Prince Jarvan stepped forward, just like Jarvan III, placed a hand on his heart, and said in a deep voice, "Greetings, Lady Soraka!"
"You are the future Jarvan IV... the prince of Demacia. You look just like your father when he was young, just as strong and just as resolute."
"Thank you for your praise, Lady Soraka. I will definitely work hard to make Demacia even stronger!"
“It’s clear you have your own ambitions, which is good, Your Majesty Jarvan III. You have a good son.”
"Yes, he is my pride, and a continuation of my life..."
A hint of pride flashed in Prince Jarvan's eyes, but he would not be arrogant. He would only be more strict with himself, after all, he had sworn before the gods to make Demacia better, and this was not just empty talk.
Jarvan III smiled and said, "These two, please allow me to introduce them. These two are the most renowned and valiant warriors among Demacia's most valiant warriors. This is Xin Zhao, the steward of my Lightshield family, and also the Grand Steward of Demacia!"
Zhao Xin stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Greetings, Lady Soraka! I am honored to witness Lady Soraka's divine presence."
“Zhao Xin... I’ve heard that you once ended up in the Noxian gladiator arena. I’ve heard of you; you’re a powerful warrior. You now have your own glory, not to be a gladiator. This is the path you’ve chosen.”
"Yes, it is an honor to be known by Lady Soraka. I will defend this path of glory with my life!"
Jarvan III smiled and nodded, saying, "This is Garen, the paragon of the Crownguard family, a hero of the Demacian people and army, known as the Might of Demacia."
Garen said in a deep voice, "Greetings, Lady Soraka."
“Garen…I’ve heard of you too…Your reputation in this land is enough to make you a star of Demacia….”
"Thank you for your praise, Lady Soraka! Please forgive my aunt, as the current head of the Crownguard family has not come to pay her respects. She is still teaching my mischievous younger sister."
"Let me guess... Laksana, Laksana Crownguard, right?"
Garen was taken aback for a moment, then said with some surprise, "Lord Soraka, you actually know her?! She'll be very happy to know!"
"Yes, I've heard of her. She's the apple of the eye of the Crownguard family. I've heard of many people from Demacia on the merchant ship that came here, including her, of course."
Garen nodded in realization and said, "If it's just some anecdote, please don't take it to heart, Lady Soraka. She's spoiled by her family. She might even be excited to talk to you if she knew that you knew her."
"Isn't this great? Girls should be lively and cheerful. To be honest, I'm really looking forward to meeting her."
“You wouldn’t say that if you knew what she did.”
"Huh? I'd like to hear the details."

Chapter 314 The Girls of Demacia, the Curious Lux (Please subscribe!)
Upon hearing this, Akali became somewhat serious. Their primary target was Lux. If they knew what Lux had done, things would be much easier, and they would gain a better understanding of Lux as a person.
Upon hearing Garen's words, Jarvan III and the others smiled and shook their heads as if they knew what Garen was going to say. Garen sighed and said, "Lady Soraka, you may not know, Lux... is Luxana, we all call her Lux."
"Lux... Hmm! That's a very affectionate way to address her."
"Yes, just as she said, she is full of enthusiasm and friendliness towards everyone, and she is also full of curiosity about nature. Sometimes she will even abandon business and go to the neighborhood to stare at a citrus fruit for a long time."
Soraka said with a smile, "A girl who is full of longing for nature and as warm and enthusiastic as the sun is very likable."
"Yes, you're right, but because of this, she's full of questions about the world. Her family hired all sorts of teachers for her—business, music, etiquette, and so on—but..."
"How about it?"
"She bombarded the teachers with questions so much that they needed to be examined for mental illness. Her questions were endless, bizarre, and many were simply incomprehensible. The teachers were all afraid of her, but she was also very passionate about learning, and the teachers liked her attitude, so..."
Soraka laughed and said, "Interesting girl, what did she ask?"
