"What a peaceful day. It's great that no accidents happened."

Li Ke sat in the square with a cup of warm milk in his hand, eating snacks while looking at the vast Demacia Square. The building called the Grand Square did not disappoint him. Perhaps it was designed together from the beginning, so the surrounding buildings and the square complemented each other perfectly. The combination of the two formed a perfect work of art. The style of gold, white, and blue gave people a clean, bright, and unusually spacious feeling.

This kind of Greek-style architecture was full of geometric beauty. Although there were also some flashy decorations, for a capital with strong enough city walls, it wasn't a matter that could be criticized for having some decorative buildings. And if that was considered extravagant, then the Winged Guardian statues that Demacia had built at the corners of the city walls, or rather, at the corners of the city walls, and the gigantic statues on both sides of the grand plaza, were even more 'extravagant'.

But compared to the ancient Greek buildings, although the two were similar in style, there was no doubt that the buildings and statues of Demacia were more delicate and bright. Although there was a difference in productivity, it was enough to prove the greatness of the craftsmen of Demacia. Even Li Ke felt small and insignificant when he walked among these exquisitely carved buildings. After all, most of these statues were more than ten meters tall. As long as one's body shape was still that of a human, one would naturally feel an inexplicable feeling towards these huge creatures.

However, Yatokus was not satisfied. To be precise, Li Ke had never seen him satisfied with anything.

"What a boring kingdom. Using statues and legends to suppress the hearts of the people, making them unconsciously revere these huge statues. Then, using so-called virtues to turn this reverence into obedience. Ah … this world has never changed. No matter what era it is, there will always be such stupid things. And this country full of statues is the best of the fools! "

He gently bit into a biscuit, letting the aroma of milk and wheat fill his mouth. The white sugar and sesame seeds on the biscuit made him feel happy, so he didn't have time to pay attention to Yatox's daily complaints. Instead, he quickly stuffed the few biscuits into his mouth in one go, because …

"Over there! The law forbade eating under the statues in the grand plaza! Don't you know?! "

The guards guarding the square roared.

"I really didn't know there was such a rule."

Li Ke muttered. He quickly stood up from the stairs, picked up the milk that he hadn't finished and started running. The patrolling guard naturally chased after him. In the beginning, Li Ke could still calmly drink milk to moisten his throat while running slowly. But as the two of them ran, the surrounding guards quickly joined in the chase. Even some of the cavalrymen patrolling around the square focused their attention on this comical chase.

Therefore, Li Ke had only run a few laps when the situation magically turned into a scene of over a hundred guards chasing after him. Li Ke didn't know what to say. He wanted to stop. After all, it was just eating under the statue, so it shouldn't be a big problem. But when he heard Yatoku's voice, he suddenly thought of something.

He was still a wanted criminal in Demacia.

"Although I've sighed once, your ability to cause trouble is really amazing."

But Li Ke would never admit such a thing, so he retorted.

"Shut up! Who do you think I can't stop to explain?!"

But Yatoku's answer was, as always, his style.

"Why don't you just kill them all?"

Li Ke no longer paid attention to this guy who only knew how to kill all day. Instead, he relied on his physical strength to grab onto the window of a house. Then, amidst the exclamations of the civilians nearby, he jumped up and climbed up the protrusion on the wall. In a few seconds, he climbed up the protrusion on the wall and climbed to the top of the two-storey building. Then, he quickly ran on the roof.

And the guards chasing after him were just as persistent. Although they couldn't directly climb up to the roof like him, as Demacian soldiers, they could easily enter the houses and walk up to the rooftops. Therefore, before Li Ke could throw it too far, he could already see those Demacian soldiers climbing up to the roofs of the houses like extras in a Jackie Chan movie, clumsily running towards him while wearing their heavy armour.

Seeing this, Li Ke sighed in despair. He had given up on the stubbornness of the Demacians, especially when he saw those armoured Demacian soldiers appearing in front of him. He really had the urge to curse and swear.

"I'm just eating a biscuit under the statue … Do you have to do this?"

Speechless, Li Ke asked a soldier who had opened the skylight beside him. Then, under the soldier's horrified gaze, he stepped on the skylight. The skylight that the soldier had opened with great difficulty was closed again, and the skylight collided with the soldier's hard helmet. Li Ke had no choice but to look for a way out again. This time, he jumped up and down the houses and ran towards the other streets.

And coincidentally, after he jumped through two alleys, he saw a rope with many flags hanging on it, connected to the rooftops on both sides of the street. So, under the furious gaze of the pursuing soldiers, he jumped down, grabbed the rope with his gloved hand, and slid across the street.

But unfortunately, just as he was about to slide to the balcony of the opposite house, he saw the little girl who was admiring the flowers smiling at him. Then, under his astonished gaze, she lifted her skirt, pulled out a sword from her slender thigh, and cut the rope he was holding.

Li Ke didn't fall, but when he landed on the ground, he was still a little confused. He first looked at the broken rope in his hand, then at the Demacian soldiers who had a look of 'Where are you running to?' on their faces. Finally, he raised his head and looked at the little girl who had a smug look on her face. And when the little girl saw him looking at her like this, she couldn't help but raise her head. Like a proud little hen, she puffed out her basically bare chest and let out a clear and cute voice.

"The one who defeated you is Fiona of the Laurent family. Remember that."

Tsk, and a loli at that.

Li Ke couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
