The Hero in Exile

"So you followed along?"

"Well, I begged Lingyu to let me come. I hope it won't disturb your world of two."

Moran looked at Lingyu beside him with a headache, and Lingyu just smiled helplessly.

He had already prepared everything and had the carriage ready to meet outside the school grounds, but he was not surprised when he saw the two girls coming out together.

Thinking that they were once adventuring partners and had a good relationship, it was nothing for them to come out to see each other off, but why did they have to go out together? However, considering that Lingyu agreed, Moran didn't say anything.

"The Brave Team sets sail again!"

Phil, who was sitting in the carriage, seemed particularly excited. He hugged Lingyu and told her that she was feeling suffocated being locked up in school these days. She didn't have many friends and often dreamed of memories of traveling when she slept.

Especially every time I woke up from a dream, I realized that everything was an illusion. I sobbed silently in my bed when I thought about my only close friend getting into an accident.

Lingyu also patted Phil's back gently like a caring older sister and comforted him.

"Don't be sad, Phil. I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry."

"You are really a fool for not telling me that Lingyu is in trouble. Do you still have me as your good friend?"

Lingyu had already told Phil the whole story. It was all a conspiracy of the church. She was not being unreasonable, she just wanted to vent her emotions.

Phil cried in Lingyu's arms until he got tired. His breathing gradually became steady and he fell asleep on Lingyu's chest.

Lingyu was also very considerate and gave Phil a lap pillow.

Lingyu also knew why Phil cared about her so much, and she might really be her only friend.

Phil once told Lingyu about his past.

Phil was born in a village that was not poor. Phil showed special interest in magic books since she was a child. Her family also noticed this and used their limited savings to send her to a small magic school.

When testing his talent, he showed an unparalleled affinity for magic, and the news spread across the country like wildfire.

Eventually, he was taken to the academy by Principal Kaiden to become his personal disciple. His family knew that Phil had talent and there was no stopping him, as some people were not born to be here.

Before being taken to the academy, Phil's name had already spread here, and everyone was talking about this child who was less than ten years old.

"Someone has appeared who can inherit the compassion of Grand Mage Caden."

"Another genius after the First War."

The genius of the previous generation was the great magician who fought against the devil together with the brave.

No one dared to approach Phil because of these names, and even his blood relatives had no news after sending letters for several years.

Until the brave Lingyu appeared.

After noticing that there was finally no movement behind him, Moran turned around and glanced. It would have been better if he hadn't looked, because when he did, he saw that Phil had fallen asleep on his wife.

"Just fall asleep after crying. You are so old and still sleeping on someone else. You are really a brat."

In just a moment, Lingyu sensed the sourness in Moran's words. Phil is a girl, so how could he be jealous of her?

"Then I wonder who likes to hold me in his arms when he sleeps."

Lingyu said this without blushing or feeling nervous, because Phil was asleep and there was no one else here.

"Yes, if it weren't for the fact that someone sleeps so well, she would either fall off the bed or kick her husband off the bed."

After hearing this, Lingyu's face flushed and she forgot about this matter.

"Honey, I don't remember that I was married." Lingyu, who was at a disadvantage, was still unforgiving in her words.

"You're going to get married in the future, right? I won't force you if you don't want to."

"How dare you? You have kissed me and you dare not take responsibility? I will castrate you with my holy sword."

"Of course I am responsible, of course I am responsible, I will follow my wife's arrangements in everything."

"Humph!"

How could Lingyu not know that she had been tricked by Moran's words? However, she felt much better after hearing the word "wife". However, she still had to pretend to be very angry for the moment.

Mulan also pretended to feel that Lingyu was angry, and said a few words that Lingyu would like to hear, asking for forgiveness, but the corners of his mouth that were raised never went down.

"I'll forgive you this time."

"Thank you, my wife!"

At this time, Phil's palms were full of sweat, and he had woken up while the two were chatting.

She felt that she should not be in the car now, but under the car, or had they already realized that she had woken up, and this was part of their play?

(Don't hold out too much hope for an occasional comeback.)