Garen thought for a moment and said, "I remember she once asked her etiquette teacher, and this is what she asked... Teacher, I want to know why we must hold the fork in our left hand and the knife in our right? Why are the forks made of silver? Why can't we just use the fork to pick up food?"
"Why is the fork shaped like this? Who thought of making it this way? And the knife? Why can't this knife be used to kill enemies? Why is a fork called a dinner fork and a dinner knife called a dinner knife? Why is a knife called a knife? Who mined the ore? Who refined it? How was it refined? Why did they think of refining it?"
Akali's eyes twitched, and she suddenly felt a little sorry for Lux's private tutor. He really had to know everything from astronomy to geography, from two thousand years ago to two thousand years later, and be knowledgeable in all fields such as music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, so that he wouldn't be afraid of Lux's questions.
Soraka laughed and said, "An interesting girl... To be honest, I'm getting more and more interested in her. Rumor has it that there's a girl in Demacia with a voice that can amaze people, named Sona."
"There's also Fiora, the peerless rose whose swordsmanship is like art, Poppy who protects peace with her warhammer, and now there's Luxana... Demacia is truly a land that produces many interesting girls."
Jarvan III chuckled and said, "Yes, you're right. Besides, there's the heroine Tiana Crownguard, and Shauna Vayne, the Demacian judge who punishes evil..."
Soraka nodded and said, "I know Shauna Wayne. She's a poor girl, but she seems to be traveling around purifying the wicked who are addicted to darkness and evil. She's different from me; she eliminates, I guide them towards goodness... but I don't object to her actions."
Just as Jarvan III was about to say something, he heard Soraka say gently, "Akali, you can take off your hood now. We don't need to hide our identities anymore."
After Akali removes her hood, her exquisite eye makeup reveals indifferent yet sharp eyes. Her long black hair has a unique hairstyle, and a green mask obscures her face. However, one thing is certain: she is a beautiful but thorny rose who is not to be trifled with.
Akali said softly, "I am Akali, sent by Lord Karma the Enlightened One to protect and assist Lady Soraka."
The group nodded in agreement. Karma's recommendation was certainly correct, as Karma was a person respected by most people.
Zhao Xin narrowed his eyes and said, "I have heard that the land of Ionia, the land of birth, is full of outstanding people and has a behemoth-like sect, the Order of Balance. Every follower believes in balance, and the leader, Grandmaster Shen, is extremely powerful."
"Among them are three: Master Shen is known as the Eye of Twilight, a person who controls the power of lightning is known as the Heart of the Berserker, and a Shadow Fist that exists in the shadows and is as deadly as the Iron Fist of the Order of the Balance."
"Rumor has it that this generation's Fist of Shadow has broken away from the Order of the Kinkou, but she still maintains the peace of the First Lands, silently reaping all enemies who threaten this land with her immense power. She is a terrifying nightmare for her enemies. I think her name is Akali..."
Akali nodded and said, "Yes, it's me..."
Zhao Xin said with a sudden realization, "I didn't expect that. I thought you would be at least thirty years old to have such strength. I underestimated you. I didn't expect that the famous nightmare of Ionia's enemies, the Rogue Assassin, is actually just such a young girl."
"Thank you."
Akali doesn't talk much, and she doesn't even show any emotional changes, but no one says anything. It's normal for such a skilled person, especially a ninja or assassin, to have such a cool and aloof personality. It would be abnormal if she were very enthusiastic.
Jarvan III smiled and said, "I express my gratitude on behalf of the people of Demacia. Lady Soraka, your and Miss Akali's accommodations are ready. Would you like to rest there for a while, or would you like to proceed to the banquet hall now?"
“We are not tired, and besides, it would be bad to keep so many people waiting for us.”
"You are still as approachable as ever."
"This, I think, will never change..."
Jarvan III nodded and said softly, "Please, I will personally lead the way for you two."
"Thank you."
