Time passes inadvertently.

The story of the War College Open Day, whether it was Ryan's miraculous magic or Ezreal's prophecy, slowly spread to the various regions.

The Freljord tribes are still at war with each other, especially after they discover that the Noxus army has disappeared from the ice fields, and the conflict between the tribes has intensified.

The sand people of Shurima, because of the glory of Shurima in the past, are no longer in the past, but they are thinking about submitting to Noxus.

They had heard that the Explorers' Guild could be one of the explorers as long as they made historical discoveries.

This is the least force-free of all the methods currently available to join Noxus.

This is especially true for the Shurima Sha people, who can dig up ancient burial sites or ruins wherever they go out.

They began to dig in the sand like crazy, trying to find more monuments.

Piltover and Zaun, on the other hand, continued to develop quietly, and their leaders had gone to Noxus earlier to learn advanced ideas.

The position of the empire is their position.

The Giant God Peak was still shining with a beam of light that reached the sky, and there was no abnormal movement.

The only areas affected seem to be Demacia and Noxus.

Compared to Noxus, the situation is much more complicated.

The Crownguard family, second only to the King of the Light Shield family, is the family of the great nobles of Demacia.

In a room that resembled a conference chamber, there were two men and a woman on the long table.

They were Tiana Crownguard, Grand Marshal of Demacia, and her husband, Eldred, the head of the Demacian Demon Seekers.

With a squeak, the door opened, and the newly appointed Sword Captain, Galen Crownguard, walked in:

"Sorry, I'm late."

"Galen, the time is just right." Tiana said softly.

"Why do you recall me, now is the best time to reclaim the land occupied by Noxus."

Galen had a resolute face, a tall figure and heavy armor, and his armor was stained with blood, and his expression could not hide his tiredness.

The First Clan

He had just returned from the front, and the person who recalled him was none other than Generalissimo Demacia, who sat at the top, and was also his aunt.

"Discipline yourself and be strong."

Tiana said suddenly.

Galen's face was grim, and he blurted out:

"Diligence is rigid!"

This is the family motto of the crown guard, and it is also the cornerstone of Galen's life, so that he can always be as steady as a rock and concentrated.

As he said this, he quickly calmed down and looked at his aunt and uncle intently, waiting for the other party's next step.

"Darius is about to go to the front." Tiana said.

"He is known as the Hand of Noxus, and now he is one of the three presidents of the Noxus Council, representing the armed forces." Eldred added.

"I'm not afraid of him!" Galen's face was resolute, and he did not waver in the slightest.

"I'm sure you and the Dreadnought can stand up to him, and now Noxus has the intention of shrinking the line. We have called you back to say something else. Tiana didn't hesitate to look at her appreciation.

Galen was the child she watched grow up.

Heroic, fearless, loyal, righteous... He was a possession of almost all of Demacia's good qualities.

"Is there anything more important than war?" Galen's brow furrowed slightly.

"Look at this."

Tiana pointed to the wooden table, which had a number of photographs.

"It looks like the real thing, is it something new?" Galen was puzzled.

"This is a photo taken by Hex's camera, from the War College, which captures real-life scenes." Tiana explained.

"Good stuff. But... War College? ”

Galen frowned:

"Noxus stuff, we should be wary, this camera can change the means of obtaining intelligence in war."

"That's all secondary, they have too many ways to get our intelligence." Tiana said with a headache.

"Magic."

Galen just frowned and spat out two words.

He was bored with the magic of Noxus, and all kinds of methods came up one after another.

If it weren't for the weapons and armor made of the Forbidden Magic Stone, the battle would not have been able to be fought at all.

Before actually confronting the Noxian army, he was noncommittal about Demacia's handling of mages, only treating them as a rule set by the state.

But when he really went to the battlefield and became the commander of an army, he sometimes came up with some ideas that he shouldn't have.

If there were mages in Demacia's army, it would...

"Let me come back, I guess it's more than just this."

Galen shook his head, turning his attention back to the photo on the wooden table.

"Have you heard the prophecy coming from Noxus? This is the stone tablet. ”

Tiana pulled one out of the photo and pushed it in front of Galen.

Above it is a fiery red stone plaque, on which the golden Gushurima text is clearly recorded.

"I don't understand!"

After observing for a long time, Galen answered truthfully.

"There's a translator in the back." Tiana prompted.

"Oh!"

Galen reacted and hurriedly flipped over the photo.

On the back of the picture is a translation of the prophecy, written in the lingua franca of Runeterra Lands.

He frowned and looked at the game, a little uncertain:

"A prophecy of destruction about magic? But what does this have to do with Demacia, we don't have magic here. ”

"There's a mage who has made a deal with the Lightsshield family, and he's depositing something unknown beneath the Forbidden Forest." Tiana snorted.

"Mage? How could it be!? Galen looked incredulous.

Demacia had an almost deep hatred for mages, and once a mage was discovered in the territory, he was either exiled or imprisoned, and no one was spared.

In this case, how could the Light Shield Family, as the king, cooperate with the mage.

"That's a mage that the Shield Family and the Kingdom can't refuse, and we don't know what is hidden there, maybe only the Shield Family and that mage know." Tiana said.

"What do you mean?" Galen was a little confused.

It's just a prophecy circulated in Noxus, and it's not sure whether it's true or not. He doesn't see the need for a big deal at all.

"Galen, your future is more than a sword captain. Further up, strength alone is not enough. Tiana nodded.

Galen scratched his head, embarrassed on the surface, but unimpressed in his heart.

He understood his aunt's thoughts, but he really didn't want to learn those nonsense things, he just wanted to fight for Demacia with a sword.

Seeing Galen's face, Tiana shook her head and smiled bitterly and sighed:

"Gavin III's attitude has been strange lately, and he seems to want to relax his policy towards mages."

Gavin III is the king of present-day Demacia, and although he does not represent the entire country, he can also represent the idea of the greatest nobility of Demacia.

"There's nothing wrong with that, and many mages aren't wrong." Galen just said bluntly.

It is not in his justice for a magician to judge a person by virtue of his innate talent.

Especially, when he saw that the robe was killed by a rival mage. I always wonder why I can't have such a powerful help on my side.

But this is a rule that Demacia has passed down since its creation, and he will follow it even if he does not want to.

This is an ambivalent mentality, which makes him feel a sense of guilt in his heart every time he sees the demon finder arresting someone.

"No, don't think it's a trifle. According to the Runetera Continent calendar promulgated by Noxus, Demacia was founded in the year 292 of the Rune Continent calendar, and it is now 989. "Demacia has been going on for nearly 700 years. Galen, do you know what that means? ””

Due to the change of the royal family of Demacia, the kingdom calendar has also changed several times.

Therefore, in order to facilitate Galen's understanding, Tiana also directly used the calendar just promulgated by Noxus as an example.
