At the sacrifice of a hero.
"Clean the battlefield..." The general waved his hand tiredly, the tips of his white hair hidden under the scarred helmet.
"I will personally convey the news of the death of the hero Barrett Bouvier to His Majesty the King..."
The daily prayers are over.
Sona sat down holding her piano, and then accidentally let out a sweet "thump~".
It's not because her hand holding the piano accidentally touched the strings, but...
Her overly full breasts accidentally pressed against the strings.
"Pfft~" The girl beside her laughed almost simultaneously.
Sona blushed and turned her head, only to see her dear sister "teasing" her with sign language:
[Our great musician is so amazing, he can play the piano without using his hands~]
【Sister Kashina...! ] Sona responded in sign language and lowered her head in embarrassment.
is not……
It's not like she wanted to grow so big...
"You're here again, Kashina." A gentle and majestic voice sounded.
Kashina immediately stopped teasing.
"Don't always bully Sona. You are a sister, and you have to behave like a sister." Lestara, the mother of the two girls, taught Kashina while walking slowly over.
Then she also glanced at the proud fullness of Sona's chest.
"But it's really big... No!"
"See, mother thinks so too~" Kashina laughed again.
Sona blushed to her ears.
"Ahem..." Lestara noticed his gaffe and quickly changed the topic elsewhere - or to get back on track:
"The news came this morning that the Battle of Mourn's Gate has ended - ended with the withdrawal of the Noxians. This is really good news worth celebrating."
"Long live Demacia!" Kashina, an outgoing and lively person, raised her hands and cheered.
【This is really great. 】The introverted and gentle Sona smiled and gestured with sign language.
The three of them were in a good mood at this time.
Not only because they are Noxians, but also because the end of the war means...
Lestara's husband and father of the two girls will be returning home soon.
He has been away from home for so long. Although they visited him on the way, how could a brief meeting be enough to erase their deep longing?
"Calculating the time, it should be almost the same." Lestara added, "The letter came back this morning, but the war ended three days ago, and your father is almost back~"
"Great!" Kashina hugged Sona happily, and the latter smiled back.
Such a warm scene made Lestara reveal a happy smile, "So, let's prepare well today - welcome our hero to triumph with a big table of sumptuous food. What's this plan?"
"Perfect!"
[Yeah, Sona feels good. 】
The two girls quickly got into action, preparing the kitchen utensils and tidying up the kitchen.
Lestara is also going out to buy some good food.
She put on her shoes, opened the door to the warm sunshine with a warm smile.
But the neat streets weren't the first thing that caught her eye.
But a Demacian soldier.
His badge bears two wing-like symbols from the border; his shoulder straps are tied with a red ribbon, symbolizing his position as general.
"Hello, Madam Bouvier..." The general from the border lowered his head and his tone seemed a little heavy.
Most of Lestara's joyful mood disappeared instantly.
Her stunned gaze moved from the other party downwards.
The general holds a sword in both hands.
And that sword was all too familiar to her.
That's...is...
Yes......
"I'm sorry to tell you..."
"Mr. Barrett Bouvier..."
"Sacrificed at the Gate of Sorrow..."
Chen Ce wanted to avoid some tragedies, but it was too late.
When he rushed back to Noxus from the Freljord, Swain had already launched an attack on Demacia - right at the Gate of Mourn, and dispatched the strongest Trefari Legion in the Noxus Empire.
Even if he rushed to the Gate of Sorrow immediately and non-stop, he would not have been able to catch up with the Trifari Army who had been setting off for several days.
That tragedy was inevitable.
At least it's not something he can stop.
The gears of fate had turned ahead of schedule... The timeline had changed, and he could not have expected that Swain would launch an attack on Demacia early.
Maybe it's because of his own arrival?Because Swain felt the pressure of being attacked from both sides?
don't know...
Anyway, that's what Swain did.
Anyway...
"The city is full of sorrow..."
Chen Ce, dressed just like ordinary people, stood in an inconspicuous corner of the street, silently watching people's sorrow.
Barrett Bouvier is a nationally known clergyman and philanthropist who has helped countless people... He has a smart mind and a kind heart, and he is a model for this country.
He is also a good friend of the current King Jarvan III.
They have known each other since childhood.
His death not only caused grief among many Demacians, but also made the elderly Jarvan III feel like he was struck by lightning... How could the old king have thought that his friend died on the front line as a healer.
Died at the hands of a magician.
"It's really sad..." Chen Ce silently tightened the hood on his head and took out the map from the bag.
