Legends of Runeterra

When Akali asked this question, Li En understood the contradiction hidden in her heart.

As the daughter of Meimu, even though Meimu is a very strict mother, Akali's identity is undeniably superior to most people.

But due to the strict teachings of the Order of the Balance, it is obvious that even if there is a way in Ionia for ordinary people to gain magic power, as a member of the Order of the Balance, Akali will not, or cannot, use it.

After all, this kind of method is definitely not a "harmless" method.

Thinking of this, Li En's dark and gentle eyes calmly looked at Akali who was trying hard to suppress her inner fluctuations.

"Magic, for most people, is an innate talent."

"'Born with'..."

Akali repeated these four words softly, her eyes dimming involuntarily.

"but..."

"But what!?"

"There are indeed some means to allow people without talent to obtain 'magic'."

Akali's eyes lit up for a moment, but then quickly dimmed.

“I’ve heard of this too.

However...those methods either involve contacting extremely evil beings, or using cruel means to rob others of their talents."

"Well, Akali, why do you ask this question suddenly?"

"I...I...I have a friend who was born without awakening 'magic' or 'magic power'. Brother Li En, you are knowledgeable, so I thought of asking for her!"

"Huh? Really?"

"Yeah, really, really!"

"Well, I have a method that may be able to solve this problem without any side effects and without hurting others.

But since your friend is not here, let’s talk about it next time we meet…”

"Brother Li En!"

Akali stood up with a bang, holding Li En's arms tightly with both hands, her little face less than a fist away from Li En.

The sparkling eyes stared straight at Li En, and the girl's fragrance gently fanned Li En's face along with her hot and rapid breathing.

Li En put down his chopsticks and looked at the other person with a slightly raised corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong Akali?"

"me..."

Meeting Li En's gaze, the girl's face flushed.

She had just lied a few seconds ago, but now she had to expose herself. The girl felt extremely embarrassed for a moment.

Looking at Akali's appearance, Li En stopped teasing her.

"Akali, the 'friend' you just mentioned, could it be... yourself?"

"..."

Akali slowly lowered her head, avoiding Li En's smiling eyes.

The hands that were holding Li En's sleeves tightened even more, and the delicate and small feet hidden in the ninja shoes curled up unconsciously.

"...Um."

The sound was like the buzz of a mosquito and passed by in a flash.

Upon hearing this, Li En stretched out his right hand that was not held by Akali and placed it on her palm.

Then he gently took her hand and pulled her two small hands, which had calluses on the palms, in front of him.

Akali lowered her head and saw her palms exposed to Li En. An inexplicable sense of shame surged in her heart, making her subconsciously want to retract her palms.

However, Li En was faster than her. He gently closed his slender and powerful palms and held Akali's hands tightly.

"Hmm~!"

Akali struggled a few times, but had no choice but to look up at Li En with a pleading look.

What caught my eye was the other person's distressed and concerned look.

"It must be very hard to master this martial art."

"Woo~! Brother Li En~!"

Akali felt her eyes sore and she threw herself into Li En's arms.

The stubborn ninja girl had all her defenses removed by Li En's words.

...

After a long time, Akali came to her senses and felt that the place where she was standing was wet with tears, so she quickly got up from Li En's arms.

"Sorry, Brother Li En, I will wash this dress for you..."

"It's okay Akali."

Li En took a silk handkerchief and gently wiped away the faint traces of tears on Akali's face.

"Om~!"

The golden-red aura flashed away, and the clothes on Li En's chest became dry again.

Seeing this, Akali showed a hint of envy in her eyes.

"Haha~! Do you want to try my method? Maybe after tonight you will be able to possess 'magic'."

“Really…really!?

No, Brother Li En, this won't hurt you, right?"

"Don't worry, I'm the one chosen by the 'Spirit of the Dragon', nothing will happen to me."

"That..."

"Come on, let's go to the room on the second floor."

...

After setting up many barriers, Li En looked at Akali, who was standing in the room, looking a little nervous and excited.

She has a petite but well-proportioned figure, and especially due to years of martial arts training, her waist is slender and flexible, forming a sharp contrast with the explosive body below.

"Don't worry, Akali. The process is not complicated. Just sit on the futon and meditate."

"Okay... okay Brother Li En..."

Akali nodded, but her steps were not as agile as usual. She sat on the mat somewhat stiffly.

Seeing the other party sit down, Li En also sat down opposite Akali.

"In a moment, I will use my own magic power as a guide to open the path to 'magic' for you.

The process may be painful, so please be prepared.”

"Yes, I will, Brother Li En!"

"Very good. Now, calm down and concentrate!"

As Li En's last four words fell, Akali felt all the distracting thoughts in her mind disappear.

He closed his eyes gently, and immediately fell into a state of peace.

Seeing this, Li En slowly raised his right hand and gently touched Akali's forehead with the tip of his index finger.

"Om~!"

The dreamy energy like the galaxy flowed into Akali's body through her eyebrows, and in an incredible way, it slowly created a magic circuit in her body without causing any rejection.

...

After connecting all the magic circuits in Akali's body together, Li En slowly removed his fingertips from the other's forehead.

"Hoo~!"

Li En let out a sigh of relief, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Without any deeper contact, he performed an extremely crude "ascension" for Akali, which could not even be considered a "Star Creation Ascension" at all.

Looking at Akali who was sitting quietly with her eyes closed, Li En carefully sensed her condition.

'Yes, everything is as expected.'

Li En nodded slightly and sat quietly on the futon waiting for the other party to wake up.

As time passed, traces of magic power unique to Akali slowly emerged from the new magic circuit.

More and more magic power gradually emerged from Akali's body.

“Swish~!”

A red arc of electricity suddenly flashed across Akali's body.
