The Hero in Exile

"Oh, I slept so comfortably. I hope I won't be late for work later." Lingyu immediately sat up from the quilt. With a dazed head, he remembered that this was no longer the original world.

After waking up, my body always feels light and floating. If I look carefully, I can clearly feel a powerful force circulating in my blood. This should be the power that the holy sword mentioned.

But then again, wasn't he with Vida just now? Remember Holy Sword said that it was the soul that entered his realm, so it could only be that Vida sent him here while he was unconscious.

"These decorations are very beautiful." Lingyu looked around the room. Although the room was not very big, the comfort of the bed and the patterns on the wall showed how expensive this place was.

Since I woke up in a different place almost every time, I wasn't surprised to be sent to the room this time.

"There's a mirror here that looks like..."

A lovely girl appeared in the mirror.

There are a few silver threads mixed in the soft white hair, and the skin is as white as snow and as smooth as a baby's.

Then his eyes slowly moved downwards, Lingyu's old face turned red, and blood started flowing from his nose. Damn, this is too exciting, wait and see if it's a bit weird to have a nosebleed from my own body? Forget it, this body is my own now, is it okay to take a look, put your hand somewhere and pinch it gently.

"Ah~" Lingyu immediately covered her mouth. Fortunately, no one heard it, otherwise she would be in big trouble. However, judging from the feel, it should be B.

"My dear hero, are you awake?"

The door of the room suddenly opened, and a girl wearing a black witch robe and yellow hair came in. Lingyu was standing in front of the mirror touching...

"My dear hero, please go ahead and do your work. I will be leaving now."

"Wait, it's not what you think. Give me something to wear."

……

"My name is Viktor Fell. You can just call me Fell, my brave lord. I'm also an imperial magician, but I'm much inferior to you." The energetic girl in front of me calls herself Fell, but I still want to complain why their names are so long?

"Well, thank you for your clothes." After Miss Phil brought her a set of clothes, she finally didn't have to be naked.

But this dress always makes girls feel embarrassed. The style of gray and blue has expensive but useless decorations on it, but it is women's clothing. This is nothing, but the only clothes Phil gave her were skirts. The thighs were exposed and the bottom was cold, which was very strange.

"You're welcome. The leader will be here soon."

"Master? Are you talking about that old man Vida?" Lingyu opened his eyes wide and a surprised expression appeared on his face.

I'm not sure if it was Vida. After all, he was the one who got himself involved in these things. I don't have any good feelings towards this man. I never thought that he was the leader.

"My lord the Brave One, please be polite when speaking to the Lord Leader. After all, he is the current leader of the church. If it weren't for the Lord Leader leading the Paladins, the demons might have already reached the empire. Although I don't have much good impression of him, he has indeed made a huge contribution in the current war between humans and demons." Phil puffed up his face and looked angry, but this made him even more adorable in Lingyu's eyes.

"Ahem~, I didn't expect the hero to wake up so soon, but it seems that things are going well." I don't know when Vida came to this room, squinting his eyes to look at Lingyu, "The hero has already made a contract with the holy sword, the power of holy light radiating from his body is really strong."

"Yes, I did make a contract with the Holy Sword. What do you want to do? And I am not worthy of the title of Lord Brave Lingyu." Lingyu looked at Vida with disdain but at the same time he was vigilant and observed Vida's every move.

"Then I'll call you Lingyu. I believe you've also learned from Phil that we're entering a period of war." Vida slowly moved his gaze to Phil, paused, and said, "Our countries have been at war with the demons for five years. In the war, our countries were all in a passive position, so we awakened the Holy Sword and found you."

"You think too highly of me. You don't want me to fight against the entire demon clan. What use can I be if you countries can't deal with them?" Although he already possessed great power, he has not yet fully mastered it. No matter how strong a person is, he will be helpless when faced with an army as vast as a tidal wave.

"Lingyu, you are right. The reason why we humans are at a disadvantage is that all countries are not united against the invasion of the demons. They are always thinking about their own interests. At this time, we need someone to break it." Vida looked at Lingyu. "In our world, we all know a prophecy. It is a prophecy from God. God once predicted that in the second war between humans and demons, a brave man would lead the human race to victory. So as long as you, Lord Lingyu, hold up the holy sword, all countries will respond."

"But this is on the premise that I help you." Lingyu never said that he would help the world out of dire straits, and he was just a worker before. Who would be willing to go to the battlefield and fight now?

"Yong...ah, no, Master Lingyu, please, I beg you, only you can do this." Phil, who had been listening for a long time, realized that Lingyu didn't want to do these things, but he still begged Lingyu to change his mind.

"Lord Lingyu, I never said that I would let you do these things in vain." Vida said this as if he had expected it.

"Oh, then tell me about it." Lingyu finally stood up from the bed when he heard it, and he became interested as soon as he saw it.

"We still have our people in your original world. We will give your family, the couple you live with, a substantial reward." On the other side, after observing for a while, it can be seen that Lingyu still cares about his family. Of course, this is only part of the exchange. Vida looked at Lingyu again, "After the war, we will give you a piece of land for you to live on, and more money than you can spend in your lifetime."

Lingyu was already moved when she heard this. Although she could not return to that world, at least by giving them some money she would repay her uncle and his family for raising her for so many years. At the same time, she would not have to worry about the rest of her life by leading the army to defeat the demons without much effort.

"Hehe, people like me are generally not tempted by money, but since you have said so much, I will accept it. Of course, the money cannot be less." He said this to save face.

"Then Lord Lingyu, even if the transaction is successful, then someone..." Vida clapped his hands and a burly knight in plate armor walked in.

"What are you going to do? Didn't I agree to it?" Lingyu leaned back in fear, not knowing why she asked this person to come over. Of course, she also forgot about the fact that she was very strong now.

"It's Paladin Archbishop Scipio Borne, the second in command of the church! Shouldn't he be on the front line on the battlefield now? Why is he here?" Phil beside him explained excitedly.

"Master Lingyu, I know you already have extraordinary strength, but you have to learn how to use it to defeat the Demon King or Demon King, so I asked Born to come back and teach you how to use your power."

"Hello, Lord Lingyu, I'm the Paladin Captain, call me Bourne, and I look forward to your guidance in the future." Bourne greeted politely.

"Wait a minute, are we going to talk about fighting the devil again? I don't want to go." Lingyu said to Vida excitedly.

"Isn't it natural for a hero to fight the devil?" Vida said mischievously. I didn't expect that such a grown-up could be so naughty.

Lingyu held her forehead and thought that she was cheated by this old guy again, but she had to fight for the sake of beauty.

"Then can I ask you one last question?" Lingyu thought for a long time but still didn't understand something.

"Please say."

"Why must the body I reincarnate into be a female?" The air suddenly became much quieter.
