Killing to Silence

Lulu recounted what she found out when she went out to investigate. It turned out that we had indeed been teleported in using Magic Circle, and that Magic Circle was created by her!

"That's strange, why would they use the teleportation array I created?"

"It might be related to the magical pages we found in a secret room. 👍☺ 🌷★"

"Magic pages?"

Lulu chanted a spell, and a magic book appeared in her palm. She kept flipping through it, and as she flipped, she discovered that the pages were torn!

"Alright, it seems I really did leave it there. The lost chapter happens to contain the teleportation array."

The Lost People transported us to a lost wonderland through lost chapters—a truly dramatic event.

But why would they do that?

"Can you get us out of here?"

"That's easy, but I need to go with you to retrieve my pages."

Lulu casually used her staff to cut an opening, and we all came out. Lux was freezing, Riven quickly handed her the Ice Dragon's Tooth.

We stayed in the same room where we had slept before. It was dusk, and the long night was about to begin.

Lulu retrieved the gems she had used to set up the formation; these were the gems she had left behind.

Upon leaving the room, we didn't find the Lost People, but instead saw two dwarves acting suspiciously, doing something we couldn't quite place.

The two dwarves were startled by our sudden appearance. I didn't know if they could speak, so I tried asking:

How dare you come back?

"We... we must rescue... the Queen." Although his words were slurred, they were still audible.

"Tell me, are the Lost People trying to kill us?"

"I don't know either. If the chieftain and Guna were alive, perhaps they could give you the answer you're looking for."

"You can't save the Queen. We'll settle accounts with them later. You should take advantage of the chaos to act."

Although these dwarves once tried to harm us, it now seems they were nothing more than pawns.

There's no need to beat around the bush with this weak and Lost People; we'll go straight to where Morman is.

He was entertaining guests at the time, and when he saw us suddenly arrive, he was so startled that he almost fell to the ground.

Hi, we meet again.

"You, how did you get out?"

"You admitted it so readily, but why kill us? There should be a reason for repaying kindness with enmity!"

"Dead men need no reason, set up the formation!"

Morman spoke, and dozens of people surrounded us, setting up Magic Circle again.

However, this time the Magic Circle failed, and they probably didn't know that the owner of those pages of the magic book was right in front of them.

However, they did not give up and used a new spell, Magic Demon was still the one recorded in Lulu's lost chapters.

The magic circle shone brightly, and many lovely plants grew inside. They manipulated these plants to entangle us, but Lulu easily freed us.

"My magic isn't for you to hurt others!" Lulu got angry and turned them all into small animals.

"Please undo the transformation, I still have some questions for them."

"Hmph, filthy people don't deserve such a cute appearance." Lulu said, waving her staff.

The Lost People turned pale with fright after transforming back into human form; they had never seen such powerful magic before.

"Can you tell us now? Otherwise, I'll turn you into little animals for the rest of your lives!"

"I... I'm not me, ah..."

Before Morman could finish speaking, someone suddenly stabbed him to death!

Then we watched in astonishment as they began to kill each other; nobody knew what was happening.

Three of these men were clearly stronger and soon won. The rest were all killed, while the three men only suffered minor injuries.

I suddenly regretted not intervening earlier, because these three people might not be the Lost People; their actions just now were an attempt to silence them!

"Why not let Morman finish speaking? You're not the Lost People, are you?"

Strangely, they had just displayed formidable strength, but now, faced with my question, they all committed suicide!

Lux was terrified and hid tightly behind Riven; it seemed the war hadn't numbed her.

"I really don't understand you guys. Why do you have to kill each other? Do your pursuits have to clash?"

Lulu's words are quite similar to what Poppy said before: Yordle don't kill each other, so they can't understand what we're doing.

"It seems the trail has gone cold again. The Lost People were also tools. Can you find your own pages?"

"That's easy."

After Lulu finished speaking, she recited a spell, and several pages of the book floated over automatically and were inserted into the magic book.

"It's too filthy here, I want to go back."

"Let's go somewhere else; I have something to say to Lux."

We arrived at a clean place and began discussing Sylas's rebellion.

It turns out he had been trying to contact Lux for a long time, coveting the powerful magic within her.

To take advantage of her, there had to be something compelling enough to attract her, which led to the idea of resurrecting Leivo.

Lux still misses Leivo, but the war fills her with guilt, so she hasn't returned to Demacia.

Upon learning that Leivo had been resurrected and turned into a monster, she wept bitterly, but later felt relieved to hear that Witt was still alive.

"I'm sorry to Witt. He always gave in to me, but I kept throwing my own tantrums."

"Demacia is undergoing a transformation right now, and I think you should face this issue. If you've made a mistake, you should make amends."

"Yes, I can't keep running away like this. My brother and the others must still be worried about me."

Lulu didn't mind. "It's fine if you want to stay a little longer, I like your innocent personality."

"Thank you, Lulu. I'll come to visit you often, but I need to go back to Demacia. Could you please take me there later?"

"Hmm... alright, let Angel go back with you."

At that critical moment, it was Lulu who saved Lux, but she hated the sight of war, so she only let Angel rescue her.

After briefly understanding the situation, Lulu could no longer stand the environment and kept insisting on going back.

"The smell of blood is wafting over here. I need to go back. Do you two want to come with me?"

"No, we need to continue our adventure. Thank you for the jam."

"Hmph, even Antiquit never received such treatment. You guys are lucky!"

After saying that Lulu left with Lux. Unlike other Yordle, she didn't address Antiquit as the Old Chieftain, which suggests that she was of high seniority.

The dwarves had already rescued their Queen, leaving only Riven and me in the empty mansion.

"Looks like I can finally get a good night's sleep tonight."

"Weren't you going to do something to me? Let's continue in our dreams then," Riven teased me.
