Legends of Runeterra

Catalina returned to her yard. Unlike traditional noble ladies, her yard was full of dummies, targets, and weapon racks. It was like a small training ground.

Gently stroking the marks on the dummy, Catalina recalled that after finishing her training every day, she would practice here again at night.

I used to be so confident that I could use the sharp blade in my hand to make the surname Du Keao and the name Katarina resound throughout Noxus and make the enemies tremble in fear.

But the first mission ended in a disastrous defeat.

Yes, the opponents are a Fearless Vanguard and an Earth Elemental Mage, and her training time is far from enough to match that of the two!

But failure is failure, and his father's cold and ruthless eyes showed his complete disappointment in himself.

Perhaps, if I evacuated immediately after the first assassination attempt failed, he would not give up on me.

But she couldn't do it, because that was not only the first time she accepted the mission, but also the only way for her to get permission to go to Shurima to find Li En.

My uncalm behavior has touched my father's bottom line.

A sharp blade cannot have emotions. If a blade has emotions, it will not obey the orders of the person holding the blade.

I have been marked as unqualified by my father and will never be reused again.

This meant that his chance to compete with Cassiopeia for Li En had completely disappeared.

In the past, she could still rely on the fact that she was the only heir of the Du Kecao family, even though her engagement partner was Cassiopeia.

She believed that as long as she was good enough, with the sharp sword in her hand, it would only take a word for her to get her engagement back.

Now, all hope is lost.

Catalina walked into the room in a trance. Looking at the extremely simple room with only necessary furniture, she laughed at herself and fell directly on the bed with her leather armor on.

It was obviously the first time that I liked someone, and this person was obviously my original engagement partner!

If she could do it again, she would never make that choice!

Katerina closed her eyes.

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

For two consecutive days, Li En did not come to Du Kecao Manor.

Catalina was spinning the throwing knives boredly, guessing that the other party must have been delayed by something.

As she thought so, her brows slowly frowned.

...

Looking at the towering Immortal Fortress Palace in the distance, Cassiopeia was very excited.

First, she had finally arrived at the center of the empire's power, and she believed that with her own abilities, she would be able to stir up the situation.

Second, Li En is still alive and has returned to the Reyes family.

When the guard Safet and the female mercenary told her the news, she was so angry that she ordered someone to chop the female mercenary to death. If Safet had not stopped them and explained the relationship between her and Li En, the female mercenary would have been chopped to death.

However, she did not give the other party a good look and directly drove the female mercenary out of the lord's mansion.

Now that she knew that Li En was fine, Cassiopeia, who had hoped to use this opportunity to get in on the power of the Reyes family, breathed a sigh of relief.

The mother and daughter arrived at the manor just before the dinner in the Du Coquet family's carriage.

After some greetings with Du Keao about the harmony between husband and wife and the loving father and filial daughter, the few of them went to the restaurant and sat down.

After Cassiopeia looked around, she couldn't help but ask, "Father, why don't I see my sister?"

"Hmm? I guess he's training again. Go call Katarina over. It's really rude of you not to come out to greet your mother when she arrives!"

Du Cocao sent a servant away.

Soon, Catalina came to the restaurant with a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

"Father, you are looking for me!"

"Please sit down. Your mother and sister just arrived, and you didn't come to see them!"

Catalina looked calm and saluted to Soleana: "Good evening, mother. Thank you for your hard work!"

"Well, come sit down and eat something, my daughter!"

Before Catalina could answer, Cassiopeia said, "Long time no see, sister! You have been in the Immortal Fortress for so long, you must be very familiar with it! If you have time, take me to the Reyes Family. I just got here and I don't know the way yet."

"Quiet Peya! How can you talk to your sister like that!"

Soleana blamed him, then turned to Catalina and said, "Catalina, I heard that you and your brother-in-law are quite familiar with each other. Then you can take her to the Reyes family to visit Li En! What do you think, sir?"

"Well, what the madam said is right, so it's settled! Catalina, come and sit down!"

Du Cocao made the final decision, and the others didn't care about Catalina's opinion at all.

"No, father. I still have training to do! Mother, sister, enjoy your time. I'm leaving now!"

After saying this, Catalina turned and left without hesitation.

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

When Li En arrived at Eliza's mansion in a carriage, it was not until the evening of the day before the awarding ceremony that he slowly walked out of the mansion with the support of Iris.

"Little Apple, why don't you stay here tonight and we can go to the palace together tomorrow!"

Iris's face was rosy, like a flower blooming in the morning, and she was charming and beautiful against the backdrop of dew and sunshine.

The look he gave Li En was a mixture of pleasure, satisfaction and desire.

Li En, on the other hand, was wearing clothes with the pattern of the Kisira family.

With a face as pale as gold paper, pale lips and two eye-catching black circles, he looks like a hardcore appraiser of Fu Shou Gao from the late Qing Dynasty.

"No, Miss Iris... um... Teacher! Lady Hilda still has something to tell you!"

"Huh? Really?"

"Of course!"

"Well...okay, then go back!"

"Teacher, please stay!"

Li En had no attachment to the pair of holy words e+. He broke free from Iris's arms and walked quickly to the carriage.

"By the way, after the awarding ceremony, remember to come to my class every other day!"

Iris's gentle and domineering voice sounded behind him, but Li En didn't even turn his head and hurriedly got into the carriage.

...

When I go back, I can't go to her mansion again. When I get home, I will tell Hilda to ask that adult to let her teach in the Reyes family!

Let’s review what Li En experienced in the past few days.

At first, Elise acted like she was very angry and the consequences would be serious.

He accepted the gift that Li En had spent a lot of money on without changing his expression, and his attitude did not change at all.

Seeing this, Li En tried various methods, but there was no change after a whole day.

At night, he was invited to her bedroom by the servant. Although he knew it was a Hongmen Banquet, for the sake of magical knowledge, Li En finally gave in reluctantly.

Late at night, in the bedroom, two people alone, all the elements are filled!

Faced with the possible tragic experience, he is actually very painful inside, and the system can testify to this!

After the servants left, Iris asked Li En if he was willing to do anything to calm her anger.

After a painful decision, Li En nodded.

Iris, who was wearing cool pajamas, showed a satisfied smile, then threw him onto the bed and tore off his shirt fiercely.

He bit his shoulder and sucked Li En's blood.

To be honest, the amount of blood that Iris sucked away was not much, and it was far less than that of Berea. However, the other party not only sucked blood, but also plundered things like essence in the process.

As a result, Li En's legs were as weak as those of a fragile college student running 3,000 meters in his physical fitness test, and when he stood up, he felt weak.

Of course, if that were all, with his current physical condition and True Dragon's Reverse Scales, Li En would be able to recover quickly.

But she couldn't help but criticize Li En during class. Whenever Li En couldn't answer the question, Iris would criticize him.

The teaching materials prepared by Iris are all about arcane magic. The difficulty is like telling you that one plus one equals two, and then giving you a calculus problem and asking you to solve it.

The result was that Li En not only felt dizzy from studying, but was also bitten by Iris from time to time.

God knows how Li En managed to survive these days!

Li En took a long breath, rubbed his brows while sitting on the soft cushion, and changed the carriage route to the forging workshop.
