LOL: The dark goddess covets me!

Chapter 23 Ahri's Yearning
Josh invited Ahri into the house, and in the magic training place on the second floor, Ahri's first class of magic began.

Ahri has an innate connection to the spiritual realm, and she's a natural spiritual mage, but that doesn't mean Josh, a rune mage, can't teach her.

Although the essence of magic is different, they are interlinked.

Arcane energy can be arbitrarily transformed into any element attribute, while spiritual magic is all-encompassing and varied.

As with any type of magic, the first lesson is to learn the general fundamentals.

Except for the books on the cognition of rune forms, Josh's classics are useful to Ahri.

It can only be said that as expected of a magical race, the speed at which Ahri learns theoretical knowledge does not require rote memorization at all, and she can understand the meaning of it with just a glance.

The harmony, flow, engraving, fullness, concreteness, etc. of magic, each magic concept combined with Josh's personal explanation and demonstration, by the time of dusk, Ari has almost mastered all of them, and the next step is to start practical training.

However, after almost a day of study, there was a short break for lunch practice in the middle. Ari, who was a beginner, was not in a good state of mind, and Josh did not put any pressure on her.

After a quick dinner, the two planned to go to the wilderness to relax their tired spirit from studying.

The night breeze at dusk has already carried the coolness of the night, but the residual heat of the day has not yet dissipated. At this time, the temperature is suitable for strolling and digesting food after dinner.

Josh and Ari walked side by side in the lush grassland, the stream jingled and the branches and leaves of the jungle in the distance swayed, playing the closing movement for the evening red sunset.

Ari stood on a large raised rock by the stream, his golden vertical pupils were dotted with fluorescence, reflecting the different shapes of burning clouds in the sky.

"Josh, do you know what the outside world looks like?"

Since he was born, Ali has been trapped in the one-acre three-point land of the Vasani tribe, and it is difficult to contact outsiders.

Except for Hailiya and the suburbs from the city to Josh's house, Ari has never even been to other places in the Fuguang Island, let alone seeing the vast world beyond layers of holy haze.

However, there is really nothing to see in Runeterra at this stage.

Now is 1000 years ago in the timeline that Josh understands.

If it were placed 1000 years ago on the earth, what era would the world be in?
Although the history of human origin in Runeterra is far longer than that of the earth, it can be traced back to the Freljord Ice Field 8000 years ago, when the three Ice Sisters led the group to fight against the original demigods.

But since Shurima, the ascended empire, fell 2000 years ago, it set off the beginning of the Darkin War.

And 300 years ago, Sarn Uzul was an iron-blooded warlord in his lifetime, and he was resurrected after his death, becoming the frightening iron-clad wraith Mordekaiser, who ran rampant in the Valoran continent, massacred and wiped out Two generations.

Half of the civilizations in the ill-fated Runeterra are almost at a standstill. Except for Ionia, which has always been in harmony with the world and where man and nature live in harmony, the continent where Kamavia is located has experienced disputes and was later conquered by this powerful kingdom. The civilization that lasted until Viego was still slowly developing.

When Blessed Island is affected by the ruin caused by Fyego and turns into a shadow island where life is restricted, the mainland of Valoran will once again start a round of rune wars in which millions of people have lost their lives to snatch the world's runes and conquer the world in vain.

Since then, the Noxian tribe settled in the Immortal Fortress, the capital city that Mordekaiser once established and stood for a hundred years, and became the later Noxus Empire.

More than 200 years later, part of the people of Valoran who were persecuted by the rune war migrated to the west and found the natural magic barrier - the magic stone forest, and mixed the lime into the stone to create the magic stone, established a state, and formed Germany. Kingdom of Marcia.

One east and one west, the Noxus Empire and the Kingdom of Demacia became the cradle of civilization, and jointly gave birth to the Valoran continent, which is the most prosperous civilization in later generations.

But that is a thousand years from now.

Josh climbed onto the stone and sat at Ahri's feet, "The outside world, how should I put it? My favorite is the nascent land in the North Watcher's Sea."

