Chapter 801 [0789] Reunion After a Long Separation

This voice is familiar.

Shyvana turned around.

At the entrance of the old building of the Art Support Association, a tall man was waving at Shyvana in the crowd.

"You are..."

Shyvana recognized him immediately.

Jarvan IV - His Majesty the former Emperor of Demacia.

"Miss Shyvana, it's been a long time since we last met." Just when she was a little surprised, Jarvan IV took the initiative to separate the crowd and came to Shyvana's side, "Is this still an architectural inspection?"

While speaking, he gently raised his eyebrows, and then glanced at the people around him.

Shyvana was a little confused, but facing Jarvan IV's slightly expectant eyes, she nodded gently.

Coincidentally, she also wanted to talk to Jarvan IV - in addition to sending a letter to Kalya, Taric also had a letter for her to send to Jarvan IV.

"Great." Not sure if it was an illusion, Shyvana suddenly saw a sense of relief on the other person's face, "Let's go, I'll take you to see the new buildings in Xiongdu in recent years."

As he said that, Jarvan IV took the initiative to walk to the position shoulder to shoulder with Shyvana, then turned back and waved to the people who surrounded him behind him.

Those people seemed to want to continue to surround them, but it seemed that it was difficult to surround them because of Shyvana, so they could only stay where they were and watch Jarvan IV and Shyvana leave together.

"What's going on?" Turning a corner, Shyvana finally asked in a strange way, "Your Majesty Jarvan IV?"

"I'm not your majesty anymore." Jarvan IV smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "It's a long story... Anyway, you have helped me a lot. In return, Miss Shyvana should not mind if I treat you to a cup of tea?"

Somewhat curious Shyvana blinked her eyes, she vaguely sensed Jarvan IV's intense heartbeat, feeling a little subtle.

However, she nodded gently in the end.

……………………

In a tavern on the corner, Jarvan IV and Shyvana sat in a small box. In front of them was a small, exquisite tea stove. On the stove sat a copper teapot, with steam coming out of the spout.

"The tea in this tavern should be the most authentic." Jarvan IV picked up the teapot and poured hot water into the cups in front of Shyvana and himself. "Try it, Miss Shyvana - how does it compare with Vazun's?"

Shyvana nodded, and then her eyes fell on the swirling tea leaves.

Typical Ionian spiritual tea, the price is quite expensive.

Shyvana is not a dragon who likes exquisite food.

Or rather, elemental dragons and exquisite food have never been related. Compared with the tea in the cup that gradually turns amber, Shyvana actually prefers a whole cow grilled on charcoal fire, and a bucket of cool spring water mixed with some tea leaves after a full meal.

This small cup of spiritual tea was very exquisite, but it did not fit her usual style.

However, since it was Jarvan IV who invited her, Shyvana would not refuse. She nodded gently, then picked up the teacup with both hands, and drank the boiling hot tea like a dragon sucking water, imitating Jarvan IV's appearance.

Jarvan IV's reminder was choked in his throat - he wanted to remind Shyvana that the tea was very hot, but from Shyvana's reaction, she didn't seem to feel that way.

So, Jarvan IV, who opened his mouth, could only change the subject slightly awkwardly.

"Miss Shyvana, are you here to study Demacia architecture again?"

"I'm just here to take a look at the capital this time." Shyvana shook her head gently, "I didn't think that much."

"Is that so..." Jarvan IV nodded, "That's a pity, there are many interesting buildings in the capital in recent years."

"Your Majesty Jarvan IV--"

"I'm not your Majesty." Jarvan IV waved his hand and picked up the teacup again, "I haven't been for a long time."

"Then... Jarvan." Shyvana changed her words, "I heard that a lot of things happened in Demacia."

"Yes, a lot of things." Jarvan IV nodded gently, then sipped the spiritual tea in the cup, seemingly not caring about the hot tea at all, "It's always something unexpected."

"..."

Shyvana nodded silently.

To be honest, after Lux had told her a lot about Jarvan IV, Shyvana did have a lot of questions to ask him when she saw him again, but considering her identity and his experience, even if Shyvana didn't know much about the ways of the world, it was not easy to ask these questions.

Shyvana had complicated feelings about the former emperor - she had dealt with him many times when she was investigating the news in Xiongdu before, and from a personal perspective, she didn't hate him.

But the problem was that Jarvan IV didn't know Shyvana's true identity. He didn't know that Shyvana was a dragon, nor did he know that Shyvana had stood on the side of the North from the beginning. He seemed to have a special yearning for Shyvana's human form, and this yearning made Shyvana subconsciously want to avoid it.

However, after experiencing more, Shyvana is now able to face Jarvan IV's gaze directly.

So she simply suppressed her curiosity and took the initiative to change the topic. She chatted with Jarvan IV about the scenery and people she had seen over the years, just like an old friend she hadn't seen for many years.

From the snow in the north to the yellow sand of Shurima.

These information, which were once confidential within the intelligence team, are now time to be "declassified".

Listening to Shyvana's story, Jarvan IV was surprised, and occasionally looked surprised.

"I have also been to Shurima and seen the desert there." When Shyvana told him about the wind-driven sand dunes, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's just that at that time, my mind was focused on During a battle that shouldn’t have happened, I didn’t notice those magical sand dunes... Listening to what you said, I feel like I missed a lot. "

"What about you?" Shyvana drank a cup of scalding spiritual tea again. "After... after the establishment of New Demacia, where are you Jarvan?"

"I..." Jarvan IV put down the tea cup and rubbed the right angle of the table with his fingertips, "I originally thought about going to the Art Support Association to teach people how to dance."

