The Hero in Exile

"Lunster, are you planning to go to the orcs for a long time while you pack your things?"

Lingyu noticed that the things Lunster prepared didn't look like he would be there for just a few days, but luckily her and Moran's things were packed and left there and hadn't been moved, so there was no need to bother.

"These aren't actually mine. Although I didn't find any compatriots this time, the orcs have taken in hundreds of them. I brought these to them."

Moran, who was sitting nearby, was a little surprised. Hundreds of people? He originally thought that there were only dozens of people on a ship at most. However, this was a good consolation, but when he thought of more compatriots being toyed with by those nobles or persecuted by the church, he couldn't help but blame himself again.

Moran thought about it and said, "As the king of a country, Lingyu and I have some money now. What will they think if we go to see them without bringing anything?"

"Young Master, you are too polite. They know that you are still alive, which is the greatest gift. We all expect you to lead us back to our glory when the time comes." Lunster comforted him. He had always seen Moran's efforts and could probably guess what Moran was thinking.

"You're right, Lunster. Thank you. I feel a little tired, so I'm going to rest first." Moran planned to rest early today so that he could be more energetic to visit his people tomorrow.

When Lingyu saw Moran return to his room, hesitant and blushed as he looked at Lunster and then at the bedroom door.

"I feel pretty tired too. I'm going to sleep now. See you tomorrow."

Lingyu ran in in a panic. Although nothing had happened between her and Moran, they just chatted every night about their views on the future, but it was really a show to say it out loud.

"Things are developing very quickly, young master. Even if we don't sleep together, we already look like a newlywed couple."

Lunster thought about these past few days, when Lingyu cooked, she would ask the young master what he wanted to eat, and when the young master went out fishing, Lingyu would bring him a box lunch and send it to the door, saying, "Be careful." The young master seemed to have become a little smarter and even knew to pick a flower outside. Seeing them like this, the old man felt relieved.

"Is the food I cooked today delicious?"

Lingyu, who was lying on the side of the bed, had a blush on her face that had not yet faded. They would chat like this every night, but it always felt awkward. However, even so, the conversation between the two never stopped.

"Yeah, yeah, it's delicious." Moran also tried his best to express: "It's a little salty, but it's still delicious."

Lingyu had already decided to use less salt next time, but she was still a little worried when she thought about going to the Orcs to meet the civilians of the Demon Tribe tomorrow.

"Moran, I should stay a little further away. If you see me, it might have a bad impact."

"No, I will tell them that things are different now. Don't worry, I will make them trust you. You don't have to think too much about it. After all, it was the church that asked you to do this."

Although the two were facing back to back, Moran grabbed Lingyu's hand as he spoke. The warmth of their palms was transmitted to each other. They did not speak, just enjoying this moment of tranquility.

"Alright guys, it's time to move and signal the other guys to surround that place together."

Brunson shouted to his guards, and one of them dismounted and took out a special dwarven model gun and fired into the sky above the Lunster cabin.

The red light was extremely bright and could be seen by everyone present except the two people who were already asleep in the bedroom.

"What is that?" Lunster saw a red light outside through the glass, and many people appeared around him one after another: "It's really unlucky to be discovered at this time."

Duke Brunson had fought against the demons many times and probably guessed the limit of the demons' perception distance, so he ambushed them all around in advance to block their retreat. Signal flares also appeared in the sky around the wooden house one after another.

"Oh, here comes the signal to get ready for work."

After seeing the signal, Bushier also ran quickly towards the cabin.

Brunson called one of his men over and said, "Go and inform the other captains that they can only capture them alive and avoid attacking if possible. It's best to show that we have no hostility. Hurry up."

After receiving the order, the guards quickly ran towards other teams.

After finishing his preparations, Duke Brunson dismounted and looked at the starry sky: "Damn, how could I forget that she is a hero? If she notifies me, all my men will be finished." Brunson rubbed his mustache again: "Forget it, she doesn't look like she wants to make a big deal."
