Runeland: I really know a little bit about everything

"Tomorrow, you must speak up for our child, or I will fight you!"

On this day, the quiet village once again welcomed a rare lively atmosphere.

Everyone went to the council hall in the center of the village, because they all knew that the murderer who killed Elder Suma would be tried here today!

Almost everyone in the village came to the outside of the council hall, and the scene was noisy.

Shava and the Conde couple squeezed through the noisy crowd and came to the front of the group.

After a while, the noise of the crowd gradually subsided, and the door of the parliament hall opened.

It was also at this time that people saw a white-haired girl standing in the center of the parliament hall with her hands and feet shackled.

At the front of the hall, there is a long wooden table, on which lies a broken giant sword made up of many fragments.

However, a small piece of the blade of the giant sword seemed to be missing, which made the giant sword no longer complete.

Behind the long sword was the chairman of this abbot's trial.

"Boom!"

The gavel struck the base with a loud sound, and the parliament hall fell completely silent.

As Riven's only relatives, Conde and Shava sat on one side of the hall, waiting to be summoned. On the other side of the hall was the cavalry captain who took Riven away.

"The purpose of this court session is to examine the latest clues regarding Elder Suma's death!"

The chairman's voice echoed throughout the hall, and there was a commotion among the crowd below.

As for the death of Elder Suma, everyone thought it was Yasuo who was responsible. After all, Elder Suma died from the Wind Sword, and in the entire Ionia, only Yasuo mastered the Wind Sword.

But if that is the case, then who is this girl standing in the hall now?

"This court seeks knowledge and enlightenment, the truth behind Elder Suma's death, and the way to balance in Ionia!"

The chairman continued: "Now, the trial begins!"

Riven stood in the middle of the hall, looking at the noisy crowd around her, her heart as calm as a dead pond.

She knew what she looked like in the eyes of these people.

A woman with prison straw stuck to her white hair.

stranger.

enemy.

A warrior of Noxus.

A deep drowsiness gripped Riven, and she felt confused and helpless.

However, when her eyes swept over the Shava and Conde couple on one side of the hall, she straightened her back a little.

"What's your name!" came the chairman's voice.

"Riven!" Riven's voice was a little hoarse, as if her throat was strangled by a pair of big hands.

The chairman of the meeting said again: "You were summoned by this court because I want to hear your words!"

There was a flash of obvious surprise in Riven's eyes. She looked up at the chairman of the meeting who was wearing an official uniform and asked doubtfully, "Am I not going to be sentenced to death?"

"!?"

The surprise in the chairman's eyes was even more obvious than that in Riven's.

But she still said: "I'm not sure how you enforce justice in Noxus, but here, we believe that justice first requires understanding and enlightenment."

The magistrate spoke to Riven as if he were talking to a child. "We believe you have the true information about the death of Elder Suma, and this information is important to all of us. Only when the true cause of the elder's death is revealed, can we determine the sentence and punishment."

Listening to the chairman's words, Riven pursed her cracked lips.

Just as the chairman said, the way Noxus judges criminals is really completely different from here.

Noxus advocates the use of force, and the trial of criminals is basically carried out in the reckoning grounds.

For those cruel executioners, they don’t care whether you are really wronged or not, and even the onlookers will not pay attention.

But in Ionia, Riven really felt something completely different.

"The steward who was in charge of helping Elder Su Ma to sort out the body found this fragment from Elder Su Ma's neck! And this fragment is exactly the missing piece from your broken sword!"

"Riven, tell me, I want to know the real cause of Elder Suma's death!"

The chairman's majestic voice sounded again. At this time, the entire conference hall was eerily quiet, and everyone focused their eyes on Riven.

In the dead silence, Savana's voice, with a hint of tears, sounded faintly:

"Chairman, this must be a misunderstanding. How could my child be a murderer?"

"Quiet, Aunt Shava, I want to hear Riven speak for herself!" The chairman banged the gavel and signaled Riven to continue speaking.

Riven glanced at Shava and Conde, who were sitting on the side with sad faces, and said softly, "It was me who killed Elder Suma."

"Wow~!"

