Two days had passed, noisy two days, currently the port city of Demakron was summoning unusual events, and the past fight from two days ago on the southern side of the city was already a legend today, and no wonder, for the first time one of the aspects was corrupted, for the first time there was something so terrible and Aspiros Lewandowski, a wanderer from another world also called the God of War, destroyed the Aspect, defeated Leona as well as the corrupted Vi, and Demakron trembled even more, as the entire known world trembled, but seeing the destruction of the Aspect provided a greater fear than the words themselves , because actions speak louder than words, and today, after the past two days, Demakron was again a place where a new history was written, because from Ionia ships arrived with many champions and Zoe, through the power of her portals, brings many envoys, commanders and generals to Demakron, many champions who were to discuss the unit the next day.
There was one topic, a man from another world, his power and what he was doing, and a strange bloody frenzy, this was supposed to be tomorrow, tomorrow many people were supposed to decide on their next steps, because Aspiros, as he himself said, sitting on his throne of war, was constantly waiting for those who would throw him a challenge under the throne of war, many trembled before him, many hated him, a few wanted revenge on him, and a few saw in him hope and friend, and even more, that was what it was like in the heart of the fox lady sitting between the battlements of the wall where the last tower and gate were destroyed after the attack of Leona and Vi, the fox lady with nine white tails watched the port city, living its daily routine but under a veil of fear, her golden eyes scanned the city thoroughly, focusing her eyes on the destroyed one of the ten cranes also divides those possessed with a wild frenzy.
Ahri, dressed in a red kimono, waved her fox ears, tucking her black hair over her left eye, remembering what had happened just a few days ago, after she had lost her greatest friend at his own hands and what she could never give him because her heart was already gone. chose, and at the same time remembering the day when she first saw a visitor from another world, because the day when he defended her against the twisted, bloody madness of The Watcher's chosen ones.
Exhaling deeply, Ahri shook her head, now looking only to the west, where the tower and the throne of war were located on the ruins of Noxus Prime, that was where he sat on his throne of war, the greatest mystery of the world, a man with an unknown goal and an idea for everything, Ahri lowered her ears feeling She felt naive and stupid today, feeling a twinge of pain in her heart, believing that he, Aspiros, was only war, that he would never love her, until her ears twitched when she heard the familiar voice of her good friends.
- hey Ahri, there you are, why are you hiding here?. She said Kai;Sa, a black-haired girl wearing The Void's navy blue armor and a pair of shoulder cannons lowered as she greeted her good friend in a tight hug.
- Kai'Sa, it's good to see you, Akali mentioned that you would come to Demakron today, and that's not the truth. She said Ahri and her nine tails wagged to the right in joy.
- yes, I'm not alone here, and you know, so much has changed in my life, so much. She said Kai'Sa with great joy in trembling navy blue eyes and from behind her came a blue navy blue woman with shiny hair, golden eyes, masks behind her back and that big smile on her face.
-Evelynn. She said Ahri, extending her left hand to her friend.
- It's good to see you too, I haven't seen you for a long time. She said Evelynn, squeezing Ahri with both her hands and her tentacles.
- an understatement, no girls. She said the Ninja warrior Akali, dressed in a green Ninja suit, shaking her head and placing her hands on Evelynn and Kai'Sa's shoulders with her black hair.
- how much has changed, right, Evelynn, Kai'Sa, really so much has changed in your lives, I don't know how it's possible. She said Akali with a wink at Ahri and the fox lady glanced at the two slightly blushing girls with curiosity in her golden eyes.
- how much has changed, wait a minute, that ray in your eyes, no, it's impossible, you are in love, admit it, but already, with whom, wait, in him!. Ahri shouted, her tails fluffed up and she looked at her two friends like wild fury, while Evelynn and Kai'Sa laughed out loud and waved their hand at everything.
- oh come on, it's not Aspiros, he's interesting, crazy, but he's not like my Garen, when I first met him, he saved me twice, but I wanted to fight him before, now I understand why, he's not like most, but Garen, lost his sister at the hands of a stranger but what could Aspiros have done here, if it wasn't for him Garen would have died and then he cleverly dissuaded him from taking revenge, he did it for me, thanks to that I know it's love, and not only that literally chi chi chi. She said Evelynn, shaking her masks, touching her mouth with her claws, and giggling after the amazing adventure she had experienced the past day.
- not just literally true Kai'Sa. Evelynn added, nudging Kai'Sa and she immediately looked down at the brown wall of Demakron city, blushing.
- Kai'Sa, who is this one?. Ahri asked, looking straight into the eyes of her friend, a refugee from The Void.
