Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 18 【0017】 Arts Support Association

In order to maintain her personality, Lux finally had no choice but to use her pocket money to establish an "Art Support Association" for these frustrated artists.

The purpose of the "Art Support Association" is to support artists who are good in their own right but are not appreciated by others. In order to hide her identity as a magician, Lux worked hard. Under the guidance of Kalya, she worked hard to He plays the role of an enlightened aristocrat who loves and supports art.

Moreover, he is more fanatical than the nobles who really love art.

For an enlightened nobleman who loves art, it is natural to spend some money for art...

Regarding the association established by Lux, Ogesha not only did not object after receiving the news, but took the initiative to fund a sum of money. In her opinion, the establishment of this association can be regarded as a stroke of genius!

Ogesha may not know much about art, but she knows a lot about politics.

In her opinion, through this association, Lux can win over many unsuccessful artists, and out of trust in her daughter's level and judgment, she believes that there will be many truly great artists within this association.

Unlike those art brokers who are just trying to catch the attention of the nobles, big artists with real talents have a huge influence on Demacia, and Lux, as their sponsor, can naturally share this influence.

Well, she is indeed my daughter. She has indeed inherited my mother's political wisdom, and she is much higher than her stubborn father.

In this way, at dinner that day, Ogesha praised Lux ​​and formally proposed that she could also support some funds for the operation of the association.

Then, she began to teach Lux in detail how to run an association, using the situation she encountered when she formed the Madam's Tea Party as an example.

Lux, on the other hand, was completely stunned.

Why should I learn this stuff?

Wait, I just want to create a persona of an art lover. I don’t think about expanding my influence through art!

But looking at her proud and gratified mother, Lux couldn't deny it anyway. In the end, she could only nod slightly awkwardly, and then said that she "learned it, learned it."

After dinner, with the excuse of needing to "digest this knowledge," Lux came to the garden alone.

"Kalya, what's going on?" Lux stood next to the pond with her hand on the hilt of her sword, "Mother... Association... what on earth is going on?"

"She thinks you are very good at handling these things, and sees the association you formed as a place to expand the influence of the Crown Guard family and conduct noble communication." Kalya replied matter-of-factly, "Isn't this an obvious thing? She It's a pleasure having you running these, always."

"That's not what I asked." Lux snorted coldly, "Don't pretend to be stupid with me, my dear teacher, everything at the banquet was directed by you!"

"Ah, that's to maintain your image as an art lover to the greatest extent!" Kalya said very innocently, "I can only barely cope with those people who are full of artistic enthusiasm..."

"Don't get confused with me here!" Lux raised her tone, "Don't you know the impact of this association? You already know what this means from the beginning!"

"Ah, I'm so touched!" Unfortunately, Kalya still looked extremely exaggerated, "My dear student, the teacher's image in your mind has finally grown taller. It seems that in your opinion, I should treat all All political tricks are clear-"

"It's not what I think, it's the fact." Lux interrupted Karya's aria-like performance, and then sighed helplessly, "Why are you doing this, dragging me completely into the whirlpool?"

"Whirlpool? This is clearly the pinnacle." Kalya wrote lightly, "The pinnacle of Demacia's power!"

"But I don't want this!" Lux gestured to take off her sword, "You know very well that I never want to stay in the capital of Demacia and follow the etiquette framework with those masked nobles. Play boring political games!”

"Then what do you like?" Kalya asked, "Tell me, Lux, since you don't like politics, what do you like?"

"I hope to take risks, like stories, like to travel, and like to see the wider world!" Lux raised her head and looked at the bright starry sky, "I like everything that is new!"

"Yes, everything that is brand new is the desire of young people." Karya's tone finally became more emotional, "But it is a pity that in addition to your inner desire, you also need to take on the responsibility for your family. , the country and Runeterra.”

"I do not refuse this responsibility." Lux simply sat by the pond, "I hope that I am a good daughter of the Crown Guard family, able to make my parents happy, and able to supervise my silly brother; I hope that I am a good daughter of the Crown Guard family. Good warrior of Marcia, if my motherland needs me, I can also put on armor..."

