Legends of Runeterra

Hilda Reyes, on the surface, is the only daughter of the Reyes family of the Noxian Empire. Secretly, she is a peripheral member of the Black Rose. In fact, she is just one of the many magical mirror images of the Pale Lady (Note 1).

As an existence older than the history of the Noxian Empire, she used magic to create countless mirror images, manipulated and plotted the existence of Tharn Urzul, or now called Mordekaiser, so that he would be sealed in the underworld forever.

But she knew clearly that Modkaiser was constantly expanding his army in the underworld, and the seal would be broken one day. When that time came, she, as a former betrayer, would become his primary target for revenge!

Thinking of this, my good mood for strolling out of town gradually disappeared.

At this moment, the exclamation of the crowd in the distance attracted her attention. Looking carefully, she saw that there were thousands of stupid civilians like him in the ordinary empire.

The young figure being chased was wearing only oversized and thin pants made of a special material. Although he was a little dusty, his fair skin showed that he was definitely not a child from an ordinary family.

"Are the children of the nobility being taken as prey by the untouchables of the slums?"

Hilda crossed her chest with her left hand and supported her right elbow, with the back of her right hand lightly touching her chin. She watched the farce with great interest and began to think about whether she could find some fun from it to kill the boring time.

Suddenly, the young figure raised its face, and the dusty face appeared in front of Hilda. She was stunned for a moment, her heartbeat slightly accelerated, and an inexplicable sense of joy surged in her heart.

The feelings of the mirror are fed back to the original body in an unreasonable and extremely overbearing way!

At the same time, the pale face deep in the Immortal Fortress opened its eyes. All of a sudden, all kinds of detection, purification, and elimination magic were activated, but that feeling still existed, so natural and real.

The problem is that in hundreds of years, she has never encountered a situation where she could influence her original body through her clone!

What's more, the main body has already undergone countless magical engravings and transformations. Although the skin only looks pale, the inside has long gotten rid of the need to rely on a beating heart to maintain life.

The mirror image moved in unison with her real body. She placed her right hand gently on her chest, feeling the brisk and powerful beating of her heart. This feeling was like the first time she came into contact with magic, or when she sealed Modkaiser. The joy that came from her heart brought a charming smile to her face.

"Get him!"

This desire came up instantly!

The boy happened to be running in the direction of her. She waved her hand to signal the guards not to stop him. Hilda stood quietly there, like a spider that had woven a web, waiting for its prey to come to her.

-----------------

"Hoohoo!"

Li En was gasping for breath, and due to lack of oxygen, his vision began to go dark and blurry.

Sweat dripped down his forehead, washing away the dust that had been wiped off, revealing the white skin that had been hidden. From a distance, it looked like porcelain covered with cracks.

"Excuse me, please move aside! Brother, brother, don't be angry! We are orphans, but I accept you as my brother..." Ao Jin shouted while reaching out to grab Li En.

Although the onlookers had different expressions, no one stopped him. Wherever Li En ran, the people there dispersed.

Feeling the sound of wind caused by the waving arms behind him, Li En had no choice but to roll over.

When he climbed up using his hands and feet, he was dizzy and after running a few steps, he fell into the soft and fragrant robe.

"Bang~!"

Under the reaction force, Li En, who was about to fall, subconsciously hugged one of the other person's legs with both hands.

"Huhuhu~!"

No matter who he was hugging, Li En had no ability to care. Now his eyes were black, his ears were buzzing, his heart was beating like a drum, his lungs felt like they were on fire, his throat was dry and uncomfortable, and there was a faint taste of blood in his mouth.

"presumptuous!"

Seeing this, the guards stepped forward to pull Li En away as if they were fulfilling their duty.

"It's okay, back off!"

Hilda's eyes were always on the child at her feet, and she stopped him without even raising her head.

Hilda gently placed her right hand on Li En's head and stroked it, not caring at all that the dust and sweat on his body had stained this handmade robe from Ionia, and waited for Li En to recover.

A few minutes later, Li En, who had recovered, looked back and found that the tall man who had been chasing him had disappeared in the crowd. He breathed a sigh of relief.

He let go of her hand, took a few steps back and looked up at the lady he was hugging.

Her long golden hair was carefully groomed into a complex and beautiful hairstyle. Her face was slightly made-up, her watery emerald green eyes were matched with teardrop moles at the corners of her eyes, exuding amazing charm.

The clothes they were wearing only showed two words - expensive, and their owners were now looking at him with a smile.

"Don't worry, everything is fine now. Whose child are you from? Can I take you home?"

Hilda supported her knee with one hand and leaned over so that their eyes were at the same level.

Under the influence of gravity, her proud figure has a surprising curve, but today's robe has a high collar, which is a bit of a pity.

Li En did not respond, because he did not understand what the other party was saying at all. He glanced at the guards in standard armor around him. It can be seen that the other party is not only rich, but also powerful!

After thinking for a while, Li En bowed in silence to express his gratitude and turned to leave.

"Click!"

The surrounding guards immediately stepped forward and blocked Li En in silence!

"..."

Li En didn't try again and turned around obediently.

The noblewoman behind him stretched out her hand, and when Li En put his little hand in her palm, she narrowed her eyes and smiled, like a fox that had successfully captured its prey.

Hilda saw the hesitation and concerns of the boy in front of her, which meant that his family had most likely disappeared in the empire. It was a very common fact that a small noble family that had just risen would be destroyed in the blink of an eye.

"Don't be afraid, I will take good care of you!" Hilda said softly.

"Before I find out what's special about you!" She added in her heart.

Just as Li En was being led onto the carriage, he subconsciously turned his head. In the shadows in the distance, he saw the cold boy again. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from his sight.

Along the way, seeing that the boy didn't speak, Hilda tried to communicate with him in several languages.

The clear and stupid light in the boy's eyes made her realize that the child really didn't understand.

"A gifted awakener who lost his memory? Or an experimental subject who just escaped from a laboratory?"

Hilda, or the Pale Lady, found it increasingly amusing.

-----------------

That night, after dinner, Li En, led by the maid, entered the luxurious room and lay on the soft and fragrant bed.

Li En felt a little confused, if for no other reason than that there were lighting tools similar to electric lamps in the medieval decoration. What kind of world was this?

Rubbing his head, Li En stopped guessing, closed his eyes and summoned the panel.

The moment he saw the panel, his hands under the quilt clenched suddenly, and then slowly loosened.

"Ding, we found target number one!"

"Ding, we found the second target to capture!"
