Seeing Farn's actions, Xia's eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Kuilin's magic is actually responding to him?!"
Unlike other regions, the magic of Kui Forest is imbued with the very essence of wild nature. In this environment, the Vastaya, with their innate connection to the natural world, feel completely at ease, finding everything they do remarkably effortless. For ordinary mages, entering Kui Forest is a stroke of luck; let alone casting spells, simply avoiding being targeted by the region due to their accumulated magical power and suffering internal injuries during the spellcasting process is considered fortunate.
And now...
Wait, no, it's not that magic is responding to him, but rather that his will is superseding magic.
Ultimately, they are characters who become 'heroes' in the game. Even though not every hero in League of Legends can truly be considered a hero. But one thing is undeniable: for the vast majority of playable characters in League of Legends, they become core characters used by the writers of Runeterra to advance the world's storyline. The most obvious examples are the Ionian War, the Rise of Shurima, and the Curse of the Ruined King, among other major storylines.
Although not explicitly demonstrated, based on Faen's observations, these female heroes all possess extraordinary talents to varying degrees. For example, Riven's talent magic allows her to transform willpower into a storm—this isn't explicitly shown in the game or its lore, but the fact is that even without Elder Souma destroying her rune greatsword, Riven can still unleash Gale Slash through willpower transformation. After all, even in the game, Riven's reforging of her broken sword is itself a manifestation of willpower.
As for Kasumi...
In the storyline, Xayah's rise to power likely occurs several years later—after the Ionian War has ended. Ionia, severely damaged by the Noxian invasion, suffered significant spiritual damage, with the impact spreading to the northeastern region beyond the Shanzan Highlands. Primal magic spiraled out of control, natural magic weakened, and the loss of control over human nature led to a conscious expansion into Vastayan territory. Having lost her homeland, Xayah joined the Vastayan rebels in their quest for revenge against the Ionians, breaching fortresses and leaving behind a trail of physical remains, thus earning the infamous title of 'Purple Raven'.
Although it may sound a bit strange—like the Ionians building fortresses and then invading wild nature.
But this also proves the pain the Ionian Wars brought to the Ionians.
The Shadow Order, an organization that glorifies violent revenge, needs no introduction. Numerous armed groups in the populace, such as the Navori Brotherhood, attempt to incite hatred among the people by assassinating 'heroes' of the Ionian War, thereby driving the war forward. As conflict intensifies, it's only natural that some exceptional individuals emerge from among the Ionians.
Returning to the present, after discovering that her attack was ineffective and that her opponent's consciousness seemed to transcend natural magic, Xia keenly realized something was amiss—compared to ordinary Vastaya, Xia's connection to natural magic was much stronger, which was one of the reasons why she was able to detect that Fane's consciousness was superior to natural magic. But precisely because of this, when Xia noticed that Fane was also looking at her, an instinctive fighting spirit surged in the heart of this crow-girl.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xia instinctively turned around and said, "Run! We need to get the message to the tribe's elders!"
Consciousness transcends nature; whatever the purpose of the other party's arrival on Kuilin Island signifies their extraordinary status. In a situation where force is insufficient, the best course of action is to report the situation to the tribe's elders, allowing the tribe to prepare for any eventuality.
Meanwhile, though they were quite far apart, Faen still heard Xayah's words. Somewhat surprised by the short-ranged ADC's keen hearing, Faen wasn't about to let the delicious treat slip away easily. He reached out, and with a surge of magic, Xayah found herself surrounded by a mist. Before she could react, the mist carried her directly to Faen's side.
When the mist dissipated, Xia was being carried by one leg by Farn, just like a hunted turkey.
A flicker of fear crossed Xia's eyes, and she instinctively tried to struggle and fight back, but the next moment she felt as if the air around her had solidified, rendering her unable to move an inch. Amidst her confusion and bewilderment, Fane turned to the few Vastayan Arakkoa standing nearby, hesitating between trying to rescue Xia or immediately retreating, and said, "Don't be so tense. I've come here on the orders of Venerable Karma of the Temple of Eternity, to resolve the issue of the decline of primal magic. I mean no harm."
