Chapter 649: Demacia lacks a path to rise
You probably guessed that it is the Demacia capital city called the Forbidden Magic Stone, which is actually made of stone that stores magic power. The thing below should be the world rune.
But even though you feel your heart palpitating, you know there is absolutely nothing you can do.
If you say it out loud, you will definitely end up in a bad situation, because you already know very well that all the good things in Demacia are built on the fact that you are an ordinary person.
The magician was not among them.
Any magician in Demacia will be detained and arrested.
Even if you didn't do anything.
In the fifth year, the noble who had visited you before came again, but this time he brought another person with him. That person's surname was also Mianwei. He asked you more questions in a friendly manner, as well as questions about arithmetic - that is, questions about the book he gave you last time.
You continued to answer questions fluently, which made the two nobles very happy.
They gave you more money and books, but your parents saved the money and prepared to give it to you later instead of using it to improve your life.
In the sixth year, you feel yourself getting stronger and stronger. Now even your twelve-year-old brother can't compare with you in strength, and your appetite also starts to increase.
Your parents are happy but also worried.
After all, the ability of a couple is limited.
You quietly reduced your food consumption, and when no one was around, absorbed the world's magic to replenish the energy you needed for growth.
This is not difficult to do, because you can observe that people in this world need to absorb magical energy to grow, and you are just increasing the absorption and use of energy.
Surprisingly, you did this with ease.
Although you believed that you would succeed, you never thought that you would succeed in less than a week.
But you still didn't try to condense even a fireball or something like that, because you knew one thing very well.
Once it is discovered that you have magic, your happy family will disappear in an instant!
But your parents think you are eating less to save money at home, so your father plans to make some handicrafts and sell them.
In the seventh year, you learned from the village chief that if you wanted to learn more knowledge, you had to go to a church school, but that required tuition fees and most of the students were high-ranking officials.
Or you can join the army. Demacia's military training system has a special system to teach and train people.
Even at your age, you can join the army.
Of course, he joined the army as an attendant, and usually did things like wiping armor, helping in the kitchen, and assisting in feeding horses.
But they will not have to worry about food and clothing, and will receive more training and instruction.
All of this is free, but it does come at a cost.
You must become a soldier of Demacia.
There are other ways to acquire knowledge, but they all require one thing.
Money and relationships.
Although your family is wealthy, it obviously does not have enough money to send you to a church school or a private school.
Or maybe there is a noble who values you and wants to make you his follower and subordinate.
In your eyes, this is a serious lack of upward mobility, but ordinary farmers don't care about this.
You thought about it and felt that it would be okay to cling to the Mianwei family.
But when you told your parents about this, your parents hugged you.
"No, kid, you're too young."
"Yes, you should stay with us and enjoy a normal childhood."
Their smiles were somewhat forced, because they had already given you the best conditions possible, but they found that they still could not satisfy their children.
This makes them feel embarrassed and uneasy.
But you know, they really can't bear to part with any of you children, and they are really worried that bad things will happen to you when you are young.
"When you are older, mom and dad won't stop you."
The noble who came this year said the same thing, but he left you more books and money, and even left you some parchment, and told your parents that if any of your children wanted to join the army, they should contact him directly and he would arrange it.
Your parents are very happy.
And your fifteen-year-old eldest brother followed directly.
In the eighth year, you found that your body was getting stronger and stronger, and you began to help with housework. In your spare time, you would go to the lake to think about problems and think about stories on parchment.
And this year, your village welcomed a group of refugees from various countries in the Valoran Plains. The countries of these refugees had been conquered by Noxus.
Your village welcomed them, and their children looked at your clothes and food with envy, but soon they were no longer envious, because everyone in the village gave them some food and supplies, making them rich overnight.
Only the scars on their bodies, their still skinny bodies, and the way they wolfed down their meals could explain what they had experienced.
You asked them about their experiences and learned that life in Demacia seemed like heaven to them, with low taxes, fertile land, and no need to worry about a magician performing a blood sacrifice on them at the drop of a button.
There was almost no corvée labor. Although the nobles were arrogant and paid little attention to the common people, they rarely killed or bullied common people .
You thought about it for a long time, and at the cost of bringing their children into this group, you let them tell stories around them, and then adapted a book in your memory based on the story told by their family about a neighbor who tried hard to be a slave of the nobles of the original country and then died miserably in the invasion of Noxus.
Uncle Tom's Cabin.
The book originally described how miserable black people were, how they worked hard but still could not have freedom or a good end. However, through your adaptation, it became a story about how people from other small countries could not have freedom or a good end under the abuse of Noxus.
When you "wrote" this story and handed it to the noble named Mianwei, he didn't care at first and even thought you were wasting parchment.
But after reading the whole story, he immediately decided to report it so that the head of the family could accept you as a retainer of the Mianwei family!
Your parents were almost crazy with joy. They no longer said anything about waiting for you to grow up. They watched with satisfaction as you were taken to Demacia by the noble named Crown Guard. The closer you got to Demacia, the closer you felt to the bomb.
And the moment you saw the white city wall, you finally confirmed one thing.
The bomb that you have sensed since childhood is about to explode.
It is indeed the capital of Demacia!
He's about to explode!
