The Hero in Exile

"Is this the outsider who destroyed the demon wolf?"

"Look at their skinny legs and arms. They look like they're going to die."

A large group of people gathered at the entrance of the village, discussing the latest news received yesterday. The person standing in front of the villagers was naturally the village chief.

"Then I hope you two can come back with good news."

"I definitely will." Lingyu said.

"Just send it here." Moran said impatiently.

No one knew who spread the news, but overnight the news that Moran and Lingyu were going to defeat the Demon Wolf King spread throughout the village, and naturally everyone came to take a look out of curiosity.

Moran held his forehead and felt a little uncomfortable. He had not communicated with others much since he was a child and might have a little social anxiety. Usually, he could only pretend to be tall, cold and difficult to approach to keep a distance from others.

"Are you okay, Moran?" Lingyu noticed Moran's abnormality.

"It's okay. You don't need to worry about it." Moran said weakly.

"Let's go quickly. I...I don't want to stay any longer." Moran turned his head away, not wanting Lingyu to see his embarrassment.

Moran took a deep breath to ease his current condition and prepared to turn around and leave.

"Then we'll leave first, Village Chief." Lingyu said goodbye in a hurry.

"Well, it's time for everyone to go home."

The village chief waved his walking stick and the crowd began to disperse. They returned to their posts and started a busy day without any more changes. After all, not many people would believe that two people killed the Demon Wolf King. More people would believe that two skeletons appeared in the forest.

In the morning, the rising sun shines on every stone and leaf outside Honglin Village.

There were two figures on the dirt road, walking one in front and one behind.

"I suddenly discovered a problem after walking for so long."

"What's wrong?" Moran responded.

"Do you know where the Demon Wolf King is? We have been walking for so long, don't tell me you don't know where he is."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Moran looked at Lingyu in silence, with an expression on his face that seemed like he had never thought about it.

You really haven't thought about feelings. Lingyu doesn't want to say anything now and is almost kneeling down to beg him not to cheat her. I've already walked for most of the morning and he told me that I was just walking around aimlessly.

Lingyu half-squatted and drew circles on the ground, thinking to herself, "If this is true, he will carry me back on his back."

"Hahaha" Moran suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Lingyu raised her head in confusion.

"I was just teasing you and you took it seriously? You're so cute." Moran relaxed his hands.

"cute?!"

Lingyu's face gradually became flushed.

In church, people wouldn't speak so bluntly because of their status, but this guy just said it so easily.

"Don't call me cute."

"Is there a problem?"

"Have you forgotten what I said before?"

Moran thought about it and it seemed that there had been some mention that she had traveled from another world and was... a man.

Moran's brain was working rapidly, trying to figure out how to change the subject, otherwise he would be labeled a gay.

"Well, look, the moon is so round tonight." Moran felt like dying when he said this.

Lingyu's expression suddenly faded back. After a moment of silence, he said, "Let's talk about the Demon Wolf King."

Lingyu sighed inwardly and wondered what she was expecting just now.

"Yes, that's right. I can sense creatures or objects with demonic energy around me."

"There is such a GPS navigation system?" Lingyu was a little surprised.

"What the hell is this? What is GPS?" Moran showed a puzzled expression.

"Oh don't worry about it, it's ours."

Lingyu quickly shut up, almost forgetting that this was a different world. If this pervert became interested in her world, who knows, he might find a way to invade it.

Moran didn't ask any more questions and continued, "It may be because of my physical condition. Anyway, I can sense this kind of thing. The demonic energy emitted by the Demon Wolf King will naturally be stronger, so I can detect it more easily."

"Where is the Demon Wolf King now?"

Moran raised his hand and pointed to a distant place.

"It's not too far away, but there's more than one of them. There are many weak demonic spirits nearby, so they must be out hunting."

Lingyu looked in the direction of Moran and groaned inwardly. It seemed that there was still a long way to go.

A word suddenly came to my mind.

cute.

Why the hell? This word comes to my mind honestly. No, I have to calm down. I am a man, so this should be the case, right?

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. A few strands of his hair popped out like a cat with its fur standing on end. Of course Moran noticed it, but his instinct told him not to ask.

"How can a demon king praise a hero for being cute?" Lingyu muttered to herself after she had lost her temper.

Moran also heard Lingyu's mumbling, and remembered the moment of absent-mindedness just now. It didn't feel like himself. Why did he say that?
