"Huh?" Jarvan IV was a little surprised, "Eldred already knows what happened between us?"

"I don't think so."

"That is……?"

"I offended Tiana before."

"Tiana..." Jarvan IV suddenly felt a headache when he heard this name.

Tiana Crownguard, now the Grand Marshal of Demacia, is also the leader of the Crownguard family... The king thinks highly of her...

"That guy may be a bit difficult to deal with...but I will try my best to help you deal with her." Even Jarvan IV did not dare to speak too highly of that woman.

It's just... maybe he's a little too worried.

Because Chen Ce didn’t want him to help with anything——

"What I mean is... Your Highness Jiawen, if something happens next, please pretend you didn't see it."

Chen Ce showed a kind smile.

Jarvan IV was stunned.

Looking at the gentle expression of the "Demon Searcher" in front of him, he suddenly felt a chill...

Chen Ce didn't waste any more nonsense and went on to prepare for the next topic - about the fallen angel, the masked man Morgana.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the training ground.

Chen Ce, who had keen senses, immediately pointed in the direction of the entrance to the training ground, and then jumped to hang on the top of the ring above the training ground.

Jarvan IV was still a little unresponsive, but an old man with a majestic temperament had already walked into the training ground surrounded by guards.

There is only one person in the entire country who can directly enter the prince's private training ground without reporting.

The prince's father, the king of Demacia.

Jarvan III.

"Father." Jarvan IV quickly got up from the ground and saluted.

"How is your training?" The majestic old king held an emerald scepter in his hand. The clothes on his body were not too luxurious but had enough aura.His hair has long been gray, and his wrinkled face seems to hide the traces of many years.

This was the first time that Chen Ce met this old king with a good reputation.

And...a personal guard beside him.

Jarvan IV's spearmanship instructor and a "death prisoner" rescued from the Noxian gladiatorial arena...German Steward Xin Zhao.

He held a long spear in his hand, and his eyes were terrifyingly sharp.

He seems to be alert to everything around him all the time, and his alertness and insight are extremely strong...

Chen Ce, who thought he could just hide for a while, decisively used the deception magic again.

"As usual." Jarvan IV answered his father's question.

"That's good." The old king nodded with satisfaction and looked at Xin Zhao aside. "When you are free, you can try Jiawen's strength... I hope he is not lazy."

"His Royal Highness is an honest man and trains hard. I think he will definitely improve." Xin Zhao's attitude towards Jiawen and his son was very respectful, but it was not "awe" - but "respect".They had a feeling of life-saving and re-creation for him.

"That would be great." Jarvan III's tone was very relaxed, but there was never a smile on his face - he had not smiled since the death of his good friend Barrett Bouvier.

"Jiawen, I came to you for one thing...an important event in your life."

"A major event in life...? Father, please tell me." Jarvan IV was confused.

The old king did not hesitate and said bluntly:

"From today on, you have a fiancée."

[The Generalissimo has mentioned this matter to His Majesty the King. 】

Looking at the brief letter in his hand, Eldred, the leader of the Demon Searching Corps, showed a satisfied smile.

He then threw the letter into the prison's burning fireplace.

The scorching flames licked the fragile paper, and within a moment the "secret" was permanently sealed in a pile of ashes.

Eldred touched the cloth bag on his waist and strode into the depths of the prison.

This prison used to imprison "black magicians" is located in the southwest corner of Xiongdu. It is a deep dungeon with more than three digits of jailers inside. It can be regarded as the most tightly guarded prison in Demacia.

After all, black magicians are the most terrifying and despicable existences in this country.

If you are not careful, it can cause disaster.

Even...even Eldred himself knows that in fact, most of the "black magicians" here have not done any evil things that are harmful to nature.

Especially those prisoners who were recently arrested - they make up the vast majority of this prison.

Many of them are not even from Xiongdu itself, but are "dangerous elements" escorted from other towns.

Well...it doesn't matter if they committed a crime or not, what matters is that they have magic in them.

This is original sin.

The more unique the existence, the less allowed it is.Having feared power is doomed to be ostracized and attacked by feared people.

Some sins are inherent in us from birth.

Just like those royal families who were born at the pinnacle of power...

"It's not fair, is it?"

Eldred stopped deep in the dungeon.In front of him, a ragged and disheveled "black magician" was weakly prostrate on the ground - only separated by a pathetic cage.

"Answer me...that's not fair, is it?"

"..." The man in the prison did not reply, but silently opened his dull eyes.

"It's not fair, really." Eldred answered the question for him, with a hint of cynicism in his tone. "You have done nothing wrong... Just because you are born different, does this mean that you should be executed?"

"I don't think so. There's just something different about you... You're not bad per se, right?"

"There are too many poor people here... They have done nothing, and they are branded as 'evil' just because someone finds something strange. This is wrong... This is unfair."

