-136- The Spark of Zaun—Zeri is curious

"Who are you?"

Kaya looked at Linwin, who had barged into his room. Initially, he didn't feel much, but when he saw Kaisa by Linwin's side, Kaya immediately froze.

Suddenly, Kaya remembered something.

Yes, yes!

It is said that there is always a woman in Lord Linwin's entourage wearing purple.

But calling it clothes, what she wore seemed more like armor, or rather, her skin?

Now, looking at Kaisa, Kaya immediately knew who the young man offering help was.

"I'm Linwin, the Ninth Councilor you just mentioned." Linwin smiled, showing his teeth.

"Ninth Councilor?" Sain paused, "You're Councilor Linwin?"

"Yes, and you must be Sain, right? I came specifically to find you."

"I read your letter and know your current situation." Linwin looked at Sain but shifted his attention to Seraphine beside him.

I must say, Seraphine is really good-looking.

That combination of innocence and charm, no wonder she has so many fans who have a crush on this woman.

Beauty is justice?

Digressing, Linwin brought his attention back, looking at Sain, and said seriously, "Sain, you have a kind wife, a lovely daughter, you manage a music store, and you have the skill to repair various instruments. While it may not be an outstanding ability in my eyes, it happens to be the skill Zaun needs now."

Linwin continued earnestly, "The people of Zaun need a better quality of life, not just food and sleep but also daily entertainment. Music is an excellent form of entertainment. Therefore, Sain, on behalf of Vander, the Lord of Zaun, I agree to your return to Zaun. As the Ninth Councilor of Piltover, I grant your request!"

"Thank you. Thank you so much!"

Sain was about to kneel down immediately.

But a gentle breeze blew, and then, Sain looked down in shock at his own feet. He couldn't kneel down.

Because a gust of wind gently lifted Sain up.

This reminded Sain of the Ninth Councilor's ability—a powerful man who could manipulate the wind like a god.

"No kneeling allowed!"

Linwin scolded, "Zaun doesn't go for this. Zaun has no nobles, and now, there's no Chem Baron either."

Kaisa gave Linwin a strange look.

She has been living in Zaun for a long time.

Before, Kaisa didn't understand because no one told her. She had been detached from the human world for too long. After all, back then, Kaisa's daily life was eating, sleeping, and fighting in the Void. She had long lost touch with the human world.

But now, Kaisa understood many things.

For example, even though there is no Chem Baron, there is Linwin now!

Now, the biggest gangster in Zaun is Linwin, right?

Linwin is the head of the biggest gang in Zaun, right?

"Get up, Sain. From today onwards, you are a Zaunite."

Linwin raised his hand, and Sa'an stood up. He immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Sir Linwin."

"Tomorrow, you can settle down in Zaun with your family. Rest assured, many Zaunites are in a similar situation, but you are among the first to come back as talents. So, Zaun will have houses prepared for those who return. You can rest assured to move in."

"I understand, sir."

"By the way, Sain, I have one more thing."

As Linwin spoke, Seraphine suddenly stood up on the side.

She whispered, "Dad, I think Sir Linwin has something to say to me."

Sa'an hesitated for a moment, nodded, thinking his daughter might have sensed Linwin's inner thoughts. He said, "I understand, Sera, be careful not to offend Sir Linwin."

"Sain, don't call me Sir. Either call me Councilor or just Linwin. 'Sir' sounds strange to me."

Linwin walked toward Seraphine, raised his hand, and created a barrier with the wind, blocking outside sounds. However, due to the close proximity of the green-haired girl to Seraphine, Linwin didn't exclude her.

After all, there was nothing secretive about it.

Now, between the two cities, no one could stop Linwin.

Janna?

Janna is now coiled on Linwin's head!

Janna has a pretty high favorability, she is one with Linwin!

As long as it doesn't go against her principles, what Janna does for Linwin is either help if she can or turn a blind eye.

Having emotions means having selfishness.

Janna is not an embodiment of absolute rationality.

She also has her own selfishness.

