【0038】 Laxana and the Prisoners of the Imprisoned Prison
The story of Silas is actually not that long.
Silas used to be a poor young man from a small town called Biangou. His family's conditions were not even as good as those of Ino. But even so, when he was found to be possessed by demons, he was persuaded by his parents to surrender to the demon searchers.
.
"From this aspect, you are much braver than me." Ino thought silently, "At least when I found out that I could turn the water in the cup into ice, I didn't dare to surrender to the demon seeker."
After surrendering, Silas described his demon-contaminated symptoms in detail. Unlike Ino, who could intuitively control frost, Silas could see other people's magic power - and this talent made the demon seekers finally choose to accept him.
He became a member of the Demon Searchers, looking for mages hidden among the crowd.
"Fortunately, I didn't meet him." Ino secretly rejoiced, "This kind of ability... is too scary."
Silas obviously didn't know what Ino was thinking, and he continued to tell his story.
After becoming a demon seeker, he was forbidden to have contact with other people, and everything could only be done through disciplining people. Even if he was already a member of the demon seekers, his identity as a mage was still feared by others.
However, after becoming a magic hunter, Silas discovered an extremely astonishing fact - the existence of magic is more common than people think, and even the manors of famous nobles often sparkle with the unique charm of magic.
Aura!
"Are you sure you didn't read it wrong?" Ino felt a little unbelievable about Silas's statement, "Nobles know magic?"
"I think it's good." Silas snorted, "They slander mages, but they don't show mercy at all when they use magic!"
At this moment, Ino thought of the guy who forced him to use magic - this was the case with Cordola.
Although that bastard doesn't seem to understand magic, he still knows how to use magic.
"Then what." Ino did not continue to question, "You revealed this?"
"I'm not a fool." Silas shook his head and smiled helplessly, "Nobles and commoners are different. They can use it, but it doesn't mean that I can say it - even if I know this, I still can't.
I can only honestly be a demon hunter."
"..."
"Later, when I was on a mission, I discovered a barn full of magic." Silas said in a complicated tone, "I have never seen such amazing magic. It seemed like a war was brewing.
lightning - so I reported it to the chaperone and went into the barn."
"..."
"In the barn, I saw a little girl." Silas's story continues, "She may not have been ten years old, maybe not even eight years old - but she had more magic than I have ever experienced in my life.
I have seen her before. When she saw the blue robe on me, she tried hard to restrain the arc and tried to hide in the corner."
Ino still didn't speak, but her mood was not as calm as it seemed.
"After such underage demon-contaminated people are discovered, most of them will be ordered to drink the magic-forbidden potion. The stuff mixed with the magic-forbidden stone powder is not delicious." Silas sighed again, "But this
The magic power of the little girl is so amazing that once she is discovered, she will inevitably be exiled - and at her age, it is difficult to survive without her family, so I want to let her escape first."
"..."
"I lied to the supervisor, but he saw through my lie." Silas recalled the situation at that time and said slowly, "He wanted to use the forbidden magic stone to control the little girl, but he failed.
The lightning that had been brewing for a long time exploded, completely swallowing her, her father, and the disciplinarian who tried to catch her."
So much for Silas's story.
After saying everything, he leaned on the railing with some dejection.
And Ino didn't speak.
The "Youth Class" of the Forbidden Demon Prison once again fell into silence.
After a long time, Ino finally spoke.
"Mr. Silas, I sympathize with your experience." The little girl finally approached him cautiously, "About your past, your pain... Although I cannot fully empathize with you, I can still understand."
"Of course it's understandable." Silas smiled bitterly, "We are the same kind of people - the kind of people who have been forgotten and abandoned by this glorious country."
"No, no." Although Ino showed sympathy, she shook her head firmly, "Demacia has not abandoned us, just like you once became a magic hunter and I made friends with Miss Lux.
"
"You and Lux have made friends?" Silas was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing, "Are you serious, little girl, you mean, you are friends with that noble lady?"
"That's right!" Ino nodded, "The mage just has a poor background, like a born disabled person——"
"We are not disabled people!" Silas interrupted Eno, "Magic is a talent, not a disability - and besides, being imprisoned is never because of magic, but because we are civilians!"
"What are you talking about?" Silas's irritable speech surprised Ino. She waved her hands subconsciously and retorted, "Magic is magic, and out-of-control spells can only cause tragedy! I know this very well!"
"Only civilians' magic is dyed magic!" Silas gritted his teeth, "And for nobles, magic is just a small problem!"
"How is this possible?" Ino shook his head in disbelief, "Previously, a noble lord I knew was sentenced to hanging for using magic. The only help his noble status gave him was to avoid being beheaded.
Only a complete corpse was left..."
"That's because he failed in the political struggle!" Silas sneered, "The relationship between nobles and magic is much closer than you think - for example, Miss Lux, who you thought was your friend, she is too
A demoniac!"
"Miss Lux... a dyer?" Ino suddenly stood up, looked around and rolled up the book on the ground into a short stick, holding it with both hands, showing a defensive look, "You actually slandered her as a dyer?
Demon?!"
"She is!" Silas had a mocking expression on his face, "I clearly saw her sword, and the hilt is the [Penitent's Magical Weapon] inside the Demon Searcher!"
"The penitent's weapon?"
"Yes, it's a good thing that only belongs to the nobles. As long as you take it, you don't have to worry about the magic getting out of control and the devil being exposed." Silas's expression gradually twisted, "My supervisor said at the beginning that if I
If you can continue to serve the Demon Searchers, when this magic weapon becomes available, you may be able to apply for me to use it..."
"!!!"
"She is the little princess of the Crownguard family, right?" Silas' sarcasm continued, "Nobles also have levels. I remember that the magic weapon has an owner - it seems to be some small noble? It's a pity that there is nothing.
Use it, the little princess of the Crown Guard family needs it, so it can only be dedicated to that little princess..."
"That's enough!" At this moment, Ino finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Shut your foul mouth, murderer! Don't use your evil to speculate on Lux!"
“Speculation? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha-wait for her to come next time, you can ask yourself, maybe she will be happy to share this secret with you, maybe?”
"..."
"Of course, the greater possibility is that I will feel panic for a while, and then I will never want to see you again, or even take the initiative to silence you!"
"..."
"The friendship between noble ladies, hahahahahaha, this is the funniest joke I have heard in ten years. Wake up, little girl, you are not from the same place!"
