If he were to identify him simply by his appearance, Li Lin would most likely not be able to recognize Ledes.
But when it came to the story of this infatuated man, he knew a lot.
As a brave general under Foyeg, Ledes had a crush on Kalista. The two did not reveal their feelings for each other until they were betrayed by Hecarim, the general of the Iron Order of Kamavia.
Unfortunately it’s too late.
Turning into an immortal ghost, Ledes was eager to help Kalista lift the curse, and tried countless methods.
At first, he killed Hecarim and his Iron Legion members countless times in order to take revenge. Later, he directly attracted Kalista and asked her to confront Hecarim.
Unfortunately, everything backfired. Even though Kalista personally used a spear to send Hecarim’s soul back to the Black Mist, nothing was left except a moment of satisfaction.
She is still in a state of losing herself, sinking deeper and deeper into the world, constantly responding to mortals’ revenge contracts against her and helping them punish the betrayers.
Ledes also fell into deep despair because he could not redeem the pain of his beloved, and he did not hesitate to seek suicide. He broke out of the black fog and came into the sunlight, where he was burned and destroyed.
However, the torment caused by the Curse of Ruin is eternal, especially for a soul as strong as his.
In the process of pursuing death and rest, he also tried to travel to various parts of the world while taking advantage of the black mist of the Soul-eating Night.
He was torn apart by Ryze with rune magic and returned to the black mist; he brutally killed lives in Bilgewater, and his faith was reduced to nothing by Baru’s sacrifice; he invaded Mount Targon from the other side of the coast and was killed by Leo, the goddess of dawn. The power of the sun exploded from Na’s Zenith Blade and was incinerated…
His memory was confused by repeated setbacks and deaths. Ledes had already forgotten most of his memories, but he still remembered Kalista.
For a thousand years, Ledes spent most of his time indulging in the illusion he made up, that is, the moment before Kalista died, enduring the pain alone.
But now, he has ushered in redemption…
“You killed Foego and ended the curse of ruin.”
The other souls made way for Ledes until he came to Li Lin and stood a few meters away.
Ledes’s body was much larger than what a human should be, even more than two meters taller than Azir before his second stage of ascension, which made people wonder whether he had the blood of a troll during his lifetime.
Before Li Lin could speak, Ledes dropped the huge spiritual sword and broken shield in his hand, moved his right leg back and knelt down on one knee, kneeling to him in a surrendering posture.
“Thank you… for letting me and Callista get relief.”
Li Lin stepped forward, rune magic attached to his hand, allowing him to touch the ethereal soul, and helped Ledes up.
“For the people of Runeterra, this is what I should do.”
Ledes stood up and turned his gaze to Maokai, the Tree of Life. “I’m sorry, I failed to stop Foego and Hecarim back then, and I have caused you a lot of trouble in the past thousand years… “
“Huh, just know it.”
Humans brought the Curse of Destruction, but in the end it was humans who lifted it, allowing the Shadow Island to regain its vitality. Maokai’s hatred for Kamavia was still there, but not much was left.
Moreover, in the past, Maokai learned the reason for the Ruined Curse from the soul pastor, and learned that Ledes protected the islanders and resisted the king’s order to massacre, so he naturally had no hatred for him.
Yorick, already in tears, passed through the souls, in the middle of the circle they formed.
Because of the only remaining water of life, he is the only survivor of Shadow Island. He has been watching the island for thousands of years, just to find a way to lift the curse and restore his homeland to its original appearance.
He walked tremblingly in front of Li Lin, inserted the shovel in his hand into the re-enriched soil under his feet, and saluted Li Lin in the posture of worship of the monks on Fuguang Island.
“Thank you… for helping me complete my mission. Please accept my highest tribute.”
Yorick was so excited that he could hardly speak. Li Lin gave him a gentle smile and lifted him up like he had just lifted up Ledes.
“As the guardian of weak souls, you who are not afraid of ruin are the most respectable people.”
