On the hillside, Chu Zheng looked at the plains in the distance. The fields were always silent at night, with a tranquility that made people silent. She liked to immerse herself in this tranquility, just as she liked to remain silent.

At this time, she heard a footstep breaking the tranquility. The sound was very light, but it was still so obvious to her.

When he first turned around, his godless eyes could not see what was in front of him, but evil sensed that someone was walking towards her.

She knew this person, the captain of the mercenary squad hired by Mann, who seemed to be named Lorna.

Chu was stunned for a moment. She didn't know what the other party was asking her for. They probably hadn't communicated with each other in the past few days.

Did she just want to have a chat with someone? When she first thought about this, she didn't mind chatting for a few words, as long as the other party didn't talk about topics she was not good at.

But Lorna walked towards her quickly, and seemed to have no intention of stopping, and walked straight to her.

In the dull expression, Lorna hugged her into her arms and said in a calm voice.

"We already know what you are going through. Don't worry, we will never tolerate such things. No matter what kind of contract you have signed with that young man, no matter how much torture you have suffered in the past, we will rescue you. Leave the things afterwards to us, and you can rely on us with confidence. It's okay, it's okay."

Lorna held Chu's hands very strongly, and she would gently stroke it from time to time to show comfort (although the original intention of this action was not necessarily so pure). Her tone was heavy and reliable, and her strong armor made her look like a knight worth relying on.

The waist is so thin, no.

Feeling the cold and "weak" body in her arms, Lorna's heart was even more pity and hugged her hands tighter. She could already imagine the abused girl lying in her arms and crying bitterly. She would listen to her crying and give her a shoulder. Now, and in the future, it will be the case.

"If you want to cry, just cry." Lorna said, with a righteous look on her face.

However, Chu, who was held in her arms, stood with a confused look on his face.

After a long time, Lorna finally heard the person in her arms making a sound, but the sound was only one word.

"ha?"

······

"So." Beside the bonfire at night, Mann looked at the members of the Silver Sword Squad sitting in front of him with a depressed look, pointed at himself and then pointed at Chu.

"You suspect that I abused her?"

What a joke, did I abuse her?

Mann felt a sense of laughter and crying. Have you ever seen this guy tearing a giant beast in Hiskama's beast group? I abused her. Sorry, I'm still young and I want to live longer.

He was sleeping soundly, but suddenly he was woken up by the first one, but this is what he said?

"You don't give her food or let her rest. These are what we have seen with our own eyes. What is this not abuse?" John the dwarf sat cross-legged on the ground, holding his thighs with his hands, and said with a serious face.

Lizardman Jill nodded.

"Well, this, you have to give an explanation." The mage Lily hugged the staff in front of her and said in a low voice. I have to say that even when she was asking, the girl had no momentum.

Lorna sat on the far left, and she still hugged Chu's waist, without any intention of letting go, and called it comfort.

Chu sat next to Lorna with expressionless expression, and she seemed a little well-behaved. How could she say that, she thought the scene in front of her was quite interesting.

"This..." Mann grabbed his hair in distress. He could not explain this. Could it be that he would say that he was a mysterious creature summoned by him from another space and did not need to eat or sleep?

If he said this, he guaranteed that the other party would look at him from sadistic to mental illness, which would be even more dangerous.

"Actually." Seeing Mann unable to defend himself, and the members of the Silver White Sword's eyes became more and more confident, Chu finally spoke.

“I voluntarily.”

"Volunteer?" Dwarf Mann opened his mouth in surprise.

"Chu, now we are here, you don't need to be afraid of him, just tell the truth." Lorna said to Chu's ear, not knowing if it was intentional, her lips were almost against Chu's earlobe, which made Chu's ears itch a little.

"It was indeed my own voluntary." Chu turned his head and continued calmly.

"This is a way of practicing. Not eating or sleeping can better exercise my own will."

The bonfire was silent.

"This..." The dwarf grabbed his beard blankly.

Is there any other way of practicing?

"Yes." Lizardman Jill frowned and thought for a while, then looked at his teammates and said.

"I did hear of some northern monks who practice fasting and sleeping."

The people from the Silver Sword Squad looked at each other in embarrassment.

Lily's face began to turn red, and the dwarf John uncomfortably patted the wine pot around her waist and slapped haha, the lizardman Gilmer kept silent, Lorna's body stiffened.

They knew that this was a big misunderstanding.

······

The farce ended soon, and Mann went back to sleep while yawning, while the Silver Sword Squad returned to his resting place.

Their faces were a little dark and helpless. They had done such a big thing and even "hijacked" the client. There was no need to think that they could guess the result in the future. It was probably unilaterally removed from the mission again. It was good that Mann would not sue them at the Adventurers Association.

The dwarf John sat dejectedly in the corner holding his wine pot. He was considering whether he should quit drinking, because he probably wouldn't be able to drink it in the next few months.

The lizardman Jill solemnly apologized to everyone, saying that he was not thinking carefully and did not think about the possibility of practicing immediately.

Lily looked at her teammates worriedly, while Lorna was helplessly announcing that she would start packing her luggage. If nothing unexpected happens, Mann would probably let them leave tomorrow morning.

At this time, Chu came to their camp.

It seems that there is no need to wait until tomorrow morning. Lorna thought Chu was here to get rid of the mission, and thought to Chu in depressed thought and said to Chu.

"We will leave after packing our luggage."

"Why leave?" Chu's tone was filled with some doubts: "Isn't the mission not over yet?"

"You mean, aren't you going to cancel our commission?" Lorna asked in disbelief.

Hearing this, the Silver Swordsmen also stopped their movements and looked at Chu.

"Of course not." Chu said as expected, this was what Mann meant, and he didn't care about such trivial matters.

And in a sense, Lorna and the others did this with good intentions.

The dwarf John held his wine pot and kissed him, knowing that he would not have to quit drinking anymore.

"Thank you very much." The lizardman Jill in the corner lowered his head slightly to Chu to express his gratitude.

"Yeah." Lily also held the staff excitedly and said, "Thank you."

This mission is really the most important to them.

But even so, they chose to give up their mission to rescue the abused minion, although this was just a misunderstanding.

"Thank you, thank you." Standing in front of Chu, Lorna nodded awkwardly: "You can forgive us for doing this..."

"It's okay." First, he looked at Lorna with a faint smile on his face.

"And I don't hate it, what you did before."

She has never been worried about this way.

Lorna looked at Chu who was smiling and dazed out of her mind.

"Then, have a good rest, we will set out tomorrow morning." After saying that, Chu turned around and left.

"Li, Lily..." When I first walked away, Lorna stood there, her voice tremblingly calling Lily's name.

"What's wrong?" asked the mage Lily behind her.

Lorna turned around and covered her hot cheeks: "I think I met it..."

"What did you encounter?" Lily was stunned.

Lorna replied: "The destined person..."

Lizardman Jill and Dwarf John rolled their eyes at the same time and said in unison: "You say this every time."