As he spoke, Farn freed his right hand to show the double dragon seal on it, saying, "If you don't believe me, just tell your elders about this mark, and they will understand."
Hearing Fan's words, although they weren't sure if Fan was telling the truth, seeing that Fan didn't seem to have much malice, and that they had indeed launched the attack first, one of the Vastayan asked, "Then can you release Xia?"
"Sure, but I don't know much about the Arakkoa. If possible, I would like someone to help explain the various customs of the Arakkoa to avoid unnecessary conflicts."
382·Serving
Upon hearing Fan's words, the Vastayan leader beside him was filled with doubt and uncertainty, but in the end, it was Xia, who had fallen into Fan's hands, who reacted first.
Held upside down by Faen, Xia also pulled at her skirt, glanced at the mark on the back of Faen's hand, and said, "Don't worry about me, you can go back and report to the elder. Leave this to me."
Upon hearing Xia say the same thing, the Vastayan standing nearby no longer hesitated, nodded, and turned to leave.
Perhaps because they resembled birds, these Vastaya moved with extraordinary speed. Although they couldn't soar like true birds, their clawed limbs allowed them to move nimbly among the branches of tall trees, and in moments, their leaping figures disappeared into the depths of the dense forest. Afterward, Farn turned his gaze to Xia beside him and said calmly:
"Not bad, you've adjusted your mindset so quickly." Hearing this, he just sneered and then said, "They're gone, so do whatever you want to do as soon as possible."
Clearly, although she said she would stay here, Xayah was actually prepared for the possibility that Fain was not a good person, so she took the opportunity to let her people evacuate while she stayed behind to cover their retreat.
To this, Fain simply shook his head and then tossed Xayah to the ground. As a Vastayan, Xayah's agility was beyond question; before she even landed, she had already adjusted her center of gravity through a series of movements, thus regaining her footing on both legs.
Farn wasn't in a hurry. He simply waved his hand, and a layer of seemingly thin but actually blurry color mist appeared around him, almost completely obscuring one's vision.
Through the mist, Fain exhaled a breath of stale air and then casually patted Sona's bottom.
"So nervous? I can barely get it out."
Hearing Fane's words transmitted through melody magic, Sona merely pursed her lips and remained silent—even in the mental realm, she only hummed shyly, uttering no words. While seemingly calm, Sona had actually become incredibly tense the moment Xia launched her surprise attack. She gripped the baguette tightly from the inside out, the warmth creating a surprising suction like small mouths, a stark contrast to her soft exterior, revealing a remarkably sensitive inner self.
Sure enough, with just two simple pats, Sona's plump, firm buttocks twitched in unison, creating waves of sensual flesh even without Fan's intervention. Seeing this, Fan penetrated fully, roughly kneading the girl's breasts while softly saying, "Good girl, I'm going to take care of some important business. Remember to digest it properly, and don't forget to come to my room tonight."
As she spoke, Fain's sac contracted. With a gurgling sound, Sona could clearly feel a lot of thick liquid filling her stomach. This feeling of being filled, of being crammed, gave Sona a strange sense of satisfaction and happiness. Experiencing this feeling for the first time, and unsure how to express it, Sona bit her lip, her eyes rolling back, her whole body flushed a blissful pink.
After continuously filling the cavity for about half a minute, until Sona's belly showed a barely noticeable curve, Fain finally withdrew, satisfied. Because of the prolonged expansion inside, the opening had been stretched and seemed unable to heal quickly, as if it had lost its elasticity. Fortunately, Fain now possessed a more powerful healing spell from Soraka's blessing than before; with a gentle wave of his hand, Sona was completely restored, and the large amounts of nutrient-rich yogurt containing abundant happiness factors were sealed inside her belly.
Once Sona absorbs this yogurt, her physiological functions will also increase accordingly. As for the cost, it will probably be the large amount of pleasure-inducing factors in it. However, since things have already progressed this far, Sona probably won't care about such things.
Having dealt with all of this, Fain prepared to dispel the surrounding water curtain. However, just as he raised his hand, Sona quietly interrupted him.
"that……"
Upon hearing the melody emanating from Sona in the spiritual realm, Fain stopped what he was doing and then looked on with a questioning expression.
