Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Lux didn't know how she got back to the room - along the corridor with carved railings and through the spring garden, she seemed to be a walking corpse without a soul.

When she regained consciousness, Lux was already lying on the bed.

The velvet sheets were extremely delicate, but at this moment, Lux felt like a light on her back.

The bedding of Long Qinyu was very warm, but at this moment, Lux felt cold to the bone.

Staring at the ceiling with blank eyes, her mind was completely blank.

"Why is this happening?" Lux murmured, "My aunt, why did she want to destroy Ino?"

"Because Ino is not a member of the nobility." Kalya replied, "In Mithril City, the promotion of disaster patrol knights has made her aware of your attitude problem, and she needs to make you sober."

"Ino is innocent."

"Of course she knows." Kalya pointed out another fact coldly, "otherwise how could she trust Ino to get along with you?"

"...Ino is also harmless." Lux became even colder. She wrapped herself in a thick quilt and shivered helplessly. "Ino won't talk nonsense."

"Only dead people don't talk nonsense." Kalya sighed, "Do you still remember your enlightenment when you were in Mithril City? You were willing to use the power of the nobles to improve the situation in Demacia as much as possible."

"I still remember it." Lux said dullly, "I always remember it."

"But haven't you ever thought about where the power of the nobles comes from?"

This time, Lux was silent.

"..."

Yes, where does the power of the nobility come from?

Is the injustice that I hate the main way to maintain this power?

Have those who use this power also become a member of this order?

Every time you use this power, are you maintaining this order?

If you alleviate the contradiction, will it make this cold order more solid and reliable?

Lux's thoughts began to wander. She had just found her ideal, but when she turned around, she discovered that there seemed to be no path at all under her feet.

Even his own advantages are meaningless in the face of cold reality.

Thinking of this, Lux trembled even more - she seemed to have returned to the morning when she discovered she was infected with the devil, her blue eyes full of helplessness.

"It's time to make your choice, my dear student." Kalya spoke again, "Whether you stay in the ranks of the nobles and slowly ease this contradiction, or take a brave step forward and completely change it. Nature?"

"Of course it's the latter - but, Kalya." Upon hearing this question, Lux carefully poked her head out of the quilt: "Can I really do it?"

"Of course." Kalya answered without hesitation, "A thinker I respect once said something, Lux, now I can give it to you."

"?"

"Hope does not mean something exists or nothing. It is just like the road on the earth. In fact, there is no road on the earth. When there are more people walking on it, it becomes a road."

"When there are more people walking, it becomes a road - thank you, Kalya!" Lux lifted the quilt and held the hilt of the sword, as if holding a warm torch, dispelling her previous Bone-breaking cold, "But...it's really a pity that my aunt and I are on different paths."

……………………

With Kalya's help, Lux finally regained her composure.

Her aunt's cruelty was a bit hard for Lux to accept, but fortunately there was still room for improvement.

At least, Tiana didn't know that Lux already had an "anti-thief mentality" - in this case, the power of Lux's nobles was somewhat limited, but at least it could still be used for now!

As long as you make good use of this power, maybe Lacus can rescue Ino!

Even in a more drastic way!

Then, just when Lux calmed down, took a shower, and planned her next move with Kalya, someone knocked on her bedroom door.

It's Ogesha.

After learning that Lux seemed to be in a bad mood, Ogesha took the initiative to come over to comfort her daughter.

In her opinion, Tiana's choice was a bit too drastic - Lux was just kind-hearted and would not use such harsh methods.

However, she did not oppose Tiana in the end, because at least on the issue of nobles and commoners, she and Tiana were on the same side.

Therefore, Ogesha did not talk about Ino, but just chatted with Lux.

Compared to the calm Tiana, Ogesha made Lux relax a lot.

Lux's condition seemed to be visibly improving.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Ogesha took the initiative to end the topic.

Then, when she stood up, she seemed to remember something and asked the servant to hand a dress to Lux - she would be asked to attend a wedding on behalf of the family in a few days.

