Chapter 568: Shadow and Trace

For others, a few months may seem like a blink of an eye.

But for Thalia, who stayed with LeBlanc all the time, it seemed like every day was like a year.

From the beginning, when I was unruly and always thinking about escaping,

By now, she no longer had the courage to run away, and she didn't even dare to think about it anymore.

Even now, with just a look from LeBlanc, she will be as obedient as a sheep.

And now...

The "witch" is angry again!

"Just wish yourself good luck."

Glancing at Julian, Thalia gave the man who had personally shown her what war was and how cruel it was a sympathetic look.

but...

Things did not develop as Thalia imagined.

Just when she thought that the angry LeBlanc would teach her a lesson, the man named Julian would also experience a tremor from the depths of his soul,

The dangerous aura disappeared out of thin air in the next second.

Then LeBlanc's voice sounded:

"Are you sure?" Looking at the man in front of her, an inexplicable look flashed in LeBlanc's eyes, and her aura suddenly relaxed.

"Are you sure...that he's from the Wind Control Gym?"

"Yes." Julian, who breathed a sigh of relief, replied aloud: "I can feel the wind-controlling method he used. It is the same as the one named Suma who I fought against at the wind-controlling gym that night.

Commonly used by museum owners."

"..."

LeBlanc's gaze stayed on Julian's face for a moment, and a pair of eyes with an inexplicable look made him a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help but said: "But, madam!"

Recalling every detail of that night, Julian said seriously: "I confirm that I did not let go of any of the people required to be eliminated that night. As for that person, I did not see him in Yufeng Gym.

I have never felt his breath, otherwise I would remember it clearly even though we were far apart."

"I don't want to hear this." Julian was interrupted by LeBlanc,

The woman stood up, supported the table with one hand, and leaned forward slightly, showing her exquisite beauty in the interplay of candle light and shadow.

"The fact is that there was a flaw in your mission, and this flaw caused the empire to suffer heavy losses, wasn't it?"

"..." Her words left Julian speechless, and he could only lower his head in silence, looking slightly depressed.

Seeing this scene, LeBlanc's eyes flashed, and she sighed softly in her heart. She slowly stepped forward and walked towards Julian, and at the same time spoke:

"I think you must have heard a saying-"

"Those who cannot complete their tasks have no value at all, just like the garbage and waste piled up on the roadside."

"And Noxus..."

Walking around behind Julian, LeBlanc's voice rang in his ears,

"Never raise waste."

Like the cold wind outside the felt tent, her voice shocked Yulian's heart and made his hands and feet feel cold.

"I think you should have heard of it. There is even the best example right next to you, Catalina, your little girlfriend, the daughter of the Ducao family."

Pursing his lips, LeBlanc's words reminded Julian unconsciously of his first encounter with Catalina and what happened to her:

Catalina, the proud daughter of the Dukecao family, a genius recognized by the empire,

But even she, after her failure in the mission caused heavy losses, was considered a great shame by her father and even wanted to send someone to get rid of her.

If it were that day,

He was not kicked out by his teammates to patrol the mountains,

If that day, he hadn't discovered her shadow just a second before the sun's afterglow faded,

So this woman who is now regarded as the pride of the empire and respectfully called "the lotus of death, the ominous blade" is already a frozen skeleton in the nameless mountains.

Thinking of this, Yurian felt a chill rise in his head for no reason, and this chill almost made him unable to stand.

He is not afraid of death,

And based on his past achievements, even if he went to the imperial court, he would at most be demoted and not die.

But compared to death,

But there was something extremely fearful in his heart——

That is honor and trust.

Waste is not worthy of honor, let alone trust.

And without these...

The ladder of progress, his vow to Riven, his promise to Katarina, his dreams, ambitions, everything about him————

It will all be a fantasy.

Confusing thoughts filled Julian's mind, making him a little irritable, but he didn't know what to do.

And all this was seen by LeBlanc, who stood in front of him again at some point.

young...

With a chuckle in her heart, LeBlanc's expression on her face was still as cold as ice. She watched the look in Julian's eyes change from panic to overwhelmed, and then when he looked at her with a little pleading in his eyes,

LeBlanc suddenly sighed softly for no reason.

"well--"

The sigh made Yurian's head tighten, but then LeBlanc raised her bare hand and tapped his heart gently, then turned her back to him,

This action made Julian's eyes light up and hope rose in his heart.

"Go, get rid of him," LeBlanc's voice sounded, and as she turned around, Julian's face couldn't help but tremble.

"Use blood and his head to prove your role, to prove that you are still worthy of being 'used', no matter...whatever method you use."

"Anyway! I don't want to hear any more news about him. Can I do it?"

"Yes, ma'am!" Hearing LeBlanc's words, Yulian felt relieved, took a step back slightly, lowered his head and saluted, "I will not let you down."

Having said that, Julian turned around,

But just before he turned around, LeBlanc reached out lightly and grabbed the hem of his clothes.

This move made him freeze in place.

Immediately, a pair of eyes watched blankly as LeBlanc's palm climbed up to the front of his shirt, and then arranged the tie of his collar for him. At the same time, the woman's voice also lost its coldness and became cold.

He softened and said, "Don't make any more mistakes,"

"I can tolerate some mistakes once, but I will never tolerate them a second time, even if it's you!"

"Remember, you represent my face."

"Don't..." After adjusting the laces, the woman's palm gently patted Julian's shoulder, and at the same time, she whispered a warning in his ear:

"Let me down."

"Yes!" With determination and emotion, Julian lowered his head and responded, bowed deeply to LeBlanc, turned around and left the felt tent————

With murderous intent and determination.

Thalia looked puzzled as she watched this process, but with LeBlanc's casual glance, she trembled again and buried her head lower.

"Huh——" The door curtain fluttered, blocking out the cold wind and adding a bit of warmth to the house.

And LeBlanc also sat back on the chair with the candlelight dancing on the pages of the book.

Watching the wind-blown pages of paper turning chaotically to reveal a certain page, a playful look suddenly flashed across her eyes. At an angle that could not be captured, the corners of her mouth curved up in an undetectable arc.

————

"Riwen, female, 21 years old, former deputy captain of the empire's bloody elite force."

"..."

"Confirmed to appear in xx village."
