Chapter 68: A New Goal and a Deal with the Lady of the Archon
"At my age, I'm used to seeing the distortion of human nature and enough darkness, and I've experienced too much intrigue and intrigues, these things, it's disgusting..."
Annones watched Aslan's soft whispers, and the enthusiasm in her almost melted people.
Originally, she wanted to say something, but she thought about it for a while and then covered her mouth and smiled: "My little Aslan, what did Madame Lestana usually teach you?!" ”
"Madame taught me how to be a good nobleman, my Madame, and how to express one's opinion in any situation, after all, so as to make a great impression...... It is helpful to negotiate cooperation with others. ”
Aslan stared at Anonis's well-maintained face, his gaze making the surprised lady blush a little more.
"My dear little Aslan, I have been amazed by your ability to learn, and I think that your graduation with Madame Lestana must be excellent."
"Yes; Madame, I have always been very good. ”
Aslan's words made Annones lose her mind slightly, and then her eyes narrowed as if she had discovered some little secret.
The word "always" is very illustrative in terms of parts of speech, word forms, and word meanings.
She guessed that Madame Lestana's relationship with Aslan was not simple, but she did not expect it to be so simple.
"She's so sweet to you!" Anonis exhaled like a blue as she spoke, as if with a little envy, and couldn't help but give Aslan a fiery hug: "But I also want to tell you a little more trick, my little Aslan!"
Annones put her palm in front of Aslan's lips, "You have to be careful about what you say and do, just as a good politician always lives longer, you can only defeat more if you survive... Enemy. ”
"This is what I'm going to teach you." Annones sighed again, "The rules of the nobleman's game are so shameless and fickle. ”
A blush appeared on her delicate face as she spoke, and an expression of joy that she had never felt before, "Do you understand, my little Aslan?" ”
Annones's expression was full of satisfaction, after all, because of the mission, and in order not to let too many people discover Darkwell's abnormality, she has been living alone, and the appearance of Aslan has made her long-term unvented emotions suddenly find a break to break out, alleviating the loneliness of the emptiness in her heart.
"Thank you for your teachings; Dear Madam. Aslan stroked Anonise's cheek lightly with one hand, soothing her emotions, and the lady's cheek was smooth to the touch, like cream, and he whispered, "Your little Aslan will always be remembered." ”
Although there were some riddlers in the Black Rose Machine assembly, from LeBlanc down to the various sacrifices, Aslan knew what Annones meant.
His journey to becoming a prince will not be so smooth, or there may be danger in the duel, he can only go further if he survives first, and there are many enemies in the future in Noxus.
Of course, this does not rule out that Anonis is giving eye medicine to other Black Rose Sacrifices, but at the same time, she is also telling herself that there are other Black Rose Sacrifices, and they may also use some way to win him over.
"Yes, my little Aslan, you ought to take it to heart." Annones turned her head slightly to look at Aslan, and only spoke after a moment: "In Noxus, the most fatal weakness of a nobleman, do you know what it is?" ”
Aslan shook his head.
"It's about putting too much emphasis on affection." A hint of fierceness appeared between Annonis's eyebrows: "It's understandable for ordinary people to talk about friendship in Noxus, but you are different, especially after becoming a prince, your weakness must be hidden." ”
The elegant lady spoke slowly, and her tone was like the murmuring of flowing water, and the chirping of birds was gentle and graceful.
Aslan listened quietly, although he didn't have much impression of Anonis, but she appeared in the conference room today, quite a sense of self-relief, although this could also be part of the Black Rose Project.
Moreover, among the many sacrifices of the Black Rose, Aslan felt that Anonis might have authority over the other members of the sacrifice, and he felt that he should maintain a sense of awe for such an existence.
People who know how to be polite are generally not too bad in luck.
Holding a pet and being spoiled also depends on who the object is.
...
The conversation ended quickly, and Annones was in such a pleasant mood that she suppressed her sanity and hummed softly, and Aslan, a mild-mannered-looking boy, looked very cultured, not at all like a rough Noxian, and gave her very good senses.
"It's still a very sweet boy, I envy Lestana a little."
She laughed at herself inwardly, then stood up and looked at herself in the mirror.
In this way, or in her state, Aslan, who was standing on the side, felt that this Lady Anonis already had a sense of trust in herself, or was she expressing her sincerity?
Although Anonis was tidying up her makeup, her attention was fixed on Aslan's body, and there was a little more strange emotion in her heart.
This little guy who had just been rude to her, was unmoved by his eyes at this time, and when he turned to look at her, he was still calmly looking at him?
Does this mean that Lestana was successful in his education, or that the child had learned the essence of being a nobleman?
However, Annonis's expression quickly returned to normal, she sorted out her emotions, her face returned to an elegant demeanor, and she easily pulled out a piece of information from the closet, and handed it to Aslan.
"Now that we've gotten to know each other, I'm going to talk to you about me. The Glory Fight before the King is just three months away, and you have three months to prepare, but you don't have to worry, it's all in our plans.
With that, Annones sat down gracefully on the bench, "I'm going to talk to you about something else. ”
“???”
Aslan was a little curious, and he flipped through the information handed over by Lady Anonis, and saw a familiar portrait on the scroll.
Rivien?
Aslan thought he had misunderstood, and flipped through the information again, it was indeed Riven, and then he looked at Anonis?
Annonis smiled calmly, she finally saw a look of surprise in Aslan that should belong to his age, and her mind quickly returned to a cold state: "It seems, you know who she is?" ”
"Yes, ma'am, I know, I've gathered information about her before."
"Oh, yes, little Aslan, you gave me another surprise, do you know why you chose her?"
Anonise asked, looking at Aslan.
"I don't know." Aslan really didn't know why the lady Anonis in front of him was looking for Raven, and he answered truthfully.
In terms of timeline, after the failure of Noxus' invasion of Ionia, Riven's team was lost to Sinjid's alchemy bomb, and she exiled herself, planting fields there for a while, and returned to Noxus after being found because of the rune sword.
But what happened after that, Aslan didn't know very well.
"Do you know that runic sword of hers? The runes on it were the product of the lady, but the runes on this sword had changed a little, and something strange had happened to her. ”
Aslan couldn't figure out what the inevitable connection was between Riven and his own gladiatorial battle for glory.
If you want to test your qualifications, there are many people you can choose from in Noxus, why Rui Wen?
Do I have to complete any side quests before I push the main line?
He was a little confused.
