Ionia, province of Baruo, Wuji,

On the martial arts arena, the disciples of the Wuji faction wearing sword robes are facing each other in a sword duel, and the winner will then fight with the winner until the strongest one is decided.

Wuji school of swordsmanship with agile special body style, with a light and elegant style, the sword goes to the edge, pay attention to the sword momentum sword moves endlessly, cast up, like a bird dancing in the wind and rain, very ornamental beauty,

It's just that this competition is just a battle practice that has nothing to do with life and death after all, and most of the performances are in the form of performances, and everyone is on point.

After understanding the essence of the sword dance, Lester, who was sitting on the sidelines, began to enjoy tea leisurely, accompanied by Yi and Ahri, who was safe and secure, but he didn't feel bored or bothered to pay attention to irrelevant things.

"Yi, how does your strength compare to your senior brothers?"

Stroking the smooth back of the little Ahri, Lester noticed that the napping little Ahri seemed to have grown a little.

The young master who was accompanying him glanced at the master who was sitting with Taeji, a councillor from Baruo, and whispered, and said with a normal face.

"On weekdays, Yi only has a slight upper hand, and he is lucky to have a slight advantage."

Knowing that Yi is humble and cautious by nature, Lester would not really believe Yi's modesty words.

"I wonder what it means for you to learn a sword?

I once visited Ling Zun in Wuji Village at the bottom of the mountain, and they had high expectations for you since they were children, but you have been up the mountain for several years and have never come down the mountain to meet them.

When the sword test is over, I will go down the mountain and leave, and if you have anything to say to your parents, I can bring it with you. ”

The young master with a guilty face lowered his head and did not respond from the front.

"Mr. Li, please help me tell my dearest relatives, my mind has never changed, it's just because of the strict rules and regulations, I am trapped for a while...... When I succeed in my studies, I will go down the mountain and make amends under my knees! ”

"Well, if that's what you think."

Two days later, Lester left the Wuji faction, returned to Wuji Village, took monkey wine, changed into an impermeable hood, and began to actively search for mountain bandits and robbers in Ionia, and raised Ahri with the spirit of a wicked man.

Three years have passed, and Ahri has successfully completed her first transformation after a deep sleep, turning into a petite and cute three-year-old girl, if you don't look at a small short tail at the back of the thigh, it looks like a porcelain doll carved in pink and jade.

"Ba, ba! Hug! ”

Watching Ahri in disbelief in the white light of his soul into a girl shouting to his father to hug, Lester, the old father who had brought a fox child for three years, burst into tears, fell to his knees on the ground, and hugged his daughter, who was only knee-high, when Ahri threw himself into his arms.

"Ahri, Ahri, are you going to call Daddy?"

The trembling man blinked and stared down at his daughter with teary eyes, while little Ahri nodded his little head with a sweet smile and wiped the corners of Lester's eyes with his little hands.

"Baba, don't cry, don't cry ~ Ahri blows ~"

"Woooooooooo......oo He is really sensible and good, and he knows how to comfort people at such a young age. ”

But he didn't think about it, Lester cried even louder, and only he knew how difficult it was for him to get such a 'daughter' who was not related by blood and only had a close connection in quantum mechanics.

It's so difficult that you can't do the second one step by step, which can only be said to be a miracle.

"Let's go, Baba will take you to find your mother, you must miss your mother too......"

In the comfort of little Ahri, Lester finally calmed down the joy in his heart a little, and was about to pick up Ahri and return to Navoli Province to find Lolit, but saw Ahri hugging him again, smiling.

"Ma Ma is here!"

Lester froze, then forced a smile.

"I'm a bully, huh? How can it be hemp? Do you know who Ma Ma is? Ma Ma is called Lolit? ”

"Lolit Mama?"

Ahri scratched her head, a little confused, but kept looking at Lester.

"When Baba is away, it was Lolit Ma who accompanied you every day, did you forget?"

"Hmm......"

Finding that the explanation didn't make sense, Lester had no choice but to pick up Ahri.

"Ahri, let's go home first!"

……

Leicester is currently located in the province of Kwai Lin in the east of Ionia, and it will take at least four months to return to Omikayalan in Navoli Province through the usual route, and the nearest Bander portal to Kwai Lin will not appear until two months later.