Feeling Fain's gaze, Sona remained silent for a moment before pursing her lips and timidly saying through melody magic, "That place... is dirty. Shall I clean it for you?"
Upon hearing this, Fain nodded in agreement. Sona then gently dismounted and awkwardly licked and sucked the baguette for a few moments until it was spotless, clean inside and out, with each bulging vein clearly visible and shiny. After sucking a full mouthful, her face puffed up like a little bun, Sona swallowed the remaining milk from the straw. Her cheeks flushed red as if she were drunk, and her eyes glazed over as she stood up.
Clearly, although it was her first experience in life, and her first experience after that, the emotional impact from Irelia, Seraphine, and the other girls meant that, regardless of Sona's mental state, her body was already fully prepared through intense indirect stimulation.
After the mist cleared, Fain changed into new clothes—just to cover for Sona.
Standing on the open ground to the side, Xia did not try to run away. Or rather, in Xia's perception, there was no weakling among the people around her. Especially after the man who seemed to be the leader threw her aside, she seemed to be free, but the woman behind her, wearing shoulder armor and carrying a greatsword, locked onto her aura almost instantly.
Although they hadn't fought yet, Xia could subconsciously feel the pressure emanating from her opponent. Trying to escape… a 30% chance? No, that's not right. Perhaps even less than 20%, or even 10%.
Kasumi's Vastayan intuition and connection to nature magic told her that even in a one-on-one fight, the woman behind her held a complete advantage. Moreover, there was this man who even transcended nature magic…
Fain wasn't surprised by Xayah's reaction. After all, as mentioned before, not everyone could recognize the twin dragon mark on the back of Fain's hand.
383·The Angry Mist
"Don't even think about getting any information about the tribe out of me. Whatever it is, I will absolutely not tell you!"
Staring coldly at Fain before her, Xia's voice was filled with indifference and resolve. Because her connection to nature was much stronger than that of ordinary people, her perception of the decline of natural magic was also more acute. This lament, originating from primal essence, allowed Xia to more clearly feel the damage that humanity had inflicted on the world itself during its development, and naturally, her undisguised disgust and rejection were plainly written on her face.
Sensing Xia's thoughts, Fain stroked his chin but didn't seem to care much.
“I won’t force you to say if you don’t want to, but I didn’t come here for sightseeing.” Farn said calmly, “According to Venerable Kalmar’s observation, although the war ended prematurely, its aftermath has spread to the three northeastern islands, including Kui Lin. The natural magic here is closely related to the tranquility of the spiritual realm. Now that the tranquility has been broken, the natural magic will begin a new decline… Your senses should be more acute than those of ordinary Vastaya, so you should know whether what I’m saying is true or false.”
Upon hearing Farn's words, Xia blinked almost imperceptibly.
Just as Fane said, because of her more acute senses than ordinary Vastayans, Xia could perceive changes in magic more clearly than her kind. This sensitivity is the reason for Xia's natural malice towards humans, and also the reason why she is stronger than ordinary Vastayans. Now, having heard Fane's words, although Fane's attitude was one of "believe it or not," Xia had actually already accepted the facts Fane spoke of when he said that the peace had been broken and that nature magic would begin to decline.
And Fahn certainly wasn't just talking the talk—in fact, after successfully getting Syndra pregnant, Fahn had a lot more to do. It wasn't that Syndra needed constant care. After all, while Syndra might look delicate and frail, her actual physical condition was definitely not the fragile physique portrayed in the game.
While many heroes in the League of Legends universe are influenced by Western fantasy themes and depicted as having glass cannons by various writers, Fahn has always been a well-rounded individual with high moral character, intellectual ability, physical fitness, aesthetic appreciation, and practical skills. Even the technology of using "happy factors" to promote physical growth, which he developed himself, was essentially a way to compensate for his physical deficiencies.
Under Faen's influence, Syndra naturally followed suit. Although her physical strength was far inferior to Faen's, with ample dark energy to replenish her, even while pregnant, Syndra's physical strength surpassed that of most warriors and tanks in Runeterra.
The main reasons are twofold—firstly, new developments have emerged in Noxus. Although Swain is currently still in Ionia, Karma is preparing to sell him for a good price, and while sending him back, she also wants to send someone to gather intelligence on Noxus's internal affairs. And at this stage, that person is Fain.
