Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 832 Soraka's Request

"I can't tell you too much at the moment, but the fact is that we have different attitudes towards that 'great being'.

It’s a pity that ambitious and arrogant people make up the majority.

Before we even noticed, they secretly wove that ‘festival of disobedience’...”

At the end of her speech, Soraka's voice gradually became quieter, and an inexplicably complicated expression appeared on her face.

Li En did not say anything to disturb the other party, but just waited quietly for her to adjust.

After a while, Soraka raised her head and looked at him seriously.

"Li En, we deserve the punishment for our mistakes, but you, who possess this 'gift', may be able to save this innocent planet when 'that existence' rains wrath upon Runeterra."

"But... will that 'great being' really harm Runeterra? Doesn't He have love for all the stars?"

"Maybe, maybe not. Runeterra was not created by Him, and the 'Ceremony of Disobedience' was held on the top of the Giant God Peak at our feet."

"I have no intention of speculating or misinterpreting the thoughts of that 'great being', but Li En, the anger of being deceived and even enslaved is only the aftermath, and it is not something Runeland can bear."

Looking at Soraka's solemn expression, Li En also frowned slightly and began to think.

Regarding the Star-Forging Dragon King, the few relevant words of information from his previous life certainly allowed Li En to understand him a little.

But obviously, for such a "great being", this information is too insignificant.

Although Li En seized the 'power of ascension' from the Darkin Varus, and refined and purified it infinitely through the 'void', he finally obtained an extremely tiny trace of the 'great power'.

When he was promoted to the [Legend] rank, Li En used this 'great power' to create an almost impossible miracle - contacting the Star-Forging Dragon King and obtaining his 'gift'.

But during this whole process, Li En was in an unconscious state and was unable to communicate even a brief sentence with that "great being".

Li En is temporarily reserved about whether the Star-Forging Dragon King will vent his anger on the planet Runeterra when he is finally freed from trouble.

But as Soraka said, when the Star Forger took revenge on the Titans, even the aftermath of his wrath would be enough to put Runeterra in danger of annihilation.

Thinking of this, Li En looked up at Soraka.

"I understand, Ms. Soraka. May I ask...how can I grow faster?"

"Haha~! Don't worry, Li En. At least the Rune Land will not be harmed until I fall."

"But..."

"Li En, I understand your idea, but your current strength still has a lot of room for growth. As the Ionian saying goes: 'When the sky falls, it needs tall people to hold it up.'"

"..."

"I understand ma'am, I will work hard to grow up!"

"Well, that's great, but I do have something I need your help with."

"Please tell me."

Under Li En's gaze, Soraka picked up an ancient scroll made of some animal skin and slowly spread it out.

"Li En, have you heard of the 'Laqor Tribe' at the foot of Mount Targon?"

"I have heard that they are ancient and powerful, and are well-known throughout the land of Shurima.

Additionally, they appear to hold regular rituals to climb Mount Targon, seeking the attention of the celestial beings above them."

"Yeah, that's right."

Soraka nodded, then a sad look appeared on her face.

"But the problem lies in this climb..."

Soraka said, motioning for Li En to look at the unfolded scroll.

On the ancient scroll, the sun and the moon appeared side by side in the center of the scroll, with warriors in golden armor and warriors in silver armor standing on the left and right of the sun and the moon.

They were not in opposition, but stood together on opposite sides of the scroll.

"This is..."

"Initially, the mortals' 'belief' in gods was the coexistence of the sun and the moon. However, after a long time, due to some overly fanatical believers and an accident, the belief in the moon gradually faded away, and the belief in the sun became the only belief of the 'Laqor' tribe.

However, this time, two qualified people climbed Mount Targon at the same time..."

Soraka's delicate lavender palm gently waved across the scroll, and the picture on the scroll began to ripple.

Gradually, a scene from another place appeared on the scroll.

Under the shining of the starry sky, a warrior wearing a golden and red skirt armor, holding a sword and shield, stood facing another warrior wearing silver-white armor and holding a strange arc-shaped weapon.

The flames of the sun and the light of the bright moon burned fiercely on their weapons.

"These two people are... Star Spirits!?"

“Yes, they are the star spirits chosen by the sun and the moon, but as ‘star spirits’, they are bound by the ‘beliefs’ of their mortal birth, and are even moving step by step towards becoming irreconcilable enemies.

God has never cared about that idea, but the two chosen ones have to fight to the death because of it..."

"Then... can't the giant gods of the sun and the moon expose that false 'belief'?"

“They have no intention of interfering in the affairs of ordinary beings. They hope that these two choosers can see through this fog on their own.”

"Is that so? What do you want?"

"Maybe they can do it, maybe they can't, but in the process, those innocent people can't stand the burning of 'Sunfire' and 'Moonfire'. I hope you, Li En, can you protect those innocent people a little bit, okay?"

"no problem!"

Since Soraka has said this, Li En naturally will not make any excuses.

"Well, I'll leave it to you, Li En."

"Don't worry, at least I will protect those innocent people."

Li En said this and suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, Ms. Soraka, if I intervene, the giant gods of the sun and moon won't mind, right?"

"Haha~! Don't worry about this, they definitely won't mind.

If you do well enough, you may even be recognized by them."

"Then... the relationship between these two giant gods and you..."

"Guess it?"

Soraka said, blinking her golden eyes at Li En.

Obviously, even if these two giant gods are not on Soraka's side, they will definitely not support those who disobey.
