The Beginning (Part 1)

Under the clear sky, Lich approached Noxus. He was waiting in front of the mouth of the cave. She walked through the rocky slopes. A slightly strong sea breeze occasionally pushed her off balance. Noxus instantly waved his hand when he noticed Lich. But in that instant, he changed his mind. He recalled Lich's actions against him, which had kept him awake all night. He then tried to commit guilt tripping by putting on a mad face. The Lich was getting closer as she looked at him strangely with the face he put on.

"Hi, Gorrila. A red-eyed man with a black robe and a pouting face is a straight gorilla impersonation. Anyway, where is she? " Lich talked with a straight face as Noxus was insulted by it. He held a grudge, but he never knew how to react in this matter. Not so long after that, Noxus remembered a famous quote in Sula.

[Self-power is the greatest God-gift that humans receive.]

"No, Gorilla has brown eyes, you idiot!" Noxus tried to give his best revenge insult with his blessing. After Lich watched that insult, she almost burst out in laughter. She thought that was the weakest answer possible. But she successfully held it and maintained a flat expression.

"Well, that doesn't change the fact that you are ugly as a gorilla. Just bring Eterna here. " She sighed as she shrugged her shoulders and raised her hands to face the sky. Noxus looked so frustrated.

"Argh... Stop it. Anyway, Eterna is still sleeping. " Noxus felt tired of any argument, so he tried to shift the topic.

Let's wake her up. Where is she? " Liche was so energetic as she walked inside the cave. Before she could step any further, Noxus stretched his right hand and blocked the entrance. Then, he turned his head and shook his head.

"Stop it... get some help. Don't be too obsessed with her. " Noxus said them word by word. He was tired of the problems that Lich could cause.

"Do you want to see heaven once more?" Lich clenched her fist as her eyes peered at his crotch. He felt horror run down his spine. But, all she did was just creepily smile.

"No-no, just wait for her. "You made her energy run out too much last night." Noxus stuttered when answering the question as he covered his crotch to avoid another wave of going to heaven.

"Tsk... okay. I will be back then. " Lich wasn't pleased with the result as she turned her body and gradually disappeared. Before she fully did it, Noxus reached for her left hand without hesitation. She was startled by a sudden skinship as she almost slipped into the sea. But, Noxus successfully caught her waist and pulled her back.

"W-what are you doing?" Lich shyly answered as she tried to keep her coldness. She avoided eye contact with Noxus. When she tried to peek at him, she saw Noxus was awkwardly acting like a bodybuilder. He showed off her muscleless arm while closing his eyes.

"Urgh..." Noxus grunted as he brought his hands across his stomach like a crab shape. She couldn't say anything. She just stared at him with a disgusted face.

"Really... What are you doing, Noxus?"

"Ah... Nah. Just stay here a bit. I have something to discuss. He suddenly corrected his posture and returned to the main topic. He looked at Lich, and he smiled at her. Lich blushed as her heartbeat came faster. She was confused since she had never felt the heartbeat move that fasts, other than traumatic feelings.

What is this feeling? Why is it appearing after he saved me before?' She stared blankly at him as she thought about the change in her.

"O-okay, if you force me like that," She hesitantly answered while avoiding eye contact. Noxus looked confused about the gesture.

"Where is the forcing part?" Noxus said since he didn't know what was happening. He never saw Lich act that way.

"J-just talk directly. What do you want, Gorilla? " Lich rejected answering, as she felt a desire to leave there as soon as possible.

"I want you to stop calling other believers useless and similar terms. What if they hear you? " Noxus snapped back into other's personality. He became so serious and tense. He fixed his robe, including the conical hat.

"We already talk about this. I just want stronger people here. Bring more like Eterna's kind," Lich also back her original self.

"Not if you still do someth-" Before Lich finished, she suddenly disappeared. Noxus was almost mad at her, but a faint voice came from inside.

"Who you talked with, Noxus?" It was Eterna. She was still in her robe that had been worn last night. She rubbed her eyes.

"Ah... Eterna. You wake up?" Noxus turned his body and approached Eterna.

"Yes, just now," Eterna answered as she messed her hair up.

"I just talk with myself. nothing important," Noxus lied as he touched the Eterna's shoulder. He tried to convince her. He glared and frequently nodded his head slowly.

'Is he become crazy? Talk with himself and glaring?' Eterna confusedly questioned Noxus's mental state.

"Now you understand. Eterna, you need to go take a shower. We will go outside," He tapped his hand on her shoulder a few times.

"Yes, Sir. I will take a shower," Eterna shook as she thought that he was capable of mind-reading as well. She spontaneously answered as if Noxus was giving an order of march along with the salutes she used near her forehead.

"Now, go." She turned her back as she swung her feet and hands synchronized. She looked like someone that was served 10 years in the military. She then walked toward the bathroom. When she moved toward there, Lich appeared again.

"If I could, I would just talk with her, but I didn't. I tried to respect your existence. So, Stop postponing recruiting people like Eterna. I mean, look at her."

Eterna kept walking like in the military while ignoring her landing feet. Not long after that, She slipped away since her feet landed on a slippery bathroom floor. She fell as she screamed.

*Thud*

"Ouch..." She acted like she died as her head turned left, her eyes closed, and she stuck out her tongue. Both Lich and Noxus were speechless with that.

"That person?" Noxus pointed at her as he kept a poker face.

"Are you talking with me, Noxus?" Eterna dropped the act as she tried to see who he was talking with, but Lich disappeared in time.

"Ah... no-no. Wait, I will help you." Noxus said as he approached her to help. He helped her go to the bathroom and then he returned to talk with others.
