lol: Bind Syndra at the start

With the support of powerful dark magic, he can easily understand the key to other magics and fully master them after spending a short period of time.

He felt that Syndra also had this ability.

As for why the other party never used those fancy spells in the background story, Ryan thought it was probably because he was too lazy.

Why bother drawing lines when you can just smash your enemies with dark magic or lift a mountain to crush them?

But Ryan is different.

As a more ambitious 'male Sindra', he hopes to experience more of the wonders of magic.

Life is about experience.

Especially for someone who came from a Muggle planet, if he didn't use those magics before traveling through time, and if he still doesn't use them after traveling through time, then wouldn't it be a waste of time to travel through time!

Dark magic is taboo among the Ionians.

But after two years of research, Ryan discovered that the so-called dark magic was not as terrible as others imagined.

Its main function is to give the host powerful strength.

The secondary effect is to give the host a gloomy temperament.

As for why the reputation was shattered in the end, Ryan thinks that your bad performance at playing Yasuo does not prove that there is something wrong with the hero Yasuo!

Look at Syndra's yandere dream that will drive her crazy. In this mental state, even without dark magic, can she be a good person?

Dark magic simply amplified her madness.

But what am I?

I am not an ordinary mushroom!

But he is a good boy born under the red flag.

Even if his personality is amplified by his power, he is still Captain America, not Homelander!

The only pity is that even though he has such a strong spirit, the amount of dark magic he currently possesses is probably the same as the amount possessed by Sindra's ten toes!

Although it can grow slowly on its own, Ryan actually wants to try the feeling of being filled up directly like Syndra.

The road is long and difficult...

Ryan sighed silently.

"..."

Hui did not respond. Over the years, whenever Ryan talked about things like "the past" or "memory", he would always remain silent.

Artists often have their own way of thinking. Ryan's past is bound to involve certain secrets, and secrets will breed dangers, and dangers will disrupt the status quo...

He and Ryan are friends, but being friends doesn't mean being selfless.

For him now, he just wants to have a stable environment where he can express his thoughts freely.

Ryan's presence here is the only factor that maintains this environment.

If a certain point is touched upon during a discussion of past memories.

Ryan's departure was undoubtedly a great sadness for Hui.

So he has always had his own way.

Ryan's past does exist, but as long as he doesn't talk about it, it can also disappear.

But this time, although the past is gone, the future is here.

"Has anything happened in Ionia recently?" Ryan asked.

Why do I have so little dark magic?

Because the progress is too slow!

But now the big wave is coming, how can I not ride it?

Whether it is for himself or for those ordinary people who are kind to him, or for Syndra who is in a deep sleep, he must step out of his comfort zone.

I stayed here before for safety.

But the spirits of nature have been a lot gentler to me recently, so it should be okay to expand my range of activities a little.

Hui looked up. Aside from the time they first met, Ryan rarely asked about Ionia. In his words, life wasn't about living in a distant place, but about finding peace in the present moment...

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"A... friend said the Noxians might be having second thoughts."

"friend......?"

Hui shook the paintbrush in his hand. He knew that Ryan was communicating with the residents around him.

But these people are all honest people. They admire nature and pursue freedom, and spend almost all their time on how to live in harmony with natural magic.

They don't pay attention to what's happening in the outside world, so where does this news come from?

Hui was silent for a moment, and then attributed the answer to Ryan's past.

How could a person who masters dark magic be as clean as he appears?

Smart people always have their own methods and channels, and the only ones who can hinder them are themselves.

After clearing the doubts in her mind, Hui did not choose to hide the truth.

It's okay for friends to have their own little thoughts, but if you deceive others to just do it, then you can no longer be friends.

"Yes, the Noxians have been restless again recently. It is said that several scout teams have infiltrated. The elders in the temple are currently discussing whether they need to move temporarily to avoid the limelight."

"Have you confirmed a large-scale invasion?" Ryan asked doubtfully.

After learning to 'paint', he had a general understanding of Hui's strength.

Although there is still a big gap between them and the legendary gods, the most elite soldiers of Noxus are just strong ordinary people. They cannot withstand the flood in the scroll.

The only thing that could allow Hui's sect to hide was a large-scale Noxian army.

So, the scale of this operation is so large?

Ryan couldn't help but feel a little worried.

