Serious person, who is learning magic in Marvel?

"She's awake, General."
Thain nodded slightly, then walked into the camp. His huge body deliberately walked lightly, so as not to wake up the sleeping soldiers in the middle of the night. They still have a tough battle to fight tomorrow morning, so why not rest?
.
The camp tent was opened, deliberately enlarging the size just enough to accommodate Thain. His huge body blocked most of the firelight, and the girl was lying on a bed with freshly changed sheets, surrounded by blood-stained bandages and pills.
.She looked pale, but still insisted on not falling into a deep sleep.
The army doctor said softly next to Thain: "She insists on seeing you."
Without words, Thane stepped forward. The girl couldn't see his arrival, and could only feel that something huge had entered the camp based on her perception - just like she had thrown a fireball based on her perception before.
"Did you save me?" Her voice sounded very hoarse.
"It's me." Thain replied calmly.
"Thank you..." The girl was silent for a while and asked: "But, why?"
"what why?"
"Master Demon Searcher is willing to release a sinner like me. You must be a strong man... I also heard the soldiers shouting. Is it all your fault?"
"it's me."
The girl then said: "You save me, do you want me to do something for you?"
A sneer appeared on Thain's face, and the army doctor caught a glimpse of it. He immediately lowered his head and felt a chill. But his voice remained calm: "What can you do for me?"
"As long as I take good care of myself... Just a little better, sir, I can shoot fireballs like that again——"
"——No need." Thain interrupted her.
The girl was stunned, then nodded dryly: "Yes, I am a useless cursed person after all..."
"Who said you were cursed?"
The girl was silent for a while and then said in a difficult voice: "Mother, father... the folks, and the demon searchers, they all said that I was a cursed blasphemer. That's why I was searched for demons."
Take it away, gentlemen."
"That's not a curse, that's a talent, kid." Thain said slowly. "What you have is not a curse. On the contrary, it's a talent that many people don't envy."
After he finished speaking, the girl not only did not understand, but on the contrary, her face was full of doubts: "Talent?"
Thain answered her patiently: "Yes, talent. What you master is called magic. You are a natural mage, kid. Oh, I almost forgot to ask you... What is your name?"
"Elena...Sir, my name is Elena." She whispered.
"Very good, my name is Thane. Also, please don't call me "adult" anymore. You can call me "general" or "sir", but I am not anyone's adult. Besides, I don't need you to do anything for me. You are still just a child.
, try to grow up." Thain stretched out his hand and covered her with a thin blanket. His gentle movements were incredible compared to his size.
"Remember this...and rest. A child like you, even in the poorest part of the empire, should live carefree until adulthood before thinking about anything else."
After saying that, he left, and silence returned to the camp. The army doctor followed him, never leaving, and heard him say: "Find the people from the Scarlet Secret Society... won't they be able to regenerate their limbs? Let
They try to see if the child can regain his sight."
The doctor bowed slightly and watched Thain leave.
----------------------------------------
Marsino hasn't returned to Xiongdu for a long time. Since he became an adult, he has found this place to be more and more disgusting. Although those tall and white buildings are beautiful and full of the designer's ingenuity, but
In his opinion, their only function is to block sunlight.
Apart from that, there is nothing else.
No one in the upper class can see the shaded corners under the sun. Just like no one can see the ordinary people who are living in pain.
But he came back, he had to come. The promise to Galen Crownguard made him go against his own nature, and in an uncontrollable trance, he knocked on the door of the Crownguard family late at night.
This is not a good choice.
Generally speaking, the visit will be chosen during the day, and it will be during the day when the weather is particularly good. Especially for a person with such a glorious name as Crown Guard, Marsino's behavior at this time is no different from an offense - but he does not
No choice.
Not long after, the doorman with an impatient expression opened the door. He yawned: "Sir, what do you want? It's late at night - God of Flying Wings, the medal in your hand
Where did it come from?!"
"Speak softly!" Marsino looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and said eagerly and quietly: "I was entrusted by Commander Galen to see Miss Laxana!"
The guard immediately pulled him in, then closed the door very quickly and locked it. He waved to Marsino and motioned for him to follow him. The two began to walk through the magnificent mansion of the Crown Guard family.
.
"You're lucky, sir. Miss Laxana should be awake right now. Alas, Ms. Tiana should really pay attention. She is still young, how can she not care about her body so much?" the doorman said nonchalantly, Mal.
Only then did Sennuo notice that he looked very old.
"How long have you been at Crownguard's, sir?"
"Me?" The doorman smiled. "Thirty years ago, I was here when Ms. Tiana was a child."
They walked all the way up to the third floor. What Marsino saw along the way made him slightly worried - the decline of the Crown Guard family was no longer a secret, at least not in the circles of Xiongdu. But he did not expect that the Crown Guard family
How could our home be in this state of decline?......
Except for the most basic and necessary decorations, such as chandeliers, carpets, and vases, other decorations such as knight armor or oil paintings have all disappeared, and the corridors appear empty. The nobles would have placed these things in the corridors.
of.
Moreover... using an old man who has been here for thirty years as a doorman is a job that should be done by young and strong young men.
The guard took him to a stop outside a brown-red wooden door. He stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, and said softly: "Miss Laxana! Are you still awake?"
There was a heavy sound from inside, and a panicked female voice said calmly: "Ah, ah. I'm here, Mr. Hunter, what's the matter?"
The guard glanced at Marsino with an apologetic smile, and continued: "A gentleman comes to visit you with Master Galen's medal!"
