He relayed this news to Keira and Shani; with the help of the Order of the Flaming Rose, at the very least, the Vizima rat extermination would proceed smoothly.
In Vizima City, no one dared to openly defy this knightly order directly under Princess Adda.
And in this entire operation, he, the Witcher, was basically a hands-off manager, not needing to do much, simply reaping the benefits.
After all, Shani was responsible for epidemic prevention and patient arrangements; even if he wanted to help, he wouldn't understand it.
And manipulating the Plague Maiden, then having her patrol the entire city to gather all the rats for mass incineration, was entrusted to the sorceress Keira.
This was also Keira's effort to claim credit for herself and enhance her reputation; she didn't even want the Witcher to interfere, lest he steal her glory.
As for Guilliman.
All he had to do was collect their souls within an hour after all the city's rats were burned to death.
It was practically a free ride, getting benefits for nothing, a no-cost business.
After finalizing the timetable for the great rat extermination plan, Guilliman prepared to return to Black Gull Island.
He planned to tell this plan to the little dragon girl Saesenthessis and also invite her to participate.
He wanted to greatly boost his favorability in front of this justice-minded dragon maiden.
It was also to prove that he hadn't been flirting for the past few days, but rather diligently contributing to world peace and justice.
However, before returning to the island, Guilliman planned to strengthen himself again, using up the accumulated soul power.
He had already given the spoils from hunting the Ancient Leshen to Margarita.
According to the experienced headmistress's estimation, the Ancient Leshen's heart should be able to create a magical artifact with a very unique function, reproducing some ability of this Ancient Leshen.
And the plant roots, which concentrated its essence, could be used as raw materials to create some powerful potions.
Of course, this Ancient Leshen was truly rare; even Margarita couldn't fully research it in such a short time, so it would take some time to get the finished product.
But that was enough; this was the benefit of connections.
If it were an ordinary Witcher, even if he miraculously killed some monsters and obtained valuable spoils, they would either be wasted or sold cheaply to sorcerers, probably not even recouping one-tenth of their value.
Whereas a Witcher with connections like him could profit from multiple sources, earning a fortune, not to mention the soul power and spoils already obtained, and the dragon maiden Saesenthessis he unexpectedly brought back.
Now, the beautiful Goddess of Flowers still owed him a reward, and that was a reward worth looking forward to.
In Princess Adda's royal bathroom, Guilliman soaked in a bathtub filled with flowers and various high-grade essential oils, comfortably taking a hot bath while closing his eyes and relaxing.
However, he wasn't there just to enjoy the hot bath; his attention was already focused on his system panel.
After days of practice, [Cat School Swordsmanship] and [Bear School Swordsmanship], these two entry-level sword techniques, had reached a level where they could be upgraded.
Guilliman planned to take advantage of his relatively abundant soul power to upgrade all four sword techniques he mastered a bit, which would also be a major enhancement to his physical fitness.
Unfortunately, there was still no news of the Griffin School Witchers; otherwise, he could have witnessed this Witcher school, rumored to have top-tier combat power, once more.
Deep Blue, add points for me!
[Cat School Swordsmanship] Entry-level upgraded to LV4, consuming 1800 Soul Power.
[Bear School Swordsmanship] Entry-level upgraded to LV4, consuming 1800 Soul Power.
[Viper School Swordsmanship] LV4 upgraded to LV5, consuming 2000 Soul Power.
[Wolf School Swordsmanship] LV4 upgraded to LV5, consuming 2000 Soul Power.
Upgrading four skills consumed 7600 Soul Power.
Remaining Soul Power: 642 points.
