Legends of Runeterra

"Nico, are you sure this is the direction to your village?"

"Yeah, there's definitely no problem provoking Nidalee this time!"

Facing Nidalee's suspicious gaze, Neeko patted her chest and pointed forward with confidence.

"Look at that willow tree. Although I was in a hurry when I escaped, Nicole remembers this tree very clearly!"

"All right…"

"Even though you've said this almost seven or eight times."

Nidalee sighed silently in her heart and followed Neeko as always.

Ever since they arrived in Ionia, they have been searching for the place where the "Mist Tail Tribe" live based on Neeko's sometimes effective and sometimes ineffective intuition.

Although we have been on the road, the results are not ideal.

The Mist Tail Tribe's homeland is not a forest or valley in the real world, but as Nicole said, it is located in the mysterious spiritual realm.

And according to Nicole's perception, the location of the clan's land is still in a state of constant change.

This also led to the two of them wandering around in Ionia for so long, but still could not find a way to go to the "Mist Tail Tribe Land".

Plus, Nidalee and Neeko just have less experience interacting with humans, not complete idiots.

So during the time they wandered around Ionia, they also felt the undercurrent sweeping and surging beneath the seemingly calm situation.

"ah!"

A cry of surprise interrupted Nidalee's thoughts.

"What's wrong, Nicole?"

"Nidalee... I..."

"What happened?"

Although Nidalee had some guesses in her heart when she saw Neeko's expression, she still looked at her with concern and calmness.

"Sorry... I'm sorry Nidalee, Neeko... Neeko is causing trouble again..."

"That's it..."

Looking at Neeko, who looked lost and apologetic, Nidalee walked to her side and raised her hand to gently ruffle Neeko's gradient hair.

"It's okay. Let's just rest here for a while. Maybe you'll remember something later, or maybe you'll have some connection with your people."

"Well...Neeko knows."

Although her mood improved after being comforted by Nidalee, Neeko's condition was still much worse than when she first returned to Ionia.

The two quickly set up a temporary camp. As the sky gradually darkened, the small fire illuminated the eyes of Neeko and Nidalee.

"..."

"Nidalee..."

"What's wrong, Nicole?"

"You said... Can Nicole really find the tribe's land?"

"Well, of course you can!"

"But…"

"No buts, if you're really worried, why don't we go ask Li En for help?

Anyway, he contacted us a while ago, and now he has come to Ionia."

"Can...can I..."

"Why not? Have you forgotten what Li En wrote in the letter?"

"Of course Neeko hasn't forgotten!"

"That's fine. We haven't contacted Li En yet, and he's still a little worried. Do you think Li En would be disgusted by us bothering him?"

"Lee En wouldn't mind!"

"That's it."

Before Neeko could react, Nidalee took out the jade token that Lien had given to each of them.

next second.

"Buzz~!"

"Nidalee? What's wrong? Are you in trouble?"

A gentle and peaceful voice suddenly rang out, making the two of them feel extremely at ease.

"Leen!!"

"Well, good evening, Nicole."

"Good evening..."

It was just a simple greeting, but it made Nicole's big bright yellow eyes sparkle.

He has been searching for her since returning to Ionia, but has found no trace of her.

Even in the dark, Nicole vaguely felt that she had never been able to narrow the distance with the place where the souls of her people were.

Even so, Neeko, who had never shown much weakness in front of Nidalee, now revealed all her grievances.

"What's wrong, Nicole?"

"Li En..."

Faced with Li En's question, Nicole was now in a dilemma.

Nidalee, who was sitting nearby, saw this and quietly glanced at the figure outlined by the golden and red light.

"By the way, Nicole, I'm in trouble now. I wonder if you have time to come to Presidio and help me.

Especially since you, Nicole, have a strong sense of the spiritual realm, you can be of great help to me."

"No problem, Li En, Nicole is willing to help!"

"Haha~! That's great, why don't you come over now?"

"Yeah, okay Lee En."

"it is good."

Li En, outlined by golden and red light, nodded, then raised his hand and waved gently.

"Buzz~!"

Space twisted, and a transmission channel opened in front of the two.

"Come on, you two. This passage leads directly to my side."

"Well, let's go, Nidalee!"

"Okay, Neeko."

Looking at Neeko who quickly regained her vitality, Nidalee couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.

Holding Nidalee's hand, Neeko pulled her into the space channel impatiently.

"Buzz~!"

It was as if countless paints exploded before their eyes, and colorful colors rushed into their eyes. In a brief trance, an elegant and natural courtyard came into their eyes.

"How about this? This is the courtyard I prepared for you. Do you like it?"

A gentle voice sounded from the side, suddenly waking up Nicole and the other person who had traveled thousands of kilometers in an instant.

"Leen!!"

"Bang~!"

Throwing herself into Li En's arms, Nicole fully felt the breath that made her feel extremely at ease.

"You must be exhausted these days, Nicole. You've lost a lot of weight."

"Hehe~! No, no, Neeko isn't having a hard time. Nidalee has always taken good care of me. She's the one who's having the hardest time!"

Li En followed Neeko's gaze and saw Nidalee twitching her nose slightly and looking at Li En with strange eyes.

"What's wrong Nidalee?"

"Li En...you...seem to have the aura of Vastaya?"

"Really? Let me smell it?"

“Sniff~Sniff~!”

Before Li En could answer, Nicole moved closer to him and sniffed him.

"Hmm, it is indeed the magical aura of Vastaya..."

Nicole was halfway through her speech when a faint blush suddenly appeared on her pretty face.

She is naive, but not stupid. The talent of the Mist Tail Clan is not only to imitate other creatures 'Sho Ma', but also to obtain the other party's memories at the same time.

During the time she was searching for her people, in order to find possible clues, Neeko used this talent more than once without anyone noticing, including Vastaya.

So at this moment, Nicole understood the meaning of this special breath.

"Ah this..."

Looking at the dizzy Nicole, Li En gently let her go and let her step on the ground.

"Speaking of which, are you hungry? Do you want some midnight snack?"

"Midnight snack? That's too much! Nicole wants a midnight snack!"

"What about you, Nidalee?"

"Well, me too..."

"Honey, supper is ready, come and eat together."

"Nalin!?"
