However, even though she was well aware of these issues, Lux was still annoyed by these attentive guys.
Noble banquets are scheduled.
There's no end to these bastards!
Fortunately, the resourceful Lux quickly found a way. She consciously raised Sona as a shield, and then, without any instructions, the irritable girl Kashina began to challenge one by one.
Although she still envied Lux for being able to be with her sister all the time, she still accepted the fact that Lux was her sister's best friend because of Lux's "righteous speaking".
However, just because Lux can do it, it doesn’t mean that any toad from any family can do it!
Harassing Sona?
Have you got a meal yet?
If you haven’t eaten... you’ll have to eat my sword!
These annoying guys who come around are usually no match for Kashina, so they are often dealt with in a mess and have no face to show up.
What, you said what if there is someone that Kashina can't deal with?
Then there’s Galen!
Kashina, who held Galen's little secret, called for someone...without any hesitation!
In order to avoid social death and to protect his sister, Galen is always on call!
If the women's singles can't beat the men's singles, then mix doubles!
In this way, Lux and Sona finally found peace.
However, even if the storm gradually subsided, Ogesha, who had been paying attention to the growth of her children, also discovered that something was wrong - she did not know that Lux had an old man named Kalya as a mentor. In her opinion, her daughter was an excellent person.
No-nonsense baby cabbage!
Nowadays, many pigs are eyeing their own cabbage, so what’s the point?
After much deliberation, Ogesha, who had insomnia, decided to send Lux to her hometown in Mithral City for a while. This way, Lux could avoid the whirlpool in the current capital, and at the same time, she could get in touch with her.
Let’s talk about specific business matters.
After all, communication within the framework of etiquette is not everything for aristocrats. Managing territory and coordinating management are also compulsory courses for aristocrats!
In terms of etiquette communication, Lux has done well enough. Now, it's time for her to start her second lesson!
Moreover, the situation in Mithril City has indeed been a bit wrong in the past two years. According to the report of the family manager, the entire Mithril City has been frosty for three consecutive years, and taxes cannot be collected at all.
Three years of frost?
Why are you lying to me?
Although they have repeatedly assured that the taxes are at best in arrears and can eventually be repaid, Ogesha dares to say that the actual situation is definitely not the case!
Frost, right?
OK.
Then let Lux go see what the frost in Mithril City looks like!
By the way, I also gave her the second lesson of nobility and let her see what actual management should be like!
However, before letting Lux go to Mithril City, Ogesha still had a lot to prepare - she sent Lux to Mithril City to teach her daughter, not to let her have an accident, so in terms of safety, she still
Requires more preparation.
Well...that bastard Galen is about to turn fifteen.
According to Mr. Zhao Xin, he is now a real man - a real man should go to the army to gain experience!
Thinking about this, Ogesha found the family map of the vicinity of Mithril City and spread it out on the table in front of her.
After some searching, she quickly found the nearby garrison base.
Since Galen is already a real man, then a man should protect his sister!
Thinking of this, Ogesha quickly took out a pen and paper and started writing furiously under the candlelight.
A letter was written to my sister-in-law Tiana. She was patrolling near Owendale recently. If possible, she was asked to take care of Galen and Lux.
A letter was sent to the Mithril City garrison. A captain in the garrison was a relative of Ogesha's natal family. Ogesha hoped that he could provide some necessary support to Lux.
There is also the last letter, which is addressed to the Grand Marshal of the Fearless Vanguard - the content of this letter does not seem to have anything to do with Galen or Lux. It just praises the hero's heroic deeds during his tenure as the Grand Marshal, and then implicitly expresses that your young master is under the leadership of the Grand Marshal.
The Rangers have a similarly bright future, and so on.
This letter was written in Peter's tone, and the words seemed to be a distance between nobles, but Ogesha believed that the other party would definitely understand what she meant.
After taking out the seal of the Crownguard family and sealing it with wax, Ogesha took the three letters in her hand and sat quietly on the chair.
Unknowingly, the time has already reached the second half of the night.
The matron of the Crown Guard family raised her head and looked at a family portrait hanging on the wall.
This painting was painted seven years ago on New Year's Day.
At that time, the brother-in-law was still there, the captain of the Rangers had a hearty smile; the sister-in-law had not yet fallen in love, and the tomboy of the Fearless Pioneer had a frosty face; Peter was sitting in the middle, holding his hand, and Galen was holding his toy sword horizontally, as if
Protecting his sister.
But now, seven years have passed by in a hurry.
One of the six people in the painting died for his country and was buried in the Hall of Valor. Even when he was buried, he was still smiling with Poro in his arms, as if he had just finished telling an interesting story.
Tiana, who disguised herself as a man and enlisted in the army, has now become the deputy commander of the Dauntless Vanguard and is working towards the position of marshal.
