Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 108 【0105】 Kalya’s past

Kalya's words opened Lux's eyes.

Before this, she had never thought that magic could be used in this form!

Lux's magic theory is undoubtedly extremely solid. Following Kalya's thoughts, Lux instantly imagined countless possibilities!

In Demacia, she understood that magic may not only be used to cause damage. An "ice machine" like Ino had a unique advantage in making cold drinks.

And now, she has discovered that as long as it is applied properly, magic can be used in a wider range of fields!

"Assembly line, industrialization..."

Lux thought of the factories she visited in Piltover and Zaun. Everyone performed their own duties and performed their own part of the process. Naturally, if such efficiency was handled by a single person, it would be much better anyway. Not available!

As long as Kalya's idea is promoted, it will be a completely new possibility, a new world!

"But, Kalya, why didn't you succeed then?"

"Well...it's a long story." When talking about this topic, Kalya's tone finally became a little bitter, "In Shurima, magic is not a disaster, but a kind of power—— Therefore, people with mage talents do not want everyone to be able to use this power, just like in Demacia, nobles will not easily allow civilians to achieve military merit and become nobles."

"But you said that you are an ascended person." Lux frowned, "Many ascended people are your students, they should support you, right?"

"The Ascended One is another reason." When talking about this topic, Kalya's tone became more helpless. "The birth of the Ascended One is related to the gods on Mount Targon. When Shurima was established, in order to gain power, Seta Ka dedicated his faith to the giant gods, performed the ascension ceremony, and became the first ascendant."

"They are those god warriors in the legend of Shurima, right?"

"That's right, those god warriors." Kalya continued, "As long as you go through a ritual, you can gain power comparable to the gods. Ordinary swords will no longer be able to harm you, and ordinary spells will have no effect on you. Time will no longer age you... Doesn’t that sound wonderful?”

"It's very good." Lux blinked, somewhat moved, but after thinking about it, she recalled the saying that Kalya often said that power has a price, and suddenly her heart sank, "So …What’s the cost?”

"The price is that those who gain power will drift further and further away from mortals." Kalya said chilling words in a calm tone, "In the beginning, those who ascended will become proud - pride belongs to those who ascend. It's a common problem, and it's even more common to look down on ordinary people, so I didn't realize the problem at the time."

"..."

"After pride, there is indifference." Kalya continued, "The feelings of ascended people will also be extremely indifferent, and they will only remain fanatical in certain specific aspects. At that time, I just thought that I was too old and different from ordinary people. .”

"..."

"The ultimate form of indifference is the loss of humanity." Kalya seemed a little sad. "When I discovered this, it was already too late. Even though I insisted that Shurima's schools be educated without discrimination, I still stayed away. Ordinary people are gradually losing their patience and empathy."

"..."

"The power of the Ascended does not belong to the Ascended itself. This is something I discovered belatedly." Kalya paused, "After that, I tried to change my strategy, but unfortunately, the resistance was too great. No one is willing to stand by my side. Even the ascended ones can at most study magic theories and cultivate magic plants with me, but they can’t work together to promote magic to the common people.”

"..."

"In addition, the Ascension Order does not want anyone to tarnish the research of Glory - after all, if given a sufficient supply of magic power, mortals can also control the power of gods."

"Then... you started fighting?" Lux asked cautiously, "You never told me about the later stages of the Shurima Empire. Could it be that Shurima was eventually destroyed in a civil war?"

"Later, there was indeed a war that wiped out everything, but it was not a civil war." Kalya sighed, "At that time, the empire occupied Icathia. We hoped to assimilate Icathia and become one of us, but things were not very good. smoothly."

"You told me before that the Shurima Empire is willing to tolerate latecomers? Absorb latecomers and become ascendants?"

"There are already enough people in the Ascension Order, and when they occupied Icathia, Icathia's civilization was already highly independent. Their mage king was unwilling to become an Ascended One, so he gathered manpower to resist, and finally defeated the city. He died for his country, and when Icathia was annexed, there were no Ascended Ones.”

"..."

"Without the Ascended Ones and the differences in civilizations, Icathia and the Shurima Empire have always been in conflict and difficult to reconcile—the two sides are almost like fire and water, just like Zaun and Piltover now."

"..."

"I really hope that Icathia and the Shurima Empire can bridge their differences, but Icathia is a typical magical country, and mages occupy high positions - so my ideas are not welcomed, even if I am helping Icathia People strive for status, but those mages who represent Icasia are still not from the same group as me."

Lux was silent.

"Finally, the war broke out." Kalya talked about that war for the first time. "The descendants of the Icathia Mage King communicated with the dangerous void. When the imperial army went to counter the rebellion, they summoned the void rift, and the rift tore The earth was torn apart, and the unrivaled Ascended Ones were quickly distorted in the face of the power of the void. In order to cover the retreat of the Ascending Legion Legion, Setaka fought with all his strength, but in the end he was hated on the spot."

Lux's eyes widened in shock - she had heard countless stories about Setaka, but she never imagined that Setaka would end like this.

"It seems that I have never told you about the void... In short, it is a terrifying existence that you cannot yet come into contact with, and it is best not to come into contact with it. It is another world, a world that is eager to be devoured. In order to be able to close that void Rift, Nezuk and Aori—do you remember them?"

Lux nodded heavily.

"Azhi built a very large fortress, and Nezuk suspended it in the air forever. We fought to the death and finally sealed the rift, but as a price, many ascended people were completely annihilated. In the void, there are many people who are infected and corrupted by the power of the void just like me, and these are... dark descendants."

"..."

"Then there was a long sleep, and then, now." Speaking of this, Kalya's tone was unexpectedly relieved, "Actually, I have wanted to tell you this for a long time, but I never had the chance - okay La, shut your mouth and keep your manners, you have a very heavy burden on your shoulders now!"

Kalya’s Little Class·Changed Destiny:

Kalya hoped to solve many of Shurima's conflicts, but his "one week" was not very successful, so that he failed.

As for the details of the week, it will be mentioned later that Kalya did a lot, but ultimately failed in order to protect Shurima.
