Chapter 124 I'm Back
"What is that?"
"It seems to have entered that house. Can we go in and take a look?"
"Look, His Majesty has passed!"
At the Demacia Xiongdu Station, the train slowed down in just a few seconds. After stopping at the platform, a group of people rushed down from the train, and another group of people squeezed in from outside the station.
After getting off the train, Lux hesitated again and again, and finally put on the hood she had prepared in advance, ready to cover her face and hide her identity.
From a glance on the train, Lux noticed that the scene was crowded, so she was still worried. After all, Lux knew very well that in the game between nobles, in their eyes, heresy or not was not important, and whether it could generate benefits for themselves was the most important.
But in the eyes of the simple Demacia people, Lux was now a real heretic.
But Lux had just put on the hood and felt a lot more relaxed. She even walked with the wind, and then Rowan reached out and pulled the hood off for her.
"What are you doing?" Lux looked at Rowan and sniffed.
Rowan pointed at Kassadin and said unhappily: "She didn't hide herself, why do you hide yourself? Compared with Kassadin, who will attract more attention?"
Lux blinked and thought that there was some truth in it.
Then, Rowan said again: "Are you not as presentable as Kassadin?"
"You" Kassadin immediately turned her head to look at Rowan, resisting the urge to curse.
Okay, calm down, Kassadin.
Just pretend you didn't hear it!
After all, you are eating and living at Rowan's place, and all your expenses are paid by Rowan, so you have to be patient!
Kassadin took a deep breath and stared at the back of Rowan's head.
Lux just looked at Kassadin, who was staring at Rowan in front of her with a rare fierce expression on his face. She relaxed a lot at once. She laughed and patted Rowan, venting her anger for Kassadin: "What are you talking about? What is there that Kassadin can't see?"
"Don't make trouble. What I mean is that in the eyes of the Demacians, Kassadin will look like a heretic, or the lord of heretics? A monster hidden behind the mages?" Rowan thought while touching his chin.
Not to mention, Kassadin's purple skin and strange beauty really look like the villain boss female demon in the novel, although in fact Kassadin is a leader among the decent and kind.
The main point is a contrast?
She looks fierce and weird on the outside, but in fact she is beautiful and kind.
At first glance, she is a serious and cold queen, but in reality she is a greedy and gluttonous girl.
In short, Kassadin's camouflage color is really very intimidating.
At this time, the crowd entering the station became noisy and lively.
A group of Piltover women who got off the train bowed directly in that direction and took off their hats to show respect.
Naturally, it was King Jarvan III who came to the scene. His appearance attracted the attention of the Piltover people in the station. All Piltover people looked forward to the man with gray hair and beard who was surrounded by the crowd and walked towards this side.
At first glance, he was a gentle old man with luxurious clothes, but with his identity, a sense of aura appeared.
The man in front of him is the master of the west of the continent of Valoran!
"Demacia welcomes friends from Piltover who have come from afar. Mette, help me receive them and arrange a residence for every Piltover woman in the capital." Jarvan III said with a smile.
"Thank you, kind king." A nobleman among the Piltover people leaned over and said.
Jarvan III smiled, and then he looked at the three guys standing behind the Piltover people.
He focused his eyes on the blonde girl and the black-haired boy who were chatting. Then, Jarvan III took a deep breath and shouted, "What? You two have been out for a year, and when you come back to see the king, you don't even do the greeting?"
As soon as this was said, all the Demacians at the scene looked at Jarvan III at the same time.
Under the attention of the crowd, Rowan and Lux could no longer hide.
And Jarvan III was still saying, "It's okay for Rowan, a wild boy, to do this, but what's wrong with you, Laxana? Have you forgotten the etiquette of the Crown Guard family while playing outside?"
Tiana, who was standing aside, heard it and hesitated to speak.
Lux was "expelled from the family" by her in public.
Did His Majesty forget about this?
Impossible. Although His Majesty's hair looks gray, he is actually in his prime. After all, His Royal Highness is less than 20 years old. Tiana has reason to suspect that Jarvan III's gray hair was dyed by himself!
But Tiana didn't speak in the end.
She chose to take a step back, standing behind Jarvan III, and then silently watched Lux.
Interestingly, no one at the scene brought up this matter, as if what had happened on the execution ground in the Grand Plaza had never happened.
The nobles kept silent, and some even lowered their heads silently and didn't look at Lux.
Lux was startled, and then immediately pulled Rowan into the crowd, but it wasn't really a squeeze, because the crowd actively dispersed, leaving Rowan and Lux a passage.
When she arrived in front of His Majesty Jarvan III, Lux was not wearing a skirt, so she could not lift her skirt to perform the etiquette of a noble lady. So, she made a knight's salute to Jarvan III, placed her hand on her chest, and said with a serious face: "Laxana Crownguard, meet the great king."
Jarvan III smiled kindly and patted Lux on the head.
This action also caused several nobles behind Jarvan III to tilt their heads.
Bad food
The king is now just about to ride on their faces and attack them.
Anyone who dares to mention what happened a year ago is really against the king.
Against the king who is supreme in Demacia?
Ha. Even if you are from the Crownguard family, the king has the ability to deal with you, do you believe it?
The peace, justice and openness of the Xiongdu are because Jarvan III is an enlightened emperor. Otherwise, Jarvan III would share power with the Lightshield family and support other nobles. It would not be difficult to exclude the Crownguard family.
Although the Lightshield family would never do that, since the generation of Jarvan I, the Lightshield family and the Crownguard family have maintained contact for generations, and it is an open and secret relationship.
Therefore, Jarvan III is apparently saying that Lux is impolite, but in fact, his meaning is clear to the nobles.
It is nothing more than warning those nobles who want to make trouble with this matter to think about it first.
"What about you?" Jarvan III looked at Rowan again, with a smile on his lips.
Rowan looked at the old emperor and smiled. After accepting it, he stood beside Lux and made a Demacia knight's salute to Jarvan III.
"Your Majesty, I'm back."
"Okay." Jarvan III took a sword handed by someone next to him and faced Rowan.
"Kneel down."
Rowan was stunned, then half-knelt to Jarvan III, and then Jarvan III used the sword to point at Rowan's shoulders. Finally, he looked at Rowan and handed over the sword with both hands.
"As a knight, how can I forget my sword?" Jarvan III looked at Rowan and said.
Rowan smiled and raised his hands to take the dragonstone sword.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
