Abyss Watcher In The League V2 35 Ch34: Worry

Grey, Ahri, Aki, Annie, Brite, and Nidalee were sitting in the dining hall. The Abyss Watcher was telling the Silver Knight how he became a Lord of Cinder.

"So, the Abyss Watchers were already chosen, but they never told you, and since you Abyss Watchers share the same soul, you became a Lord yourself." Brite summed up.

Grey nodded "That's right."

Brite scratched his chin "Well, that explains why someone like you is a Lord of Cinder."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Grey asked feeling insulted.

"Hey, Grey, can we go see the garden?" Annie asked.

The Abyss Watcher hummed in thought before shrugging "Why not? It's been a while since I saw Zyra."

"I'd take any chance to see the glorious sun." Brite added standing up with the Abyss Watcher.

"I could use some fresh air too." Nidalee said standing up and stretching.

"I'll go." Ahri added also standing up before looking at Aki "Are you coming too?".

The Shy summoner shook her head "Sorry, but I have a match in a while."

"Oh, well, good luck." Ahri said with Aki nodding back.

With that, Grey, Ahri, Annie, Brite, and Nidalee went to the big gates at the entrance of the dining hall and left.

They walked through the hallway with the various doors on their right and The wall at their left having windows lined together until they reached the green gates of the garden.

Once they entered, they were greeted with the familiar sight of the Garden's nature covered ground.

The Abyss Watcher took a deep breath "I'm always amazed at how Zyra keeps this place so full of life."

Ahri and Nidalee also took a big breath of the fresh air. The Huntress started stretching feeling comfortable being surrounded by green life again.

"Ah, truly wonderful. Green life, lots of fresh air, and natural light where I can do what I love?" Brite said looking around.

"And what's that?" Nidalee asked feeling a little curious.

"Don't ask him." Grey quietly scolded, but Brite already started answering.

"Praising the Sun." the Silver Knight almost yelled as he spread his hands diagonally.

The others, but Grey, looked at him in confusion. While The Abyss Watcher just facepalmed "Five minutes, can you not do that for five minutes?"

"At least I can still do it." Brite replied before looking at Grey smugly "Where's your old Wolf of Farron now?" he asked wiggling his eyebrows.

Grey groaned while the others turned their looks at him "What's he talking about?" the dark-skinned huntress asked.

"Well, the Warriors of Sunlight praise the sun. I'm a watchdog of Farron, so I pray to the old Wolf of Farron. But since he's always resting in Farron Keep, I can't do that anymore." Grey explained.

"While even in a different world, I can still praise the glorious sun." he said smugly again.

Ahri put a hand on her chin "Hey Grey, why don't you pray to something else?" she said making Grey look at her with a raised eyebrow "Like a Fox." she suggested which made Nidalee give her a deadpan look.

"I will not pray to a Fox." Grey replied shaking his head.

The Fox Vastayan scowled at his tone and crossed her arms "And what's wrong with foxes?" she asked suspiciously.

Grey raised an eyebrow before realizing that his answer sounded insulting "No, that's not what I meant, I-"

"I guess you think Foxes aren't worth wors.h.i.+pping, huh?" the nine tailed Vastayan said in an accusing tone "That they're not as good as wolves?"

"Ahri, that's not what I meant." Grey tried to explain, but the angry Vastayan crossed her arms and turned her back on him making sure that one of her tails. .h.i.t his head.

"Well then, what did you mean?" she asked with her back turned.

Grey adjusted his hat after Ahri's tail hit him "We Abyss Watchers pledge ourselves to the old Wolf of Farron. That's why I don't praise the sun like most of our world. In fact, we Abyss Watchers don't even wors.h.i.+p Gwyn, and he's the first lord." he explained but Ahri just kept her back turn, so he thought of anything that would make her happy "Would you forgive me if I buy you some ice-cream?"

Despite Ahri's ears twitching in interest, which Grey noticed, she still tried to look mad "What kind of Ice-cream?" she asked with her back still turned.

