A land of orcs with more men and fewer women

As Lilith walked down the stairs step by step.

Her legs became weaker and weaker, and she staggered and almost fell on the stairs.

Lilith quickly pressed her hand against the wall to steady herself.

He stood firmly on his feet, but because he used too much force, his palm was scratched by the relief on the wall, leaving a small blood bead.

Lilith quickly moved her hand away from the wall to prevent the blood from staining the exquisite relief.

Fortunately, she acted quickly and no marks were left on the wall.

Lilith looked down at the blood drop in her palm, not knowing what to do with it, just as she didn't know how to deal with what had just happened.

Lilith really wanted to sit on the stairs and rest for a while, but she was worried that the city lord would show up.

He had no choice but to clench his palms, force himself to walk down the stairs with weak legs and feet.

When we reached the first floor, we could hear laughter coming from not far away.

Following the brisk music, I looked up to see the bright candlelight...

Lilith subconsciously wanted to go to where there were many orcs.

Suddenly, I felt strong again.

Lilith took two steps at a time and left the empty annex building at a speed almost like running.

As soon as she stepped out of the annex building, she heard a voice calling her to stop.

"Sister Lilith! Sister Lilith!!" It was Rouxi's excited voice.

Lilith was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and turned around to see Rouxi standing under the pillar of the annex building.

Rouxi skipped towards Lilith.

Seeing her familiar relatives, Lilith's tense heart relaxed a little.

The two little orcs held each other's hands and shook them.

Lilith cleverly avoided the cut on her palm and didn't let Rouxi notice.

Rouxi carefully examined Lilith's expression and frowned: "Did the city lord bully you? You don't look well."

Lilith forced a smile and shook her head.

Rouxi was dissatisfied and wanted to say something else, but Lilith shook her hand and looked around with a signaling look.

Ruoxi opened his mouth, then closed it reluctantly, pouting in dissatisfaction.

Lilith distracted her by asking, "Where are Grandma Kurta and Aunt Diana?"

Rouxi immediately took Lilith's hand and walked towards where the elders were, chattering.

Kurta and Diana were relieved when they saw Lilith and the little orc returned safely.

He looked at Lilith's expression again, calmed down, and prepared to ask the child again on the way back.

Kurta then waved to Lilith and Rouxi, calling them over.

When Lilith and Rouxi saw it, they ran over with a clattering sound.

Lilith's originally pale face became more rosy after running for a while.

Kurta took the opportunity to introduce the tribesmen they were talking to to Lilith and Rouxi.

There was another round of greetings and greetings, and I became familiar with him.

……

When the first crescent moon was about to reach its zenith, the city lord Ultra also appeared at the banquet, bringing the banquet to a climax.

The appearance of City Lord Ottla at the family banquet this time was different from the last celebration banquet.

The city lord Ultra blended into the banquet in a low-key manner, but attracted the attention of all the orcs who attended the banquet.

He raised his glass and smiled at the orcs near and far.

Lilith stood inconspicuously among the orcs, and raised her glass to the city lord in return with everyone else.

Perhaps the tense nerves can no longer bear the burden after frequent social interactions.

Lilith expressed to Grandma Kurta that she wanted to rest and declined Rouxi's company.

A little orc walked alone into the bush path on the side.

The path connects to the corridor on one side of the annex building.

There was a familiar figure, sitting sideways with his back against the pillar.

The orc was looking up at the moon.

As quiet as a painting.

Lilith stopped.

But it was obviously too late.

The orc who was looking up at the moon turned back and smiled at her: "Lilith."

"Seth..." Lilith called him softly.

Seth nodded, with a calm smile in his bloodshot eyes.

The red crystal beside my ear kept shaking as I turned my head.

Lilith walked towards Seth as if attracted by the red crystal.

He followed Seth's example and sat down on the edge of the corridor, swaying back and forth with his legs off the ground.

Sitting on the cool stone bricks of the corridor, the tired Lilith felt relaxed physically and mentally.

The originally indescribable anxious mood was temporarily soothed.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Seth, only to find that Seth was looking up at the moon again.

Lilith imitated Seth's gaze and turned to look up at the moon.

The moon of the Lilts continent is different from her hometown, the Earth in her previous life.

There are two bright moons here, one rising and one setting.

If you missed the rise of the first moon, you may still be able to see the rise of the second moon.

Although the second moon is no longer the moon that you wanted to see at the beginning.

For many orcs who just want to "appreciate the moon", there is no difference whether it is the first round or the second round.

After all, it's just a "moon".

Like many things, if you miss it once, there is always a second time. People often use this excuse to comfort themselves, to warn themselves not to be too obsessed and to let it go.

Especially the older orcs, who have experienced too much and have unconsciously become numb.

I gradually forgot how I felt when I missed you for the first time. Or, I subconsciously chose to forget.

Lilith, who has lived two lives, is obviously not mature enough.

Maybe it's because her current life is very small, or maybe it's because she didn't get much love in her past life...

If other orcs were nice to her, she could immediately feel it.

For this reason, if she didn't do something well, a lot of guilt and self-blame might overwhelm her continuously.

And Seth was not just an orc who was just nice to her, he was an orc who was very, very good to her.

Even the slightest bit of guilt towards Seth haunts her again and again.

In addition, the sympathy generated by the conversation with the city lord just now continued to intensify Lilith's inner emotions.

She wanted to do something practical for Seth, but she couldn't find a specific goal.

If it is just spoken verbally, it seems superficial and meaningless.
