Chapter 308: Demon Seeker

Lucian had sent many mages to leave Demacia before, so he knew that many mages were innocent.

Their magical talent is naturally awakened, and it is not voluntarily infected with magic. They did not use magic to do bad things. Even if there is one, it is mostly because they cannot control this power and mistakenly regard the gift as a curse. But the search for demons is either black or white, and as long as they possess magic, they will be considered sinners.

It was not the first time Lucian did to help the mage live outside the border. Logically speaking, he was already familiar with the road, but this time he escorted Sona out of the city, which made him feel unprecedented uneasiness.

When he was about to arrive at Bouville's mansion, a team of demon-searchers came towards him, without any intention of getting out of the way.

Lucian stopped, his lips pursed, and was ready to face them.

The person who led the team was a short-haired woman wearing a white outfit and blue vest of the Magic Man, and a half-brass mask on her face covering her forehead and cheeks on her right.

"Sorry, I'm disturbing. It takes a little time for you. Please cooperate with the searching. Every Demacian is no exception..." While speaking, the Demon Search took down a spiral emblem on his waist. This is the credential for the Searching Demon Searching Demon.

Lucian and Sena looked at each other and slowly spread their arms. The two soldiers walked up to him, pressed their hands on his shoulder and leaned down, not letting go of any corner. Sena on the other side searched the demon again, because they were all female.

Senna closed her eyes all the way, and the searching demons felt a little strange. They were never loved or admired, so people always opened their eyes very humiliatedly when they were searched, as if they wanted to scare them off and let them know that they were normal people who were not defiled.

When the searcher didn't find anything, some people would leave a proud look, as if calling them a blind dog, and then swelling up.

Senna's behavior was a bit abnormal, but she searched for the demons on her but did not find any suspicious items. As for why her attitude was so unique, it might be because she was not a resident of Xiongdu, so she didn't look like the clothes.

"Sir, I've discovered it."

The soldiers next to him seemed to have found suspicious items, and the searcher did not waste time on Sena. Before she turned around, Sena opened her eyes, and a green and broken evil light flashed through the depths of her pupils.

A pair of strange objects were found on the body of soldier Lucian. Brass-colored metal was slinging with several objects that looked like carved stone. The shape was a bit similar to Piltwolf's gun, but this thing was completely solid and it was impossible to fire bullets.

"What is this?" The Demon Searcher first pointed at Poluo in Lucian's hand.

"pet."

Poluo stretched out his tongue to lick the emblem on the demon's hand. The latter frowned and took it away, and pointed at the two guns and asked Lucian.

“What about this?”

"Just collectibles."

"Since it is a collectible, shouldn't it be put in the box? What does it mean to wear it on your waist?"

Lucian pointed to his gun holster: "They should have been placed in it, but I heard that soldiers in some places would snatch good things when they see them."

"Demacia is fair and just, it is impossible for such a thing to happen." After the Demon Searcher finished speaking with a stern face, he still put his emblem close to the twin guns without much belief, as if he was detecting something. After waiting for a while, he saw nothing happened, and finally returned the twin guns to Lucian and left with the two soldiers.

"..." Lucian was not happy because he escaped the disaster. Senna only sighed relieved when she watched the demon-searcher disappear into her sight: "Fortunately this is a holy stone weapon, not a staff or something."

The emblem in the hands of the Demon Searcher is the lime mark of the forbidden magic, which can sense magic. This time it was the special nature of the holy stone weapon that saved them. This weapon can only be driven by faith and emit the power of holy light. In normal conditions, it is nothing like a stone, and to put it bluntly, it is mental power. Everyone has this thing, so it will naturally not be detected.

They came to Bouville's mansion. After Marshal Barrett Bouville's death, Mrs. Lestara announced that her family's library would be opened to the public and shared knowledge free of charge so that civilians could also browse the aristocratic collections.

Barrett was loved during his lifetime and made selfless contributions after his death. There were many people who came to read books or mourn Barrett, so there were many people in the mansion at all times. The searching for demons also came because of this. They were worried that there were some ulterior motives in the library to describe magic in ambiguous moral gray area, rather than the evil darkness that people know.

In the eyes of the demon-searching demons, magic has never been a neutral force, and they will not let that book poison the minds of the people of Demacia.

Lestara met the two in the foyer of Snow Stone, and her adopted daughter was also present.

Senna did not see Sona yesterday. Now, this girl with long flowing blue hair and outstanding temperament is not like a Demacian who is serious and self-supporting.

At the same time, she also noticed that Sona was holding a guqin, with patterns and styles that looked like those of Ionia. Her sensitive intuition to magic told Senna that this guitar was the problem.

"Hello, Madam, we'll take Sona away as promised." Sena saluted Lestala first, and then said hello to Sona beside her: "Sona, I'm sorry to tell you that Miss Kasinna cannot come to see you off for yourself because of business."

Sona shook her head, smiled and nodded to greet her.

"Do you also need to bring this guqin?" Lucian asked.

Lestara said with a serious expression: "Sona can't speak. This guqin is her voice and her own job. They are inseparable. Please make sure to keep them together."

"But there are all demon searchers outside. And this piano..."

Lucian hesitated, and then Madame Lestara interrupted him: "Sena, Lucian, listen to me."

They learned from Mrs. Lestara that Sona was the child adopted by the couple.

At that time, Noxus had just fought with Ionia. The Illuminator took in a group of war orphans from Ionia. However, because he could not take care of it, he asked Marshal Barret, who was also the Illuminator, to take care of it for several months until they found a family willing to adopt these children.

The kind-hearted marshal and his wife happily agreed that after three months of careful care, all eight children successfully found a new family, but Sona stayed. Because she was the most special, she carried a guqin with her. She was a mute and could not speak, but she didn't need to speak, because listening to her playing was like talking to her, and it was deeper than any language.

They did not want Sona's musical talent to be buried, and others may not have a wealthy family as Marshal, who can train Sona into a big performer, so they kept her as a daughter to raise her.

"There are not only Demacians in this world, so no matter where people come from, they should get help when they need help." Mrs. Lestara held Sona's hand, her eyes turned red, but her voice was extremely firm.

After her explanation, Senna also understood that Guqin and Sona were bound, just like she and Lucian. So they discussed and decided to help the pair of Sona send Guqin out together even if they took the risk.