In an instant, the dead silence in the entire hall was completely broken, and people were looking at Riven in the hall with extremely hateful eyes.

No one will forget that it was because Elder Suma was killed that the village lost its shelter, which led to the successful invasion of the Noxian army into the village, and their children also died in the war to defend their country.

"Riven, I need to know the specific situation at that time!" The chairman looked directly into Riven's eyes and continued to wait for her next words.

Riven shook her head slowly, as if she was completely relieved and didn't want to continue avoiding the mistakes she had made.

"Many people died that day. Ionians. Noxians. My friends."

Riven seemed to be trapped in some extremely painful memories: "I hate Noxus. I don't want to have anything to do with Noxus anymore. I want to destroy this blade that represents my past!"

"So, I came to the village and found Elder Suma."

At this point, the noisy crowd quieted down and listened carefully to Riven's story.

"I beg Elder Suma to help me destroy this giant sword. I really just wanted to destroy this sword!"

"Elder Suma agreed, right?" asked the chairman.

"The elder agreed." Riven said softly, "He said he would help me destroy this blade."

"The violent gust of wind swept through the entire room. I had never seen such powerful swordsmanship. The dense vortex of wind gathered on my sword, and cracks began to appear on it. Finally, it completely shattered, but..."

Having said this, Riven's body began to tremble slightly, and she seemed unable to control her emotions.

"Even though this giant sword enchanted by the witch was damaged, its fragments still carried tremendous power, and I watched helplessly as the broken sword fragments flew toward Elder Suma's throat."

"!!!"

At this time, people also knew why Elder Su Ma died from the Gale Sword Technique and why the broken sword fragments appeared in Elder Su Ma's throat.

"Ugh!"

With a long sigh, Shava and Kongde slumped in their chairs, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes.

They are not sighing that their children are murderers, but sighing that their children may suffer endless pain.

"Riven, is everything you just said true?" The chairman's voice sounded again.

Riven looked at Shava and Conde beside her, with a deep reluctance in her eyes.

But in the end, she nodded.

"Boom!"

The gavel struck upon its pedestal once more, and the voice of the chairman's verdict echoed throughout the hall.

"Imprison the criminal Riven in prison. This time tomorrow, this court will announce the verdict on her!"

The villagers left while talking to each other. Shava and the Conde couple were the last to leave, and they seemed to be discussing some incredible plan.

After everyone left, only two figures covered in cloaks were left outside the hall.

"younger brother."

Yongen's voice rang out, and he looked at his younger brother beside him.

On Yongen's side, Yasuo's eyes were always following Riven, even until she was escorted back to the cell, Yasuo's eyes were still looking in that direction.

After a long time, Yasuo looked at Yongen beside him. His hands were tightly grasping the Wind Blade, and his usually resolute face was now full of struggle.

All the sufferings that I have experienced in the past were caused by the figure in front of me.

But is it really all her fault?

"Brother, I..."

Yongen placed his hand heavily on Yasuo's shoulder and whispered, "Yasuo, do what your heart tells you!"

Yongen looked in the direction where Riven disappeared, and at the same time he was filled with endless shock.

He was actually right.

"That person seems to know everything."

Chapter 55 Yasuo’s Relief!

(Ten thousand rewards plus more)

About a day ago, Zuo Chi and Ali followed the pre-planned route all the way to the edge of Navoli Province.

It was also here that they saw the girl being escorted by a group of cavalry.

Looking at the girl who was completely locked up, Zuo Chi couldn't help but sigh.

It was also at that time that he and Ahri found the two brothers Yasuo and Yone who had been wandering around the village.

"Yasuo, go back to the village, maybe your knot in your heart will be untied."

At night, the full moon in the night sky is surrounded by a cold halo.

Moonlight poured into the cell through the open door, casting a furtive shadow in the corridor in front of Riven's cell.

Riven's hands and feet were chained, and she knelt in the middle of the messy thatch with her eyes closed, thinking. Suddenly, Riven opened her eyes and looked forward.

"Dad, what are you doing here?"

"Shh!"

Outside Riven's cell, Kong De held a soft cloth bag in his hand and sneakily came to the door of Riven's cell.
