Chapter 17 Demacia Arena

Walking on the path to the arena, Lux approached Rowan and whispered to him, "I know this may be annoying, but Rowan, can you tell me what magic you can do today?"

"This is really the first time I've met another wizard, so I'm really, really curious!"

Without waiting for Luo Wen to answer, Lux continued, "You always give me the cold shoulder. We have been out together six times. Excluding the three times when my brother accompanied me, you could have told me about the other three times we went out together, but you didn't tell me."

"It's not that I don't believe you, I'm just curious, really just curious!"

Lux puffed her lips and spoke a series with her chubby little face.

The baby fat on her face has not completely disappeared, which makes her look very cute.

Hearing Lux say this, Rowan snorted twice and pointed to the alley in the path.

Perhaps because there was a competition in the arena today, all the Demacians went to watch the fun. In the past, there would always be some older uncles and aunts sitting there, chatting about family matters, but there were none today.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you today, okay?"

"Really?" Lux's eyes widened.

Rowan took Lux into the alley, then blocked Lux ​​in the alley. Rowan turned his back to the alley entrance and stood face to face with Lux in the narrow space.

This made Lux's face turn a little red.

But I don’t know if Lux was shy or excited to see Rowan’s magic.

"Look!"

Luo Wen put his hands together and activated the magic power in his body. Then, he slowly separated his hands, and a piece of green vine appeared in Luo Wen's hands.

But Lux's expression suddenly changed. She looked down at the vine in Rowan's hand, then looked up at Rowan. Then, she stretched out her index finger and gently tapped the vine. She said in a puzzled voice, "Isn't this a magic trick?"

"?"

"It's magic!" said Rowan.

"Is this magic?" Lux obviously didn't believe it.

She looked around and saw no one, so she stretched out her hand to Luo Wen, spread out her small hand with the palm facing up.

Then, a faint light appeared on Lux's palm, forming a small ball of colorful light. A holy aura emerged. Lux said to Rowan seriously, "This is magic."

"."

Damn, is it a big deal to have a strong talent for magic?

Give me a few years, and I will definitely catch up with you!
Rowan bit his back teeth and looked at Lux's palm. The faint light on her palm radiated warmth.

Rowan also raised his hand, palm facing up, and a flame appeared with a "swoosh", and Lux's eyes suddenly lit up.

"This is magic! It's small! But very cute!"

"???"

"Let's go. I don't want to play anymore." Luo Wen turned and left.

Lux looked at Rowan from behind, confused, and trotted over to him and said, "Hey, why are you angry?"

Rowan ignored Lux.

It’s so hurtful!

What does it mean that small can also be cute?
Am I small? Am I really small?
I, Luo Wen, am not young at all except for my age!

"Are you really angry?"

Lux asked cautiously.

"Well, Luo Wen, I don't know why you're angry, but if I apologize, will you feel better? I can apologize."

Ha ha
------

Half an hour later, the duel arena in the central square area of ​​Demacia was already full of people.

Demacia does have an arena, but the function of this arena is different from that of Noxus. It is not a place to put slaves to fight in the arena for the sponsors to watch. The arena in Demacia is a place for nobles and knights to duel, and it is a place for Demacians to resolve their grudges.

In the arena, once a life-and-death agreement is signed, life and death don’t matter.

This is one of the few places in Demacia where killing people is legal.

Rowan walked into the arena, but because he and Lux ​​arrived late, there were no seats left.

But, can this stump the eldest daughter of the Mianwei family?
Lux took out a beacon and handed it to the person in charge of the arena. Then Rowan followed Lux ​​to the exclusive area for the nobility.

The traffic in this place is less than that outside, and there are also exclusive rooms for watching duels.

The dawn light slanted into the hall through the narrow pointed window. Rowan lay by the window and looked down. He saw a blond man holding a sword, standing alone in the arena.

"Who are the two dueling today?" Rowan turned and looked at Lux. He and Lux ​​were the only two people in the room.

Lux also stood by the window and said after thinking for a moment, "The Laurent family and the Ravens family."

After listening to this, Rowan paused for a moment, and an idea came to his mind. He asked Lux: "Laurent family? So the person who hasn't come yet is a woman?"

"How do you know?" Lux looked at Rowan. She had also gotten to know Rowan a little over the past few days.

After the impulse of her first meeting with Rowan, Lux of course sent people to investigate Rowan and collected Rowan's information.

Born in the remote town of Qingfeng, he is the adopted son of the mayor and grew up in the town. He was then discovered by Ranger Quinn and recommended to the Bouvier family, thus joining the army.

Therefore, there should be no reason for Rowan to know about Fiona Laurent, right?

Although Lux had never met Fiona, she had heard many stories about her. Fiona was a woman who liked to wield guns and swords, and she was a competitive woman.

You don't see the etiquette of a noble lady in her.

As the daughter of the head of the Laurent family, Sebastian, Fiona is the apple of the eye of the Laurent family, but she doesn't look like a girl at all. If it weren't for the strong objection of Sebastian, the head of the Laurent family, Lacus even doubted that she would still join the army.

After all, the Demacia army never said that women were not allowed to join the army.

"Just know one thing. I'm from the country, but my comrades are not." Rowan looked at Lux as if she were a fool.

Lux stamped her feet in displeasure when she saw Rowan looking at her like that, and then said, "Fiona is very powerful. Although she is a woman, she is a frequent visitor to this arena and has won many battles. I have heard many stories about her."

"The reason for this duel is that the other party spoke ill of her in the Chamber of Commerce, saying that as the eldest daughter of the Laurent family, she should have married honestly and should not have picked up a sword. He also said that she did not look like a noble and did not know manners. Therefore, he was picked on by her."

"that's it?"

"that's it."

"Is it worth risking your life for such a small matter?" Luo Wen felt confused.

"Is this a small matter?" Lux looked at Rowan. The little boy showed a serious expression on his face and said seriously, "This is a big matter, Rowan. For us, reputation is far more important than name. Honor is more important than anything else. He destroyed her reputation. This is a big deal."

"." Luo Wen stopped talking.

Although he had lived in Demacia for ten years, there were no nobles in Qingfeng Town. Everyone lived and worked in peace and harmony. Therefore, Rowan did not understand the nobles' thoughts.

I especially cannot understand the nobles of Demacia.

But. Respect!

"What a pity. Although Fiona is very powerful, the truth is just as that man said. Her fate has been determined since she was born." Lux sighed and continued, "The Laurent family needs her to devote herself. She is destined to be a political pawn. In the complex network of relationships in the heroic city, in this game of vertical and horizontal alliances, she is destined to become a tool for family political marriage."

Rowan nodded.

Luo Wen didn't really know much about Sword Lady's story, because there seemed to be several versions of Sword Lady's story? Luo Wen was not sure if the story he knew was the correct version.

But Lux's words made Rowan look at Lux and asked, "What about you?"

"Me? I don't need it." Lux said immediately.

"My family is the largest family in Demacia. My aunt Tiana is the marshal of Demacia. My brother will become a Fearless Vanguard warrior in the future. My uncle is an envoy of the royal capital, so I don't have to worry about this." Lux said with some relief.

"Well, you are the noble Lady Laxana Crownguard," Rowan teased.

"Don't call me that, please call me Lux." She pouted.

Just then, cheers came from outside the stadium.

Rowan and Lux ​​looked over together.

Then a woman wearing light armor and with short burgundy hair that glowed in the sun walked out. She had a beautiful face, sharp and heroic features, a haughty look, and she held a rapier in her hand and walked to the center of the field with graceful long legs.

It's Fiona Laurent.

Miss Swordswoman in the Demacia Arena.
