Chapter 32: The Black Rose

Holding the sword of the shield of the once hero of Noxus and now the great heretic Prince of Sacktorus of the Holy See, Augustus walked out of Tekratan, a fragrant place where the aristocratic and rich lingered. Augustus didn't think about finding a few women with outstanding posture and noble and elegant temperament like aristocrats to lie on the warm and luxurious chuang to "meet frankly" and talk about ideals and life, but unfortunately the only regret was that he didn't have enough Bourbon silver coins and scattered gold coins in his pocket to pay for them, so under the gesture of Young Master Pompey with a smile, Augustus also left the place where he was also a little nostalgic.

After Augustus left, Yurimos, who had led him to the Tekratan Hotel, walked in with doubts, he looked up at Pompey with a smile on his face, and said, "Master Pompey, is that the sword of the Holy Aegis??" ”

Pompey smiled, he didn't want to be a nobleman with a good aristocratic demeanor at the moment, he leaned his hands under the wooden frame of the window, and was looking down at the world outside the window, to be precise, he was looking at Augustus who had gradually gone away, he did not directly return to his father's most loyal servant, the once brave knight, the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of disdain, indifferently swept the smiles that looked so false in his eyes, and said slowly: "When the knife is on the neck, no matter how many gold coins, no matter how wonderful the collection, All of them can only be a welcome gain for the winners. That being the case, why not send those wonderful collectibles out to do something meaningful or even change the situation when the knife is still some distance from the neck? Jurimos, do you say that a lowly commoner can rebel against the decisions of a nobleman who is rich and powerful? ”

Yurimos was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and said, "The Gnaeus family will rise under the leadership of the young master!" ”

Pompey smiled, remembering the shattered Gnaeus family, Pompey leaned back on the cushion and muttered to himself, "It may be very difficult to rebuild a noble family, but revive an ancient family that has fallen into decay." Isn't it difficult? It is not difficult to find the root of the Fall, but the cure? It's a pity that a good time is missing! Just wait. ”

The bright room seemed to be swallowed up by a thick darkness in an instant.

A room full of books, with the unique luxury of the nobility, the city lord of Urgart grinned brightly and looked at Svein, who was sitting in front of the copywriter, holding the Holy See's immortal holy book "Teachings", and said softly and happily: "Lord Svein, maybe you overestimate the strength of the Black Rose, according to the current situation, those guys who hide in the sewers and live in the shadows like rats do not have the courage to invade the upper class of Alder City. It's a shame. The blood that I thought was easy to get was actually far away from me. ”

The voice made no secret of its heartfelt mockery and disdain for the mysterious organization "Black Rose". Svein frowned, glanced at Urgat, who was with a strong militarism and solipsism, looked down at Urgat, who stood respectfully and respectfully in front of him like a docile sheep, and sneered: "Urgat, I give you a piece of advice from the bottom of my heart: don't despise your opponents, especially the enemies who hide in the dark and stare at every detail of your actions with a pair of resolute and patient eyes, when you show flaws, you are facing death at the same time!" In this world, Lady Luck does not always favor one person. Even if you are born lucky, one or two negligence on the part of Lady Luck is enough to bury any great man in a bottomless grave. ”

Urgat smiled wryly and nodded a little innocently. Few people in Noxus dare to be a cunning and irascible guy like him, who firmly controls the unparalleled authority of Alder City in Alder City. No one dared to say anything openly against him. If the person who spoke to him with this kind of teaching, or even a slight disdain, was not Svein, a mysterious man from the imperial capital of Noxus, then the Lord of Urgart, who liked to hide a knife in his smile the most, would probably have slept peacefully after sending the person who taught him out of the city lord's mansion with a smile.

As for the second day, the lesson accuses him of ignorance. You will never see the sun the next day.

