The Hero in Exile

After a busy morning, I finally finished writing all the documents that needed to be signed and submitted all the documents that needed to be submitted. After running all the way, I can only say that it is really troublesome, whether it is this world or that world.

Moreover, there are always people coming up to chat with him on the road. In other countries, others would think that Moran and he were nobles from some place and would not dare to approach him easily. But what is most lacking here is nobles. Fortunately, Moran would always drive those people away.

Maybe it was because their attitude was too bad, and after a while you could see a group of people whispering.

It has gone from "a girl who is plain but very good-looking" to "there is a weird man next to that good-looking girl who is not to be messed with."

"I'm so tired. Let's go have a meal first and we can talk about the rest in the afternoon."

"Okay, but I wonder if the food in the academy full of nobles can compare to the food in my Demon King's Castle."

There weren't many people in the cafeteria when Lingyu walked in. Maybe the seniors here hadn't finished their classes yet. Lingyu just found a seat and sat down.

Even a brave man would feel tired. Looking at Moran, it can be said that he did not show any sign of tiredness at all. He was still looking around.

Wait, he isn't looking at women or something, right? Thinking of this, Lingyu became alert again and looked in the direction of his gaze. It seemed that he was looking at other people's mounts, and there were two people trying to see how far their water magic could shoot.

Fortunately, although he is not very friendly to other races, I feel safe if he is my boyfriend. At least I don’t have to worry about him cheating on me.

"I'm hungry, please help me buy a meal. I'll just do the same as you, thank you husband."

After confirming the relationship, Lingyu became much thicker-skinned. At least she could say such words now. So she let herself enjoy the service from her boyfriend.

"Still don't like spicy food?"

“I don’t eat spicy food.”

A year's journey has made Moran familiar with the girl's eating habits. She can't eat spicy food, and will eat what comes from the road instead of what comes from the water. She likes sweet drinks.

Moran, who had just stood up, suddenly discovered a serious problem.

"What's wrong with you?" Moran looked at him with some resentment as he had not set off yet.

Moran felt his whole body and spread his hands, "I don't have any money."

At this moment, Lingyu recalled that the last time he gave money to Moran was in the noodle shop in the Dwarf Country. After all, he had to do everything by himself along the way, and he might have almost forgotten that he had no money at all.

Lingyu, who was not sure about the prices here, also took out two shining gold coins. Although these were only two out of hundreds of coins, they were unexpected wealth for Moran.

The demon king himself finally has money.

"Remember to tell me roughly the price of the meal, and remember to take back the remaining money."

Well, no money again.

After looking at the menu, I found that the prices were not much different from those outside, just a few silver coins. The only expensive thing was the dragon meat meal, which cost 50 silver coins.

Could it be that the guy has sold all the dragon meat here?

Looking at the gold coins in my hand, a plan came to my mind.

"Come back, let me see what's starving."

"It's just a regular monster meal, and it cost a gold coin in total."

As he said that, he handed a gold coin in his hand to Lingyu.

Lingyu looked at the gold coin with some confusion. After all, it was understandable that it was a bit expensive for a magic academy.

"Forget it, just take it. After all, there are many places to spend money in school, and we definitely can't live together. OK, I'll give you 10 gold coins. Just tell me if you have any special expenses."

As he said that, Lingyu took out another 9 gold coins and gave them to Moran.

Moran's eyes were a little dull as he looked at the gold coins piled in front of him, but he quickly returned to his previous state. He swallowed the meal mixed with saliva and silently put the gold coins into his pocket.

Now Moran is rich again.

"Hey, are you a gigolo? You want women to pay for meals, beautiful lady, is there any chance for you to do me a favor and have dinner with me?"

A noble man spoke to her in a self-proclaimed cool manner, and mentioned the family seal printed on his collar.

Lingyu took a quick glance and it seemed to be from the Lionheart Kingdom. As for which family he was from, she had no idea. She had never seen this emblem during the war. Judging from his temperament, he should be a minor noble.

Moran just glanced at it without bothering to pay attention. After all, he was in a good mood because of the money he had just received and he couldn't let S13 ruin his good mood. Although he didn't like humans, they were nobles and well-educated after all, so they didn't dare to say a few words when they saw him. This kind of person was just being arrogant at home for too long and didn't know how high the world was.

Seeing that neither of the two men paid any attention to him, the angry man turned his attention to Moran.

"Can't you see I'm talking to this lady? Don't you know that my father is the prosecutor of Lionheart Country?"

Moran silently placed the orc king Hook's token and Bronzebeard's letter of introduction on the table, then stood up and looked at him as a superior. Although Moran told him it was only ten centimeters, the man felt like an ant facing a tiger.

"Get to know these things."

The man nodded woodenly.

"I heard that Brunson has recently tried to reunite the tribe, right? He needs some help from the dwarves and orcs. I happen to be familiar with both sides, and you don't want our friendship to be affected by such a small matter. I'm in a good mood today, so get out of here."

"I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you. I'll get out of here right away."

The man squatted silently and then turned 360 degrees and walked out the door.

"I didn't expect you just threatened him."

"It's just that it's not good to make too much trouble here. If it was in the Demon King's Castle, I would have been chopped into stuffing and fed to the fish. But this place is close to the church after all, and I can sense that there is someone whose strength is slightly higher than my current level."

"Yeah, let's just live an honest life."

Lingyu also noticed that there was a powerful wizard at the top of the academy. She didn't know how good he was in close combat, but at his peak, she might not be able to defeat that guy just based on her magic power.

"Lingyu, are you still alive?"

A familiar voice sounded in my ears.
