Chapter 149 I Feel Like an Outsider
Laxana shook her head solemnly and persuaded:
"It's not that simple. This is a death duel between families. If you ask for a divorce on the wedding day, my family can even ask for a family death duel."
A family death duel is a duel where the lives of the entire family are at stake and all family members have to fight on the ring.
In this battle, you can use external forces and call on the army you lead, as long as the other party agrees to this duel where all sides must fall.
Of course, Lux knew it very well. If this happened, the person who would deal with it would most likely be her aunt.
According to her aunt Tiana's tough temperament, she would at least initiate a death duel with the head of the Laurent family, that is, Fiona's father.
Only the death of the head of the family can defend the lost face and dignity of the Crown Guard family.
However, the family death duel should not happen. Her aunt is not the kind of person who kills everyone, and doing so will also damage the positive image of the Crown Guard family, which is not worth the loss.
But for her plan in her heart, some things have to be said more seriously.
"Is that really the case?"
Fiona paused with her sword raised, and looked at the other party with an inquiring gaze.
Laxana's face was serious at the moment, and she didn't seem to be joking at all.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask your father. Even if the marriage fails, we are still friends. I don't want to see one of our two families perish." Laxana added with a look of reluctance.
"Okay, I'll think it over."
Fiona's eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about something.
"Actually. I have another suggestion, but I don't know whether I should say it or not." Laxana hesitated.
"Go ahead."
Seeing Laxana's hesitation, Fiona frowned slightly.
She was very confused now, and she didn't know what to do at all.
Fiona didn't want to tell her father what she thought, but if she didn't say it, it might cause a disaster.
Why did Demacia, which she thought was very simple, have so many troubles.
Laxana is a kind girl, which is a recognized point of view, and she also recognized this point in these days of getting along.
As a friend, she believed that the other party could give a good suggestion.
Even if Laxana's last name is Mianwei.
"That. Actually, ah. Forget it."
Laxana hesitated for a long time, but still sighed and said:
"I think it's better for you not to know. Once you choose that path, you will abandon your family and relatives, and you can only express your emotions on the sword in the future, and you must always fight for justice."
"Isn't this a good thing?"
After hearing her words, Fiona was puzzled:
"Is there really such a method?"
"You really don't care?" Laxana blinked.
"As long as I can practice swordsmanship." Fiona said firmly, "Tell me quickly!"
"Okay, the method is"
Laxana stared at Fiona, and said word by word:
"Join the Inquisition!"
"The Inquisition? The loyal disciples of the Winged Guardian? Aren't people denouncing Him now?" Fiona was full of surprise.
Although she loves swords, it doesn't mean that she hasn't heard about what's happening outside.
Since the Winged Guardian was defeated by Noxus, rumors have been circulating in the capital.
What the Winged Protector is not a real god, what being deceived, what the gods use magic and so on.
Of course, there are more than just voices of opposition. The Winged Protector has protected Demacia for hundreds of years, and most people have been blessed by justice.
Many people have stood up, and they are committed to protecting the Winged Protector. There are even many radicals who propose a vote to abolish the Demacia Magic Ban.
Now the streets of Xiongdu have become a mess, with everyone expressing their own opinions and arguing.
"The Inquisition does want to sever its relationship with the family. It is said that when entering, you must swear an oath: no longer have any connection with the biological parents of the family, fight for justice in this life, and never tolerate even if the parents do evil. But."
Fiona asked with a puzzled look:
"The Winged Protector has been captured, and the Inquisition itself can't protect itself. Is there any need to join now?"
"Didn't your grandfather send back the news?" Laxana asked.
Fiona shook her head in confusion. She could see the hesitation and struggle on Laxana's face, so she comforted her:
"I will consider this matter. If there is anything you cannot say, you don't have to tell me."
"I'd better tell you. My brother sent back the news. It is said that the Winged Protector will come back in a month." Laxana's face was complicated.
This complexity was interpreted by Fiona as guilt, the guilt of not keeping a secret for her friend.
She looked surprised, but still promised seriously:
"Don't worry! I will never tell anyone! If He can come back, joining the Judgment Corps is indeed a good idea. Thank you, Laxana!"
Listening to Fiona's assurance and thanks, Laxana felt a little guilty.
No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one forum!
What she thought in her heart was exactly the opposite of Fiona's.
She was indeed full of guilt, but she was guilty for acting and deceiving her friends.
Laxana really thought she had a talent for acting. She acted out those expressions so realistically that Fiona didn't doubt it at all.
His brother hadn't come back yet, and the secret report to the family didn't include these.
Her sources of information were all magic books, whether it was about the Inquisition or the Winged Protector.
If she hadn't been with the magic book all the time, she would have thought it had personally experienced the war of gods.
However, she heard that powerful mages could distort time, step into the long river of time, and capture fragments of the future with the eyes of time.
Laxana suspected that the soul in the magic book had such ability, otherwise there was no other explanation.
She remained calm in her heart, and nodded affirmatively on the surface:
"This is the agreement between another Demacia god and Noxus. I have made preparations in advance."
"What do you want to do?" Fiona was surprised after realizing it.
She seemed to realize at this moment that Laxana was not just a noble girl.
Perhaps like her, she also had her own goals to achieve.
Did she want a marriage contract like her? Who was the target? Jarvan?
While Fiona was thinking about it, she saw Laxana nodded seriously:
"I do have something to do, but the purpose is a little difficult to say. I will definitely tell you in the future!"
She hesitated for a while, but still gave her own guarantee.
Everything now needs to be kept secret, but in the future she will definitely be the first to tell the other party.
"It doesn't matter, we are all the same."
Fiona has confirmed her guess, and a feeling of mutual sympathy arises in her heart, and she gives the other party a sympathetic look.
Just this simple look makes Laxana's heart tighten slightly.
Not giving her time to think about it, Fiona continued with a serious face:
"If there is anything I can help you with, please tell me! I will definitely help you get rid of your fate! Swear by Laurent's last name!"
"Don't take it so seriously. I actually just need you to do a little favor."
Hearing Fiona swear by her last name, Laxana felt a little embarrassed.
She even wondered if she had been guessed.
In today's meeting, she really felt like she was just a messenger, just to pass on the message to the magic book and Fiona.
It was obviously her who was speaking, but she herself didn't understand it the most. She was like an outsider.
Laxana suppressed this strange emotion and still followed the last line of the script, speaking softly and with a look of longing:
"I want to create a small organization, an organization that can bring light to everyone!"