After several days of traveling, he had arrived in Demacia.
Renwall, a trading city north of the Gate of Sorrow, is fairly prosperous.
And Xiongdu is still in the northwest... about two to three days' journey... not too far.
Chen Ce put away the map and continued on his way silently.
He has already formulated a less detailed master plan——
Demacia's war with Noxus is over, but turmoil within Demacia remains high...especially after the death of Barret Bouvier.If you want to gain a foothold in this country, develop your power, and get more [Treasure Chests], you must start from Xiongdu.
Most of Demacia's [Heroes] are concentrated in the capital.
Although there have been some changes in the timeline, most of them are "advance" or "lag". The occurrence of all major events is theoretically unchanged as a whole, and my advantage lies in "predicting the future"...
You can use this to solve a lot of troubles for the [heroes], or "bring them trouble"... In short, you need to establish contact with them.
And the first step overall is...
"Let's let one let, let one let!"
Several knights dressed in luxurious costumes and imposing figures came on horseback from the other side of the street, and the crowds of people mourning in silence on the street gave way.
Their accents and dress did not look like locals from Renwall, and their unpleasant arrogance betrayed their identity as coming from the capital city.
A person can disguise and change everything, except temperament.
The "temperament" of these people is like the arrogance and disdain of city people who come to remote areas.
Chen Ce silently shrank into the alley, even preparing to use [Deception Magic] to further hide himself just in case.
The "knights from the city" walked straight to the center of the crowd, and the leader took out a parchment from the box.
Then he read aloud:
"According to the decree of His Majesty the King, the search for magicians will be intensified starting today! I hope that the people of Demacia will actively cooperate! Anyone who conceals and covers up will be guilty of the same crime as the magicians!"
"From today on, the Renwall Demon Searching Corps will be fully taken over by the Xiongdu Demon Searching Corps!"
"Officials at all levels must report to the Xiongdu Demon Searching Corps before performing any tasks related to searching for monsters!"
"Never let go of any cunning and evil magician!"
"Never tolerate!"
After what he said, the crowd fell silent, and people only showed surprised looks.
The few knights from the capital didn't care so much, and left straight away after reading the announcement - what awaited them now was not only the task of searching for demons, but also the warm hospitality of local officials and nobles.
Wine, gold, and women...that sort of thing.
Chen Ce watched all this silently.
Demacia is a classic country that bans magic. It has always been opposed to magicians since its founding - after all, this country was built on the magic stone.
To be more precise, this country was founded by a group of people who were afraid of magic.
The history of Demacia can be traced back to the Rune Wars... At that time, Runeland was in turmoil. A group of refugees who had been persecuted by runes and magic began to migrate to the New World, hoping to re-establish their own home.
They were all poor people whose families were destroyed and their wives and children were separated by magic. They hated magic, and they moved all the way to the north... so they came to what is now Demacia.
At that time, a man discovered a magical stone here, which could effectively suppress the magic power of the magician and make it impossible to use magic, so he cheered.
Under the protection of this magical stone, this group of refugees quickly established their own "paradise".
Magicians from outside could not use magic when they came here, and they had favorable terrain and good physical defense methods. Over time, they developed.
Arcadia gradually became a country.
【Demacia】
It was run by the most prestigious Guangdun family at the time.
That is the current royal family - the full name of the current king Jarvan III is Jarvan III Lightshield.
However, in the past hundred years, Demacian people's hatred and fear of magicians have gradually faded, and there are even phenomena where magicians live a normal life in some remote areas - everyone knows that he is a magician, but as long as he does not commit any crime, everyone will Nor will he be excluded for no reason.
Under this premise, the power and prestige of the Demon Searching Corps gradually shrank, and it became a "marginal department" during the tenure of Jarvan III.
But Chen Ce knew that the Demon Searching Corps would soon become popular again - some of the kingdom's senior officials and people with a keen sense of smell may have guessed it.
Jarvan III has not made it clear yet, but it is a certainty that he will strengthen the power of the Demon Searching Corps.
Renwall is the first city to trial it.
It won't take long for the Demon Search Corps to become the most powerful department in Demacia - even more powerful than the army.
and so……
The first step in Chen Ce's plan is to search for the demon corps.
Not to attack the Demon Searching Corps, but...
Join the Demon Searching Corps.
While the Demon Search Corps is still a fringe department and it is easy to join.
"Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle..." Chen Ce walked out of the alley and embarked on the journey to Xiongdu again.
"In order to protect Sona..."