- an extraordinary man who, just like Garen, defended me with his own body against savagery and bloody madness, I realized that it was true love when I looked into his brown eyes, now I am sure of it, and if Darius ever decides to fight Aspiros, I will stand with him him, but I hope it won't come to that. She said Kai'Sa, showing her deep smile, hiding her hands behind her back as she stood there, a stressed teenager.
- that's right, Aspiros, from what I heard, he successfully dissuaded Garen and Darius from attacking him, using you in a clever way, because if they go to fight, you will do the same, this may be an element that will change the decisions of those gathered tomorrow, because everyone was begging in Demakron today, Katarina, Zed, Rakan, from Ionia with us, from the west came of course Garen, Darius, and Ashe, Aatrox, Braum, Morgana, Sejuani, Pantheon, you have to say Zoe did a great job opening portals from those places straight here, choosing the port in Demaktron as the place of decisive deliberations, I wonder what the final decision will be, maybe Garen and Darius. She said Akali before being interrupted by the mad criminal emerging from behind her in a skimpy graphic outfit, long blue braid, and shining pink eyes.
- it won't change anything, many want justice, others want revenge, Garen, your Garem Evelynn, maybe not by trying to take revenge, but he will certainly seek justice, besides Aspiros himself strives for it, he wants unification, wants everyone to fight under his throne war, madman. She said Jinx shaking her head as she leaned you against the brown wall.
- exactly here you can't be sure of anything, but I feel that he wouldn't have hidden us, even if we had gone to fight him, because why did he save us, me, and twice. She said Ahri, feeling a chance in her own heart, because knowing that Garen and Darius saved Evelynn and Kai'Sa for a specific reason, their love opened great hope in the fox lady's hearts.
- and I must admit it with anger, what he is doing, how he has connected your hearts, Evelynn with Garen, and your Kai'Sa with Darius, and now unites the world for united peoples to fight him under his throne of war, makes him a true madman, and I will say this with disgust, a greater madman than myself. Jinx said, folding her hands in front of her in a gesture of irritation and defeat.
- oh Jinx, don't torment yourself, you're still in first place, he's on a different scale. She said Akali, wanting to give her friend a bit of self-confidence, but Jinx looked to the right at the broken wall, remembering what the little cat had done.
- well, I know, Yuumi was also crazy two days ago, she was ready to jump into the shooting lane, the punch line, she wasn't afraid of him, because, as she keeps saying, she thinks he's a nice person. She said Jinx and Ahri, thinking the same thing, also nodded at her words, waving her white tails.
- well, you have to admit, there is something nice and charming about it. She said Ahri and Akali, Evelynn and Kai'Sa looked at her slightly surprised, but no more than Ahri herself, realizing from her own words, immediately feeling her own cheeks slowly heat up.
- and I thought that by kissing Aspiros I would do something truly crazy. She said Jinx, ignoring Ahri but not her. Jinx, as soon as Jinx said what she said, a big alarm went off in the angry fox lady's head.
- that you kissed him!. Ahri shouted.
- well, I wanted to show that I'm a bigger crazy person here, but now I see, aaaa!. Jinx screamed as Ahri suddenly grabbed her by the arm and lifted her high above her, looking at her with clenched teeth while Akali, kai'Sa and Evelynn glanced at each other trying to calm their good friend.
- what is it, what is it, Ahri, are you challenging me to be a bigger crazy person?. Jinx shouted, her pink eyes shining with the desire to take on the challenge.
- you kissed him, as dare you, as you could. She said Ahri, her golden eyes boiling with fury.
- that's the point, hey, come on, you're acting like a jealous girl, unless, wait, is it?. Jinx asked, and Ahri, surprised, let go of Jinx and was about to leave her friends behind, until she suddenly squealed when she felt a strong grip on one of her tails.
- it's true, you love him. She said Jinx.
Jinx's words made the surprised Kai'Sa and Evelynn also grab Ahri by her tails, looking at her with wolf-like curiosity, just waiting for an answer, while Akali shook her head and giggled to herself before slapping her red kimono-wearing fox friend on the right side. Ahri gasped, looked at the ground and turned back, knowing full well that she wouldn't be able to escape the questions, let alone her friends, so Ahri looked at Evelynn, Kai'Sa and Jinx, nodding shyly.
- yes, I loved him from the first moment I fought him, when he defeated me and then despite my sins and past, he saved me that day and later in the city of Sanox, I don't know how he feels about me, but thanks to you, Evelynn and kai'Sa, today I believe that what he did for me was not and is not accidental, if he had, no, I don't know. She said Ahri, feeling broken inside herself, not sure of anything, especially the feelings of a crazy man who himself had plenty to choose from, and Ahri could have a very serious competitor here, let's go to Jinx herself.
