lol: Bind Syndra at the start

Chapter 449 Ryan's Whisper

Under normal circumstances, if you want to win over someone or something, you usually show closeness first, then give them a gift or something, and finally express your thoughts.

But Ryan was too lazy to go through this tedious process, and this was Shadow Island after all. As long as you were not crazy, you would not think this place was normal.

Therefore, he can take another approach.

This method was something he learned from the strongest Pokémon trainer in his previous life. Before capturing a Pokémon, he had to defeat it first.

Fists are more effective than mouths in most cases.

"Just keep an eye on that... Never mind, Syndra will be watching."

Lion was afraid that Yorick would be killed by Kalista first.

The gravedigger had not received any serious combat training. Although he was persisting, he was actually walking on a tightrope every second.

No one knew if something might go wrong with him suddenly and he would be pierced by the dark spear.

A figure holding a big sword slowly approached, and black mist was surrounding him.

But unlike Kalista and the Maiden of the Mist, his black mist was very quiet... so quiet that it was like a completely dead lake.

“My name is Ledros.”

Ledros raised his head, revealing his handsome face, and introduced himself.

If you ignore the black fog surrounding him and his pale face, Ledros's image almost perfectly fits everyone's inner impression of a noble knight.

The combination of his strong facial features and the righteousness that lingered between his brows even after he turned into a ghost created a temperament that was countless times stronger than those actors Ryan had seen on the screen in his previous life.

"My name is Ryan."

Ryan responded politely, raising the 'sword' in his hand. A gust of gloomy wind swirled around the tip of the sword.

After leaving Ionia, or more precisely, after leaving the brothers Yasuo and Yone, he never used swordsmanship again.

But now he wants to pick it up.

“We don’t need a fight.” Ledros plunged his blade into the ground. “This could be a misunderstanding.”

"I don't think it's a misunderstanding."

Ledros continued explaining, "Kalista has been affected by the Black Mist. I can sense that the Black Mist around her is sending her a false message."

Ryan: "Then do you have a way to wake her up?"

"I......"

"I have."

“…We can try, huh?” Ledros paused. “What did you say?”

Ryan repeated, "I said, I have a way to restore her humanity and her emotions."

......

Ledros's hand gripping the hilt of the sword suddenly trembled.

This act, which went against the swordsman's code of conduct, revealed a drastic change in his heart.

"what is your purpose?"

Ledros is a good man.

But being a good person doesn't mean being brainless.

When the other party's words and deeds were very pointed, he knew that this was not an 'accident'.

This group of outsiders came just for him and Kalista. As for what role the black fog played in it... he didn't know, but it definitely couldn't be a good role.

Ryan asked, "Do you know what's happening in the depths of the curse?"

Ledros: “Yes.”

His strength is definitely among the best in the entire Shadow Island.

His powerful strength and clear mind allow him to grasp far more information than other evil spirits.

Ryan asked again: "Then do you know where the depths of the curse are?"

Ledros's gaze shifted. "...Your target is the king?"

"Do you still think he is your king?" Ryan laughed.

Ledros: “Why not?”

"Then where is his territory? This island beneath our feet?"

"All of Kamavia is the king's territory!"

"But Kamavia has been destroyed for nearly a thousand years." Ryan looked at the Knight of Justice opposite him and told him the cruel truth, "Your king withdrew the most elite troops in the country and then took them to die overseas.

"Can you guess what would have happened to those citizens of Kamavia whom you once swore to protect with your lives when they were invaded by other enemy nations?"

Ledros fell silent.

He could tell Ryan wasn't lying.

When an empire loses its military power, it is like a sheep walking into a pack of wolves.

"Do you think a king who is actively dragging the empire into the abyss is worthy of your loyalty?"

“I don’t…” Ledros hesitated.

But Ryan gave him a push in the end, "I will awaken Callista's humanity for you, and you lead me to the mad king, or maybe you can just tell me where the king is."

He looked deeply at Ledros. "And I doubt you don't hate him. You're no longer a knight. There's no need to cling to that old oath."

Kalista was once an outstanding female general, and Ledros was the most powerful swordsman in the Kamavia Empire.

This combination will create some sparks in any story.

As expected, the young swordsman gradually fell in love with the female general.

