The Hero in Exile

After going out, Lingyu thought Moran would put her down, but she didn't expect that Moran would just hold her and walk on the street as if nothing had happened.

"Moran, what are you doing? Put me down and I can walk by myself."

Moran ignored Lingyu and walked towards the hotel at a moderate pace, looking like he was going to carry her all the way back.

"Let me...down."

Lingyu pushed Moran's chest hard and her feet began to move around restlessly.

"Hiss, stop moving or you'll fall down."

"Hmm."

Lingyu was tossed around by Moran like a piece of cargo. After a while of shaking, she could have been freed from Moran's arms, but ended up back to where she was before she was freed.

Lingyu certainly did not give up and was not prepared to continue escaping from Moran's clutches. She couldn't just keep hugging him as he wished, as that would be too humiliating.

"Hmm?" Moran felt something was wrong. The weight had increased. Can't you just stop? "Be good, please. If you want to be exposed in the street like this, I can put you down."

"Is this... like this?" Lingyu just remembered that she couldn't wear the clothes on her body on the street. Although it was embarrassing to be hugged by him like this, it was the only way. "And thank you." Lingyu said in an almost inaudible accent.

Moran chuckled, put his head down and said in a weak voice in Lingyu's ear: "It's okay."

"Hmm!" Lingyu reacted and subconsciously covered her mouth. Then her face became hot. Although she couldn't see her current appearance, she was definitely very red.

"Pfft." He couldn't help laughing when he saw Lingyu's clumsy look, but he quickly suppressed it.

I didn't expect that I could be heard even though I spoke so softly, and... and what he just said in my ear was so embarrassing.

Thinking back, I could obviously have defeated that stinky bald guy just now. If I hadn't failed to react at that time, none of this would have happened. No, even if there is the risk of social death, I can't let this guy lead me by the nose anymore.

"Put me down."

Lingyu acted a little more serious, but at least in Moran's eyes, it was no different from before.

"I said let me go."

In an instant, Lingyu blessed herself with strength, hoping to break free unexpectedly, but she didn't expect that even with the blessing of strength, she couldn't break Moran's arms at all.

Lingyu looked at Moran with some surprise.

"Don't look at me like that. I have an instinctive aversion to the power of Holy Light. I'll be ready when you use it."

"It's impossible that they were so bad that they didn't even move."

"Don't forget that I absorbed the magic power of the Demon Wolf King before. Although I haven't recovered much, it's much better than before."

What Moran said was indeed correct. Nothing happened after the absorption, and he did not take any action. His current strength is unknown, but it is certain that he is stronger than himself.

"Hey, look at this couple on the street..."

"It's true. Young people nowadays are really open-minded."

As we walked along, Lingyu realized that we were the most conspicuous people on the entire street, but it was much better than walking naked on the street.

"I'm sorry." Moran said calmly.

"what happened?"

"I didn't remind you at the beginning. The main reason was that we also have succubi among the demons. You know me and I'm used to seeing their clothes, so I didn't remind you."

"It's nothing. Aren't you helping me now?" Lingyu spoke in a lower and lower voice.

Lingyu didn't expect that the Demon King would apologize to her. After all, when sleeping with this guy, she had to have two eyes to keep watch to prevent him from stabbing her at night. It seemed that she had thought too much.

Gradually, I realized that Lingyu could no longer withstand the gazes of the people around her. It was okay if no one noticed it at first, but later more and more people noticed that Moran was holding her, and she could hear what others said when they passed by. She really wanted to die.

Lingyu could only grab part of Moran's clothes and bury her head in it, at least to prevent others from seeing her face.

Looking at the girl burying herself deeply in his chest like an ostrich, he felt an indescribable feeling, but at least the feeling was not unpleasant, and he even enjoyed it a little.

They returned to the hotel entrance near sunset. Since Lingyu had been maintaining this posture without changing, she didn't realize that she had arrived at the hotel.

Ding ding ding—the hotel doorbell rang crisply.

"Welcome back, do you need dinner?" Seeing Moran coming back, the innkeeper enthusiastically wanted to prepare dinner.

"Shh!" Moran mouthed.

The innkeepers returned to their posts without saying a word.

Moran slowed down again when going up the stairs. He could have come back faster, but he still chose to walk back slowly. Perhaps he didn't know why he did that.
