Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 755: Bernie Asks for Help

"Bang~!"

Amid the maids' anxious looks, Qiana roughly kicked open her door and fell on the bed with a gloomy face.

After lying down for a while, Qiyana turned over and stared at the ceiling quietly.

"Hoo~!"

With a long sigh, Qiana slowly calmed down the fluctuating emotions in her heart.

She recalled her father Astaya's expression and attitude in the hall bit by bit. Although she had guessed that the matter involved by the mysterious monster was not simple, she still felt unwilling to give in.

In Qiyana's view, she, who is more talented than Xutar, was born to be the one to turn the tide and support the collapsing building at such a critical moment.

However, her father, Emperor Astaya, restricted himself to Ixoken at this time, which undoubtedly made Qiana, who could have won the support of the people and ascended to the throne with unstoppable momentum, become the same incompetent as the other nine sisters.

'No! I can't waste such a great opportunity. I should sit on the pedestal of Yuntar and receive the admiration of everyone in Ixtar!'

"Shua~!"

Qiyana got up from the bed and pressed the mechanism beside her.

"Click~!"

As the walls moved to both sides, weapons, clothing, accessories, and a variety of magical equipment appeared in front of Qiyana.

Qiyana quickly put on her equipment and picked up the Oreltar Ringblade.

She swung the sharp and dangerous weapon lightly and skillfully, and the magic flowed through it according to Qiyana's will.

“Pah, Pah, Pah!”

The branches and leaves of the green plants beside Qiyana trembled, and when they stopped again, the petite and graceful figure had disappeared.

...

Until the afterglow of sunset shone on the courtyard, Li En, who was sitting on a bench admiring the scenery of Ixuokun, still did not see Qiana.

Although he felt a little strange, Li En was not too anxious.

Li En stretched his body and was about to take out an ancient book to read, but he found that Camille, who was lying in the restoration device, moved her fingers slightly, and then her eyes slowly opened.

Seeing this, Li En had an idea and sent a message to Camille's soul.

'How do you feel, Camille?'

"Li En!?"

'it's me. ’

'You are... never mind, I feel much better now, thank you for everything you have done for me.'

'Well, you're welcome.'

Seeing that Camille didn't want to talk about her physical condition, Li En stopped asking.

"By the way, I never thought there would be such a mysterious and powerful country in the Kumanggu jungle!"

"I also found it from a broken ancient book, but you have been digging in the Hex Crystal Mine for so long, and you didn't find any traces at all?"

'No, I haven't found any trace at all. If I hadn't come here because of you this time, I might not know about this matter until I die.

Compared with this country, Piltover is ridiculously weak. It's a pity those families dared to destroy the jungle so wantonly.

I guess the reason why all the mines lost contact is that their actions angered this country.'

'Maybe that's part of the reason, but it's not the main reason.'

"That's because..."

"Ta-ta-ta~!"

The sound of hurried footsteps interrupted their conversation. Li En looked up and saw a hurried figure walking quickly towards them from a distance.

"We'll talk about it next time. Take a good rest first."

'Yeah, okay.'

Camille closed her eyes tiredly and fell into a deep sleep again, while Li En stood up and walked towards the courtyard gate.

"Benny, why are you here?"

"I'm very sorry, Master Li En. Master Qiyana is unable to come because of something else. She asked me to give this to you, saying that it will be helpful for your friend's recovery."

"Okay, I'll take it. Thank Her Highness Qiana for me."

"Yes, Lord Li En."

Benny nodded, then quietly raised her head and glanced at Li En, looking a little hesitant.

"What's wrong, Benny, do you have anything else to say?"

"Master Li En...I..."

"Your Highness Qiyana is devoted to my friends. If there is anything you need my help with, please let me know."

“Yes, thank you, Master Li En.

Um...I...I would like to ask you to go and persuade Lady Qiana."

"Persuade her? Did something happen?"

“Yes, Lady Qiana violated His Majesty’s order and tried to forcibly leave Ixoken, but was stopped by people specially arranged by His Majesty and sent back to the palace.

Now the Lord has driven everyone out, and she is the only one left in the palace..."

When Benny said this, her voice involuntarily weakened.

"So you want me to go and persuade her?"

"Yes, it is..."

"But what right do I have to counsel her? After all, we've only known each other for less than two days."

“No…it’s not like that, Lord Li En!

From childhood to adulthood, I... I have never seen Lady Qiyana pay so much attention to someone. You... you are definitely different in her heart!"

"Uh..."

In fact, Li En really wanted to say that it was because he used the absolute gap in strength to make Qiyana deeply aware of her wrong behavior.

But looking at Benny, whose body was trembling slightly but who was still trying hard to stand in front of him, Li En finally did not reveal the truth.

"Okay, Penny, lead the way."

"Yes, thank you Master Li En!"

"You're welcome."

Li En poured the emerald green potion given to him by Benny into the treatment device, and at the same time quietly cast a magic circle for Camille. Then he left with Benny.

"Benny."

"Yes, Master Li En!"

"Don't be nervous. I just want to ask about Her Highness Qiana's situation. After all, I will try to enlighten her later."

"Yes, sir..."

Facing Li En's gaze, Benny calmed down the timidity in her heart. After a brief silence, a hint of sadness appeared on her face.

"Actually... Lady Qiana... has always been lonely..."

...

The two of them walked and talked all the way to the outside of the palace.

The maids guarding the periphery relaxed their tense expressions a little when they saw Li En standing beside Benny, but they did not come over. They just stood there quietly, observing him curiously.

"Master Li En, please follow me."

"Ok."

Under the gaze of everyone, Benny took Li En into the palace.

After walking through the gorgeous and ostentatious interior of the building, the two came to two tightly closed doors.

Li En waved his hand to signal Benny to leave and raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong~!"

"roll!"

"It's me, Qiyana."

"Lee...Lee En!?"

"Yes."

"Click~!"

The door opened, and through the tiny gap, an eye like an orange-yellow cat's eye looked at Li En through the gap.