With a sense of urgency, Lester contacted the Imperial Military Department directly through the underground network of Nightblade, and two days later, one of Lester's lovers, Thea Silvermoon, the Silver Dragon Princess of the Wind, personally landed on the land of Aoi Forest.

Changing from a dragon body to a human body, Thea, who is more than two meters tall, came to Ahri's side like a giant, Xiaodouding Ahri hid behind Lester with big eyes in tears, and his little hands tightly grasped Lester's trouser leg, Lester hurriedly comforted the little guy who was scared by Thea and picked him up.

"Don't be afraid, this is Aunt Thea, who is here to take us home."

"Nozomi, Aunt Thea~"

said weakly, before the little Ahri could react, she was directly snatched into her arms by the motherly Xia and kissed and kissed, and the little Ahri could only make a weak whining.

"I didn't expect the little Ahri to be so cute, mua~ let my aunt kiss her!"

As if sensing Thea's pure kindness, Ahri was no longer afraid, and buried her head in Aunt Thea's cotton ball with her backhand, arching comfortably and arching again.

Seeing this, Thea looked at Lester teasingly.

"Lecht, it seems that little Ahri likes this as much as you do...... It's a pity that Aunt Xia doesn't have milk, otherwise she would have been able to breastfeed little Ahri, but it's a pity that someone doesn't have this mouth......"

With an awkward smile, Lester could only divert the subject.

"I'll leave it to you this time, I need to return to Omikayalan as soon as possible."

"Hold the little Ahri well, I'll fly fast, don't drop the child."

After handing Ahri back to Lester, Thea reverted to the dragon in the open field, and when Lester carried Ahri to the back of her neck and sat firmly, Thea rose from the ground and rushed into the air.

Unlike in the past, when riding a dragon was the equivalent of taking a knife, Thea now has mastered the powerful magic of the wind, which can not only fly long distances across continents at high speeds, but also form a wind shield to keep out cold air and wind, so Lester doesn't need to worry about Ahri taking additional damage during the flight.

With Thea's help, Lester returned to the Psychedelic Forest in less than a day, but Thea did not leave, but walked with Lester and Ahri and entered Omikayalan together.

This time back to Omikayalan, the previously messy villages have been consolidated into several large settlements.

Different Vastaya populations live in different areas, with the land population ruled by Hlstrom, the flying population ruled by Cheer, and the marine population ruled by Omelia.

The angler Jar had turned a deaf ear to what was going on outside the window, and had already left Omikayalan with the concession badge given by Leicester, not knowing where he was in the lakes and waters of Runeterra, enjoying unfettered fishing...... To be honest, Lester is still a little envious of the tooth who has achieved freedom in life.

Although he was very satisfied with the renovation work so far, Lester did not meet Che Er and other Xia Rui, but directly entered the special space where the root system of the Sacred Tree was located.

"It's the first time I've been here, and I didn't expect the roots of the Sacred Tree to look like this."

Thea made no secret of her interest, and her transformation also used the power of the Sacred Tree, but not at the roots, but on the surface, led by Omelia.

Because of this, her relationship with Omelia has always been good.

"There is also a sixth named Lolit, who lives here, and Lolit is Ahri's mother and also serves as the guardian of the sacred tree."

Walking around the sacred tree, but not finding Lolit's sleeping figure, Lester's face was a little ugly.

"Lolit! Where are you? ”

There was no response, as if the space was as silent as the three Lesters.

"Is something wrong?"

Sensing that Lester's face was wrong, Thea's face became solemn.

"It stands to reason that Lolit should be sleeping here...... Could it be that he can't wake up because he is in a deep sleep?

Ahri, can you feel where Lolit's mother is? ”

Putting Ahri down in his arms, Lester crouched down and forced a smile.

"Ahri, can you help Dad find Mommy?"

"But, but, Mom is here?"

"Where?"

Seeing Ahri pointing at him cautiously, Lester couldn't help but break down a little, as if the mother in his mouth and the mother he knew were not the same existence at all.

Seemingly frightened by Lester's expression, Ahri soon became teary-eyed.

"Don't worry, it's scared of the child."

