Legends of Runeterra

"Hoo~!"

After killing Dukor, Irelia let out a breath and six flying blades circled behind her.

There was a dead silence on his expressionless face that was more sorrowful than a dead heart.

After glancing at Rito who was lying in the distance and confirming that he was safe, Irelia turned and walked towards Li En.

"Clap! Clap!"

Stepping on the ground covered with flesh and blood, perhaps because the previous battle consumed a lot of physical strength, or perhaps for other reasons, every step Irelia took was extremely heavy.

The closer she got, the more frightened Irelia became.

Even not long ago, Li En was getting colder and colder in her arms.

At this moment, Irelia still couldn't believe that Li En and she were separated by death.

Kneeling beside Li En's 'corpse', Irelia reached out and gently lifted his head onto her thighs.

He put on the clothes that were not damaged at all, covering the hideous wound on his chest.

She took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood off his face.

That handsome and masculine face, as if gifted by the Creator, was displayed intact in front of Irelia.

Apart from looking a little pale, Li En, with his eyes closed, looked peaceful as if he was asleep.

Irelia stared at the face blankly, and every moment with Li En flashed through her mind.

A first encounter full of coincidences and embarrassment.

An unexpected yet surprising encounter.

After enjoying the dance, accompany her shopping and listen to her troubles.

Under the shade of the trees on the back hill, after listening to the strange stories from other countries, he faced her strange questions without any annoyance, but explained gently with a smile.

Finally, he descended from the sky, turned the swordsman into ashes with the force of thunder, and held her gently in his arms.

Pictures flashed through her mind, and Irelia suddenly realized that Li En had left such a deep mark in her life without her realizing it.

Looking at Li En's pale face, Irelia's vision gradually blurred.

“Tick-tock! Tick-tock!”

"Uuuuuuuuu~!"

The girl was so sad that she felt like she was about to suffocate and could only sob quietly.

Like a faucet being turned on, tears flowed from Irelia's eyes and dripped onto Li En's face.

"Brother Li En, I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

Irelia hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief, but the handkerchief that had previously wiped away blood and dust, after coming into contact with tears, directly smeared Li En's face.

"Cough cough!"

"!!!"

As if petrified, Irelia froze, her eyes fixed on Li En.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Irelia didn't have to wait long before a weak cough came out of Li En's mouth again.

"Brother Li En!!"

Irelia couldn't describe her feelings at the moment. She was extremely excited but cautious. She tried her best to control the amplitude of her movements and softly called Li En's name.

As if he heard the call, Li En opened his eyes with difficulty.

After a while, the confused eyes finally focused.

"Ari...cough cough cough~! Give me...cough cough cough~!"

"Brother Li En, what do you want?"

Irelia bent her lithe waist and leaned forward to listen attentively.

"The medicine...in the clothes..."

"Okay, I know!"

Irelia immediately fumbled in Li En's clothes and quickly took out a small box.

Looking at the familiar patterns on it, Irelia knew at a glance that this was the secret medicine of the Zan family.

She quickly opened it, took out a secret medicine pill, and carefully put it into Li En's mouth.

“Ahem!”

The pill fell out of Li En's mouth due to the violent coughing, and Irelia quickly caught it.

"Brother Li En, what should I do?"

"Pocket...water..."

Li En said weakly, and Irelia immediately took the magic bag from his waist.

Because Li En had asked Irelia to leave his mark on the magic pocket in order to satisfy her curiosity, Irelia also had the authority to open the pocket.

Of course, the reason why Li En did this was that with the help of Heimerdinger, he made some improvements to the magic pocket given by Lulu.

This includes the internal space division, and the public area inside is an area that can be used by everyone who is recognized and left a mark by Li En.

Avoid situations like Caitlyn taking out Seraphine's white silk from her magic pocket.

Although Li En's expression did not change at the time, he said it was a gift for Caitlin, and after he took some time to convince her, Caitlin did not care about it.

But after leaving the Giraman Manor, Li En put away all the miscellaneous things and went directly to Heimerdinger's laboratory, and did not leave until the transformation was completed.

Faced with this magical pocket that helped her secretly carry many pastries, Irelia opened it skillfully and began to search inside.

Soon, she pulled out a leather water bag.

After opening the water bag, Irelia was about to pour it into Li En's mouth, but seeing Li En's weak appearance, she stopped because she was worried that he would choke.

Staring at Li En's pale lips, Irelia's mind suddenly emerged with the stories in the storybooks that the sisters had secretly hidden in the past.

It was also at this critical moment that the protagonist in the story took a different approach.

“Ahem!”

A weak cough brought Irelia back to reality. Without any hesitation, she picked up the secret medicine and threw it into her mouth, then took a big gulp of water.

Then he aimed at Li En's lips and kissed them lightly.

It was like walking in the desert for a long time without water. When Li En found a small but sweet spring, he couldn't wait to drink from it.

But the tiny spring water was not enough, and Li En's thirst was not quenched at all after just moistening his throat.

So he rushed into the clear spring and tried to suck out the spring water hidden underground.

After his efforts, he finally tasted the spring water again which was even sweeter and more delicious than before.

The dark clouds in the sky quietly dissipated at some point, and the bright and clear moonlight shone down.

...

"Uh…"

As his consciousness gradually returned to his body, the severe pain all over his body made Rito, who had just woken up, groan.

He opened his eyes blankly, and the bloody and tragic battlefield made Rito instantly recall the scene before he fell into a coma.

"Ai...Rie...Lia!!!"

Rito endured the severe pain, struggled to stand up, and looked around anxiously.

However, Dukor's figure was not seen, but what came into view was the scene of Irelia hugging a man.

"Huh!?"

Rito, who thought Irelia was being held hostage, suddenly realized that the man's clothes looked familiar.

"Lee…Eh!?"

Rito rubbed his eyes and whispered in disbelief.

Although he arrived after Irelia, he also saw Du Kuo being so sincere to Li En.

But watching the two of them hugging each other, Rito felt joy, annoyance, and curiosity...

With all kinds of emotions intertwined, Rito stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.
