Legends of Runeterra

"Ooohhhhhh~!"

"Don't lose it, don't lose it, I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

"Woooooo~!"

A group of naughty children experienced for the first time the feeling of their own methods coming upon them.

Everyone was covered in wounds, covering their wounds, crying and shouting, scrambling and desperate to escape into the distance.

"Click~!"

"Hahaha~! Brother Li En, did you see that? It turns out that Ewald and his followers would also cry and scream in fear!"

"Yes, I see. These are just small interests. We will settle the accounts with them later."

Watching the last person run away, Sindra threw the small stone in her hand to the ground, a smile blooming on her face.

Li En smiled slightly, took out a clean silk handkerchief from his arms, and gently wiped away the tears and dust on Sindra's face.

"Okay, now my face is clean."

"Thank you...thank you brother Li En..."

"Haha~! You're welcome."

As Li En was about to put the handkerchief away, he was stopped by Sindra's small hand.

"Brother Li En, I...I'll wash it for you and then give it back to you."

Looking down at Sindra's timid eyes, Li En loosened the hand holding the handkerchief.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Sindra."

"Hehe~! Don't worry, Brother Li En, I will definitely wash it clean!"

"Gulu~!"

A small but clear sound came from Sindra's belly. Her face turned red and she quickly raised her hands to cover her belly.

"Speaking of which, I'm a little hungry. How about we go get something to eat?"

"Okay...Okay..."

"Okay, let's go!"

...

"As expected, the dream constructed based on Sindra's cognition cannot produce something she has not seen before."

"Brother Li En, come quickly, I've prepared dinner~!"

"Okay, I'll come right away!"

Li En gave up the idea of ​​having all kinds of pastries for dinner, and got up from the river and walked to the campfire.

Looking at her hands holding her clean shoes, a blush appeared on Sindra's face under the light of the fire.

On the large patch of leaves covering the ground, the white, delicate little feet were slightly curled up.

"Thank...thank you, Brother Li En."

"Haha~! You're welcome. There are too many stones by the river. It would be bad if you pricked your feet."

After hanging a pair of clean but somewhat worn shoes dripping with water upside down on a branch and placing them in a suitable position away from the fire, Li En sat down next to Sindra.

"Here, Brother Li En, try it!"

Picking up the largest and ripest fruit, Sindra handed it to Li En.

"Thank you."

Li En took the fruit and held half in each hand.

"Click~!"

"Wow! Brother Li En is so awesome!"

"Haha~! Here, we'll each have half."

"Yeah, thank you, Brother Li En!"

Sindra happily took the fruit, took a bite, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

"So sweet~!"

"Yeah, it's quite sweet."

The fruits wrapped in leaves were quickly eaten by the two of them.

Then, the aroma of the grilled fish, which was placed on the charcoal with the flames extinguished, gradually wafted out.

“Well, it looks like the fish is ready to eat.

Here, be careful, it’s hot.”

"Yeah, thank you, Brother Li En."

There were two grilled fish, one large and one small. Although there was no seasoning except salt, Sindra ate them with gusto and finished them all.

"Hurr~!"

"Woo~!"

Sindra hurriedly covered her mouth and looked at Li En beside her with her small eyes.

Seeing that he was concentrating on adding firewood to the fire, I felt relieved.

After Li En sat back next to her and hesitated for a moment, Sindra spoke slowly.

"Um...Brother Li En..."

"Well, what's wrong Sindra."

"Where...did you go before? I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Sorry, I was not in Ionia during this period. I went to another continent."

"Hey~! Not... another continent!?"

“Yes, Runeterra is huge, it’s not just Ionia.

Just to our west is the continent of Valoran, where..."

The stars in the night sky spread into the forest, and a small river flows quietly.

By the campfire, Sindra opened her round eyes, listening curiously and excitedly to Li En's stories about a distant place she had never heard of.

Gradually, his eyelids began to twitch, and the small figure moved closer to the big figure.

He took off his coat and easily covered Sindra's entire body. Li En gently adjusted her position so that she could lean on him more comfortably.

“Crackle~Crackle~!”

The contained moisture expands when heated and explodes the wood, causing the flames to dance gently.

That night, Sindra felt more at ease than ever before.

...

Outside the dream, as Sindra's soul state became more and more stable, the dark purple, boundless ocean enveloping the dream began to surge.

...

"Whoa~ whoa~!"

The sound of waves hitting the rocks came, Sindra frowned, and subconsciously touched her side, but found nothing.

"Hmm? Brother Li En..."

Sindra suddenly opened her eyes and stood up, looking at everything in front of her in confusion.

The room, built of dark, ancient bricks and stones, had only a set of extremely simple furniture, and a hard wooden bed covered with a layer of unnecessary cotton wool, revealing its discomfort every minute and every second.

"This is..."

"Dong dong dong~!"

"Sindra, why haven't you gotten up yet? It's time to practice!"

"Yes, Master, I'll be right there!"

Before her brain could come to her senses, Sindra had already stood up and got out of bed reflexively.

After washing her face with cold water, Sindra seemed to have lost her memory and completely forgot the doubts she had before getting up. After wiping her face, she walked out of the room.

Teacher Konigan had disappeared long ago, but Sindra didn't feel the slightest bit surprised.

Ever since she followed her parents to this island and climbed up to this temple on the cliff, she has been practicing day after day under Conigan's guidance.

Although the teacher did not teach her the next practice concept after teaching her once, Sindra still persisted in repeating the practice out of trust.

"Click~!"

Sindra accidentally kicked a slightly protruding brick and almost fell to the ground.

"Why... the more I practice... the weaker I become?"

Sindra held onto the wall, looking at her pale and weak palms.

After a moment's silence, she turned around and headed towards Mr. Konigan's meditation room.

"Dong dong dong~!"

"Teacher, disciple Sindra wants to see you."

"Whatever it is, just talk outside the door."

Konigan's voice, without a trace of emotion, stirred up Sindra's resentment that had been growing weaker over the years.

"Bang~!"

The door opened, and Konigan met Sindra's angry eyes with a look of astonishment.
