First, take down the Sword Demon, then save Runeterra.

"Is everything in the newspapers true?"

Ato nodded slightly, and with a councilor personally confirming it, Sett's expression immediately fell.

"I really like this arena. The money I earn is enough for my mom and me to live a good life. It's a pity we have to leave."

Riven asked, "What are you planning to do? General Jericho stipulates that only half of a family can leave, and it's not convenient for us to make exceptions for you..."

Sett shook his head: "I don't plan to separate from my mom, so I'm not going to the new city. I plan to go back to Ionia and come back after the crisis is over."

"But at least there's no one discriminating against you in Noxus. Going back might just mean you'll be bullied..."

"Hehe, Master, you haven't taught me for nothing. Now even high-ranking military officers and famous mercenaries can't beat me. Who would dare to bully us? I'm itching for a fight."

"Alright," Riven didn't try to dissuade her further. "You must protect your mother. By the way, what happened to your father?"

When that person was mentioned, Sett's face darkened: "After I defeated him head-on, I made him kneel in front of my mother and apologize."

"Back then, my master and Councilman Swain went to Demacia for peace talks, so they sent other high-ranking military officers to oversee things. My mother asked that man if he had ever loved us, and under pressure from the officers, his answer was..."

"At first, there was a little bit, but only a little bit. He was with my mother simply because he was attracted to the unique appearance of the Vastaya people. For him, the most important things were always money and honor, for which he would give up everything."

"And then what?" Riven's eyes lit up. Girls of all types love to hear gossip.

Sett sighed. "My mom cried her eyes out, slapped him, and left. In the end, for violating military discipline, Noxus sentenced him to permanent disqualification from the military and citizenship, and he spent the rest of his life in prison."

"Serves him right!" Riven clapped her hands and cheered. "A slap isn't enough for an irresponsible man like that; he should get at least a hundred times the slap, don't you think?"

Ato couldn't help but shudder, nodding subconsciously: "That's right, one slap wasn't enough..."

In this world, most people don't place much importance on gender morality, especially in the open-minded Noxus, where abandoning one's family is almost never condemned.

His father almost faced the death penalty, clearly because Swein had instructed the military court before leaving. There was nothing he could do; his father had caught the attention of the Supreme Leader…

Pure love warriors like Ashe and Fryegor are rare.

Sett didn't want to talk too much about his father, so he asked instead, "Master and Mistress, are you going to stay and fight the 'great warlord' mentioned in the newspapers?"

Ator nodded: "Someone has to step up. If no one stops him, the entire Valoran, except for Freljord, will probably be destroyed."

He didn't mention other continents because one had Azir, the strongest ascendant, and the other had all sorts of gods.

Furthermore, Azir and Swain had an agreement that Azir would receive Swain's help when Mordekaiser entered reality, but since the battlefield was in Noxus, without the desert environment of Shurima, he might not be able to unleash his full power.

Sett's furry ears drooped: "Master, there are millions of enemies! No matter how strong you are, you will eventually run out of strength. What if you are captured by a warlord and taken to the underworld? I will never see you again?"

Riven smiled and stepped forward, ruffling her apprentice's head. He was now almost as tall as her.

"Silly child, did you not read the notice carefully? Your master's wife has already united many powerful forces. When the underworld descends, they will all take action. We are not fighting alone."

Sett asked doubtfully, "But I heard from others that it was just a rhetoric used by the council to reassure people, and that there are actually no reinforcements at all, and that the Immortal Fortress is doomed."

“Facts will tell.” Ato had already anticipated that his words would not have a good effect. “I am a member of parliament who rarely appears in public and has no reputation, but I hope they will not be surprised when they see various forces coming together.”

"I trust my master's wife!" Sett perked up. "By the way, master's wife, could you help me and my mother find a boat? Looking at the traffic jam outside, I'm afraid we won't be able to get tickets..."

Riven chuckled: "That's easy. Your master's wife can teleport, she can teleport you and your son directly to Ionia in less than a minute!"

“Teleport…” Sett looked at Ator with admiration.

"Weren't you going to check out the New Immortal Fortress?"

“Hey, we can go anytime. Their safety is more important,” Riven said softly. “Things are already in chaos outside. People are on the verge of collapse. His mother isn’t in good health, and I’m worried something might happen to her.”

Atto nodded and said, "Pack your luggage and call your mother up."

Sett turned and went downstairs. When he came back up a few minutes later, he was carrying a large bag on one arm and holding his mother, Tina, a wolverine Vastaya, by the other.

"We're troubling you both again, not only for tutoring my son but also for offering to take us home," Tina said, bowing politely.

“You’re welcome, we all like this child.” Ato took out the Darkin Staff from its sheath and made contact with the fixed teleportation array in the back mountain of the Wuji Sect.

At this moment, what he was thinking about was the exhilarating feeling of dealing two thousand true damage with a single punch. How could he not like Sett? Anyone who could hold back their laughter when a marksman was instantly killed with a punch is a god.

The magic circle was quickly drawn, and with a flash of inspiration, the four figures disappeared from their original spot and returned to Ionia.

"This is the Wuji Cult. This is my first time here." Sett looked around curiously. He and his mother had never been up Wuji Mountain since they left the Wolverine tribe and moved there.

"Hey! Sett, how come you've grown so tall? And so much stronger?"

A gasp came from the side.

"Ah you are……"

The monkey with the hairy face and thunderous mouth scratched its ears and cheeks, and yelled, "Seti, don't you recognize me, Old Sun? Humph, I took care of you for nothing back down the mountain!"

Sett slapped his forehead: "Sorry, Goku! The fog was too thick here, so I didn't recognize you right away. Long time no see, friend!"

The monkey was so excited that Sergei grabbed it and nearly broke all its bones.

"Cough cough, you... let go... hurry up and let go..."

They were greeted by the Vastaya of the Simi Ape tribe, and Sun Wukong, another outstanding disciple of Master Yi.

Sett put Goku down, and the latter said aggrievedly, "I can recognize you even though you've changed so much, but you can't recognize me!"

"Hehe... Sorry, friend."

Just then, Master Yi, the leader of the Wuji Sect, landed on a cloud, looking quite like an immortal.

"Guests are guests, Wukong. Take this mother and son to the pavilion on the front mountain to catch up. I have something to say to these two."
