Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 58 Elise’s Secret

That night, Cassiopeia came back from a tea party with her mother. Seeing Katarina's childish performance, Cassiopeia could hardly hold back her laughter.

However, she still cooperated with the other party's performance, showing a bit of jealousy, and then looked aggrieved.

"Sister, you really misunderstood me! Although Brother Li En is my engagement partner now, I have never thought of monopolizing him!"

"Humph! Stop pretending. Don't I know you?"

"Why are you so hostile? We are sisters! Besides, sister, do you really think I'm the only one who likes Brother Li En?"

"What do you mean?"

"Haha, tomorrow evening, Brother Li En's carriage will most likely pass by Charan Street. You will know if you run into it by chance!"

Cassiopeia gave a meaningful smile, turned and left, while Katarina stayed where she was.

...

On the second day, after finishing today's arcane course, Li En met Katarina on his way back.

After checking each other's oral health, Catalina declined Li En's offer to take her in a carriage, saying that she still had to train, and left in a hurry.

That night, Catalina came to Cassiopeia's courtyard.

Looking at the cold-faced girl, Cassiopeia's lips curled up slightly.

"Good evening, sis! Is everything going well?"

"who is it?"

"Iris Kisira, the famous patriarch of the Kisira family! Of course, her beauty is more famous than her power! Eh? Didn't Brother Li En tell you today?"

Cassiopeia's pretentiousness made Katarina's face darken.

"Of course I know!"

As someone who had received an aristocratic education, Catalina naturally knew how powerful the Kisira family was. Families like Du Kekao that had been away from the Immortal Fortress for a long time, even three or four combined, could not match them.

Li En basically told her everything that night, but she never expected that the beautiful and cold Iris had the same good taste as her.

"So, cooperation?"

"...Tell me about it!"

That night, the sisters, who had not communicated much since they were old enough to understand, sat at a table and discussed something.

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

In recent times, Li En has lived a peaceful and comfortable life.

After breakfast in the morning, I went to Iris's mansion to learn arcane knowledge.

After Li En's repeated requests and strong efforts, Iris was able to replenish her good energy every day, but instead, she could no longer suck Li En's legs weak like before.

After finishing his studies in the evening, Li En would go to visit Du Kecao and see Katarina and Cassiopeia.

The relationship between the two sisters has improved greatly recently. They are no longer like the disdainful look they had when they mentioned each other before. Li En, who was originally worried about a conflict between the two, was greatly relieved.

As for Tyrone, this guy went on missions so frequently that he could barely find time to have a meal. At the dinner table, Li En strongly condemned Du Kecao's exploitative behavior.

Although Tai Long didn't understand, he didn't object.

...

In a blink of an eye, it was a month later. After letting Iris replenish her energy, Li En urged her to start teaching quickly.

"Hurry up! Sister Iris, let's start the class! I feel like I can probably step into the Arcane Hall today, and becoming an Arcane Master is just around the corner!"

“Hey, I’ve actually finished learning it!”

Iris spread her hands and winked playfully, but what she said made Li En completely stunned.

"Wha...what's over?"

"Arcane knowledge!"

"How...How is this possible! Are you kidding me!"

"What a joke! I'm serious! Little Apple, you don't think arcane knowledge is easy to come by. All of this was analyzed from ancient relics, and then tested by generations of wizards to confirm its safety and feasibility, and finally summarized!"

"But...but what we are learning now are just the basics!"

"Ah, yes! What else?"

Li En looked at Iris's deadbeat look and said angrily, "Then why are you sucking my blood today!"

"Who told you to be so skilled? I didn't even have time to speak! But, I have a book about the cultivation knowledge of the natural mage. Do you want it?"

Upon hearing this, Li En immediately extended his hand without any hesitation.

"Call sister!"

"elder sister!"

"Haha, take it!"

Iris waved her hand, and a pile of books nearly one meter high appeared beside her.

Li En was a little surprised and quickly stuffed all the books into the magic pocket.

"Thank you, sister. You are so nice. Goodbye, sister!"

Li En, who had gained benefits, was afraid that the other party would go back on his word, so he offered three rewards in a row and ran away.

Iris just watched with a smile.

Hundreds of years ago, on her wedding night, the moment the guy who was called her husband but was actually a puppet stepped into the room, she drank the poisoned wine with him.

She had already prepared the antidote and survived. She took control of the other party's family in the name of wife and expanded her own power.

Then, she came into contact with the darkness deeper within the empire and bowed down before the mysterious mistress of the 'Black Rose'.

Obey the other party's orders and go to the overseas ruins to search for valuable items.

As a result, Elise encountered the being who granted her a long life - the Vile Maw.

The price is just to sacrifice a few living people every year, and He does not need good people. On the contrary, the more evil and bloody the villains are, the more He likes them.

Seeing the other party's satisfied sounds when devouring those villains, Iris, who had just become his follower, also tried to absorb a female prisoner.

But the feeling of filth and chaos still made her feel sick when she thought about it.

Then, Li En appeared, and the pleasant smell she exuded made her extremely excited.

Due to the trauma from the past, she had been observing for a long time, and only after Li En disappeared and came back did she make up her mind to give it a try. After all, if he disappeared next time, she might never see him again.

When the first mouthful of blood and essence flowed into the air, the wonderful taste made Iris almost unable to maintain her disguise, and the true face of her followers was revealed.

Fortunately, hundreds of years of life had given her enough control over her own strength, and she was able to control herself at the last moment and not suck Li En into a shell.

Of course, this is also inseparable from the little reminder from the Lord of the 'Black Rose' when she lost her mind.

As a follower, Iris should have presented such a delicacy to Him, but unfortunately, Iris, who was already dependent on this taste, would never let the other party know of Li En's existence.

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

Li En, who was taking a quick look at his spoils in the carriage, was shocked by the complete and detailed contents.

"Oh no! How could Iris be willing to give me a book like this? Is there a big trap?"

Li En felt somewhat uneasy in his heart and returned to the Reyes family with trepidation.

As soon as he got off the carriage, the servant came to tell him that Hilda wanted to see him, so Li En went straight to the study.

"Good day, Lady Hilda!"

"Well, without further ado, this is the task assigned by that adult, you can take a look first!"