Ari lifted up his robe, and sat down beside Josh on his knees, "The land of the first birth? My tribe has records about that land."

Her hands crossed her knees, her delicate and flawless side face was pressed against her fat-free thighs, and her clear eyes, as bright as morning stars, stared at his side face.

Coupled with the wiggly and trembling fox ears, the swaying nine-tailed tail, and the already petite and cute figure, Ari didn't realize how foul his posture was.

In addition, the unknown fragrance from Ahri's body penetrated into the nasal cavity from time to time, and Josh's heartbeat accelerated slightly.

Even Lunicia couldn't help complaining: [Can you be more reserved?A big man, how come he looks like he has never seen a woman...]

[Well, although this little fox is indeed a bit charming... If you want me to say, if you like it, just go straight to it!It's really mother-in-law. 】

【If you were in the former Shurima Empire with your coy attitude, you might not even be able to find a wife! 】

Josh cleared his throat to relieve the embarrassment that only he felt, and said, "It's a land of pure happiness that doesn't compete with the world, where man and nature coexist in harmony, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and feel at ease.

"The people there pursue the balance of everything, because only in this way can the material realm and the spiritual realm achieve stability, and the spirit of nature will bless them."

"Well, I know this. All the vastayas come from the First Land, and our Vasani tribe is no exception." Ahri blinked, pursed his lips and sighed softly, "Unfortunately, I have never been there."

"There will be a chance."

Josh turned his face sideways, and happened to meet Ari's hopeful eyes.

Looking into his eyes, Ari subconsciously said: "If there is a day, I hope we can go together."

It seemed that she realized that her words were ambiguous, or that she was being watched by Josh all the time, her sprouting girlish heart arose shyly, Ari's cheeks flushed a little, and she staggered her gaze.

"I mean...we're friends, but we've never had a good time together like friends, have we?"

Ahri forcefully explained in a panic, the nervous look is really cute.

[Yeah, friends of the opposite sex who are in love, still want to play together... Tsk, is it an adult'play'?You guys are so boring, why not train with me, fight or magic...whatever. 】

Lunicia replied on behalf of Josh, but unfortunately only Josh could hear her words.

After a while, Ari seemed to have thought of something, and stretched out his hand to untie the laces on his short boots.

He took off his shoes and took off the white cotton foot bag, a pair of white and delicate jade feet.

The perfect arch of the foot is slightly bent, and the delicate and exquisite toes are first curled up, and then stretched out like flower petals. Ari puts the shoes and socks aside, lifts up the hem of the clothes, jumps off the stone, and steps on the tender grass.

Immediately afterwards, Ari stepped into the edge of the shallow creek, bent over and picked up a splash of water, which splashed onto Josh who was still sitting on the stone, slightly dazed.

"Come and play together~~"

……

……

As night falls, Hylia's scholar's residence.

The whole city ended the busy day, and fell into a deep sleep under the quiet white tulle.

However, every time Ryze, who tossed and turned, closed his eyes, he was always awakened by the ghostly nightmare lingering in front of him.

Drenched in cold sweat, Ryze sat up from the bed and stared nervously at the translucent French door leading to the terrace.

Although the room was brightly lit, he always had a creepy feeling, as if there was something staring at him under the suffocating darkness outside.

Something has returned, the white ghost that wanders near the Well of Ten Thousand Years' well of life.

It has been following me!
Fear choked Ryze's neck, and he was trembling all over, his eyes shifted to the thick classics on the table.

It was the rune secret tome he had traded with Greer in exchange for the water of life——

After hundreds of years, the wisdom crystallization passed down by only dozens of rune mages in Fuguang Island is far more detailed than the arcane rune notes that Josh gave Ryze.

"Oh my god... what the hell did I do?!"

Ruiz looked at the landing door again, his throat moved unconsciously, and he swallowed.

After hesitating again and again, he still changed into his daily clothes, put on his shoes and socks, picked up the rune codex on the table, and walked out of the bedroom.

Looking at the door of Tyrus with complicated eyes, Ryze left the suite quickly without making any sound, praying secretly in his heart:

I hope my greed is not a big mistake...
