Legends of Runeterra

Presidium.

After Xia announced her identity and walked all the way to the center of the city and handed the letters to everyone, she returned to the yard bought by Li En with ease.

"Dong dong dong~!"

"Here it comes~!"

Nalin with long pink hair opened the door.

"Huh? Xia, you're back!"

"Long time no see, Nalin!"

"Long time no see, come in."

Nalin took Xia and they walked slowly towards the living room.

Just as I arrived not far from the door, I heard a noise in the living room.

"Nalin, Nalin~! Is Li En back? I seem to smell his scent..."

Ahri's little head popped out from the doorway and met Xia's eyes.

Suddenly, Ali's excited little face fell, and the two fox ears that were standing up high and the wagging fox tail quickly drooped down.

With her hands on her slender waist, Ahri puffed out her chest and looked at Xia with disdain.

"Huh~! Why is it you?!"

"Oh? What does my presence here have to do with you? This is not your home!"

"Huh? Based on my relationship with Li En, Li En's home is my home!"

"Haha~! Relationship? What relationship?"

Xia slowly walked up to Ahri.

"Didn't you just say you smelled Li En's scent? How about... can you confirm where it came from?"

Listening to Xia's words, Ahri wrinkled her nose subconsciously.

Then, Ahri's expression changed.

"you you you..."

Facing Ahri's face full of disbelief, Xia smiled.

"That's right! We were together, just last night~!"

Xia said as she gently touched her belly.

"Oh~! Really, I don't know if there will be any problems, such as... more little guys or something~!"

“You…you…waaaaaah~!”

The stupid fox was completely defeated and just ran away, covering his face.

"Ah this..."

Xia looked at this scene and suddenly felt a little apologetic.

Even though we haven't seen each other for such a long time, this stupid fox is even more arrogant than before. I couldn't help it and wanted to provoke her.

As a result, Ahri's defense was far inferior to her arrogant attitude, and she was easily destroyed and sunk by Xia.

Seeing Ahri running back to the room, Xia had to turn around and look at Nalin beside her.

"That... Nalin..."

"Hmm? Ah! What's wrong, Xia?"

Nalin covered her belly tenderly, and only reacted when she heard Xia calling her.

Xia felt a little strange, but didn't think much about it. After telling Nalin about Li En's decision, she handed her the letter that Li En prepared for her and Seti.

Then he asked Nalin for a portion of Ali's favorite snack and slowly walked to her door.

"Dong dong dong~!"

No one answered.

"Dong dong dong~!"

"Dong dong dong~!"

"That's enough, why are you still bothering me!"

"Li En asked me to tell you something."

"Click~!"

The door opened a crack, revealing one of Ahri's eyes.

"What's the matter? Tell me now!"

"After such a long journey, my feet are a little tired~!"

Xia held the plate and shook it up and down in front of Ahri.

"Gulu~!"

A subtle but clear sound of swallowing saliva was heard.

"Squeak~!"

"come in!"

"Haha~!"

With a slight smile, Xia put the plate on the table and sat down.

"Tell me quickly, what did Li En ask you to say?"

"Before he left, he asked me to..."

"Before leaving!?"

Ahri stood up in a flash.

"Where did he go? Why did he leave? When will he be back?"

"Sit down, I'll tell you bit by bit!"

"Oh..."

Seeing Ahri trying to suppress her anxiety and return to her position, Xia didn't say any more.

"Li En went to Noxus. He asked me to tell you: stay in Ionia, preferably by the side of Lord Karma. He will come back as soon as possible after the matter is settled.

The details are all in this letter!"

"Crack~!"

Just as Xia snatched the letter from Li En's hand, a black shadow flashed and the letter fell into Ahri's hands.

"Is there anything else you want?"

"there is none left!"

Seeing Ahri's impatient expression, Xia stood up and walked straight out the door.

As she reached the door, Xia paused.

"Just now...I didn't mean it...I'm sorry."

Ali, who was about to close the door as quickly as possible, was stunned, and then her little mouth curled up slightly.

"Yeah, it's okay. It was my fault for being rude at the beginning. Welcome back, Xia!"

"Ok!"

Xia nodded slightly and was about to turn around.

"Bang~!"

The door was quickly closed.

Xia looked at the door that was so close to her, and the smile that had just appeared on her face quickly disappeared.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, Xia, she's just a stupid fox, there's no need to be angry with her!"

She kept comforting herself in her heart, but Xia's fists clenched involuntarily.

"Damn it, I should have secretly stuffed some chili in the snack!"

Xia took a deep breath and left the room that originally belonged to Li En.

...

Inside the room, Ali first glanced at the envelope.

Looking at the nine fox tails outlined with just a few dozen strokes, Ali's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

Subconsciously putting the envelope to his nose and sniffed it, Ali's face froze.

"Damn it, Li En's scent is completely covered by Xia's scent!"

Ali put down the envelope, carefully opened it and took out the letter.

'Ali, my love: seeing your letter is like meeting you, reading your letter makes you happy...'

"Hehe~! My love, my love~! Li En is really something, saying embarrassing things every day~!"

Ali covered her little face, gently fell on the bed, hugged the pillow where Li En had slept, and continued to look down.

'I have found some clues about your life story, but the place they lead to is too dangerous. When I become stronger, I will go with you...

I have already told Lord Karma that she will be the one to provide your spiritual essence needs from now on...

This farewell is really a helpless act. I feel guilty but helpless.

Eat well and wait for me to come back!

Love, Li En.'

Staring blankly at Li En's handwritten signature at the end of the letter, Ali covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes slightly red.

"Lee En..."

...

"Brother Li En~!"

Under the moonlight, Irelia held the letter and gently called the name of her beloved.

In the conference room during the day, when Xia handed the envelope to her, under the gaze of everyone, Irelia felt an indescribable shame in her heart.

But now, after reading the envelope, Irelia only hated herself for fainting on the battlefield.

As a result, his eyes went dark and he didn't even get to see Li En for the last time.

Irelia was regretting so much at this moment.

...

In the meditation room, Karma put down the letter in his hand.

Thinking about Xia whom I met today, she had an absurdly strong scent of Li En.

There were also two other female Vastaya who had never been seen before in the courtyard of Presidium City.

A strange thought emerged in her mind.

"Is Li En... the kind of human who only likes Vastaya!? No! He even left a letter for Irelia, and that... girl named Akali..."

Thinking of Zelos with a strange look on his face during the day, and Meimu with an inexplicable expression.

Karma's thoughts became more active.

"Hoo~!"

Karma breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down.

"Tomorrow, I will go check on those two Vastaya under the pretext of feeding them soul essence!"
