Mangekyō!
Didn’t awaken.
Sad~
“What’s going on?”
Naruto Luo Huan blinked her blood-teared eyes in utter disbelief.
She was certain her eyes had evolved into the Mangekyō, so why did she feel pain for so long without any reaction?
Even after a long time sensing, Naruto Luo Huan still couldn’t understand.
“No idea, maybe our states just don’t change here?”
Dual City Luo Huan pointed at the bass she had stomped on, yet which remained completely undamaged, and spoke.
“See, the blood on your face only looks like it’s flowing.”
Dual City Luo Huan reached out to wipe the blood tears of Naruto Luo Huan. She felt the stickiness, but the blood vanished the next moment.
“Click. Guess we can only find out the effect after we get out.”
Naruto Luo Huan smacked her lips.
And thinking she could evolve the Sharingan just by relying on her other self’s memories, she felt a bit sad about her sacrificed parents.
If it had happened sooner, she wouldn’t have needed to become an orphan.
So tragic.
“But it’s really something you managed to survive in that place.”
Solo Luo Huan commented sarcastically.
After all, the Naruto world was really abstract.
A village like Konoha, which controlled power, had its finances governed by a bunch of powerless feudal lords.
And in power were the old relic Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the number one scapegoat in all heavens, Danzo.
Life there was spent under death battles, assassinations, and brainwashing through the Will of Fire.
Even Naruto Luo Huan had committed her first kill at the age of five.
That’s just absurd.
“Isn’t it almost time? That brainless cold-blooded weasel is about to team up with Kamui Crybaby to massacre the clan, right? Don’t die!”
Dual City Luo Huan said excitedly,
“I still want to activate Susanoo!”
“Yeah, I won’t. With my power, the ninja world will be mine from now on!”
Through Solo Luo Huan’s memories, Naruto Luo Huan knew that everyone’s powers would stack! Once she returned and added Mangekyō on top, she’d be terrifyingly strong!
“?”
Dual City Luo Huan noticed white mist beginning to rise from her body.
“Looks like I’m going back. Time to face that damn toxic gas in Zaun again. Farewell, everyone. Hope next time I can cling to an even thicker thigh!”
Dual City Luo Huan forced a smile and closed her eyes.
“Janna!”
...
Dual City World.
A hidden room in the underground pipelines of Zaun.
The air, filled with an acrid, nose-stinging stench, roared.
On the iron bed, the gaunt Silco had his left eye wide open.
His hooked-nose left face was full of scars, and with a black sclera and red pupil in that sinister left eye, he looked like a demon from hell.
Silco clutched his left eye uncomfortably.
That was the eye his brother Vander had ruined.
“Healing really well. An unexpected harvest.”
Corin Reveck clicked his tongue in amazement at the completely uncomplaining Silco, continuously recording the results of this round of the drug.
Healing an eye damaged by acidic reagents—major progress.
As for the horrifying appearance?
What did it matter? As long as the desired effect was achieved, turning into a monster was no issue.
Meanwhile, on the chair nearby, Luo Huan suddenly opened her eyes.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
The supposedly purified air still choked her into constant coughing.
At the same time, the constitution overlaying her was violently rejecting the internal toxins.
She immediately vomited.
Yue~
Then she snapped her fingers, and a lick of blue flame burned her rainbow entirely away.
Drawn by the sound, Corin Reveck and Silco stood frozen.
In that dazzling blue light, Silco suddenly asked,
“Doctor, does this drug have hallucinogenic effects too? Why does it look like my niece grew cat ears?”
“That’s not a hallucination. Your niece really did grow cat ears, and she also released blue flames.”
Colin Corin Reveck licked his slightly dry lips and flatly denied it.
This was magic.
That thought arose in both their minds.
But none of it was very clear.
After all, although Piltover and Zaun were the trade center and most technologically advanced regions of Runeterra, because the city's founder, 985 Poppy, had witnessed the horrors of the Rune Wars, practically no magic could be found in the city.
Silco, as the leader of Zaun, had some minor understanding through the port, while Corin Reveck had only read about it in books.
They both had only a superficial grasp.
“Oh ho? I actually grew cat ears and a tail?”
But Luo Huan didn’t have the time to bother with the two of them and curiously touched her new ears.
Soft, fluffy, and very nice to the touch.
Her nine cat tails were unconsciously entangled, also soft to the touch.
At the same time, she sensed a new energy within her.
“Did I just turn into a Vastaya? Same race as Sett?”
After checking her memories and confirming that the energy within her wasn’t the Qi from Under One Person, Luo Huan tilted her head.
She quickly guessed what she had become.
Magical power from Runeterra.
Which meant she was now something like a little witch?
“Then what did the Reverse Life Triple turn into?”
Luo Huan tried to sense it and attempted to activate it based on her memories.
But as soon as the thought surfaced, the magic in her body was suddenly drained violently by something unknown.
It nearly depleted in an instant.
Then her golden hair began to lose color, and the distinct dark skin tone of Zaun quickly faded.
Soon, her whole body entered the Reverse Life state!
“Crap!”
The next moment, Luo Huan collapsed to the ground from magic exhaustion.
The colors on her body quickly reverted to their original state.
Silco, seeing Luo Huan lying on the ground, turned and stared at Colin Corin Reveck.
He flipped over, walked to Luo Huan’s side, and lifted her with one hand.
Then turned around, ready to leave.
“Wait!”
Corin Reveck’s eyes burned as he reached out, trying to stop Silco.
A scalpel was suddenly pointed at his face.
It was Silco—he had grabbed it in the moment he turned.
Even though the man in front of him was Zaun’s best doctor and alchemist, to protect his niece, who had just undergone something unknown, Silco still chose to stand his ground.
Just like how he had once stood up to fight for Zaun's people to gain dignity.
In Corin Reveck’s hand was a vial, flickering with a purple glow.
For a moment, the two clashed in a silent standoff.
“Cough, cough, Mr. Corin Reveck, you don’t want your daughter to stay dead, do you?”
Luo Huan, pale-faced, could feel Silco’s trembling.
She coughed twice, then lifted the corners of her mouth and spoke.
Corin Reveck’s greedy gaze instantly became clear.
“Child, what do you mean?”
His voice trembled slightly.
But he quietly tucked the vial back into his belt pouch, turned, and wound up the music box nearby.
Completely unfazed by Silco still pointing a knife at him.
