Chapter Seventy-Nine, Captivity

"Just going out for a walk. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Faced with Tyrone's question, "Where have you been?" Lines replied

"The first time I've been outside of Noxus, I'm a little curious. ā€

Tyrone stared at Lines for a moment, didn't say anything, and turned to get out of the way.

"Come on, Svein has the next step to deploy. ā€

What's next?

Lines was a little surprised.

He had been looking for an excuse to stay in Freljord, but this time it was more convenient.

As soon as he entered, Lines saw Svein sitting on the couch, his hand rubbing his cane, and his eyes closed.

Katerina, on the other hand, leaned against the wall beside her, her head bowed, not knowing what she was thinking.

"What are you doing?"

At this moment, Svein suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Lines.

"Only...... Just to go shopping. ā€

Lines tried to calm himself down, he knew that Svein was absolutely doubting himself.

"Hehehe...... It's naturally good for young people to be curious. ā€

Suddenly, Svein laughed wryly.

"Anyone who can't help but wander around an interesting place like Freljord. ā€

At this, Svein's face suddenly changed and he stood up.

"But this place, if it belongs to Demacia, is not interesting. ā€

With that, Svein placed a picture on the table.

"We have information that Demacia is preparing to negotiate with a high-ranking member of the Frost Guardian Clan, which would greatly improve relations with Frey King Rui Zhuo if they succeed. ā€

Everyone's eyes fell on the photo on the table.

A pale-skinned, masked Freljord woman sits in the photograph

At this point, Caterina seemed to remember something:

"Frost Guards, isn't that tribe already surrendering to Avarosa?"

"It's just a nominal surrender, this tribe holds a lot of the secrets of Freljord, such as the portal to the Wailing Abyss, the power left behind by the Iceborn, or something...... Actually, I don't know what power those things will leave behind. ā€

Svein coughed twice and continued.

"But none of that matters, the important thing is that we can't let Demacia get their way. ā€

"Assassination?"

Caterina asked.

"When you can stop saying these two words, you will inherit your father's position. ā€

While!

A dagger was thrust into the table in front of Svein, less than half a centimeter from his hand to get the teacup.

"My father's office will always be my father's, and he will come back one day. ā€

Caterina lowered her head, and Lines couldn't see her expression clearly, but judging from the expressions of the people around her, Svein should have said something that shouldn't have been said.

"Ahem...... Okay, let's move on. ā€

Svein coughed twice, and Katerina's cooperation in the past two days made Svein forget that the girl in front of him was not his staff officer.

"If it's an assassination, it's just going to be a stalemate with Freljord...... That nobleman can accept Demacia, not necessarily Noxus, and we can win her over with enough benefits. ā€

At this moment, Svein's eyes suddenly fell on Lines.

"You are responsible for the specific negotiations. ā€

"Me?"

Lane never expected that Svein would give himself such a play, and asked in surprise.

"Old crow, I hope you're not joking. ā€

Katerina is incredible, too.

"I've never been joking, I think this kid is better than you two. ā€

With that, Svein stepped forward and handed a letter to Lines with a smile.

"Right...... I'm sure you won't let me down. ā€

At this time, somewhere in the Glacier Fortress.

It's been a long time since Lux woke up.

The surrounding area is covered with cyan stone walls, and through the cracks in the walls, there are gusts of cold wind that look like they have fallen into disrepair.

The Glacier Fortress is currently inhabited by only one gate, and much of the area is unexplored, so these unrenovated structures are not suitable for human habitation, but they are a good choice as a prison.

Crackling!

Intense flashes of light shone on the wall, leaving only a tiny scorch mark.

If I had practiced magic well, I might have been able to escape now.

Although Lux regrets it now, it is too late.

His hand reached into his pocket, and inside lay a bracer converted from a collar - perhaps because Lines had been unprofessionally modified, and when Lux woke up, he found that the restraint circle on it had failed.

"That guy...... What are you doing now?"

Sitting back in the corner, looking at the closed, rusty door, Lux began to fantasize that now the door would be opened, and that her brother or the royal brother would come to her rescue, or ......

Click......

Suddenly, the door creaked open.

"Lines ......"

Lux was pleasantly surprised, just got up, and was deflated when she saw someone coming.

"I'm sorry, not your sweetheart. ā€

Tyrone walked into the room with a tray and said to Lux.

"What are you doing here?"

Lux looked at Tyrone warily, she knew that Tyrone had sent her here.

Unfazed, Tyrone gestured to the plate in the tray.

"Food...... Maybe you can't feel it, but it's dinner time. ā€

Placing the plate on the ground, Tyrone clapped his hands.

"You'd better put away the little tricks behind you, although it's more useful for you to live, but if you're really too naughty, I don't mind spicy hands destroying flowers. ā€

"Woo......"

Listening to Tyrone's words, Lux put away the slowly glowing light on her hand hidden behind her back.

The person in front of him is a sneak attack master, and he can't please him in front of him.

"Alright, my mission is complete, and the next time we meet, you may be going to get out of here. ā€

With that, Tyrone prepared to go out.

"Wait...... Wait. ā€

Lux called out to Tyrone.

He ...... How's that guy doing?"

"Him?"

Tyrone was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

"You said that kid...... Don't worry, he now thinks you've made it back to Demacia. ā€

"Yes...... Is it. ā€

Hearing this, Lux lowered her head, looking lost.

"I really don't understand, why did that kid do this for you? Maybe it was really love at first sight?"

Tyrone shook his head and said, but he didn't expect Lux's face to turn red.

"What...... What love at first sight, don't talk nonsense. ā€

"Oh, so you're looking for another reason for me?"

Tyrone asked rhetorically.

"This ...... I ......"

Lux kept her head down, stuck where she was, stammering and unable to speak.

Really, I told her what to do.

Tyrone smiled self-deprecatingly, closed the door, locked it, and walked out.
