Legends of Runeterra

Akali watched the redness and swelling quickly subside and was amazed at how effective the medicine was.

She raised her right hand and sniffed her fingertips gently, but she didn't smell any special medicinal ingredients in the wine.

"Master Li En, what kind of potion is this?"

Li En, who was enjoying the girl's lap, thought to himself that he was a little careless and quickly changed the subject.

“I brought this from Shuoji Temple, and I don’t know what herbs were added to it.

But Akali, actually our age gap is not that big. I always feel it's a bit weird that you keep calling me "sir"! "

"Then Li En... Sir, how do you want me to address you?"

Akali, who vaguely guessed the other party's thoughts, looked at Li En, who was lying on her lap with his eyes closed, with some anticipation.

"Well...if you want, you can call me brother or big brother. After all, I'm only in my twenties."

Li En said he was older without changing his expression, then opened his eyes and looked into Akali's reddish-brown eyes.

A blush appeared on her fair face. Akali opened her mouth several times and took a while to make a mosquito-like sound.

"Li En... Big... Brother..."

The girl's voice was soft and trembling, which made Li En, who was lying comfortably, feel even more relaxed.

"Well, Akali, remember to call me that from now on!"

"But...Mother..."

"It's okay, I'll take care of Ms. Meimu's side. It's just a title, don't worry!"

"Yes! I understand, Brother Li En!"

Thinking of the existence that her mother used to call "Sir" and now being called "Brother" by herself, Akali inexplicably felt a sense of joy in her heart.

Seeing this, Li En's mouth corners slightly raised.

Suddenly, his expression changed.

"Hi~!"

"Brother Li En, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay Akali, I just had a sudden headache. I guess it's because I overused the 'Dragon Power' before, and I haven't recovered yet!"

"Brother Li En, I learned some acupuncture points before, if you don't worry..."

Although Akali has studied this knowledge hard since she was a child, compared with the power of the "Dragon Power", the acupoint knowledge is too insignificant.

She wasn't sure whether it could alleviate the problem, so her tone was a little unconfident.

"Okay, then it's up to you!"

"Well, leave it to me!"

Facing Li En's trusting eyes, a smile bloomed on Akali's face.

She nodded, then placed her small hand gently on Li En's head and began to massage it softly.

With the continuous feeling of comfort coming from his head, Li En closed his eyes comfortably.

Unlike Meimu who had always believed that she was not qualified, Li En, as the 'Dragon Lord' who was countless times more powerful than her, trusted Akali unconditionally.

Akali looked at Li En's peaceful sleeping face, and felt that the emptiness that had never been recognized was now satisfied like never before.

...

“Sizzle~!”

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky above the forest, and the sound of electric current was heard a few seconds later.

Looking from the sky, a lightning sphere with a diameter of about one meter was rushing towards the gate of the Sect of Balance.

The members of the Church of Balance who were standing guard at the mountain gate showed surprise on their faces the moment they saw the sphere of lightning.

After a few seconds, the lightning sphere stopped steadily in front of the on-duty believers.

A man who was just over one meter tall, wrapped in a purple ninja suit, with only a pair of blue-purple eyes exposed.

"Lord Kenan!"

The church members on duty saluted one after another.

"Well, where is the person in charge at the moment?"

"Senior Brother Shen and Master Meimu are in the Stargazing Hall!"

"okay, I get it!"

“Sizzle~!”

After Kenan finished speaking, he turned into lightning and disappeared in a flash.

A few seconds later, Shen and his companions who were discussing in the 'Stargazing' hall suddenly saw a flash of lightning.

"Lord Kenan!"

This all too familiar scene made Shen and the Meimu couple bow together.

Kenan's seniority is special. From the leaders of the other two factions to ordinary believers, everyone calls him "Lord Kenan".

"Hmm! What about others? What happened during the time I was away?"

Faced with Kennen's question, Shen's face darkened, but he still spoke slowly.

Shen did not hide anything from this person who had been guarding the path of balance for nearly ten thousand years.

In a concise and clear manner, he recounted the events of the "Black Fog".

"Is that so? No wonder he asked me to do that mission!"

After Shen finished his story, Kenan sighed softly, his calm tone carrying a hint of regret that was hard to conceal.

Kenan suddenly realized and helplessly shook his head.

As early as when he noticed the change in the seal of the spiritual vein, he had already anticipated that something big had happened in the sect, and most likely it was done by people within the sect.

"Master Kenan, what is the mission that Master Kushuo asked you to complete?"

“Nothing, just asked me to go to the Silana Monastery, one of the holy places, to look up and verify some information.

Now it seems that it was just a trick used by the inner demon to get rid of me!"

Kenan waved his hand, and then his voice became serious.

"Now that the 'Black Mist' incident has been resolved, let's put it aside for now. Everyone, the most urgent matter is the invading army of Noxus.

When I rushed back, I found an army of tens of thousands of people heading towards Presidium in an extremely brutal manner!

At their current speed, they are expected to appear outside of Presidium in about a week!"

As Kenan spoke, he used lightning to draw a map in the air, showing the situation to the three people.

As they listened to the news Kenan brought, the faces of the three began to turn serious.

"It seems their target should be Presidium!"

"Have their generals gone crazy? Without adequate logistics, they have penetrated so deep into the hinterland. If anything unexpected happens, these tens of thousands of people will suffer a great defeat!"

"Plasidion is the recognized capital of Ionia. Taking it down would have a huge impact on the local resistance consciousness.

Although this move is dangerous, it is not surprising that the opponent is Noxus!"

The three of them talked together and soon analyzed the general purpose of the Noxian army.

Seeing that the three were about to start an in-depth discussion, Kenan quickly spoke.

"By the way, Shen, you just said that this generation of Divine Dragon Venerable is in the sect. Where is he now?"

“Lord Li En has been recovering from his injuries, and Akali volunteered to take care of him.

Now Akali is probably taking Lord Li En out for a walk to enjoy the scenery!"

When mentioning Li En, Shen's tone naturally became respectful.

Kenan noticed this and looked at the Meimu couple, and found that they also showed a hint of respect on their faces.

Kenan raised his eyebrows slightly, and his curiosity about Li En grew stronger.

"Okay, I got it! I haven't seen Akali for a long time. I'll go see her and meet this 'benefactor' of the Order of the Kinkou!"

"Lord Kenan, please tell Lord Li En to come to the Stargazing Hall to discuss matters!"

"understood!"

Before the words faded away, Kenan's figure turned into a point of light and disappeared.