"I want to change this situation..."

Eldred's words were very touching, and even made him cry for the poor, innocent magicians.

It's just that... no matter how superb his acting skills are, he can't deceive those who know him well.

The criminal in prison spat out a mouthful of blood in disgust, "Your poor performance is really disgusting..."

Hearing this, Eldred paused.

Then, there was a burst of heartfelt ridicule - the funny stage show ended here.

"Well, let me be honest, this unfairness is fair - you committed a crime. Yes, you killed someone... There are only a few criminals in this prison who have killed people. They haven't executed them yet. You, this is already a great gift.”

"Stop talking nonsense..." The criminal raised his head, as if he was too lazy to argue - he tried, but it was no use.No one wanted to listen to him.

Or...in fact, the truth is not important, people just want to see his head rolling down from the execution platform.

"If you want to kill me, just kill me... Why bother to humiliate me again and again... This has no meaning anymore..."

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me... How could I come to humiliate you?" Eldred smiled, and then took off the bag from his waist.

Inside was a small but thick booklet, and a magic-forbidden stone that had been used many times.

"I'm here to help you - you know, I don't see this injustice, I fight for you."

"Help me...hehe..." the criminal sneered.

Until Eldred actually stuffed those two things into the cell.

The guard on the side walked out consciously, as if to show that he knew nothing.

The criminal was still suspicious, but Eldred was already about to turn around and leave.

He pinched his nose and fanned the air in front of him in disgust - the smell of excrement mixed with moldy bread was really disgusting. Perhaps only death row inmates who were used to staying here could bear it.

"This is the last bit about the Forbidden Demon Stone... After reading it, you will understand what this stone is."

"..." Finally there was a light in the prisoner's eyes.

And Eldred was already ready to leave.

Only the last sentence remains:

"Don't let me down, Silas..."

Chapter 92 Flip the chessboard! Don’t even play!

Chen Ce originally wanted to discuss Morgana with Jarvan IV, but now it seems... it has to be postponed.

The words of the old king shocked Jarvan IV, and at the same time he felt resisted - although he knew that many times he was in the royal family and could not help himself, and he did not dare to disobey his father's orders, but at this juncture...?Not to mention that he actually hopes to be able to control his marriage by himself.

He had to try his best... Even if he couldn't cancel the marriage, he should at least postpone it for a while - at least not now.When he wants to serve his country.

He followed the old king out of the training ground, wanting to talk in detail.

Chen Ce waited for everyone to finish walking and jumped down from the top of the training ground.

Then there was a very clear goal.

Morgana’s matter can be put aside for now.

Since someone has been restless... then take the initiative to talk to her.

Everything that should be said has been said before, but she insists on ignoring herself again and again... Originally, Forsbarrow didn't even think about going to her to settle the score immediately, but if she insists on doing it continuously... A little action...

Okay, let’s settle the two accounts together.

Tiana Crownguard...

Chen Ce's steps were very steady, and there was no expression on his face. He looked like an ordinary, calm pedestrian.

Until he walked directly into the Grand Marshal's private residence from the main entrance.

The guards at the door came to stop him, but he only waved his hand and defeated the elites selected from the fearless vanguard group.

Even the alarm didn't have time to sound.

People were coming and going on the street, but no one noticed the "villain" who broke into the Generalissimo's mansion without any concealment.

The latter really didn't hide anything deliberately.

It's just that he moved too fast.

So much so that passers-by who happened to catch a glimpse of him thought he was being let in openly.

Chen Ce still didn't draw his sword, and just used the scabbard to "speed through" the heavily guarded manor of the Grand Marshal of Demacia.

By questioning the guards, he easily obtained the location of Tiana's study.

Boom!

Pushing it out with a palm, the thick solid wooden door instantly turned into a pile of debris.

And the old woman who repeatedly "disobeyed the advice" also came into view - she was in the room.In front of the desk.

But she didn't sit down.

She stood quietly in front of the desk, with a set of light silver armor neatly placed on the ground at her feet - exactly the one she usually wore.Her sword was also taken off and placed on the ground, and she was only wearing a tight-fitting corset under her armor.

It looked like she had just taken off all her equipment.

Even the shoes and socks were neatly placed on the floor.

She seemed unfazed—not even surprised—by the overwhelming power she faced.There was no expression on her face, she was as calm as if she was about to fall asleep.

Seeing this, Chen Ce couldn't help laughing.

"Mysterious? What you're doing is a bit interesting."

He walked straight forward and didn't stop until he was less than one meter away from that damn old woman - at this distance, he could seal her throat directly with his sword.

"No, I didn't mean that." Tiana Crownguard shook her head, but there was still no expression on her charming face. "I just wanted to apologize - taking the gear off means being sincere."

"Is it too late to apologize now?" Chen Ce's thumb rested on the hilt of the sword, and a blade emerged from the scabbard.
