Probably due to the fact that the land is filled with various spirits of nature and primordial magic, and the entire land is immersed in a sea of magic, Anne discovers that the animals in this land of Ionia are very different from those in other places!

Under the influence of the sea of magic, they not only possess many strange abilities similar to the innate magic of the population, just like those magical creatures that she deliberately transformed in Demacia? Moreover, they are far superior to other creatures in terms of intelligence, and there are even many animals, they are actually some intelligent human races?

In this land, they all have a common name, that is-Vastaya!

Not just animals, but even plants......

The plants that grow in the sea of magic have even begun to give birth to primitive spirituality, although it may not be as moving and talking as the kind of tree man that Anne has seen, but the hole or tree house that little Anne is now working on is made of vines and branches spontaneously entwined and with dense rainproof leaves on the top, which is the best proof that the plants have spirituality!

Of course, even if Anne herself had a better way to verify these strange phenomena, she was now busy with more important 'big things' and did not intend to dwell on those inconsequential things.

No matter how magical the land was, it wasn't for her to care, she just had to play and eat here, and the rest, whether animals or plants, didn't matter!

"Uh-huh......"

o(?′Θ?Θ`?) o It's delicious......

"Really nice little house, just no toilet and no bathroom, it can be a bit of a hassle...... By the way, Miss Ahri, are you the only one in your family? Oh, these sun fruits are really delicious, they must have a lot of magic and fire power, and you will feel warm all over your body after eating one, if you can transport it to that Freljord on the other side of the sea, you will definitely make a fortune! ”

(((ψ(?′?▽?`?) o)))

Little Annie, who was a guest at the house of Miss Ahri, who was dragging nine big fluffy tails behind the big round ass in front of her, was eating each other's food, while the little adults generally commented on the other party's strange tree house or tree hole, and the fruit that the other party took out to entertain herself.

She thought that if the merchants of Avarosa could come to this Ionia and bring back a boatload of Sun Fruits to Freljord in the snow and ice, and make sure that they would not spoil and rot, they would be sold for more than the Pure Ice, right?

Of course, this is little Anne's own idea, and she can't guarantee whether it will be like that in the end...... Anyway, if the merchants had this kind of fruit in their caravans when she was in Freljord, she would have been willing to buy them with a lot of gold, even if it was the same weight of gold coins.

Thinking of the wonderful taste and experience of enjoying this sunberry in a world of ice and snow, she almost couldn't resist the urge to teleport herself back to the snowy plateau of Freljord......

It's a pity that she finally held back.

Because she wouldn't have thrown herself into a trap and run back to catch that bad old man named Ryze! Although, she, Queen Anne, is not afraid of the other party, and she is not very rare for a certain orange world rune stone...... However, she racked her brains to finally succeed in getting what she had in her hand, even if she didn't need it, even if she looked at it, it was not rare, even if she threw it away or gave it to others, she wouldn't easily return it!

“……”

After hearing the little girl's words, the girl, who was still a little surprised and apprehensive, subconsciously looked down at a certain ornament on her waist, which was a pair of twin gems that could be put together, the most cherished thing for her.

"I don't have a family, I'm the only one here now......"

Ahri, who had already wrung out the water beads on her body, her hair, and the nine big white tails behind her that were also dripping with water droplets, couldn't help but fall into deep thought after hearing the little girl's words.

Family......

It was a word that was a luxury for her......

Because, she really doesn't have any family, at least, that's what she remembers...... She was abandoned from an early age in the perennial snowy woods of northern Ionia, in the company of a primitive and obscurant group of ice foxes...... Until she grows up and learns to draw magic from the world around her and use them to shape into magic balls and attack her prey......

"Huh?"

∑(￣ω￣〃)ゝ？

"Don't have a family? That's pathetic......"

(°ー°〃)

"That's it, Miss Ahri, I'll be your friend from now on! Of course, you can also treat me as your family! ”

o(?????????) o?

Seriously, Anne likes this young lady with nine big fluffy tails very much, not because the other party is good-looking, not because the other party looks pitiful, and not because the other party's tails are very comfortable to the touch, very soft, very slippery, and very ......

(?????)

Anyway, she definitely didn't like each other because she thought that the other party could hold it as a pillow when she slept at night, and when it was the kind of plush 'automatic constant temperature' warm quilt!

（…… ）

?? ˉ?ˉ??

"Family......"

"Anne ......"

"I'm actually a monster...... A man-eating monster...... I was destined not to have family, and I was not destined to have friends......"

Although the other party was a little surprised to say this, after remembering why she was living in seclusion here, she had to droop down the pair of fox ears on her head and the nine big tails that were dancing behind her ass and gradually drying.

If it weren't for the fact that the little girl in front of her was not an ordinary person, and the other party seemed to have a powerful spell ability and a faint taste of danger, I'm afraid that she would have tried her best to absorb the life and spirit of the other party, and enjoy the primitive hunting desire that has always made her obsessed, right?

