Chapter 314: The Light Shield Family (Jiawen IV Extra)

Unfortunately, Shivana herself is being hunted for the monstrous elemental dragon, Ivah. When the castle sentinels saw the dragon in the sky, Gavin saw an opportunity to make amends for himself.

As Sivana prepared to use her half-dragon form to face the beast in the air, the prince staggered down from his sickbed and personally led the garrison to support the city walls. He picked up his spear and vowed to remove Iva's head or never return to Xiongdu empty-handed.

The battle was swift and fierce. When his men left their posts out of fear, it was Garvin who held them together. When they were wounded, it was Jiawen who directed the therapist to save the wounded.

It was Sivana who killed the demonic beast, but it was the prince's leadership who held the line. At that moment, Gavin saw the true strength of the people of Demacia, united to defend their homeland, leaving behind their prejudices and doubts.

He promised Sivana that she would always have a place among his guards, as long as she chose to accept it.

Garvin dragged the dragon's skull back to his father's court, with Sivana by his side.

While the king had mixed feelings about his son's return, some of the nobles present quietly questioned that it was not wise to have this creature on the side of the prince, let alone make her a member of the guardians.

Despite this, Gavin returned to his position in the military and played a key role in the defense of diplomatic relations outside of his homeland.

His friend Galen is now a dreadnought swordsman, and the king is beginning to feel the weight of age, and the prince must ensure that he is ready to one day inherit the throne and become King Govin IV of Demacia.

Although extremely rare, the Runeterras do now have several habitats for elemental dragons. Long after the fall of the Shurima Empire, in a cave at the base of an unknown volcano, an ancient beast named Iva guarded one of her few dragon eggs.

Dragon eggs are not only something that wurms want to destroy, but they are also priceless treasures beyond mortal imagination, so there are many fearless or brainless people who want to try their luck. For many years, dozens or more thieves coveting dragon eggs became the charred meal in Eva's mouth, but in the end, one man succeeded.

The mage, who had suddenly made good fortune, clung to the giant dragon egg and fled the mountains, igniting Eva's fury in the jungle he passed.

The impossible happened, he made it to the shore, and the dragon had to return home. She had lost a dragon egg. There can be no more slip-ups.

The mage traveled to Piltover in the north, but before he could find a buyer, the eggs began to hatch. I don't know if it's because someone has moved out of the dragon's nest, or because the last bright moon in autumn heralds the arrival of winter, but something has changed.

What came out of the shell was not a young dragon, but a clear humanoid baby girl, with pale skin that was purple and red. Realizing that he could not abandon her, the mage raised the baby girl as his own, naming her "Shivana" as a tribute to the dark saga of her biological mother, Eva.

Shivana gradually began to manifest a nature beyond mortals. From a very young age, her appearance can change into something strange that resembles a half-dragon in ancient mythology.

This makes it difficult for her to live among ordinary Valoran residents, and the trouble doesn't stop there. One thing is for sure:

There is a connection between Eva and her missing daughter, and it has become stronger and stronger over time. When the other baby dragons finally flapped their wings and took off, Eva left the empty nest and flew across the ocean in search of Shivana's whereabouts.

The land is being ravaged by fierce border wars, but both the army and the villagers are scattered and fled as the dragon comes.

Sivana, looking for a place to live in the ruins of a farmhouse, watched as her adoptive father was consumed by fire as Iva flew low.

Young Shivana dragged him to a nearby forest, but there was nothing she could do. She hastily buried her adoptive father under a large oak tree, and then set off alone.

After weeks of wandering and hiding in the wild, Sivana smelled the faint smell of blood in the bushes. She found a wounded warrior, dying, and she knew that this man was something she could save.

Unafraid that she was being hunted by an angry dragon, she immediately took the form of a half-dragon and took the unconscious man away to an outpost on the border of Demacia in the distance.

In the castle of Leenwall, Sivana discovers that she has brought back no one else, but the only son of King Gavin IV de Macia, the heir to the throne.

Although the soldiers stationed here were suspicious of her purple skin and strange mannerism, they greeted Sivana because of their responsibility.

It seems that the people of Demacia will always look out for each other, and she has spent the most peaceful time of her life in the town.

But peace did not last. Shivana sensed darkness in the wind. Eva is coming.

The prince, who was gradually recovering, knew that he had to take command of the defenders of Levwall, so he organized the frightened inhabitants to hide inside the fortress and prepare for the upcoming battle.

Even so, Shivana was ready to continue her escape. Gavin stops her, and she admits that the dragon that hunted her is actually her relative. She couldn't allow her private affairs to kill other innocent people.

Gavin refused to let her go. Sivana saved his life, so he deserved to fight alongside her at such a time. His persistence impressed Shivana, and she accepted his offer.

Iva appeared in the air, and Demacia's archers fired round after volley, constantly disrupting Ivar. In response, she baptized battlements with flames, tore through stone walls with powerful claws, and swept the armoured warriors off the guardrails along the walls.

At that moment, Shivana stepped forward, transformed in the air, and let out a defiant roar at her birth mother. It's a sight rarely seen on Valoran since the Rune Wars: two dragons facing each other, fangs and claws crashing into the sky above Lenwall.

Eventually, a bruised and bleeding Shivana dragged Iva to the ground, wringing the dragon's neck on the hard stone slab.

The prince personally commended Sivana for her bravery, promising that as long as Sivana returned to his father's palace with him, he would always have her by his side.

They took Eva's skull as proof of their victory and set off together for Demacia.

Sivana learns that King Gavin III's realm is dividing and that the people's distrust of mages and magic has led them to deviate from the noble ideals of Demacia's founding.

Although she received a certain degree of acceptance as one of the prince's most trusted guards, she couldn't help but wonder if she would be treated as usual if her true nature was known.
