The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 32: Devil's Whispering, Horrifying Talent

Go forward a few minutes.

In the elegant living room, Amorin, who had just finished cleaning the room, sat on an armchair with a bulging belly and a slightly tired look.

As the armchair shook, her upper and lower eyelids began to fight, as if they were about to close together.

Wow! Wow!

In a daze, Amorin heard the crackling sound of flames in the fireplace, and the orange flames danced, burning her face.

She stared at the flickering firelight again, lowered her head, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

"Um?"

In her sleep, Amorin seemed to notice something strange in front of her eyes and opened her eyes to look.

At some point, the fireplace in the living room also entered the dream.

The burning orange-yellow flames danced, seeming to form some kind of shape, outlining a certain outline, but then immediately collapsed and disappeared.

Amorin frowned, the same scene happened again and again.

Same contours, same collapse.

Amorin realized something was wrong, looked at the upper half of the flame, and found two black holes suddenly appeared in the middle of the blazing flames.

The two holes were as dark as the dead night, and no matter how hot and intense the surrounding flames were, they remained there.

She moved closer.

No, not a hole, she realized.

This is a pair of eyes!

Then countless chaotic memories flooded into her dreamland like a tide, and she remembered.

[Amorin! ]

Amorin, who was in panic, froze completely when she heard her name.

Beside her, the fire in the fireplace flickered upward, but the eyes stared at her motionless.

She looked at him, feeling uncomfortable all over.

"Is it going to start again?"

Amorin looked at the horrific scene buried deep in her soul with a horrified look, like a curse that always haunted her.

In the deep darkness, a tall and majestic stone palace slowly appeared.

At the entrance, there was an armored giant fighting. He defeated the desperate mortal warriors with a heavy and brutal war hammer. There were two ferocious monsters beside him - one was a shadow and the other was a flame.

The blazing flames flickered in front of Amorin, and she couldn't stop it, let alone stop it.

The scene continued to change, and a pale woman appeared, smiling as she looked down at the metal giant lying in pieces at her feet.

The two monsters he had tamed were also defeated and driven back.

A group of robed figures surrounded them, chanting some incantation in a language she didn't understand.

The two monsters were already hysterical, but they watched helplessly as their power was drained away, and finally withered and dissipated, leaving only two droplets, like two drops of rain.

Amorin struggled consciously and wanted to retract her gaze, but the scene in front of her seemed to have invisible magic power, forcing her to look at the angry droplet, which was put into a vial and the cap was sealed.

Day after day, year after year.

It is isolated from the world, no one cares about it, and gradually shrivels in loneliness and despair.

Its soul weakens, its light fades, its roar turns to lamentation.

Amorin, who was originally extremely vigilant, suddenly felt compassion. She seemed to want to reach out, touch the anger, and hold it in her arms.

Suddenly!

The shrinking anger suddenly swelled as if it smelled some delicious food.

In the deep and strange darkness, a huge body like a mountain emerged, with countless thick and flaming arms piercing through the fireplace and waving towards the sky.

It passed Amorin, roared excitedly toward the front, and strode outside the stone palace.

Sonorous!

Then Amorin heard the familiar sound of a blade being unsheathed.

Then there were screams, red-gold fireworks, and a red star hanging in the sky, filling the field of vision.

"Ignorant mortals wait for stars and spirits!"

In an instant.

When Amorin saw what should have been a fiery and raging anger, it seemed as if she had seen something terrible. Like a tide, she fled back to the depths of the palace, hiding and not daring to show herself.

Wait until Amorin regains consciousness.

She found that she had left the nightmare and was lying in Gregory's warm arms.

"Are you okay?" Gregory reached out and caressed his cold face, asking with concern.

"It's okay without me!" Amorin looked pale and shook her head slightly, her tired eyes shining brightly.

She pushed away Gregory's arm and hurriedly looked at her surroundings. She saw the broken fireplace and Huo Jixing standing with a knife, muttering to himself.

"Star Spirit!"

"What star spirit? Have you dreamed of those things again?"

Gregory frowned slightly and looked at Amorin with some concern.

He had seen Amorin encounter similar nightmares many times, but he would stop and wake her up every time. It seemed that this time there was something unimaginable happening in the nightmare.

"I said, Huo Jixing's flame power is related to the star spirit!" Amorin said word by word.

Then, with the help of Gregory's arm strength, she half stood up and leaned into his arms. Her pale face was full of complex colors from unknown time.

There is shock, fear, horror, and joy

Immediately afterwards, Amorin looked at Huo Jixing and recounted the nightmare scene in front of Gregory.

