Chapter 694: The Grand Ball

Many people think that after becoming the commander of Noxus, they can live in a luxurious palace and sit on the arrogant throne.

But Svein did not do this. He knew very well that the emperor's dictatorship could lead to the decline of the country at any time. Only absolute checks and balances can ensure that the huge machine continues to move forward.

So for the past ten years since he became the commander of Noxus, the throne of the late emperors has been empty.

He never thought of living in the palace, but just regarded the spacious auditorium as a place for the meetings of the Triafri Council, and he himself lived in the residence of the Jeriko family. It was as if the commander of the Noxus was just a job, not a identity.

He combed his hair meticulously, and he wore a simple coat for several years but had not replaced it.

On the table was an envelope with a red badge, and the contents of the envelope Svein had already opened and read it.

This is an invitation to a dance party, and the signature is an elegant font outlined by red pigment. This is a pigment that is more precious than Shurima vermilion or Piltwolf ochre, and is so expensive that it can break the bank in the ordinary family. It is a pigment called Aionia vermilion, full of luster red.

"Flavoring," Svein commented.

Vladimir actually wanted to invite all the famous families in the Immortal Fortress to attend the dance held in his mansion.

It’s ridiculous. What does an elderly man like him invite to do when he is doing the dance? It’s a carnival for young people.

But Svein soon smelled the conspiracy hidden behind him.

In my memory, the Mortola Manor has never unveiled its mystery to outsiders. He learned from the memory of the demon on the left arm that the last manor opened back hundreds of years ago, when the immortal fortress was violently turbulent.

And its reopening must mean what it means.

Svein already had a certain understanding of Vladimir. Through investigation, he gradually learned that the immortal celebrity had been reborn in the immortal fortress for many lifetimes, guiding the throne of Noxus in different identities, and coordinating the empire to launch many ambitious battles.

It is a bloody flower that grows under the shade of black roses.

And every reincarnation of his life is a bitter drink to the rejuvenation of the Empire Peng.

Svein discovered that under Vladimir's guidance, blood witchcraft had found a place in some armies and was also popular among the descendants of the old nobles.

Among the old-school aristocratic camps that are now undermined by the Choifali Parliament, many people are born into a cult group, Scarlet Secret Society, dedicated to Vladimir himself.

A group of various blood magic casters, relying on the fact that they learned a little clumsy, wanted to control the entire empire.

But now their calls are rising, leading others to gradually question the resolution of the Choi Falli parliament, bringing an unprecedented huge test to Svein.

And this sudden dance is like a signal of the assembly of believers or the prelude to the start of the battle. Svein felt that it would be better to go over and watch, as his existence can calm the growth of many evil secrets.

In order for the empire to become stronger, the Scarlet Secret Society must be eradicated, and the nobles of the old era must also be banned. This is an unforgivable trend. Any decayed person who wants to stand in front of this huge wave of change will be crushed to pieces under the impact.

The political structure of the empire was broken from the fragile balance when Vladimir sent the invitation letter and turned into a huge vortex of turmoil. There was not much time left for Geno.

Under the intense arrangement of Vladimir, the dance party was held as scheduled on the evening seven days later.

That night, the so-called people in the entire immortal fortress were all dressed up. Under the attention of unrelated people, they rushed into the narrow streets of Moltola, froze and froze. Even when the emperor took office, there was no such grand scene.

Most of the people who attend the dance party are thinking of visiting the mysterious manor. Even if someone mentioned why this dance party was set, it will be quickly assimilated by the pleasures around him.

After living in a depressed environment for so long, people are eager for a complete physical and mental release.

Svein did not bring his guards and walked into the manor with the surge of people. He was still wearing armor and a simple black coat, hiding his hands under his command, and was incompatible with the celebrities who were dressed up in attendance.

But this maverick also made him as prominent as a crow in a flock of doves, and most of them kept a distance from him. Most of them were the losers of the establishment of the parliament and hated Svein to the core.

But there were also Svein's group of deliberately approaching him, pleasing him, and blocking those bad gazes for him.

Svein didn't mind anything about this, but asked everyone to do their own things and have fun. He knew that the unsociable old man stood in the crowd and ruined the atmosphere, so he found a dark corner to drink and quietly watched everything happening in the wide dance hall with his deep eyes.

In order to prevent possible assassinations in the dance and to help her sister kill her enemies, Katerina also came to the dance.

She was wearing a well-cut red dress, her scarlet hair was tied behind her head, revealing her tight collarbone. Holding a glass of crimson wine in her hand, leaning against a cold stone pillar, staring at the young man and woman chatting on the dance floor without saying a word.

The soothing and elegant music was ready, but Katerina refused to come up with a cold expression and asked the men who wanted to invite her to dance with her.

It is one aspect that you can’t dance, and it is another aspect that you don’t want to dance. Her sister has left her and no one can take her to dance with her anymore.

She used a wine glass to conceal her cold eyes, trying to find her enemy in the crowd.

Since she learned that the one who killed Cassiopeia and she let the same group of people go to the Wolf Valhalla at that time, she has especially hated her omissions at that time, and her revenge has become more urgent.

Geno hid in the dark and saw through Katerina's eyes that Sviin was already present, which meant that his goal had been completed.

Next, it's time to see if Leflan is here.

So he moved to Elise's vision and saw how the Black Rose was moving.

Like Caterina, Elise was directly ordered by Leflan and also came to the dance scene to act as an assassin, with the same goal, all to kill Geno.

She was still wearing a tight burqa, with a mask wrapped around her face. Four sharp spider legs stretched out from under her black robe to attach to the back of the tower, looking coldly through the window at the fiery dance hall.
