Chapter 10 You must complain to the General Assembly when you have the opportunity
The orcs were eating. They made a fire and melted ice into water, then put in dried meat and dry food, and cooked soup, seasoned only with salt.
To be honest, Lu En has an incredible amount of salt. Among the reserves in the cave, salt accounts for more than 80%, because he has deliberately collected salt, whether it is table salt or not. There is also a lot of rock salt in the cave.
He also ordered the orcs to scrape some off and store them when they had nothing to do. Anyway, there was no need to worry about pretending. Human clothes were torn into pieces and turned into cloth, which could be easily made into bags.
Kara didn't want to take care of anyone other than Lu En, so she just brought a pot of soup made by the orcs and put it aside.
Lu En is not here for the time being, he is discussing the next battle with Tai Lin.
The dragon maid looked at the temporary bed, which was made of tent frames and sleeping bags. At first glance, it looked like an ordinary bed. It was certainly not luxurious, but in this simple environment, this was the best Kara could do.
.
Kara glanced at Nana who fainted, and decided to wait until her master came to deal with it. Now she should prepare a change of wet clothes and dinner for her master.
This is a maid's job.
The dragon maid walked in the cave. In the dark cave, creatures without dark vision could only see a pair of pale golden eyes, emitting a faint light. Then, Kara closed her eyes and began to examine her body.
The dragon's body has completely collapsed, and it can only rely on complete transformation, using the human body to temporarily suppress the injury. Human magic does have merit. The hundreds of magic 2 of the court mage group, and the magic of the magister 5, indeed
It almost killed her.
But it's all worth it, because...the master is back.
It's nothing else but the true master, her most respected and beloved master.
"Ah...Master." She made a coquettish voice, running her slender fingers across her lower abdomen, and the dragon's tail swayed, as if she was trapped in some kind of poison that she couldn't extricate herself from.
Not far away, Lu En, who was in another cave, suddenly shuddered.
"Wang, are you cold? How about I go light the bonfire?" After Tailin saw it, she seemed to feel that Lu En was cold after his clothes got wet.
"No, it's not that cold. Maybe someone is cursing me behind my back. I always feel cold on my back." Lu En turned his head and glanced back. After making sure there was nothing, he looked at Tailin again and continued to draw on the ground.
He said: "Continuing on from the speculation just now, we think that humans have not launched a large-scale extermination campaign yet. I suspect that they have internal conflicts, or that the main contradiction of humans is not us, we are just an excuse for their struggle."
"But, Wang, even if we are not their main point of conflict, no matter what, even if we are just pretending, our pressure will gradually increase. With all due respect, Wang, with just such a small number of manpower, we will be in trouble in the future.
What is getting more and more sad is that multiple professionals have appeared in the recent enemy. It is difficult for Master Kara and me to continue to maintain the current intensity of the battle." Tailin suggested, this purple-skinned demon guard was very concerned about the situation.
worry.
The orcs were happy as long as they were full and not hungry and no one died, and did not think about the subsequent problems. However, as the temporary commander, Tailin still needed to consider how to continue.
Lu En understood this anxiety, so he explained: "It won't last long. The Palace Mage Group has not been dispatched until now, which proves that humans have no intention of killing us all, and there are no large troops assembled, so I guess then
There won’t be any greater pressure for a while. This doesn’t mean we can relax. We must seize this period of time and escape before humans free their hands.”
"Wang, do you have a plan?" Tailin cheered up.
"It's been there before, why do you think I have to save so much salt?" Lu En pointed to the cave: "I'll tell you the plan first, and you can execute it, but before I actually take action, I still have some things to do.
"
"Yes, please tell me." Ever since she was taught that set of theories, Tailin no longer had the slightest doubt about Lu En's strategic level, and immediately began to listen carefully.
The two continued to communicate until more than an hour later, Kara walked over with an unnatural blush on her face.
"Master, the dry clothes are ready. I have also prepared hot water and food. Are you finished talking?" The dragon maid stepped forward.
"That's almost it. Then Tailin, just do this. I'll change my clothes first, and... there's a prisoner waiting for me." Lu En glanced at Kara, stopped narrating, and followed the dragon maid.
go ahead.
The next thing was the usual thing in the week before this, he took a bath under Carla's service. To be honest, Carla's hands could break gold and iron when tearing people, but they were really tender when they took a bath.
