Legends of Runeterra

"Shua~!"

A figure passed through the desert at night, making only a very faint sound in the air, which was lost in the slightly cool evening breeze.

Not far away, the state of the yellow sand began to change, and these loose materials began to compact into lumps.

Substances similar to tree roots broke through the hardened ground and twisted and tangled into strange shapes on the surface.

Kassa looked at the strange substance not far away, and a hint of excitement appeared on her tired face.

'Earth Hernia', commonly seen on the outskirts of Icathia, is proof of the Void breaking out from the ground.

Although with the fall of Shurima and Icathia, the true origin of this substance and the meaning behind it have long been unknown.

But anyone who wants to survive on this yellow sand knows very well that they must stay as far away from places with such structures as possible.

Of course, there are also some extremely foolish explorers who go deep underground along the gaps torn by the "hernia", but the final result is always the same - no one has ever returned alive.

This substance, which marks the extreme danger of this area, is Kasa's only hope now.

Since parting with Li En, Kai'Sa has been looking for her father in the southeast of Shurima.

But even though she visited almost all the cities and gathering places in the area, she never heard any news about her father from anyone.

In desperation, Kassadin could only try hard to track the traces of the void creatures and hunt them, trying to meet his father in this way.

After all, his wife and daughter 'died' due to the sacrifice of the 'Void Sect', and only endless hunting could ease the grief in his heart.

Although this method is very cumbersome, it is the only thing Kaisa can do now.

"I hope that this time... I can find your trace, father."

Her footsteps lightly tapped on the still warm yellow sand, and the evolved 'symbiotic armor' on Kassadin's body concealed her figure. She then jumped down towards the gap in the 'ground hernia'.

“Hoo~Hoo~Hoo~!”

The sound of wind rang in my ears, and the temperature dropped sharply, as if the bottom of this dark crack led to the underworld where the dead were reborn.

“Tsk~!”

Making a very slight noise intentionally, Kassa landed steadily on the ground.

Kassadin, who had previously removed a large number of 'hernias', turned her head casually, her brows slightly furrowed behind the face covered by the 'symbiotic armor'.

"This...seems a little different...

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any insect swarms sensing and coming over at this time, could it be..."

Sensing something unusual, Kassadin suppressed the excitement in his heart, controlled the 'Symbiotic Armor' to enter a completely hidden state, and quietly headed towards the place where he perceived the 'Power of the Void' to be the most concentrated.

...

“His ...

“Tear it up~!”

“Patta~Patta~!”

Kassadin felt extremely calm as he watched the Void Bugs that were roaring ferociously and rushing towards him being torn into several pieces of rotten meat and falling to the ground.

Perhaps after killing these ugly guys for the first time, Kassadin would feel a sense of revenge in his heart.

But he had no idea how many void creatures he had killed, how many sacrifices he had made to the 'Void Cult' organization, and now all that was left in Kassadin's heart was numbness.

He chased the trail of the 'prophet' and tried to kill him again and again, but it seemed that the prophet could always detect him at the critical moment, or it seemed that the prophet was just playing a trick on him.

Until now, he has never thrust the blade of revenge into the opponent's chest.

On the contrary, his body became more and more alienated during this process.

Kassadin's exposed arms and chest were now covered with a layer of blue-black, shell-like substance.

He didn't know how long he could hold on, nor did he know whether he could really succeed in his revenge.

Even since more than a year ago, he has not found any trace of that damn 'prophet'.

Now that he has returned from Icathia to the border with Shurima, he just wants to go back to that small village again before his final revenge and sprinkle some sand on that small grave for the last time.

Then, Kassadin would rush without hesitation to the deepest part of the underground of Icathia, which he had never made up his mind to enter from the beginning to the end.

'Wait, my dear, and Kesha, I will personally avenge you!'

Looking at the corpses of the Void Zerg on the ground, Kassadin swore a secret oath in his heart, and then was about to break through the space and leave.

'Um!?'

Kassadin frowned slightly under his helmet, and then without moving, he suddenly threw a purple-black magic ball behind him.

"Shua~!"

Kassadin, who had just entered the underground space, bent his waist and flew over the edge of the magic sphere.

Affected by the energy of the magic ball, the originally hidden figure also revealed a slight outline in the air.

Catch a glimpse of the clear human figure, and feel the extremely strong "power of the void" coming from the person, Kassadin's heart grew colder.

"Another scumbag bewitched by the 'Void'!"

"Wait..."

“Wow~~!!”

Kassadin waved his hand fiercely, and a surge of energy pulse like a wave suddenly rushed towards Kaisa.

The underground cave was not very wide, so it was almost impossible for Kassadin to avoid this pulse.

The 'Symbiotic Armor' suddenly turned into a solid armor in less than one hundredth of a second. Kassa raised her arms covered with thick armor to block in front of her.

"Bang~!"

“Sizzle~!!”

Kaisa took the blow head-on, leaving two long marks on the ground.

Since it was an energy pulse, the 'Symbiotic Armor' helped Kaisa resist most of the power, and also swallowed up a part of it to recharge itself.

But because of this, Kaisa's stealth form was completely broken, and her true appearance was revealed to Kassadin.

"Interesting. Did the Void Sect let you come here alone?"

Looking at Kaisa who blocked his attack but seemed unharmed, Kassadin felt a slight joy in his heart.

If for no other reason, the more special the 'Void believer' is, the more precious he is in the 'Void Sect'.

Killing such believers would deal a greater blow to the Void Cult, and Kassadin would be able to enjoy the pleasure of revenge.

Kassa also took this moment to look at the figure opposite.

A horn-like helmet covered the face, and two long tubes extended from the mouth and nose, across the chest, and to the back.

Two huge shoulder armors inlaid with purple gems, the chest is covered with armor-like blue-black hardened skin, and the whole person is suspended above the ground.

The most eye-catching thing is the purple energy blade extending from the opponent's right forearm.

On the edge of the blade, there was a faint black crack, and it seemed that just by existing there, the space was torn apart by this blade.
