Lux's Magic Penetration Rod
Chapter 38 【0037】 Walls have ears
Back in the capital of Demacia, Lux's life seems to be back on track again.
After spending a quiet and low-key New Year, Crownguard Manor became lively again - not long after Lux returned, Tiana also ended her war preparations in the north and returned to the capital of Demacia.
Participate in noble activities, practice art with Sona, exercise on time every day, and prepare for the simulated training of the forbidden magic stone circuit...
And in addition to these daily routines, she also added an extra activity.
Visit the Forbidden Prison.
To be precise, go chat with Ino.
For ordinary people, the Forbidden Demon Prison is a forbidden area that is absolutely not allowed or impossible to enter.
But for Lux, entering the Forbidden Demon Prison is not much different from returning home. As a young princess of the Crown Guard family, her biological uncle is still the boss of the demon hunters. Lux wants to enter the Forbidden Demon Prison. , no one would be stupid enough to stand up and stop it.
Other than changing into the blue robe of a demon seeker, Lux didn't need any preparation.
The Demon Searchers guarding the Forbidden Demon Prison are very strict with their mouths. No matter how curious they are, every time Lux arrives, they just silently open the door to the prison and then guard outside silently.
As long as Lux is safe, nothing else matters at all.
……………………
According to Demacia's laws, Ino was considered a person who was "coerced to cause destruction", and considering that Ino was still underage when everything happened, the Demon Searcher Court ultimately sentenced her to ten years in prison.
In other words, Ino will serve ten years in the Forbidden Demon Prison. After his release, he will be escorted by the Demon Searchers and exiled outside the borders of Demacia.
However, since the Forbidden Demon Prison is almost entirely built with Forbidden Demon Stone, the mages here are absorbing magic power all the time, and most of them cannot survive more than ten years.
And those who can survive ten years... even according to Kalya's standards, are "somewhat talented".
Because being able to survive ten years means not only abundant magic power, but also good control over magic. The combination of the two is a necessary condition for becoming a strong mage.
It is precisely because of the amazing suppressive power of the Forbidden Demon Prison on mages that Lux often comes to see Ino - in her opinion, this can help her survive this difficult time.
Speaking of which, the little girl Ino is a very smart person. When she was a maid in Cordola's house, she had already learned simple reading and writing, so Lux simply continued to teach her writing while bringing some books to her. She looked.
Although Lux can't rescue her now, it can at least prevent her mind from being imprisoned in the prison.
Ino completely regards Lux as the light of her life - she will tell all her gains from reading, cherish every time Lux comes, and even every time Lux holds her hand through the railing , all trembling with excitement.
And all of this was seen by a pair of eyes in the cage next door.
……………………
On this day, Ino had just finished reading an epic poem in the dim sunlight. As soon as she put the book down, a deep voice came from the cage next to her.
"That book...can you lend it to me to read?"
Ino was startled.
Although she had known for a long time that there was someone in the cage next door, that person was different from Ino, whom Lux had taken special care of. He had been wearing a heavy magic stone chain from the beginning. As long as he made the slightest move, he would make a loud noise. A crashing sound.
As for him, he looked depressed all day long. Even if the guards brought him food, he would just chew it silently and put everything away quietly after eating, without saying a word.
At the beginning, Ino tried to chat with him - this was a place where "juvenile criminals" were imprisoned. Although the other person did not look like a minor, Ino felt that they should have something in common.
Moreover, Ino was really bored when Lux didn't come. It was always a good thing for everyone to chat at this time.
But unfortunately, the other person seemed to be mute - or maybe he didn't want to speak at all. No matter what Ino said, he looked like a walking zombie without any reaction.
Unexpectedly, this time, he actually took the initiative to speak!
Ino raised his head in surprise and looked at him.
And almost when Ino looked up, the other party also came to the edge of the cage, looking at Ino longingly.
"Please, little girl." He said slightly vaguely in Demacian with an eastern dialect, "Let me read it..."
Ino blinked.
To her, the people imprisoned in the Demonic Prison were all suffering from the same problem, so she was very willing to help.
But...this book belongs to Lux after all.
And Lux's behavior of bringing the books into the Demonic Prison was considered a violation if you had to say it.
Ino didn't want to cause trouble for Lux - so, after a moment of hesitation, she sat on the edge of her cage.
"I'm sorry, sir..." Ino subconsciously imitated Lux and maintained her etiquette, "This book belongs to Miss Lux - if I lend it to you, I need her approval."
"..."
"But we can chat now." As if she felt that such a refusal was a bit heartless, she blinked and added: "Don't worry, she will come again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Miss Lux is very kind and will definitely agree. of."
The other party seemed very satisfied with this answer. He took a long breath, and then tried hard to express his gratitude: "Thank you so much - I have been here for ten years, and the emptiness and pain are almost over. It drives me crazy!”
"It's been ten years?" Ino blinked in surprise, "In other words, you should be leaving soon - this is a detention center for minors, and most minors who are infected with demons will not be sentenced to prison terms. More than ten years!”
"It's a pity that I'm in prison for life." The other party shrugged, and the magic stone chain on his wrist clattered, "I'm afraid I have to spend many more decades in this dark place. "
"Life imprisonment!" Ino was stunned, "Oh my God, what have you done!"
"My name is Silas." The other party sighed and put on a helpless look, "Maybe you have heard of my name before - the magic burst killed three people. Although this was not my intention, but still It bought me a life sentence."
Ino was silent.
The name Silas...she had actually heard of it.
It's just that I heard it from the mouths of bards.
And how unreliable the bards of Mithril City are...just look at the story of Lux they sing.
In the story they told, Silas was supposed to be an evil and powerful guy. He killed three people at once, including elite demon seekers, and then colluded with the hateful Noxians. Almost fled abroad.
Although mage murders were rare in Demacia, there were always a few cases a year.
But the mage killed the demon seeker, which was so rare.
For Demacia, the Silas case is undoubtedly the most sensational and shocking case in the past decade.
At this moment, Ino wanted to step back and stay away from this person.
Even though he was also a mage, in her opinion, the guy in front of her was still a little too dangerous.
Compared with this kind of murderer, Ino suddenly felt that a person like him who had frozen a piece of farmland was completely worthless!
"Don't be so nervous." Silas seemed to be aware of Ino's emotions, and shook his head gently, "I said, that was not my intention - magic is not easy to control, and everything will be ruined if it causes this kind of tragedy. It was an accident!”
"..."
Ino said nothing - but from her eyes, Silas saw full of distrust.
"Okay, okay, stay away from me." Silas waved his hand simply, "If you can, can you listen to my story? Just think of it as a kind act of charity. I really haven't been with anyone in a long time. I’ve spoken.”
And Ino was not polite. She stood up and walked back several steps until she was leaning on the edge of her cage, then she nodded.
"Well, begin your story—Mr. Silas."
