This is the door.

The target is behind the door.

After a brief deep breath, Katarina burst through the door.

The light in the room was not too bright, and was even a little dim. The flickering firelight stretched the figure in front of the desk very long.

It's still the armor that has been baptized by war, it's still the coat that has turned a little white after washing, it's still the little nobleman's style of hiding his hands in the coat... Nothing seems to have changed about that unsmiling counselor. .It seems like I have been sitting there from a few months ago until now.

It's just that the gray strands on his hairline have become more obvious.

Without any words, Catalina rushed forward into the study, with the dagger in her hand having only one target - the fragile neck.It has long been coveted by countless people.

For a skilled assassin, the distance of a few meters is only the blink of an eye.

The blade fell.Less than thirty centimeters from the target's throat.

But...the distance of thirty centimeters is eternity.

clang!After a crisp sound, the blade stopped falling.

The blade, as clean as a mirror, reflected Katarina's frown.

It also reflected the dazzling scarlet light.

That devil's arm...he pulled it out of his coat...

"Good evening, Caterina du Cecao." Swain didn't even raise his head, his eyes still stayed on the parchment with densely written words. "Maybe I should say hello to your father, but I haven't seen him in a long time."

"..." Katarina gritted her teeth and used all her strength to press on the dagger.

But it's just futile.

Ding--!

Another crisp sound.

Swain moved his demonic arm, and a broken blade fragment flew out from his fingertips.

The blade fragments scratched the delicate cheek of the female assassin, and then pierced the wall of the study room.

"If you want to hurt my life, you are still not qualified." Swain used his other hand to turn the parchment to the back, where another piece of equally crucial information was written on it. "You still need to practice, preferably under the guidance of General Du Cacao... Look at this battle report, the Assassin's Guild has taken off the head of a Demacia general."

Catalina stepped back, the slight sting on her face making her extremely cautious.

If she hadn't dodged quickly enough just now, the carotid artery might have been broken now...

"Who asked you to come?" Swain asked casually, "I have heard about your feats during this period... You took over the Du Couture family in place of your father, and the Assassin's Guild also It’s your bag...Darius? No, I believe he wouldn’t do such a stupid thing.”

"..." Catalina said nothing.

Swain was not in a hurry, and continued to ask while flipping through the documents: "Is that the Black Rose? Hmm... This cunning magic association has great ambitions, and the possibility is not small."

Katerina quietly pulled out another dagger.

Then, Swain closed the document in his hand.

"But no matter who it is, I have already given you a chance... Since you don't want to become a gear that turns the empire, then destroy it reasonably."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of birds flapping their wings outside the window - very dense.

The floor-to-ceiling windows behind Swain were surrounded by terrifying ravens.

Each of them spread their wings as if they were claiming sovereignty... Each of their eyes exuded bloodthirsty scarlet...

Catalina suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

But just when she was about to fight to the death, there was a sudden rush of footsteps in the aisle behind her.

"Commander!" was the anxious cry of the guard.

Not long after, more than a dozen guards poured into the study and surrounded Catalina, who was alone.

"Protect the Commander-in-Chief!" the leading guard shouted loudly, and a group of people pointed their halberds at the assassin at the same time.

Seeing this, Swain stopped with a smile. "Send this young assassin to Draven to be judged with honor."

"Yes!" The guards received the order and immediately attacked Catalina.

Fortunately, these ordinary guards are still easy to deal with.

Katarina almost teleported behind one of the guards, and dropped the dagger in her hand - it seems that today she will inevitably send the Noxian's weapon into the heart of the Noxian. .

Puff puff--!The sound of flesh breaking and blood splattering could be heard endlessly.

But Swain just sat back calmly and opened the book on the table.

The movement here has attracted the attention of the guards, and soon more soldiers will come over... no less than a hundred people.Even thousands of people.The military reserves of the royal capital can even wipe out a country.

He was too lazy to do anything, and he didn't want to expose his demonic power in front of too many people, so he just handed over the ridiculous assassin to the soldiers.

Until a guard walked towards him unusually.

After a moment of doubt, he decisively used the devil's power.

But it was too late.

The halberd in the guard's hand suddenly turned into a staff, and strange magic chains shot out.

Dang Cang——!Chains wrapped around Swain's demonic arms.

The guard also revealed his prototype as an assassin.

A tall woman with pale skin.

Of course it is the "Pale Lady" who has been disappearing for thousands of years.

"Kid Catalina was not sent by me. How could you blame me so casually?" LeBlanc's smile was still full of teasing as always, "But...it seems to be okay."

"I should have noticed you earlier..." Swain sighed softly, and the demon's arm trapped by the magic chain began to slowly withdraw. "It seems that the Trifali Council is still too kind to the Black Rose. My methods should be stronger - even if I know that it is also difficult to eradicate you."

