Legends of Runeterra

"Ta da~! Ta da~!"

The carriage slowly drove into the Bouville Manor and stopped steadily at the gate.

"Click~!"

The car door opened and Li Engang came out.

"Hahaha~! Great, Li En, you're finally here~!"

Following the direction of the heroic laughter, Barrett was walking towards Li En with a big laugh.

Next to him was an elegant and dignified noble lady in a silver and blue dress.

The accessories on the brown bun seemed a bit plain compared to those on other nobles, but they actually highlighted her gentle temperament.

"Haha~! Sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Barrett!"

"Oh, no, we just came out because the agreed time has come!"

Barrett looked at Li En, who looked even more tall and outstanding after changing into aristocratic clothes, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

"Come, Li En, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Lestara Bouvier."

"It's nice to meet you, Lady Lestara."

"Haha~! Me too, Li En. Thanks to you for helping me, otherwise Barrett... Anyway, thank you very much!"

"It was just a coincidence. I just happened to meet you and I took action. Madam Lestara, you are my elder, there is no need to do this!"

Under Li En's gaze, Barrett held up Lestra who was about to salute.

"Hahaha~! Li En is right, Madam, don't be like this. Don't worry, I will toast him a few more glasses later!"

"I'm sorry, I was a little excited at the moment and caused you trouble, Li En. Please come inside."

After asking the attendant to hand the gift to the waiter of the Bouville family, Li En, led by the Barrett couple, came to the reception room of the Bouville Manor.

After chatting for a long time over tea and snacks, Barrett turned to look at Lestara beside him.

"By the way, dear, where is Kashina?"

Lestara leaned close to Barrett's ear and whispered, "You forgot that the little girl from the Crown Guard family came over a few days ago, and they went to the Illuminator Church together this morning!"

Since the little girl was having a quarrel with her family, Lestra still wanted to help her keep it secret.

Li En was polite and did not try to pry into what Lestara said.

"Oh, I see. I see!"

Barrett nodded, then looked at Li En.

"Come on, Li En, it's almost time, let's go have lunch!"

"Yes, Mr. Barrett."

"Hahaha~! I have prepared fine wines from various regions. Although I am no match for you in martial arts, when it comes to my drinking capacity, I will convince you!"

...

"Uh... this... why does this wine taste a bit salty? The glass looks a bit weird too!

Come on, Li En, let’s have another drink!”

Without waiting for Li En to reply, Barrett opened his mouth and looked up.

"Gulu~! Gulu~!"

"Hahaha~! Mr. Barrett, you are holding a soup bowl! You are really drunk. It seems that I win this drinking contest!

But since you've already drunk, I'll join you in!"

Li En, with a flushed face, picked up the tall vase with the branches removed from the table, and then tilted the mouth of the vase.

"Wow~!"

The clear water inside poured directly onto Li En's chest, soaking a large area of ​​his clothes.

“Plop! Plop!”

With two muffled thuds, one from the front and the other from the back, Li En and Barrett rolled onto the thick carpet.

"Ah~! These two guys, really..."

Lesstara on the side shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

After just one morning of getting along, Li En quickly gained Lestara's recognition for his politeness, knowing when to advance and retreat, and for saving Barrett's life.

"Tracy, Pally, help Li En to the guest room to rest!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

"Remember to wipe him and change him into clean clothes."

"Okay ma'am!"

Upon hearing this, the two maids nodded repeatedly.

After watching the two maids help Li En up and leave, Lestara called two male waiters to help Barrett, who had a beer belly and was tall and strong, to the bathroom.

There was no way. Barrett had poured the entire pot of broth on himself, so he had to wash it off thoroughly.

...

Sona felt that she was so lucky.

As the war spread in Ionia, he was rescued by Lord Lien at the critical moment and successfully boarded the ship to Demacia.

After arriving safely in Demacia, he was adopted by the patriarch and his wife of the famous Buwell family, the main supporters of the Church of the Illuminator.

The bold and cheerful Mr. Barrett, the gentle and approachable Ms. Lestara, and the smart, lovely, kind and friendly sister Kahina.

They treated Sona like a real family member.

This extremely lucky experience made Sona often think in her mind, is she really qualified to enjoy this wonderful life?

'Ionia is being ravaged by war, is Sister Martina okay?

And Lord Li En, he...'

Sona walked along the corridor, praying silently in her heart.

'Great Ionian spirit, beloved winged guardian~!

Please bless Lord Li En, bless him...

Huh!? '

Sona's lake blue eyes widened slightly.

Not far in front of her, two maids were supporting a tall black-haired man and walking slowly towards them.

But the black hair and figure were so similar to the figure of Sona engraved deep in his memory.

"That's impossible! This is the capital of Demacia, how could Lord Lien be here!?"

Since Sona couldn't speak, Mrs. Lestara never forced her to meet guests, so Sona only vaguely knew that Mr. Barrett was going to entertain a distinguished guest today.

Although Sona didn't think it was Li En at this moment, her body subconsciously walked over.

"Good day, Miss Sona!"

In response to the maid's greeting, Sona smiled and nodded slightly.

When she turned her eyes to Li En, Tracy immediately understood what she meant.

"Ms. Sona, this is today's distinguished guest, Lord Li En. He and Master Barrett are drunk, and Madam Lestara asked us to send him to the guest room to rest."

As Tracy spoke, the drunk Li En seemed to be awakened. He turned his head slightly, showing his face to Sona.

"Master Li En! !"

Sona opened her eyes and exclaimed in her heart.

Taking a step forward, Sona gently held Li En's face, ignoring the strong smell of alcohol.

"It's really Master Li En, but...how could it be..."

"Ms. Sona, is there something wrong?"

Seeing Sona's big reaction, Pari asked in confusion.

Sona shook her head upon hearing this and communicated with the two using sign language.

In the more than half a year since they came to the Bouvier family, in order to facilitate communication with Sona, the Barrett couple and Kashina improved the sign language and asked the maids in the backyard to learn it.

"Ms. Sona, are you saying that you will take care of Master Li En yourself!?"

Facing the maid's surprised look, Sona nodded.
