Chapter 1: After waking up

The 'girl' seemed to have had a long dream.

Many sad things happened in the dream, the brother left, the sister-in-law was gone, the father was taken away, and the mother was ...... In tears, I kept telling her "I'm sorry".

Why is it so sad? She loves her mother, she doesn't want to see her crying, she loves her family, and she doesn't want to see any family leave.

However, the family members are gone.

She felt that she was the only one left in the world, lonely, lonely, helpless...... She yelled and made a fuss, and no one else came. So she was dazed, desperate, and curled up on her own, weeping sadly, forming a thick shell that covered the outside.

How long has it been like this?

Finally, there was a trace of warmth, a touch of light, that broke the deep dark shell and warmed the cold and lonely world.

Someone found her, and this person gave her a strange and familiar feeling.

He picked her up and comforted her, but she desperately tried to open her eyes and see the man, but her eyelids seemed to be blocked by tears because she had been crying for too long.

"Welcome home, Chenyang. A gentle voice said.

You...... Who is it?

......

............

The vision gradually became clearer, and the black-haired 'girl' on the snow-white 'bed' opened her eyes and looked around blankly, only to see a familiar black-haired young figure dozing off the side of the 'bed'.

As if sensing the movement on the 'bed', the young man suddenly woke up, 'rubbed' and 'rubbed' his eyes, turned his head to look at the face of the black-haired 'girl', and suddenly 'revealed' a look of surprise.

"Chenyang, are you awake!?"

"Brother Zhuoyang?"

"It's me!" Burning Sun leaned over to the 'girl' and smiled, "I've always been worried about you, and I've been thinking about what to do since you and your mother were forcibly taken away by the orcs...... Fortunately, you're fine, Chongyang rescued you!"

"Chongyang ...... Third brother?" The little 'girl' who had just woken up, her thoughts were still a little 'confused' and 'chaotic', and she tilted her head.

"Yes, it's your third brother, he was still here guarding you half a day ago, until he was dragged away by Her Majesty the 'Female' Emperor. ”

Zhuoyang remembered the scene half a day ago, and his expression was slightly stiff.

It was really "dragged away"! Her Majesty the 'Female' Empress and Lord Flame Demon seriously knocked out the magical fire mage and dragged it away.

"Third brother, you will definitely be a strict wife in the future, hmm......"

"Brother Zhuoyang?"

"No...... I didn't say anything, anyway, it's really good that you're okay. The young man stretched out his hand and gently stroked the head of the 'girl', revealing a deep sense of love and pity.

“...... What about my sister-in-law?"

"She's still in Sun City...... No, it's already been taken to the human palace. At the mention of his wife, Zhuoyang's smile softened a little, "My sister-in-law gave birth to a little niece and nephew for you, called Xueyang, you must see her." ”

"Hmm!" Chenyang nodded vigorously, and his heart gradually filled with warmth.

That's the case, the person who saved himself is the third brother, so it feels strange and familiar!

"Brother...... Second brother, where is the third brother of Chongyang now?" she asked, looking up.

"Let's be taken back to the Imperial Palace. Zhuoyang's face sank slightly, "Your third brother...... After a big battle, I was already injured and not healed, and I was injured and wounded, and now I have to receive deep treatment. ”

Chenyang heard the words and showed a worried look.

"It's okay, your third brother is very strong, stronger than everyone, and he will be fine. Zhuoyang comforted.

But it can be seen that even he can't convince himself of this comfort.

After all, not long ago, Chongyang really "died".

"I want to go and see the third brother, is it okay?" the 'girl' child asked weakly as she looked at the young man's face.

Zhuoyang hesitated for a moment. Chenyang's pleading expression and his own mood of wanting to confirm Chongyang's condition collided violently, and it was difficult to suppress it.

"Let's try!" he finally gritted his teeth.

So, the black-haired young man found a wheelchair, let the frail 'girl' sit on the wheelchair, and spread a soft 'wool' blanket to keep the temperature. Then, the two set off bravely

If you want to visit Chongyang, you must first obtain permission, and in order to obtain permission, you must find Her Majesty the 'Female' Empress of the Empire.

