A land of orcs with more men and fewer women

Seeing Seth holding Lilith in his arms, he was about to enter Longwei Lane, where the Cavendish family was located.

"Who's there? Come out!!"

An angry shout sounded not far away from Lilith and Seth.

Lilith, who was in Seth's arms, shrank from the sudden sound.

Seth noticed in time, and kept comforting Lilith with his palms through his cloak.

Lilith nervously grasped the edge of the cloak with her little hands, quietly opened one edge, and looked towards the place where the sound came from.

I saw a male orc with a scar piercing his left eye, standing in the lead at the entrance of the alley.

Orcs have extremely strong healing powers, and Lilith has never seen any orcs with lasting scars before.

Her little hands gently lifted the cloak further, and her dark blue eyes turned to look over there.

The scar-eyed orc was wearing a city guard uniform, and behind him he led a group of orcs, who seemed to be city guards patrolling at night.

Seth reached out and covered Lilith's cloak again. Walked out of the dark alley.

Seth didn't stop until the torch in the other man's hand could illuminate his face.

In the orc team behind the scar-eyed orc, several orcs recognized Seth by the firelight.

"Master Seth."

"I've met Master Seth."

...They all saluted and said hello to Seth, the hot candidate to succeed the city lord.

The other orcs in the team who didn't recognize Seth began to hesitate when they saw the reaction of their teammates.

Only the scar-eyed leading orc remained unmoved.

When he heard a team member behind him saying hello to Seth, the scar-eyed orc did not soften his attitude. He looked at Seth up and down with vigilance.

The scar-eyed orc bent his elbow and paused with the palm of his right hand in the air. The orc behind him immediately stopped discussing.

Seth narrowed his bloody eyes.

The Scar-Eyed Orc approached Seth alone with a torch, and the flames almost caught Lilith's cloak, which aroused Seth's displeasure.

Under Seth's lowered palm, martial energy was flowing and gathering.

The scar-eyed orc obviously felt the flow of Seth's martial energy. He took a step back and stared at Seth's movements.

"Do you see clearly?" Seth's young voice had his unique coldness.

The scar-eyed orc stood where he was: "Master Seth, according to Lila City's nighttime ban, it is now a period when orcs, other than patrols, are prohibited from appearing in public areas of Lila City."

Seth said coldly: "I know."

The scar-eyed orc looked directly at Seth and said, "If you disobey the ban, you need to be escorted to the small cell in the office. The office will impose penalties based on the degree of violation the next day."

Seth nodded.

Lilith, who was wrapped in a cloak, held Seth's arm tightly with her little hands.

The scar-eyed orc said in a business-like tone: "Then will Master Seth follow us to the office now? Or will we escort you there?"

Seth patted Lilith's back through his cloak to comfort him, and replied in a cold tone: "After I send the little orc home, I will go to the office to receive the punishment."

Seth moved forward to avoid the scar-eyed orc.

Unexpectedly, the scar-eyed orc stretched out his hand to stop Seth who was about to pass him: "Master Seth, I am performing official duties. I hope you can cooperate."

Seth turned his face sideways and looked at the scar-eyed orc with blood-stained eyes without emotion: "The little female beast is under the age of 8 and is exempt from punishment."

Scar-Eyed Orc: "You're full. I'll accompany you to see off the little female beast. Then please move to the office."

Seth looked at the scar-eyed orc steadily, and after a while: "Yes."

After that, he turned around, no longer looking at the scar-eyed orc, and walked straight into Longwei Lane where the Cavendish family was located.

The scar-eyed orc lowered his head and let Seth walk in front, then waved behind him.

The orcs in the orc team all lowered their heads and remained silent when the boss stopped Master Seth.

At this time, their boss, the Scar-Eyed Orc, waved to them, and all of them followed him swiftly without saying a word.

Lilith sat on Seth's arm, her little head wrapped in the cloak trying to poke out.

Every time he opened a little bit of his cloak, Seth covered him back up.

Lilith stayed in the safe but blocked cloak, her brows furrowed, and the worry in her deep blue eyes could not be concealed.

She tilted her little neck up and tried to see Seth through the gap in her cloak.

But he still couldn't see that Seth kept tightening the cloak, and finally pressed the back of Lilith's head with one hand.

Lilith's little head was completely unable to move.

She lay on Seth's chest, listening to Seth's steady heartbeat, and her worries were temporarily calmed.
