Page Two [Stories and Desert Ballads]
The color tone of the room is gray and white consistent with the exterior building. Simplicity and order are perfectly reflected here. The lines of the windows are strong and straightforward. Chen Senran is sitting on a gray and white chair with a straight back. The oak bookcases are piled high.
A wide range of books of all kinds.
Facing the meticulously made bed, Chen Senran didn't feel sleepy at all. He picked up a book from the bookshelf and read it. He was surprised and lucky that he could understand these words that he had never seen before, "Valoran"
"General History". He opened the first page, and the paper made of Fei Mu leaf exuded a faint fragrance of ink.
"There are several continents in Runeterra, but all life is concentrated in the largest magical continent - Valoran. Valoran is located in the heart of Runeterra and is the largest continent in Runeterra. In fact, in many cultures
, the terms Valoran and Runeterra are interchangeable..."
Chen Senran tapped the pages of the book gently. The long walk made him feel a little thirsty. A glass of red wine might be more helpful for his thinking. In fact, he had no doubt that the mysterious warlock Gregory Hastur had some feelings for him.
For this purpose, Chen Senran would not think that this mysterious mage who generously invited a stranger into his home was just for the sake of that confused little girl Annie.
On the way, Chen Senran was still thinking about how he should explain his origin, but judging from Hasta's attitude, it seemed that the other party already knew his origin, so how could a summoned time traveler like himself be in this place?
There may not be a few in the world, and furthermore, there may be something beneficial to the indigenous people like myself who are traveling through time.
Something beneficial? Chen Senran gently rubbed the pages of the book, flicked his fingers on the table, and scanned a line of words in the book:
"There is a large amount of ecological magical energy in the blessed Rune Land, and the residents here can touch the energy."
Magical energy? Chen Senran rubbed his fingers. The lack of information prevented him from inferring much. He turned the page again and looked up at the cabinet full of books.
Maybe you will know after reading these books.
"Squeak~" The door behind opened.
"Um, Xiao Sensen, are you still asleep?" came Annie's timid voice.
Chen Senran helplessly turned his head to look at this extremely nervous little girl, only to see her hiding behind the half-open door, revealing a delicate little face, holding her pink pajamas uneasily with her hands.
"Is something wrong?" Chen Senran had nothing to do with this girl who dared to break into the room of a stranger he only met on the first day in the middle of the night.
"I can't sleep." Seeing Chen Senran's helpless smile, Annie's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning. She opened the door and jumped up and down, dragging the scary little bear to sit on the bed.
"Okay, dear Miss Anne, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Tell me a story. Mom hasn't told me a bedtime story for a long time." Annie pulled the bear and wrinkled her cute little nose at Chen Senran.
"Telling stories..." Chen Senran twitched his lips unconsciously. He knew how to kill people, but he had never done such a skill as telling stories in his entire life.
"Don't you want to?" Anne burst into tears instantly.
Well, Chen Senran had to admit that he couldn't resist the tears of this little girl.
"Uh, how could it be? I was thinking about what kind of story I should tell." Chen Senran scratched his head. Oh my god, even if he planned to kill the first heir of England in the first battle, he would not be allowed to do so.
Scratched the scalp.
Stories, stories, stories…
"This story tells the interesting process of a young man going through countless hardships and finally becoming a top killer." Chen Senran thought for a long time and suddenly told the beginning of the story with a smile.
"Killer..." Annie has heard many stories about magical monsters repaying kindness. For stories like killer...
"It seems very interesting." Annie nodded seriously.
"Of course it's very interesting. A long time ago, in a desert..." Chen Senran didn't feel that his behavior was at all suspected of teaching a little girl something bad.
The moonlight passed through the gap in the curtains. Chen Senran quietly turned off the magical lamp and tucked Annie's back. He hummed a song unconsciously, which was a song in the desert a long time ago.

Morning light filtered in through the window. Chen Senran opened his eyes and found Annie staring at him.
"Is there something on my face?"
"No." Anne suddenly became nervous, "Um, did you take advantage of others last night?" After saying that, she shyly hid under the quilt.
Taking advantage...Are children from other worlds so precocious?
After getting no answer from Chen Senran for a long time, Annie secretly revealed her eyes and found that Chen Senran had already sat aside and read a book.
Annie got up from the bed angrily, pouting and dragging her little bear towards the door.
Chen Senran let out a long breath and closed the book in his hand. Unexpectedly, Annie, who was about to walk out the door, suddenly said: "Well, my mother said that if a girl is taken advantage of by a man, she must marry him. When I think of it,
I'm so shy about marrying you."
Chen Senran's legs went weak and he almost fell off the chair.

Thousands of miles away in the Zhanzhan Academy. In a certain room, the only magic lamp was lit in the dark room, and three people in black robes sat at a chairperson's table.
"It seems that Greg has brought us a surprise." The man in black robe above coughed and started the conversation.
"The news is that he seems to have used the scarlet flames to create a summoning ritual in the Voodoo Land." The person in black on the right took over the topic.
"Valoran's service life has been reduced by fifty years again because of this summons." The man in black robes on the left gave another data.
"We need this new friend to be familiar with the rules of this world, whether he is the second Monkey King or the third Fear of the Void." The man in black robe at the head paused, "Has the special envoy set off?"
"Already on the road, but the Gray Order...you know that these Noxian exiles are not easy to deal with." The man in black robes on the right hesitated.
"I know Hastur. Maybe he is a greedy guy, but he knows the difference between fireflies and sun and moon. He dare not disobey the council's decision." The man in black robes on the left shook his head and expressed his opinion.
.
"I hope so." The man in black robes at the head concluded.