Grey thought back on the times they had ice-cream and tried to think back to the time she enjoyed them the most "Chocolate sundae?"

Ahri looked at him over her shoulder "I want an entire bucket." she said as more like a demand than a request.

"Wh" the Abyss Watcher was about to protest but just sighed "Alright." he said which made the emotion-controlling woman smirk in victory.

Grey felt someone tugging their cape and saw it was Annie "Can I get ice cream too?" she asked.

Grey shrugged "Sure, why not?" he replied but then heard someone clear their throat and saw his other roommate looking at him "I guess I'm buying ice-cream for everyone then."

"What in the glorious Sun is ice-cream?" Brite asked unfamiliar with the name.

"I'll get you some later." Grey said.

"You just keep getting interesting people, don't you?" Zyra said as she appeared from the plants of her garden.

"h.e.l.lo, Zyra, I hope we're not bothering you or your children." Grey said looking at the carnivore woman.

Zyra shook her head "Not really, but I see you have a new friend." she said looking at the Silver Knight.

"Yes, but an old friend is more correct." he replied before motioning to the Warrior of Sunlight "this is Brite, and he's from my world."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, ma'am." said man greeted with a small bow.

Zyra looked at Brite before replying "Likewise." she said and looked back at the Abyss Watcher "You know the rules: don't harm my children."

"Very well." Grey replied before finding a place to sit with Ahri, Nidalee, and Brite, while Annie went looking around the garden with Silver following her.

Meanwhile, Zyra stood where she was and looked between Brite and Grey. She was focusing on their presence.

Brite felt like a normal person, or as normal as an undead can be. But that's what confused her.

Grey has a warm presence, like a gentle flame. It's like he was part of nature, and that was what Zyra noticed about him when they met.

She never felt a presence like that before, the closest thing to it was the Green Father. But she thought it had to do something with being from another world.

But now, with Brite who is from Grey's world being here, she was confused. Zyra expected all people, or undead, from Grey's world to feel like him.

She now realized that Grey was special, and that got her more interested in learning how his presence could feel like that.

But for now, the Carnivore woman just shrugged it off and left to make sure that Annie doesn't harm her children.

Time skip: (brought to you by chibi wolf Vastayan Grey and chibi normal human Ahri sitting together on a couch).

Ahri, Annie, Brite, Grey, and Nidalee were walking back to the dining hall after spending a few hours in the garden.

"And after you destroy the Nexus, your team's declared the winner." Grey finished explaining how matches work to Brite.

The Silver Knight scratched his chin "That sounds a little complicated, but it's still far more peaceful than war."

They sat in a table and it wasn't long before Aki joined, but the summoner was looking down as she sat beside Ahri.

"Hey, Aki, how did the match go?" Ahri asked.

Aki sighed "Not that good, we lost."

"It's okay. I'm sure you'll do better next time" the Vastayan said making a smile appear on her friend.

"There's always a tomorrow." Brite said cutting into the conversation "why do you think I praise the sun? Because it stands for new hope, and a new day to fight." he then looked at Grey "Unlike wolves who some people pray to."

The Abyss Watcher rolled his eyes while Aki giggled "Thanks, Brite."

"We are not doing this again." Grey said crossing his arms "The last time we had this argument, we kept yelling for five days straight."

The others were surprised that they had an argument for five days, but before anyone voices their thoughts, the Prodigal Explorer came to the table.

"Hey, everyone." Ezreal greeted as he sat down.

"h.e.l.lo, Ezreal, how have you been?" Grey asked.

"I've been doing pretty good" Ezreal answered "That Irithyll long sword we got is really amazing. I can't wait to show it to Ashe."

Brite raised an eyebrow "Wait, how do you have an Irithyll long sword?" he asked knowing only those chosen by the Pontiff are allowed to have said weapon.

"An Outrider Knight showed up a couple of weeks ago." Grey informed him "You know how most of them act, so we had to put it down."

