The road to the capital of Demacia. How should he describe it?
Although it was interesting at first, it would get boring after looking at it for a while because the colors here were too monotonous.
Pure white buildings were everywhere with blue flags. The closer one got to the capital of Demacia, the wealthier one got. The colors became more monotonous as the village became richer. However, the shabby dolls that could be seen at the distant borders were no longer common here. Even peasant girls would often sew small clothes for their dolls.
However, this wasn't seen in Freldrod because even the slightest bit of cloth would be treated as an important material for patching clothes. The dolls of Freldrod girls were usually made of straw.
This was also why an intact cloak embroidered with golden thread became the most precious gift of Freldrod. It could even be called the proof of leadership.
"But …"
Li Ke stopped his horse and gazed at the wilderness in front of him. Then, he turned to Morgana.
"Didn't you say this was a town?"
Morgana seemed a little embarrassed. She pretended not to care and combed her excessively long bangs. She looked at the ruins of the town and the statue of the 'Great Hero of Demacia' with only one arm.
"At least it was five hundred years ago."
After she finished speaking, the hammer holding the statue of the Great Hero of Demacia fell to the ground. Then, when Morgana and Li Ke looked at each other awkwardly, the entire statue was covered in cracks and shattered into pieces. Only the stone statue that was almost identical to the hammer in Bobby's hand was preserved. The rest of the statue had turned into pieces of rubble. The vines that wrapped around the statue and parasitized the cracks of the statue also suffered heavy casualties.
It wasn't hard to see that it was the roots of the vines growing in the cracks that caused the statue to collapse.
But to Morgana, this small episode only made her silent for a moment. Then, she forced herself to maintain her 'motherly' aura and lectured Li Ke.
"They think that growing in the cracks will allow them to live a better life, but they don't know that this is just a blind action that will cause them to suffer heavy casualties and have no home to rely on. Some of Demacia's actions are just as blind as these vines."
She looked wise and mysterious as usual, but in Li Ke's eyes, her reluctance and reluctance to embarrass herself in front of him almost overflowed. He thought it was funny and didn't mention why this place was supposed to be a city, but they ended up in ruins. After all, even if Morgana was an Ascended and a God in the conventional sense, it was impossible for her to remember every change in this land and the whereabouts of everyone.
That was why Li Ke nodded to express his agreement with Morgana's words. He jumped off the horse and walked toward a relatively clean area. He ignored Yatokus's' I'm not a sickle! 'complaints and cut off the surrounding weeds before gesturing for Morgana to come over. However, what he didn't know was that while he was busy tidying up the camp, Morgana was looking at his back, and after confirming that he couldn't hear her, she muttered to herself.
"… This place was still very lively back then."
But this small complaint didn't affect too much. When Li Ke walked over, Li Ke had already gathered a patch of dry grass and started lighting a fire. But as usual, the process of lighting a fire with a flint was annoying enough. After all, they had used up their last tinder in the morning. When they passed by the town, these two people who shouldn't lack common sense didn't think of buying such a thing.
"It's finally lit."
So after the flame rose, Li Ke threw away the flint that had been smashed by him. After all, although it could still be used now, as long as he struck it more than a dozen times, this flint would become pieces of powder. After doing all this, Rhode placed a small pot over the fire and poured the prepared water into the pot. Then, he asked Morgana who was sitting there leisurely.
"How far are we from the capital of Demacia?"
Morgana watched with interest as Li Ke placed the dried meat into the small pot and baked some bread by the fire. Then, she answered Li Ke.
"About a week's journey. But don't worry, Miss Karina won't leave before we arrive. After all, she has the responsibility of sending the prince and the two little ones back. So by the time we got there, she had just arrived. "
Morgana looked at the small pot that Li Ke was fiddling with and seemed to be eager to try it. However, Li Ke didn't notice the excitement and anticipation in her eyes. He silently prepared a simple meal and thought about his next step. After all, no matter what, after dealing with Karina's matter and collecting some forbidden magic stones under Morgana's guidance, it was better for him not to appear in Demacia for the time being. Besides, he was really worried that Zooey would call Hanson to Demacia.
After all, the current Sword Demon might not be able to defeat Hanson, and Hanson clearly wasn't someone who would care about him.
"That's good."
Li Ke nodded. Then, his ears twitched and he vaguely heard something moving in the bushes. He immediately turned his head to look, but all he saw was a scarecrow with its arms swaying in the wind.
Was there this thing when we arrived?
He narrowed his eyes and carefully recalled what he saw when he arrived. However, he didn't find anything in the end. After all, he didn't look in that direction when he arrived, so he naturally couldn't sense it from his memories. He thought it was an illusion, so when he turned to look at Morgana, her eyes suddenly lit up with a purple radiance. Then, she extended her hand towards the scarecrow and clenched it.
Sounds of wood cracking and crows cawing sounded. When Li Ke looked at the scarecrow again, all he saw was a 'scarecrow' that was clenched into a ball by an invisible giant hand. There was also a figure in casual clothes that was running towards the forest in the distance. Morgana ignored the fleeing figure. She combed her hair and continued to watch Li Ke cook, who wasn't interested in chasing after the fleeing figure. Then, she said softly, "Don't worry.
"What a naughty child."