Meanwhile, on the other side, Tiana looked at Lux, who was still having her hair fixed by a maid, and said with a smile, "Lux, judging from your expression, you seem to be looking forward to seeing Lady Soraka?"
"Yes, I have never met Lady Soraka before. To be honest, I am really looking forward to talking to Lady Soraka."
"Oh! You little rascal, you must rein in your temper! Don't keep asking Lady Soraka all sorts of questions! That would be extremely rude!"
"Oh!"

Chapter 315 Fiona's Plan, the Peerless Swordswoman's Aspirations (Please Subscribe~)
The Bouvier family on the other side was just as lively. At this moment, a beautiful woman who was well-maintained stood behind Sona and looked at her with a smile.
"Mother, will Lady Soraka be a gentle person?"
There were only Sona and her mother in the room, so Sona naturally had no worries. She couldn't go to the shop during this time, so she could only practice the piano in the morning, have afternoon tea and chat with Lux in the afternoon, and chat with her mother when she came back in the evening.
Although there are few people, Sona's real social circle is actually only this many, with Fiona at most. Fiona occasionally asks her to go to the Laurent family to be her "energy bank"... no... to replenish her spirit.
Sona felt her life was fulfilling. She could speak, had several good friends with whom she shared secrets, her mother was kind to her, the residents were kind to her, her friends were kind to her, and she could even improve her meals at a very low price. Her own little savings could feed her for a lifetime.
And so, Sona could have her own hobbies, her own friends, her own secrets, and every day was something to look forward to. Sona's mother said gently, "Yes, Lady Soraka is very gentle and beautiful, just like my Sona."
"Mother, you still treat me like a child..."
Mrs. Bouvier said with a smile, "In my eyes, Sona, you'll always be a child..."
Sona breathed a sigh of relief and continued tying her hair. Mrs. Bouvier came over and tied Sona's hair, while Sona checked her makeup. The mother and daughter were in perfect harmony.
"Master, would you like a carriage to pick you up later?"
Fiona shook her head and said softly, "No need. I have other things to take care of after the party. Don't prepare breakfast for me tomorrow either. I'm going to see Lady Soraka."
"Yes! Master, would you like to take your sword with you?"
Fiona thought for a moment before shaking her head and saying, "It's unnecessary. Apart from Lord Soraka's attendants and Lord Soraka herself, it's best not to bring weapons. How's business at home lately?"
“Very good. Especially after the news that Lady Soraka was coming, the family business has improved a lot recently. What are your orders, patriarch?”
Fiona thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow, take out some money and prepare more water and bread."
"Hmm? Master, what are you doing?"
Fiona said softly, "Tomorrow, Lord Soraka will be treating and guiding the people in Xiongdu. It will be very lively then. Many healthy people will go for check-ups and receive guidance, and many parents will take their children out, hoping to receive blessings so that their children can grow up healthy and intelligent."
"That's for sure, it will be very chaotic then."
"Yes, Lady Soraka will have everyone line up and come in an orderly manner, so that no one will leave their place, because leaving means going to the very end of the line."
“That’s right, they will wait until Lady Soraka heals them.”
Fiona said softly, "So, many people won't think of this. They've waited all day, and they must be thirsty and hungry. They'll have their families deliver water and bread to the residents of Xiongdu. Soup is unnecessary."
The man suddenly realized and said, "Oh! I understand! This way, we can give the Laurent family a very good impression in the hearts of the people. After all, no matter how little or ordinary the goods are, it is still sacrificing the family's opportunity to serve the people. The Laurent family's business will be even better in the future!"
Fiona nodded and said, "That's right... Remember, you must remember to prepare soup for Lady Soraka. It doesn't matter if Lady Soraka doesn't drink it. If she doesn't drink it, then give it to the elderly. Two pots are enough for the children and the wounded."
The man nodded and said, "Master, you are indeed far-sighted."
