Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 44 Meir Midalda

After Caitlin offered to help Li En write a visiting card, the couple did not give a clear response, but let Li En stay first in the name of gratitude.

Caitlin was a little dissatisfied about this, but she was still happy that Li En chose to stay.

In this way, he spent a day as a guest in the Gilaman family. During this period, he could not avoid some observation and testing. Li En, who had been trained by the Reyes family, naturally responded perfectly.

This made the Gilaman couple slightly believe the story of the fallen nobles.

...

The next morning, in the dining room of the Gilaman family.

Because Piltover's prosperity largely comes from military orders from Noxus, the etiquette of the upper class is basically adapted from theirs.

Watching Li En's skillful and elegant movements, Cassandra became more certain of his identity and immediately told him about the decision she had discussed with her husband last night.

"Leen, Wayne and I have agreed on the visiting card that Caitlin mentioned. Which elder do you want to visit?"

"Thank you, ma'am! I would like to visit Lord Jagu Midarda directly!"

"Master Jagu! That's the head of Midalda!"

Cassandra was a little surprised. She thought the boy was just looking for an unknown member, but she didn't expect that he would directly want to see the current head of the family.

"That's right. I didn't tell you before, but I am actually from the same clan as Lord Jiagu."

Li En's expression was shy yet proud, just like a teenager of his age.

"It's amazing!" Mr. Wayne commented at the right time.

"Hey, Li En! You didn't even tell me this!"

Caitlin's eyebrows were slightly furious. She had been very cautious the whole day yesterday, fearing that something she said might be misunderstood by him, and in the end the other party would be richer than her!

Then her attitude yesterday made her look like a comedian on stage!

"I'm sorry Caitlin, I forgot to tell you, I didn't mean to hide it from you!"

"Humph! Then you must come with me to see Orianna today. Don't refuse!"

"No problem, it's my pleasure!"

Seeing their daughter look so different, the couple realized that the situation was not simple.

Just then the servant came forward with the latest issue of the Progress Daily and placed a copy in each person's hand.

"This is our Piltover Progress Daily. It contains the latest scientific and technological achievements and various news. It's quite interesting. Li En, you can take a look!"

"Okay, I got it Mr. Wayne!"

Smiling and nodding, Li En looked at the newspaper in his hand, which was considered an antique in his previous life, and inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.

Li En casually opened the newspaper and glanced at a few pages. He was stunned when he saw the date in the lower left corner.

"October 5th?"

Li En whispered the date and was extremely shocked.

Clearly, he set out for Nashrameh at the end of March, and including the journey, it was only around April 3 or 4 when he encountered the Void Swarm. After that, he stayed in Bandle City for no more than a day...

Oh, Bandle City!

Li En secretly cursed himself for being careless. He knew clearly that the time and space of Bandle City was not unified with that of the outside world, but he did not confirm the time after coming out.

Fortunately, only a month has passed.

However, I have to quickly establish contact with Noxus, especially since Katarina is so impatient, she might have already rushed to Shurima to find me!

So Li En stood up, bowed, and said in a serious tone: "I'm sorry, ma'am, I need to see Lord Jia Gu as soon as possible!"

"Oh? Did something happen?"

"Please forgive me for not being able to tell you the specific reason, but I really need to see Lord Jagu!"

Cassandra looked at the boy who was suddenly extremely anxious in front of her and hesitated for a moment.

"Mother...Mother, please help Li En!"

Hearing Caitlin's request, the couple looked at their daughter in surprise.

"Well... well, I can't meet Lord Jagu directly for the time being! But I can help you contact Senator Meier. You meet her first and convince her to take you to see Lord Jagu!"

"No problem, thank you very much!"

"Humph!"

"Thank you, too, Caitlin!"

As Li En thanked them, the three people's eyes suddenly focused on her. Caitlin turned her head and concentrated on eating breakfast, as if nothing had to do with her. Only the little feet shaking under the table betrayed her owner's emotions.

Without delay, Lady Cassandra, having finished her breakfast, arranged for the carriage to set off.

Before the two of them left, Caitlin suddenly jumped out.

"I also need to go!"

"Caitlin, I fixed your rifle for you. Spend the morning practicing your marksmanship with your father!"

Caitlin looked at the gun that the servant brought up. She knew her lie had been exposed, so she immediately followed Mr. Wayne obediently.

Looking at her huddled back, Li En could only pray for her silently.

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

The two soon arrived at Piltover's City Hall and met Senator Mel who was working.

After explaining their purpose, Cassandra went out, leaving the space for the two.

"Middarda from Noxus? Interesting!"

Mel, who was probably in his early twenties, with brown skin and golden sequins on his face, looked at the boy in front of him with interest.

Li En performed a Noxian etiquette and said in ancient Noxian: "Noxus flows endlessly, may the axe blade carve a path for you!"

Meier's expression changed, and he put away the playfulness on his face. He stood up and returned the greeting seriously, saying: "The Immortal Fortress stands firm, and the Blade of Kassus is always sharp! So, which ally are you?"

"The rose is in full bloom! My name is Lee En Reyes. I encountered an accident and I am temporarily using the name of Midalda. Please forgive me!"

"Leon Reyes!?" Mel stood up suddenly and walked in front of the boy. "Didn't you disappear in Shurima a month ago? How did you suddenly appear in Piltover?"

"The matter is very complicated, so I cannot elaborate on it. Please forgive me, Ms. Mel! I would like to use the power of the Midalda family to contact them as soon as possible!"

"Yes, please follow me!"

Mel agreed decisively, and the two of them went out immediately.

After thanking Lady Cassandra again, Li En got on the mechanical carriage and came to Midalda Manor again.

Under Mel's leadership, they had a smooth journey and successfully met the current head of the family, Jagu Midarda - an old man with gray hair, dressed in gorgeous and formal clothes, and with a majestic aura without even getting angry.

After repeating the situation, Jagu looked at Li En in surprise.

He took out a mechanical device, pressed the switch, and Li En's appearance was projected. He compared it and confirmed that it was correct.

Another invisible wave swept over, and seeing that Li En's appearance had not changed at all, Jia Gu finally nodded in relief.

"Mel, take our distinguished guest, Mr. Li En, to the voice transmitter!"

"Yes, Lord Jagu!"

"Thank you very much, Lord Jagu!"

Watching the two leave, Jagu smiled, took out a machine carved with a rose, and began to press it regularly. Signals were transmitted to a hidden corner somewhere in Piltover.
