Legends of Runeterra

Walking along the road in the ruins, to Ezreal's surprise, there were no mechanisms on the road ahead.

However, this seemingly safe road made Ezreal more focused, and he concentrated on sensing any signs of something wrong.

"Woooooo~!"

"Um!?"

Ezreal paused and listened carefully.

"Uuuuuuuuu~!"

The faint sound seemed like the sound of wind coming from deep in the ruins, or like a child who accidentally got lost there.

"It does sound more like crying, but..."

After carefully observing for a while, Ezreal made a judgment in his heart.

Before entering the ruins, Ezreal estimated the general situation from the outside.

The ruins revealed by the cracks in the earth may indeed contain some unknown narrow passages.

But the possibility of a child running deep into the ruins is close to zero.

"Woooooo~!"

The faint sound of crying was still heard, but the expression on Ezreal's face became more excited.

An explorer is someone who is willing to risk his life to try to find the shocking secrets hidden in desperate situations.

What's more, with the 'Nezuk Armguards' and 'Uroa's Potion', Ezreal is confident to meet this challenge.

"Besides, I still have the life-saving jade pendant given to me by my good brother Li En!"

Touching the jade pendant in his arms, the last trace of worry in Ezreal's heart disappeared, leaving only 120% of confidence.

After adjusting his headlamp and checking his equipment again, Ezreal continued to go deeper into the ruins.

...

"Woooooo~!"

As Ezreal went deeper into the ruins, the sad crying sound became clearer and clearer. He could even tell from the crying that it was most likely coming from a little boy.

The narrow obsidian passage suddenly widened, and after taking another step, Ezreal found himself in a tomb.

The floor and walls made entirely of obsidian, the pure gold utensils piled on the ground, and the various gems inlaid on the walls exude a luxurious and charming glow under the light.

"They are all high-end goods worth a fortune!"

Looking at the wall full of sparkling "fire" gems, even the knowledgeable Ezreal couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

But it was only for a moment. Ezreal was not a money-obsessed person, and he did not forget where he was at the moment.

"Woooooo~!"

The mournful cry echoed in the tomb. Ezreal turned his head, and his headlamp shone towards the direction where the cry came from.

In a dark corner, a figure that looked like a child was sitting on the ground with his back to him.

The 'Nezuk Armguard' on the left arm has already been fully charged and can take Ezreal for arcane leap at any time.

"Hey~! Are you okay?"

"Wow! I...I don't know..."

The child didn't turn around, but he answered Ezreal's question.

Despite the strong accent and strange grammar, Ezreal understood the meaning of the words.

And from the other person's tone, I felt a lingering sadness and loss.

'We can communicate, and we don't feel any malice.'

Thinking in his heart, Ezreal tried to step into the tomb.

"Wow~!"

"Um!?"

The wet feeling on his feet made Ezreal subconsciously startled, and then an extreme chill instantly spread from his right foot to his whole body.

Just like taking off all clothes and jumping into icy water in the depths of winter, Ezreal instantly felt that he had lost perception and control of his body.

"This is the end! ! "

Ezreal, who couldn't even make a sound and whose breathing began to become paralyzed, was extremely anxious.

"Om~!"

A golden-red aura rose from Ezreal's chest, dispelling the coldness that froze his body in an instant.

"Hoo~!"

Feeling weak, Ezreal took a deep breath and instinctively activated the 'Nezuk Armguards' to escape from here.

However, at this moment, a small hand wrapped in a linen shroud silently grabbed the corner of Ezreal's clothes.

"Woooooo~!"

"Big brother, can you... be my friend?"

...

"Um!?"

Li En suddenly turned his head and looked somewhere. His deep vision seemed to penetrate the wall and saw certain scenes.

"What's wrong honey?"

"It's okay, Peya, I just feel like a friend is in a little trouble."

"That friend triggered the jade pendant you gave me?"

Cassiopeia asked curiously, looking at the look on Li En's face.

"Yes, but it's not a big problem. He didn't meet any vicious and murderous creature."

"Oh, I see. That's good."

Hearing the word 'he', the curiosity that had just risen in Cassiopeia's heart was instantly extinguished.

The reason why I asked out of curiosity was that I had previously suspected that it was a 'sister' whom I had never met.

"Okay dear, this is the letter that was delivered this morning from the capital of Shurima."

"From the capital of Shurima? Sivir and Samira didn't leave the city today, so let's call them over to watch together."

"Of course, I have arranged for the maid to invite them."

At this point, Cassiopeia pinched the soft flesh on Li En's waist in a reproachful manner.

Since Li En returned to Uzeris, the three of them have never been absent, especially Samira and Sivir. They have been defeated over and over again, but they have fought again and again, and they can rest until noon every day.

Cassiopeia didn't understand at first, but now she finally came to her senses. These two people just wanted to use this excuse to avoid daily government affairs.

But Cassiopeia couldn't say anything. After all, even after going through the first stage of "Star Creation Ascension", Cassiopeia still couldn't do it alone and needed the cooperation of the other two.

"What's wrong, dear? I didn't make you angry, did I?"

"Hmph! Can't I pinch you?"

"Uh... okay, but don't blame me for fighting back."

"Hmm~!"

...

"Click~!"

"Dear, let's..."

Samira paused as she pushed the door open, causing Sivir to curiously stick her head out from the side.

"It's all your fault!"

The smooth and white little feet gently stepped on Li En's belly, and Cassiopeia quickly adjusted her posture and sat upright on the sofa.

"Ahem! Um, hurry up and take a seat. Someone from the Shurima capital has sent a letter."

"Oh? You're writing to us now?"

Samira said this, looking curiously at Sivir beside her.

"Yes, although the signature is to Lord Uzeris, it must also be related to Sivir, so I asked the maid to invite you to come and take a look."

Cassiopeia, who had regained her elegance and grace, said with a smile, rubbing her little feet inconspicuously on the carpet.
