Meg raised her eyebrows and smiled lightheartedly.

"Sounds really good. The task is simple and the pay is high. Miss, are you sure you want to hire us? I always feel that you can handle it yourself."

"Of course I need to hire you."

Of course, Margaret would not say that she was reminded of this by her friend in a dream, and only then did she think of this.

"After all, we are outsiders, and we will inevitably encounter many difficulties that could have been avoided if we launched operations in this unfamiliar place."

"And the Peregrine Falcon Mercenary Group has always had a good reputation, so I hope to hire you to minimize the risk of this exploration."

Meg smiled with some pride.

That's right, if this eldest lady really leads the team there without thinking, she is sure that these people will never get to that place in their lifetime - even if they have an accurate map.

In this world, there are too many things that cannot be overcome simply by strength.

All kinds of eyes have already focused on this group of outsiders, waiting for them to show their flaws.

And her peregrine falcon mercenary group is indeed the most capable here to help this young lady overcome these problems.

"So, when are we going to leave?"

Margaret's answer to Meg's question was also very concise.

"Actually, I intend to leave today."

"We have prepared enough supplies, and Mr. Albert can bring the specific list to you for confirmation."

"no problem."

Meg nodded.

For this aspect, she has nothing to worry about.

Consideration is always the number one priority when a nobleman handles affairs, and this eldest lady is obviously prepared, which makes her, the person who takes over the job, feel at ease a lot.

"Then I have a proposal, I wonder if you are interested."

Meg thought for a while, and said her suggestion.

"Your entourage can arrange the team to leave now. And you can take a few people with me to our camp to get acquainted with our companions first."

"In this way, we can use our time more effectively, and you can also have a more comprehensive understanding of the people you hired, so that you can make decisions later."

"Great offer, thank you, Mame."

So, half an hour later, Margaret showed up in front of the camp of the Peregrine Mercenary Group with several of her maids.

Before they entered the camp area, a lively black-haired girl ran out and jumped directly onto Meg.

"Meimei, I'm back, are you happy?"

Meg smiled shyly at her employer, first hugged the girl for a while, and then formally introduced her.

"Well, this is Julie, my deputy head and my lover."

"what?"

This introduction greatly exceeded Margaret's expectations.

She froze for a moment and stopped where she was.

"Ah, it's really rare, but there's nothing I can do about it. I just like women."

Meg seemed to have encountered this situation many times, so she just admitted that she was special.

"Actually, it's okay. The key is love, not sex, isn't it?"

"We want to be together, so we are together. We don't expect anyone's blessing, but even death can't tear us apart."

What Meg said later, Margaret didn't hear at all.

To be honest, the information she consulted was enough for her to realize that something was wrong with her feelings.

But she has always believed that love is something that happens between a man and a woman. If the goal is wrong, it should not be love.

But at this moment, a living example appeared in front of her.

Even women can truly love each other.

"Miss Margaret? Sorry, if this makes you too uncomfortable, we can also terminate this commission."

"Ah, no need!"

Margaret woke up suddenly.

She waved her hand, indicating that she had no problem with this kind of thing.

"I just envy your feelings..."

In order to hide her shock, she hastily added.

"Ha, let me just say, Julie, you are so enthusiastic, you scared our employer!"

"No way, we haven't seen each other for a week, I miss you!"

These words once again caused waves in Margaret's heart.

She and Serena haven't seen each other for over a month.

She really missed Serena, those gorgeous dreams were not real after all.

"Serena, will you miss me?"

Muttering, she said such words.

Chapter 24 Returning Phyllis Part [-]

"If only Margaret were here."

Facing the gully in front of her eyes, Serena expressed such emotion.

Well, here was originally a flat road, but a heavy rain cut the road in half by the torrent.

At this time, Serena very much hoped that Margaret could be here, repeating the scene in Ganquan Castle.

Unfortunately, even if Margaret is a magician, she cannot appear here out of thin air.

