The knights probably didn't expect that Lin An and Aris would suddenly turn south, probably thinking that they would go straight to the Orlando Heights in the west.

Since the two went south, they did not find any knights chasing up behind them.

This made the journey much calmer.

The town is very quiet. This is a remote town, far away from the metropolis, and also far away from the battlefield.

It was dusk when the two arrived. The golden sunset slanted on the street and the houses on one side.

The air is dry and warm, and fine dust can be seen dancing in the sun.

The world is very beautiful and mostly quiet.

Aris led Lin An into the small town with ease, bypassing an alley.He seems to be very familiar with everything here, and hardly needs to stop to recognize the way or identify the direction.

Aris was sullen along the way, and Lin An didn't answer a word when he spoke.

In the past, although he didn't like to talk, he was relatively not so dull.

The two turned a small road, and Aris stopped suddenly.

In front was a row of houses, all empty.The door was ajar, and a thick layer of dust fell on it.

Aris was slightly taken aback, and stepped forward to push open a door.

Dust hit his face, and Aris walked in first.

The house is two stories high, with wooden stairs at night and small carved railings.There are still unfinished meals on the table, and after too long time, it is covered with green mold.

There are many large and small pits on the light-colored oak floor, with charred edges, as if burned by fire.

There was a silver ring on the floor, with a little blood on it.

Aris picked up the ring, wiped it off with the corner of his clothes, and put it on his ring finger.

Then go upstairs.

There is only one room upstairs, and on the terrace extending out, roses grow very lushly, the branches and leaves are stretched, and thorny vines climb everywhere, all the way into the hall.

Aris stood on the terrace, looking into the distance, as if thinking about something.

Lin An guessed something and asked, "Have you lived here before?"

Aris avoided answering: "Let's go tomorrow morning."

Aris didn't want to say anything, and Lin An didn't ask too much.

In fact, Lin An more or less guessed that this was probably the home of Aris in the past.

When the war started, almost all the orcs and their spouses who had no time to escape back to Orlando Heights were killed.This small town is quite far from the highlands, and Lin An really doesn't think his relatives have a chance of surviving.

Lin An comforted: "Don't be too sad."

Aris looked up at him.

Lin An said: "Let's go have dinner first."

Aris did not refute, but nodded slightly.

The sun went down and the sky turned dark.

Lights were lit everywhere, and when the two came back from dinner, the house was pitch black.Aris lit the lamp, and there were shadows in the room.There are several families near the house, but no one lives there.

Yaris told Lin An: "There used to be a lot of people around here."

If two people want to live here, they have to tidy up the room.The original quilt was covered with dust and was very dirty.Aris dragged out the quilt and sheets from the cabinet. He didn't know how to spread them. He hugged the quilt and looked at Lin An.

During his three years in college, Lin An has already mastered the skill of dressing quilts and sheets.

Aris stood aside obediently, waiting for him to make the bed.

The two were about to go to bed when there was a rustling sound at the door.

The two looked at each other, not daring to relax.

They lit up the lights, and it was really conspicuous in this dark place.

Lin An and Aris walked to the door lightly, and looked through the crack of the door, only to see a middle-aged man standing at the door, looking at this side with doubts on his face, as if he wanted to knock on the door, but hesitated .

Aris hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand to open the door.Lin An was about to stop him, but after thinking about it, he let go.

Since Aris opened the door, he must know this person.

When the man saw Aris, he was very surprised: "Aris?"

Aris said expressionlessly: "Uncle Ain, what are you doing here?"

The man had short blond hair, and he smiled a little embarrassedly: "I saw the light was on here, I don't know what's going on, so I came to take a look. I thought something happened to you too..." Speaking of this, the man's voice stopped There was a little more worry, "It's good that you are fine, why are you back, everything is very dangerous now..."

The man was rambling, but Aris interrupted him: "Uncle Ian, I'm leaving tomorrow."

Ai En sighed: "Leave early, the battle is tense now. I'm relieved to see it's you."

Aris asked, "Where are my parents?"

When he asked this, Aris' hands trembled subconsciously.

Ain hesitated: "I'm afraid they... are no longer here. When I found out that day, they were taken away."

Aris nodded: "I see. Uncle Ain, you'd better leave quickly, or it will be bad for people to see."

Ain was about to speak when a pair of guards in armor came from a distance.They looked at the three of them suspiciously. The guard at the head had sharp eyes and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Ai En quickly explained: "They are my relatives, but my family can't live there, thinking that there is no one living here, so I asked them to come over to make ends meet for one night."