Meanwhile, the Night of Souls is about to begin again on the Shadow Isles, and Nera has already arrived in Bilgewater to find Fane. Whether for Sarah or for Nera, Fane will have to go to Bilgewater next.
In every sense, each silver party was a process of emotional exchange and mutual enjoyment between Fain and the girls, as well as a time for the girls to share information, help each other, and relay local news to Fain. However, most of the time, these official matters were handled alongside Fain's decadent private life.
But there's nothing that can be done about it, especially with a seemingly calm and intelligent career woman like Caitlin. On one hand, she's driving them crazy, and on the other hand, she's making them force themselves to calmly state the news from their area and the help they need. This contrast between public and private matters and the sense of immorality is just too great.
In order to catch up with the things that follow, Faen has decided to speed up his conquest progress. Of course, this conquest progress does not refer to things that can be dealt with casually, such as resolving the conflict between the Ionians and Vastayans or dealing with the decline of Primal Essence and Natural Magic. Rather, it refers to speeding up the conquest of the female heroes that Faen is so concerned about.
Of course, if you really want to talk about whether this counts as serious business, Fan believes it absolutely is – after all, Soraka herself said that Fan experiences a lot of pleasure during parties and deflowering, and while experiencing pleasure with these girls, Ossilash's corruption also significantly decreases and declines. So, the reason Fan has to do this is all Ossilash's fault.
The way to speed up the process is simple – just spread happiness factors directly through the air.
And so, from the moment she launched her attack on Faen, she began absorbing happiness factors, and now, with her accelerated breathing, the rate at which she absorbed these factors had also increased. Lost in thought, even Xia herself didn't realize that her hostility towards Faen was dissipating and crumbling at an astonishing speed.
This process didn't directly increase Xia's affection for Fan, but rather revitalized her senses, making her more acutely aware of certain things. Just like now, after Fan explained the reason, Xia's initial look of disgust and rejection quickly faded. In the end, although some instinctive wariness remained, she no longer viewed him as a sworn enemy as before.
However, Xia's long-held beliefs still made it difficult for her to easily trust Fan, this outsider. But considering that what Fan said was indeed what nature magic was experiencing, Xia remained silent for a moment before feigning indifference and saying, "Who knows if what you're saying is true or false? Unless you can provide further proof, don't expect to get any information out of me!"
“That’s really heartbreaking.” Hearing Xia’s words, Fain shook his head. However, his so-called heartbreak was just talk, because from beginning to end, even when he said he was heartbroken, Fain’s face did not show the slightest bit of resentment. He simply said calmly, “But it’s not incomprehensible. After all, you have nothing left to lose.”
384·Confident Xia
Hearing Fain's words, Xia wanted to refute them, but after a long silence, she finally just snorted and said nothing more.
But without a doubt, the situation is as Farn said, it has reached its lowest point. If the primal magic in the northeastern regions of Ionia, such as Quelin, also degenerates, then all Vastaya will have nowhere to go—they might survive, but losing their connection to nature would be no different from being dead for many Vastaya.
Seeing that Xia had fallen silent, Fain did not urge her. Instead, he gave Xia the horse that had previously belonged to Sona and said, "If there are no problems, let's set off. It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. I will ask your elders in person when we get to the Arakkoa tribe."
Hearing this, Xia raised an eyebrow. Although she still harbored strong suspicions about Farn's appearance and motives, Xia was somewhat calmer now, and carefully asked, "Why do you think the elders will believe you?"
“Because of this.” Fain revealed the double dragon mark on the back of his hand again and said calmly, “This is the mark of Venerable Karma, and also the mark of the spirits of Ionia. Once you see this mark, your elders will naturally understand my identity and mission.”
Upon hearing Fain's words, Xia glanced suspiciously at the double dragon mark on the back of Fain's hand. Although she was already somewhat convinced, considering her earlier resolute rejection, Xia, still a little proud, remained silent for a moment before coldly snorting and saying, "You're the only one who said what this mark is. Who knows if what you're saying is true? I don't believe it."
