Capítulo 224: CHAPTER 224 - Star Idol Development Plan
As Sera was lost in thought, Li Lin bent down and hung the necklace around her neck.
Even though the spiritual contamination in her mind had mostly dissipated, Sera still felt a bit bewildered.
Being able to suppress her abnormal state, this pendant was undoubtedly a magical item.
Moreover, considering it belonged to Li Lin, a member of the Kiramman family, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was the most outstanding craftsman among his peers in the Upper City.
This pendant called "Protector of Illumination" must be quite expensive...
Sera's face flushed red, and she became flustered, "This... this is too precious, I can't..."
"It's nothing to me, but it can be very helpful to you, so don't refuse," Li Lin interrupted gently.
Sera looked up with a puzzled expression, staring at Li Lin for a long time, "Why... why are you helping me?"
Her parents had once taught her that the hearts of the upper class were treacherous, and one should not be deceived by their sweet words.
But Li Lin was willing to help even the people of the Undercity, so Sera felt he probably wasn't the kind of person her parents warned about.
Hmm, if he really wants me to do something, I'll just return this pendant to him.
She reassured herself inwardly.
"Because you need help, and I usually lend a hand to those who need it," Li Lin smiled, "provided they are worthy of my assistance."
Sera paused for a few seconds, the look of doubt on her face becoming more evident, "But we don't even know each other..."
"You willingly chat with Mrs. Iyai every day without asking for anything in return. You're a kind girl, and that's enough reason for me to help you."
"Are you talking about Granny Iyai?"
Sera looked towards the distant stall, a touch of sadness in her expression.
"Her husband passed away early, and her daughter, raised alone, died tragically in an alchemical accident. Her grief touched me deeply, so I chat with her just to alleviate her loneliness."
"And, in fact, it's not entirely selfless... Mrs. Iyai always leaves me a sweet cake every time."
Li Lin fell silent.
Before crossing over, he thought Sera's character was completely naive and didn't fit the style of the Twin Cities.
But now, it seemed rare to be born in such a decadent city and still maintain such a pure and kind-hearted character.
Ekko is the son of Zaun, and Sera is equivalent to a combination of the kind sides of both cities.
In the original timeline, she accepted the guidance of a shell person's soul in the primordial crystal, intending to use singing to change the contradictions of the Twin Cities. Perhaps it could be called wishful thinking.
But now, with himself here, her "dream" might really come true.
But Sera is still young now. Even if the problems caused by her talent become more serious and her parents seek out "Hextech Crystals" to make suppressive devices, it will have to wait a few years.
A thought flashed through Li Lin's mind.
If, for now, Sera were treated as the future star of the Twin Cities music scene...
A star idol development plan wouldn't be impossible.
But the problem lies in the fact that external development is secondary, and the guidance of a soul of a certain shell person in the primordial crystal is the top priority.
Hmm... I'll have to think about it again.
"Oh, by the way, I just heard you humming a song, and I thought it was pretty good."
"Eh? You, you heard me singing...?" Sera's voice became smaller and smaller, and she shyly lowered her face.
Although she didn't know how Li Lin heard it, maybe it was because of the additional function of his powered armor hextech device? But the fact that such a thing was known by her admired person...
"This song, I just composed it in my spare time and haven't finished it yet..."
"I think it's pretty good. You don't need to be shy," Li Lin reassured softly.
In fact, the Infinite Battle Armor doesn't even have a function to amplify sound, and Li Lin didn't hear Sera's humming just now.
Li Lin just guessed that she might be like this based on his understanding of her. Even if he guessed wrong, it's not a big deal, considering her character, she wouldn't think too much.
But getting Li Lin's approval made Sera's lips curl up uncontrollably, "It's not that good~~"
Suddenly, she remembered something, "Oh, by the way, how did you know I still have magical talent?"
"My battle armor's intelligent system can capture anomalies in energy indices within its range, and you are the source."
Sera listened blankly, not understanding many things, only able to discern the general meaning of a few words.
Talk of things like "smart systems" and "energy indices."
Of course, these are all just nonsense from Li Lin.
The Infinite Battle Armor can read energy indices, but Sera is different.
Her magical abilities are entirely her own talent, just passively receiving information from others, unable to control it actively, so naturally there is no talk of casting spells.
"And, I have been to Shurima, witnessed the rise of the Sun City, fought alongside the god-warriors, and brought back a cursed little girl, so I know a bit about magic."
Sera's face became increasingly shocked.
Although she couldn't understand anything, it seemed quite formidable...
"The cursed little girl you mentioned, is that her?"
Sera glanced past Li Lin and looked at Kai'Sa in front of Mrs. Iyai's stall, who had just finished eating the sweet cake again, and murmured softly, "So, this skin is cursed?" A touch of bitterness surfaced in her heart. "No wonder she has two completely different voices."
"Yes, she was cursed by a very terrifying creature, so I brought her here to Piltover to seek treatment."
"You are truly kind."
Sera stared at Kai'Sa thoughtfully for a while, wondering what was on her mind.
Then, Li Lin turned around and waved to Kai'Sa in the distance, introducing the two of them.
The hunched Mrs. Iyai also came over with the last piece of sweet cake and handed it to Sera.
Seeing that they seemed to have something to discuss, she just exchanged a few greetings and then bid farewell and left.
Unconsciously, it was almost 5 o'clock.
Sera wanted to invite Li Lin to her house to meet her parents, but she didn't have the courage to bring it up.
Instead, Li Lin invited Kai'Sa and Sera to a restaurant in the southern part of the city, serving Shuriman cuisine, to treat the two of them well.
They got to know each other and talked about some family matters.
What Li Lin didn't expect was that Kai'Sa strangely got along well with Sera and quickly became friends.
Kai'Sa told Sera various legendary stories about Shurima, while Sera told Kai'Sa about the other magical world brought about by her abilities.
After eating and drinking, Li Lin escorted Sera back to the neighborhood where her audio store was located, then waved goodbye to her.
"Could you come to my house for a visit?" Just as Li Lin and Kai'Sa were about to leave, Sera mustered up the courage to stop them. "I think my parents would be happy to entertain you."
"Today's time is too rushed, and I'm not well-prepared, so it's not very convenient..."
Hearing his reply, although Sera was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Li Lin noticed the expression on her face and gently rubbed her little head.
"But after Progress Day, I'll personally visit you and chat about your sponsorship."
Sera widened her eyes, "—Eh?!"