If he hadn't been worried about being stabbed in the back at any time, how could he have withstood this kind of stimulation!
But what makes Lu En feel strange is that in the memory of the old devil he inherited, Carla has never served him so intimately.
It would be better to say that the unlucky demon king clearly had an ordinary master-servant relationship with Kara. Kara was very respectful to him, but obviously kept a distance. He was not like the yandere who would take the initiative to crawl into her bed now.
.
Why did Kara's attitude suddenly become so affectionate after she traveled into the Demon King's body? Moreover, she always called the Demon King "King", but she called herself "Master".
It was strange, but Lu En didn't have a good explanation, and he didn't dare to ask directly, otherwise the soft hands that were rubbing him might instantly turn into sharp dragon claws and give him a chill.
This is not unfounded worry, the unlucky old devil king was really stabbed to death.
"Forget it..." He shook his head and stopped thinking if he couldn't figure it out. Now that everything was ready, it was time to find the person named Nana.
After getting dressed, I walked to the bedside and found a stone clock. The head had already been cut off and could be used as a chair.
Nana's physical strength has almost recovered. The injury is still serious, but it is not life-threatening. It seems that she has also drank the broth that Kara brought to her. Now she is lying on the bed, her eyes are blank, and she is in a daze.
"You saw your savior coming, why didn't you say anything?" Lu En waved his hand and smiled.
"You framed me..." Nana's voice was a little weak, but the good news was that she turned her eyes and looked directly at Lu En.
"You misunderstood." Lu En spread his hands: "I just extended a helping hand to you. You were really hungry at the time, weren't you? As for the people behind you who catch up with you and then misunderstand and frame you, aren't they all human beings?
Something?"
"But -!" Nana wanted to retort, but was interrupted before she could speak.
"But what? No? We met by chance, or do you think I want to do something to you?" Lu En retorted.
Nana was speechless. Indeed, she couldn't imagine what this legendary demon king would seek from her. Even if the other party was in such a desperate state, his maid could easily tear him to pieces.
Seeing that the other party was silent, Lu En sighed and said, "I just have a good heart. I met a child like you and gave you something to eat."
"But what about your companions? Oh, they don't regard you as a companion at all. Your identity is a slave."
Nana suddenly turned over and sat up. The word slave seemed to irritate her.
Kara took a step forward, her fingers hardened and her nails lengthened into sharp claws.
"Don't be so hostile to me. Have I done anything bad? Have I ever invaded humans? No, monsters don't even have slave trade. They are all inventions of humans. I am a victim just like you.
, why are we victims?" After Lu En said this, he stood up, walked to Nana's side, and gently held her hand.
"Because we are monsters, I am a monster, and you have monster blood. This is the reason. For humans, monsters are sin." Lu En's tone was seductive.
"Why should you look at me from the perspective of humans, when humans are obviously the source of your suffering? Just because you were born in the realm of humans?"
"But we are compatriots."
"We are one! Why are humans so wary of you, even tattooing your face, and not treating you as a human being?"
"Why am I willing to lend a helping hand to you as soon as we meet, even risking being discovered to save you?"
"Because you are not human, you are our compatriot!"
Lu En opened his arms and said loudly!
Nana seemed to be shocked, Lu En's words bombarded her ears like a barrage of words, and she was stunned.
"Same... compatriots?" she murmured to herself.
"That's right! My compatriot! Why am I living here? Because humans, they gathered their armies to attack me for their own selfish desires. Why are you like this? Because humans, humans look down on monsters, they are the source of all this!"
Lu En put his hands on the confused Nana's shoulders, "I didn't frame you, but humans. Everything is caused by humans. I saved you. Please believe me. I am the king of monsters, and I will get back on my feet.
, let the monster rise again.”
"Believe me."
Nana was stunned, her mind was a little confused.
But what he said seems to make sense...?
He didn't frame himself, he just gave himself meat and bread.
Judging oneself is done by humans, and killing oneself is also done by humans... From childhood to adulthood, so many things are done by humans.
so……?
Nana raised her head in confusion, as if she wanted to ask for someone's opinion.
There were only Lu En and Kara around. Of course Kara ignored this, so only Lu En answered.
"You have escaped from the clutches of humans. Don't think about that. Eat something and have a good rest. I will come back to you tomorrow morning." Lu En said to her, got up, and left the cave with Kara.
Only Nana was left where she was.
