Chapter 71: Provocation

The orthodox knight of the Noxian Empire is dressed as a knight, and it belongs to the kind of knight armor that will not cause much sensation even if he walks on the civilian streets of St. Peter's City, but it is such a young knight who is very arrogant and rude: "Svein, please give him to me!" ”

Doesn't this Imperial Knight know that Lord Svein holds a pivotal position in the Empire? Isn't he afraid that Lord Svein will completely cut off the future of his knightly guild and the door to the aristocratic world of the Knoxsas Empire?

Almost everyone at the banquet felt a trace of pity for the young Imperial knight, and looked like an idiot at the banquet held by the Constantine family with a broadsword, and asked the honorable Lord Svein for a criminal whose nationality belonged to the Demacian Empire.

Although the female heiress of the Laurent family has a somewhat striking face, this is not a reason for an imperial knight to be desperate. Women, as long as there are enough Caesar gold coins and power, a large number of women will voluntarily climb the chuang to dedicate themselves.

The few young people who attended the banquet showed strange clarity on their faces, and the most obvious one was the rude and arrogant Barton, who patted his dark face with his hand, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Is this guy so high-profile every time he appears?" What a guy who was born to be the main character! I wonder if Augustus will be able to surprise me like the Cathedral of Eugustin. ”

Provoking General Svein? The thought flashed through Barton's mind, and the smile on his lips became thicker and more playful. Someone dares to provoke General Svein? Perhaps, but he Barton didn't dare to provoke this old immortal who not only held the scepter, but also had strong strength.

Augustus, for the guy who had made General Burnham willing to be a green leaf in the sacred Egustine Cathedral a year ago, Patton, Rommel, Octavian. It is impossible for this group of young people who have always had an extreme desire for power and power to know that this time Augustus returned to St. Peter's City not with the same shame of defeat as their group of imperial geniuses, but with the glory of victory, and it is naturally impossible for Augustus not to hide it.

However, because Augustus refused the aristocratic banquet, the imperial elites who were very familiar with the name Augustus were not familiar with Augustus as a person. Only a few paranoid people such as Patton, Rommel, and Offitt have firmly remembered the guys who amazed among the nobles and then completely disappeared into the world of the imperial aristocracy.

Watch this guy reappear. Actually challenging General Svein, the emotions of Patton, Rommel and others are really complicated.

Admire? Doubt? A series of emotions flooded the mind.

Is this a provocation? The corners of Svein's mouth curled into a faint smile, and he looked at the imperial young man in front of him who prevented him from getting rid of the assassin sent by the Demacian Empire in front of him, his eyes were calm, but it made people feel like they were stepping into an abyss.

"Augustus, are you commanding me?"

Pure and light words resounded like thunder in the hall, and this voice was even more powerful in the hearts of everyone than Fiona, the heir of the Laurent family, said: "I am from the Laurent family, and I have come to remove Lord Svein's head".

The shock needs to be set off by strength, and although Fiona's words were shocking, no one thought that Fiona could have the ability to take down the head of Lord Svein, a powerful man in the empire, in front of everyone. And Svein's indifferent words undoubtedly pushed Augustus directly to the opposite.

Anyone who is qualified to go against an old immortal-level figure like Svein, no matter what, is qualified to be respected.

All eyes shifted from Fiona, the heir of the Laurent family, to the Imperial knight in front of her, who was dressed ordinarily but said something shocking to almost no one in the Empire. Enemy of Svein? Augustus thinks he doesn't have that weight? Augustus was a little surprised that the elegant, rational and wise Lord Svein had pushed himself to the opposite side with such a brutal gesture, but only in surprise.

No one can really guess the thoughts of an old politician who is at home in the center of imperial power, and if he does, then you should congratulate or have mercy on you, you are about to become a great man in the empire or you are about to sleep forever in the ground with your wisdom and intelligence.

Augustus glanced at the cold, sane heir to the Laurent family beside him. Augustus even wondered if it was foolish and ill-conceived to offend General Svein because of such a stupid, heartless woman, and possibly to seal himself up the ranks of imperial power.

"Isn't this Fiona?" Looking at the cold face in front of him. Such a thought naturally came to Augustus's mind, and the corners of Augustus's mouth immediately bloomed with a bright smile, looking at Lord Svein who was waiting for his answer in front of him, he lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "If you really think so, then forget it!" The disgrace of this Demacian Empire. Please hand it over to me, Lord Svein! ”

The tone was still neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no hint of toughness, but everyone understood Augustus' choice, and the reckless Imperial knight decided to stand against Lord Svein because of the woman born from the Laurent family of the Demacian Empire.

