"Really?! That's wonderful!"
"Cough!" x2
Tiana and Garen both coughed lightly, while Lux just stuck out her tongue and said softly, "Um... I'm sorry, Lady Soraka, I lost my composure."
"It's alright. This just shows that you are a simple and genuine person. I really like your personality. You will be a favorite of nature."
"Thank you! Hmm? This is... Sona!"
Everyone, including Akali, looked up. At that moment, a beautiful young woman carrying a harp and wearing a gorgeous blue dress with gold trim walked in. It was Sona.
For a moment, everyone felt as if they were seeing a fairy descended from heaven. Soraka nodded and whispered, "What a beautiful girl, but... fate is so cruel to her..."
Everyone nodded, and Lux asked expectantly, "Lady Soraka, can you heal Sona?"
"I don't know, but I'm willing to try."
"Great!"
Sona remained silent in front of others. She placed one hand on her harp and gently plucked a string, the music silencing everyone.
The next moment, a relaxing melody slowly began to play, and Soraka and Akali nodded slightly, indeed living up to its reputation.
Sona's eyes remained clear as she gazed at the audience. When the song ended, everyone was captivated. Sona glanced at Lux silently, and Lux simply nodded imperceptibly.
But Akali saw this action, and a slight smirk appeared on her lips beneath her mask. These two girls have an ulterior motive...

Chapter 338 Soraka's Curiosity, Sona Who Never Gives You Peace of Mind (Please Subscribe~)
Akali remained unperturbed, still looking nonchalant. If she didn't speak, probably no one would even notice her; this is a basic quality of a ninja.
Sona played for almost an hour, sometimes melodious, sometimes inspiring, and sometimes refreshing. When the last piece ended, everyone applauded sincerely.
Soraka clapped as well, but she quickly froze because she heard Sona pluck a string again, and everyone assumed Sona was thanking her.
However, Soraka felt that the music was inappropriate, and just as she was thinking this, she saw Sona raise her head and glance at Soraka without leaving a trace, and even give her a sharp look.
Lux asked her to give a look, but Sona was too naive to understand how to give a look, so she could only look at Soraka and then wink.
But that was enough. Soraka was also taken aback. This girl had something to say to her? What could it be? Did she want treatment? But there was no need to be so secretive about it. It would be perfectly normal to just say it directly.
Soraka suddenly sensed something, and was stunned for a moment when she turned her head slightly, because she noticed that Lux had glanced at her without her noticing.
Now Soraka was certain that Sona and Lux had something to say to her, which piqued her curiosity. After Sona's performance ended, Mrs. Bouvier brought Sona over.
Sona couldn't speak in front of people, so she could only use sign language. Lady Bouvier said with a smile, "Greetings, Lady Soraka. This is my daughter, Sona. She just said she hopes that Lady Soraka and everyone else enjoyed the performance."
Soraka said softly, "A stunning performance, Sona, silence speaks louder than words... a piece of music with magic."
Sona gestured somewhat flatteredly, looking rather cute. Lady Bouvier smiled and said, "Lady Soraka, Sona says, Lady Soraka, you flatter me. She's just playing the piano according to her own ideas. I'm so glad you like it, Lady Soraka."
Soraka smiled and said, "Sona, do you want to say something?"
Lady Bouvier and Lux were both taken aback when they heard this. They hadn't expected Soraka to bring it up at this time. After all, Jarvan IV and the others didn't know that Sona could talk.
Sona paused for a moment before nodding. Poppy and the others looked at Soraka with some anticipation. Soraka placed one hand on Sona's head and frowned the next moment.
Jarvan III asked in confusion, "Lord Soraka, what's wrong?"
Soraka shook her head and said, "No... my assessment is that Sona's throat is perfectly fine, without any curse or signs of poisoning, but for some reason she just can't speak..."
Akali was also stunned. What could be the reason? It wasn't a disease, poisoning, or a curse. Looking at Sona's neck, it was as perfect as white jade, without any wounds. How did she lose her voice?
Jarvan III said with some doubt, "Miss Sona's injury wasn't due to that... This is really strange... Is fate really going to play such a cruel trick on us?"
Sona plucked a string, her face calm, which made Jarvan III and the others admire her even more. She showed no disappointment or sadness, just such composure, and this optimism filled them with awe.
After Sona gestured for a moment, Mrs. Bouvier patted Sona's head and said with a smile, "Sona said... she doesn't mind. She's doing very well now. Maybe it's because the silent Sona is the real Sona."
