Chapter 719 The Plan to Subvert the Kingdom of Demacia Is Underway (??Ω??)

Demacia...

This magnificent capital is called the 'City of Light' by people from other parts of the Rune World!

It is a utopia where everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, a paradise on earth away from magic and darkness!

Today's weather is fine,

The blue sky and white clouds, the golden bay of the Sea of ​​Conquerors, the beautiful capital of Demacia, the beautiful city of Mithril, the tidy streets, the crowds of cars and horses, and the beautiful white castle buildings near and far , the uniform blue roof of Demacia, tall fountains, majestic statues, all these elements soften together, making the capital city of Demacia look extraordinarily charming...

However,

At this time, a blond girl in a tight white leather armor and a soft gauze skirt was strolling casually on the street with her head bowed in frustration... She seemed to be hiding something in her heart, and she was not in the mood like Just like in the past, to enjoy the beautiful scenery and breathe the temporarily free air... She just rode her tall steed of the crown guard family a little bored, and let it carry the headmistress of her family on her back. People wander aimlessly on this stone street where people come and play.

Perhaps it was influenced by its owner, and it doesn't seem to be in a good mood now. It usually raises its head and chest up, but now it lowers its head and squints its big horse eyes half-closed. The hostess on the back moved its four hooves slowly forward following the previous route.

"Why……"

Lacus has been feeling very distressed for the past two days...

Because, without knowing why, her brother Galen and her aunt Tiana suddenly decided that they wanted to marry her, Laxana, the crown guard of the defending family, into Germany. Marcia's royal family, married that prince Jarvan IV?

Of course, that Prince Jarvan has seen it himself, he is tall, handsome, and mighty, and he is also the only blood of the royal family, which means that he must be the next king of Demacia!

but……

Lux still felt a little unhappy, or... could it be said to be worried?

First of all, she is not very familiar with that Prince Jiawen, the number of times she met was pitifully small, and she hardly spoke many times. Apart from greetings and basic greetings, she didn't even talk to that low-key royal family member. Ever been alone, dated or something, that's never been!

Apart from knowing that the other party is her brother Galen's good friend, knowing that the other party is a brave fighter and a powerful fighter, she doesn't know much about the other party. Basically, she and him are two parallel lines If her brother and aunt hadn't mentioned it, she would never have thought of such a thing.

Secondly,

She, Lux, is not an ordinary girl from the Crownguard family. She has her own terrible secrets, and if it gets out...

Therefore, she was shocked but also very uneasy about the fact that her brother and aunt were going to marry her suddenly!

Not only because of what she was thinking about just now, but also because of her own big secret...

Because, she doesn't know, if the other party knows all her secrets and knows that she is a magician and has been infected with magic since she was very young... Will the royal family be ashamed because of this? , and then, in a fit of anger, throw her to those demon seekers and the Light of Demacia to deal with?

Lacus didn't know about this, and didn't dare to think too much about it...

"If you can stay at home all the time, or if the kingdom of Demacia can be a little more peaceful, and stop persecuting mages and eliminating isolation magic, how good would it be?"

"only……"

"Why!"

Thinking about it, Lux sighed heavily again.

It is conceivable, even without a doubt, that once she really succumbed to the nonsensical arrangements made by her brother Galen and her aunt Tiana,

Even if she really succeeded in marrying Prince Jiawen, her little secret will definitely be discovered by those close to her when the time comes, and it will definitely happen!

At that time, will they choose to protect themselves and acquiesce in the existence of her and the magic in her body, or will they choose to hand her over in order to maintain the dignity of the law and the dignity of the royal family?

She doesn't know anything about it...

But it is conceivable that in the Kingdom of Demacia, after the terrible rune war thousands of years ago, after a long period of forbidden magic, magic has almost become natural... and once she Lux If it is determined to be a magician, I am afraid that the people of the royal family will definitely not risk the descendants of the royal family being infected with demons and continue to tolerate her existence, which will shame the entire royal family and shake the foundation of the royal family of!