"Do you still remember the Dili who left Mithril City with you?" Ogesha seemed unaware of the feud between Dili and Lux. "His son Gaokan is getting married recently—— The target is the daughter of the Laurent family, and you will be the representative of the Crown Guard family during the engagement ceremony."

"The daughter of the Laurent family...the legitimate daughter?" Lux was stunned for a moment, then replied in a rather unexpected tone, "Fiona Laurent? I heard that she is a person who is quite good at swordsmanship!"

"Yes, that's her!" Ogesha nodded, looking very happy, "I heard that Mr. Sebastian was very satisfied with Gaokan's performance before, so when Dili proposed marriage, he I agreed without hesitation!”

"That's the legitimate daughter of the Laurent family." Lux blinked, "I've heard of her name."

"Dili is also a member of the Crown Guard family. This will not insult them." Ogesha raised her face proudly, "Speaking of which, the Laurent family has also declined. When I was a child, the name of Sword Dance Waltz The trumpet is very resounding, but now, there is no one in the whole family who can take action..."

"..."

Lux's mood, which had just calmed down, now became worse again.

Lux had also met Miss Fiona several times.

Although she is an out-and-out alien among the nobles of Demacia, in Lux's eyes, she is very respectable - Fiona has amazing swordsmanship, and she has always dared to fight and take responsibility. , being polite to others, although this made her popularity and reputation in the aristocratic circle not very good, but Lux appreciated it very much.

Sometimes Lux even thinks that if she had not become a mage and had not met Kalya, then becoming Fiona would be the best result, right?

But now, I suddenly learned that Fiona was going to marry that Gao Kan...

When she thought of Dili, Lux felt as if she had swallowed a fly—no, it was as if she had eaten a mouthful of flies. She felt extremely sick.

At this moment, she suddenly recalled a question she had asked Kalya.

"Are the choices in life always so difficult? Or do they only come with innocent wishes as a child?"

……………………

"I want to rescue Ino, and I don't want to let Gao Kan climb a high branch!" After Ogesha left the room, Lux clenched her sword, "You are right, the power of the nobles can be used , but it cannot be relied upon!"

"Have you made up your mind?" Kalya confirmed for the last time, "This will be an extremely difficult road."

"This is the path I am willing to choose." Lux said firmly, "At least I already have you and Sona by my side, right?"

"That's very well said, Comrade Lux." Kalya looked excited for a rare moment, "Now, I have a big plan that can solve all problems!"

"Big plan?" Lux, who was originally resolute, couldn't help but be stunned when she heard what Kalya said. "Wait, you have already planned it? When did you plan it?"

"Just now, I learned that Gaokan was going to marry Fiona." Kalya smiled and seemed to be in a good mood. "Originally, there was still a little problem with my plan. No one could light the key fuse. Now With this wedding, everything is settled!”

"Wait a minute! Trigger?" Lux interrupted Kalya quickly, "What are you going to do? I just don't agree with my aunt's idea. I don't want to destroy the entire family!"

"The fuse is just a metaphor, a metaphor for a... well, a big and spectacular event. Don't worry, it's not a bad thing!" Kalya reassured, "As long as the plan goes well, even your aunt will be proud of your performance. Take the initiative to help cover up Ino's affairs and let her follow you!"

"How is this possible? It's not like you don't know her attitude!" Lux said in disbelief, "She needs to consider her family, and she hopes that I can be the same as her. How could she do this?"

"This is the ancient wisdom from Shurima! Even if you run away from home and leave Demacia, they will help you escape." Kalya is extremely confident, "As long as you report that you are safe on time, even Ogesha will not Too worried—"

"Can I still run away from home? Leave Demacia?" Lux said in disbelief, "They can't possibly allow me to leave Demacia!"

"It won't be allowed now." Kalya chuckled, "But who can say for sure what will happen in the future - by the way, the annoying Dili will also be unlucky because of this..."

"...Really? You didn't lie to me?" Lux blinked, "For more details...tell me?"