And whether she still has that kind of magic scroll on her body is a huge question mark.

"Meredith, are there any other roads nearby that will allow us to continue west?"

The blond vampire glanced at Serena resentfully, and replied softly:

"No, there are two roads nearby, but neither of them can allow carriages to pass."

"Besides, the avenue has become like this, and the two small roads might not be able to walk at all."

Serena frowned at this answer.

Now she has to make a decision, whether to find a way to detour, or to wait here patiently for the rain to stop and organize local people to repair the road.

Without much thought, she rejected the second item.

It would be fine if it was a more prosperous place, this place in front of me is a real bird shit.

There is only one small village nearby, and even the villagers are mostly old and weak.

Rather than expecting these people to come out to build roads, it is better to expect the passing merchants to report the information to the nearby nobles, and then pass it all the way to the king.

That's right, this kind of straight road was built by the king, and the local nobles would not take the initiative to maintain it.

Just thinking about this process made Serena feel upset, let alone waiting for such a long time.

"So, is there any other way to detour?"

Meredith nodded.

"Yes, continue to walk south for two days, and you can reach Hirudana, which is the fur collection."

"From there, you can take the waterway to the west to reach Crow Harbor, and then you can take the south straight road back to Basho City."

"Sounds good too."

Serena took out the map and pondered it carefully.

If you walk this way, you won't miss the places she marked before.

However, a fur collection is not a good place.

She had heard a little about it in her previous life. This small town that seems to trade fur is actually the most prosperous slave market in the mainland.

Yes, the kingdom had explicitly banned the slave trade decades ago, but that was only for humans.

Orcs, dwarves, elves, even demons and vampires are not under the protection of the law.

And the fur market is the distribution center for half-orc trade.

Every once in a while, a slave hunting team would return from the dense forest in the south and sell the captured half-orc slaves to the public.

The most ironic thing about this matter is that the half-orcs were actually the heroic troops on the human side in that crucial war...

Back then, in order to fight against the demons and strike the demon's connection and supply lines, the magicians endowed the volunteers with the abilities of various beasts and created a race out of thin air on this continent.

And these transformed half-orcs, under the astonishing sacrifice, forcibly disrupted the demon's front to pieces.

Unfortunately, after the war, human beings quickly forgot the sacrifices of these compatriots and drove them out of the group.

In the following hundreds of years, half-orcs were forced to continue to [>

If they hadn't acquired the beast-like reproductive ability, they might have become extinct long ago.

Serena still remembered that after she raised troops against the Kingdom Army in the southern border in her previous life, the half-orcs quickly became her most steadfast allies.

And what brings these two feuding races together is human arrogance and prejudice...

"Alright, then let's go to the fur fair. I think the people there would also like to see the glory of Saint Gillian."

Hearing what Serena said, Moira couldn't help interjecting to remind:

"Sister Serena, Phyllis hasn't come back yet."

"It's okay, she's here."

Serena opened the car window and pointed north.

"Look, isn't that what it is?"

Moira immediately lay down by the window, poked her head out and watched.

That's right, the figure on the horse and wearing the poncho is her good sister.

"Sister Phyllis, you're back! Come in and get warm!"

A few minutes later, Phyllis put on Moira's scarf, took the hot tea made by Moira, and sat silently on the car seat.

Her eyes lingered on Meredith for a moment, then drifted to Serena.

"Sister Phyllis?"

Moira yelled with some concern.

Phyllis is in a very bad state.

Although she used to always look full of thoughts, her vision never really dimmed.

But now, Moira really felt that something in Phyllis's heart was broken, and her eyes became dizzy.

"I am fine."

Seeing the worry on Moira's face, Phyllis shook her head slightly.

"I just haven't figured out some things."

Moira breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

She smiled and pointed to Serena.

"Then you can ask Sister Serena! You won't doubt her wisdom, will you?"

Phyllis froze for a moment.

Indeed, even though she doubted Serena's identity and intentions, she never doubted Serena's wisdom.