“Then try asking the spirits of nature,” Farn said. “If you cannot discern it yourself and do not believe what I say, then the spirits of nature will give you the answer you need.”
Hearing this before, Xia wouldn't have taken it to heart. But now it's different. With the constant intake of pleasure-inducing factors, although Xia remained wary, she had unconsciously lost the initial aversion and rejection she felt towards Fain's personality and way of thinking. The remaining wariness was simply a normal emotion when facing a stranger.
That's why Xia was momentarily bewildered after hearing Fan's words. Noticing this, Fan looked at Xia again. Seeing this, Xia almost instinctively turned her head away, a hint of shame flashing between her brows.
Looking at Xia's current state, Fain hesitated for a moment before saying, "You...you don't still know how to communicate with nature, do you?"
“…Ah.” Hearing the hesitation in Fan's words, Xia's lips twitched slightly. She clearly sensed the surprise and confusion in Fan's voice. While there wasn't much malice, just Fan's astonishment, Xia's heart wasn't as calm as it appeared—what did she mean by “I don't know how to communicate with nature?” Was this some common ability? Even among the elders of the tribe, only the very elder, well past seventy, could communicate with nature to some extent with proper ritual preparation, right? Why did it sound like a technique anyone could master? Just hearing about it was already strange enough!
Sensing Xia's surging displeasure, Fain stroked his chin and said, "That makes sense. After all, you're still in the growth stage. Even if you have a closer connection with nature magic, you haven't yet acquired the mental strength required to directly sense the presence of others."
"Ha, are you trying to take this opportunity to mock me?" Xia glanced coldly at Fain, a disdainful smile appearing on her lips.
It's not that I'm targeting Faen specifically, but in a place like Ionia, it's all too common for elders to use their status to reprimand children. After all, Ionia itself is a composite of Asian regions, so it's natural for similar stereotypes about East Asian children to appear.
To this, Fan simply shook his head and said, "No, I'm just stating the facts. However, if you need it, I can help you sense the consciousness of natural magic more quickly and communicate with it."
Upon hearing this, Xia almost instinctively looked at Fain in front of her. After regaining her senses, Xia quickly looked away, then snorted coldly and said, "That sounds nice, but what price do you really expect me to pay?"
“You don’t need to pay anything,” Farn replied.
"Then why did you help me?!" Xia asked coldly.
“Because what I need to do is restore the natural magic here to its former glory and unbridled nature,” Farn said calmly. “And I am not a Vastayan, so if you could feel it for yourself, you would undoubtedly be able to better convey the essence of natural magic itself. Therefore, I am helping myself rather than helping you.”
Upon hearing this, Xia secretly pondered Fain's words. Although Xia didn't say anything more, considering her wary nature, like a wild bird, her silence in the face of Fain, a complete stranger, undoubtedly conveyed her inner approval.
After saying that, he paused, then shook his head and said, "However, this will indeed have some negative effects."
"...What negative effects?" If Xia hadn't taken Fan's suggestion seriously before, now that Fan had explained the reason, Xia relaxed her guard a little and asked, "Or are you about to reveal your true colors?"
Farn did not refute this, but calmly said: "The way to connect with natural consciousness more quickly is by activating your spirit and perception, so that when your spiritual accumulation is not yet stable, you can make up for it through physiological perception, and thus perceive natural consciousness itself."
"The substances that revitalize your body and mind are made by me, and naturally they will contain some residue from my manufacturing process. In other words, this will also make your perception of me more sensitive and acute."
Before Fain could finish speaking, Xia couldn't help but sneer and said, "Ha, I thought you were talking about some kind of side effect, but it turns out it's just that it makes me more wary."
385·Unique
Xia didn't take the price Farn mentioned to heart. On one hand, Xia had complete confidence in herself. On the other hand, Vastaya people naturally possessed far greater resistance to toxins than ordinary people, and because of her connection to the natural order, Xia's resistance in the spiritual realm was also far superior to her kind. Under these circumstances, Xia didn't believe that the negative effects Farn mentioned would have any impact on her.
Even if there are toxic components, it will only sharpen one's senses and make one's intuition more vigilant. And if there are other toxic components, the consciousness of this land will naturally provide corresponding prompts to help one avoid being negatively affected.