"This must be a good fit for you." Shyvana said sincerely, "You are very good at dancing."

"But sometimes, if you want to teach people to dance, just having dancing skills is not enough." Jarvan IV looked a little embarrassed, "Not many people are willing to accept a dance teacher with a special status. There are also people who learn dance but have different Same goal."

"Like those people surrounding you today?"

"Yes, it's like them." Jarvan IV paused, then picked up the tea cup again, "So, you have helped me a lot. If you hadn't appeared, I'm afraid they would still be entangled. long time……"

"Who...are they?"

"They are a group of people who cannot see the reality clearly." Jarvan IV seemed unwilling to continue on this topic, and just answered vaguely, "There will always be people who are used to living in their own world."

"So, the identities of those people." Shyvana narrowed her eyes, and her eyes had a faint tendency to look like snake eyes. "Are they all former nobles?"

Jarvan IV did not answer, but raised his glass again and took a sip of hot tea, then picked up the teapot again.

"Since they can't see the reality clearly, why not let them see it more clearly?" Thinking of what Lux and herself had said about the poor and refined old nobles, Shyvana couldn't help but said, "Take them Get out of your own world."

To be honest, this sentence has a somewhat profound meaning to Shyvana.

However, Jarvan IV, who had never had anyone to communicate with, didn't mind the other party's presumption.

"It is precisely because they know that the outside world is very different that they hide." Jarvan IV looked like he had seen through it all. "They just want me to be a flag, instead of facing the world."

Shyvana frowned.

"Actually, if I hadn't actually experienced something, I probably wouldn't be willing to accept it." Jarvan IV continued, "From this perspective, I actually have no qualifications to criticize them. In this case, it's better to let them It saves them from going to other places to cause trouble.”

Jarvan IV was open-minded.

After experiencing the possession of the Celestial Spirit, he has deeply realized where the danger in Demacia comes from - in a sense, he was already a dead man when Twilight controlled him. The reason why he was able to accept New Demacia so calmly was largely because he regarded his subsequent experience of regaining his will as a rebirth.

Yes, in the eyes of Jarvan IV, he is a person who has "died once", so he is very open-minded and calm.

It's a pity that the nobles of Xiongdu have not "died once", and they still have undue illusions about their past glory - but regarding the threat of the protoss, Jarvan IV is not yet able to remind him, so he can only let it go If the old man is entangled with you, you can hide if you can.

From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with him thanking Shyvana. If Shyvana had not appeared, he would have been entangled by these old people for a long time today.

Hearing what Jarvan IV said, Shyvana suddenly felt a little irritable for some reason.

If it had been before Ixtar's trip, perhaps based on her experience, she would have had some sympathy for some of Jarvan IV's choices.

But after the trip to Ixtar...

She always felt that this kind of nonsense was very boring.

How do you say that - dojo in a snail shell?

"In fact, you shouldn't pay attention to them." Shyvana hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to say this, "Your talents should actually be used in more appropriate places."

"I also think I'm pretty good at teaching students to dance." Jarvan IV subconsciously avoided the important and chose the easy. "At least there won't be any problems..."

"Not in this aspect, but the power contained in your body." Shyvana interrupted Jarvan IV, "Just like Taric, his power should not be used to maintain that backward order. "

Jarvan IV's eyes widened.

He had no idea why Shyvana suddenly mentioned Tarik - in fact, it was no exaggeration to say that among those former confidants of Jarvan IV, the only one he cared about now was Tarik.

Garen is now planning his wedding, and it seems he's finally getting ahead of Jarvan IV in this regard.

Barrett is Sona's father. Even if he retires, he can still enjoy his old age in the future.

Lan Fu is simply a despicable traitor and has nothing to say.

The only thing that Jarvan IV was worried about was Taric. Since he went to Kalduga, there has been no news. Jarvan IV believed that he would not be in any danger in Kalduga, but he was worried that he would be involved in some dirty restoration organization after learning about the current situation in Demacia.

In order not to completely cut off the relationship with these old people, Jarvan IV also had considerations about Taric - if Taric came back, at least he would have a way to contact himself, and he could also prevent him from going down a dangerous path.

"Taric is on his way back to Demacia." In Jarvan IV's astonished eyes, Shyvana took out a letter from her arms, "Just give it to you now."

Jarvan IV's head was a little confused.

Didn't Taric go to Kalduga and Kumangla to explore those grain producing areas?

How could he be related to Shyvana?

Was it an accidental encounter?

Jarvan IV took the letter.

"Open it and take a look." Shyvana urged gently, "Read it first."

Jarvin IV tore open the envelope and pulled out the letter, and saw a familiar line of notes.

Yes, it was Taric's handwriting-he was always so rigid and never wrote in a row.

Then, as Jarvan IV read line by line, his expression gradually became more interesting.

Especially when he read the part about Shyvana.

Taric didn't know that Jarvan IV had wanted to pursue Shyvana, so in order to emphasize the seriousness and authenticity of the problem, he specifically mentioned in the letter that "Miss Shyvana is an elemental dragon in human form and a witness to this terrible war."

When Jarvan IV read this line, he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

Shyvana is... a dragon?

He squeezed out a dry smile, looked over the top of the letter, and subconsciously looked at Shyvana.

As if sensing something, Shyvana also looked at him, with snake-like vertical pupils appearing in her charming golden eyes.

Facing this pair of eyes that were a mixture of humanity and wildness, Jarvan IV's breathing seemed to stagnate.

In other words, the previous self was actually fascinated by... a dragon?

This wave was a candid game.