- You know what, Ahri, you probably won't have any competition in me. She said Jinx and Ahri looked into her pink eyes full of hope and the chance she could find from this side, now Ahri was wordlessly listening to every word of the crazy criminal with her blue braid cut in half.
- after I kissed him, it must have scared him, surprised him, because he quickly left me, I guess I'm not his type, and he's not mine, I must be at the peak of madness, to put it simply, I couldn't stand someone more in my life crazier than myself. She said Jinx and then calmly walked forward to the tower to get down from the walls and Ahri, looking at her, trembled slightly because she felt a real chance, but her ears twitched again because Jinx, as always, added a bit of pepper before she left, before she disappeared in the door of the stone brown tower.
- but I would keep an eye on some of the competitors, Akali is free, and from what I saw Yuumi also likes people even though she is a small cat, and of course Miss Fortune, she has qualities above all of us. She said Jinx jokingly and Ahri, hearing the words of the crazy criminal, fluffed up her tails again, feeling like she was about to explode, and when her golden eyes looked at Akali, she immediately hid behind Evelynn.
- Er, Ahri, listen, I, I mean, Aspiros is not my brand if that's the case, and when it comes to Miss Fortune, I don't know, but as for Yuumi. She said Akali, trying to explain herself, and her first words made Ahri feel a little calmer, of course, until a small blue cat, Yuumi, jumped out of the magical flash and the appearing book of magic, and with her big blue eyes, she was staring at the sky, looking for him, crazy. human.
- oh, you're also looking for him somewhere, this crazy man who can scratch behind the ears so nicely, is so nice and sensitive. She said Yuumi and Ahri's eyes twitched, not knowing what to think anymore.
- why do you like him so much as the only one?. Ahri asked hissingly, Yuumi rolled over on her back and started laughing loudly, shaking her paws.
- Um, I wonder what it's supposed to be. Evelynn asked, and Kai'Sa, standing next to her, crouched down to the little cat and started stroking her belly.
- I haven't seen such a sweet sight for a long time. She said Kai'Sa, petting the little cat until she stopped laughing and stood flat on the ground, looking suspiciously at Ahri.
- wait, where do these types of questions, jealousy come from? Yuumi asked, taking a few turns around the fox lady who was pinned down by subsequent questions.
- oh, everyone, leave me alone, I just want to know. She said Ahri irritated.
- well, I like him, Aspiros is a nice man, really very nice, unfortunately he has lost a very unpleasant and sad duty and there is nothing that can be done about it, but I like him as a person, an owner, if he was looking for a pet, I am the first to write, but with my hand on my cat heart, Aspiros is not my type, besides, look at me, I'm a cat and he's a human, so where did you get such an idea, Ahri, think a little with your head, hey. Yuumi said and then jumped into the depths of her book, appearing in a flash of magic in the harbor with a fish in her teeth, Ahri looked at her friends in confusion and they also shook their heads under their breath, letting out quiet giggles, until great determination and memories made Akali, Kai'Sa and Evelynn looked at their friend with deadly serious eyes.
- Ahri, remember one thing, what you feel for him is nothing bad, maybe what he did for you twice has a deeper purpose, he saved us all, it must mean something, maybe he feels something too, just like Zed did for Katarina, it wasn't a coincidence, let alone good will, it showed the truth, maybe after all. She said Akali, giving her friend great new hope, no more than Evelynn nodding her head and flowing blue-navy blue hair.
- it has to mean something, you don't do it like that, unless you are a crazy madman with an undefined goal and plan, and that's Aspiros Lewandowski, but no, it has to mean something, it has to, and you can't forget it, it means something, Definitely. She said Kai'Sa, remembering the moment when Darius defended her completely selflessly, even though he didn't know her, just one look, an exchange of glances and two words were enough.
- it depends, yes, but remember the most important thing. She said Evelynn, placing her right hand on the fox lady's left shoulder, looking directly into her eyes so that Ahri was also focused on her most important words.
- yes, I'm listening. She said Ahri and her tails trembled slightly until everything froze in silence and waiting for her friend's advice.
- when tomorrow's meeting actually decides about the fight and we all go to the throne of war, don't fight him, I won't fight him and I will do everything to prevent Garen from doing the same, but I know one thing what you have to do apart from not fighting directly, you have to fight him him, talk to him, tell him everything, let him hear from your mouth what you feel for him, you have to fight for him and what he says is his choice, his heart, if he says no, at least you will know, know the truth and it will be less hurt than uncertainty and if he says yes. She said Evelynn, squeezing her eyes and her right hand on Ahri's shoulder, and she did the same, grabbing her right hand and looked confidently into her rapidly opening eyes.
