"Then next time you have something to be happy about, can I hug you too?"

"Eh……?"

Lux raised her head and looked into the other party's eyes, which looked honest but playful at the same time.

"Of course...you can also hug me warmly..."

"Yeah, I learned another new knowledge." Chen Ce smiled, "I will write it down in my notebook. Thank you, dear Miss Lux."

"Haha... You're welcome..." Lux showed an awkward yet polite smile, then stood up to leave.

"Well...I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do...I won't wait with you...see you later...!"

"Okay, see you later." Chen Ce waved goodbye.

Jonathan, the captain of the demon searcher team, finally came back half an hour after going out.

He did not express any dissatisfaction with Lux for leaving without saying goodbye, and was still polite to Chen Ce who stayed behind.

After the latter changed into the uniform of the Demon Searching Corps, he even took the initiative to enthusiastically introduce the Demon Searching Corps' military camp.

"This is our usual training ground. We can train various special skills such as riding, swordsmanship, and search. You can come here to train at any time - except when you are out on missions or have other orders."

"This is the rest area. I spend my lunch break here every day... Of course, if you want to go home at noon, just tell me. It's okay if you don't want to come in the afternoon."

"And here, the Demon Search Hall, we are here when we hold meetings or announce various orders."

"Look over there..."

Captain Jonathan was very enthusiastic and even flattering - he already regarded the young man in front of him as an "internal member" of the Crown Guard family, and he did not dare to offend him at all.

Chen Ce also sees through things without telling them - which is good, as it can save a lot of trouble.

The two walked back and forth in the military camp several times.

After getting familiar with the military camp, Jonathan lowered his voice and said: "The treatment in our regiment is not very good now. If there is anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, please bear with me..."

"You're too polite. I came here to become a qualified demon hunter, not to enjoy the blessings." Chen Ce replied politely, while feeling secretly in his heart.

What Jonathan still doesn't know now is that he will gain great power in the near future... When Jarvan III issues the "Mobile Forbidden Order Plus", all the demon seekers will be ascended at once.

By then, his squad leader may have more power than the generals guarding the city in some remote towns.

After all, he can investigate whoever he wants, and if you don't accept it, he will label you a "fornicating magician".

By that time, the Demon Seeker's immediate boss, the Commander of the Demon Search Corps, had an over-expanded power that was even greater than that of Jarvan IV, the prince of Demacia.

Quite outrageous.

It's easy to get into the Demon Searching Corps now, but after a while, even Galen's name may not be that useful here.

How humble and unpopular the demon seekers are now, they will be noble and popular in the near future.

Of course, that kind of miraculous status will not last long after all...

"That's almost all the introduction." Jonathan looked at the demon hunters who were training.

But just when he was about to say goodbye to Chen Ce, a demon searcher suddenly ran over in a hurry.

"Captain...Captain Jonathan...!"

"Don't worry, tell me slowly if you have anything to do." Jonathan patted the visitor on the shoulder.

The latter gasped, first glanced at Chen Ce cautiously, and after receiving Jonathan's eyes, he said confidently and boldly: "Cable reports said that traces of the magician were found..."

"Huh? Where?" Jonathan suddenly became energetic, "How did you find it?"

"In the north of the city..." the demon hunter said, "Informant reports say that the sound of a woman playing the piano is suspected to contain magical power..."

"The sound of the piano? Magic power?"

"Yes...it is said that the sound of the piano will give people a unique feeling...like magic..."

"Is this the only evidence?"

"right……"

"Then we are far from arresting people. We can only go and take a look first." Jonathan knew very well that his power was limited. "We can't even go there wearing uniforms - we can't alert others."

"Yes..." The demon searcher gasped, as if he had just run back from there.

"By the way, what's the suspect's name?" Jonathan asked again.

"The name is...Sona, Sona Bouvier."

"Bouvier...?"

"Well...she is the adopted daughter of Barrett Bouvier..."

"..."

Jonathan was silent.

Then he turned to look at Chen Ce beside him.

Maybe...the only way to deal with magic is with magic.

"Our outstanding newcomer Chen Ce, would you like to come with me to listen to the wonderful piano and harp music?"

Barrett Bouvier is a hero.

Also a martyr.

News of his death has spread throughout the capital, and the king is preparing to hold a memorial service for him - they have been friends for many years.

The saddest thing was that there were three people besides the king.

Barrett Bouvier's wife and two daughters.

In that small manor, which was extremely unworthy of the owner's status, Lestara Bouvier received many relatives and friends who came to express their condolences.She always had a smile on her face, completely hiding the deep fatigue and numbness in her eyes.

People gathered in the open space of the manor and recounted Barrett's past deeds over and over again in a sad tone.He was so humorous, kind and brave during his lifetime, and he could always be the focus of the crowd.