Ultimately, we Vastaya are simply exceptional; we possess a deeper connection with nature itself. This is something that even the most powerful humans can't comprehend.
Thinking this, a hint of pride appeared on Xia's face.
For any Vastayan, a closer connection to nature is a source of pride. This is also why many Vastayan despise humans—their weak connection to nature, and even their unconscious harm to the world and the very essence of nature. Just as Shen witnessed the Noxians trampling on and killing the spirits of the land, the Vastayan similarly abhor the harm humans inflict on the spirits of nature.
It can only be said that Xayah and her group of Vastayans are all in Ionia. If they were allowed to travel around the continent of Valoran and see firsthand how the Noxians conduct warfare and development, they would find the situation in Ionia not so unacceptable when they return.
Thinking to herself, Xia looked at Fain and asked, "Where's the stuff? How are you going to help me?"
In response, Farn extended his finger, revealing a drop of milky white liquid at his fingertip, which refracted colorful light like a pearl in the sunlight.
Looking at the liquid that Farn had somehow produced, Xia's eyes showed a hint of suspicion as she asked, "This stuff... can it help me?"
“Why don’t you ask nature itself?” Farn reminded her—although Xia couldn’t communicate with nature’s consciousness itself, her connection to nature, which far exceeded that of ordinary Vastaya, made it relatively easy for her to receive some insights from nature’s consciousness.
Hearing this, Xia nodded, then stared at the water droplet on Fain's fingertip in silence for a moment. After a long while, Xia nodded with some doubt and said, "Hmm... I'll trust you this time. How do I use it?"
Although she received a vague affirmation from the consciousness of nature, Xia's personality still prevented her from speaking properly.
Faen didn't seem to care much about this. After all, Jinx, Vi, and Caitlyn weren't exactly the same as Xayah at the beginning, but they were all pretty much the same. They all had their own ideas, felt they wouldn't be affected, and always tried to avoid speaking properly. But now? Let alone relatively normal girls like Jinx and Caitlyn, even the tomboy Vi, when she was with Faen, obediently ovulated and descended, her nipples became engorged and lactating, becoming incredibly feminine and coyly wanting to have a baby, and even unconsciously engaged in female competition with other girls at parties?
Having complete confidence in his abilities, Faen didn't reject Xayah's current arrogance; in fact, he found it quite amusing. After all, having already "experienced" so many girls, Faen knew very well that the more arrogant a girl was, the harder she would fall when she went astray, and the more obsequious she would become when she transformed into a "contrast bitch." Take Caitlyn, for example. On the surface, she was a refined lady from a prestigious family, ambitious, and uninterested in men. But now she was the most promiscuous one around Faen, and several times she had gone so far as to not only reach a plateau but also have her "baby parts" prolapse. After recovering, she needed IV fluids to calm down and work at the Piltover Council.
As for now...
Upon hearing Xia's question, Farn replied, "Open your mouth."
Hearing this, Xia assumed Fane was going to put the water droplet in her mouth, so she opened her rosy lips without thinking much of it. But then, Xia saw Fane put his finger directly into her mouth. She wanted to spit it out and scold Fane, but before she could, Fane's hand had already grabbed Xia's tongue. This prevented Xia from speaking or pulling her hand away, until the liquid was completely smeared on the crow-girl's rosy tongue. Only then did Fane nod and withdraw his hand. Seeing this, Sona quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Fane's mouth.
This surprised Faen, who was about to find a tissue to wipe himself. After noticing Faen's surprise, Sona was also slightly taken aback. She then blushed, lowered her head, and didn't say anything more.
Seeing this, Riven could only sigh helplessly—although she had only been taken advantage of by Fain and hadn't been officially deflowered yet, Sona was clearly too naive and had a very shallow understanding of the world. She had already unconsciously begun to regard Fain as her master and even started a kind of female rivalry.
Although she was helpless, Riven was almost certain that Fain was very susceptible to this—this bastard's favorite thing was to taint the pure white flowers with his own color, turn them into his own fleshy shells, and then watch these once pure, noble, and proud girls compete with each other for favor, revealing their lowly, sow-like appearance.
