Runeland: I really know a little bit about everything

Page 196

Kaisa looked at everything here curiously. This was the first time she had come to the capital of Shurima since she was a child. Although it was a little different from what she had imagined, it still attracted her attention. Zuo Chi followed beside her, looking at this empire that was in ruins.

Soon, the three of them crossed the open square of the palace and arrived in front of the main hall.

It was also at this time that Zuo Chi and Nasus saw the figure in front of them, holding a scepter and wearing golden eagle armor, standing at the door of the hall.

“Your Majesty.” Nasus asked in surprise, “Why did you come out?”

At this time, Azir’s eyes were all on Zuo Chi. As the emperor of Shurima, he could clearly sense the fluctuations of the power of ascension coming from Zuo Chi’s body. Although this power was not complete, it still could not conceal Zuo Chi’s identity as an ascender.

In addition to the deeds of Zuo Chi that Nasus had mentioned to him before, he chose to go directly to the door to greet Zuo Chi.

Looking at the Shurima Emperor right in front of her, Kaisa beside Zuo Chi was a little nervous for a moment. After all, this was the highest-ranking person she had ever met since she was a child, not to mention that the other party was an ascender.

Facing Azir’s gaze, Zuo Chi simply patted Kaisa’s hand, then bowed slightly to Azir:

“Your Majesty, I have long admired you.”

Azir held Zuo Chi’s arm and said, “Sir Zuo Chi, I have always heard about your deeds from the Grand Secretary, and now we finally meet.”

“Come in quickly, I will talk to you in the hall.”

Inside the palace hall, there were only Zuo Chi and four others at this time. They stood facing each other, and Azir did not sit back on the throne.

Zuo Chi looked at Azir in front of him, and his impression of him changed slightly.

After a moment of silence, Azir was the first to break the silence in the hall: “Sir Zuo Chi, I wonder why you came to the capital of Shurima this time?”

Zuo Chi said: “I believe the Grand Secretary has already told His Majesty that I want to use the Sun Disc to perfect my incomplete power of ascension.”

Azir sighed and nodded, then he looked at Zuo Chi hesitantly: “The current Sun Disc has lost the ability of the Ascendant.”

“Nasus has already told me this.”

Zuo Chi took over the conversation and continued, “Now that the whereabouts of the Holy Symbol of the Sun is known, there is still a solution.”

“Are you willing to help me?!” This time, Azir’s eyes showed a strong expectation and a hint of pleading.

Now he really needs the help of a strong person. If Zuo Chi is willing to help him without fulfilling his wish, it will definitely be a great help to Shurima.

Looking at the excited Azir, Zuo Chi shook his head slightly, as if thinking about something.

Seeing this scene, Azir’s expression became a little gloomy.

But soon, Azir heard Zuo Chi’s extremely serious voice:

“Your Majesty, I have something I would like to ask you.”

“Hmm?” Azir paused for a moment, “Please go ahead, sir.”

Zuo Chi looked at Azir standing opposite him, his eyes seemed to contain a terrifying light: “I would like to ask your majesty, what do you think of those Shurima generals who were once ascended gods but later fell into the darkin.”

As Zuo Chi finished speaking, the entire hall suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Neither Nasus nor Azir spoke again.

Azir died under the impact of the power of the sun before the Darkin appeared. Now he has been resurrected, but the former Darkin have been sealed. He has not experienced the Darkin War, nor has he personally experienced what the Darkin have done.

In other words, if Azir hadn’t died, the Darkin would never have appeared.

In this case, Azir’s attitude towards the Darkin is somewhat intriguing, and Zuo Chi needs to know it in advance.

There was a moment of silence. Just as Nasus was about to rescue his majesty, Azir’s formal and affirmative voice rang out in the hall:

“I didn’t witness what the generals did with my own eyes, but there is one thing I will never forget, and that is the contributions you generals made to the Shurima Empire.”

“I am a descendant of the ancestor Setaka, and you generals are predecessors from the same period as the ancestor Setaka. I was lucky to have their help in the past, and now I still respect them.”

“Although it is just a luxury, if you generals are willing to return to the Shurima Empire, I will open the city to welcome you and treat you with the highest courtesy of Shurima!”

“Your Majesty!” Nasus shouted hurriedly after hearing Azir’s words.

He wanted to stop Azir from continuing. He knew the cruelty of the Darkin better than anyone else, so he absolutely could not allow the Darkin to interfere with the Shurima Empire.

Once the Darkin get involved, I’m afraid that the already shaky Shurima will collapse even faster.

However, in the face of Nasus’s stop, Azir chose to continue speaking.

He looked directly into Zuo Chi’s eyes and said with a firm gaze:

“I know that the generals have turned into bloodthirsty demons, but one thing is undeniable: no matter what the generals are like, they have never wanted to harm the Shurima Empire for a single moment.”

“Based on this alone, no one can erase the outstanding contributions they have made to Shurima!”

As Azir finished speaking, the entire hall fell into silence. Zuo Chi was still staring into Azir’s golden eyes under his eagle armor.