The current Kingdom of Demacia certainly cannot accommodate a magician prince and concubine, nor can it accommodate a demon-stained Jarvan V! !

So, now Lux is really distressed, she doesn't know what to do...

But she knew that if she didn't have a good way to deal with the increasingly uncontrollable magic power and the 'light' that was not accepted by outsiders, she would definitely not end well!

The growing power hidden in her body is the source of her misfortune!

At that time, no matter whether she refuses the kindness of her brother and aunt, or submits to the wishes of the other party and marry into the royal family, the result will definitely not be too good! Anyway, she definitely doesn't want to be imprisoned in the Arcatraz by those demon hunters, and then force-fed the magic stone potion by those rude guards every day, or simply exiled to the depths of the Valoran continent , was directly expelled from the homeland of Demacia?

But……

Even if she doesn't want to do that, and doesn't want to cause trouble to others, is there really no good way for her... The power in her body, like a curse, has been entwining her deeply, making her She has always had a terrible feeling of suffocation... Moreover, it has become more and more difficult to suppress recently, even if she has tried her best to suppress or completely eradicate it, she has no idea at all.

"Um?"

"Strange, those people... what are they doing there?"

Lux, who was wandering around, thinking and soothing the depression in her heart, suddenly raised her eyes and found a lot of people gathering and clamoring in front of a notice wall, pointing out that Pointing and discussing loudly, I don't know what I'm doing.

So, she hesitated for a while, and felt a little curious, she pinched her long legs in tight leather pants, and began to take the initiative to ride the horse and move forward, intending to see what happened?

Reward Notice

Yesterday, in the ruins of the rune war in the south of the city, many preyed and precious carcasses of Demacian dragon birds were found! After identification, those precious dragons and birds were suspected to be burned to death by vicious magic... The perpetrator's method was extremely cruel, and the magic threat was also extremely high...

Therefore, any Demacian citizen who knows about this matter and reports it to the Demon Seeker or the Light of Demacia will receive a huge reward of 100 Demacian gold coins...

announce! !

The newly posted announcements seemed to be only that one, and after just a few glances, Lacus read it, and didn't think there was anything too unusual. As for the old and expired ones, she just read them. Didn't look much.

"..."

How strange!

Lacus didn't quite understand why such a simple reward announcement on a new post attracted so many people to watch here?

Anyway, as far as she knew, whether it was the demon seekers or those in the Light of Demacia, they often put a reward on anyone or mages who found magic and cast disenchantment and exposed their tracks! But now, it seems that this is just a mage attacking a few dragons and birds, and it seems that it shouldn't attract so many people to watch and stop here.

"ah!!"

However, before Lux could figure it out, she turned her head and saw another scene that made her feel anxious:

On the other notice board, surrounded by the crowd, is a group of demon hunters and a large number of Demacia soldiers escorting two large prison vans! Inside, there are a group of men and women with sluggish expressions, and some even weeping with tears... Lacus can tell from their clothes that those children must be a group of Delmas. People from the Kingdom of West Asia!

However……

At this moment, those poor and helpless little ones of them are being locked in the prison car, waiting to be handed over like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and then they will definitely be locked up in the secret text that she has seen before. In that dreadful Arcatraz next to the Atrium, awaiting the trial of the law, the unjust verdict on their fate.

And this is obviously the real reason why so many people gather here to watch and point fingers!

Because most of the children imprisoned in the prison van, or even all of them, are unlikely to come back...Because, Lacus herself knows that all the children who were taken away by the demon seekers Such people never return!

She had never heard of demon hunters arresting them by mistake or in violation of regulations, so those arrested were undoubtedly demon-tainted citizens of Demacia!

Those people, most of them, were either imprisoned in the Arcatraz and tortured, or they were exiled to the inland far away from the Kingdom of Demacia to fend for themselves...or, directly 'inadvertently' Die in a dank, dark, dark cell?

"..."

