LOL: The days of cultivating immortals in Rune Continent

Chapter 82 Uncompromising

"Black Lion Rowan, what are you doing?"

At the port, the demon hunter looked at the sword mark in front of him with horror, then looked at Rowan, who was holding the heavy sword in one hand and holding Lux with the other hand, with an intense look of fear on his face.

If this sword had not hit the ground, but had struck their bodies
"goo"

Swallowing his saliva, the captain of the Demon Hunters couldn't imagine such a situation. It was only half a year, and the Black Lion Rowan had become even more powerful!
"This is the king's order! Are you trying to prevent us from catching heretics? Are you thinking of treason?!"

"Treason? Don't put that accusation on me." Luo Wen sneered and looked at the demon hunter sarcastically: "If you put that accusation on me, and I really commit treason, can you bear the responsibility?"

"you--"

"If you want to commit treason, then I won't bring Lux back!"

"I will personally take Lux to see the king, I don't need you!"

Hand Lux ​​over to these demon hunters?
How can it be!

Not to mention that Rowan promised Lux ​​that he would protect her when he returned to Demacia. Even if Rowan hadn't promised, he would never allow the demon hunter to get involved with Lux.

The captain of the demon hunters paused, then he lost his temper.

What can be done? !

Black Lion Rowan has completely turned into a monster!
Unless the Fearless Vanguard arrives at the port right now, they won’t be able to stop them alone!

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the sound of horse hooves rang out.

Mette was seen sitting on a horse, with palace guards beside her.

When he arrived at the scene, he saw the sword marks on the ground. His eyes froze for a moment. Then, he saw Rowan holding a sword to protect Lux. He stroked his beard and said, "Rowan, put down the sword."

Rowan looked at Mette. He still had a good impression of this royal butler who had shown kindness to him many times.

So, Rowan listened to him and put down his weapon, but always stood in front of Lux.

"Don't be nervous, come with me, the king wants to see you." Mette dismounted and walked to Rowan, saying softly.

"Okay." Rowan nodded, then he looked at Kasa and said, "Please send someone to take my friend to my manor. She has nothing to do with this matter."

"Who is she?" Mette frowned.

In the current situation, Demacia is about to close all the gates, prohibiting people from going out and outsiders from coming in, but Rowan brought back a stranger?

"A Shurima, my friend, please rest assured that as long as you do not take the initiative to hurt her, she will not do anything, but if someone does not have eyes, then my friend will not be lenient."

Kasa walked up to Mette silently.

Mette hesitated for a moment, then waved her hand and called two guards to take Kassa to Rowan's manor.

At the same time, a demon hunter came up and took out a pair of magic-suppressing stone shackles, wanting to put them on Lux.

"She must take this with her," the demon hunter said seriously.

Mette looked at the magic-forbidden stone, feeling a little hesitant.

Lux is a mage after all, and no one knows whether she will pose a threat to the king's safety when she meets the king. It is only right to put her in magic shackles.

But when Mette saw Rowan push the demon hunter away, then reach out to take the magic-suppressing stone shackles and break them directly, she chose to keep silent.

Well, young people are just hot-tempered.

------

It was late at night on Throne Mountain, but the Throne Mountain was brightly lit.

Ever since the Dragonbird Rider captured Lux ​​two days ago, the entire Demacia leadership has been on alert.

The impact of this incident was too great. If it was not handled properly, it would completely create a rift between the nobles and the people. This was not what the nobles of Demacia wanted to see, and it was definitely not what Jarvan III wanted to see. At this moment, all the nobles with titles came to the royal palace on the throne mountain. Jarvan III sat on the high seat, closed his eyes and rested, with Zhao Xin standing beside him.

Tiana stood in another corner, and behind her, Garen also arrived at the scene.

Jarvan IV was also present. Garen's affairs were his affairs. As the next heir to Demacia, although Jarvan IV had not yet taken power, he already had his own team and no one would ignore his voice.

After waiting for a while, a soldier rushed in, saluted with a knight's salute and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, the heretic Laxana Crownguard has arrived!"

"Let her in."

"Yes!"

After a moment, the first person to appear was not Lux, but Rowan. He walked forward and accepted the scrutiny of the Demacia senior officials.

The eyes of the Illuminator Order were on him, the eyes of Lady Lestara were on him, and the eyes of Tiana's Crown Guard were also on him.

"Rowan, what are you doing here?" Jarvan III looked at Rowan and frowned.

Luo Wen said directly: "To prevent Lux from being bullied."

As soon as these words were spoken, discussions immediately broke out at the scene. Tiana's gaze lingered on Rowan for a while, and a hint of satisfaction appeared in the depths of her eyes. Then, she looked at Lux who appeared behind Rowan.

She looked a little sloppy. This was the first time Tiana saw Lux so sloppy.

Her once beautiful and smooth blonde hair was now tangled together, gray and dull, her clothes had several holes in them, and she smelled fishy.

But Lux walked in openly.

She had nothing to be afraid of anymore, as Luo Wen was always with her. Then, she saw her brother, who was looking at her with worry in his eyes.

Your best friends and closest people are around you, so what is there to be afraid of?

Besides, even if I was afraid, would they let me go? Even if I apologized for being a mage, would they accept it?
What's more, as a mage, what did I do wrong? !
"Laxana Crownguard, greetings to His Majesty." Lux walked up to Rowan, leaned slightly towards Jarvan III, and spoke loudly.

"Lux, do you plead guilty? You have concealed your identity for decades. As a child of the Crownguard family, shouldn't you have reported yourself to the Demon Hunters the moment you knew you were a mage? Do you still have a sense of noble honor in your heart?" Jarvan III said in a deep voice.

As soon as he said this, some nobles at the scene could no longer sit still and their faces turned very ugly.

In their families, aren't there children who are magicians?
"Your Majesty, a year ago, I was also worried and afraid because of my identity as a mage. I thought I was guilty, but now, I don't plead guilty." Lux shook her head at Jarvan III, "I am not guilty, but if you insist that I am guilty, then my only sin is that I was born in Demacia."

"Ridiculous!" A noble stood up and shouted, "Crown Guard, are you saying that Demacia is bad?"

Lux looked at the noble, bowed and saluted, then said: "Mr. Ersman, this time in Xiongdu, I have seen a lot of things and met a lot of people. I love this country very much, but this does not prevent me from thinking that there are bad things about this country."

"Do some things really require me to speak them out? Is our country really fair and just? Are the creeds we are so proud of really being followed?" Lux did not give in at all.

"Oh, then tell me, what do you think has destroyed the fairness and justice of Demacia?" Jarvan III suddenly spoke, smiling and asking with interest.

As soon as he spoke, a noble could not help but say, "Your Majesty."

Lux looked at Jarvan III, her eyes full of fatigue, but she was extremely serious: "Your Majesty, I am proud to be a Demacia, but Demacia is not always right. This time when I went to Shurima, I encountered many things and many powerful enemies."

"Galio was summoned by me, and the reason I summoned Galio was because I encountered an irresistible force, and Galio was unable to defeat the opponent."

"This world is far more dangerous than we imagined. Our enemies are not just Noxus."

"Besides, it's unfair. For this matter, all a demon hunter needs to do is go around every noble's house to find out, right?"

Lux said uncompromisingly.

And her words also made many nobles look livid.
