I am afraid that Liszt himself did not expect that this Ionian war against Noxus would last for seven years.
As Irelia said, the counterattack that broke out in Presidian, that is, the “Battle of Navoli’s Stand Up”, was indeed only the beginning.
After this, the brutal tug-of-war began, and the war spread in the land south of Presidian, and many people were sacrificed every day.
During this period, a lot of things happened, and there were a lot of amazing heroes.
The Wuji Sword Master Yi led the Wuji Sword Sect into battle, and Noxus was terrified by his excellent sword skills.
But soon, Noxus carried out a frantic revenge. They found the village where the Wuji Sword Sect was located and killed everyone there.
When Master Yi rushed back to Wuji Village, it was too late. He could only look at the corpses of his relatives and friends, and the ruins of the burned-out village, with infinite grief.
After that, guilt pulled Master Yi out of the war—if it wasn’t for him, his family, teachers, friends wouldn’t have ended up like this.
But it is precisely because of the atrocities of Noxus that more and more Ionians have awakened.
They finally realized that this is not a game where you won’t be killed if you don’t resist, this is a life-and-death war!
Basically everything Irelia said that night was right.
The national awakening that the Presidian should have brought was five years late. During these five years, Ionia paid countless blood and sacrifices.

National awakening. This is a light-hearted, yet extremely heavy word.
What is national awakening?
The people of a country don’t care who is ruling or which emperor is above, they just want to live their lives in peace.
The war is coming, the invaders are coming, they are not thinking about resistance, but praying for the war to end soon, so that the stable days of the past can continue.
As for who can win this war, what’s the point? Could it be that if the country name is changed, the ruler will not let us eat?
Before the national awakening, the vast majority of people thought so. The country is the ruler, it has nothing to do with them.
The national awakening means that the people finally realize that they are a nation, and this nation is the country.
This nation, this country, is not allowed to be invaded by anyone. When the invaders come, they will become the enemy of the whole people!
This is the national awakening!
In the fifth year of the war, Noxus hired Singed, an alchemist in Zaun, from Singed to obtain a terrible chemical potion.
The chemicals created by alchemy are poured over the lands of Ionia, and the flames of alchemy scorch all creatures it touches, soldiers, humans, and even civilians.
Ionia’s healers are helpless against the damage this alchemical flame can inflict.
In the end, under the scorching flames of alchemy, the whole of Ionia was angry. Except for the sect of equilibrium, almost all Ionias participated in this war!
Until this time, Ionia finally completed this precious national awakening!
Twilight Eyeshen’s classmate, the Lord of Shadow Stream, bloodbathed the Equilibrium Sect. On the ruins of the Equilibrium Sect, the Shadow Stream Sect was established and officially joined the war.
Blind monk Li Qing, a young and frivolous man, was expelled from the monastery for delusional control of the spirit of the dragon. But in the battle to protect the monastery, he desperately used the spirit of the dragon, destroying all the enemies, but was also burned to the point of blindness.
The angry, dangerous, and unpredictable dragon spirit finally recognized Li Qing and this young man who had become humble and brave.
Since then, the blind monk Li Qing has frequently appeared on the front lines, fighting for Ionia.
Yasuo, who has been wronged for several years, is finally reconciled. It was not him who killed Master Soma, but a sergeant-major from Noxus—a woman named Raven.
Raven was originally an enemy of Ionia, but abandoned by Noxus during the war, she and her army became decoys, burning with Ionia’s army in alchemical flames.
Her faith crumbled at that time, and she severed her bond with Noxus with the runed greatsword, seeking impossible redemption in the lands of Ionia.
That night, the night that Master Soma was killed, Ruiwen and her rune greatsword lost control, which caused the tragedy.
Since then, Raven has become the Banished Blade, abandoning Noxus completely and fighting for Ionia.
You may not believe it, but Liszt has seen all these heroes.
Over the years, the Dark Militia has developed extremely rapidly, and they have always been able to complete one arduous task after another, and… unscathed.
No one knows exactly how they did it, but after so many brutal battles, not a single core member of the Dark Militia was ever killed.
In this way, the Dark Militia rose like a comet and quickly gained a high status, once becoming the undead legend of Ionia.
Liszt, as the leader of the dark militia, also successfully entered the parliament and became a pivotal giant.
The original spiritual leader of Ionia, Soraka, the son of the stars, lived in seclusion on Mount Targon. Since then, Liszt seems to have the momentum to replace her as the new spiritual leader.
In addition, in the second year of the Battle of the Rise, Liszt and Crimson married, and the Crimson Militia was officially incorporated into the Dark Militia.
This is to be expected. The two young people have been together for nearly a year, eating together and sleeping together. It is incredible that nothing happens.
On the wedding night, Liszt finally understood what a “virgin” was and what was considered a “touched woman”.
In the third year after the Battle of Standing, Crimson gave birth to a pair of twins for Liszt. Liszt named the boy Li Ou and the girl Li Ya. The second and fourth words of Ionia, respectively.
Crimson no longer participated in the war, no longer went into battle in person to rush to kill, but An Xin Xiang husband and son, became a particularly virtuous wife.
The legend of Liszt continues. Everyone knows that there is an undead god of war in Ionia. He is victorious in every battle, and where he is there, there is victory.
He learned a lot from the heroes of Ionia. Magic, combat skills and even technology, he can integrate and apply them in war.
He mastered magic very quickly, and the teacher of the monastery told him that Liszt was the most gifted magician he had ever seen.
Liszt made great achievements in battle, and the people of Ionia gave him the title: “Indestructible Mage.”
Of course, Liszt preferred the title of “Dark Lord”, but since it was bestowed upon him by the people, he accepted it safely.
Time flies, Liszt also grows rapidly, his fighter skills are getting more and more skilled, his magic is getting stronger and stronger, and his knowledge is getting more and more.
In the end, in the decisive battle of Bard’s Mountain, he led the dark militia to attack thousands of miles around, smashing the defense of the Noxus Legion from an incredible angle, and capturing the Noxus commander-in-chief – Du General Gull.
Dukur had a deep blood feud with Ionia and also with Irelia – it was he who killed Irelia’s family, the Zan family, and he ordered someone to smash the Zan family’s family crest.
Irelia used fragments of the family crest, those sharp blades, to execute Dukur in the central square of Presidian.
At this point, Noxus was unable to fight anymore, they chose to withdraw, and this war finally ended with the victory of Ionia!
On the day Liszt returned to Presidian, countless people greeted him on the street. The huge and brilliant Precidian, except for the central street, was blocked.
When they saw Liszt appear, everyone waved their hands and shouted his name loudly.
“Liszt! Liszt! Liszt!”
That is the land of Ionia, cheers!