Excitement, doubt, hesitation, and pity all kinds of emotions appeared in the eyes of the young people of the empire who participated in this banquet. Eat one's heart out? Even Barton and Rommel did not deny that they were jealous of Augustus, who was lucky in their view. Augustus's fame was so lucky that it was even in the eyes of many young people who had worked hard to exchange their blood and countless deaths for the Imperial Medal: "If Augustus had not been supported by the towering tree of General Burnham, how could he have entered the Cathedral of Eurustine and joined them?" ”

But is that really the case? Only a few wise people who are not carried away by jealousy and resentment know that this is not the case.

Challenge the giants of the Empire? Hehe, the answer to this consequence is simply without any guesswork! Even many people seemed to see Augustus smiling and gently pressing his hand into the door of the abyss!

Great, maybe the Svein master at this time can be regarded as the real great person in their hearts!

"Why?" Only very few people would think about why Augustus, a guy with extraordinary political talent and an understanding of the aristocratic world comparable to that of some old aristocrats, would do such a thing that is absolutely not in the interests of the aristocracy and politicians.

It's a bit strange that this strange choice should appear in Augustus, a guy who has always been at ease in the aristocratic world.

Patton was thinking about it, Rommel was thinking about it, and even the first heir of the Mark family, who was very unkind to Augustus, and who was born in the city of Auder, was thinking about it.

But no one came up with an answer!

――――――

"Miss Lux, we need to get out of St. Peter's City quickly, the plan has failed!" Unsure of Kiris's intentions, Quinn eventually returned to the Demacian embassy to meet with Lux after some hesitation.

Looking at Quinn, who was not scarred all over his body, Lux nodded, his eyes were very calm, rational and without any doubts, and asked, "When are we leaving St. Peter's City?" ”

Quinn said in a deep voice: "The sooner the better, the water in the Noxus Empire is too deep, even if we have the intention of fishing in troubled waters, we can only walk on thin ice and can't find any direction." ”

Immediately, Quinn told the noble-born Lux that he had nothing to hide about his strange encounter at St. Peter's Castle.

Lux listened to Quinn's story very calmly, and finally sighed and said, "Augustus, this is really a nightmare guy everywhere, I really wish someone could send this guy to Lucifer's abyss hell!" ”

Quinn smiled, relieved that Miss Lux was still in the mood to joke at this time, a magician with extremely high talent is certainly a precious treasure of the Empire, but if this extremely talented magician can adapt to any kind of change, it is an important asset for the Empire.

Augustus? For this guy who is one of the culprits who caused his plan to fail, Quinn has a complicated look! Perhaps, as the Venerable Princess Kiris had said, her plan had failed because she had taken Augustus, a knight of the Noxian Empire, too lightly, or perhaps for other reasons.

But it is undeniable that Miss Lux owes most of his transformation to this, although this innocent Miss Lux has in her heart that one day she will push this fellow Augustus into the abyss of hell!

"What about Fiona, the heir to the Laurent family? Have you heard from him? A pleasant voice sounded in Quinn's ears, and immediately Quinn had a figure as cold as frost in Quinn's mind - Fiona!

Quinn shook his head and said, "I heard that there was an assassin of the Laurent family at the banquet held by the Constantine family, maybe it was Fiona!" ”

Lux smiled slightly, a very calm smile in a pair of sapphire pure eyes, and muttered to herself, "It seems that Fiona has proven the dignity of a duelist for the Laurent family!" Hehe, I wonder what kind of expression our Mr. Augustus will have when he knows about it? ”

Politician! Quinn looked at Lux with a pure smile in front of him, and such a word came to mind.

Quinn hates politicians very much, and she never imagined that this pure and lovely Lux, who grew up with her, would reveal such a politician's side.

Perhaps the heir of the Laxla Laurent family participated in this project and expected this outcome!

Revenge, is this Lux's revenge on Augustus?

But what does Fiona have to do with Augustus, the knight of the Noxian Empire?

Looking at the slight smug smile on Lux's lips, Quinn knew that perhaps only Lux and Augustus and Fiona knew about it. (To be continued.) )