Lacus looked at the children imprisoned in the prison car, the more sad and sad she looked, because she was proud, she and them seemed to be the same kind of people?

And she still feels...

If in the future, she doesn't have a good way to conceal the growing 'power' in her body, presumably in the near future, she herself will be the same as those helpless children not far away. The demonseekers arrested and imprisoned them in the Arcatraz, right?

At that time, I am afraid that no one can help her!

Not even her elder brother Galen who dotes on her the most, nor her aunt Tiana, even...not even her patronage of the crown guard family that has been passed down for thousands of years and has great prestige and power! !

Maybe,

That man imprisoned in that Arcatraz, that Silas, should she get in touch again? After all, judging from the current situation, what the other party said seems to be correct. She must plan for herself earlier and get what she needs from the other party?

The current Kingdom of Demacia is heading towards an increasingly extreme path. If she cannot change the entire country, she must first change and protect herself!

As for that Silas, he saw her own difference at a glance, and said so many valuable words, presumably, maybe it could really help her?

"stop!"

"Ma'am, please step back and don't get close to the prison car!!"

Just as Lux was unconsciously driving the horse close to the prison cart in contemplation and hesitation, wanting to get a better look at the children who were about to accept their tragic fate, a soldier wearing silver-white Demacian steel walked by. She came over, with a cold face, slammed the sharp spear in his hand, shouted orders, and blocked the way of her horse with the ax blade next to the spear point.

"..."

"I'm Laxana's champion. I want to know, what's going on with these children? I saw that many of them don't seem to be dangerous, and they are all children, but why? Are they going to be held here?"

A group of children who don't seem to be dangerous, even if there is magic in their bodies, generally speaking, this kind of benign "disaster" should not be arrested and imprisoned, they just need to be observed and guided at any time up.

Therefore, for this point, Lacus was puzzled in addition to being hesitant and sad!

"Ah! So it's the Miss Crownguard's family?"

"I'm really sorry, please forgive me for not seeing your family crest clearly just now..."

When the soldier heard Lux's words and saw the emblem on the harness breastplate on the chest of the opponent's horse, he quickly stood at attention, retracted his weapon and spear, bowed and saluted.

"..."

However, Lux didn't pay attention to the soldier's attitude, but continued to frown, looking at the group of prisoners imprisoned in the prison car, their spirits were sluggish, and even many girls were still sobbing in a low voice. The 'prisoners' who had their eyes planted.

All she wants to know now is why these drawings were held in the prison van!

She clearly remembered that the Kingdom of Demacia should be more tolerant of children with this kind of benign "disaster". As long as they don't show threats and use the abilities in their bodies, they shouldn't be arrested by the demon hunters, and they shouldn't be arrested. They shouldn't be detained here like they are now!

"Report Miss Crownguard!"

"The thing is this...these demon-infected children are...the 'prisoners' hunted by the demon hunters from the small town of Metrich and the surrounding villages, because their disasters are likely to make people They become a mage, so..."

"Although we also know that most of them have done nothing wrong, although most of them are children and have not caused anyone trouble, but, you may not know, now the law has changed ..."

"The higher-ups of the kingdom are discussing a law: Any citizen known to have magical abilities, whether they are benign or not, is required to be taken away for trial, and all mages in the kingdom must have no exceptions!"

"That's right, I was ordered to assist the demon seekers, and brought them here in the capital, waiting to be detained and judged by the tribunal..."

Having said that, the soldier didn't say anything more.

The law is the law, even if they are still children, but there is nothing they can do...

The rune war thousands of years ago taught the Kingdom of Demacia a bit too painful a lesson. After all, the entire kingdom was formed by the refugees who survived that war, so, for the sake of the kingdom For the safety of the people, they have to do this.

The current Demacia Kingdom can no longer tolerate any magic!

At least, that's the case for the children who were discovered... They were arrested almost on the same day the law was tried... In the future, when the law is officially passed, there will definitely be more like this Children with benign "disasters" and magical powers will be taken away by the magic searchers. This is a fact that can be foreseen now, and no one can try to change more in vain!

