The Master Behind the Scenes Starting from the Twin Cities
Chapter 2 Choice comes from strength
The noise of the war has passed, and Noxus has won a glorious victory.
Du Kecao's army has won too many such victories, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
As a military mage assigned by the Empire, Ryan sat in his independent tent and prepared a pot of Noxian liquor, as if waiting for some visitors.
Not long after, the curtain was pushed open, and the tall and upright Du Kecao walked in first.
Behind him, followed by Katarina, who looked ashen, as if she had completely lost her previous firm belief.
Ryan admired it for a while, and then focused his eyes on Du Kecao again:
"I brought the liquor from the Immortal Fortress. I heard that General Kecao wanted to drink a glass every time he won."
"You don't look like a Trifarian at all, but like a black rose."
Du Kecao stepped forward, grabbed the wine pot, and happily poured a big gulp into his mouth.
The alcohol burned his throat like a flame. It was definitely the strongest wine in Noxus!
"No one stipulates that all Trifarion are war maniacs, and not all Black Roses are delicate mages." Ryan shrugged his shoulders slightly.
Trifarion was secretly established by his former boss in order to reshape the increasingly corrupt empire of Noxus.
Black Rose was established in the shadows at the beginning of Noxus, and their shadows can be seen in the succession of the empire's throne.
In fact, he had a choice. The Pale Lady of the Black Rose personally invited him. As long as he betrayed his old boss, he could not only join the Black Rose, but also be granted eternal life by her personally.
However, he sincerely admired his old boss. In the Battle of Presidium, when the empire abandoned them and his comrades were almost extinct, he brought himself together to support them and survived with difficulty.
After the memory ended, Ryan looked at Du Kokao with a serious look:
"General Kokao, we Trifali are tired of the internal fighting of the empire, and Noxus should rise!"
Ryan was not originally a Noxian, and he did not even belong to this world.
He traveled to Demacia and Ionia, but Noxus finally accepted him.
This is the best soil for talented people. Whether it is military force, magic, business, politics, or alchemy, as long as it is beneficial to the empire, everything will be accepted.
Noxus determines the class by ability and the height by strength. This alone is enough for Ryan to identify with the empire.
After all, no one would think that he is an incompetent mediocrity.
Du Kokao still gulps down the wine, and as the alcohol is taken in, his expression becomes more and more sober.
Ryan's meaning is very clear. The other party came with Trifali's kind invitation.
Although he is powerful and prominent, he does not need to stand on the side at this time. But in the face of the great changes that the empire is about to usher in, he has to make plans early.
With a decision in mind, Du Kecao glanced at his daughter who was still in a state of daze behind him, and said coldly:
"I am a general who expands the territory. I only obey the orders of the upper echelons of the empire. I came here to say something else."
Ryan also glanced at Katarina, with a smile on his face:
"Please speak."
"I don't need soldiers who act recklessly in my army." Du Kecao's voice was very cold.
After the voice fell, Ryan could clearly feel that Katarina's body was trembling slightly. Maybe she had collapsed in her heart, but because of the harsh training and teaching she had received, she didn't rush out of the door.
Ryan stood in a different position from Katarina, and he knew Du Kecao's meaning very well.
Du Kecao didn't want to take the initiative to stand on the side, but the situation in the empire had reached a serious point. An eldest daughter who was expelled from the family might be the hope of the Kecao family, and there was also a father's expectation for his eldest daughter.
"Trefali doesn't do charity." Ryan smiled.
He was cooperating with the performance of his father, Duke Kao. Although he did not agree with the other party's idea of expecting his children to become successful because of hatred, this was someone else's family affair. The father was willing to be a tool for his daughter's growth, so he could not say anything.
Hearing that she was evaluated by the two like a commodity, Katarina's face was not strange at all. There was no anger or hysteria, but just a little unwillingness at most.
Noxus is like this. The strong decide the fate of the weak, and the strong will not restrict the growth of the weak. Only one's own talent is the best proof of the right.
Here, the frost on the face must cover the cowardice in the heart. Katarina understood this truth when she was 6 years old.
"Recently, Piltover has been a little restless, and the transactions of the imperial nobles have been damaged there. His Majesty the Emperor wants to let me handle it, but I prefer war. Judging from the recent military mobilization of Noxus, it is not possible to go to war with Piltover for the time being." Du Kao said.
He is very interested in going to Piltover to kill and set fire. But if he just goes to Piltover to be a diplomat, it is a complete waste of his time.
What he meant was that he wanted to give up this troublesome job.
This was not just a troublesome job. The Trifaree that Ryan represented needed an excuse. With this excuse, they could control the lifeblood of many nobles.
"Piltover? In recent years, the Hexgate has developed very fast. I really want to meet that Jace Talis. We have accepted this job and Miss Kakao."
Ryan agreed easily. The ending of the Battle of Presidium made him hate war a little. He heard that Piltover was a peaceful city, and it would be nice to go there for a vacation.
However, there was one thing he had to confirm.
"General Kekao, in what name am I this time?"
He pointed at Katarina.
No mistake, read the content of the first post in the book!
"Katrina will be Trifari's subordinate from today on, and there will be no such person in Kekao in the future! I will give you the Kekao family seal, which can represent the will of me and the Kekao family."
Du Kekao said in a cold tone, and then he went out with the remaining wine jug, and seemed unwilling to stay any longer.
After a long while, Ryan stopped playing with the magic badge of the Cocao family with his right hand, and turned to look at Katarina, who had a cold face like his father:
"Ryan Meredith, one of the founders of Trifaree, you should be very familiar with me."
After listening to Ryan's introduction, Katarina moved a little, kneeling on one knee on the ground with her head bowed:
"Every Noxian has heard of your deeds, sir. I am willing to serve you!"
"Get up first."
Ryan waved his hand to signal Katarina to get up, leaning back in the chair and said:
"I have heard countless times when I was in the Immortal Fortress that Katarina is the most talented assassin of the Cocao family, and she will definitely surpass Du Cocao in the future. I really want to hear your opinion on this."
"Just a waste who failed in the first mission." Katarina had a self-deprecating look on her face.
In today's battle, 25 Noxian soldiers were killed by Demetrius, and every life lost was her responsibility.
She had no mercy on life, but she would not deny the mistakes she had made.
"Where do you think the problem lies?" Ryan asked.
"Failed to obey orders. If I do it again, I am confident that I can kill Demetrius." When Katarina mentioned this name, she was full of confidence.
In her eyes, if she did not act on her own, it might be a perfect mission.
"Miss Katarina, I don't think so. We are all Noxians and know each other. Please answer me seriously. What do you think after killing the enemy commander?" Ryan looked at Katarina with indifference.
"I" Katarina opened her mouth slightly, and finally answered dejectedly, "I want to continue to complete the assassination mission."
"Killing the commander is a plus point, and it is definitely not a mistake. And your mistake is only one point."
Ryan didn't finish, but Katarina already understood what he meant. She clenched her fists tightly, with a strong unwillingness in her eyes, but she still took the initiative to make it clear:
"I have made my choice, but I don't have the strength to complete it."
"Very good." Ryan nodded with satisfaction, "Keep this mentality, there will be an airship to pick us up to Piltover tomorrow. There, I hope you can complete your transformation."
"I will follow your arrangements, sir!"