"Haha~" LeBlanc chuckled, with a joking look on his face.

But she was already a little surprised.

Her magic chain... was forcibly pulled back by the other party.

It seems that the devil's power is stronger than she imagined.

"Don't blame me, Swain—I originally wanted you to run Noxus for a while, but now there's a better candidate."

"Then you can give it a try." Swain's eyes flickered, and demonic power burst out in his arms.

Poof!The magic chain snapped.

"I am the will of Noxus!"

All the demonic power was released, and the mortal body began to mutate... A pair of raven wings grew from Swain's back, covering the floor-to-ceiling windows that were more than two meters wide.

Seeing this, LeBlanc no longer had the will to fight in her heart - she still had many methods, and it wouldn't hurt to continue fighting, but she didn't want to.

It doesn't make sense.

As the saying goes, there is specialization in the arts. She is not weak in frontal combat, but that does not mean that she is the best at frontal combat.

What she usually hates most is being violent with others.

"The power of the devil looks really scary... I'm scared. Then we'll see you again."

After saying that, LeBlanc's figure disappeared instantly.

When she appeared again, she had already appeared on the top of the tower a hundred meters away with Catalina, leaving a room full of guards staring at her.

Not only the guards, but also Katarina was a little confused: "Are you... the pale lady...? You and Swain are enemies... we have to kill him now...!"

"You can go if you want, kid." LeBlanc covered her mouth and chuckled while pretending to let go, "I've had enough time, and I don't want to waste any more energy fighting with others."

"What's the meaning?"

"It means you can go home and sleep."

"...?"

"Can't you figure it out? Then don't think about it, Miss Bait, who is so cute and stupid."

LeBlanc waved towards Swain and then disappeared.

Catalina was still confused.

Until she realized that Swain's attention was not on them at all.

That terrifying being who has mastered the power of demons...is looking at the door with a serious face?

There... that's...

A man wearing a fox mask...

He is...that guy!He finally came!The guy who is always lazy!

"Good evening, Jericho Swain." The man wearing the fox mask saluted gracefully, not caring that he was surrounded by a group of guards.

Swain narrowed his eyes, but did not fold the demon wings on his back.

"Witness...?" He frowned first, then shook his head. "To be honest, I'm not surprised...it's just that your greed makes me disgusted."

"Yes, a mere token cannot satisfy my appetite." Chen Ce smiled, "What I want is your position."

"How dare an outsider covet the top spot in the Trifali Council?"

"The respected Hand of Noxus has agreed, and the Faceless Men have also acquiesced. I also ask that you voluntarily abdicate."

"Hand of Noxus?" Swain couldn't help but smile when he heard the name. "The Hand of Noxus is the most loyal warrior of the Empire. How could he assist you, an outsider, to harm the Empire?"

"I am an outsider, but some people are not." Chen Ce shrugged, "Compared to that person, your bloodline is an outsider."

"My family has existed since the founding of Noxus, and it played a vital role during Darkwill's succession...Me, an outsider? Hahaha..." Swain smiled disdainfully. .

Then, he didn't intend to talk nonsense with the unscrupulous person in front of him anymore - he had given the other party many benefits, but what he got was such a greedy "betrayal"?

Forget it...just think of it as a waste of a useful chess piece.

This is fine for the empire.

"Patience is a virtue, but it has its limits... Die on Noxus."

Swain raised his demonic arm, and the scarlet energy condensed into substance - like a big hand separated from the body, dragging the mortal in front of him into hell.

Seeing this, Chen Ce dodged sideways as if he had predicted this move in advance.

Hmm...well, it was indeed predicted in advance.

Because he is too familiar with Swain's skills.

[Never Go Again] is a way to imprison and drag the enemy.

"It's a bit slow." Chen Ce swung his sickle and taunted the opponent while killing the surrounding guards. "Show me all the demonic power."

Hearing this, Swain smiled contemptuously.

"If this is your last wish..."

Ga--!Ga--!Ga--!

The ravens outside the fortress suddenly began to scream.A large group.Almost the entire sky turned red and black.

The wings on Swain's back grew larger again, and the plump wings flapped gently, taking his body off the ground.

Countless terrifying demonic energies radiated around him, greedily absorbing the life force of all living beings.

【Devil Sublimation】

One of Peeping Demon's signature abilities.

This move is a bit difficult for Chen Ce in his mortal state to resist.

So he chose...

Throwing the darkin scythe that allowed him to transform into his darkin form on the ground.

【Are you crazy!Let me kill him! ! 】Raast started yelling.

But Chen Ce acted as if he didn't hear anything and just silently mobilized some special energy in his body.

Although there were already hundreds of Noxian soldiers coming.

Although an entire army was already surrounded below the Immortal Fortress.

Although all Noxians are watching every move here.