Thea, who was silent on the side, picked up the aggrieved little Ahri, and her tone was slightly accusatory.

"Think about what went wrong."

"You're right, I'm sorry, Ahri, Daddy scared you,

Xia, give me some time...... Ahri, I'll leave it to you first. ”

"Go, woo little Ahri, aunt hug."

Alone at the waterhole, Lester jumped on the lotus leaf, sat down cross-legged, and bowed his head in contemplation.

"Now there are two questions, one is where did Lolit go? The other is why Ahri doesn't recognize Lolit as her mother, but recognizes herself as her mother.

But if you think of yourself as your mother, why do you call yourself dad? Could it be that in Ahri's eyes, he is both a father and a mother? ”

Sighing lightly, Lester didn't believe it was that simple, although he had indeed been a father and a mother all these years.

Or is it that in Ahri's eyes, Lolit is not a mother...... Mother is someone else, and it's in my body, and neither are Jana and Evelyn...... Wait, in my body, it can't be Elena who has turned into a life rune, right? ”

was taken aback by his own speculation, and when he calmed down, Lester felt that this possibility was very high,

The reason why he couldn't combine with the woman to have offspring was nothing else, it was precisely because Elena, who had become a life rune, used all her life force to strengthen her body, so that his essence became a banban root powder, so much so that she could drink it casually, but there was no way to enter the soul.

Faced with this situation, Lolit thought of a way to bypass the essence of life, that is, to use the power of the sacred tree to reconcile directly from the soul level, so that he and Lolit's own spirit can complete the fusion, and then use the sacred tree to nurture the twin spirits born to construct the body.

In a sense, Lolit used the sacred tree to achieve the act of creating life that only a god can do, and Lolit also said that the vitality in his body is the most perfect energy to promote Ahri's growth, and when Ahri was still a bud, he was locked in the sacred tree as a biochemical reactor to provide life force.

From this point of view, Ahri used to treat Elena, who provided her vitality, as her mother, but what is Lolit to Ahri?

Thinking of this, Lester felt that he had grasped the key point, so he left the lotus leaf and found little Ahri who was playing a drawing game with Sheena.

"Daddy......"

The aggrieved Ahri hesitated, but still opened his arms to Lester and let Lester pick him up.

The sensible Ahri made Lester regret his gaffe a little.

"Got it?"

Throwing away the stick she was using to paint, Sheena glanced at Lester.

"I guess I have some ideas."

Smiling at Thea and turning to look at Ahri, Lester asked in as gentle a tone as she could.

"Mommy has always been with Daddy, hasn't she?"

"Hmm~"

Seeing Ahri nod his little head, Lester took Ahri to the root of the sacred tree and pointed to it.

"What is the mother of the tree that gave birth to Ahri to Ahri?"

"Mother Tree?"

Ahri was stunned cutely, but shook his head, looking dazed.

Lester was not in a hurry, and asked step by step.

"Does Ahri remember the memories of living here? At that time, Ahri was still asleep in the little flower bud, and with the help of the mother tree, she grew up quickly. ”

"Dad, Ahri doesn't remember......"

The little one looked a little distressed.

"Well, can Ahri remember anything? Where did Ahri meet her father? ”

This time, Ahri gave a fairly clear answer.

"In the forest~"

After a few more questions, Lester was sure that the 'forest' in Ahri's mouth was not Omi Kayalan, but the Psychedelic Forest, and Ahri didn't even forget the memories of the Garden and the Dream Tree.

Lester had some suspicions that Ahri had gone wrong in the Garden of Forgetfulness, but he took good care of Ahri in the Garden of Forgetfulness, and Pansijana, who was guarding the Dream Tree, didn't seem to really choose to kill herself, and the possibility of taking action against Ahri was very small.

If it weren't for the problem in the Garden of Forgetfulness, it might have been Lolit's doing, but now Lolit's life and death are unknown, and Ahri is ignorant and ignorant, so it is difficult to investigate.

So far, Lester has no choice but to put the mystery aside.

"Let Aunt Thea play with you here, Dad go out to do something, Ahri is obedient, okay?"

"Good~"

Handing over the well-behaved Ahri to Thea, Lester decides to talk to the Charles.
