A Different Turn

Darius didn't believe me until the end, but he promised to slow down the offensive. If he didn't see any results after a month, he would attack Demacia with all his strength..•♫•♬• ❻➈ •♬•♫•.

Huo Su and I turned west and headed straight for Silver City. If I could find Jarvan, tell him about the dream, and then quell Sylas's rebellion, I would surely gain their trust.

We were subjected to strict checks when passing through the eastern mountains, but Huo Su and I weren't carrying any dangerous items, so we easily passed the checkpoints.

It took us almost three days to reach Silver City, and along the way, the story of the "Savior" was being told everywhere.

However, this savior is not a child of the Laurent Family, but Princess of the House of Lightshield.

The prophecy was almost exactly the same as it had been: the eastern plains shimmered with rosy light, and the Princess of the House of Lightshield would be remembered for eternity.

It seems that after I became Ezreal, this prophecy had nothing to do with Leivo anymore; now it sounds more like Lux.

If Demacia and Noxus continue their war, Lux could very well awaken Galio and secure victory.

Meeting Jarvan is no easy task; he now commands the King's Army, is responsible for the defense of Silver City, and is ready to support the Dauntless Vanguard at any time.

In the end, I had no choice but to meet him as an envoy of Noxus.

"Are you two representing Noxus?"

"Not entirely. I only came to see you under this pretext because I had no other choice. My purpose is to stop the war between the two countries."

"Noxus started this war. If you want a truce, you should talk to Darius."

"I have already met with Darius, and he has agreed to slow down the offensive, hoping to resolve the dispute through dialogue."

"A dialogue? What is there for us to talk about?"

"Yes, for example, the Evil Eyes in my dreams."

"What's the meaning?"

Jarvan looked puzzled, so I described the disaster dream in detail, but he still shook his head after listening:

"I don't know what you're talking about. I've never had such a dream, and I don't know anything about Evil Eyes."

"Think about it again, it's an evil eye lurking in the air, and..."

"That's enough. I'm busy. Don't waste your time here, or I'll lock you up."

"Alright, I won't talk about that then, but there's one thing you must hear: Demacia will soon be plunged into civil war."

"Internal strife? Hahaha... Demacia is united, how could internal strife occur?"

"Yes, Demacia mages have always faced discrimination, and they will launch a civil war under Sylas's leadership."

"Sylas? You're getting more and more absurd! Someone, bring Captain Sylas over here!"

At Jarvan's command, Sylas arrived quickly, clad in Demacia armor, looking imposing.

"Your Prince? You called me?"

"This guest says you will betray Demacia in the future. Let's have a confrontation."

"What makes you say that? I might have harbored resentment before, but His Your Majesty the King has already enacted laws to protect the rights of mages. I have no reason to harbor any rebellious thoughts anymore. Please consider this carefully!"

"No need to investigate further, it was this guest who said it. I'm just wondering why he said that."

Sylas and Jarvan looked at me, hoping for a satisfactory answer, but I had nothing to say.

This world is different from what I knew; it was different from the very beginning when I met Huo Su.

Now that they've arrived in Demacia, even the mages have been freed, so how could Sylas possibly rebel?

When Jarvan saw that I didn't explain, he ordered his men to drive us out. The last look he gave me was like that of someone looking at a senile person.

"Ezreal, why don't they believe what you say?"

"I don't know either, things might not be as I thought."

"So what do we do? Should we continue to meddle in their business?"

"This is no small matter; it could easily lead to a huge disaster. Let's go to Avarosa and double-check this."

Huo Su and I turned north, like two wanderers, unsure of what lay ahead.

Before we even reached the Avarosa tribe, we were surrounded by a pack of Northland Giant Wolf, a situation almost identical to when Darius and I were trapped last time.

Huo Su wasn't worried at all. "A few little puppies dare to mess with me!"

After she finished speaking, she mustered her strength, and a giant flaming ram appeared in mid-air, scaring the pack of wolves into trembling.

This has nothing to do with strength, but rather with a fear ingrained in one's blood.

At that moment, a little boy suddenly appeared among the wolf pack. He looked about seven or eight years old and was dressed like the Avarosa people.

Who are you people! Why did you sneak out here?!

The little boy had a loud voice, but he still couldn't shake off his childishness. Judging from his good relationship with the wolf pack, he was no ordinary person.

"We are explorers, just passing through. Is this the territory of the Avarosa tribe?"

"Yes, we are currently at war. Please leave!"

"May I see your chieftain? I have some questions for her."

"You want to see Mother? No!"

"Mother? You're Ashe's child?"

"How dare you call your mother by her name? This is disrespectful! She is Queen Avarosa, and she will one day unify Freljord!"

I didn't expect Ashe to already have a child, and she gets along very well with the giant wolf.

He seemed wary of us, perhaps because he was somewhat intimidated by Huo Su's power.

Just as I was wondering how to tell him, another acquaintance appeared: Uncle Wolf.

Uncle Wolf was the Old Chieftain of Avarosa; I suffered a lot at his hands back then.

During the Battle of Freljord, if Warwick hadn't arrived in time, we probably would have had a very difficult time defeating him.

Seeing him with Ashe's child made me realize that he was the one who taught the child to control the wolf pack!

"Grandpa Wolf, you're here!"

"You little wolf cub, who are you talking to?"

"They were two strangers who wanted to see my mother, but I found it very suspicious!"

"Yes, well done! Leave this to me, you go back to the tribe, your mother is looking for you!"

Hearing Uncle Wolf's words, the child rode away on a giant wolf. Uncle Wolf, emboldened, approached us and politely greeted us.

What brings you here, my friend from afar?

"Hello, we are Adventurers, currently traveling around and would like to pay our respects to Queen Avarosa!"

"Oh, is that so? It's not difficult to see our Queen, but you must accept a challenge, no matter who that challenge comes from."

"Good!"

Before I could even say anything, Huo Su immediately agreed.

Since that's the case, I won't say anything more. I'll just follow Uncle Wolf to Avarosa.

As for the wolf pack, Uncle Wolf waved his hand and they all scattered, as if it were a command from the Wolf King.
