"You are exposed!"

"The people of the empire have discovered your location and have begun to surround and arrest you. In order not to alert others, the nearest scout is still twenty miles away.

But the passages and passes that connect Dalmo and the Noxian Plains,

They have all been firmly controlled by the soldiers of the Empire's 19th Corps, known as the "Iron Will". The person in charge of planning the operation is General Korrac.

If nothing unexpected happens, the people in your company will discover the traces of the scouts who explored the road in a day.

And the imperial army will definitely arrive here within three days."

"so……"

"Run away!"

Facing the three people in the tent, Decius told them the information he knew with a serious expression, and this information was also exchanged for a long silence in the tent.

"Crack!" The fire burning in the brazier in the center of the tent flickered slightly, and the burnt charcoal tipped over, making a small crisp sound. It was this crisp sound that broke the deadlock of silence for who knows how long.

"Your Majesty Decius from the Immortal Fortress, um... thank you for traveling thousands of miles to deliver such important information to me."

"As for your mother, Ms. Queletta. I have had some interactions with her in Ionia, and I admire her greatly for her wisdom and courage. And in you, I see a talent that is not inferior to hers.

Blazing light." Slowly waking up from his meditation, Swain's red eyes turned slightly and fell on Decius's young and handsome face.

After Julian's words revealed the identity of the other party, Swain followed the dusty memory of the past and recalled the female officer with whom he had a chance encounter————

This was in the early days of the Ionian War, when Swain was the commander-in-chief of the Ionian Expeditionary Force, and Queletta commanded half of the Ironclads in his expeditionary force responsible for southern Navoli.

Some wars in the region,

It was also at that time that he met the legendary female general who was childhood sweethearts of the Hand of Noxus and the Glory Executioner of the Empire. During the brief exchange with her, Swain clearly saw her more beautiful side.

Wisdom is better than beauty.

Unfortunately, their interaction was short-lived. Due to an ambush soon after, the Ironclad Army was seriously injured and was transferred from the battlefield. Queletta also returned to the Immortal Fortress with the army to recuperate due to serious injuries.

Now, looking at the young Decius, Swain was sure that he could vaguely see some hints of Queletta in his handsome appearance, and he also saw a courage that was not inferior to his wisdom - to attack the 'enemy' alone.

Camping, laughing and chatting, not everyone can do it, right?

"Well... even though I should have called everyone to leave here immediately after learning about your information. But - I want you to know that I am the leader of everyone. Any decision I make,

It means the life and death of hundreds of people.

Therefore, before making any decision, I need sufficient intelligence support. So... if it is not offensive, can I ask you some questions? "

"Of course." Hearing the distrust hidden in Swain's words, Decius was not angry, nor did he mean to hide anything, and nodded openly.

"Um…"

"Well first I have a question."

Seeing Decius' magnanimity, Swain was a little more convinced of him, but he still asked the biggest doubt in his mind at the moment: "According to the imperial military regulations, any plan decision involving major interests and casualties is

, it is necessary to clarify the ownership of command authority before taking action, and keep confidentiality as the first priority. You said that Korlac is the person in charge of the plan, but based on my understanding of him, he is loyal, cautious, and steady in his actions.

Covet for credit.

For those who single-handedly sabotaged the execution day ceremony, they would be extremely careful to prevent any information from leaking out before implementing their plan.

In this case, even if your mother, Ms. Queletavaine, is a general of the empire, she would not be able to directly obtain such important information, so why can you clearly know the secret?"

Swain's words revealed the doubts of several people present.

Including Julian, after hearing what Decius said, his first reaction after being shocked was great disbelief, but Decius opposite seemed to have expected it, with a slight smile on his face.

meaning.

"Haha." With a chuckle, Decius glanced at Julian, and then back to Swain. Shi Shiran said: "Such an important plan should not be known to outsiders.

In fact, all my actions are based on General Korlak’s guesses about the frequent movements of the corps in recent days, but I am convinced that my guesses will be the reality in the near future!”

"Oh? I'd love to hear the details!"

"Well..." With his head held high, Decius raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing his strong self-confidence to the people in the tent: "Although I can't get accurate information, I do know General Korlac's

The Iron Regiment was supposed to be ordered to move north after the middle of last month, and follow the river network upstream to the Iron Thorn Mountains to join the 'Iron Armored Army' stationed there to jointly resist the attack from the Freljord people in the north.

,

But to this day, General Korrac's Nineteenth Army has not yet left the Immortal Fortress.

It was claimed that there were deviations in the allocation of materials prepared for the Iron Armored Army on the northern front, but in fact the materials for the 19th Army had been prepared as early as the beginning of last month, but in the past half month, the camp has been secretly making frequent arrangements.

On the surface, in order to cover up these actions, Korlak chose a person who could make both him and the Iron Armored Army extremely trustful to go to Iron Thorn Mountain to report the situation.

As luck would have it, General Korrac chose me because of my old acquaintance with my mother.

What's even more coincidental is that the commander of the armored army, General Darius, who is known as the 'Hand of Noxus' - he,

"It's my father."

'Your father!?'

‘General Darius has a son?

'Or by Ms. Queletta?'

As soon as this secret came out, not only Swain, but also Julian was stunned on the spot, eyes full of disbelief.

Regarding Ms. Queletta, he considered himself to be the one who knew her story better.

Julian knew that Ms. Queletta and General Darius were childhood sweethearts, and also knew that Ms. Queletta and General Darius were married, but————

Regardless of the stories circulated in the world or the several conversations between Julian and Queletta, I have never heard from the other party about having children, especially someone like Decius who looks much younger than him.

How many people are so wise and courageous?

In a place like Noxus that valued talents, Julian could not imagine how he could hide it for so many years without any news leaking out.

But it seems that it’s okay not to believe it,

Decius' eyebrows and some lines on his face really allowed him to see the shadow of Ms. Queletta, and
