"We need to do more to deal with this man named Li Ke. We have to use more resources to make this magical being work for us. "
Near the Immortal Fortress of Noxus, a secret meeting was held once again. Most of the participants were important nobles of Noxus and some capable military officers.
The one who spoke was an honorable presence sitting at the head of the table: a woman with a mask covering her face and a flat voice.
"… No offense, Pale Lady. That deserter named Li Ke shouldn't be receiving such attention. According to Miss Nola's investigation, he is just a lucky guy who awakened his magic. There's no need to pay too much attention to him."
However, a general whom she relied heavily on and who was once considered to be her deputy spoke up, and what he said was against it.
His behavior made the participants even more focused because this was undoubtedly an attack on their leader's authority.
However, even though the Pale Lady wasn't mindful of this fellow's greed for power and vanity, she shook her head slightly and pointed to the King's chess piece on the chessboard before her.
"Nola is too focused on her personal hobbies. But according to the records of that gladiator, he is a boring person to Nola. Besides, with her magical skills and knowledge, it is hard for her to see through his uniqueness. That's why I don't trust her ability to face men who don't like to play. "
Typical of myself. Although in the eyes of others, this mature and steady Pale Lady was taking care of the young and impulsive Lady Nora, to Lefran, this was just another act.
Just like how running a team was just a higher class activity, for an existence like Lefran, pure playing with power was already an instinct. That was why she added all sorts of interesting settings to her various incarnations and made herself obey them.
Of course, if necessary, she would also use her absolute wisdom to solve the problem like a mage who cast a fireball spell when faced with a difficult problem.
Thousands of meters away, Lefran, the Pale Lady, let go of a young noble's invitation and smiled as she rejected the other party's invitation for another dance. She shifted her gaze and thoughts away from the Pale Lady to the Imperial General who had returned from her brother's army and stayed in the Immortal Fortress. He was the honorable Executioner, Draven.
She knew that Li Ke was extraordinary from the residual magical powers in his body, which was why she thought of ways to capture Li Ke.
But she didn't expect that Li Ke would grow so quickly that Shurima's strength wasn't enough to capture him. That was why she decided to attach importance to Li Ke during the meeting.
Of course, it was also to let another person take over and change the arrangement of the disobedient young noble. This way, regardless of whether the other party successfully captured Li Ke or not, she would still achieve her goal.
As for now, she was going to set up another necessary scene for the gathering: the ladies of the new nobles. Basically, most of the noble ladies hoped to gain enough attention and connections in the female circle. Therefore, as long as she kept inviting them to the gathering, the men who craved the attention of the outstanding ladies would find all kinds of reasons to attend their gatherings.
Then, a new secret gathering and the center of power would appear.
"It's settled then."
Lefran's two incarnations said the same words. However, one of them was an elegant, beautiful young lady, while the other was a chess piece that she was prepared to abandon. One of them was going to contact her friends who couldn't get involved in the Noxus noble circle. The other one was going to test Li Ke's bottom line and make way for someone more useful.
No matter what these two people did, it would make it easier for her to control the Empire and show her more interesting stories.
Today was destined to be a sleepless night for most people. No matter if it was Aichy, who achieved her goal, or Lefran, who was about to achieve her goal, none of the women felt sad.
"Planck …"
Gazing at Planck's incomplete corpse, Olloy, who chased after him, couldn't help but shed tears. But she held it in.
This is my fault.
She thought so, because if she beat Planck when he was satisfied with his position and began to act recklessly, and when he slowly began to stagnate, she would let him face the test of the True God instead of leaving him. Then, he wouldn't have killed to vent his anger. Perhaps he would have been able to survive if he vented the pain of their separation.
He wouldn't have died like this in an unknown place. Not only was there no one worthy of his departure, but he didn't even leave behind his last words.
"You will return to the sea. Return to the sea of your hometown. Planck, this is the only thing I can do for you."
Olloy took off her coat and used her clothes to wrap Planck's broken bones. She was going to give him a floating graveyard after returning to Birgivot according to the laws of the Birgivot people.
However, just as she was walking towards her boat, her heart twitched again.
Why didn't I let him participate in the test of the True God?
She asked herself. In the end, she realized that she had gone against the teachings of the Church and had developed compassion for the test subject. She felt that Planck wouldn't be able to pass the test in his current state, so she didn't let him participate.
"What kind of blasphemy and sin is this …" She sighed.
She sighed and saw a light blue figure appear in front of her. That figure had the handsome face that she had yearned for day and night. He was also wearing a gorgeous Navy uniform. Except for the skull cap on his head, the person who appeared in front of her was Planck, whom she had been obsessed with.
But now, he had become a ghost, and he was quietly standing in front of her, smiling at her.
"Hey, Olloy, I'm here to see you."
Planck opened his arms. He wanted his girlfriend to hug him happily. After all, he was already dead, and her resentment for abandoning him was …
When Planck thought of this, he realized that something was wrong. Orloy didn't seem to be happy.
"Uppercut!"