"..."

Oh I see……

The law against demon-infected citizens has been changed again...and it has been changed even more harshly?

In the astonishment and hesitation, Lax herself didn't know how she got away from those prison cars...Anyway, when she came to her senses, she and the steed under her crotch had already been driven out of the crowd. The place where the announcement wall was gathered was squeezed out.

At this time, the horse under her was snorting slightly, lowering its head, looking for grass in the gaps between the stones on the side of the road, and waiting for a new order from her master.

"magic……"

"Is it really that evil and terrifying?"

It may be because of the physical harm. When she saw those poor and helpless children imprisoned in the prison car waiting for the verdict of fate, Lacus immediately thought that the body in her body was stronger than those children. With the magical power, I can't help but become more and more hesitant...

Moreover, she couldn't help asking and answering herself, she lowered her head on her saddle and muttered something to herself.

"Magic is not scary!"

o(^｀)o

"Miss sister, let me tell you, those guys who are hostile to magic, they are the most evil and terrifying people! You must be careful, if they see the power in your body, then you But bad luck!"

o(_)o

Suddenly, a voice sounded beside Lacus!

"!!"

who is it? !

The first time she heard those terrifying words, Lux, who was riding on the saddle, staggered in fright, and almost fell directly onto the stone floor of the main street in the capital city of Demacia.

Because, what she heard...

Someone who was talking just now seemed to see through her completely, seeing the power hidden in her body?

"I saw it, young lady, you are a mage, right?"

ψo

At this moment, a little girl's crisp voice rang beside Lacus, and then, when Lacus came back to her senses in astonishment, she immediately turned her head to follow the sound, then she He was stunned to find that next to his horse, on the stone pier of those steps in the street, there was a little girl sitting with a piece of pancake in her hand and looking at her while eating?

"you……"

"Who are you? No! How on earth do you know?!"

After looking around and finding that no one was paying attention, Lux lowered her voice in panic, and asked the other party carefully.

Now, Lux doesn't understand why this well-behaved little girl with long blond hair can easily see the strength in her own body, and even call out that she is actually a The true identity of the mage?

This kind of thing is really strange, weird, and scary!

Because she was really sure just now that the power in her body has not lost control today, especially just now! Although, at that time, her mood had ups and downs, and her concentration was a little bit off... But, she has been carefully controlling her power, and she has not let them show off in front of those dangerous demon hunters!

Of this, she was sure! !

"You ask how I know?"

┗┛?

"Aha! Of course it's because I'm the one over there... um... I'm the evil magician who roasted dragons and birds mentioned in the reward notice!!"

o(*^^*)

A certain sad little girl shamelessly admitted some of the things she had done, and even flaunted her gestures of complacency to the young lady in front of her who was riding on the back of a tall horse. gesture.

In Little Annie's opinion, those Demacians over there are really stupid!

Now look, the instigator who ate the dragon eagle, she, Queen Anne, is just sitting here watching the fun, but what can they do with her?

Those idiots, without a portrait, without any other description, and even without any clues, why do they think they can find her just by pasting a piece of torn paper?

Let's wait and see, another day, if she is free, she will hunt some more dragon eagles, and see what those bad Demacians can do to her?

(…)

(●￣￣●)

"..."

She stared dumbfounded at this little girl who claimed to be an evil magician, who also claimed to have eaten the dragon and bird, the national treasure of the Demacia Kingdom, and even now looked proud, which made Lux wonder what to say. up...

She didn't understand, whose little girl was this little guy?

Does the other party know how risky it is to say such a terrible thing casually?

If, if found by the demon seekers not far away or heard by the people around, the fate of this little girl will definitely be worse than those children who are being imprisoned in the prison car waiting to be taken in. Much more miserable!

"Eh?"

∑(△｀)? !

"Miss, what does your strange expression mean?"

(‘◇’)?

"Well...you don't want to report me, do you? Let me tell you, if you dare to report me, I will say loudly that you are a mage! When the time comes, see Let's see who will be more unlucky between the two of us?"