"However, a good daughter of the Crownguard family wants to become a political creature." Kalya interrupted Lux's reverie without mercy, "And the good warriors of Demacia are not in your turn at the moment. If you really want to Considering our own country, the most important thing to do is to promote the normalization of magic."

"..."

Kalya's words silenced Lux.

This is also where her current conflict lies.

Kalya was absolutely right.

Lux's own dreams seem to be incompatible with the expectations and needs of her family and country.

Lux longs to be a free and happy traveler.

But the Crownguard family needs a new generation of capable and mature mistress; Demacia also needs a savior to solve the rune stone problem.

"Are the choices in life always so difficult?" After a long silence, Lux finally spoke again, "Or is it just a child with innocent wishes?"

"I really want to comfort you and say that it will be fine when you grow up." Kalya responded in a low voice, "Unfortunately, the fact is... it is always like this."

"That's really terrible." Lux stood up, "But when I heard this answer, I don't know why, but I was relieved."

"Of course you should breathe a sigh of relief." Kalya chuckled, "Because that means that even in the future, you will not become the political creatures you hate now."

"That's very well said, Teacher Kalya." Lux raised her head again, "Now, tell me your next plan. I believe that you must have prepared a long and complete plan for me. This The kind that I’m happy to accept every step of the way.”

"Don't talk about me like a big villain, Lux." Kalya said as if she was aggrieved, "But I do have a plan..."

……………………

Half a month later, the "Art Support Association" funded by the Crown Guard family was finally officially launched.

Many artists who were living in poverty and frustrated came to tell each other, and for a while, the temporary office was packed with people.

However, Lux, who was the sponsor, did not show up. She handed over most of the operational work to specially selected professionals. She still stayed in her carving room, using a chisel on the smooth and stable forbidden magic stone. Carving magic circuits.

This sculpture is one year.

A year later, when the Art Support Association successfully organized an art exhibition for the first time, a special statue in the exhibition caught the attention of almost all visitors.

It was a miniature city. It could be seen from the iconic city walls and the tall Dawn Fortress that this miniature city was the capital of Demacia.

The sculptor's technique is clever and precise, minimizing a huge city into a statue that is less than three feet long and wide, but many details are still eye-catching - whether it is people enjoying the cool on the roof in a civilian area or chasing people in the streets. The children of merchants are all lifelike and lifelike.

Objectively speaking, this statue does not have much artistic thinking and expression, but its unique authenticity allows even people who do not understand any art theory to feel the author's love for this city.

Of course, it is not only the quality of the sculpture itself that attracts everyone's attention - more importantly, on the sculpture's display board, in the author's column, it clearly says Laxana Crownguard \u0026 Sona· Bouvier!

These two peerless beauties unknowingly gave the nobles of Demacia another big job!

Suddenly, Lux and Sona, who had been far away from the center of the topic, finally became a hot topic among the nobles again.

Moreover, considering that they are about to turn twelve, many families have already begun to make some serious ideas.

Most of the time, noble ladies from other families are just marriage tools.

But these two...that's different!

They are talents themselves!

Although Demacia's laws do not allow you to do anything to twelve-year-old girls, this does not prevent some peers from "making friends" with them, right?

So, Lux was shocked to find that around her, more and more lively middle school boys appeared around her.

These young men aged fourteen or fifteen were either polite or full of energy, and all of them looked like they wanted to have a good relationship with her.

If it were a normal twelve-year-old girl, even if she would not have some charming little thoughts in adolescence, she would at least be proud of her own charm - but it is a pity that as a sober and calm mage, Lux sees this When I was the same age, most of the time I felt like I was watching a group of monkeys.

Well, saying this may be a little rude to these young people, but there is no way. Under the influence of the teacher, Lux looks as dazzling as the sun, but she has nothing to do with innocence.

At the beginning, it was just Kalya complaining about these young people.

Later, Lux also joined in the complaints.

For those who are just admirers or dissatisfied, Lux's attitude is fine - but for those who have filthy thoughts or are simply acting out, Lux can see their true colors almost at a glance!

Performance?

Haha, Lacus doesn’t believe it. There is no one else in the world who is better at acting than herself. In the past three years, I have always been talking to Kalya while handling all social interactions flawlessly. Why are you scumbags talking to me? Fighting for acting skills?