Peter was sitting upright, his body was covered with hidden wounds, and the pain was always unbearable when it rained. However, when the fortress was being built at Mourngate, he still ate and lived with the soldiers.
Ogesha said goodbye to the anxiety of her girlhood and finally began to proudly declare that she had become a qualified mother.
Lux, who was losing her teeth at that time, has now become a model of nobility praised by the nobles of the capital, and her whole person has become more and more graceful.
Galen, who once could only huff and puff, has finally calmed down and is becoming more and more like a real man.
And now, Lux and Galen will also leave the capital of Demacia and go to Mithril City for the next stop.
They will truly see the people and soldiers they will manage in the future.
They will spread their young wings like birds leaving their nests.
At this moment, Ogesha felt empty.
Soon, there will be only one lonely mistress left in the huge Crownguard Manor.
Ogesha also wants to go to Mithril City to take a vacation for herself.
But... let's forget it.
The "Art Support Association" formed by Lux must be watched carefully; even if the Crownguard family is deeply trusted by the king, it only needs one important person to stay in the capital.
Thinking on the bright side, does this mean that I no longer need to act like my mother and can give up the tasteless salad for the time being?
It's quiet at night.
Ogesha sat there for a long time. After returning to her room, she took out an exquisite flute from the small compartment of the dressing table.
In the empty garden, Mrs. Crownguard, who was usually solemn and serious, was sitting in the pavilion. She gently brought the flute to her lips, and then took a deep breath.
The melodious sound of the flute soon drifted into the quiet night of Xiongdu.
Ogesha's fingering is no longer skillful, and her breath is no longer stable.
But as the minor tune of "Song of Triumph" played, she seemed to have returned to twenty years ago, to the time when she first met Pete.
At that time, he was wearing bright clothes and angry horses, and together with His Majesty the King, he defeated the Noxians and returned victoriously.
At that time, I came to the capital of Demacia from Mithril City for the first time, and I cheered excitedly among the crowd - although I didn't know why I was cheering.
As if realizing that playing the flute in the middle of the night would disturb people's dreams, Ogesha chose "Microsilver Mountain Night" as the second song after the first song.
It's a pity that she can no longer play the melodious tune smoothly, and the whining flute sound is just like Pete's clumsy playing when she tried to teach him eighteen years ago - that time, the broken tune and silly
His smile annoyed the girl who was teaching seriously. She gritted her teeth and asked the other party why she insisted on learning from her even though she knew she had no sense of music.
Peter put down his flute, lay down on the sunny hillside, and said hahaha: "Because...this way I can play the flute you played before!"
Thinking of these words, even Ogesha now can still feel her heart beating faster.
Perhaps because her heartbeat was too fast, Ogesha failed to play the last few portamentos smoothly. She pursed her lips and put down the slightly out-of-tune piccolo.
Then, she stood up, shook her head gently, and wiped her face.
When she raised her head again, she had regained her elegance and calmness.
Holding the spare key and holding the candlestick, she quietly left a kiss on the foreheads of her son and daughter, and then whispered good night in a voice that could only be heard by herself.
Finally, Ogesha, who returned to her room, blew out the candles and lay down on the soft double bed.
This time, Ogesha slept particularly soundly.
……………………
Although Kalya was aware of what happened in the second half of the night, she did not tell Lux.
At this time, Lux has reached the final step of carving the magic circuit.
Daily exercise made her hands steadier than those of many experienced masons, and her solid theoretical knowledge made the construction of magic circuits her instinct. After three years of learning magic, Lux finally carved in her own home.
In the room, a complete magic absorption and amplification circuit was successfully carved for the first time!
Placed in the reserved groove, Kalya felt the magic power gathered from the Forbidden Demon Stone, and almost had the urge to look up to the sky and roar.
How many years!
I finally have my own magic power again!
Then, before he could be happy for long, this magic power was quickly lost without a trace, just like water poured into a sieve.
"..."
Kalya, who was extremely excited one moment, was speechless and choked the next moment, and his silence made Lux, who was also very excited, also fall silent.
"What's wrong, Kalya?" Lux asked cautiously, "Is the circuit wrong?"
"The circuit is correct." Kalya's tone was calm, as if she was about to cry next moment, "It's my fault."
"???"
Lux had never heard Kalya speak in such a tone. She looked at her sword blankly, as if she was seeing Kalya for the first time.
"But, it's okay." Kalya quickly adjusted her mentality, "At least from now on, I can use the magic power of the forbidden magic stone to give you and Sona the next stage of training."
"What training?" Hearing Kalya say this, Lux finally felt relieved, "Practical training? Have you started casting spells?"
"The last step before practice." Karya said word for word, "actual combat simulation training!"
