All Heavens: Start with Monster Hunter

Chapter 173 Aunt
Looking up, Lux looked at Silas again, but this time, there was something different in her eyes.

"Mr. Silas, I can sense the grievance in your words."

"But you must be hiding something from me, right?"

"Have you ever hurt an innocent person?"

In the cell, Silas lowered his head and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

To be honest, I felt it the moment the little girl entered the cell.

What a powerful magic power it is, the amount is simply terrifying, and such a powerful force is actually hidden in the thin body of this little girl named Lux.

According to Silas's past experience, such terrifying magic power should have been discovered by demon hunters long ago.

But now he can appear here so brazenly, and there is not even any guard to watch over him.

This is enough to show how special this little girl's identity is.

In an instant, Silas understood that his chance to escape from this hellhole might lie in Lux.

That's why I take the initiative to speak and try to impress the other person.

But what Silas didn't expect was that the pretty boy following the girl seemed to know a lot about him.

Moreover, that perspective, as if he could see everything clearly from an outsider's perspective, made him inexplicably angry.

Fortunately, Silas had already had a heart of steel. Although anger was burning in his heart, he did not lose his mind. He knew that even if he lost his temper and argued with the other party, the final result would be nothing more than anger.

He could neither change his current situation nor leave this dark prison.

So, after a moment of silence, Silas spoke:
"I don't know. Because I have no choice."

"Faced with those guys, I could only run away, and I dared only to run away."

"They want to catch me, and I don't want them to, it's as simple as that."

"And what you said, Miss Lux, I don't know what position you are in, but I want to know, if you were in your position, what would you choose to do?"

"Will you surrender like a skilled hand?"

Lux's face was puffed up, but she could tell that Silas was telling the truth.

I wanted to say something more, but I couldn't.

I was speechless for a while.

"Okay, Lux, if you keep listening, your brother will be sad."

But Li Qing next to him was too lazy to listen any further. It was true that Silas was unlucky, and there was nothing much to say.

Persecuting mages but tolerating nobles is Demacia's fault.
But Li Qing was too lazy to care about these things. He was just a hunter. He could take care of something if he saw something he was unhappy about, but if he didn’t see anything, he would just pretend he didn’t know.

Otherwise, he estimated that he would have to spend all his energy to transform each world.

That was not his job, he was just a passer-by.

As for Sylas, it was not his fault that he was oppressed by Demacia because he was born a mage, nor was it his fault that he harmed innocent people when he chose to escape.

The only thing he did wrong that made Li Qing unhappy was that he tricked Lux ​​in front of him.

After hearing what Li Qing said, Lux was stunned. She turned her head to look at Li Qing, not understanding how she was suddenly related to her brother:
"What do you mean, Galen?"

"Do you know him? Is Mr. Silas related to my brother?"

Silas was also a little confused.

Galen?

Who is that?

He has been in prison for more than ten years and has almost forgotten the people outside. Could he also be a demon hunter?

Li Qing smiled, looked at Lux and said:
"It doesn't matter now, but if you keep in touch with Silas, when Mr. Silas runs away and contacts the barbarians of Freljord to attack Demacia, it will be related to your brother."

"Oh, by the way, Jarvan IV is also involved."

"Because if that's the result, he'll also be without a dad."

Lux's face was full of question marks, and she didn't understand what Li Qing was talking about.

What does it mean that if she continues to contact Mr. Silas, Mr. Silas will run away in the future?

Is this some kind of prophetic magic?
"Don't keep me in suspense, Li Qing."

"Did you use some kind of prophecy? Otherwise, why would you say that?"

Lux was not the type to be shy, so she asked Li Qing directly out of curiosity.

Li Qing scratched his head speechlessly, feeling that it didn't matter whether he said it or not. Since Lux asked, he might as well tell her.

"I just saw some pictures of the future."

"For example, you became a member of the Illuminati, came into contact with Mr. Silas, and were tricked by him into absorbing your magic power. He escaped and recruited mages to join forces with the people of Freljord to attack Demacia, and your brother Garen was beaten up by him."

"I remember Jarvan III was killed by him personally, right?"

"Anyway, there's a lot of noise in Demacia."

Li Qing shrugged, recalling the plots he had seen in his previous life, and told everything he could remember.

As for whether or not to believe it, that is Lux’s own business. Anyway, he said it.

And for Lux, it was obvious that she believed it.

After all, in her opinion, the mysterious Li Qing has many magical qualities, so it would not be surprising if he has abilities similar to prophecy, as all the old grandfathers in storybooks are like that.

Although Li Qing doesn't look like an old grandfather, the way he appears is similar!

Thinking of this, Lux, who originally had a bad impression of Silas, suddenly lost all purpose in continuing to communicate with him.

It is true that she is easily sympathetic, but after knowing that contact with Mr. Silas would bring disaster to most of the people around her, Lux quickly made a choice.

Silas, who was equally shocked, also had a look of shock in his pupils.

This time he raised his head and looked at Li Qing carefully, sensing any possible fluctuations of magic power, but in the end he found nothing.

A disdainful smile appeared on his lips:
"As expected, being full of lies is a characteristic of you upper-class gentlemen."

This was almost an obvious mockery towards Li Qing.

However, Li Qing was also a good-tempered person. He did not choose to answer, but held Lux's hand with one hand and gently fanned Silas with the other hand.

Then, in Silas's confused eyes, a heavy wind pressure suddenly came from his back, pressing him down in an instant with an irresistible force.

