Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 37 【0036】 Homeward Interlude

Just as Ogesha expected, Lux, Galen and Tiana spent the New Year together in Mithril City.

However, unlike Lux, who is very leisurely, Galen and Tiana usually stay in the military camp, and will only return to Mithril City when the New Year comes - in the winter, martial law is in place in the north. , because at this time the Freljord people in the north often go south to plunder due to hunger.

Although the towering Dragonspine Mountains are extremely difficult to climb, and half of a team going south to plunder may die in the process of climbing over the mountains, the Freljordians will still continue on without food.

Moreover, on the western sea, some tribes will take advantage of the freezing sea level to bypass the mountains and enter Demacia's territory.

Therefore, in order to guard against these barbarians heading south, Demacia's army often assembles and guards in the north during the winter. Although Galen and Tiana are members of the Crownguard family, they are also very hard at this time.

Under this situation, Lux, who was free, simply started planning a more detailed investigation around Mithril City under Kalya's "instigation".

Although this kind of running around is somewhat dangerous, considering Lux's amazing sword attack when facing Cordola, and the fact that the nobles of Mithril City are now trembling with fear, even a banquet Not daring to drive, Lux was too bored, and in the end they had no choice but to let Lux wander around.

Lux, who once again dressed herself as an Orion girl, tried to repeat her previous trajectory, but what she and Kalya never dreamed of was that in just a few days, her previous great achievements had already passed through countless mouths. It completely spread throughout Mithril City.

Demacians are very fond of heroism, and Lux's performance when facing many nobles before was even more amazing - most importantly, for the common people, the little princess of the Crown Guard family opened up precious He also used his rich agricultural knowledge to conduct interviews in person.

In addition, it is the off-season period, and the common people who do not have many entertainment activities have spontaneously adapted Lux's story into countless versions.

Even in the taverns in the inner city, bards began to compose music.

Good guy, Lux is a good guy on the spot!

In this case, even if her disguise is perfect, Lux will still receive more attention than usual when she appears as a foreign girl.

In other words, almost every foreign girl who is accompanied by a mature man will be noticed and saluted while walking in the fields of Mithril City.

Lux thought it was nothing at first.

Just say that you are not it, anyway, the curious civilians... have never seen you.

However, even if she denies her identity, when these civilians talk to her, the topic will not move away from "Miss Laxana".

And because the stories were widely disseminated and transformed, Lux had to put on a curious face and listen to stories from them that had been pierced countless times and completely changed beyond recognition.

I pretended to be someone I was not and heard from others stories that were not mine – my story!

The key is that after they shared one outrageous story after another, they would also use their own lack of words to praise Lax, saying that this kid is very good, Laxana can get along, etc., with the unique enthusiasm of the northern dialect. Lux couldn't help but be dumbstruck by her humor and humor.

Under this situation, if you still want to maintain the disguise... this will undoubtedly be a severe test for Lux's acting skills. She even feels that listening to this thing is more difficult than facing the nobles directly at the noble banquet without Kalya's help.

In the end, Lux reluctantly gave up the idea of ​​continuing the investigation.

Forget it, let's go somewhere else next time - if you're tired, go home quickly.

Anyway, she is already twelve years old and has proven that she can stand alone. She will eventually have a chance to leave Xiongdu.

……………………

After the New Year, the ice and snow in Mithril City have not yet melted, and Lux ​​is about to embark on the road back to the capital of Demacia.

However, before going back, Lux had one last question.

Bring some souvenirs back.

Even though Lux believed that her main gain was seeing the contradictions hidden under the calmness, from the perspective of her status as a noble, the most important thing about her trip should be that she took on her own role for the first time and successfully fulfilled her family's expectations.

In this case, her souvenir also has a certain "trophy" attribute.

Careful selection is required.

However, Lux is actually not very good at this.

Choosing gifts was also a rare knowledge blind spot for Kalya - after discovering that the all-powerful Kalya needed some version updates, Lux had no choice but to turn to the guards around her for help.

Fortunately, after getting along with each other for this period of time (plus many private visits in private), the guards were not very restrained when facing Lacus. Although they looked at each other in confusion when faced with their own lady's request for help, but after Lacus Under the urging of others, they finally came up with a bunch of strange suggestions.

From handicrafts to specialty foods, to hand-painted landscapes to new music by the bard, Lux was dumbfounded by the suggestions from these guards.

Crafts are somewhat cheap.

You can’t take special delicacies back with you either.

The bard's song is all about himself, it's so shameful.

After thinking about it, the scenery of Mithril City seems really good.

Anyway, with Kalya's help, it doesn't take much effort to make a printer yourself.

Thumbs up for the guard who made this suggestion, Lux traveled throughout Mithril City with her sketchbook, and quickly prepared a lot of sketches - all of them were famous scenery of Mithril City, all drawn by her own hands Yes, it’s perfect to give as a gift.

In addition, as for Ogesha, she said before Lux set off to Mithril City that she would bring a northern bagpipe back.

Mom's gift is ready!

So, all that's left now is Sona's gift!

Lux thought about giving a northern bagpipe as a gift, but when she thought that Sona was now in the Illuminati choir, where there were all kinds of musical instruments and there were specialized musical instrument makers, she could only give up this idea.

What to give?

Regarding this issue, one of the guards put forward his own suggestions.

"How about choosing a northern war horse!"

Northern warhorse?

This suggestion surprised Lacus.

"How did you come up with the idea?"

"I've seen Mr. Dili's white horse - it's so majestic and rarely seen in the imperial capital." The guard was honest, "So I thought the war horses in the north were quite famous..."

"Mr. Dili's horse cost a lot of money." Lux shook her head when she heard this, "War horses in the north are famous, but those of that level are rare!"

"But I remember that I also saw one when I was in Velos." The guard recalled, "It was also a very similar white horse. It was ridden by a painter... Speaking of which, at that time, he It seems that he once lived next door to our hotel. He was a very handsome young man who could also play the harp..."

? ? ?

Live next door?

Talk about harp?

Painting?

The three conditions came together, which reminded Lux ​​and Kalya almost simultaneously of those pesky flies in Demacia's capital that were eventually driven away by Kashina.

Lux looked calm on the surface, seemingly casually asking about the young man's appearance.

As a result, according to the description of the guard, except for the age difference, he was exactly the same as Dili.

Realizing that there might be a problem, Lux began to inquire about Dili's family information.

Then, she learned about the existence of Gao Kan - this could be regarded as a "promising young man" in Mithril City, but from beginning to end, Lux had never seen him in Mithril City.

Lux had doubts about Dili before, but now that Bai Ma's doubts have emerged, she can't help but want to find out the situation!

Could it be that Di Li first found out that he was not recuperating in a hotel and then chose to defect?

But unfortunately, at this moment, Dili has been assigned a new job by Tiana, and their family has also left Mithril City - the clues have been interrupted.

Lux, who found nothing, reluctantly got on the carriage home.

As for giving Sona a gift...

With Kalya's help, Lux finally chose to cook herself and learned how to make a traditional Ionian pastry.

Although the flavor may be different due to the raw materials, but... I hope Sona likes it!

In this way, after taking care of everything, Lux and Cullen embarked on the road back to the capital of Demacia.
