The Hero in Exile

"The church army from Bronzebeard has begun attacking the city. The reinforcements should be arriving soon. I hope they succeed."

"The church army on Lionheart's side is ready. I think a fight is bound to happen sooner or later. But my friend Hook has already arrived so it won't be a big problem."

"Also, the Adventurer's Guild President Al sent a letter saying that he has arrived there and is helping with the garrison."

Moran and Bourne were handling these matters in the administrative hall of the royal capital. King Darien had been under mental control for several years and was now confined to bed, so he was unable to help.

So these things fell on the shoulders of Bowen and Moran.

"What about Blessing? She is the enemy we need to face, and she has the largest number and quality of troops."

Born found that the documents brought up contained the least information about the enemy they would face on the battlefield.

"They should be setting up defenses in the fortress behind the border. Their main goal is to bring the Goddess of Light to the world. The other two armies are just trying to contain us and disperse our strength."

"Yes, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We should drive Cifu and his men back to the Holy City and wait for Bronzebeard and Brunson to join forces and attack the city in one fell swoop."

"This is the only solution right now."

Moran currently has no better solution, not to mention whether Bronzebeard and Brunson can defeat the angels.

The only thing that is certain is that the demon clan and the imperial army, which have rested for a few years, can defeat the army led by Ci Fu, but Ci Fu cannot defeat the three of them combined.

The other party is not a fool and will definitely retreat. The final step of attacking the holy city is the most difficult step. It will be very difficult without the help of those unreliable allies.

We can only take one step at a time.

Now the army is an integration of the Demon Clan and the Empire, and the command is handed over to Bourne. Now all he needs to do is find Lingyu and prepare to start making trouble.

"Father-in-law, I'll go find Lingyu. Just notify us when the time comes to go."

"Go ahead. Lingyu has been too relaxed lately. We need to let her show some bravery."

……

"Wake up, Lingyu. It's already afternoon."

Now Lingyu has nothing to do, so she plays after eating and sleeps when she is tired. Her usual sloppy appearance is nothing like her former high-spirited and idol-like appearance in the hearts of the people of the empire.

We really have to listen to old father-in-law Born and wake up this sleeping hero.

Moran pulled up the quilt and yanked it.

"Ah, you're back so early, Moran."

"I...why are you not wearing any clothes!"

Nothing on.

"It's comfortable to sleep like this."

Lingyu turned over nonchalantly, raised one hand and tried to take back the quilt and continue sleeping.

"Why are you like this? Pay attention to your image."

"Oh, who else could come in without knocking except you? You are an old married couple, what don't you know?"

"We haven't even gotten married yet. No, you're getting off topic. We have something serious to discuss. Put on your clothes and talk to me properly."

pop~

Moran slapped Lingyu's defenseless little butt without any hesitation.

"I know, I know."

Lingyu groaned reluctantly, walked to the closet in a daze and started changing clothes in front of Moran.

"So what on earth do you want me to do?"

"We'll be heading out to fight the church in a few days. I hope your skills won't go to waste because of all the time you've been lying down."

The next time Moran opened his eyes, Lingyu, who was putting on clothes in front of him just now, was gone.

I hope he doesn't go back into bed while I'm not paying attention.

Moran pulled back the quilt and saw no one.

"It's really weird."

"What are you looking for there, Moran? It would be a shame if you don't use this good afternoon to improve yourself. Come on Moran, let's spar with each other and see if you are rusty or not."

Lingyu had already put on her equipment and was standing at the door, looking better than ever.

And you shouldn't be the one who is unfamiliar, Moran kept complaining in his heart but still hoped that no matter who it was, he would not get off Lingyu for the time being.

"I can't wait to take down that old boss of Vida and get back the big house and money that was promised to me."

"So this is your motivation?"

Is this the brave hero from another world? It is true that a gentleman takes revenge, and it is never too late even after ten years. It doesn’t matter as long as she can cheer up.

……

The vines trapped Zhizuan tightly, and Tongxu did not miss this opportunity and hit her lower abdomen with a hammer, sending her and the vines flying more than ten meters away.

Like a bowling ball, he knocked away the church soldiers who wanted to help.

Liv foresaw that Bronzebeard would be in danger, so after the army was ready, she used the little remaining energy of the World Tree to teleport over on a large scale.

"I never thought that it would be you who came to help me."

"What are you talking about? My father once fought alongside the first Dwarf King. Now it's just the same as before."

When Sinmaker was knocked away, Liv used the power of the World Tree to heal Bronzebeard's injuries and gave him the blessing of the World Tree.

"I used to doubt you, but it seems to be my problem. Thank you for helping us. I thank you on behalf of the dwarves."

"Now is not the time to say these things. My fellow countrymen, drive the enemy out, and leave the angels to me and Bronzebeard!"

Liv tapped the ground lightly with her staff, and the energy in the staff formed a magic shield that enveloped the three of them.