ψ(*｀)o

Seeing the bewildered and fluctuating expression on the other party's face, she thought that the other party was Little Annie who wanted to run to inform her, so she hurriedly bluffed her face and threatened the other party in a low voice.

She is definitely not joking!

If this strange little sister who has been suppressing her own strength really dares to report her, Queen Anne, so that she can't play, shop and eat in this city, then she will also expose the other party's identity, Let the other party be imprisoned in that shabby prison van like those poor little brats!

"ah!!"

"No! I never thought of reporting you, I promise!!"

How could Lacus do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit oneself?

Just now, she was just shocked that this strange little girl dared to reveal the identity of the opposite mage so easily and saw through her own details at once. She absolutely had no other thoughts, and she didn't dare to have any!

"It's fine if you don't!"

o(^｀)o Humph!

"Well……"

(.._..)

Since this young lady who was also a mage didn't have the idea of ​​making trouble for herself, Anne didn't care too much, and then she turned her attention to the crowd and the prison cars in the distance again.

Now, she finally understood why Elder Sister Sona wanted to leave the capital of Demacia so early yesterday. It turned out that those people were really a group of villains who persecuted mages? Even, their kind of hateful guys, they don't even want to let children go?

Therefore, Her Lady Queen Anne decided that she must teach those hateful Demacians a profound lesson! Also be sure to let them know the greatness of magic! !

Of course, she didn't intend to go directly to save those poor little kids (although she is a little kid herself?) nor did she intend to use her strength to forcefully crush them. She planned to stay here well, Have a good time with these Demacian villains and make them pay for their evil deeds?

But...

What to do, she hasn't figured it out yet... Maybe, she can consider opening a magic school on the mountain opposite the capital of Demacia, where the entire city can be seen. Bad guys?

Then, by the way, can you help that badass mother Amoline in the family to round up the nonsense of lying to children?

(…)

"Miss, it's getting late, I'm going home now!"

(o^-^)o

"I live in the Bouvier Manor on the opposite side of the mountain. My name is Anne, Anne Hasta! If you want to learn magic to fight those villains, you can come to me anytime, and you can learn it for free!"

(^)☆

How to deal with those villains in Demacia, Anne hasn't figured it out yet, so she winked and stuck out her tongue at the silly little sister in front of her who was riding on the back of a big horse. After a big grimace, as soon as he stood up, he disappeared immediately, as if he had never appeared again.

"!!"

"how come?!"

Looking at the little girl who disappeared in front of him in an instant, then turned around and saw that there was nothing unusual about the other people around, and for some reason, after being surprised, Lux's heart was beating wildly... It seemed to want to jump out... Even, together with the power in her own body, there were faint omens of being uncontrollable?

Maybe, that little girl could give herself more answers, even more than Silas who was imprisoned in the Arcatraz?

"..."

"The Bouvier estate?"

Looking up at the high mountain in the distance of the city, looking at the scattered buildings and manors dotted on it, Lux barely suppressed the power that was about to burst out of her body, and then quickly patted the steed under her. , intending to go back to his own home first, lest his abnormality be discovered by those dangerous demon hunters in the distance.

'Step aside! Step aside! '

‘Everyone get out of the way immediately! ! '

When Little Annie left, when Lux patted her steed and turned away in a hurry, another group of Demacian soldiers in silver-white battle armor and blue battle robes rushed here, and they drove the surrounding Germans savagely. The citizens of Marcia yelled, and let the war horses pulling the prison cart drive the newly captured 'little prisoners' contaminated with magic to the direction of the Arcatraz...

Soon, amidst the clamor of the citizens, the pointing and gloating sounds, the shouting of the soldiers when they left to maintain order, and the crying of the 'little prisoners' who were held in the prison van, this place that was originally At the place where many onlookers gathered, calm was restored again.

The capital of Demacia, the "City of Light" praised by Runeterra, is still so beautiful and peaceful...