Even now.Even if he is dead.

Barrett's biological daughter, Karina Bouvier, was sitting in the corner of the manor in pain, crying silently.She could understand the smile on her mother's face, and she knew that strength was more uncomfortable than the pain in her heart - ten thousand times.

Sona held her piano and played on the stage, her white jade fingers flexibly sweeping over each string, and the melodious melody carried a moving sadness.In the sound of the piano, many people recalled every moment with Barrett.

People cried over it.

But Lestara knew something... She looked at Sona, and there was even a hint of begging in her beautiful brown eyes.

She wanted her daughter to stop.

She has lost her husband and she can no longer...

But Sona didn't stop.

Born aphasic, she was unable to convey her emotions to the world with her voice, so the sound of the piano became the only channel.

She played to her heart's content, and the sound contained her heavy heart and endless thoughts.

Also includes...

Something that interests the magic seeker.

Several people also wearing formal clothes entered the manor.They sat silently in the corner of the manor.

They expressed their condolences to the hero Barrett Bouvier and interacted with others... They certainly didn't infiltrate the scene.Their tributes to Barrett were sincere and heartfelt, but their purpose was undeniable.

They silently stared at the girl on the stage, and the unique-looking piano made them suspicious.

Lestara noticed these "uninvited guests".She knew why they came.

But she can't act rashly.

"How do you feel?"

In the audience, team leader Jonathan asked the young man beside him in a low voice.

"It... just... sounds pretty good?" Chen Ce pretended not to understand and scratched his head.

"It sounds very good. It can be described as 'immortal music'." Jonathan didn't point it out and nodded with a smile. "So what was it like for you to go on a mission for the first time?"

"Hmm...a little nervous?"

"It's normal, but there's no need to be too nervous."

"Ok."

"Go on and watch." Jonathan stopped talking and focused on the beautiful sound of the piano again.

Of course, he didn't expect Chen Ce to hear the reason - he was just a newcomer, and his perception of magic was still very immature. I'm afraid even if the magician's magic hit his face, he wouldn't know what it was.

He asked Chen Ce to come just to avoid causing trouble for him - or to find a "protective umbrella" for himself.

As soon as Barrett Bouvier died, he came to doubt the family members of the martyr... This kind of behavior would cause him huge trouble if he was not careful - to be honest, he didn't want to do this.

But there is really no way.

The tip has already spread the news, at least I have to come over for a formality...

Now we can only rely on the relationship of this newcomer... If something goes wrong, we can still get the Crown Guard family to put in a good word...

Jonathan had already planned to stop the team and leave just casually.

But at this moment, a demon searcher frowned. "Captain... I can feel it, this is indeed the breath of magic... There is magic in her piano sound..."

"Are you sure?" Jonathan adjusted his sitting posture slightly.

"I'm sure..." The demon searcher nodded, "It's true...my family was killed by the black magician, and I hate that evil aura..."

"Oh, then get ready for action." Jonathan took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and said to Chen Ce: "Newcomer, your first mission is here."

"Huh?" Chen Ce was confused.

"When Miss Sona finishes playing this song, you can go behind the scenes and ask about the situation."

"Oh……"

"If we are sure there is a problem, ask her to come with us."

"Ok."

Chen Ce nodded in agreement.

Jonathan smoked his cigarette, but the demon searcher beside him was a little dissatisfied - it was too unsafe to hand such an important task to a newcomer.

But he couldn't question his captain.

Several people just waited quietly for the song to end.

After the song ended, Sona bowed and left. The people in the audience seemed to make no special movements. Lestara secretly breathed a sigh of relief - but she did not notice that Chen Ce had slipped into the backstage.

After avoiding everyone's sight, Chen Ce directly used [Deception Magic] to become invisible and follow Sona.

This girl, who may be more than 36D, sat down in the lounge behind the scenes, and the magical piano was placed next to her.

She stared at Qin blankly, and her eyes suddenly started to turn red.

Then, two lines of tears were shed.

Silent cry.

Until a voice sounded from behind: "Ahem..."

"...!" Sona instantly became alert, turned around and hugged Qin tightly.

She looked at the young man in front of her and vaguely guessed something.

"Don't be nervous, Sona." Chen Ce said softly, and deliberately did not add the suffix "Miss", like an old friend.

The girl took half a step back nervously.She wanted to shout, but how could she do it when she was speechless?

[Who are you...] She gestured in sign language.

"My name is Chen Ce." To be honest, Chen Ce can't understand the other person's sign language very well, but in this case, he can guess the general meaning. "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to catch you."

【Then what do you want to do...】

"I'm here to help you."

【Eh……? 】
