Chapter 177: Verdict of Justice
Demacia
A kingdom full of light, the whole country is thriving under the leadership of a wise leader, and under the absolute rule of the Shield family, it is difficult for any traitor to have the slightest influence on the powerful power of Demacia.
It is the mushrooming of elite divisions that has allowed Demacia's civilization to continue to this day.
The Power of Demacia - Galen, a wise and martial man, was born in the Demacian Corona family, and resolutely and firmly carried out Demacia's absolute orders.
As a warrior of Demacia, Galen unreservedly guarded the country's territory and ideals. Dressed in heavy armor to protect against magic and armed with a broadsword, Galen will take the lead in even brutal battles for the safety of his country.
Both Galen and his sister Lux were from the ancient and noble family of the crownguard in Demacia. The glory of the crown guard family comes from the role of protector that has been passed down from generation to generation. Galen's father, Pete, was a loyal guardian of King Gavin III throughout his life, so in order to pass on this glory, Galen was trained from an early age to protect the king's son, Gavin IV, in preparation for the coronation of a new king. With this important responsibility, the elders of the family instilled in Galen the unshakable pride of "Demacia" and all that these four words carried.
The founding fathers of Demacia were a group of victims who survived the Rune Wars. They have experienced the horror of the misuse of magic and are determined to seek a peaceful life.
Many people are reluctant to talk about that dark age, but Galen's uncle often talks about magic. He is an elite scout in Demacia.
In order to protect Demacia from magic, he was always on the highest alert. Occasionally, Galen's uncle would venture beyond the walls to search for hidden magical threats. He tells Galen that the outside world has countless wonders, but also countless dangers.
Someday, the walls will be attacked by enemies, it may be mages, it may be void creatures, it may be something unimaginable, and this day will surely come, because peace in this world never lasts. But even if it's only a little extended, it's still worth trying to protect.
Seven months later, Galen's uncle was tragically killed in an accident. It is said that he was killed on the battlefield, but Galen soon learned from the whispers of the family that his uncle had been killed by a mage's bloodletting curse.
Galen's fear of magic deepened, and he vowed never to let magic go beyond the walls of Demacia. Only by following Demacia's ideals and demonstrating Demacia's power can the kingdom be saved from magic.
After the death of his uncle, it seems that all of Demacia gathered around Galen. Strangers in the streets, including civilians with no belongings, would mourn him when they saw him, offering gifts and comforting him.
Despite his grief, Galen was finally able to witness the united kingdom of Demacia. People take care of each other and comfort each other's sorrows, regardless of each other. He saw an ideal perfect Demacia, where no one was truly a lonely individual.
Despite this, the threat of magic has always haunted Galen's mind, often making him a snake and a rumor. There was always a thought in his heart tormenting him, and he suspected that his sister Lux actually had the power of magic, but he never dared to delve into it.
As the child of the crown guard family, he has the forbidden power to kill their relatives, and he can't face this fact.
At the age of twelve, he left home and joined the Intrepid Vanguard. He worked day and night in military training and strategic studies, rejecting people thousands of miles away, and abandoning friendship and love. Galen worked on his swordsmanship against the clock, even after the training session.
His commander often had to confiscate his practice sword after nightfall so that he wouldn't sneak out of the barracks and fight his shadow.
While training in the Vanguard Legion, Galen met Gavin IV, who would most likely become the next king, the man Galen would protect. Galen's appearance irritates Galen. He redoubled his training efforts because he saw in the young prince extraordinary talents.
The two became close partners and always couldn't wait to practice against each other. On the day of the training, Galen gave Galen a brooch with the emblem of a Demacian eagle carved on it, meaning that Galen would always be the guardian of his sworn brother.
During the Noxian invasion of Demacia, Galen was known for his prowess and prowess, and was hailed as one of Demacia's greatest warriors. In order to protect his comrades and kill the enemy, even in the face of the danger of losing his limbs, Galen never flinched for a moment.
In his search for the Holy Grail, which never dries out, he used his chest to block a crossbow arrow for his men. He also crossed the Silent Forest without a piece of armor, ambushing the filthy servants of the rancid Lord.
Despite his bravery, Galen suffered the worst defeat of his life in a Noxian attack and failed to protect his prince. At that time, Govin IV ignored the advice of his staff and led his men to chase the retreating Noxian warband.
Young Gavin is desperate to avenge the slaughter of hundreds of villagers, but fails to realize his sloppiness. Noxus feigned the withdrawal of his troops, but it was actually a trap, and the prince and his men were all captured alive.
Galen was furious at his mistake, and he couldn't get there when Gavin needed him most. He had always known that Gavin was prone to acting recklessly in the heat of battle, so he was even more annoyed that he had not anticipated the prince's impulsiveness in advance. So, Galen took a small group of knights and set out to find the captured prince.
Galen and his men discovered the Noxus camp, but found only Gavin's armor, which was piled up next to the blood-soaked execution table.
The brooch of the Demacian Eagle stood out in the muddy pool of blood. Although Galen stubbornly searched the prince's whereabouts in the wilderness, he knew in his heart that Gavin was dead.
Galen spent some time in grief-stricken. He felt that he had killed the prince, and his family and colleagues tried their best to persuade him but to no avail. He remembered that when his uncle died, the whole kingdom gathered around him.
He hoped that he could do something for the relatives of the fallen soldiers. He moved to the barracks to live with his comrades-in-arms, and gave all his savings to the families of the martyrs.
This is the respect for the highest etiquette of these warriors as the prince of the Light Shield Family.