While they were talking, Gwen flew down from the sky on a pair of scissors.
She is a doll sewn by Isulde herself, with eyes of different colors and double curly blue hair hanging in front of her body, adding a unique style to the dress she is wearing.
Gwen, who was once a doll, accompanied Isolde all the way. After taking on flesh and blood, she inherited her master’s relics – scissors and sewing needles.
The reason why she was able to recover from the doll state was because some of Isulde’s soul fragments that had absorbed the water of life attached themselves to her body, allowing her to control the holy mist and restrain the black mist.
Because the undead are too powerful, Gwen has been wandering on the edge of the Shadow Island, and will go to the Blue Flame Islands with the black mist from time to time to help the local residents resist the attacks of the Mist Walkers.
Today, she happened to be near Hylia, trying to trace the source of the black fog-Foyego, and something unexpected happened.
The power of life resolved the curse of ruin, eradicated all dark magic, and even made her life more vigorous.
Gwen tried her best to go to the source of this life force, which was the core area of Hylia’s capital city, and was shocked by the scene in front of her.
“Ledes, the talking tree, the tall flying squirrel, and another piece of the master’s soul!”
Her voice was very small, like mumbling to herself, but it could not be hidden from the hearing of the spirits of nature and the ascended ones.
Maokai ignored Gwen, but Aatrox was different. “Hey, little girl, be careful what you say. I am Aatrox, a celestial warrior of the Shurima Empire.”
Realizing that she was essentially a doll, Aatrox restrained himself from complaining about her desire to use scissors as a weapon, and simply corrected what she called him.
“I’m sorry, I never heard the master tell your story!” Gwen, who had just landed, quickly apologized, “I’m so rude…”
When Ledes saw Gwen, his face showed disbelief, “You are the doll next to the queen?! You are actually alive!”
“It was the master’s soul that gave me life.”
Gwen lifted the hem of her skirt with one hand and saluted the people around her. Her eyes quickly focused on Senna, who had been silent and couldn’t get a word in at all.
“I feel the master’s breath!”
Senna also felt a familiar aura on Gwen’s body. She held a gun with one arm and stretched out her right hand, and a blue ball of light appeared in her palm.
Gwen’s face lit up, “Master!”
“Isulde also saved me, but this is only part of her.” Senna sighed, “She has fallen asleep again now. We have to find her soul to let her rest in peace.”
“Now that the source of the ruin has been removed, I can help you find it together!”
Then, Gwen turned to look at Ledes, with a trace of confusion on her face, “You…”
“Since the queen’s soul has given you life, Miss Gwen, you should take a good look at this magical land with her desire to stay away from the palace and travel around the world.”
Ledes gave her a knightly salute, a trace of bitterness flashed across his face, “As for me…”
He raised his head and looked into the distance. Not only him, but all the souls turned their sights in that direction.
“The Twins of Everhunters have arrived.” Ledes murmured, “But I will never see her again for the last time…”
“Ledes.” A familiar voice interrupted Ledes’ thoughts, shocking his heart.
The source of the sound was in the direction of Qian Jue. The soul that had long since returned to human appearance, but was slightly illusory, was following behind the sheep spirit and wolf spirit.
“Calista!”
Ledes desperately ran towards the incarnation of death, while Callista seemed to be uncontrolled by Kindred, leaving the sheep and the wolf and hugging Ledes.
“Poor soul with passionate love in your heart, be grateful to the world’s favored one.” Sheep Spirit’s voice was clear and clear, “He made a request to us, and we brought her soul.”
“Otherwise, I would have had a good meal long ago!” Wolf Spirit growled viciously.
At first, Ledes didn’t realize who the “World’s Favored” Kindred was talking about, but he noticed that they were paying tribute in Li Lin’s direction, and he was horrified.
“You…no, you are the favored one of the world!”
For a moment, all the souls’ goals were focused on Li Lin again, but he just kept a faint smile.
“May your souls rest in peace.”