His current strength is roughly the same as Hui's. With the help of the characteristics of painting magic and dark magic, it is not difficult to defeat Hui.

But it is almost impossible to directly influence the direction of a war.

"A large-scale invasion? No, not this year at least. No matter how efficient the Noxians are, they still depend on the sea. But the temple houses centuries of art. We should avoid those barbarians if we can."

Why can Ionia, where strong people are everywhere, be invaded repeatedly by Noxus, where most of the people are ordinary people?

In the past, many knowledgeable people on the Internet published thousands of words of interpretation on this, but those interpretations were far less convincing than Hui's dozens of words.

It seems that the Ionians do not have the concept of "Ionia is one family" in their bones.

They will lend a helping hand to an individual, but can also remain a spectator of the suffering of a group of people.

As an outsider, Ryan has no right to criticize ideas that have been passed down for thousands of years.

After all, that's how most Ionians think. As long as they're willing to bear the consequences of their choices, everyone has the freedom to make their own choices.

But from Ryan's perspective, neither his experiences since traveling through time nor the universal concepts he once accepted could allow him to stand idly by and watch the suffering of ordinary people, especially when he could have prevented it.

Ryan looked at Hui and thought for a moment before asking:

"Can I go to Gouya Temple to take a look?"

-

We have entered the signing process, brothers who have not invested, hurry up and get on board!

Chapter 5 Help me practice

Taking the first step is inevitable, but where to take the first step is a question that needs to be considered.

After careful consideration, Ryan decided to let Gouya Temple be his first official door to this world.

Doing so is safe;

Second, safety;

Third, you can get more information from the masters.

In this world where information dissemination is not very efficient, a person's age is almost proportional to the amount of information he or she has.

The masters’ age and status undoubtedly made them some of the most learned men in the land.

Although they once became Hui's background in the background story, their only role was to highlight Hui's strength. In the end, they didn't even have a name and were killed.

But Ryan felt that the masters were not as terrible as the background story said.

To put it simply, although they have limited ability to implement it, they can definitely talk to you endlessly.

To some extent, they have entered the realm of invincibility.

Hui agreed to Ryan's request without hesitation.

He has been planning how to bring Ryan closer to Gouya Temple. He didn't have the opportunity before, but now that the other party has taken the initiative to ask, how could he refuse?

Even if he doesn't join after he goes there, with Ryan's talent, he might be able to spark some ideas with the masters.

Even if the spark of art only appears for a moment, it has the potential to illuminate the world thousands of years later.

In order to ensure that the fireworks could be produced, Hui scheduled Ryan's visit for three days later.

Gouya Temple holds art exhibitions regularly, and the exhibition happens to be held three days later.

......

Watching Hui's figure gradually being swallowed by the sunset.

Ryan stood at the door of his tree house, holding his cheek and thinking about what Hui said when they left.

"Introduce a friend to me..."

"Why one, and not a group?"

Ryan suddenly felt a little sympathetic towards Hui.

This guy has been carrying the title of heir for so many years, but he only has one friend?

I am a young man living by the sea, and I have made a lot of friends in the past two years.

Although most of them are girls, and they all have some evil ideas about themselves.

But that's what friends are like.

In his previous life, Ryan wanted to be his friend's father.

What kind of friend are you if you don't have evil thoughts?!

But, if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem strange.

Who would be willing to risk dying at any time to be friends with Hui?

This friend who has lived for so many years must be good at writing.

Hiding his pity for Hui and respect for the strange friend in his heart, Ryan turned and walked into his tree house.

Everything in Ionia is animistic.

This is not only reflected when they beat Ryan, but also in all aspects.

As if sensing Ryan's imminent departure, the tree house was particularly gentle tonight.

There was no sudden crack in the ground, nor any dry branch that suddenly popped out.

The leaf curtains at the door drooped, and the vines by the window drooped their hands.

It is like a good friend who has been with you silently for many years, immersed in the atmosphere of parting.

Ryan was keenly aware of this change.

Instead of going in, he sat down on the doorstep and reached out to pinch the leaves hanging beside him.

The leaves are a little yellow.

Or rather, the entire tree house seemed stunted in the eyes of the Ionians.

The one who caused all this was Ryan.

Dark magic is not dangerous to the host, but its nature makes it instinctively snatch the magic around it.
