A land of orcs with more men and fewer women

The next day.

"Ah!"

Lilith was awakened from her sleep by the hair floating on the tip of her nose.

With sleepy eyes, he twisted away the orange hair with his little hands.

Lilith sat up.

"Are you awake?" A sister came in.

She is a temple apprentice, and she has been helping Lilith heal these days.

"Sister Petunia~" Lilith shouted sweetly.

An apprentice named Penny came forward and first recited a prayer rune.

Lilith's upper body was surrounded by a circle of light.

Seeing that the originally dark black color had turned into dark gray.

Petunia said happily: "Lilith, you are recovering well~ As long as the color turns to light gray, you can go home."

"Really? Sister Petunia." Lilith was surprised.

"Really, hahaha. I didn't expect you to recover so quickly." Penny explained patiently.

"Does it mean that if I turn light gray, I'm completely fine?" Lilith's face was pale, and the clear expectation in her eyes made the orcs unable to bear to deceive her.

Penny looked away in embarrassment.

The joy on Lilith's face suddenly disappeared, and she was a little confused: "Sister Petunia? Lilith can go home. Isn't it just that her body has recovered and gotten better?"

Penny, who has a few freckles under her eyes, is a gentle and considerate female orc.

There was a hint of pity in her brown eyes at the moment.

Petunia gently sat down beside Lilith's stone bed, and she reached out to smooth Lilith's hair.

Petunia's attitude made Lilith pinch the blanket involuntarily.

"Lilith, we can see your physical condition through the aperture. However, we cannot judge the negative impact of the poison you have been exposed to." Petunia explained for Lilith.

"Negative impact? Sister Petunia, what is a negative impact?" It was the first time Lilith heard such a statement, and she felt a little unsure.

"There are many types of negative effects. To put it simply, it's like seeing yellow as red." Penny gave an example.

Upon hearing this, Lilith felt that this problem was big or small. She pursed her lips and asked, "Sister Petunia, what are the common negative effects? What will the serious ones look like?"

After Penny thought carefully, she answered Lilith: "In fact, most of the things I often encounter in temples are simple ones. A little more serious, they may cause dizziness and vomiting when seeing special items or colors. Or have permanent effects on the body.”

Penny finally added: "The worst thing is that there is no reaction at all. But when a trigger condition is encountered, death will occur."

Lilith was stunned.

"Hahaha. This is of course the rarest. Even I have only heard of it in the temple. Lilith doesn't have to worry too much. This kind of situation usually shows up during previous treatments." Petunia He winked at Lilith.

"Huh~" Lilith patted Petunia's arm, "Sister Petunia is so bad, she scared me."

Petunia smiled and touched Lilith's hair: "I see you were too nervous before."

Lilith thought for a while and asked Petunia: "So in situations like mine, is it mostly the former that Sister Petunia said?"

Penny was not completely sure: "After the aperture color changes to light gray, a mid-level priest will confirm it for you. Generally, the result at that time will prevail."

"Alas..." Lilith sighed.

"What are you sighing for?" Petunia knocked Lilith on the head.

Lilith glanced sideways at Penny: "You don't understand. You have to wait for several days to know what the situation is. It's like a knife hanging above your head." After saying that, Lilith shook her head seriously.

The appearance of the little adult amused Petunia.

Thinking of a piece of news she heard recently, Petunia thought she could talk to Lilith to distract her.

Petunia crooked Lilith with her elbow mysteriously.

Lilith said listlessly: "Huh?"

Petunia whispered: "A big thing happened in Lila City recently!"

"What?" Lilith couldn't bring herself to get excited. What could be more interesting to people than her unknown physical condition?

"Haha~ Did you know that some time ago, many little female beasts disappeared out of thin air in Lila City?" When Penny heard this, she was also very scared.

She didn't want to, but Lilith replied: "I know."

Penny was shocked: "You know?!"

"I know." Lilith's already depressed mood became even lower when she thought of this matter.

"How do you know?" Because Penny is an apprentice in the temple, news always comes relatively quickly. But Lilith is just a little female beast, where did you know that? Penny was a little curious.

"My father accidentally discovered it before. Our family also reduced going out some time ago because of this incident." Lilith explained.

Penny understood. She heard that Lord Main had a mercenary group.

But even if Lilith had heard about the disappearance of the little female beast, Petunia's tone was still mysterious: "But, the disappeared little female beast...is back!"

"Ah?! Really?" Lilith's mood was like sitting on a rocket launcher, full of surprises.

"Yeah. He was rescued." Petunia told Lilith.

Lilith was not acquainted with the disappeared little female beasts.

Little female beasts who were forced to leave their families and lost their identities out of thin air. You must be very scared and at a loss.

Not to mention the loss of identity, which leads to the loss of protection. Such hellish horrific consequences.

The former alone is enough to make the orcs unacceptable.

After her previous life, Lilith now knows very well that she can stay with her loving family members and become a family.

What a blessing.

Lilith thought of her mother, father, and brothers.

I was sincerely happy for the little female beasts who came back.

A smile finally appeared on Lilith's face: "Great! Sister Petunia, this is really good news!"

Penny also nodded in agreement: "Who says it's not the case?"

Immediately afterwards, Penny said with admiration on her face: "Come to think of it, this is all the result of Master Seth!"

"Ah!" The happy smile on Lilith's face was a little stunned...

Since waking up, Lilith has not heard from Seth for a long time.

Seth…never came to see her either.

Lilith's eyes drooped, looking at the blanket, feeling a little sad.

Petunia was in such a state of emotion that she didn't notice Lilith.

"Master Seth is the twenty-fifth young master of the City Lord's Mansion, the youngest son of our Lord of Lila City. I heard that his martial arts talent is the best among all the young masters of the City Lord's Mansion." He said the last sentence. , there was obvious pride in Penny's voice.

"Really?..." Lilith's voice was a little low.

Lilith looked at the blanket in her hand and thought wildly, is Seth so powerful? …

so good. Lilith smiled slightly.

"Of course!" Penny seemed to have transformed into a follower of Seth.

Not allowing others to have any questions, Petunia began to introduce Seth's life and personality to Lilith loudly.

It ranges from Seth’s future potential development to something as small as Seth’s favorite colors and numbers...

A small corner of the blanket in Lilith's hand had been pulled out by her.

"By the way! Lilith, you don't know, right?" Penny pushed Lilith again, "Master Seth returned to the city this time and not only rescued the little female beasts. He also brought back a large flame beast! "

Penny was immersed in her emotions: "Lilith! I have heard from other orcs countless times what happened on the day Master Seth returned to the city?"

"But, every time! It feels like the first time! It's really amazing! Master Seth~" Penny seemed to replay the scene of the day in her mind, relying on her personal imagination. Cheeks are red.

"Hey...it's a pity that I wasn't there on the day Master Seth returned to the city..." Penny patted her thigh regretfully.

"That day?..." Lilith repeated in a murmur.

Seth that day.

Under the city gate, there were voices shouting his name.

There is a huge flame beast behind him, and thousands of orcs are waiting in front of him.

It is indeed majestic and exciting.

But what impressed Lilith the most was Seth’s blood-stained body, but his bloody eyes still looked like spring water...

And... there are old and new scars on his body.

The blanket in Lilith's hand is no longer in shape...

I wonder if he is okay now?