Urgat thought for a moment, then looked up at Svein, who was still staring at the Teachings, and said, "Ambush soldiers lying around Stirolan Square. I didn't feel that there were strangers entering or leaving Stiroran Square, maybe the Black Rose was not stationed in Alder City, a city that was not very prosperous in Noxus, and could change the political situation of Alder City! Therefore, I establish Your Excellency Svein, and we still divert most of our energy to selecting qualified and useful people for Noxus is the first priority at the moment! ”

"The remaining one hundred and fifty-two victors in Styroland Square today are all good in martial arts, courage, and wisdom, and should be able to help Noxus conquer the continent of Varowan."

Putting down the obscure "Teachings" that few people can read even in the Holy See, Svein stood up from the mat, he quietly walked up to Ergat, patted Ergat's shoulder, and said with a look of relief on his face: "You who have always only known how to kill a few Demacian soldiers and destroy a few defensive cities of your opponent have also understood that talent is the foundation of the Noxian Federation's conquest of the Valoran Continent, Ergat, it seems that you have really grown up." ”

The eyes of the city lord of Ergat, whose face was scarred and looked particularly hideous, flashed an undisguised consternation in his eyes, and then an indescribable excitement, he looked at Svein in front of him respectfully and even reverently, bowed his head reverently, and muttered: "If Ergart is still stagnant, how can you still look up to your back teacher?" ”

The nobles of Alder City, who were familiar with the usual cunning and hypocrisy of the lord of Urgart, would be shocked to see this scene in front of them, and even those with resolute minds would think that they were hallucinating.

In the eyes of the nobles of Alder City, Urgart is always the embodiment of cunning, hypocrisy, and ruthlessness, while in the eyes of the residents of Alder City, Urgart is a symbol of rebellion, tallness, and sacredness.

Svein's face was expressionless, he patted Urgart's shoulder, and pulled up Urgat, who was only seven or eight years younger than him, but was the teacher of this powerful figure on the battlefield, he looked up at the starry sky outside the door, and sighed: "There is no shame in looking up, stagnation is not the abyss of a warrior, a warrior only needs to have a faith that is ready to fight against any violation of his inner convictions, even if his body has been weakened by the passage of time, he is also a true warrior." Ergat, I want you to remember what I said to you next. ”

"If Demacia is a boulder that must be eradicated on the road to Noxus unification, then the Black Rose is an obstacle that must be broken on the road to Noxus unity, and a united Noxus can truly unify the continent of Varojan." At this moment, a green light erupted from Svein's eyes.

A terrifying temperament that looked at the world and laid out the common people suddenly permeated the entire City Lord's Mansion.

Ergart knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, "Yes, teacher!" ”

There was no joy on Svein's face at Urgart's answer, and for a person like Svein who deals with powerful people and politicians every day, emotions that symbolize their hearts are already a luxury. Expressions are just a tool they use to confuse their opponents.

Ergarte looked at the back of this great shore in the past, and now he let himself look up to the back of no lack of qualifications, and Ergarte sighed in his heart. Originally, this person in front of him would become the patron saint in the hearts of the residents of Noxus, and the first knight of the Noxus Empire that the Noxus Empire was most proud of.

Ergarth thought that Svein was going to go on and Du? While General Quekao symbolized the status of the soul of the Noxian army, Svein embarked on a path of slow politician at his peak, which was completely different from the thorns along the way, and there was no way forward.

"The army is not a tool in the hands of politicians, what I need is not a slogan, but a fact that cannot be tampered with!" These were the last words of Svein after leaving his fifteen-year military career and stepping into politics.

To this day, Urgart still remembers Svein's resolute and fearless back.

Urgat, who had already left the army and came to Alder City to become the lord of Alder City according to Svein's wishes, did not know how far Svein's path of politician had come and what position he had reached.

It's just that from time to time it is rumored from the imperial capital that some aristocratic heads have been brought to the political stage because of something, and behind these things there seems to be Svein's back, and Urgart understands that the teacher has gone further and further on the road of politicians.

In fact, Urgart didn't know that his position as the lord of Alder City was the resolution proposed by Svein in the House of Representatives, and no one dared to oppose this middle-aged man who was a little short and a little inflexible.

It took Svein ten years to prove what he had said when he was young: "Anyone who is a nobleman, as long as Svein wants to, is just an ant under my feet." (To be continued.) )