- yes zorbie, thank you Evelynn, thank you all, I will do that, I will talk to him, tell him everything, and then what, I know what I can hear, because who am I, look at me, I'm an ordinary Vastaya with average breasts. She said Ahri, looking at herself.
- oh Ahri, that's not what's important here, it's not the most important thing, that's not what made my Garen choose me, that's not it. Evelynn said, nevertheless looking at herself as well as Kai'Sa.
- that's not important, that's not it. She said Kai'Sa angrily, feeling a small shiver of fear down her spine, because the free Miss Fortune who was in the city had something to be proud of the most.
- oh, come on, that's not the most important thing here. She said Akali.
- so what. Ahri, Evelynn and Kai'Sa asked until the glow of the camera shook their hearts because a mysterious Tourist appeared on the city walls in fruit-colored clothes and a brown camera around his neck, which has already shown several times how great his power is, capable of the only one to erase Aspiros from the foundations of this world and not the whole world, but he, sitting looking at the ocean, just observed everything and everyone and today he had the most important thing to say for each of those present.
- first of all, don't be so critical of yourself, in the world where Aspiros came from, you would have made a great, stunning career there, and you would have hundreds of thousands of admirers and fans, so don't be so critical of yourself, firstly, and secondly, don't this is the most important thing here and who you are, in your heart and mind, and this is what connects you with a Garen or Darius, this is a true feeling and a free one at that, true free love is the greatest treasure, and your divided hearts found themselves in the darkness where a great flame was ignited light, and this is the greatest gift that Aspiros Lewandowski already gives you all, it breaks the fear and lies of the one who is the cause here and he is the effect. Said the Tourist, and the four girls, looking at him and listening to his words, still had to fight an internal battle just to avoid asking a question that he wouldn't answer anyway, and even if he did, none of them would understand what the Tourist had to say to them. Proverbs.
- and I like it, you don't ask unnecessary questions. added Tourist.
- I certainly wouldn't be able to understand their answers anyway, right. She said Akali and the Tourist turned around on top of the edge of the brown wall and looked at her.
- exactly, she never understood it, I don't interfere because it is unnecessary, I don't take away choice, free choice, I give it, thanks to my own, but recently thanks to someone like Aspiros and others like him, it's a big change in the current form of the cosmos, and I actually have nothing to do here, he is free and chooses the most suitable one, he wants war, and that's what I want, I will continue to watch this with great attention, anyway, it's time for me, limited by my own emotions, exactly . Said the Tourist, getting up from his seat.
- how limited it is. Kai'Sa asked quickly.
- you feel and this limits you in your own way, I am beyond all this, because I am The One Beyond It All, emotions are known to me, but I never misunderstand who I am, I am limitless and infinite. Said the Tourist, when he was about to disappear, he was suddenly stopped by a question the fox lady asked him.
- tell me, you see and know everything, can you help me, please tell me. She said Ahri, grabbing the Tourist's left hand where the Tourist was currently hanging his brown camera.
- Ahri, watch out!. Evelynn screamed when she saw the Tourist's eyes reflecting the image of the cosmos, grabbing Ahri's left hand, pulling her away from the unknown and indescribable.
- I can do anything, but I won't do anything that takes away your choice, so no, Miss Ahri, I won't tell you what Aspiros feels, it's his private matter, he also may not care about what you feel, he doesn't cross that line, yes, I could instill love to you, but I won't do that either, because that's how I see space, free, and I'm not doing something like that, it's a matter of your crazy hearts and no one else's, we understand each other. Said the Tourist, sounding as emotionless as always, or maybe it was his emotions, it was hard to tell who he was and whether he actually felt something, he and his mind were beyond any comprehension or reasoning, but before he disappeared, the Tourist looked back once again, giving one piece of advice to the fox lady. .
- remember to fight, you can't give up, you have to tell him, because ignorance in this case is a worse burden than knowledge. Said the Tourist and disappeared into the unknown, either the sea returning to the heart of the great day star, or the heart of the galaxy sitting in the heart of a super massive black hole, or to a place he knew, somewhere on earth in the human world, no one was sure of that except one thing.
Ahri hit the ground hard with her right foot, against the stone brown wall, and as she watched the sunset, knowing what she would do in the coming times, she no longer cared about anything.
- I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll say it and then let my world fall apart before my eyes. She said Ahri.
