Legends of Runeterra

"Anyway, these are just the imaginations of those two idiots, Shen and Jie. Kennen, don't blame Brother Li En, okay?"

Although Kennen fully understood the whole story after Akali's explanation, his heart sank quietly when he saw her pleading eyes.

For no other reason than that, from childhood to adulthood, Kennen had never seen Akali so concerned about a member of the opposite sex.

In addition, Li En solved Akali's magic talent problem which had become a knot in her heart.

As Kenan has lived for countless years and has spent thousands of years in the human world alone, it is easy for him to see the little thoughts hidden deep in the ninja girl's heart.

Even though Li En was indeed the most powerful human Kennen had ever seen, when he turned into a spherical plasma and rushed towards the opponent, he also felt an extremely powerful force protecting Akali.

Furthermore, a long time ago, when he hurried all the way to the Temple of Pallas to track down the Darkin who had broken the seal, what he finally met was a strange being controlled by two human consciousnesses.

After a conversation and examination, he confirmed that Li En had used some unknown means to seal the Darkin tightly while protecting the two human consciousnesses.

Kennen, the leader of the Sun-Seeking branch of the Order of the Balance, already knew all of Li En's deeds.

His strength, wisdom, character, etc. are all among the best in the world.

"Alas! The only thing is, this guy is too fickle..."

Kenan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows in distress, sighing silently in his heart.

"Okay, I get it Akali."

"Hehe~! I knew you were the best, Kenan~!

When my mother and the others come over later, please help explain it to me. I will make your favorite fish ball ramen!"

"Okay, okay, I will."

Feeling Akali's small hands kneading his shoulders just right, Kennen smiled and responded.

"Akali."

"Brother Li En~!"

“Ahem! Um…Uncle Kennen, Akali.”

Shen coughed tactically and greeted the two of them.

As for Jie, with his senior brother leading him, he certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to get close to Master Kennen again.

"Humph!"

"Heh~! Are you healed?"

"Yes, Uncle Kenan, thanks to Li En for treating us."

As soon as Shen finished speaking, he saw Kennen's only exposed eye narrowed slightly.

At this moment, his Ren and Du meridians of social skills had been opened, and he quickly added.

"Of course, it's also thanks to Uncle Kenan for showing mercy."

"Haha~! Now that everything is ready, you and Jie should write a battle report tonight, in secret font, sixteen inches long, and hand it to me before sunrise tomorrow morning!"

"Ah this..."

Shen and Jie, who was standing silently beside him, were stunned on the spot.

The secret font, sixteen inches long, and the requirement to complete it before sunrise meant that this was no longer a test of knowledge, but purely a test of their maximum writing speed.

"Hmm? Why, is it not enough to finish writing your reflections? Then I'll give you some more?"

"No! That's enough, uncle. I'll go right away!

Li En, Akali, we are leaving first!"

"Master Li En, Uncle Kenan, goodbye!"

Shen and Jie simply bowed and left quickly.

In the distance, Kayn watched his master leave and immediately turned around and evacuated.

"Hoo~!"

A cool breeze deliberately blew towards Kayn's neck from behind.

Kayn turned around and bowed without even raising his head.

"Disciple has met the master!"

"Kayn, my good disciple, did you see everything just now?"

"Master, disciple..."

"Haha~! That's okay. Seeing this kind of battle with your own eyes will help you realize that there are always people who are better than you and there are always better things to do."

"Yes, Master, I will remember your teachings!"

Kayn's tense mood relaxed slightly, and he quickly responded respectfully.

“Very good, since you have watched such a battle, I believe you have gained a lot of insights.

The ciphertext is eight inches long and must be placed on my desk at sunrise tomorrow!"

"Master...Master..."

"Hmm? Why, is it not enough to finish writing your reflections? Then I'll give you some more?"

"No! That's more than enough Master!"

"Ah."

Zed nodded, and at an angle where Kayn couldn't see, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

The next moment, Jie's figure disappeared into the shadows.

Sensing his master's departure, Kayn's face, which had been simply treated but was still bruised and swollen, wrinkled in pain.

As an orphan, Kayn's education level was barely up to "prenatal education" before he was spotted by Jie and accepted into the Shadow Sect.

After joining the Shadow Sect, what bothered him most were the various secret codes.

It’s not that it’s difficult to learn, but the simple-minded boy believes that strength is the only guarantee of survival, so he has no interest in these troublesome and lengthy secret codes.

Now Jie's arrangement can be said to hit the vital point directly.

'Damn it! Writing is such an annoying thing!

Strength, I must find a way to quickly increase my strength!

When the time comes, wait for me. After I take your place, I will definitely ask you to write an 80-inch battle experience!'

Looking at the direction where Jie left, Kayn quietly clenched his fists, and then sneaked into the shadow and left.

In the spiritual world, after seeing the cordial interaction between the master and disciple out of curiosity, Jie felt much better and rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

'Perhaps it's time for me to start training a disciple?'

...

"Ramen is here~!"

With a crisp and lovely cry, Akali came to the dining table with a tray and three bowls of ramen.

"Click~!"

"Fish ball ramen, made with fish freshly caught from the stream~!"

"Well, thanks, Akali."

Kennen took off his mask and looked at the extremely well-behaved Akali, with a gratified smile on his face.

"Hehe~! It's my duty~! Brother Li En, this is yours."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work Akali, sit down and eat."

"Uh-huh."

Akali nodded, and then sat next to Li En without any hesitation.

'this...'

Kenan looked at the two people sitting almost together and the two identical bowls of sea bream ramen, and the smile on his face froze.

This was clearly the 'daughter' that he had raised, so why was it that Li En and her were now more like a family?

Not only were they sitting together, they were also eating the same kind of ramen.

The aroma of fish ball ramen slowly drifted into Kenan's nose, but for some reason his appetite was not as strong as it was at the beginning.

The dinner that made Kennen inexplicably melancholy finally ended. Akali looked at Li En, then at Kennen.

"Brother Li En...I...I want to go back to the mountain gate first..."
