Chapter 139: Reading is also a gift
Ruil turned her head, and for the first time she met Seraphine's eyes.
Obviously, the girl in front of her is younger than herself, but she can completely see through her mind, and even make her mother, who only kneels for strength, grovel.
"Love me?"
Her tone was cold:
"She kept telling me: There is sacrifice before achievement."
"So, you have the ability to do it today." Seraphine said softly, "You have doubts in your heart about what was once the Black Rose Academy, and even the necessity of its existence, but... All the sacrifices have actually fulfilled you. ”
"You think those people deserve to die?" Ruil clenched her fists.
Once she was in the Black Rose Academy, and every once in a while she would arrange a fight.
And in every battle, she was told to use all her strength.
Whether or not she ended up staying, she never saw anyone who fought with her again.
Until one time...
She saw the truth firsthand.
After the battle, someone will be responsible for killing the defeated opponent, extracting the mana from his body and infusing it into a magic bottle.
She knew that magic bottle, and every time the academy teacher replenished her post-war magic power, she used that magic bottle.
Unfortunately, Ruil also saw her mother on that occasion.
Her mother stood by unharmed, watching the vanquished being killed.
"They don't deserve to die, but they die because of you."
Because she could hear the soul's song, Seraphine knew what Ruil was thinking. Even after listening to Ruil's mother's soul song, she knew better.
She didn't want to judge a mother's extreme thoughts, but the other person's behavior was absolutely wrong.
"It's not my choice!" Ruil's brows furrowed, and her expression was very painful.
"But you don't have a choice." Seraphine replied with a smile.
"Tell me, how are you different from them?" Ruil glanced at her mother not far away, her eyes fixed on the girl in front of her.
"It's simple, I can teach you how to choose for yourself." Seraphine spread her hands and smiled, "To put it bluntly, strength!" ”
Ruier frowned slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes: "Dirty means, don't do it." ”
In her eyes, Seraphine, like her mother, wanted to kill people to replenish her magic.
Her parents expected her to be the most powerful group in Noxus since she was a child. In their eyes, this can only be achieved by becoming stronger.
As a child, she worked hard for her parents.
But now, she began to question the value of that effort, especially as her growth came with the sacrifices of others.
"Very good realization." Seraphine nodded slightly, and quickly changed her mind, "But you think I'm going to waste my precious mage on you?" ”
"What do you mean?" Ruil had confusion in her eyes.
"At present, in order to cultivate you, 67 mage seedlings have been killed, and 29 have been abolished."
"96... Is it already so much..."
Ruil let out a heavy breath, and her expression became complicated.
She only knew that she had experienced many battles in the past few years, but she didn't expect so many people to die in vain because of it.
Seeing that the foreshadowing was almost over, Seraphine went straight to the point:
"A thousand-strong mage regiment can set up the battlefield that defeated the Righteous Star Spirit not long ago. And give you the magic of a thousand mages, how long can you stand against him? ”
According to the information Ryan gave her, if you want to train Rael to the level of Kyle, it is not enough to consume mana.
It is better to take countless people to pile up a monster than to devour it for Lady Sindra.
"A thousand? No one can beat the combined forces of a thousand mages. Ruil snorted coldly.
She didn't believe anyone could stand up to a thousand.
“Escútando y do historias.”
Suddenly, a distant and melodious song came from Seraphine, and the pitch gradually climbed higher, soaring upward, breaking through the sky, and in an instant, it took on an epic magnificence.
Under the infection of the magnificent tone, Ruier's eyes suddenly became confused, and the scene in front of him disappeared in an instant, replaced by shocking scenes of divine warfare.
At this moment, she seemed to be in a high-spirited and fierce battlefield, watching the Holy Sword of the Righteous Star Spirit cut through the sky, Sindra's dark orb was endless, and Ryan's water flow sky rose high...
Those majestic scenes that destroyed the world were projected frame by frame in her mind, and Ruil watched quietly with bated breath.
Her heart pounded violently in her chest, and her pupils continued to reflect the brilliant magic of the streamer.
Ruier couldn't help but exclaim, feeling an unprecedented shock in her heart.
"Is this true?" Her eyes widened.
She couldn't believe that the mage's might reach that level, but if it wasn't true, she thought she couldn't even imagine such a magnificent and majestic scene.
"See that floating castle?" Seraphine curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and pointed to the sky above the immortal fortress not far away.
"It's the castle under the crown of the council." Ruil's gaze followed the past, and at the same time, there was a little more awe.
"It can cast a cataclysmic magic, and even if it is controlled by me, it can hang a thousand-man warband in an instant. But on the battlefield, you haven't seen it once. The corners of Seraphine's mouth curled down, and she said with some regret.
Of course, she's just putting on a show for Rill.
In fact, her little mana is enough to aim, and the mana used to release her magic depends entirely on the storage of the Floating Castle.
"Why?" Ruil was puzzled.
She had the impression that the castle sent a curtain of light to fend off the starling's dying counterattack, but it did not seem to have launched an active magical attack.
The castle itself seems to be a giant amplifier that is used to strengthen the magic of the two council leaders.
The corners of Seraphine's mouth turned up, and her face was filled with admiration, shock, or fear:
"Because both sides in the battle can easily hit similar attacks."
"Whatever—" Ruil was silent.
She had only known that the gods had been beheaded by the council president, but only when she had actually seen the battle with her own eyes did she really know what kind of shock it was.
All words seemed too scarce in the face of this divine war, but she saw it completely, and this memory would definitely stay with her for the rest of her life.
"So, you think I'll sacrifice the mage to grow for you, so what do I want from you?" Seraphine asked with a chuckle.
"Who the hell are you!" Ruier's face was solemn.
can clearly know the picture of the gods fighting, how can such a person be ordinary.
"I..."
Seraphine shook her long pink hair and dragged a long note:
"The Speaker is my teacher."
"This..."
Surprise flashed in Ruil's eyes, but she quickly hid her emotions again. After a few seconds of silence, he turned to ask about himself:
"And how do you want to teach me?"
She didn't feel that the other party was telling a lie, this sentence couldn't stand up to questioning, it was too fake and too easy to expose.
"What do you think they got to where they got there?"
Seeing Rill's change of attitude, Seraphine was secretly satisfied.
Sure enough, it's the most interesting thing to convince people with your mouth.
"Talent!" Ruil said without hesitation.