- remember, you can't give up, you have to tell him everything, only this way you will find peace, and what Aspiros does with it is his business. She said Akali as she placed her left hand on Ahri's shoulder and looked with her, Evelynn and Kai'Sa to the west where stood a great double tower with the Throne of War where a visitor from another world sat on his throne.
- we will be you, we will help, if necessary we will stop him by force, if Darius allows me. She said Kai'Sa.
- exactly, and my Garen. She said Evelynn.
- and I think I saw your Garen just a moment ago, he was probably walking towards the port. She said Akali, leaning out in front of the battlement of the wall.
- really, oh, it's the same again, Garen is still suffering, why didn't that damn tourist do anything, why is he watching our world in silence, he could have solved our problems just like that. She said Evelynn angrily, walking away from the edge of the defensive walls, now looking at the site and one of the roads where she had just seen a thoughtful black-haired man in silver-blue armor walking on its edge.
- he does, or rather doesn't do, so as not to take away our choice, Evelynn, wait. She said kai'Sa, understanding more and more of the Tourist's words.
- for what, Garen needs me, I don't have time. She said Evelynn until the words of her friend in the navy blue armor from The Void stopped her in front of the doors of the great tower.
- if it weren't for his passivity, you would never have met Garen, and Aspiros' actions would not have connected your hearts as it happened with me and Darius. She said Kai'Sa loudly and Evelynn looked back and gasped as her big golden eyes widened uncontrollably as did two tentacles swinging from behind her back.
- well, if that's the case, I fell off my chair, that's madness!, who, no, I shouldn't ask who he is because he'll come and tell me and I'll go crazy forever, but if it weren't for his passivity and Aspiros' action, then in fact, I would never I wouldn't have met Garen, and you, Darius, man, this world is strange, I, I have to go, hello and hold on. She said Evelynn as she quickly ran down the stairs, following Garen to the port where the Demacia warrior was drowning his grief over the loss of his sister Lux after she was consumed by a wild blood frenzy.
Meanwhile, Akali, who was listening to everything, leaning against the walls, suddenly jumped out like a bullet when she was alerted by the words Kai'Sa had said, and both Kai'Sa and Ahri looked at her with curiosity, watching their friend in a green skimpy ninja outfit mutter something under her breath.
- Akali, what happened, is it something bad?. Kai'Sa asked.
- Akali, can you hear us?. Ahri asked loudly, grabbing Akali's shoulders, then her friend looked into her golden eyes, finishing mumbling, and her black tied hair trembled as did her bark and hands.
- he is just observing, and Aspiros is giving us all a choice, maybe what is going to take place under the throne of war is his plan, maybe this is what he wants, he will not destroy us, but we have to support the war plan, go to the throne of war, you heard what he said about cause, Aspiros is the result here, maybe that's what it's all about, so we have to support the war plan tomorrow and that will definitely happen, I'm sure of that. She said Akali and her words made both Ahri and Kai'Sa look at each other and think hard for a long time.
- Are you saying that Aspiros has a plan here?. Kai'Sa asked and Akali nodded, answering immediately.
- exactly, he has a plan, he definitely has it, that's why he wants to see us under the throne of war, he wants it, and I believe that he will do something extraordinary, you'll see, so are you with me?. Akali asked and Kai'Sa and Ahri nodded in agreement.
- I'm with you, and you need to talk to Evelynn as soon as possible, but after she talks to Garen, unless they run away to some inn or hotel again, like they did before. She said Kai'Sa, blushing all over her face.
- you too, true. Akali stated quickly and her words made Kai'Sa blush even more and giggle to herself.
- Akali, I am with you, when there is a fight, when I meet him on the battlefield implementing an unknown plan, I will tell him everything, I will tell, I will tell!. Ahri shouted at the top of her lungs, so that a few soldiers marching through the streets and residents looked up at the walls, and the one from the sphere of shadows could see and hear everything again after the glow of the Tourist's camera shone in his eyes, but what Apocrypha saw were only the last words the fox lady announcing consent to war against the God of War, against Aspiros, and the monster built of red, bloody, fiery diamonds, shackled in black chains, growled furiously again because he saw and knew that what was set in motion by Aspiros was already inevitable.
Aspiros initiated tomorrow's meeting and its result was probably obvious today, war, at the foot of the throne, war was almost inevitable and he, Apocrypha, could do nothing about it, nothing.
L
I had many options in mind, the world of Runeter has many interesting candidates for the one who could give her heart to Aspiros, but in the end I chose Ahri, why her, sometimes I don't know, after all, in Runeter there are many, I don't hide it, prettier girls than Ahri, such a Miss Fortune, but in the end I chose her, judge for yourself whether I did the right thing.