But

She resisted that urge after all, because she knew that it was not right to do so, and the reason why she lived here alone was to overcome and control her cruel and primitive desires.

"Monsters?"

(′?o?`)？

"Still cannibal?!"

!!! ∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

"Miss Ahri, let me tell you, cannibalism is not right! Although it is normal for people to eat animals and animals to eat people in turn, you are different! You are a creature with half of your body in human form, and you are also an intelligent creature, how can you eat human flesh? ”

s(?｀ヘ′?; )ゞ

Anne didn't understand what people had to eat, so she felt that it was necessary for her to correct the concept of eating of this beautiful young lady!

On the continent of this newborn island of Ionia, there are delicious animals of that size and the delicious plant fruits that she is eating at the moment, if she is hungry, just go out and catch a few cute little animals and come back to roast or boil them, why do you have to eat people?

For example, the dragon bird flying in the sky in the forest outside, the 'little matchmaker' squirrel climbing in the tree, the flower deer running on the ground with beautiful red horns and long feathers but not flying, or the big fish without scales and the big turtle with rock shells swimming in the water, etc., they look so beautiful and must have a lot of meat, why don't you eat them?

“……”

"I didn't eat their flesh, what I ate was their life spirit and soul memory fragments......"

"I even, on a moonless night, forcibly plundered the life essence and soul of all the people in the entire village......

"I, in fact, am the legendary man-eating nine-tailed demon fox on the Ionian continent......"

"I'm a monster......"

I don't know why, Ahri was able to let go of the most basic vigilance and vigilance in front of this little girl, and directly told her secret.

before

After killing and absorbing the spirit of a hunter, the terrifying legend of a demonic demon fox was learned from the memories of the other party...... It was precisely because of that that she truly understood what kind of existence she really was, and she also felt guilty and deeply remorseful for her act of hunting the lives and souls of others.

She had feared that she would actually become the legendary monster of her prey's memory, that she was really a cruel man-eating monster...... Therefore, she also wanted to be patient, wanting to eat only ordinary animals and plants and their spirits like the other Vastayas......

But if she does not eat for too long, she will feel her strength gradually dissipate, and that cruel addiction will torment her day and night, so that she will not eat and sleep day and night, and will have to seek out the intelligent prey again and enjoy the delicious meal that entangles her contradictions.

She had also tried to control herself, grabbing only a small part of her prey's life spirit and soul fragments, and only absorbing a few memories or two, without directly killing them...... At that point, her attempt almost succeeded.

But the good times did not last long, and the endless hunger that was like an addiction tormented her, and soon made her succumb to the temptation of primitive greed, and did the wrong thing that slaughtered an entire village in one night, and made her tormented by her conscience for it......

It is precisely because of this that she has never been able to forgive herself, grieve for her existence, and repent for her evil deeds...... So, she had to hide in the forest, hiding alone in the cave of this big tree willing to host her, living in isolation, hoping that this solitary life away from all kinds of humans would allow her to successfully control her cruel and cold desire to eat people.

"I see......

∑(￣□￣; )

This fox lady with nine big tails turned out to be a guy who was addicted to sucking people's lives and souls, just like the high elves with magic hidden that she had seen before, and if she didn't suck it for a day, she would be uncomfortable and easy to enter all kinds of bad states and lead to the decline of magic power?

"But ......"

"People don't seem to have a good way to do it now, and I'll tell you when I think of it!!"

(*^﹏^*)

If it's like the High Elves of the world of Azeroth, then it's easy, just get a sunwell or a source of magic power with the same attribute energy, then it's not too difficult for the omnipotent Queen Anne.

However, if she was obsessed with absorbing other people's souls, life forces, and memory fragments like the other party was now, she would have no choice...... Although there was a huge amount of energy in her copied soul gems, they did not have the kind of soul fragments and life force that the other party needed.

“……”

"Anne, can you show me that rock of yours?"

Ahri had actually noticed the strange stone in the other person's hand that had been exuding powerful magic from the very beginning, when she was on the edge of the small pond, after all, it was very conspicuous.

At this moment, the stone was being randomly placed by the little girl on the edge of the table formed by the twisting and circling roots of the tree spirit in her house, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was sure to get it!

However, she was a little afraid to ......

"Stones?"

゛(‘◇’)?

Anne subconsciously followed the gaze of the other party's eyes and looked to her side...... There, a stone with an orange glow was being left there, and on top of it, there was an esoteric rune imprint, from which a steady stream of magical energy was emanating, even in the land of Ionia, a land with powerful magical tides, it was particularly dazzling and eye-catching.

"Huh!?"

"You're talking about it...... It is a world runestone with powerful energy, and it is what I learned from a ...... Found in an ownerless iron chest! Now, there's a very bad, very bad bad old man looking for it......"

