"But what's going on over there? Why is it so noisy? "
The one who interrupted Karina's train of thought was the daughter of the Bouvier Family. The blonde girl looked at the chaotic crowd and the guards who were running around with a puzzled look on her face. It was only then that Li Ke saw the familiar noble lady and her chest that made her clothes tighten.
"Something must have happened at the city gate. For example, they caught a mage who plotted to destroy the peace of Demacia. "
Galen held his head indifferently, then waved his arm abruptly, as if he were fighting some terrifying monster. However, Carina felt that something was wrong because the fiancé she wanted to kill was working at the city gate. Moreover, he wasn't a small official, and it was only in this relatively peaceful situation. Only a person like him could become a city gate official. Moreover, the honor of his family didn't allow him to not join the army. Therefore, he was able to accumulate a lot of connections and some cute things.
Of course, Karina herself had also contributed a lot to his position.
"Let's ask."
Thus, Karina pulled over a soldier who was hurriedly running past her. After showing her badge as a member of the Royal Guard, she heard a piece of information that she didn't want to hear from the young soldier.
"City gate official Zanem Chevalier was killed by an assassin from Noxus!"
The soldier didn't know about the grudge between the Chevalier Family and the Royal Guard Family. In fact, ordinary civilians didn't know about the marriage between the Chevalier Family and the Royal Guard Family. Therefore, when he quickly said this sentence, he was surprised to see Carina's body shake violently. Then, she tightly grabbed his shoulder. Her strength was so strong that even though he was wearing a full body armor, he couldn't stand still.
"You … What did you say?!"
Carina couldn't believe her ears. But she didn't wait for the soldier to repeat his words. She let go of the frightened soldier and ran towards the city gate. She didn't even care that her sword and bag had fallen to the ground. Instead, she ran towards the place where her ex-fiancé was. Carina didn't even have the time to care about her sword and bag. She quickly ran towards the place where her ex-fiancé was. In her hurry, she only had the time to shout to the second daughter of the Bouvier Family and the guards who were 'escorting' her.
"Please take care of Lux and Garen!"
Li Ke, who didn't think that the death of a person by the city gate would have anything to do with Karina, also sensed something amiss. He immediately returned to the city gate, but in order not to be suspected of his identity, he quickened his pace and couldn't run like Karina. So when he arrived at the city gate, he saw Karina being pulled away from the city gate officer by the crying officer. The officer even allowed this woman to fall to the ground.
"I'm sorry, Miss Carina. Although … Although someone recognized that the person who killed my brother was a Noxus war stonemason … Please forgive me for not trusting you for the time being … So please don't get close to my brother. After all, it will only put both of us in an awkward situation."
When Li Ke arrived, he happened to hear the man saying this in a sad tone. However, Li Ke didn't know whether it was an illusion or not, but he could see a trace of joy in the eyes of the man who was hugging the clerk and crying. In his tone, there was more or less a different emotion than sadness. To be precise, it should be anger and disbelief, as well as hatred toward his younger brother.
"But I …"
Carina trembled as she stood up from the ground. She wanted to say something, but when she saw the man named Zhanem Chevalier lying on the ground and the pendant with the portrait of a young girl in his hand and the relieved smile on his face, she couldn't help but cry. But the soldier only wanted Carina to leave as soon as possible. After all, this matter was too strange. He suspected that his younger brother had done something wrong to the family. Therefore, his body must not be touched by anyone other than them. Otherwise, it would be very likely that there would be big trouble.
"So please leave."
Carina knew what he said was right, but she still wanted to take one last look at the man she once loved. But when she took two steps towards Zhanem's body, Zhanem's brother pulled out his sword.
"Please leave."
He repeated. Although the guards beside him didn't want to get into a conflict with the Royal Wei Family, they still came over and wanted Carina to leave. But to Carina, she knew that this would be the last time she could see her brother. Because of what he had done when he was alive, the Royal Wei Family couldn't send a single person to attend his funeral.
"I swear on my family name, I'm just giving him the last gift I prepared for him. I won't do anything unnecessary."
Carina took out a feather pen made from the bones of a Viper and the feathers of a precious bird from Ionia. This was one of the reasons why she bought the Green Dragon that Li Ke killed. But she also knew that after she gave it to him, he would definitely find a way to destroy this precious feather pen. But when that time came, two secret tickets that would allow them to safely travel to Pirtewoff and a proof of entry to Pirtewoff's treasury would appear before him.
But now …
"No, Carina. You've done enough for him. Leaving now is the best choice for everyone."
However, his elder brother, Tigulev, refused to let Karina get close to his younger brother. Therefore, he moved his sword closer to Karina, completely revealing his intentions. However … ….
"Isn't it better to listen to what she has to say?"
A hand suddenly grabbed his arm that was holding the sword, and before he could react, the sword in his hand was snatched away. When the guards beside him stabbed their spears at the figure who snatched his sword, he felt his sword being stuffed back into its scabbard. His guards, on the other hand, were all sent flying by this figure who was so fast that he couldn't see it clearly. Then, he realized that the figure who was so fast that he couldn't see clearly was carrying a gigantic sword that was almost the size of an adult on his back!
Was there such a person in Demacia?!
He was terrified because this meant that if this person wanted to, he wouldn't be able to survive. But the continuation of his family was more important than anything else. That was why he looked at the silver-haired man and gave a resolute answer.
"No."
Li Ke couldn't help but twitch his brows. As he was about to say something, Carina grabbed his arm.
"That's enough. Let's leave."
When Carina said this, her hair covered her eyes. She took out a colorful specimen of a rose from her arms and threw it to the ground. But before the rose landed on the ground, all its petals fell off in an instant. Li Ke subconsciously scooped it up.
"We've caused enough trouble for them."
After she finished speaking, she pulled Li Ke away. The surrounding guards who were at a loss because of Li Ke's actions also heaved a sigh of relief. After all, even though it didn't involve them, if a conflict between the honorable nobles of Demacia were to happen again, it would mean that things were developing in a direction that no one wanted. Li Ke hesitated for a moment. He saw that Carina's feet were wet and she was pulling him with all her might. It was obvious that she really wanted to leave.
"Okay."
His answer made everyone heave a sigh of relief. But what he didn't expect was that after Karina pulled him to a remote alley, she pushed him away and made a gesture of drawing her sword.
"Go to hell! You villain who murdered the king! "
Carina's aura was very strong, but unfortunately, she didn't manage to touch her sword.
