Chapter 1020: Leona is in trouble

Men of different ethnicities believe that they are of a different ethnicity and should be treated differently.

He argued loudly, with a hint of arrogance in his voice: "We are all from different ethnic groups. How can you favor outsiders and not help me?"

The roar of the foreign man was particularly harsh in the bustling market. His eyes were burning with resentment and anger, as if every word was an accusation of unfair fate.

However, his words revealed a deep-rooted prejudice - the belief that ethnic identity should be a reason for special treatment.

Marin stood in front of him, her figure straight and her eyes sharp, without the slightest wavering in her heart.

She knew that such voices were just a stumbling block on the long road to integration and must be removed firmly.

Faced with this sudden accusation, Marin was not at all flustered.

She knew very well that at this moment, her every move and every word would have a profound impact on everyone present.

In a country where multiple ethnic groups coexist, any form of favoritism and discrimination is a blasphemy against fairness and justice.

"As archons, we represent the interests and harmony of all of Noxus, not the interests of a particular nation."

Marin's words were powerful.

"Your behavior not only damages the image of other ethnic groups, but also violates the core values ​​of Noxus. The point deduction is to make you realize your mistakes and to remind everyone: in this country, there is no special treatment, only fairness and justice."

The reason why Marin became a killer was to break the discrimination and hatred between the other ethnic groups and the imperial people.

Now that Noxus has fulfilled her dream, Marin will naturally not let anyone destroy this hard-won prosperity.

The foreign man wanted to say something, but Main handed the ticket to him and left.

"I didn't expect that the foreign archon would not favor his own people."

"What foreign archons? They are all Noxian archons. There is no such thing as foreign archons. We are all Noxians. We are one family!"

Ideological education has already begun, organizing the people and arranging personnel to spread ideas.

However, it will take years to completely eliminate such contradictions. Although Mayin and many like-minded people have made tremendous efforts, the road to integration is still long and full of challenges.

Old prejudices and hatreds, like undercurrents buried deep underground, will surface from time to time and destroy the hard-earned harmony.

Especially in those areas that have been invaded by foreign ethnic groups, the people's hostility towards foreign ethnic groups is particularly strong.

Noxus is a new empire, and it has conquered all the territories of other ethnic groups. From now on, there will be no distinction between different ethnic groups, so it is natural to integrate them.

Compared to Maine's burning fighting spirit who is devoted to politics and is doing very well, Leone is in a miserable situation.

Because Noxus is determined to eradicate the crime that has long plagued the people, from petty theft on the streets to far-reaching bandit gangs, all have become targets of crackdown.

Although this series of measures won the cheers and support of the majority of the people, it also put some people, such as Leone, into an unprecedented predicament. With the change in the empire's policy, everything she relied on seemed to collapse overnight.

Those dark corners that were once her hunting grounds have now become bright and clear, with no place to hide;
Those targets who were once her source of livelihood have now become prisoners of the empire and are undergoing labor reform.

They also included beggars, thieves, robbers and other marginalized groups in the labor reform system, hoping to reform them through education and labor and allow them to reintegrate into society.

This move undoubtedly dealt a fatal blow to a killer profession like Leone.

The emperor personally issued an order to revoke the privileges of all assassin organizations and declared that the profession of assassin was no longer necessary in the new empire.

The new empire no longer needs this dark tool hiding in the shadows, nor does it need anyone to become a killer!
For Leonai, this was not only the loss of her livelihood, but also the loss of her identity and sense of belonging that she had relied on for so long.

The gray world in which she used to live is gradually disappearing, replaced by a new world of light and order.

Leone knew this was a good thing, but she also had to consider the issue of filling her stomach.

Faced with the sudden change, Leone had to put down her weapons and embark on the road to find a new life. Fortunately, fate did not seem to completely abandon her.

With her outstanding appearance and unique temperament, Leone soon found a new job - working as a signboard girl in a bustling tavern.

This tavern is located in the heart of the city, attracting all kinds of customers every day, and the appearance of Leone adds a different style to this place.

However, for Leone, this seemingly glamorous job hides unspeakable pain.

She used to be the hunter who roamed freely in the darkness, and every mission was a challenge to her own limits. But now, she can only stand at the door of the tavern, greeting every guest coming in and out with a smile, repeating the boring actions day after day.

Her heart was filled with resentment and loss, like a beast imprisoned in a cage, eager to break free and regain her own freedom and passion.

She missed the days of excitement and challenges, and the pleasure of walking on the edge of life and death and fighting against fate.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she would always sit alone in a corner of the pub, looking at the flickering lights outside the window, with unspeakable loneliness and unwillingness surging in her heart.

The other people in the night raid were fine. Brand realized his wish and went on a leisurely journey. He no longer needed to be haunted by evil spirits, so he handed in his imperial weapon.

Chi Tong opened a barbecue restaurant. Even though she had received training in Chang Wei's small classroom, Chi Tong herself did not have much vision. A peaceful world and everyone living and working in peace and contentment were already what Chi Tong pursued.

Not to mention that Noxus has already gone above and beyond to fulfill her vision.

Besides, isn't there Marin fighting for it? As the Archon, Marin will definitely make Noxus a better place. I can't compare to Marin in this regard.

As for the mediocre Tatsumi trio, they successfully joined the army this time without any accidents.

Most of the nobles were liquidated by Noxus, and the mistakes made in the old empire era did not mean they could be forgiven in the new empire era.