?o(^?^*)o

Now, it doesn't take much thought for Anne to know that the big bald head of Ryze must be so angry that he will start wandering around the world looking for her and the runestone in her hand, right?

Although, she doesn't like this kind of thing, and she really wants to give it back to the other party, and let that bad old man take it to a place where the so-called forbidden ancient tree grows and seal it well, but...... It hadn't been long since she got it, and she hadn't been able to pull that face off so quickly and return it to the bad old man for nothing!

"Anne ......"

As the two sides became acquainted, Ahri's eyes were full of surprise, and he stared at the rune stone with that curious, greedy, and cunning gaze.

Of course, greed and cunning or something, it was just a true expression of her nature, and she didn't think about any bad ideas.

"You...... Can you show me it? ”

Ahri didn't care what the name of this strange stone exuding powerful magic was, and no matter how the other party found it, she was like taking a good look now, to see if this stone could be useful to herself, and whether she could absorb the magic in it, so that she could slowly quit her bad 'hobby'?

Because, Ahri can see that this little girl doesn't seem to attach much importance to the stone, maybe, she can use some of her own collection to exchange with the other party?

“！！”

"No! You can't touch it!! ”

Σ(?д?lll)

"Why not?"

Ahri was puzzled, her outstretched hand almost touched it, but as a result, the quick-eyed little girl snatched it first.

"No, no, no!"

(｀ε′)o

"Why?"

It's just a stone, so why not show it to yourself?

Ahri felt very aggrieved by this...... She just entertained the other party warmly, and told the other party all her secrets......

"Why, just because your current magic is too rough, and your spirit is not strong enough, and your soul is full of other people's fragments? So, if you touch it casually, you'll be in bad luck!! ”

o((⊙﹏⊙))o

Before, Anne really didn't believe what the old man Ruiz explained to herself, but after actually obtaining a complete World Rune and studying its utility, she understood the old mage's worries at that time.

Although her powerful Queen Anne would not be easily affected by anything, and would not accept the meaningless power of that tattered rune, the concern of a bad old man at the beginning was not unreasonable.

Therefore, now this young lady Ahri, who is not very strong, must not be able to, and should not easily touch this world rune, that is not a joke, if you are not careful, something big will happen!

"Sure enough, I'm a monster, and no one will like me......"

The pair of fox ears and nine big furry tails that Ahri had just lifted wilted again, looking listless and pitiful.

She felt that what the other party said must be an excuse, a clumsy excuse......

It's a shame that the other party just said that he was willing to be his own friend and her own family...... But now, he didn't even want to show her a stone...... She just wanted to see it, and she didn't have to take it!

"Damn!!"

Σ(((つ｀Д′)つ

Anne suddenly discovers that now ...... She seems to be playing some familiar role? Just like the old bare-headed bare-headed old man who refused to show her the stones?

"It's not impossible to show you, but you have to show me why you have nine tails first? Can't you only grow one?! ”

-=???? =????? (〃?? ω??) ノ?

All kinds of animals with a tail, such as tigers, foxes, orc mothers, draenei, basilishes, etc., Anne has seen a lot, and it is not a rare thing! However, it was the first time she had seen a humanoid fox with a full nine tails!

Therefore, in her anger, she shook off the stone in her hand and flew forward directly, intending to pick off the other party's skirt, as if she wanted to study it carefully?

It would be best if you could cut off a few or all of them to make a little dress or a scarf for her Queen Anne...... She loves the smooth touch! Anyway, she won't die without a tail, look at her Queen Anne, she has never had a tail, so there is no need for that kind of superfluous thing to grow at all!

"Ahh

"Don't !!"

Don't bother to look at the world rune that was thrown aside, Ahri immediately pushed away the other party's face with both hands and protected his tail tightly.

"Hey!"

o(｀ω′*)o

"Show me your tail, look at it and you won't die!!"

? (ψ?? ˇ??)?

Queen Anne said: The scissors she conjured up in her hand were sharp, and they had been treated with advanced disinfection and painkillers from the Kprustar Zone, so they didn't bleed or hurt, and they didn't leave nine ugly scars behind her round buttocks!

“！！”

"Stop! I don't want your stone anymore!! ”

If the price of getting that stone is the possibility of losing his tail or all the hair on his tail, then Ahri will definitely not agree!

"Just cut it, and I'll help you grow it later?"

~(￣0￣)/?

"Don't think about it!!"

soon

In the depths of the dense forests of Ionia, in the beautiful primeval garden in front of the house of a certain nine-tailed demon fox, the two soon frolicked together in the dense jungle flowers......

As for the treasure that a wandering mage had tried so hard to get his hands even at the expense of killing his old friend, he didn't know which corner he had been thrown into at this time. If, knowing that the World Rune Stone had been abandoned so quickly by some terrible little girl, I am afraid that some wandering archmage who had traveled all over the Runeterra, determined to protect the world, and was in a hurry on the ice field of Freljord, would surely vomit blood three times and die in some snow pit, right?