The Silver Knight understood what the Abyss Watcher was talking about. Most Outrider Knights were like wild animals because of the gif of Sulyvahn's eyes, and there was only one person that was an exception.

"You know, the Dancer isn't going to be happy that you gave weapons of the Boreal Valley to strangers." Brite said taking a serious look.

The others were confused to who he was talking about, and Ahri was the one to ask the question "The Dancer? Who's that?" she asked looking at Grey.

"She's Pontiff Sulyvahn's second-in-command. She and I are… close" Grey said trying to explain their special relations.h.i.+p, but that didn't stop Ahri and Nidalee from frowning "speaking of which, how is she?"

"To be honest, she's been on edge lately because of your disappearance." The Silver Knight replied, "Last time I saw her, she was being stopped by three Outrider Knights from killing a priest just because he mentioned a pointy metal hat."

The Abyss Watcher chuckled "So she's okay." he said as more of a fact than a question.

"Yeah, pretty much." Brite replied.

"Hi, everyone." someone greeted and they saw Lux coming towards their table.

"Lux, what are you doing here?" Ahri asked.

"I thought that there was a meeting for n.o.ble families?" Nidalee added as the light mage sat with them.

Lux waved her hand "It was over a while ago."

Ahri raised an eyebrow "Shouldn't you be helping your family clean up?" she asked.

The light mage waved her hand "Nah, Garen said he had it covered."

"You snuck out when he turned his back, didn't you?" Ezreal deadpanned at her.

Lux just looked at him before pointing her finger "You can prove nothing."

The Explorer rolled his eyes before looking at the Silver Knight "Anyway, I was going to head to the bar for a drink, how about we go there to celebrate Brite showing up."

"I could go for a drink." Brite said.

Grey groaned knowing that both he would be wasting his time there seeing as the drinks were too weak.

He was about to tell the Warrior of Sunlight, but Ahri spoke "I'm down for a drink."

"I'll go too." Nidalee added.

"I guess it could cheer me up after that match." Aki added.

"I'm going too." Grey said before looking at the nine tailed Vastayan "I got to make sure you don't overdo it like last time." Ahri rolled her eyes, but the Abyss Watcher was being serious.

He didn't care about the teasing, he had to deal with that since they met. What he didn't want to happen was Ahri doubting herself again, saying she's a freak and all. He really hated seeing her like that.

With that, they all stood up and went towards Gragas's bar. They reached the wooden doors of the said place before going in.

It was exactly like the last time they saw it, except for a few customers being different. They all sat together at the same table.

Not long after that, and Gragas showed up "Hey, fellas, so what will it be?"

"Just ale, Gragas." Lux replied.

"And some milk." Grey added petting Silver.

The bar owner nodded before going to bring their order. Ahri turned to the young Crownguard "So, Lux, what was the meeting about?"

The light mage groaned "Urghh, the usual. n.o.bles bragging, boring business, proving honor and all that." she said with a tone that made it clear she was bored.

"Being a n.o.ble sounds hard… and arrogant." Nidalee said noting how Lux mentioned them.

"You have no idea." Lux said shaking her head "The only person who gets a break from this stuff is the Peacekeeper house." Aki tensed, but no one seemed to notice.

"The Peacekeeper?" Ahri asked not recognizing the name.

"There's this n.o.ble family called the Peacekeeper." Lux explained which made Aki tense more "They're actually as famous as mine. The head of that family is their only child, but they've never been seen. No one even knows if they are a boy or a girl. They're supposedly always away on business."

During Lux's explanation, Aki started pulling down her summoner hood, which hid her face further.

Gragas showed up with a tray that had the drinks. He sat it down and everyone took theirs.

Grey gave Silver the milk before looking at Brite "Oh, and Brite, a little warning, the drinks in this world are incredibly weak."

The Warrior of Sunlight snorted "Please, it can't be that bad." he said before taking a drink… Only to immediately spit it out "What is this? Orange juice?" he asked.

"That's exactly what I said." Grey said while the others chuckled.

