"Why is Xiongdu so busy recently? I heard that many children from noble families run to the duel field every day. Matt, have any nobles launched a glory challenge in the past few days?"

On Throne Mountain, Jarvan III put down a document from Ore Town and looked up at his butler.

Met, who stood upright next to him and put a handkerchief on his arm, immediately replied: "No noble has launched a glory challenge recently. The reason why the capital is so lively is that people are discussing one thing, about Laurent. Fiona of the family, and the knight Rowan sponsored by the Bouvier family. "

Before Jarvan III could ask further questions, Mate continued: "This is the most lively thing in Xiongdu recently. People are curious whether Miss Sword Queen will win all the way, or whether the Black Lion Rowan will break Miss Sword Queen's undefeated record. Become the new master of Demacia's dueling arena."

"Rowan?" Jarvan III's eyes revealed a hint of curiosity, and he said, "According to Halgold and Lestara's letters, the Rowan I know is not a man who pursues glory. , maybe even a relatively lazy person, why would he go to the duel field? And with his strength, there is no point in going to the duel field, right?"

"." Matt was silent.

After a while, he bent down and said: "It may be related to an incident nine days ago."

"explain."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Nine days ago, Sona, the adopted daughter of the Bouvier family, went to the duel field accompanied by Rowan. After the second duel at noon, a mage appeared in the audience, causing turmoil at the scene. The demon seekers quickly arrived at the scene. And captured the mage who caused the turmoil."

"I know about this, but what does this have to do with Rowan?" Jiawen III frowned.

Regarding this matter, Jarvan III was still a little unable to sleep that night, because when he saw the documents presented by the soldiers, he also fell silent after reading them.

Nine years old, no casualties were caused, but he was handcuffed and shackled and sent to prison for investigation.

Jarvan III's first thought after reading it was that even if this child successfully drank the forbidden magic water and abolished the magic and came out, would he still be as passionate about Demacia as before?

"He had a conflict with the demon hunter." Met said. "When the demon hunter arrested the mage, Rowan stepped forward to stop him. In fact, it was not an obstacle. He just asked the demon hunter captain not to handcuff the mage. , but the request was rejected, and then he withdrew."

"." Jarvan III tapped the table with his fingers, with a calm expression on his face. After a while, he said, "Mate, which faction do you think Rowan prefers?"

"." Matt lowered his head.

"I asked you to say it, just say it, what are you worried about?" Seeing Mate lower his head and say nothing, Jarvan III laughed angrily. He knew that Mette was full of affection for the boy. For no other reason, Mette was also a commoner who gradually climbed up to the Given his current status, he has an innate fondness for civilians, especially polite and capable boys.

"I'm not going to use Demacia's future as a pawn. I'm not that stupid." Jarvan III said to Mate.

"I think Rowan is biased towards mages. It's not hard to hear what he said that day. Your Majesty, he is the same as you. He also thinks that there are problems with Demacia's current system." Mete replied.

"Yes. There is something wrong with Demacia's current system." Jarvan III's eyes became melancholy. After standing up, he suddenly said: "Barrett came to me before, hoping that I could give him a peerless sword. I didn't refuse, but I didn't agree either. I was going to drag that guy with me. Who told him not to come to me for a drink when he returned to Xiongdu? I only have a few friends, but he is still avoiding me." Jiawen III revealed. Smiling, he continued: "Meite, arrange for someone to go to the palace to hide it secretly and take out the dragon stone sword."

"Your Majesty?" Matt raised his head.

The Dragonstone Sword was Demacia's marshal's weapon three hundred years ago. Tiana of the Crownguard family has been coveting that sword for a long time. To say how precious the sword is, it's not like that.

Because with the rise of national power, Demacia has become stronger and stronger, and the craftsmanship and forging technology of craftsmen have also been improved. Therefore, the weapons now made are more useful than the previous weapons.

Therefore, the weapons Tiana now possesses are among the best in all of Demacia, but the Dragonstone Sword is different. It was the weapon of Marshal Green, who once dazzled the battlefield in Demacia and was unparalleled in fame. The sword is a symbol of status and inheritance.

Like the Hammer of Auron, that weapon was given new meaning.

And now, Jarvan III

Met responded: "Your Majesty, he is still young, and with his merits."