"To restore the glory of the Laurent family, the trust of the people is essential. Moreover, I will be inviting Lady Soraka, so there is no need to rush. Furthermore, as nobles, we must set an example."
"Yes! But, Patriarch, what if the Crown Guard family, the royal family, and the Bouvier family were to do the same?"
Fiona said softly, "So, two pots of soup are enough. In the end, no one is stupid. And doing good is always more comforting than doing bad. No one doesn't understand this, especially nobles who need the people."
"understood!"
After the man left, Fiona murmured, "The Crown Guard family, the Light Shield family, the Bouvier family... I wonder what changes will occur in Xiongdu after today..."
Fiona took a sip of red wine as she spoke, and then thrust her longsword forward, even though she had exquisite makeup, a beautiful hairstyle, a gorgeous dress, and was even wearing very high heels.
This still doesn't stop her from showcasing her unique charm, nor does it stop her from practicing her already perfect swordsmanship. It's worth mentioning that there's a large mirror in front of her.
She placed this mirror after returning from Bai Yu's shop. She used it to observe herself. The peerless rose of the Laurent family not only needs to be good at attacking, but also needs to have perfect defense, that is, no matter what, there will be no flaws in the eyes of the enemy.
Swish!
Fiona sheathed her sword, breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the mirror, turned slightly to look at her perfect figure, and then smiled and leaned forward to look at her exquisite face.
Fiona reached up and touched her delicate cheek, her red lips, painted with lipstick, slightly upturned, exuding indescribable beauty. Fiona murmured, "As expected... still beautiful..."
Fiona was, after all, just an ordinary girl, and naturally she cared about her appearance. After looking at herself for a while, Fiona whispered, "Bai Yu... the first man who made me fail... I must conquer you! I must!"
Fiona tossed her longsword aside, turned, and walked away, leaving behind only the words: "The first man the Peerless Swordswoman has ever admired...you can't get rid of me! Not with swordsmanship or with looks!"

Chapter 316 Dekkera Discovers Something Absurd, Kasugano Sora (Please Subscribe~)
At this time, Shiraha had already gone to prepare dinner. Hori Kyoko and the others were naturally invited to stay by Kasugano Sora. These girls were quite regulars, so they didn't refuse. Sota was overjoyed.
It wasn't just because there was a big meal; the more important reason was that he could finally watch all the cartoons! But the most crucial point was that he had never had such a lively meal before.
Hori Kyoko and the others simply stopped studying altogether. Yoshikawa Yuki said confidently, "Great! I've figured out so many things. I'll definitely be fine for the final exams this time!"
Hori Kyoko casually said, "You didn't have any problems to begin with, did you?"
"I mean, there's absolutely no problem with making progress. I just realized that many problems actually have such simple solutions, and they're easy to remember."
Asuna Yuuki nodded and said, "Yeah, that makes sense. I also feel that problems that I used to struggle with can now be solved with certainty. Manager Shiraha is really amazing."
Hinami Aoi propped her chin on her hand and glanced at Yuuki Asuna, saying, "Asuna, why do I feel like you're much calmer than you are today? It doesn't make sense."
Asuna Yuuki paused for a moment before saying in confusion, "Huh? Shouldn't I be calm?"
"That shouldn't be!" x4
Kasugano Sora asked in confusion, "Huh? What are you talking about? Why is Asuna so agitated...?"
Nanami Fukami smiled and said, "It's just..."
"Shut up!"
“Hey.…”x4
Before Nanami Mika could finish speaking, she saw Yuuki Asuna's face turn red and called her to stop. Hori Kyoko and the others also looked at Yuuki Asuna with mischievous smiles.
Asuna Yuuki was perfectly aware that she had been tricked, and she looked at the group of people in front of her with a resentful expression. Kasugano Sora was about to speak when she heard footsteps. She glanced at the time and said in surprise, "Eh?! It's already so late!"
Aoi Hinami said irritably, "What time do you think it is...?"
