Chapter 391: Laxis's Complaint
The dusk in the inner city of Idgradhi is unbelievably beautiful.
The sapphire-like sea is covered with golden-red spots, rising and falling in the quiet evening breeze.
The sunset is like a random sketch of a paintbrush, but it adds a delicate seven-color rainbow light to the color. The tower's coherent arcs are dyed gold-encrusted rose red, and the afterglow of the setting sun blooms dreamily and hazy flowers in the refraction of the points of light.
Ivan looked at the transparent refining crystal window in front of him, feeling as if he hadn't woken up from a dream yet.
Laxis told him to stay here......
The rest of the matter seemed to involve a lot of things that he didn't know and shouldn't know, and with the consent of the World Tree, Laxis took him and Carlo out of the Passaette Magic Tower, but Laxis told him not to return for the time being.
"This is where I usually live. "Luxis," wait for me, I'll be back when I'm done." β
Laxis's residence was surprisingly ordinary, resembling the room of a Francotian lady who liked the dΓ©cor in a light style. The four-poster bed, with its pale yellow curtains, has a delicately carved floor lamp, a small white-lacquered vanity cabinet with a silver-blue square box, and a wallpaper with a light purple lantern pattern on the surrounding walls. Ivan sat honestly on a supported sofa chair by the balcony window, not knowing how long he would have to wait.
In fact, he is not familiar with Laxis at all, but he has only met a few times and heard some rumors about her. After leaving the conference hall, Laxis's expression did not have a trace of gentleness, emotion, or enthusiasm, but it was like a world tree, calm and indifferent. In the chamber, Laxis tried so hard to protect him that she didn't want to talk to him anymore. Maybe he shouldn't have come, Ivan thought, and even if he didn't, Laxis would be able to get out of the way, right?
As for the ravens -
A thought of crows. Ivan felt a piece of ice slip into his stomach, and he wanted to ask how the crow was doing, but in that case, what reason did he have to care about an illegal sorcerer he had captured?
The sound of the door opening was soft and the room was quiet. Laxis leaned her back against the doorknob and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sit still. Laxis coldly ordered. Walk briskly to the balcony. She glanced outside, leaned against the transparent refining crystal, and after a few seconds, she turned around.
"Tell me what the hell happened, those people on the island have already evacuated to the Aurora Mountains, right?"
"Uh...... Yes, Mistress Flotica. Ivan unconsciously used a more polite salutation. He didn't know if Laxis was angry at what he had done. I don't know what the consequences of his actions will be in the end.
"That's right. Laxis looked down at the white velvet carpet beneath her feet, "Then there will be no problem." Have you told SΓΉ Carlo Plante the truth?"
"I didn't talk to him about the Ghost Islands, he would have like-" Ivan swallowed the half-sentence "save you," and asked about you, he, you were his savior. β
Laxis twisted her head to the side. It's like looking at the scenery.
"It's going to be a little difficult to do next, and my ban won't be lifted for a while, but at least I've cleared my suspicion of 'colluding with the demons'. You've seen it all, that's what the Core Council looks like. β
There was a palpable, undisguised disgust in Laxis's tone.
"Bolenfuz has been clamoring for reform all day long, and so are Helo, if it weren't for the existence of the World Tree's contract, there would have been a fight in the Pavilion of Order. But. It's impossible for us not to engage in verbal attacks against each other, and I really don't know how long this fight will last. β
Ivan was a little dazed and a little frightened. He realized that Laxis was complaining about the other adults of the Core Council, but was it really good to complain like that in front of an outsider?
Even those people have a lot of grievances about the current parliamentary system. The management of the world tree is also. See, sooner or later, they'll find a chance to cure me, and Lord Esmedra won't be able to help you in the slightest, Katerina...... I've been the one who has been bothering her. β
Luxus frowned tightly. It seems to be very annoyed and upset.
"You're here to make things even more troublesome. Laxis smiled wryly, "Well, it's safe to talk here." Was Sloth's core really found at the bottom of the sea?"
"I ......"
Despite Laxis's order to sit still, he stood up curtly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make things more troublesome......
"No, you're not wrong, it's my problem. Laxis interrupted him just in time, "I don't have faith in myself, Ivan, you may not understand, I feel like I can't hold on anymore, and if I'm done, you'll suffer too." This time I was mentally prepared that even if there was no evidence, they would find a way to create false testimony, and I had nothing to do about their bad deeds, and I really hoped that someone could help me. β
β......β
Ivan's face was stunned, and he noticed that Laxis was calling him by his name again. Laxis doesn't seem to be so indifferent to him, is it because he's in a bad mood?
"I don't know why Attelhernos would help me, he told me to live in his courtyard, I thought he was spying on me, I always thought he was supporting Borenfuz. Laxis leaned wearily against the window, "Yatel Hernos, I can't see through him anyway, it's a headache." β
She poked her fingers at the corners of her forehead, her eyes closed.
"Did Blair find you?" she said, reopening her eyes.
"Hmm...... Well. Master Blair wants me to ...... I didn't agree to something that was bad for you. Ivan replied quickly as he looked at Laxis in a daze.
"I don't even know what to do with you. Laxis smiled bitterly, with a little helplessness in her smile, but also a faint hint of relief, "Okay, no matter what, you helped me this time, and let me help you once." β
Ivan thinks that Laxis has already saved him twice, counting the time in Easte City in the Kingdom of Fatland, Laxis solved the water witch Pendrera, it should be three times, and it is difficult to repay the saving grace of three times. But before he could figure out how to speak, Laxis had a pure crystal ball in her heart.
"Your magic hasn't fully recovered yet, has you?" Laxis straightened up and put her arm around Ivan's shoulder, "Sit down, I'll help you recover." β
