Chapter 282: Souls from the Ancient (Karma Arc)

Ionia has always been the most mysterious territory, the beginning of the birth of civilization here, can be traced back to a long way, in that ancient times that are not well known to people now, Ionia contains the most mysterious and powerful power of this Valoran continent.

In an ancient period, this mysterious territory called Ionia dominated the development of the entire Valoran continent, but due to some hidden and more hidden uncertain events, most of those who controlled the mysterious power fell into an extremely deep sleep for some reason.

There are also more mysterious methods of inheritance, such as reincarnation, these mysterious beings have chosen to leave this timeline temporarily in order to survive something they don't want to see, or at that time, something has appeared more powerful and threatening in front of their mysterious and powerful existences.

It's not so much about circumvention as it's about fear.

And Karma, on the other hand, has such a mysterious soul hidden in his body.

Kalmar is the incarnation of the soul of an ancient Ionian, serving as a beacon in the spiritual realm and leading generations to come.

The most recent incarnation of her was a twelve-year-old girl named Darha. She spent her childhood in the northern highlands, strong and independent, always dreaming of life outside the village.

But Darhar began to see some strange visions on and off. The sights were strange and felt like memories of the past, but the girl was sure she had never experienced them herself.

At first, he could have deceived himself, but the illusions grew worse and worse, so much so that Darha felt that he was going mad.

Just when she thought she would spend her entire life in a sanatorium, a group of monks visited her village. They came from a place called the Temple of Eternal Existence, where the Holy Master Karma had died just a few months ago.

The monks are looking for the next reincarnation of the old man and believe it is in this village. They went through a series of checks on everyone they met, but in the end they could only return empty-handed.

As they passed by the sanatorium, Darha jumped out of the hospital bed and rushed out to stop them. She cried out to them about the visions she had seen, and said that the whispers in her head were the voices of the monks.

They recognized the signs immediately. This is their Karma. Scenes from the past have poured into new carriers.

That moment changed Darha's life forever. She said goodbye to everything she knew, and then went to the Hall of Eternity to receive the monks' teachings.

In the years that followed, they taught her how to communicate with her ancient spirits, and the girl found herself drowned out in the voices of thousands of others, each calling for ancient wisdom.

Kalmar has always advocated peace and harmony, teaching people that evil deeds are rewarded and should not be ignored. But even after she had become Karma, Darha still had a hard time understanding this simple fact.

Sure enough, when Noxus invaded Ionia, these truths were truly tested. As Noxus continues to advance inland and thousands of people die, Karma has to face the harsh reality of war.

She could feel the boundless destructive potential buried in her soul, expanding, and with it, the voice of the youthful and impulsive Darha: what was the point of the power that was left unused

The thought agonized Karma. In the end, she relented and decided to kill only one person, but she had to choose the right person. She confronts a commander on a Noxian battleship, unleashing divine rage.

But the spell that was originally planned to target only one person wiped out the entire crew of the battleship in a heartbeat.

While the Ionians cheered at the apparent victory, Karma felt a sense of loss. The clear voices in her head were now silent, and she felt Darha take control again.

But she was even more worried because she realized that she had made a big mistake. She returned to the Temple of Eternity to meditate and penance for her actions that disturbed the harmony of the soul's home.

Killing is always easy, but at the cost of losing true enlightenment. She has defiled her immortal soul, and the souls of her followers, so she will do everything in her power to avoid further harm.

Although the war with Noxus is now over, many in Ionia have become willing to use violence to get revenge, even to the point of being ruthless against their own neighbors. Karma was determined to do everything in his power to guide them to a more peaceful approach.

Every time she avoids a fight, more lost voices return, offering their eternal wisdom.

Sindra was born with boundless magical potential, and could do nothing but love to use this incredible energy of her own will. As each day passed, her magical gifts became more effective and more devastating. Sindra rejects any notion of balance or restraint and only wants to maintain control of her energy, even if it means that those authorities who want to stop her will dethrone her. During her youth in Ionia, Sindra's reckless use of magic frightened the village elders. They took her to a remote temple and left her in the care of an old mage. To Sindra's delight, the old mage explained that the temple was a school where the old mage could guide her and allow her to develop her talents. Although she had learned a lot during her time here, Sindra felt that her energy was no longer as strong as it had been when she was younger. Her frustration develops, and she eventually confronts her mentor and asks for an explanation. He uncovers the truth: he suppresses Sindra's magic, hoping to help her learn control and restraint. She complained of his betrayal as she further demanded from the old mage to dispel the spell that had stopped her in her tracks. The old mage stepped away and told her that if she couldn't control herself, he would nullify Sindra's magic entirely. In a rage, Sindra summoned energy and rushed towards the old man against the wall. After the death of her mentor, Sindra felt the first surge of her unbridled potential in years.

Although she won her freedom, she refused to return to the society that tried to steal her gifts. Instead, Sindra decided to turn the former prison into a fortress. Urging the boundaries of her magic, she tore the entire building from its foundation and lifted it into the air. Having been able to delve into her craft freely, Syndra now aims to become strong enough and then destroy the weak and stupid leaders of Ionia, and anyone who dares to restrain her.