So, now, in front of Zevi, Linwin looked at Seraphine and directly said, "You know why I'm looking for you, right?"

Seraphine nodded but asked Linwin with confusion, "How do you know about my abilities, Councilor Linwin? We should be meeting for the first time, right?"

"That's correct, but I know a lot about you."

With that, Linwin snapped his fingers and looked at Seraphine.

With a puzzled look, Seraphine squinted her eyes, then widened them, exclaiming, "Wait... I seem to, I can't hear your voice anymore."

"This is normal, Seraphine. Your ability to hear others' inner voices is a unique kind of magic, and I'm a powerful mage." Linwin smiled, saying, "So, it's just some minor tricks."

"Magic? Are you talking about magic now?"

Zeri chimed in, excitedly.

"Who are you?"

Linwin looked at Zeri, and honestly, he had no impression of this girl with hair tied in two bun-like shapes.

There's no such character in the League of Legends universe.

So, even though she looked pretty and wasn't a background character, she could only be a passerby.

Result...

"Snap!"

"Crackle!"

Zoe extended her left hand, snapped her fingers loudly, and then, Linwin saw a streak of yellow and blue-green lightning appearing at her fingertips. It happily flickered, making crackling sounds incessantly.

"!"

Linwin: "???"

WTF!

A passerby is casting magic!

"Sir Linwin, I'm Zeri, Zeri from the Flower Street community!"

With Zeri becoming increasingly excited, that arc of lightning grew larger. From a thin thread, it became the size of a copper tube, and finally, with Zoe's arm half the size, the lightning flickered, making a continuous, intimidating sound.

"Do you know Miss Powder? I love Miss Powder! She's my idol. Sir Linwin, you guys were talking about magic just now? Actually, I can do magic too. I was born with magic, you know. I, I, I want to help Zaun! So, can you introduce me to Miss Powder? I want to be her apprentice."

"I'm also an inventor!"

Zeri said excitedly without stopping, and that lightning snake continued to sway like a snake. Frightened, Seraphine quickly ran to Linwin's side.

Zeri is terrifying! 

Meanwhile, Sain is already astonished.

Lightning the size of a child's arm appearing from someone's hand? What's going on here?

Kaya is even more agitated, shouting, "Zeri! Don't be disrespectful to Sir Linwin!"

Even though Linwin told them not to call him Sir, Kaya and Zeri know that it's because of Sir Linwin that Zaun is getting better and better.

This is no secret; Linwin selflessly contributed his wealth to build Zaun, leading to its current prosperity.

Therefore, they sincerely call him Sir; they truly believe Linwin deserves that title because he is someone who shoulders responsibility and makes contributions.

But, no matter how Kaya shouts, Zeri can't hear.

"How about it, Sir? My ability is generating electricity, lots and lots of it. If there's a place running low on power, you can find me!"

Zeri chattered, "Although contributing by providing electricity to the community is good, I feel like I can do more. I want to help the entire Zaun!"

With Zeri's increasing enthusiasm, the lightning in her hand has become as thick as Linwin's arm.

A lightning bolt as thick as a robust man's arm.

If that strikes someone, it could kill them directly!

"What's your name?"

"I'm Zeri, Sir, Zeri!"

Linwin: "."

I really don't know you!

Zeri, who is Zeri anyway?

In Runeterra, Linwin hasn't heard of this character in the official expanded novels!

Another Silco-like guy?

Just as Linwin thought that Zeri might be like Silco, someone interrupted his speculation.

Linwin was genuinely shocked.

With his mouth wide open and eyes wide, he completely lost the demeanor of a Zaun big shot, a Piltovan Councilor.

Because he heard the voice of the system.

Ding: "The Spark of Zaun—Zeri" is curious about you.

Ding: The Spark of Zaun has increased its favorability towards you.

Ding: The Spark of Zaun hopes to gain your approval.

Ding: The Spark of Zaun hopes you will speak quickly.

The Spark of Zaun?

What on earth!

Does League of Legends have such a character?

Linwin was dumbfounded!