Soraka nodded and said, "In the future, I will do my best to find a cure for you while I travel across Runeterra. As long as I live, no one will suffer..."
Sona paused for a moment before nodding. She gestured, and Lady Bouvier smiled and said, "Lady Soraka, Sona would like to humbly ask to shake your hand."
"A handshake? Of course."
Sona's expression brightened, and she took out a clean silk handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe her hands before shaking hands with Soraka amidst Soraka's smiling face. However, Soraka was slightly taken aback.
After Sona gestured for a moment, Lady Bouvier smiled and said, "You silly child... Sona said she will remember this day forever; it is her most precious gift."
Soraka nodded, and Lady Bouvier said gently, "Lady Soraka, please forgive my boldness, but Sona has been preparing for tonight's performance and hasn't eaten anything, so I would like her to go and eat something first."
"Of course, go ahead."
Sona nodded to the group before gracefully leaving. She went straight to Fiona's side, and the two started chatting, though Sona used sign language.
As for why Fiona could understand sign language, no one cared. Fiona looked at Sona, who was chewing on a pastry, and said softly, "Did you give the note to Lady Soraka?"
Sona nodded, her cheeks puffing out like a hamster's. Sona always ate like that; it looked adorable. Fiona asked softly, "When are you planning to go?"
Sona gestured that the banquet was over, and Fiona nodded. Suddenly, Fiona noticed that Sona's expression froze, so Fiona quickly handed her a glass of juice.
Sona breathed a sigh of relief after drinking it, while Fiona rolled her eyes and said, "What a troublesome guy. When will he grow up a bit?"
"Well...."
Sona puffed out her cheeks and gave Fiona a somewhat resentful look before continuing to eat the exquisite pastries in front of her. Although they weren't as delicious as those made by Bai Yu, they were still quite tasty, and she was genuinely a little hungry.
Akali whispered something in Soraka's ear. Soraka paused for a moment before nodding, and then handed Akali the note that Sona had given her earlier.
Jarvan III asked in confusion, "Lord Soraka, what happened? Is there any problem? Or has someone been discovered to have invaded?"
Soraka shook her head and said, "It's nothing, Akali just needs to use the restroom."
“Oh! I see... Miss Laksana, please take Miss Akali with you.”
"it is good!"

Chapter 339 Akali's Resolve: Either Marry Me or Kill Him (Please Subscribe~)
Akali wasn't wearing any formal attire, just a black robe, though she wasn't wearing a hood. Lux led the way for Akali, who silently followed them.
Lux didn't seem to mind at all, and just strolled along leisurely, humming some unknown tune. Lux sighed and said, "I really don't know why they designed the banquet hall to be so big. It would be embarrassing if someone got an upset stomach."
"Hmm... Hmm? I don't know why, but I feel that Lady Soraka is easier to talk to than I imagined."
"Eh? You're from Ionia, aren't you?"
Akali gave a soft "hmm," as if talking was a tiring thing for her. Lux, on the other hand, perked up, turned around, smiled, and said, "Are you the legendary ninja?"
"Um...."
"Wow! That's amazing! Do you know any Fire Release, Lightning Release, Water Release, or anything like that?"
Akali's eyes twitched, and she simply said in a soft voice, "What are you talking about?"
"Huh? Oh... it seems you don't know how... um... by the way, is Ionia interesting?"
"It's boring."
"Huh?! Really?! Wasn't it supposed to be a pristine land, a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery? That's strange. Is it because you've been busy with missions and haven't had a chance to really enjoy yourself that you're bored?"
Akali felt like she'd been shot in the heart. She had a feeling this girl was a hidden schemer, but that wasn't the point. The point was, she really hadn't really shopped around properly. She'd been training with the goal of becoming the Fist of Shadow since she was little, and when she went on missions, she probably only ever shopped in shopping streets.
Akali said softly, "There's nothing to play."
"Eh?! I see... I was planning to go check it out sometime in the future... Legend has it that Ionia has many amazing products, maybe we can establish a trade route."
Akali paused for a moment without saying anything. Lux was about to speak when she saw a room, pointed at it and said, "Look, this is the toilet. Seriously, you can really hold it in. You've been walking for so long and you still have no expression. It's hard to imagine that you need to go to the toilet."
Akali paused, then pushed open the door and went inside. Lux didn't say anything, just stood in the doorway with her hands behind her back and said softly, "Hey? You said you like being a ninja?"