"Hmph!!" Silas could only let out a muffled groan, because at this moment he couldn't even open his mouth.

Lux was startled and covered her mouth.

Li Qing's hand fell on her head, and a voice came:

"Lacus, although what I say may sound strange."

"But you still have to remember, never trust anyone easily, except your aunt and brother, and of course, me."

"Just stick to your principles. Don't pay attention to strange things, and don't be shaken."

"Otherwise, you will regret it sooner or later."

The little princess's adventure game is over.

She walked back onto the street with Li Qing, but compared to her initial enthusiasm, Lux now looked a little wilted.

He lowered his head and walked slowly.

He kicked the stones on the roadside with one foot, but forgot that he was wearing his favorite shoes. The next second he squatted down in a hurry to check if his shoes were damaged.

"Fool!"

Li Qing gave a simple and direct comment.

Lux immediately lost her confusion and looked up at Li Qing angrily. She stood up and argued with Li Qing:
"Who are you calling stupid?"

"It's obvious that you don't even know who I call an idiot. If you're not an idiot, then who is?"

"You actually called me an idiot? Li Qing, you are the idiot!"

Lux's face puffed up with anger again. She put her hands on her hips and didn't even care about her ladylike image. She stood on the street and started arguing loudly with Li Qing.

The civilians around were startled by the girl's sudden temper and looked over.

After realizing it was Lux, he immediately looked away with amusement.

In the capital of Demacia, Lux is really popular. This young lady from the Crownguard family always faces everyone with a gentle and kind smile, so almost no one will have any ill will towards her.

Of course, this is not absolute. For example, there is only one now. No, it has become two!
Just when Lux was still arguing with Li Qing whether she was a fool, a woman surrounded by guards and with an aura as majestic as a mountain slowly walked over. Looking at Lux who was playing with a strange man, her face suddenly became gloomy.

A cold voice came out of his mouth, just like the cold wind of winter blowing into Lux's ears:

"Lux!"

"Why are you here at this hour when you're not doing your homework?"

The moment the voice reached Lux's ears, the little girl who was just furious suddenly froze in place.

Then he slowly turned his neck and looked at the source of the sound behind him. His eyelids twitched a few times:

"Aunt Tiana, if I say that appearing here was just an accident, would you believe it?"

There is no doubt that Lux was quite panicked at this moment.

It didn't matter that she was caught by her aunt and ran away secretly. She was loved by everyone and would always be forgiven. Although her aunt was strict, she always gave her a break.

As long as my mother doesn't know about it.

So what Lux is afraid of at this moment is Lee Sin.

As a wizard, I couldn't imagine what would happen if my aunt discovered my identity.

So Lux almost didn't think twice and distanced herself from Lee Sin, then acted as if she didn't know Lee Sin at all and laughed:
"Aunt, I'll be back right away!"

"Don't tell my mother!"

As the Grand Marshal of Demacia at the moment, Tiana Crownguard can be said to be a big figure in Demacia, second only to the emperor. Faced with the lies of her little niece, she can tell what is true and what is false without even thinking.

She saw all the interactions between Lux and this stranger just now.

It’s not that Tiana thinks too much, but Lux’s sensitive identity causes her to attract people with ulterior motives.

As Lux's aunt, she would never let Lux come into contact with these people, not only for the sake of Demacia, but also for the sake of the Crownguard family and Lux ​​herself.

But facing Lux's silly and pleading face, the mighty female general sighed slightly in her heart.

The little girl did have fewer friends, although she had some of her peers from aristocratic families.

But girls are generally jealous of Lux, and Lux ​​looks down on those spoiled noble ladies.

Most boys admired Lux, but Lux didn't like those arrogant guys. Instead, she often wandered around the streets and made some friends.

However, many of these friends were actually people she specially arranged for them.

Later, Lux discovered this, and since then, she made fewer friends.

Now this stranger seems to be Lux's new friend.

So even though she was angry in her heart, Tiana was willing to give her niece some face at least on the surface.

Tiana nodded calmly and said:
"I can bypass you this time and not tell your mother, but you have to promise to finish your work."

"Otherwise, I will punish you by not allowing you to leave the house for a week."

Lux's face turned pale immediately, and she couldn't help but look back at Li Qing. But as soon as she turned back, she realized that something was wrong.

Sure enough, after she turned around and looked at Li Qing, Tiana also spoke directly:
"By the way, is this young man your new friend?"

Facing her aunt's question, Lux obviously couldn't lie, and a stiff smile appeared on her face: "That's right, aunt, his name is Li Qing, he's my new friend. But we just met, we're not familiar with each other yet."

Tiana's heart became more and more heavy.

The more Lux tried to hide it, the more worried she became. She no longer hesitated and spoke directly to Li Qing in the distance:
"Are you Lux's friend? I'm Lux's aunt. Nice to meet you, young man. Can you come over and chat for a few minutes?"

A helpless smile appeared on Li Qing's face.

He shook his head and slowly walked to Tiana. He was not intimidated by her aura, but came to her calmly and took a quick look at her serious face.

Although traces of time can still be seen, the beauty has not completely faded from this face.

With a face full of heroism and majesty, the dignity she brings when entering and leaving the battlefield makes Tiana's charm infinitely increased.

It's Cao Zei's dream type!

Unfortunately, Li Qing doesn't really like being a thief.

So after taking another quick look at Lux's aunt, he simply bowed his head slightly to show respect:
"Hello, Marshal Tiana."

"My name is Li Qing, and I'm also Lux's friend. Nice to meet you."
