I, Folyago, am the most devoted lover in Runeterra.

It's just unknown what strategy she will adopt this time.

This direct attack, while annihilating all the members of the Black Rose, also brought Foygo to the forefront, exposing him to the Black Rose's view.

Next, Fóyego will also lose the advantage of being in the dark while the enemy is in the light.

However, none of this matters. Once the dust settles on this battle, the situation in the empire will be settled.

Swain will lose, and he must lose!

Without Swain's defeat, there would have been no birth of the Noxian Grand Master!

While Swain was destined to lose, the way he "lost" must be carefully planned.

This must be accomplished through LeBlanc's efforts.

Otherwise, once Swain comes to power, with the help of the demon Ram, he can easily trace back to the mastermind behind it all.

Therefore, LeBlanc cannot be withdrawn from the market yet.

Fryego needs to use LeBlanc to complete his final scheme.

Next, Fryego only needs to wait quietly in Ionia for LeBlanc's arrival.

Once LeBlanc enters the fray, Folgyal will completely eliminate this pale phantom that has haunted the Empire for thousands of years in Ionia.

At the same time, there is one person that cannot be bypassed if LeBlanc is to be fully involved.

That was his uncle-in-law, Vladimir!

Thinking of this, a glint of light flashed in Foygo's eyes.

In the game of Empire, Vladimir plays an extremely crucial role.

There's no way to avoid it or get around it.

...........

For the empire, the Black Rose had long been ingrained in its very bones.

The Empire's desire to completely rid itself of the Black Rose's influence is nothing short of wishful thinking.

The Black Rose controls many important areas of the empire, and its power is truly terrifying.

No matter who is in power at this moment, no empire can ignore the influence of the Black Rose.

Even Swain, after becoming the Grand Master of Noxus, did not choose to undergo radical reform, but instead chose to form the "Trefal Council of Three".

That's enough to illustrate the point.

Therefore, if Fiorio wants to achieve his goal, the Black Roses are an unavoidable force.

As the saying goes, power is neither good nor bad.

If you use righteousness, it will be righteous; if you use evil, it will be evil.

The same applies to the Black Rose organization.

Since we cannot destroy it, we should try to coexist with it.

But achieving this is not easy.

The current leaders of the Black Roses are LeBlanc and Vladimir.

Fouguere has now openly appeared and is now at odds with LeBlanc.

Given their previous interests, it's destined that only one of Foygo and LeBlanc will have the last laugh.

Therefore, LeBlanc has become an enemy that must be dealt with.

For Vladimir, however, the situation is far more complicated than for Fiorio.

At present, it seems that Fojego has Vladimir firmly under his control.

But everyone here is a cunning old fox who has lived for thousands of years, and Vladimir has no idea what cards he has up his sleeve.

While Vladimir may not necessarily have the ability to "fight back," his chances of survival are certainly very high.

The best-case scenario right now is that Foyego kills LeBlanc and joins forces with Vladimir, which would be mutually beneficial.

An even worse outcome would be if Fryego killed LeBlanc, alerting Vladimir and prompting him to fight to the death.

The specific outcome will depend on how Fryego handles the situation.

............

"Master..."

The young apprentice, with his proudly long legs, spoke in a quiet tone, his eyes filled with a hint of resentment.

Foygo chuckled to himself at his apprentice's resentment.

Ultimately, it all boils down to emotions like "the little girl's beloved doll was threatened."

The reason for all of this is quite straightforward.

The reason is simple: Riven's appearance and her somewhat "excessive" intimacy with Fryego just now touched a nerve with her apprentice.

The young apprentice had been watching the whole spectacle from the air.

When Syndra saw how well Riven and Fryegor complemented each other, she couldn't help but feel a little envious.

That's why the young apprentice was so resentful at that moment.

This made Fólya Gómez secretly chuckle to himself, as he was preparing to take his young apprentice to "broaden his horizons."

"My disciple, why do you do this?"

Foygo said this with a hint of teasing, which made his young apprentice blush.

The innocent and kind-hearted Syndra was powerless against Foygo's teasing and stammered for a moment, unable to answer.

I want to say something, but I don't know where to begin.

Seeing this, Foygo stopped teasing his young apprentice and quickly changed the subject, smoothly resolving the situation...

The young apprentice quickly forgot his earlier resentment after being amused by Foygo.

"Master, where are we going?"

The young apprentice then realized it was true, and tilted his head, asking Foygo in confusion.

Upon hearing his young apprentice's question, a serious look flashed in Foygo's eyes, and he slowly spoke.

“Disciple, today I will take you to see why we are gods.”

"Why would I do that?"

Folyago slowly explained, which only made his young apprentice more confused.

During this time, Foygo showed Sindra many things.

From the joys and sorrows of ordinary people and their daily lives, to the earth-shattering battles with the Darkin and the various tactics of the Black Rose.

Fóyego never offered much explanation for any of this.

Today, Fóyègo will also pass on the way of making a living to his young apprentice.

In Runeterra, having power does not guarantee a good start and a good finish.

Throughout Runeterra, whether it's the demigods like Ornn who align with the "good" side, or the Darkin and Folya'gods who align with the "evil" side...

Few of these demigods met a good end.

The root cause is a lack of "strategic thinking" and an overly simplistic approach to power.

Syndra is already Fougio's chosen main asset in the future.

Fóyego also has high expectations for her development.

After this period of travel, it was time for Foygo to "teach his apprentice a lesson".

Black divine light flowed, and so Foygo and his young apprentice temporarily left the continent of Ionia.

.................

Bilgewater, the kingdom remains as peaceful as ever.

In the very center of the city stands a cathedral with black and white stripes.

The church occupies a vast area, and at its very center stands a statue of a dark monarch.

Unlike the massive sword-wielding sculpture above Blood Harbor, this statue looks very kind and approachable.

The cathedral of the Dawn Order was filled with people from Port Piraeus who came to pray.

However, without anyone noticing, two streaks of dark light appeared in the church.

At the top of the statue, Foygo revealed himself with Syndra.

"look."

Foygo pointed to the people of Port Piraeus who were worshipping his sculpture below, and his young apprentice looked over, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"This is... Master?"

The young apprentice's tone was full of surprise, and his eyes showed a hint of confusion as he looked at Foygo.

"it's me."