But as if she was afraid of something, she hid the scene where the pale woman appeared, and only talked about the liquid droplet's anger being sealed and seducing her.

"Fortunately, Huo Jixing took action at the last critical moment, activating the power of the stars and frightening the guy in the dream. He probably won't dare to show up in the near future."

Faced with the complicated looks from Gregory and Amorin, Huo Jixing looked helpless, and for a moment, he didn't know how to speak.

Unexpected disaster!

He was just helping, but he didn't expect to be taken as prey by the secret existence and dragged into the dreamland.

In the end, the guy fled in panic, leaving him alone.

The key is that there are other people in the dream!

"I, the star spirit?" Huo Jixing asked in confusion,

Then he immediately reacted, didn't the seven stars of Suzaku correspond to the stars in the sky?

Then everything became logical.

Because of Jingxu, Amorin misunderstood that his power was related to the star spirit, but he had no way to explain it.

After all, the Nanli Fire did come from the seven stars of Suzaku!

The atmosphere was a little silent.

Huo Jixing could feel the mood changes of Gregory and his wife. Who would have thought that an accident would involve the star spirit?

And he was involved in it, allowing Amorin to glimpse the star of Jingxu!

But soon, Gregory sorted out his mood.

Sometimes, when the talent is terrifying to a certain extent, it brings not fear but awe.

He first helped Amorin back to the bedroom and lay down to rest.

Then he took the tea from the restaurant, sorted out his emotions, and came to Huo Jixing's room.

"It's hard to imagine that your fire power is actually related to the Star Spirit!" Gregory poured tea and sat opposite Huo Jixing, his face full of envy and respect.

Star Spirit, a legendary existence.

It is a powerful creature comparable to gods, leaving many strange stories and legends on the Valoran continent.

Compared with the Star Spirit, his school is just a grain of rice.

And now, a transcendent with the power of the Star Spirit really appeared in front of him.

"It's true. God bless the Empire. At this difficult moment, there are people with talents like you who belong to the Empire."

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly, heard the meaning of Gregory's words, and asked aloud.

"Is the situation facing the empire very bad now?"

"Not only bad, it is about to fall into an irreversible situation." Gregory drank the tea in the cup and spoke bitterly.

Who would have thought that the once famous Noxus Empire is now struggling and scarred by war?

"On the eastern front, the failure of the Ionian War caused the empire to lose a lot of elite forces. It has begun to switch from offense to defense and is even preparing to evacuate the Ionian Islands."

"On the western front, the deterioration of the Demacia battlefield has dragged many war groups there and cannot leave."

"One hair moves the whole body. Without the deterrence of the empire's power, the situation in Shurima is uncertain, undercurrents are surging, and rebel forces have appeared in many ports."

"Now, only the northern front has not really decided the outcome."

"The empire has fallen into the current situation, not only because of the external war!" Gregory's eyes flickered: "The empire is also full of shadows, independence, division, and many forces frequently appear on the stage."

Huo Jixing listened carefully to Gregory's words.

This was a field he had never touched before, and it involved the confrontation between the upper echelons of the empire.

If it weren't for his talent, perhaps Gregory wouldn't have mentioned it.

Most importantly, he also heard a piece of news that he was extremely concerned about.

The failure of the Ionian War!

With the memories of his previous life, he knew very well the importance of the Ionian War to the Noxus Empire.

Its failure would bring unimaginable changes to the empire.

"So, now the situation of the Noxus Empire is irreversible, just waiting for Swain."

Huo Jixing's thoughts were active, and compared with some information in his previous life memories, he had a strange feeling of intervening in history.

As for Gregory's subsequent words, he understood very well the bitter psychology of a person who had difficulty in realizing his ambitions.

"Although the empire is in misery, we still haven't given up and have made silent efforts for the empire."

Gregory pointed to the villagers outside the window who were yellow and thin, walking slowly in the wind and snow.

They were hired by Gregory to deal with the living room on the first floor that was damaged by the battle when the wind and snow gradually subsided.

Huo Jixing looked calm, and he acknowledged Gregory's extraordinary ability in his heart.

Compared with the insatiable and resource-scarce Noxus Empire in his memory, the villagers in the village in front of him had enough clothes to cover their bodies and lived in a stable place.

Although the food was a little insufficient, at least they would not starve to death, and the overall living standard was obviously higher than other villages in the empire.

"Everything for Noxus!" Huo Jixing spoke.

Gregory looked at the very young Huo Jixing with a strange look, and chuckled and said: "For Noxus?"

"You should say, for Darkwill!"

Note: During the Darkwill period, the military salute slogan of Noxus soldiers was "For Darkwill", and the slogan during Swain's leadership was "For Noxus".