"You are thinking too much. I gave that weapon to Barrett because of him. Tiana is loyal to me, but the Crown Guard is not necessarily so, especially today's demon seekers. It's getting more and more advanced. This is my reminder to them that this country is not a world of demon seekers, and mages are also my people." Jarvan III looked at Mate coldly and said.

Met also realized that he had overstepped his rank. He was the spokesperson of the king's order. He could not have his own thoughts. So, Met lowered his head and said, "Meite, I apologize to you."

"No, wait a little longer. When he wins Fiona, give the weapon to Madam Bouvier, and Madam Bouvier will hand it over to him." Jarvan III touched his chin, and the complaining old man smiled evilly, as if I thought of something interesting.

Met nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Hey, ma'am, are you going the wrong way? This is not the place for you to come."

In the passage leading to the dank dungeon, Lux saw two soldiers holding oil lamps.

Frowning, Lux raised her neck, "I am Laxana Crownguard, do you want to stop me?"

"Laxana Crownguard?!!"

"Sorry, sorry, sir, please wait, we will have the captain over right away."

The two soldiers had panicked expressions on their faces, and then one of them apologized to Lux, while the other ran out.

After a while, a little old man with a beard appeared in front of Lux. He wiped the sweat from his temples and asked respectfully: "What do you want to do here?"

"I need to investigate something." Lux took out the Crownguard family's emblem and said to him.

"this"

"What is this? Are you asking my aunt Tiana Crownguard to question you?" Lux said immediately.

When they came to the capital, the first thing Galen taught Lux was how to use the reputation of the Crown Guard family.

Lux has learned very well and is very proficient in it.

She was not targeting these soldiers, because as a child of the Crown Guard family, she had the right to enter the dungeon, even the most vicious dungeon, because her aunt was the Grand Marshal of the Empire and her uncle was a member of the Demon Searchers. Long, she can go to some forbidden places in Demacia without the king's permission, and the dungeon is one of them.

What's more, she is now also a member of the Order of the Illuminator, and by the act of blessing, she also has the right to enter the dungeon.

This is the right of Demacia, the strongest family, the Crown Guard family.

"No, no, no, I want to say that this place is not a suitable place for a beautiful noble lady like you to visit." The captain guarding the dungeon was sweating, but he did not dare to stop him. , but stepped aside and said: "This place will disgust you."

"I don't care," Lux said, walking past him.

She promised Rowan that she would help Rowan check on the child.

And not just to help Rowan, Lux herself also wanted to see how the civilian mage would be treated after being caught.

Moments later, with the help of the dungeon captain, Lux met the boy Rowan was talking about.

Seeing him, Lux breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the environment was damp and dirty, at least there was a small bed and a quilt in the prison. But Lacus could see that the quilt was moldy and had spots on it, which made Lacus wrinkled. He frowned.

"You guys please step back, I want to be alone." Lux said to the captain behind her.

The dungeon captain nodded, wiped his sweat, and said, "If you need anything, just ask."

After saying that, he left, leaving Lux alone in the dungeon.

Lux looked at this dungeon that belonged exclusively to "heresy", and then she stepped forward.

"Hey, little guy, are you okay?" Lux stretched out her hands, grabbed the iron bars, bent down and said inside.

Then, Lux saw the little boy moving, just moving, and he didn't answer Lux.

"I'm Lux. Do you remember that when you were arrested, there was a man who spoke for you? I'm his friend. He wanted to apologize to you, but he couldn't help you." Lux said again.

"Help me?" the little boy spoke. He turned around, revealing a pair of numb eyes, and said, "I am guilty, I don't need help."

"Are you guilty? Who told you?"

"That's what adults say, and so does my father." He replied, and after saying that, he turned around and no longer looked at Lux.

"." Lux looked at him with complicated eyes.

"It's useless, he has been brainwashed." At this moment, a voice sounded from the prison next to Lux.

Lux tilted her head and walked over. She saw a man sitting in the corner with his hands shackled and tied in place. His body was covered in dirty tendons.

"Who are you?" Lux asked curiously.

He raised his head, revealing a handsome face that looked quite young. His oily hair fell in clumps down his face, but it could not hide his lustrous eyes.

"Silas."

He continued, "Nice to meet you."