Akali in the restroom didn't speak, but instead took out the note and glanced at it. It simply said, "Lady Soraka, after the banquet, please come to the banquet hall after everyone has left. I have something to tell you, something very important, that you might want to know."
Akali narrowed her eyes, while Lux leaned against the wall and sighed, saying, "I don't know why you're so cold. Maybe all ninjas are like that. I'm curious if you have any other emotions besides being so cold?"
Akali paused for a moment and said softly, "Assassins don't need emotions."
"But, aside from your identity as an assassin, you're still a young girl. I can't see any of the emotions a young girl should have."
Akali said softly, "What feelings should a young girl have?"
"Hmm... I'll be happy because it's fun, I'll look forward to gifts, I'll be excited when something good happens, I'll be happy when I eat delicious food, I'll be happy when I buy new clothes, new shoes, new accessories, and so on. Oh, right, and also when I meet a boy I like, I'll be happy just thinking about seeing him, and I'll dress up nicely for him."
Akali said softly, "I don't need these."
"Huh?! How could that be! Don't you want to look your best while shopping with the boy you like, and have a romantic lunch together?"
"First of all, I don't have a man I like."
"Um...don't you have a guy you like? Why?"
"Because they are too weak, and cowardly, vulgar, and hypocritical."
Lux paused for a moment, then said, "Your standards are so high..."
Akali suddenly seemed to realize something and said softly, "So, you have it?"
Lux blushed, then whispered, "Yes... but I dare not say..."
Akali curled her lips slightly and said softly, "You're not talking about the prince, are you?"
Lux quickly replied, "No way! He's way more handsome than him! He's tall and handsome, very considerate, a gentleman, incredibly skilled, and a fantastic cook! He's also very knowledgeable and multi-talented! Most importantly, he's very sincere."
Akali was also taken aback. Such a man was too idealistic. If such a man existed, she wouldn't mind getting to know him. Akali said softly, "The apple of the Crownguard family's eye has a man she secretly loves. Does your family know about this?"
"I don't know, how could I possibly tell them? But if they arrange any kind of marriage for me, I will definitely fight back!"
Akali remained silent, but a hint of approval flashed in her eyes. She was a lone assassin, an assassin who didn't obey anyone's orders. All she wanted was to do what she wanted and become who she wanted to be. Akali greatly appreciated Lux's attitude of rebelling for the sake of her love.
Akali was about to speak when Lux asked in confusion, "Don't you feel stuffy wearing a mask all the time?"
"Do not."
"Hmm...that's strange, but your eyes are really beautiful. You must be a very pretty girl."
Akali paused for a moment, and just as she was about to speak, Lux asked in confusion, "Huh? Besides your parents, has anyone else seen your face?"
"And Master Shen and Kennen."
"Hmm...you don't sound like an ordinary person...that's all?"
"Nothing."
Lux sighed and said, "I'm really curious what you look like under your mask... but I doubt you'll take it off."
Akali said softly, "That's right. Apart from eating, bathing, and washing up, there are only two situations where you need to take off my mask."
"what?"
"Either kill me, or..."
Lux swallowed hard and said, "Or what?"
Akali blushed and said softly, "Only my husband can see my face... otherwise..."
"How about it?"
"Either marry me, or I'll kill him."
"Eh?!"

Chapter 340 The Assassin's Taboo, Lux: Can You Smile? (Please Subscribe~)
Lux was terrified. Akali's meaning was clear: either you kill her to see her face, or you become her husband.
However, Akali had already said that she didn't have a man she liked. Just the fact that he was strong enough was enough to make it hard to find one. You have to know that one of the ace of the Kinkou Order, now the Rogue Assassin, is the nightmare of her enemies. How strong would a man be to match her?
The key point is that as a ninja, she naturally looked down on brute force; otherwise, she wouldn't have said that those men were weak, cowardly, vulgar, and hypocritical, and this vulgarity naturally included the behavior of brutes.
As a ninja and assassin, she yearned for great power, but it was best to have that power with skill. Her cross-shaped scythe had slashed the necks of countless brutes.
However, this also leads to a situation where Akali, this proud and powerful girl who pursues freedom and self-expression, is unlikely to fall in love at first sight.
So, if you think that you'll see her and suddenly see a man, fall in love at first sight, and take off your mask, you're overthinking it, whether you're pursuing her or being pursued by her.
The premise is that the man must have seen her face, meaning he must have the ability to remove the mask. The assassin's biggest fear is having his face seen by others.
