Legends of Runeterra

"Uh... Li En, you seem to... know Talia?"

"what!?"

Hearing Kassadin's words, Taliyah looked up at Li En in surprise.

After just a quick glance, Talia immediately lowered her head shyly, and at the same time confirmed in her heart that she had never seen Li En.

After all, with such a beauty, she would never forget it once she saw it.

“No, this is the first time I’ve met Taliyah, but her master is my friend.”

"Master Li...Master Li En, are you talking about Master Yasuo!?"

"Yes, Yasuo from the Wind Sword School."

"Yes, he is my master!"

Thousands of miles away, Taliyah suddenly heard the news about Master Yasuo, and a faint blush appeared on her wheat-colored cheeks due to excitement.

"Um... Lord Li En, my master..."

"He's very good, but he regretted not leaving his contact information before. However, after I told him that I had helpers in Shurima, he asked me to bring you a letter."

"Really!?"

"No, I'm sorry, Master Li En, I'm just a little too..."

"Haha~! It's okay, Talia, I understand how you feel. Here."

Li En flipped his palm and a letter appeared in his hand.

"Thank you, Master Li En!"

He bowed first, and then Taliyah took the envelope with both hands.

Seeing this, Li En smiled.

"You must be tired from the journey. Please follow me and we can sit down and talk slowly."

Taking the three of them into the reception room, the maids had already prepared various fruits and snacks.

"There are peaches!!"

Looking at the red and white fruit, Kasa let out a low cry of joy.

"Kasha, that's so rude."

"It's okay, Mr. Kassadin. These peaches are prepared for Kassadin. I'm so happy that she likes me."

Picking up the largest and reddest peach that had already been washed, Li En put it in Kasa's hand.

"Eat, Kasa, don't be polite with me."

"Ok!"

"Shua~!"

With a flash of light, the huge peach was split into four parts. Kasa picked up one quarter and handed it to Li En's mouth.

"Li En, you eat first."

"Thank you."

Looking at this scene, the expression on Kassadin's face couldn't help but become even more sullen.

“Here, Taliyah.”

"Thank you, Kasa."

" You're welcome."

Picking up the third copy, Kaisa handed it to Kassadin.

"Father."

"No need, Kasa, just eat it."

"Father, there are still many here!"

After saying that, Kaisa put it in front of Kassadin without hesitation, then picked up the last quarter and started eating it impatiently.

Seeing his daughter's happy face, Kassadin couldn't help but reveal a relieved smile on his face.

"Um... Lord Li En, can I..."

Holding Yasuo's letter, Taliyah looked at Li En with anticipation.

"Of course, this is the letter Yasuo originally gave you, so feel free to read it.

Also, your master is also my friend, so you don’t have to call me sir.”

"Yes, thank you Mr. Li Enda...!"

"Ah."

Looking at Li En's smile, Talia's cheeks flushed slightly, then she lowered her head and carefully opened the envelope.

Along with the letter paper appeared a fiery red maple leaf.

After touching the maple leaf, Talia quickly unfolded the letter and began to read.

Seeing this, Li En and the other two stopped looking at Talia and let her read the letter in peace.

"Mr. Kassadin, I thought you would arrive in Uzeris before me, but you just arrived now. Did you encounter any trouble along the way?"

"It's not a big deal, we..."

“Li En, at first my father and I went back to our hometown, gathered ourselves together at the ruins of the abandoned village, and paid tribute to my mother.”

Seeing that Kassadin couldn't wait to speak, he stopped talking and let his daughter talk while he picked up the fruit he was interested in and tasted it.

From his knowledge, even the few city lord-level bigwigs he had met before could not compare to the variety and quality of fruits on Li En's table.

After leaving the village, Kassadin and his daughter began their journey towards Uzeris.

While tracking a void nest on the way, they happened to meet Taliyah and the migration team she was guarding, who were planning to pass through Kolihase and head to the legendary oasis "Zoran".

After some communication, Kassadin determined that the direction Taliyah and the others were heading in was exactly where the Void Nest was located.

After informing the other party of the news, and since Taliyah and the others had witnessed the horror of the void creatures with their own eyes, everyone except Taliyah gave up the plan to go to Zolan and turned to another trading city to look for a way to survive.

As for Taliyah, she insisted on going to Zoran and trying to destroy those void creatures.

In response to this, Kassadin and his daughter, who had just planned this, invited the other party to go together, mainly to ensure the safety of this kind girl. After all, the void creatures are too strange.

In the process of crossing Kolihase, the three even encountered the most terrifying existence in the legend of the Shurima caravan - the Queen of Axe, who was simply named Rek'Sai, a void-burrowing beast whose size was far superior to that of her own kind.

It was an extremely dangerous battle, but fortunately there were Kassadin and Kaisa.

After a fierce battle, in which Rek'Sai lost an arm and a large number of Ax'Sai, it realized how difficult the three people were and finally chose to escape into the void portal.

"Kasha, are you injured?"

"I'm fine, Li En, don't worry. The jade pendant you gave me hasn't been triggered yet!"

Looking at Li En, who was worried and leaning on her shoulder to sense the situation, Kassa felt a warm feeling in her heart.

After this series of contacts, the slight awkwardness in my heart caused by not seeing each other for a long time and the luxurious building completely disappeared.

"Yes, it's okay. After all, Rek'Sai has been in Shurima for hundreds and thousands of years. You must be careful with such beings. Do you understand?"

"Yeah, I know. I have been wearing the jade pendant you gave me carefully!"

"Really? Where?"

"exist..."

Kassadin paused, and a blush appeared on her fair face despite the long journey. After hesitating for a moment, she secretly glanced at Kassadin who was eating fruit beside her, then slightly turned her body, and the clothes under her cloak that were camouflaged by the "Void Symbiote Armor" opened and closed again, and a flash of golden red passed by.

"This jade pendant is so white!"

With these words echoing in his heart, Li En quickly adjusted his stunned mood.

"Well, just keep the jade pendant with you."

"Okay, I remember."

"And after that, did you arrive at 'Zoran'?"

"Of course, we arrived at Zoran, but it's no longer an oasis. It's all sand and rocks, without a single green spot!"

"By the way, Li En, Kasa and I also met a...woman!"

Concentrating on tasting the precious fruit that he had never eaten before as a guide, Kassadin suddenly looked up and added a sentence, and when he said the word "woman", there was a bit of doubt and a bit of... fear.
