"Boss, a glass of sweet ale."

"Seeing as you are a foreigner, I will give you a drink with ten more copper coins. Do you want to come?"

"Thank you, but I'm afraid I can't have a second drink."

Rejecting the tavern owner's kindness, Milton picked up his glass and drank it all in one gulp. After putting down his glass, Milton glanced at his other companions lurking in the tavern and walked out of the tavern first.

A man wearing a large black felt hat and cloak just disappeared into the crowd, and the corners of Milton's mouth were slightly raised.

The incompetent Shurima defenders played no role in this incident. Under Lester's order, it has become an established fact that the Emerald Territory controls Vazuan, so there is no need to care about the Shurima defenders.

In my opinion, the victimized Noxian merchants are the best excuse for the Emerald Territory to intervene.

For Milton, how to capture the mysterious fire elemental mage is the current top priority. Confirm the address of the fire elemental mage, mobilize the manpower of Black Lightning and Night Blade to arrange a killing situation. During the operation, he will not give any clues.

The fire elemental mage has no chance to escape and resist. He knows that he can only satisfy the uncrowned king of the Emerald Territory by doing things cleanly and beautifully.

Now that he has completed the first step, Black Lightning's Meimi is obviously more experienced than him in how to capture the mage.

"He will come back, Master Meimi, just arrange the 'things' here."

Master Meimi nodded and said nothing, turned around and left.

At this moment, Kegan Noho didn't know that, without any sound, a big net had already wrapped around him who had just arrived in Wazuan. The big net didn't know that the little bird he captured was a bloodthirsty vulture.

.

…

In the hotel, Lester once again dropped blood on the rune crystal disk. The illuminated rune crystal disk projected a magic light curtain. A flickering light point was moving around in the light curtain. It was just that the light curtain

It didn't last for three seconds before the flashing light spot completely disappeared, and then the rune crystal disk also dimmed.

When Lester was on Wuwei Island, he also used the rune crystal disk to determine the direction, but he never thought that such a weird situation would occur with the reliable rune crystal disk.

"Come to Hit, what does the flashing light mean?"

Shia came over to look at the dim rune crystal plate with a curious look on her face, until Lester dropped blood on the crystal plate again, making the light spots appear and start to move around.

Regarding the strange appearance of the rune crystal disk, Lester, who looked serious, stopped dripping blood on the crystal disk. Since he had confirmed that it was nearby, there was no need for him to use the rune crystal disk for invalid positioning.

"Maybe it means that the holder of the rune fragment is moving, or maybe another rune fragment has taken the initiative to cut off the connection. Now I don't know exactly what happened, but at least one thing is certain, Wazuan

There are rune fragments, and the location of this fragment is not far from us.

The chance that the rune crystal plate is broken is very small. This thing itself has the effect of amplifying the breath of the rune fragments. The problem now is how do we find the world runes that are delivered to our door."

Looking away from the rune crystal plate, Shia suddenly thought of the fire elemental mage that Milton and others were tracking down. Shia stretched out lazily and said casually.

"Hit, do you think the person who controls the rune fragments is the fire mage who burned the cargo ship? Isn't it strange that there are only fire mage of unknown origin in Vazuan during this time?"

After hearing Shia's words, Lester's expression changed. If this was the case, Milton and others would never be opponents of the fire elemental mage. He who controlled the world's runes knew very well how terrifying the power of the runes was.

After reorganizing his thoughts, he thought of a certain heroic character who controlled runes. Lester said in a deep voice with a bad premonition in his heart.

"The possibility is very small, but... it is not impossible. Shia and Milton need to slow down their actions. If the fire elemental mage is really the rune holder, then Mage Meimi and Black Lightning will definitely not He will be the opponent of the fire elemental mage..."

Before Lester could finish speaking, there was a knock on the door behind him.

"Dongdongdong~dongdongdong~"

It was obviously just a gentle knock on the door, but Lester could hear a certain stubbornness, as if the door would keep knocking if he didn't open the door. Just hearing the sound made Lester feel what aggression was.

Standing up in silence, Lester took off the God-killing Blade that was placed in the cabinet. After gesturing to Shia who was holding the rune crystal disk, Lester opened the door bolt and looked coldly.

A stranger covered in a black hooded cloak was raising his red-skinned right hand as if knocking on the door. When the door opened, the owner of the cloak raised his head, revealing a heart covered with flaming red stripes. The braised egg head looks a bit scary.

This momentary impression reminded Leicester of the purple sweet potato spirit Ryze. Whether it was his clothing style or his appearance eroded by the power of runes, the guy in front of him looked very similar to the purple braised egg head.

But no matter how much he looks like the man in front of him, he will not be Ryze the Purple Sweet Potato, because Ryze will never show his cruel side, and there is no arrogance in his eyes directed at other people. Peace and humility are Ryze's nature, not Madness born from pain.

The red braised egg in front of me almost has 'I am a bad guy' engraved on its forehead. The only difference is that the head of the braised egg in front of me has not yet transformed into the burning Ghost Rider.

"Should I call you Kegan Noho, or should I call you Brand, the Vengeful Spirit?"

"I didn't tell anyone my real name...how did you know??"

Kegan Nohe, or Brand who had been combined with the runes in the flames, and was completely reborn under the transformation of the runes, paused casting spells. He had never seen the man in front of him, but the man who also controlled the runes had He seemed to know him very well.

This accident temporarily suppressed his murderous intention, and he decided to let the man in front of him take a few more breaths to satisfy his curiosity.

"I know a lot of things. For example, you burned down the Noxian cargo ship. Another example is that you and your teacher Ryze turned against each other because of the runes. In order to gain the power of the runes, you did not hesitate to think about it. Kill your savior and mentor with your own hands...

