Legends of Runeterra

"Is this the black fog that will appear on Soul-Eating Night as rumored?"

"That's right, Li En, but this is too weird. It's not the right time yet, and the scale is incredible."

Staring at the black fog, Janna's azure eyes were filled with confusion and worry.

As a god of faith that has been weak for a long time and has been sleeping for hundreds of years, and as there are also gods near Bilgewater in the east, Janna doesn't know much about the secrets of the Soul-Eating Night.

Most of the information was obtained from mortal communications carried on the wind.

"Haha~! No matter what secrets it has, since it dares to invade Zaun, let's leave them all behind.

My dear, I will leave the protection of the city to you."

"No problem, Lee En!"

Enjoying the feeling of being protected, a smile appeared on the goddess' perfect face. Li En nodded, and then let his body be captured by the gravity of the planet.

"Huhuhu~!"

"Boom~!"

With the sound of wind in his ears, Li En passed through the thick black fog unhindered and fell to the ground.

“Hula~!”

Before Li En could look around, the black fog around him began to surge unnaturally.

Wisps of faint green light quietly emerged from the swirling black fog.

"Hehe~! What a greedy and vicious curse!"

Li En raised the corner of his mouth. He did not use any force to suppress it, but instead let the black fog torment him.

He had already observed and sensed it in the air with the dual perspectives of the void and the devil. Although the black fog in front of him was huge, there were actually no familiar evil spirits hiding in it.

Rather than calling it a Soul-Eating Night, it would be more accurate to say that it was a curse that had been accumulating for thousands of years, and with the gradual revival of a certain existence, it was beginning to become active.

As the black fog rolled, pairs of dark green eyes lit up from it.

“Tick, tick, tick!”

Along with the sound of disordered footsteps, monsters as big as adult men, covered with gray-white skin and covered with sharp teeth and claws, walked out silently.

With jealousy and resentment towards the living flashing in his eyes, the leading monster slowly opened his mouth.

“Aaaaaaah~~~!”

An inhuman scream rang out, sharp and piercing, enough to make ordinary people dizzy.

Like a charge horn, monsters from all directions pounced on Li En.

Eager to tear apart the body of this prey, drink its blood, and devour its soul.

However, facing the monsters that were stacked and crowded and rushing in like a tide, Li En showed a trace of disappointment on his face.

“Is it only this extent?

Forget it, let’s finish it early and go back to watch the concert.”

"Boom~!"

The golden-red flames and scarlet lightning exploded, and any monsters they came into contact with were instantly turned into dust.

...

'Faster! Faster!'

Shrouded in a quiet, warm, shimmering white mist called "Holy Mist", Gwen quickly rushed towards the gathering place of the black fog.

Ever since waking up on the beach and discovering that she had a body that was no different from a human and could move freely, Gwen has been determined to trace the source of the black fog and contain it at all costs.

During the years of wandering in Runeland, Gwen did his best to fight against the cursed black fog and tried to find a partner who could help him solve the curse.

Unfortunately, he killed countless undead in the black fog and saved many mortals, but he didn’t find a single partner to cooperate with.

Now sensing that the source of the curse is becoming more active, Gwen, knowing that she has not much time left, chooses to go to the Shadow Isles alone.

Even if she could never come back, she would kill that guy so that the mistress who sewed her with her own hands could rest in peace.

However, when she happened to pass by this sea area, she sensed that the vicious black fog was approaching the prosperous city, eager to plunder the souls of the living and strengthen the curse.

Gwen would never allow such a thing to happen, so she turned around and rushed over without hesitation.

Gwen's figure flew across the sea, looking at the city getting closer and closer. She did not sense the wailing of innocent souls, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

'Great, there's still time for everything!'

Gwen, who was hidden in the 'holy mist', raised her right hand, and a huge pair of blue scissors, taller than her, half real and half virtual, quietly appeared in her hand.

Looking at the black fog sinking not far away, Gwen jumped up.

"Boom~!"

"Wow~!"

Gwen twisted her body neatly in mid-air, and the golden-red flame brushed the edge of the "Holy Mist" and bombarded the black fog. The fiery and domineering power made Gwen exclaim.

Fortunately, being enveloped by the 'holy mist' not only concealed her figure and movements, but also allowed her to evade most attacks. Moreover, this attack was not aimed at Gwen, otherwise her favorite skirt would have been damaged.

Gwen turned her head and looked with her strange and beautiful eyes, and met a pair of dark and calm eyes.

"No way, can he see me!?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other person's eyes naturally swept over Gwen's position, and it looked like a casual glance.

Seeing this, Gwen's nervousness quietly subsided. She floated down to the ground, holding her scissors and looking curiously at the humans in the distance.

Golden-red aura and scarlet lightning lingered around the opponent. The undead spirits that were terrifying and ferocious to ordinary people were turned into dust by the opponent's casual wave of the hand.

Looking closely, the face of the most handsome human man Gwen felt she had ever seen had a hint of boredom.

'He is so strong!'

Gwen stared at the other person without blinking, with a hint of anticipation in her heart.

...

Out of caution, Li En, who had been maintaining a dual perspective of the void and the devil, inevitably saw something when Miss Gwen jumped off the sea.

'Sorry, but I didn't mean to say that, pantyhose are cute too.'

Secretly apologizing in his heart, Li En looked away without any hesitation, expression unchanged. As a gentleman, he did not have the slightest greed.

"The black fog has been reduced, it's time to end it!"

In order not to make too much noise and thus affect the ongoing concert, Li En chose a method that was somewhat torturous for him - maintaining a certain level and dissipating the black fog bit by bit.

The black fog, which had now become thinner, made Li En feel refreshed.

Open your mouth and whisper the name of the goddess.

"Janna!"

"Leave it to me, Li En!"

With the tacit understanding between Li En and Janna, the man and the god completed the communication instantly.

"Whoo~~!"

A sky-blue cyclone formed quietly and expanded to a height of a hundred meters in just a few seconds. The thin black fog was sucked into it without any resistance.

"Da~!"

Li En snapped his fingers lightly, and a flame carrying the power of [Holy Silver] flew towards the cyclone.

"Bang~!"

The wind fanned the flames, and the hundred-meter-high cyclone was ignited in an instant.

Along with the black fog that was caught in it, it was burned to ashes by the golden-red flames.

...

"Pah pah pah~!"

Seeing the black fog being completely wiped out, Gwen, who was hiding in the "holy mist", also applauded in a way that the other party could not hear.

"Although you can't hear it, thank you anyway, good unknown gentleman!"

Gwen lifted her skirt slightly and gracefully performed an ancient etiquette that she had seen while accompanying the hostess.

"You're welcome, it's just a little effort."

"Hey~!"

Gwen raised her head suddenly, with a look of shock and confusion on her little face.