Azir was also a little nervous, because he couldn’t judge what Zuo Chi was thinking, and he didn’t know whether Zuo Chi wanted him to get close to the Darkin or distance himself from the Darkin. What he said just now was just based on his heart.

After a long time, Azir discovered that a very bright smile suddenly appeared on Zuo Chi’s face.

Then, Azir heard Zuo Chi’s voice:

“As an emperor, although I failed to predict the wolfish ambitions of this cub, Zeratul, other than that.”

“You are a good emperor!”

Zuo Chi stretched out his hand towards Azir, and then held it tightly with Azir.

“I will help you get back the Holy Emblem of the Sun. It will be my token of loyalty to you so that you can obtain the full power of Ascension. How do you think?”

“!!!”

This time, an extremely strong ecstasy appeared in the eyes of both Azir and Nasus.

Shaking hands with Zuo Chi, Azir said formally:

“Mr. Zuo Chi, thank you very much! Thank you very much!”

Zuo Chi smiled at the two of them and said, “Can you take me to find Taliyah? My girlfriend and she are friends. We haven’t seen each other for a long time and I miss her.”

“of course can.”

Azir, Nasus and Zuo Chi smiled at each other.

Afterwards, Zuo Chi and Kassadin were taken by Nasus to a certain place in the palace. According to Nasus, that was the direction of the princess’s bedroom.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Taliyah’s eyes were full of surprise when she saw Zuo Chi and Kaisa.

“Zuochi, Kasa!”

Zuo Chi nodded to Taliyah and said, “I promised to bring Kai’Sa to play with you. I have finally fulfilled my promise.”

After Taliyah stuck out her tongue at Zuo Chi, she happily took Kassadin’s hand and introduced her to Sivir who had always been standing beside her.

“Kasha, this is Sivir, she is the princess of the Shurima Empire.”

“Sivir, this is Kaisa, my good friend.”

When she learned of Sivir’s identity, a hint of surprise flashed in Kassadin’s eyes. She subconsciously looked at Zuo Chi behind her. Until she saw Zuo Chi’s affirmative eyes, she gave Sivir a kind smile.

Zuo Chi and Nasus did not interfere in the conversation between the three girls. Nasus looked at Zuo Chi seriously:

“Zuo Chi, are you serious about what you just said? Are you really willing to help His Majesty?”

Zuo Chi spread his hands and said, “It seems that I won’t gain anything by deceiving Azir, right?”

Hearing Zuo Chi’s answer, Nasus excitedly grabbed Zuo Chi’s arm: “Thank you Zuo Chi, thank you!”

Zuo Chi was caught by Nasus and swung around. Zuo Chi struggled to break free from him helplessly:

“I haven’t finished yet. I’m unfamiliar with the people of Nerimajie by myself, so I need someone to go with me.”

“I understand.” Nasus nodded.

He looked at Zuo Chi very seriously: “I will go with you.”

Zuo Chi did not refuse this, because he really needed someone to be with him, and the calm and knowledgeable Nasus was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

“Zuo Chi, when do we set off?” asked Nasus.

Zuo Chi looked at the sun hanging high in the sky and said in a deep voice:

“Right now!”

Nasus nodded: “Okay!”

Finally, Nasus went to the palace of Shurima to inform Azir of their itinerary, while Zuo Chi walked towards Kai’Sa and the other two who were huddled together and talking about something.

However, as Zuo Chi got closer, he still heard Taliyah asking Kassadin about something.

“Kasha, are you and Zuo Chi a couple?”

Kasa blushed and nodded: “It should be considered.”

“What do you mean by should be counted?”

Taliyah tilted her head and asked, “Haven’t you established a relationship yet?”

“Um”

Kasha thought for a while, then lowered her head: “It seems not yet, he hasn’t mentioned it to me.”

“Then we have to do it as soon as possible. Zuo Chi seems to be getting stronger and stronger. I heard from the ladies in the tribe that when he becomes strong enough, it becomes difficult to give birth to a child.”

“Taliyah, what are you talking about? We haven’t even started yet.” This time, Kassadin made Taliyah so angry that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

“Cough cough!”

Just at this moment, Zuo Chi’s light cough interrupted the two girls’ whispering.

Hearing Zuo Chi’s voice, Kassa turned around quickly and looked at him like a child who had done something wrong, and quickly put on a serious expression on her face.

Looking at her naive appearance, Zuo Chi came to the three girls with a smile on his face.

Then, under the gaze of the three girls, Zuo Chi extended his hand to Kasa:

“Ms. Kasha, can you be my girlfriend?”

For a moment, Kassa just stood there in a daze.

After she took a while to react, she looked at Zuo Chi’s smiling eyes in front of her and Taliyah and Sivir’s teasing looks beside her.

Kasha’s face flushed red, and she put her hand into Zuo Chi’s hand with a trembling arm, and said in a weak voice:

“Um”

“Wuhu~!” Taliya shouted, and then began to clap loudly.

Zuo Chi looked at Kasa in front of him. He couldn’t help but smile and winked at her: “Is it formal this time?”

Kassa nodded slightly and wanted to pull Zuo Chi aside to say something, but she soon noticed Nasus leaving in a hurry.