I have to say that if you really succeed, this will be a relief for Ryze. Has he told you that his teacher, Master Tyrus, was killed by him in a sneak attack because of rune problems? ? You guys are of the same blood."

After taking half a step back, Brand looked at Lester again with a serious face, feeling a little more wary.

"Who are you? Why do you know about me?"

Slowly drawing out the God-killing Blade, Lester sighed.

"Since you were able to find this place, you must have understood that some things are inevitable. To be honest, I quite like you. If you didn't always throw flame ricochet into the crowd, it would hurt sometimes."

With a sneer, knowing that he might have met a powerful enemy, Brand's black robe instantly burned out, his whole person turned into a burning evil spirit, and his voice also became like an evil spirit.

This is his full strength.

"You don't really think you can defeat me, do you?"

Brand responded with the blade of the God-Killing Blade. Brand flicked his right hand and a flaming whip hit the God-Killing Blade.

"boom!

"

Like a thermobaric bomb detonating in a secret room, the entire hotel was instantly reduced to a sea of ​​fire, and the flames engulfed everything.

Hundreds of people were buried in the tyrannical flames. Amidst the screams, only a huge silver dragon crashed through the burning roof of the hotel. The dragon rushed into the sky. It was Shia who was responsible for protecting the rune crystal disk.

This rare scene in a century stunned nearby residents and tourists. The burning hotel could be attributed to mages doing damage, but the problem is, how did a giant dragon with a wingspan of more than ten meters shrink in?

In the hotel? Bone-shrinking Kung Fu?

The streets of Wazuan instantly became a mess. Some people used wooden barrels to fetch water to try to put out the fire. Some people yelled to move the shop property that had not yet ignited. Some people were crying. It seemed that their relatives were still in the hotel.

When we came out, everyone was doing their own thing, running around like ants, but it didn't make any difference at all.

Further away, Milton and Meimi, who were preparing to ambush Brand in the tavern where Brand lived, changed their expressions and rushed here frantically with the black lightning mage troops.

In the hotel devoured by flames, Lester's body was completely scorched, his eyes were ripe, and his skin was carbonized. Against the smell of crispy outside and tender inside, he forcibly pulled out the God-killing Blade from Brand's chest, burning brightly.

Brand fell to the ground, and the flames on his body gradually dimmed like a fading life. Brand's eyes were full of unwillingness and doubt.

The enemy in front of him had clearly turned into a carbon stick, but he could still act as if nothing had happened. There was no sign of pain on his face, which was beyond recognition.

Obviously, it is very painful to be burned by flames, why would he act so calmly...

"Why... you are not afraid of my flames? Why... can you break my magic? Why... why..."

Staggering and paralyzed on the ground, Lester's right hand, whose body had been completely carbonized, could no longer support the weight of the God-killing Blade. He could only passively throw away Aatrox, who was laughing at him, and he touched his left arm twice.

The carbon block was stuck to a piece of meat that was already over cooked. Compared with just now, he couldn't smell anything now.

He casually threw his cooked meat on the ground. Lester, who was no different from a carbon skeleton, opened his mouth and realized that he had no mouth. His throat and chest were completely carbonized and no sound came out. The whole world became

There was eternal darkness. The strange thing was that he could still hear Brand's voice despite losing his five senses. He wondered if it was because of the rune fragments in Brand's body and the rune fragments in his own body.

Some kind of connection.

On the other side, Brand, who saw that Lester had become a cripple and had a panoramic view of Lester's misery, smiled with difficulty. He knew that although the man in front of him was the winner, he was not without suffering. This made him

He felt a lot better, which at least showed that his efforts were not in vain.

Without the blessing of the power of runes, the surging flames in the air began to shrink. Only the hotel was still burning fiercely. The flames that were enough to melt molten iron could not fully fill up the carbonized Lester and flame resistance at this moment. It was not possible at all.

What about Brand, who would be injured by the ignition? The two of them were sitting and lying in the fire, waiting for the passage of time.

The sound of fire burning all around reminded Brand of the night when he returned to the village, the night when Keegan Noho died and Brand was resurrected.

Immediately afterwards, Brand thought of his teacher, the wandering mage named 'Ritz' who always carried a huge magic scroll on his back and was both a teacher and a friend.

Brand closed his eyes and lay quietly on the ground.

"My teacher Ryze, he thought it was the world runes that changed my mind and turned me into Brand, who is greedy for power and does whatever it takes. In fact, it is not the case. When my mother Regina left this world, Shou

Ji Genohe was already dead with his cold body. Brand was only inspired by the world runes from his body. He has always existed in the world. The person whom the teacher Ryze saved in the cave was not Ji Gennuohe.

Gennohe is Brand.

Brand is not Gigannohe who has become bad, but Kigannohe is Brand who has no power to become evil.

My mother, Regina, is a doctor. She was caught by a bandit during a trip to collect medicine. After some humiliation, my mother returned to the village with scars all over her body. She watched her belly getting bigger day by day.

The gossips among the villagers are becoming more and more unblocked.

The mother who suffered so much humiliation could not be cruel enough to kill an innocent life. Amidst the curses and abuses, I came into this damn world. My birth brought deeper pain to my mother, Regina.

If my death could make my mother's situation easier, I would rather die a hundred times, a thousand times, but unfortunately...it's useless.

I am the son of a robber, a bitch and a bastard from the village of Regern, a bastard destined to become another robber.

I have never seen my father since I was a child. I only know that he is the bastard that other people in the village call him, a damn bastard, a bastard who insulted and tainted my mother.

Because my robber father and mother were secretly called frivolous and despicable bitches by others, even though the bitches they called went to the mountains to collect medicine to cure their diseases. Those who were harmed by bandits could not see anything.
To be continued...
