Chapter 55: What Do You Want, Witcher?

Princess Adda suddenly screamed and fainted, startling Triss who was standing nearby.
She hurried to the princess's side, using magic to probe Adda's physical condition.
She discovered that the princess's body was convulsing uncontrollably, perhaps because the stimulation to her soul was too intense, even her dress had become soaked with sweat.
"Kiriman, what were you just doing?"
"Her Highness has fainted."
Meanwhile.
In his soul state, Kiriman had already controlled his soul avatar to tightly wrap around that cursed parasite and bring it back together into his soul space.
That was his domain, possessing special powers granted by Deep Blue that could crush the souls of any other lifeforms, transforming them into the most fundamental soul energy.
At least that was the case for now.
As for the soul avatar, it belonged to expendable items that could be repeatedly produced.
No matter what kind of damage it suffered, it wouldn't cause much impact on the main body, only making his spirit weak for a while.
It was perfect for conducting various experiments and dangerous tests.
While controlling the soul storm to begin crushing the wrapped cursed parasite, he returned his consciousness to his physical body.
When he opened his eyes and saw Triss flustered and somewhat at a loss, he couldn't help but show a slight smile and comforted her:
"Don't worry, Lady Triss."
"This was me using special means just now to remove a bit of the curse from the princess."
"Her Highness is fine now, she just temporarily fainted due to the stimulation to her soul."
Hearing the witcher say this, the red-haired sorceress also breathed a sigh of relief. She had just used life detection magic and indeed found that the princess hadn't suffered any harm, her body was perfectly fine.
Now carefully sensing with magic, it was indeed as Kiriman said - the striga's curse seemed to have weakened slightly. Although the degree was minimal, the witcher's treatment clearly had effect.
This greatly interested Triss, who was a talented sorceress.
"Kiriman, how did you do this?"
Just as previously mentioned.
Whenever it involved soul-related magic, most were either dark magic or mysterious magic bestowed by deities.
Both types of magic were quite rare, and their use often required paying considerable costs.
But the witcher could actually complete such operations without anyone noticing, which was truly quite curious and made the sorceress unable to resist asking.
Upon hearing this, Kiriman only smiled without speaking, not answering Triss's question.
Joking aside, this was his secret - how could he casually tell others when their relationship wasn't intimate enough?
Moreover, mysterious men were more attractive to women - this was his long-standing experience.
After about one or two minutes.
Princess Adda woke up.
She first shook her head with dazed eyes, then seemed to remember what had just happened to her. Looking at Kiriman beside her, her heart pounded wildly.
She licked her somewhat dry lips, reached her hand to touch her chest, and said:
"Mr. Witcher."
"Your treatment seems quite effective. I feel the pressure in my heart has reduced."
"You may continue the treatment."
Kiriman nodded, preparing to speak.
Suddenly hearing Deep Blue within him deliver the prompt "Absorbed weak soul, soul energy +2", he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Just a single cursed parasite, after being crushed, could actually provide two points of soul energy - truly surprising.
It seemed this curse removal wasn't really hard labor - might even gain some benefits instead.
But upon second thought, he understood the reason.
It was said that when Princess Adda was still a striga, many commoners had died by this monster's hands, becoming terrifying legends of old Vizima times.
To protect his daughter, Foltest not only forbade anyone from harming the striga, but would even regularly send death row prisoners from the dungeons as food into the striga's nest.
If devouring human lives could turn one into a demon, the striga would likely be considered a major demon, having devoured no less than hundreds of lives.
This matter had caused much dissatisfaction among the nobility within the kingdom at the time, only suppressed by King Foltest's firm attitude, and later by Geralt the White Wolf breaking the curse.
He looked up at Princess Adda, casually counted, and discovered at least over a hundred cursed parasites existed within this young girl.
Perhaps the appearance of these parasites was inextricably related to those lives she had consumed.
………………
The treatment process lasted over two hours.
Approximately thirty-plus cursed parasites were completely removed by Kiriman and transformed into soul energy.
Finally waiting for the treatment to end, the red-haired sorceress didn't even bid farewell to the princess before hurriedly taking Kiriman away from the princess's garden, returning to the audience hall.
By now, the time was approaching dusk.
Mayor Velerad had already left.
Foltest was supporting his chin with one hand, gazing at the brilliantly colorful stained glass windows, lost in thought.
Every time he saw this king, Kiriman couldn't help but think of his famous saying.
A man falling in love with his sister is a natural and beautiful thing.
Although this king had many moral flaws, he was a brave man of true feelings, different from most greedy and insatiable kings.
Seeing Triss and the witcher enter the hall, Foltest's face immediately showed concern as he asked the sorceress:
"How did Adda's treatment go? Was it effective?"
Hearing this, Triss didn't conceal anything, concisely explaining the treatment effects and principles, then concluded:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"Mr. Kiriman's treatment is very effective."
"Estimated two or three more treatments will completely eradicate the curse from Princess Adda, returning the princess to normal."
Hearing his most trusted sorceress say this, the worry on Foltest's face visibly eased, even showing a trace of smile.
For this king who had lost his wife for many years, Adda - this regained daughter who greatly resembled his wife - was his most beloved family member, always had been.
He composed himself, lightly coughed, looked at the witcher below the steps, assumed kingly dignity, and said loudly:
"You've done well, witcher."
"You shall receive the king's reward."
"Speak, what do you want?"
Perhaps because Princess Adda's matter had truly made Foltest happy, he actually let the witcher propose his desired reward directly.
Facing such a pleasant surprise, Kiriman slightly started, immediately proposing what he had been contemplating during this time.
"Your Majesty."
"I wish to establish a witcher school outside Vizima city to train my own apprentices."
