Bakar stood in the crater of the volcano, looking excitedly at Lin Li riding a giant flaming lion in the sky. He felt that Lin Li's strength at this time was completely on par with his own, and he thought that the Demon King's trip must be
Any unexpected gains?
"Haha, I made you worry."
Irons transformed back into a little lion and lay on Lin Li's shoulders. Lin Li also fell back into the crater again, smiling and talking to Bakar.
"Where are Ron and the others? Have they gone back?"
"No, they are all still waiting for your return in Archibald's underground world."
"Okay, then let's go find them quickly."
When Lin Li heard that Ron and the others were still waiting for him at the dwarfs, he quickly flew down the mountain.
"Yes! Hmm? The king...the sword of the king?"
As soon as Bakar agreed to Lin Li, he saw Lin Li's back and the eye-catching red giant sword on his back. He shouted in surprise. He didn't expect that the Demon King's artifact, which had suddenly disappeared before, would always be there.
In his Keda volcano, no wonder he didn't see the Demon King using this magical weapon that helped him conquer all directions during the war.
Lin Li didn't notice Bakar's surprise and quickly returned to the underground capital and went directly to Grandma Mandali's hotel.
"You idiot, you are finally back!"
Tammy, who was playing with Morton outside the hotel, saw Lin Li who had returned, shouted excitedly and threw herself into Lin Li's arms.
"Well, how are you? Have you gotten into any trouble recently?"
Lin Li smiled and touched Tammy's little head and asked with a smile.
"Well……"
After hearing Lin Li's words, Tammy left Lin Li's arms and stood aside, scratching her head in embarrassment.
Lin Li's heart skipped a beat when he saw the way she shook her head. It seemed that he had guessed correctly. He didn't know what kind of trouble this little girl had gotten into recently.
"Tell me, what did you do again?"
Lin Li said deliberately pretending to be angry.
"I don't blame Sister Tami. Sister Tami beat those children who talked about me just to stand up for me."
Before Tammy could speak, Morton stood aside and shouted first.
"Huh? What's going on?"
"Those underground kids all say that Morton is the son of a mother but not a mother!"
Tammy said angrily, she couldn't hear this the most in her heart. Her parents had been taken away since she was a child, and she knew best the pain of not having her parents around. And those rude children actually used this to tease Morton,
This is something that Tammy can ignore. They are a group of children who have a mother but not a mother!
Lin Li was stunned when he heard Tammy's words. As an orphan, he had never seen his parents, but fortunately the orphanage where he lived was a place with a good atmosphere, and no one had ever used their parents.
To make fun of them, but Morton is only a six or seven-year-old kid.
"Did they really say that?"
Lin Li knelt down and looked directly at Morton.
"Yeah... But I'm used to it. After my parents went out to look for high-end materials, they never came back. I have been living with the patriarch, grandpa. I have long been accustomed to life without my parents."
Morton avoided Lin Li's eyes and spoke lightly.
But Lin Li knew that this little boy must not be as relaxed as he seemed on the surface. What child wouldn't want to stay with his parents?
"If you feel uncomfortable, vent it out. Don't suppress your emotions. Don't be afraid of getting into trouble. The right thing is right. No matter who does something wrong, you will be punished. But this pain is not for you.
It’s your responsibility, you know?”
When Morton heard Lin Li's words, he stared at Lin Li blankly. His eyes began to get redder and redder, and gradually tears began to flow out uncontrollably. Morton's little hands began to wipe his eyes continuously.
"I...I really miss them!"
Morton cried and shouted out the words that had been suppressed in his heart for who knows how long. Since his parents were gone, he had not dared to say this to anyone, not even to the patriarch who adopted him, because he thought
Grandpa, the patriarch, has done enough for him by adopting him. He must be a "sensible" child and not cause any trouble to the people around him.
Lin Li looked at the little boy who was already crying and couldn't help but feel a little distressed. He didn't know how long this child had been depressed. If this child who was so sensible was completely inconsistent with his age, if he continued to be "sensible"
Is that really a good thing for him?
"If you want to cry from now on, no one will blame you."
Lin Li put Morton's head on his shoulder, stroked Morton's head, and comforted him softly.
"Hmph! If I had known earlier, I should have struck harder, so that those bad guys would have a long memory!"
Tammy stood next to Lin Li, looking at Morton who was crying very sadly, and stamped his feet angrily.
"You...what happened to those people who bullied Morton? No one was killed, right?"
Lin Li bounced his brain on Tammy's head and said helplessly.
"Well...of course not, but those guys can't get out of bed unless they lie in bed for two months."
Tammy clenched her fists and said viciously.
Lin Li looked at Tammy, shook his head, and stretched out his hand to Tammy again.
Tammy was so frightened that she quickly covered her head and said nervously: "Hey, I know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it next time. Just don't play me."
Lin Li smiled and put two gold coins into Tammy's palm, "I did nothing wrong this time. Protect the friends around you. This is what you should do when learning magic. If your friends are bullied, you can still stand by and watch.
, that is something completely wrong, then what is the use of learning this magic?"
Tammy stared blankly at the gold coins in her hand, and a big smile gradually appeared on her face again.
"Yeah! I know!"
Morton also stopped crying at this time, stepped back from Lin Li's shoulders and walked out, and couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Tammy.
"Thank you, Lord Demon King."
Morton rubbed his eyes and still spoke very politely.
"Just call me big brother from now on. Sometimes being too sensible is a mistake, you know? Being sensible means knowing whether something is right or wrong, instead of being afraid of causing trouble and choosing to tolerate and surrender, so that those who bully you will not
Because of your tolerance, you know that what they did was wrong. At critical moments, you have to learn to stand up for what you think is right. Do you understand?"
Lin Li touched Morton's little head and said with a smile.
"Well...I know."
Although Morton still didn't fully understand, he still nodded.