But at that time, Kamavia was already slowly declining, in order to maintain the stability of the regime.

The then King Viego decided to marry Kalista, who had royal blood, to the then famous general Hecarim in order to consolidate the royal family's ruling position.

In this way, the pair of mandarin ducks were separated.

Ryan's voice was still ringing.

clarity;

Calm.

But to Ledros, it stirred his inner emotions more than the crazy whispers in the black mist.

“…Think about it, if it weren’t for that mad king, Kamavia wouldn’t have fallen so quickly, and countless people wouldn’t have been bullied by the enemy country;

"And you can live happily with Kalista, you will have a wonderful family, and maybe even a pair of beautiful children.

"But now? You're left to languish in the Black Mist, while Kalista is forced to become an irrational vengeful spirit, and you're defending the man who caused all this?

"You...would rather let Kalista continue to sink into depravity than cling to your so-called chivalry?"

Ryan often feels that he has the potential to be a devil.

After all, he knew the lives of many 'heroes'.

It's so easy to poke holes in their hearts.

"boom!"

The heavy sword suddenly picked up a handful of dirt.

Ledros's gaze grew dark, and the surrounding black mist finally began to ripple.

He stared at Ryan for a long moment, then finally said, "What should I do? Just fight you?"

"Yes, you just need to play yourself well, and leave the rest to me."

Before Ryan finished speaking.

Ledros had already rushed up, and the huge sword with tremendous force smashed towards Ryan.

But Ryan reacted calmly to this unpretentious attack.

He flipped his wrist, and the gloomy aura that had been lingering around the tip of the sword for a long time was cut off.

An increasingly powerful tornado rushed towards Ledros's sword.

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

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

By the way, after this book is finished, if I start a League of Legends novel about becoming a demon, is there anyone who wants to read it?

Chapter 450 Only Love Can Overflow the Black Hole

Ryan could see that Ledros was now seeking revenge.

It was like pulling out a person who had buried his head in the sand, and then propping up his eyelids with his hands, forcing him to carefully look at the cruel truth that he had been avoiding.

As a human being, everyone has an escapist mentality.

When you encounter something uncomfortable, powerless and unable to change, you will always use various ways to convince and coax yourself... This is a self-protection mechanism of the human brain.

And this mechanism seems to have slowly seeped into the soul.

This is what happened to Ledros. He knows better than anyone what happened to Kamavia, and he knows better than anyone who stands between him and Kalista.

But faced with the paranoid Callista, he could neither change his feelings for her nor make her put him above the empire and its people.

This is often how tragedy occurs.

As the protagonist of the tragedy, the only thing Ledros could do was to mix his anger and grievances into the swing of his sword.

Lion knew what was going on, and was happy to see Ledros use his full strength.

He wasn't targeting anyone except Syndra.

All of them combined might not be his match. If Ledros still held back in this situation, it would be like a waste of time playing against a robot.

When the tornado was about to take shape, Ledros found the right opportunity and struck the eye of the tornado with his sword.

The heavy force interrupted the flow of air, turning the tornado into a scattered gale.

But Ryan's figure suddenly appeared behind Leroth, and a gust of wind that followed made Leroth's vision blurred.

At this moment, the long sword formed by darkness slashed down.

"boom."

Ledros instinctively swung his greatsword backhand, and the broad blade just blocked Ryan's attack.

But what followed was a sound similar to that of boiling water.

"Zizzizi..."

Where the Dark Sword and Ledros's greatsword touched, black mist began to rise.

This is not a manifestation of some kind of power, but the black fog is being "purified" by darkness.

The black fog surrounding Ledros began to expand and contract unsteadily. He could block the black fog's influence on his spirit and will, but he could not influence the black fog in turn.

When the black fog chose to "bend" in front of the darkness, Ledros's back seemed to suddenly hunch over.

Ryan frowned and casually made a sword flower.

The gloomy gust of wind transformed into invisible sword energy, pushing Ledros away.

"Can I still fight?"

A long sword also condensed in Ryan's other hand.

The Gale Sword Technique was used briefly twice;

But the Demon Sealing Sword Technique has not yet begun.

"can."

Ledros calmed the black mist again.

But the look he gave Ryan was less angry and more expectant.

Just like Singed in Zaun, Llane's strength gave Ledros hope.
