"I still don't understand, but it seems like you're not here to kill me. That's a good thing for me."
Li Ke sighed and sat on a snow-covered rock, looking at the endless snowfield.
"So, you're still going to kick me out tomorrow, right?"
He asked with a smile that didn't look like a smile. Sejuani nodded seriously. She didn't look like she was joking at all.
"If you can't join my hunting party tomorrow, of course. Because no tribe will take in someone who can't bring benefits to the tribe. "
"Alright, it seems like I have a hard life … Oh, by the way, if I accidentally kill one of those animals that your tribe raises, what will you do to me?"
He was talking about those animals that looked like yaks but weren't yaks. Because he didn't know what they were called, he could only use 'those animals' instead. But what he didn't expect was that Sejuani's face became even more serious.
"If you kill any Enyuk without permission, then I will chop your head off and use your skull as a bowl."
She didn't look like she was joking at all, and from her cold tone, she seemed to be angry.
"Don't be angry, I'm just joking."
Li Ke sighed, knowing that it was best to give up on the idea of absorbing the life force of these animals. After all, he didn't have the confidence to win against two 'heroes'.
Especially when they knew how to use 'skills'.
"Then, why did you ask me to come out? You can't just ask about these things right? "
He was curious. After all, Sejuani called him out for something more important. But from the looks of it, there were more things that she didn't say.
Sejuani's face showed some hesitation, but after hesitating for a while, she still asked Li Ke.
"You, are you the Ice People?"
She seemed to have used a lot of determination to ask this question, but it made Li Ke even more confused. After all, Oudir asked him a similar question yesterday. And after he denied it, he looked a little disappointed.
"No, I'm from the Celestial Empire, but I was caught by the Noxus people, so I'm not the Ice People you said, and I'm not from Freldrod."
Sejuani heard Li Ke's answer and let out a sigh of relief, but from her expression, she was still a little disappointed.
"Is that so … Then it's fine, warm-blooded. You can do whatever you want, but remember to return to the camp at sunset, or no one will prepare food for you."
'So you only eat two meals a day?'
This question popped up in Li Ke's mind at an inappropriate time, but fortunately, he didn't ask. Instead, he asked about another thing that he was more curious about.
"Then can you tell me what's the Ice People? And if I'm an Ice descendant, what will you do? "
Sejuani seemed a little reluctant to answer this question, but after a strange silence, she still answered Li Ke's question.
"Ice People are people who are born strong and can use ice weapons. As for what I would do if you're an Ice People? "
She paused for a moment, and her face was probably a little red, but Li Ke wasn't very sure.
"I might make you my blood ally after you join my tribe, and one of the sworn fathers of my future children. After all … After all, warriors who can fight like you, even among the Ice People, are rare. So if you're an Ice People, the things between us can be passed down as stories and poems. "
Sworn father? Sworn father? It sounded the same as Godfather and Godfather.
Li Ke thought he understood, but he didn't really understand Freldrod's vocabulary, so he didn't understand that Sworn Father meant husband in Freldrod, and 'one of the sworn fathers' meant that Sejuani would find more husbands to protect her children.
Yes, as the Battle Mother, she could have many husbands, and the children she gave birth to would be taught and protected by these husbands as their own children.
After all, they couldn't be sure if the children born by the Battle Mother were their own children. In a matriarchal society like Freldrod, this kind of marriage system would allow the Battle Mother's descendants to receive the most perfect education and protection. Even if the Battle Mother's chosen successor wasn't the Sworn Father's favorite child, it wouldn't cause the tribe to fall into a power struggle and fall apart.
"It's totally possible. If I can live until then, I'll be very happy."
Li Ke didn't think it was that important. After all, being the godfather of a 'hero' child sounded very interesting.
As for Sejuani's praise of his fighting ability, he didn't really care. After all, he didn't want to experience that kind of battle where he was forced into a disadvantageous position again.
Sejuani didn't know that Li Ke didn't understand the meaning of Sworn Father, so she couldn't help but look at Li Ke a few more times.
"You agreed very quickly. Looks like you don't hate me. But unfortunately, you're not an Ice People. "
Her eyes were filled with regret. After all, in order to have a stronger next generation, the Battle Mother would normally find a man with the same Ice Bloodline as her Sworn Father, and they would only stop giving birth after giving birth to one or two daughters. For her, she couldn't accept the fact that her daughter's Ice Bloodline was weaker than hers. So even though Li Ke met the basic requirements to become a Sworn Father, she could only regretfully give up on the idea.
As for love, feelings, and so on …
In a land where just surviving was already exhausting, these things were too extravagant. It was so extravagant that she, who shouldered the prosperity of the tribe, couldn't even think about it.
"Ha, I don't think I'm weaker than the Ice Descendant or the Ice Bloodline."
Li Ke laughed and then threw this matter to the back of his mind. After all, she had clearly rejected him, so he didn't need to rush to be a Sworn Father. And he was serious when he said that he wasn't weaker than the Ice People. Because in the game, it could be seen that in the land of Valoran, there was no lack of people who didn't have a bloodline but became strong. And he, who had a strange power, would definitely become strong.
Moreover, even in his original world, the saying, "Nobles, generals, and officials all have the guts," was one of his favorite sayings. Although … this phrase might be a bit inappropriate in this magical world.
So from the bottom of his heart, he didn't think he was weaker than the Ice People.
"Oh? That's right, you're not weaker than some Ice People now … How about this, when you prove that you're stronger than me, then I'll let you be the Sworn Father of my child. How about that? "
Sejuani recalled Li Ke's battle and felt that Li Ke was telling the truth when he said that he wasn't weaker than the Ice People. So, she put forward another condition.
"It sounds interesting, then I'll agree to it. It's also a goal for my future life."
Li Ke smiled and easily agreed to Sejuani. After all, he didn't have a goal after he was free. It was interesting to set a goal to be stronger than the heroes in the game. But he seemed to think of something and asked Sejuani.
"I've promised to be the Sworn Father of your child. You're not going to drive me away tomorrow, right?"
Sejuani looked at him with a smile and then nodded seriously.
"Of course."
How could a person who couldn't even survive be worthy of her bed?
