Chapter 206: I Will Never Be a Slave

"This..." Riven and Marit were both slightly stunned.
Orianna used Noxian logic to make them understand the feasibility of the Leader's theory.
Indeed, as long as the leaders can become the strongest in the world, their rules will naturally become the rules of the whole world.
However, are there really strong people who will not exploit the weak, but protect the weak, and even be willing to lower their status and limit their authority to maintain personal equality with the weak?
"That's just wishful thinking." Marit said disdainfully, "The strong prey on the weak, that's human nature!"
"No, this is not a delusion." Orianna risked her words, "President Levi, Professor Victor, Miss Mel, Miss Seraphine, all the leaders, they are all such people!"
"They are not fighting for themselves, but for the ideals of mankind!"
As she spoke, she stared at Marit, Riven, and all the Noxians present.
"You laugh at the ideal of equality for all and advocate the law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak. In fact, it is only because you now regard yourself as the strong, the meat eater."
They are strong and live very comfortably in the current jungle rules, so they don't want to change.
"But have you ever thought about..."
"Compared to the strong, you are weak!"
Perhaps because she had given up hope, Orianna gained courage.
She stared at Crete and the soldiers fiercely: "You, you guys! You are weak in front of your superiors!"
"If these two women want to kill you, you will be crushed to death like bugs!"
“……” The soldiers were suddenly speechless.
Especially Crete.
He had only been in the army for a short time and had just become a "strong man".
Orianna's words reminded him of the painful years he had spent over the past twenty years at the hands of landlords and grain-collecting teams.
Moreover, even though he is rich now, he is still a weak person.
If he accidentally offended his superior, his superior could kill him at any time.
Does it really feel good to live in this world where the strong prey on the weak and your future is uncertain?
"And you!" Orianna looked at Marit and Riven angrily again: "Do you think you are strong just because you are an officer?"
"No, there are greater generals above you, and chapter leaders, and the Emperor."
"Just like if it was General Amystan, as long as she wanted you to die, you would be powerless! In front of her, you are just weaklings!"
The strong disdain to be equal to the weak because they always forget that they are also weak in front of the stronger ones.
"Sophistry!" Marit said disdainfully: "Why would General Amistan want us to die for no reason?"
"We are the Rune Swordsman Corps, not cannon fodder that can be wasted at will!"
Riven thought so too.
She had no family since she was a child, and the military camp was her home. General Amistan was also someone she respected very much.
Riven didn't believe that her respected superior would just sit there and let them die.
"So..." Orianna laughed angrily: "You think the general needs a reason to kill you?"
"Of course." Riven said.
"But according to the natural law you believe in, the slaughter of the weak by the strong is naturally just. Why do we need a reason?"
"..." Riven was a little dizzy for a moment.
And Orianna told her mockingly: "You think it is reasonable for you to ride on the weak, but the general needs a legitimate reason to kill you. Isn't this contradictory?"
"Or... have you subconsciously considered yourselves to be equal to the general in personality?"
"What gave this illusion?"
These words made the soldiers blush.
Riven also frowned thoughtfully.
"That's enough!" Marit didn't want to listen anymore.
"Heretical ideas." She waved her hand impatiently and gave orders to the soldiers: "Take the man back."
"Where are they being taken?" the soldiers asked. "Is it still the labor camp?"
Marit glanced at Riven. After all, she seemed to be interested in this Piltover girl.
Riven thought about it and really had a kind heart: "Catch her back and make her my slave."
She was impressed by Orianna. She finally took the slave girl. It was like saving a life.
"What about her father?" the soldiers asked again.
"Sell it to the factory of the Philos family." Riven said.
Anyway, once someone is captured, there is no way to release him, so he must be eradicated. This is the rule of Noxus.
Working as a slave in a factory, at least you won’t die.
And with Mr. Colin's skills, he might be able to do well in the factory.
"That's right." Marit also agreed with Riven's suggestion.
Although Riven was still too kind, the result was very interesting: "Don't you like to shout 'equality'?"
"Then I will make you Riven's slave. You will kneel on the ground and kiss her shoes every day, and call her Master. Haha."
"Uh..." Riven was a little embarrassed.
She really didn't think that much. She took in Orianna as a slave simply to help the girl avoid the worst outcome.
After all, if she was a slave, at least she wouldn't abuse the female slaves like other officers did, like they were toys.
“You’re lucky, girl.” Marit smiled at Orianna.
Lucky? I guess.
As far as the current situation is concerned, being a slave to Riven is really the best outcome for her.
But Orianna remained silent, with a stubborn look on her face, just like a true leader.
"Why?" Marit frowned slightly: "You still don't want to?"
"Orianna..." Mr. Colin spoke. His expression was numb.
Mr. Colin never imagined that his beautiful, wealthy and elegant middle-class life would become what it is today because of the drunken impulse of a few soldiers.
He regretted not listening to his daughter and moving to Zaun in time to join the Leader.
It's too late to say anything now.
He only hoped that the female officer named Riven would be as kind as she looked and give his daughter a chance to live.
So he said, "Orianna, just listen to her..."
"Come with me." Riven also said kindly: "I won't hurt you."
Orianna: “…”
The girl clenched her fists secretly.
She is not an official leader and has no experience in struggle.
She was just a curious girl, an ordinary girl from Piltover who loved music, dancing, and clockwork technology. Facing the powerful Noxian officers, she had no power to fight back.
but……
"I will never be a slave, ever!" Orianna said resolutely.
"I will never let you get what you want and help you devils cover up your scandals!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up resolutely and walked towards the store door and the audience watching from afar outside the store.
"What do you want to do?" Marit frowned.
In fact, she could see that Orianna probably wanted to make some noise before she died, so that the onlookers could see the true face of the Noxian army.
She wanted to use her life to expose the lie of "Pinoy Goodwill".
But… “You’re too weak, girl.”
So weak that it doesn't even have the ability to make a sound.
"Stop her!" Marit winked at the soldiers.
The soldiers immediately rushed forward aggressively, rushing towards Orianna like a pack of wolves hunting sheep.
Orianna was powerless to fight back.
She could only keep moving forward firmly, then close her eyes and pray resolutely:
"Goddess Janna, please bless me."
Orianna didn't know whether praying would help.
After all, she was not yet a leader, or even a wind chaser, and she had never participated in a faith test.
She didn't even know whether she was a follower of Goddess Jana.
Goddess, will you respond to her?
"Winds of change, obey your call."
Suddenly, a voice seemed to come from the void.
What Orianna didn't know was that she was already a follower of Janna.
Not only is she a follower of Janna, but she is also a gifted mage who has yet to awaken.
At this moment, her innate strong mental strength, her willpower that remained high and unyielding after experiencing life and death... yes, willpower. In this world, as long as the will is strong enough, mortals can even compete with the stars.
All these helped her communicate the goddess's will and borrow her divine power.
And this divine power is more than just a breeze.
then……
A strong wind started to blow.