Even Cecien hadn't noticed that Aris had orc blood before, let alone these patrolling guards.

The guards questioned him casually, and walked away without finding any suspicious signs.

Aris almost made a move several times, but Lin An and Ain dragged him together to prevent him from succeeding.

After finally getting rid of Saixien, Lin An didn't want Aris to cause any trouble again.

Ai En told the two of them and left. Lin An dragged Aris into the house and closed the door firmly.

Aris said coldly, "Let me go!"

Lin An said: "What do you want to do? Fight them?"

Aris glared at him, walked into the room, and slammed the door.

dead child.Lin An simply gritted his teeth.If it wasn't for the mission requirements, Lin An wouldn't want to bother with him at all.

They only made the bed in the room below, and the quilts were all in the room below.

Lin An had no choice but to knock on the door.

Aris was inside and pretended he didn't hear it. Lin An walked for a day, and now he was tired and sleepy, and had to deal with Aris, it was miserable.

Lin An continued to knock on the door.

The door was pulled open abruptly, and Aris had a stinky face, as if strangers should not get close to him.

Lin An taunted: "Stop losing your temper?"

Aris walked in silently, sat by the bed, and touched the ring on his hand.

Seeing him like this, Lin An was originally full of anger, but this time he couldn't vent it.

Lin An sat down next to Yaris: "It's all over, so don't think about it."

"This is my home." Aris said, "My mother is an orc, and my father is a human magician."

Lin An turned to look at Aris. Aris lowered his head and fiddled with the ring. The ring reflected the light and landed on his cold face.

"When I became an adult, they sent me to Guangming Academy to learn magic. As a result, within half a month, the war between humans and orcs began." Yaris said, "I didn't know it at the time, but I was suddenly The classmates who get along with each other on weekdays caught and escorted him out."

"Actually, I've always thought of myself as a human being, but it wasn't until that time that I realized that they didn't think I was a human being." Aris sneered, "Humans always think that they are superior to others. It's a ridiculous idea."

Lin An didn't know what to say, so he patted him on the shoulder.

Aris explained: "I didn't mean to target you..."

"I know." Lin An said.

Aris lay down on the bed: "Go to sleep."

Lin An didn't bother to make the bed, it was already late at night, and he and Aris lay down side by side.

Aris stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, and Lin An tucked in the quilt for him.

At night Lin An fell into a drowsy sleep and had a dream.

It seems to have returned to the first world again, with heavy rain, but there is no one around.Suddenly he heard a child crying again, and he recognized almost immediately that it was his first child.

Then it turned into the appearance of the second world, Xie Xian's face was faintly visible.

Lin An tossed and turned, and suddenly woke up.

Aris was soundly asleep beside him, turned over and crawled beside him.

Drowsy in his head, Aris kicked the quilt away, and he got up to tuck it in.

Lin An always had something on his mind.

He wants to escape, to complete the task.

But he also had to think about how to face so many people in the end.

Aris, Xie Xian, Caesar, and the children.How to deal with it?

In Lin An's view, Aris is just a child.Some bad things have happened and my parents are gone.

To be honest, Lin An does have some attributes of the Virgin.Seeing Aris like this, he couldn't help feeling pity in his heart.

Aris was awkward and indifferent, and sometimes lost his temper. Lin An didn't know where his patience came from.

Forget it, let's take it one day at a time.

After Lin An covered the quilt, Aris had some dream, murmured something, hugged Lin An, and rubbed against his shoulder.

Lin An sighed, hugged him and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, the two were ready to leave.

There were many people on the street in the morning, and the two were going to find a carriage.

"Get out of the way!"

Someone shouted in front, and pedestrians stepped aside one after another.Lin An and Aris also stepped aside.

Several guards led a ragged, unkempt man forward.A priest in white followed behind with a staff.

In front is a small square in the town.Pedestrians like to watch the excitement and squeeze past.

Lin An didn't want to join in the fun, but Aris pulled him in.

Lin An whispered: "What's so interesting about this excitement?"

It seems that the man has committed something and needs to be tried or executed.

There were so many people that the center of the square was completely surrounded.This kind of small town usually doesn't have any major events, but now there is occasional excitement to watch, and everyone is very excited.

The two were squeezed close together.

Aris said something in a low voice, but Lin An couldn't hear it because it was too noisy.

Good handwriting, no hand feel... The author has something to say: I haven't thanked Ruanruan Lei for a few days, (*one or two]
