In Yennefer's memory, Kaer Morhen was relatively desolate . Thanks to Geralt, it gave her some comfort . This place still gave her lots of wonderful memories .

Yennefer hailed from a poor family . She was rather accustomed to hards.h.i.+p . She furthered her education at the Aretuza Sorcerer Academy on Thanedd Island . Talent alone was not enough to rectify the hefty tuition fees .

Yennefer was a diligent student, earning respect from other students and teachers . Upon a successful graduation, she crafted her reputation, step-by-step, eventually becoming a known alumnus .

Yennefer did not have particularly high hopes in life . She was nothing like the pampered, high-maintenance Keira, and life of the upper aristocracy . Yennefer was more down-to-earth . She pursued more sincere sentiments, such as heartfelt affection .

Perhaps many would not believe that Yennefer cared for Geralt that deeply . She always seemed put off and cold . Her tongue was also particularly harsh, unlike the gentle and considerate Triss who lay upon his shoulder like a little bird . In fact, Yennefer was actually the more willing of the two to bear Geralt's child . She was constantly researching for more methods of conceiving a child . She was also more than willing to confront hards.h.i.+p with Geralt and live a life that others sorceresses would never wish upon their most bitter of enemies . . .

Women who took hards.h.i.+p to the gut like champions were far better than women who only came around when there was pleasure to be given . When a woman refuses to abandon you even when you are at your lowest, that was true love .

Such love was highly scarce . To most, it was an outlandish thought . No one could possibly end up at the bottom in such a way and still have someone stick around with them .

Besides, n.o.body could completely dismiss status, wealth, abilities . Some dark corner of your heart would still call out to them . You can't purge these traits out of your life and then say that pure love was all you needed . At most, they sounded like sweet nothings when uttered in epic ballads and poems . Yes, love a guy, even if he was dirt-poor, or bound to be the dirt beneath the figurative heels of dirt . If a turn of events actually occurred, we'll see if any traces of this so-called "pure love" actually remains .

When a person loses everything, he would see how pure his relations.h.i.+p really is, or if things had been of a more . . . materialistic nature .

Some weirdos might be turned on by how "she did not love me . " Who knows, all this while, they had merely gone through the motions of an actual couple, only to realize that neither one of them actually loved the other . When they tired of the pretense, they would eventually break up .

When Yennefer arrived at Kaer Morhen, she immediately started wondering if she had taken a wrong turn somewhere along the road . These roads to Kaer Morhen seemed to be far too well-paved . Horses and chariots would find such routes highly convenient . As she closed in on the ancient castle, she found the area to be densely populated . Was this truly that desolate Kaer Morhen, not the Free City of Novigrad?

It was not like Yennefer had never heard about the rumors surrounding Kaer Morhen's ma.s.sive change . Obviously, she had dismissed such rumors to be exaggerations . She could never imagine such a desolate, dilapidated relic develop into a free City within so short a time .

When the "City of Miracles" finally appeared before her eyes, she doubted no more . That's right . Poets had called it the "City of Miracles . " Cities loved being called names such as, "The City of XX," such as "The Free City of Novigrad," "The City of Golden Towers . " Now, Kaer Morhen was called "The City of Miracles . "

Raising such a beautiful, great city within such a short period of time with magical dark technology - what was not miraculous about it?

This city was already the holy land to some mages . It was akin to a big, new door to many of them ------ Magic could actually be used like this?

Of course, some purists and conventional mages might find such methods of using magic to be controversial at best, taboo at worst . Magic was far too n.o.ble to be used on commoners, not to mention inanimate constructs and buildings . It was an insult to magic .

Olivia had no respect for these stiffnecks . She would not grant them the undeserved preferential treatment either . She believed that all mages had endless potential . As long as they were willing to learn, they might accomplish far more than the scientists of the other world .

The scientists within the modern world relied heavily on various instruments . On the other hand, sorcerers only need turn their thoughts inward unto their bloodline to gain an understanding of what things were, and why they were so . They could go far further than scientists . Revolutionalizing the world would be possible in a snap of their fingers .

Olivia would only give "Chosen Ones" and "Elder Blooded" like Cirilla special attention, regardless of their att.i.tude . Their potential was limitless . Otherwise, even formidable forces like Triss would pale in comparison to some of her modern technology!

Olivia intended to train sorcerers like scientists, not like soldiers . She was probably the only person in the entire world who had that idea . This was also the sole reason why her Kaer Morhen had grown into a one-of-kind station of power .

Yennefer was shocked by how "The City of Miracles" had been built around geometric aesthetics . Words could not describe the precise calculations that have taken place in its build . She could only confirm that the rumors were not exaggerated accounts of the truth, as she had once thought . After all, seeing was believing .

If this was the case, the legend of the "Northland Pearl" Princess Olivia might not be untrue either . It now made sense why Geralt's name had shot up to such an extent . Geralt was now probably the most famous witcher throughout the entire continent .

Perhaps even Geralt himself had not expected to "have this many daughters" one day . After all, people only "had many fathers" these days . What was the purpose of "having many daughters"?

Yennefer was finally curious about this adopted daughter…
