"Seriously …"
Camilla couldn't remember how long it had been since she last encountered such a scene. Was it when she became a secret agent of her family? Or was it when she accepted the reformation for her family and left the person she loved?
She really couldn't remember, but she still remembered how she dealt with the other party after being rejected for a cup of tea.
"It seems like there's nothing left for us to talk about. Sir, if you still want to maintain your dignity, you and your female companion should quickly purchase the resources you need and discuss the business you need. Then, leave this city. I believe that even though you will lose the right to tour this city, you will gain the friendship of the Filos Family. Once you mature, you will be invited to tour this city again. "
Even though she didn't dare to kill a Noxus general, she could still list him as an unwelcome person in Piltoff and Zu An and forbid him from entering this city. Furthermore, she was certain that doing so would definitely affect the other party's career and cause him to lose face in front of the emperor. After all, a general who was rejected by his allies couldn't be casually displayed in public.
This was the best way. Not only would she preserve their relationship as allies, but she would also eliminate any possible unrest in Piltoff and Zu An. While doing so, she would also display the prestige of the Filos Family. It could be said that this was the best way to resolve this matter apart from reconciliation.
However.
"What if I don't agree?"
Li Ke looked at the woman who was still courteous even after being splashed with black tea. She did not show any signs of wavering because of external reasons. As the 'hero' of this era, Li Ke sincerely admired her character. It wasn't easy for anyone to swallow their pride. Camilla was obviously the kind of person who was willing to give up everything for her goals and ideals. If such a person didn't succeed and create a legendary career, she would only die prematurely.
"Please don't joke around, sir. This isn't something to joke about."
Camilla bowed slightly as a courtesy between nobles.
"With your status, it's best that you don't say such things. Otherwise, we will take it seriously."
Li Ke could only reply with a mocking smile. The moment he saw Camilla, he knew that if he didn't give these people enough deterrence, he wouldn't be able to continue staying here. Those who were able to stand in high positions were all smart people. Even if they weren't smart people, these spies would still be smart people. They would definitely be able to see through his intentions for investigating this information. In the eyes of outsiders, his identity as a Noxus people was destined to receive special treatment. And the things he wanted to spread were destined not to be spread quietly, even among a small group of people.
Therefore, if he didn't beat them until they were scared and crippled, then everything he did here would be meaningless.
Books that promoted their ideas would be burned directly, and those who followed them would be killed directly. They would even be publicly executed in cruel ways. They would publicly torture those who were willing to follow them in the cruelest and most humiliating way because if these people didn't die, they would die. This was something that would definitely happen. The existence of intelligent people and history told us that this was something that was bound to happen.
After all, due to all kinds of benefits and a large influx of people, this place seemed to be harmonious and everyone was working hard. However, this didn't mean that problems didn't exist and exploitation didn't exist. Under the beautiful flowers shining under the sunlight, smelly mud and rotten meat were still stained with blood. Those who constantly exuded a foul stench from their pores were still above those who were truly hardworking. The reason why these hardworking people were still working hard was that no one gave them a direction. No one told them what they deserved and what they should have.
That was why this place was so harmonious and wouldn't explode at the slightest provocation and become the most beautiful fireworks.
On top of that, they would even work together with the people who exploited them to defame themselves, kill, and torture those who had the same thoughts as them. This was because they could see the benefits that these people gave them, as well as the beauty that the society they lived in gave them, but they couldn't see anything better.
However, Camilla's words made him laugh uncontrollably. His identity? What kind of identity could he have? In fact, he didn't understand why Camilla was so polite to him. It had been half a month, and if there was an investigation, it should have been completed by now. The possibility of her being coaxed by him with his noble attitude didn't exist at all. He didn't treat the nobles of Pi City as fools, which was why he didn't hold back his mocking.
"My identity as a Noxus man? Don't make me laugh. I was a slave in Noxus. I killed my 'master' with my own hands and obtained my freedom. But here, how much weight does a slave have? "
What did he mean?
Camilla was also a little confused, but after thinking about it, she couldn't help but complain about the system of their allies. After all, the Noxas Family was the only family in this world that could make slaves into generals. Of course, a slave like him wouldn't know what was valuable after becoming a general. However, what made her suspicious was how a peasant general could grasp Noxus's noble etiquette so well. Furthermore, according to her investigation, he was the heir of a noble family.
"No, even in Noxus, being able to turn a slave into a general naturally has its merits."
She knitted her brows. She still felt that it was troublesome, but since things had developed to this stage, there was no other way. It was inevitable to have conflicts with her allies. Thus, she could only act faster and try to spare this young and insensible general within her capabilities.
After all, she could just gift him a complete set of Hex's limbs when he left!
"Then, have you made your decision?"
Camilla put down the teapot and tidied her wet clothes.
"I just feel that there's no need for us to continue …"
As soon as Li Ke's voice fell, he saw Camilla suddenly turn her waist. Using her left leg as a fulcrum, she swept her shining right leg towards his thigh. It took less than half a second for her incomparably sharp right leg to cut his legs.
"You shouldn't …"
Camilla began to declare her victory, but at the next moment, Li Ke raised his hand. A ball of shining starlight energy erupted from his body and blasted the room he was in. Everything in the room was sent flying.
"… Cut the crap, right?"