Unknown location:

In a cliff pointing upwards slightly, a figure starts walking towards the edge. It was… Grey?

Grey reaches the top of the cliff. Suddenly, black flames start appearing from the darkness that is over the cliff.

A giant mutated black arm suddenly appears from the darkness and grabs the Abyss Watcher before pulling him over the cliff.

When Grey wakes up, he finds himself in a place completely covered in darkness with barely any light whatsoever. He stands up when he hears a weird thumping sound and a creature appears from the darkness.

It was walking on two, had many glowing red eyes, many antlers, and a really big left arm that was almost bigger than the rest of the body. And on it's right arm was a staff with an axe-like end.

Grey pulled out his weapons while the monster roared. It jumped towards him swinging down it's giant arm.

The Abyss Watcher rolled out of the way and used his knife to redirect himself towards the monster.

He swung his sword and knife, but the monster s.h.i.+elded itself with it's arm making sure that it wasn't damaged.

In a swift move, the monster slammed it's arm at Grey sending him upwards. Before Grey falls to the ground, the monster swung it's arm again sending Grey away with more damage.

The Abyss Watcher fell on the ground heavily wounded and unable to move, but not quite dead yet.

The monster walked towards Grey. It lifted it's giant arm ready to deliver the finis.h.i.+ng blow.

But then… It spoke "Humans… Such Vile creatures" it said in a demonic voice before bringing down it's arm.

"Noooo!" a woman yelled as she jolted up from her sleep.

The woman was skinny and tall, she was wearing a black bodysuit under a dark silver armor with gold tr.i.m.m.i.n.g that covered her chest, forearms, legs, and waist. She had a helmet with a cage visor and a wedding veil connected to it.

She appeared to be sitting under a dead tree on a cliff that looked over a lake. The tree and the cliff were both covered in snow.

The woman grabbed the side of her head and shook it "That d.a.m.n dream again." she muttered.

"Excuse me, Dancer." someone said behind her.

She looked over her shoulder and found a priest wearing white robes over black ones and had a small golden crown on his head.

"What do you want?" the Dancer asked harshly which made him tense.

He was already nervous talking to the most powerful a.s.sa.s.sin in the land, and her tone did not ease his worries "P-Pontiff Sulyvahn wants to speak with you."

The Dancer grunted before standing up. She walked past the priest while making sure to shove him to the ground.

She walked over towards the gates of a church that was surrounded by statues of praying priests.

Near the gates were two Pontiff guarding the door. Both bowed in respect as she entered.

The Dancer pa.s.sed two rows of wooden seats before reaching the middle of the church was a man was waiting for her.

He was a very tall man, wearing a black hooded robe under a white one with golden necklaces going around his neck. He had a mirror-like mask with root patterns, and on top of his head was a golden tree-like crown.

In his hands were two unique great-swords. One was golden and had rune patterns while the other was slim and was dark purple.

"You called for me, Sulyvahn?" the Dancer asked.

"Yes," the leader of the Pontiff answered as he started pacing back and forth in front of her "You're here so that we could talk about your actions lately."

"What actions?" she asked curiously.

"You know what I'm talking about." he replied not buying her act "Ever since he vanished, you've been getting agitated, easily distracted, and worst of all neglecting your duties."

The Dancer kept playing dumb "I don't know what-"

"DO YOU TAKE ME FOR A FOOL?!?" Sulyvahn yelled which made her jump "I know that you've been using those scouting missions as an excuse to look for him," he said which made her tense at being caught "and with Vordt now missing too, I can't allow that anymore."

"So what? You'll throw me out?" the Dancer asked knowing that Sulyvahn doesn't take failure easily.

But to her surprise, he shook his head "No, you are far too valuable for that, so why don't we, as they say, stop beating around the bush." he said which made her raise an eyebrow under her helmet "I want you to look for them, find them, and bring them back?"

"Who are you talking about?" she asked since Sulyvahn mentioned two people by now.

"Both" he replied "Vordt… and Grey".