"...I understand. Ask him to wait for a moment, and we will meet in the reception room." The girl's voice calmed down completely, and the etiquette she showed at this time made Marsino feel slightly relieved.
Gu Xian
He hadn't sat in the reception room for long before Miss Laxana Crownguard arrived.
She is as beautiful as the rumors say, with blond hair and smooth skin. If the situation were different, Marsino would be happy to spend ten minutes praising her beauty, just to get a shy smile. But not now, now is not the time. .
Marsino placed the badge on the low mahogany table in the reception room and said in a deep voice: "I met with Commander Galen at the border during the day today..."
He repeated what he and Galen had said in full, and Miss Laxana's face became worse and worse as he recounted it. She narrowed her eyes, and her expression at that moment reminded Marsino of Tiana Crownguard, the current patriarch of the Crownguard family, is known for her iron-fist approach.
"So, you are saying that those nobles are planning to rebel? This is a very serious correction."
"I swear to God this is true and not false."
"But, that doesn't make sense." She looked very beautiful even with her frown, and even had a charm to her. "The Noxians are almost reaching the Castle of Dawn today, and they still dare to choose to unload their weapons at this time. Brother’s military rank? That would be too stupid.”
Marsino shook his head: "They have something else to rely on, Miss Laxana. Do you know about the magic seekers?"
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Marsino felt that Miss Laxana's face turned a little pale the moment he mentioned the Demon Seeker.
"I know, what's wrong?"
"Magic seekers are the minions of those nobles. Unlike you, who came from the glorious family of the Crown Guard. Most of the nobles in the capital only know pleasure all day long, and they will not give up their privileges like Commander Galen." Take the initiative to join the army...I said it's far away."
"In short, the demon hunters have been persecuting mages for so many years, and they actually have only one purpose - do you know that 100-meter giant statue located on the guardian square?"
Of course I know... Laxana thought. I often run to chat with him when I have nothing to do.
"He is actually alive." Marsino said solemnly. "Although I know this sounds like a dream, but I -"
Laxana interrupted: "I believe you."
Marsino was stunned: "Uh - that would be perfect."
He coughed and then said: "That giant statue is usually just a lifeless stone statue, but if there is enough magic power, he can move. Take a rest, Miss Laxana! A hundred-meter giant statue, No. No matter how many soldiers the Xans send out, they can't stop him!"
"That's why they think it doesn't matter whether they have Commander Galen or not. Rather, they wish he wouldn't come back! Then they would have a reason to remove him from his post after the war! I think this is also the reason why they are so confident."
Marsino came to a conclusion. He was worried, but found Laxana showing a smile.
"Then they have nothing to fear, sir. By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet?"
"...Marsino, just call me Marsino."
"Okay, Marsino, but you don't know something. The Colossus actually has self-awareness. He is not a weapon without self-awareness. People pass by him and say hello to him. He knows these things. So if those nobles feel
If they can still drive him after doing those disgusting things, then they are totally wrong."
"But, how do you know these things?"
Laxana smiled and said: "Ah, that is the little secret of the Crown Guard family, Mr. Marsino."
----------------------------------------
"Commander, do we really want to go back?"
Galen heard his lieutenant ask.
"Of course. Do you have any questions, Corporal?"
The adjutant was silent for a while and replied: "...The soldiers were all confused. The Noxians just retreated not long ago. Who knows whether they will come back again? If we retreat, what will happen to the border people?"
The soldiers will certainly not be able to stop them."
"Very good, you raised a very meaningful question." Galen nodded and said: "Just today during the day, a Noxian invaded the capital. He broke through the four layers of defense and left.
The Castle of Dawn is only separated by a wall."
"What?"
Ignoring the adjutant's stunned expression, Galen continued: "I know this may be hard to believe, but, Corporal."
He stared into the corporal's eyes and said word for word: "I swear on my name and my honor, if we don't go back, then everything will be too late!"
"...I believe you, Commander." The corporal said, making way so that Galen could leave the room: "But the soldiers obviously need an explanation. Do you want to talk to them?"
"Of course, Corporal." Galen smiled. "Explanation is necessary. You go ahead and inform them. We will see you at the training ground later."
After a while, he saw all the soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard on the training ground. This was an elite unit with a small number of people.
Galen looked around and said loudly: "I know you are all confused. You feel that returning to the capital at this time is not only disobedient, but also gives those Noxians an opportunity. But!"
He slowed down his tone: "But soldiers, friends, brothers... please believe me."
Galen looked sincerely at these brothers and sisters who had fought with him for many years, and he said sincerely: "The Noxians invaded the capital as early as today during the day, and even broke through the four lines of defense. They were close to dawn.
The castle is very close, but we haven’t received any news, and we are still stationed here at the border!”
"If the capital is lost, what's the point of continuing to guard the border? You may not understand why we haven't received any news - the answer is simple! Because the enemy is not only the Noxians, but also some moths from within!"
The fearless pioneers remained silent, but many people had begun to look at each other. Obviously, although the capital was far away from the border, there was no airtight wall in the world. They would have heard about what the nobles were doing.
At least, what Galen said is right - there are indeed some borers inside Demacia.
Galen took a deep breath. It was very difficult for him to make this decision. But he had to do it.
He looked at the fearless pioneers with firm and determined eyes: "I never lie, but I will never force others to do anything. If anyone wants to stay, you can raise your hand, and you will continue to exist as the fearless pioneers."
In the end, no one raised their hand.
