Lux's Farewell

Chapter 138 [0135] Authority
Camille wasn't so arrogant as to ignore a member of parliament entirely - the reality was that Levi's timing of his visit was unlucky.

Camille is not in the manor now.

Not only is Camille absent, but Cagalli is also absent.

Under such circumstances, when Levi brought a Zaun alchemist baron and several armed thugs outside the manor and began knocking on the door, it was not good for Philos Manor without a person with enough weight to speak Just let them into it.

Especially since Levi was vague about the reason for his visit.

"I need to see Mrs. Gray." When someone asked, Levi used a relatively euphemistic statement, "It's about the future of this city of evolution..."

Obviously, this kind of vague rhetoric did not allow him to obtain the right of way. The helpless Levi could only stay outside the manor with Finn, pretending to look around the scenery until Camille returned half an hour later.

Camille seemed a little surprised to see Levi.

"Your Excellency Levy, and...an alchemy baron from Zaun, this is really an unexpected combination." After the door opened, Camille said in a rare tone of surprise, "Please come in, it seems that the recent Not very calm."

In the small room where Heimerdinger once made an alliance, Camille took Cagalli and met with Levi in ​​a relatively formal manner.

Then, from Finn's mouth, Gray Lady learned in detail about the amazing changes in Zaun during this time.

Unlike Levi's astonishment, maybe it was because he had heard the wind a long time ago, maybe because he was not surprised, Camille didn't show too much surprise.

"So, do the people of Zaun want to attack the Sun Gate again?" Camille sipped a sip of the black tea in the cup, and said in an understatement tone, "The last failure hasn't taught them a lesson yet. Is it?",
"Piltover needs your protection." Levi didn't answer the question directly, but lowered his posture, "Dear Gray Lady, sooner or later the turmoil in Zaun will affect the entire Piltover, I have no intention of opposing your strategy, but at this juncture, perhaps we should be more careful...at least not give those people a chance."

"So, do you want the parliament to temporarily stop reforms?" Camille put down her teacup and asked quite directly, "For the sake of stability?"

"Yes, reform is necessary for the stability of the situation, but it should not be rushed." Levy nodded with a very sincere expression, "As far as I am concerned, I do have a certain amount of investment in Zaun, but frankly speaking , Those investments are now completely in vain... I came here today, completely for the consideration of Piltover."

Levi's words made Camille couldn't help raising her eyebrows. She stared at the chestnut-haired guy in front of her with glowing eyes, and for the first time showed an unexpected and interested expression on her face.

"If you're really thinking about Piltover." Camille's tone carried a hint of warning, "Maybe you should have come to me two days ago—before those stupid guys tried to unite When we were together."

Camille's words made Levi's cold sweat drip from his back quickly, and under the well-tailored dress, the Nashamara silk shirt was soaked in the blink of an eye.

Two days ago, several congressmen who were dissatisfied with Camille's reform did find Levy through private relationships, hoping that he could join them in opposing Camille's reform in a relatively mild manner, and let this arbitrary Gray Lady suffered a little.

However, Levi hadn't made up his mind at that time, and he chose to wait and see pretending not to know about this hint.

And now... Levi was suddenly glad that he wasn't overheated.

The Gray Lady knows even this secret union!

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Levy." She said don't be nervous, but in fact Camille seemed very happy to see the other party's embarrassment. She picked up the cup again and happily took a sip of the thick Black Tea, "You are willing to stand here today, at least it shows that you are not stupid, and you are not hopeless. If there are members like you in the parliament, then the operation of Piltover will undoubtedly be much smoother."

At first glance, Camille's words seemed to be a compliment, a promise to Levi to continue to be a member of parliament, but the slightly teasing tone still made Levi feel uncomfortable.

This feeling of not having even a little secret is really too uncomfortable. Camille's shining eyes seem to be able to see into her heart completely.

There is nothing worse for a politician than this.

Therefore, Levy can only nod his head and say yes, that's all.

"I said, don't be nervous." Camille put down the teacup, "When I was a child, my father once gave me a truth - for a part, no matter how ugly or unflattering its design , but as long as it’s irreplaceable, nobody’s going to give it up, and I’ve always thought there was a lot of truth to that.”

"Yes... yes." Levi nodded again, and then changed the subject a little bluntly, "It's like Zaun, even though it's dirty and messy, we still need it..."

"It's not Zaun, it's you." Camille didn't give him a chance to continue the Tai Chi. "And, to be honest, your chestnut hair is very flattering and always reminds me of an old friend."

"It's my pleasure..."

"..."

"..."

After drinking a stomach full of tea, Levi, who hurriedly left Ferros Manor, did not ask who the old friend was.

For this Member of Parliament, what he needs to pay attention to is not the old friend of Mrs. Gray, but his own future.

Levy originally thought that through this incident in Zaun, he could approach Camille in a relatively independent manner without any trace, and while making a choice, he also left a little buffer for his future.

But after actually facing Mrs. Gray, this kind of small calculation, which was originally loud, was quickly thrown out of the sky by Levi.

This time, Levi was fully aware that, in front of this gray lady, the so-called alliance of other congressmen was nothing but self-destruction.

For their sabotage plan, the Gray Lady is even clearer than the planners!
Under such circumstances, Levi abandoned his position without hesitation, and simply and completely fell to Mrs. Gray.

Although he is still not sure what position he will be in after undergoing a change in Piltover.

But at least judging from the current situation, I am much better than those stubborn colleagues in any case.

As for Zaun...

If it was said that Levi was vaguely worried because of the sudden change in the situation in Zaun before, but after meeting Camille, he was full of confidence.

Levy, who was still silently ridiculing Finn in his heart while waiting to enter the manor, did not realize that his appearance after meeting Camille was exactly the same as Finn who had met himself.