The young man pushed the wheelchair 'female' child forward, and inquired about the whereabouts of Her Majesty the 'female' Empress along the way, and an Imperial official who hurried by with a large pile of documents told them that His Majesty had just gone to the military camp where the orc captives were received.

The extremely large number of orc captives is indeed one of the primary problems for the 'empress' to deal with.

The scorching sun pushes the morning sun and leaves the palace castle and heads to the camp that has been set up in a makeshift structure that now serves as a place for orc captives.

Before you could see the camp itself, you could see groups of Phoenix Army and Imperial Army, standing guard and patrolling, on heavy alert.

"Sir, no one in the captive camp is allowed to approach except for the troops and personnel designated by Her Majesty the 'Lady' Empress. One of the Phoenix Army guards, in response to Scorching Sun's inquiry, said, "Please don't embarrass us. ”

Burning Sun and Chenyang glanced at each other.

"Then we won't go in...... Again, is Her Majesty the 'Female' still inside?"

"This subordinate doesn't know. ”

Zhuoyang was a little helpless, and was about to change places to inquire, but suddenly saw a blonde man walking out of the direction of the camp.

"Gaiasis!" the black-haired youth called out happily, but the blonde orc looked absent-minded and walked straight away.

"Hey, Gaia!" Scorching Sun had to rush up to stop him, and the blonde orc came to his senses, "Big brother...... No, it's the scorching sun. ”

"What are you thinking so engrossed that someone told you to not notice?" Zhuo Yang asked casually.

However, Gaiasis was silent, apparently not wanting to say more.

The human side won the war, and Gaiasis, who was in a complicated mood as an orc, was probably the most unhappy one in the Phoenix Army, but Chongyang, the only one who could talk to him deeply, was now being treated.

Looking at his silent appearance, even if he was not very sensitive to certain issues, or the burning sun that he deliberately ignored, he couldn't help but have a strange meaning in his heart, but immediately, he suppressed this strange thought.

Although Gaiasis is an orc, Chongyang is extremely trusted, and as the second brother, he trusts Chongyang, so he naturally has to trust Gaiasis.

"It's okay not to say it, but if you can, it's best not to let anyone else see it. The black-haired young man said sincerely, "I know that all kinds of questions about the orcs make you uneasy, but just as they trust you in Chongyang, you should trust them as well. ”

“...... I understand. The blonde orc replied in a low voice, "But...... There are some things that can be solved by trust alone. ”

The air around them was 'overcast' and cold, and the two sides fell into an indescribable silence.

"I can't do that...... I won't say anything, what I want to ask you is, did you see Her Majesty the 'Female' Emperor in the camp, is she still there?"

"Her Majesty the 'Female' Emperor...... Roseali's words had just left, as if she was going to a meeting with the commanders of the Phoenix Army and the Imperial Army. Gaiasis recalled.

"It's another headache. ”

Zhuo Yang really felt the hard work of being a superior, and in addition to the large number of foreign captives, there were also internal contradictions of his own clan that needed to be resolved. The 'empress' of the empire, who took office before the war, really carried an incomparably huge burden on her shoulders.

The place where the meeting took place was at the command office of the palace front, and Zhuoyang knew that it was there, and after saying goodbye to the blonde orc, he wanted to push Chenyang over, but he was stopped again.

"I'll go with you too. I just talked to the leader of the Orc Army, and there is something to ...... I would like to discuss with Her Majesty the 'Female' Emperor. Gaiasis walked over to the two of them.

Chenyang had been looking at the big man with curiosity, and Gaia had also looked at the little 'girl' with a slightly complicated gaze.

"Whatever you want. "The scorching sun is noncommittal.

Two people turned into three people and walked all the way to the command office.

On the way, they meet Daniel and Aya, Rei Yue and Sue, and the civet cat Xiaojin wandering around.

"Are you going to find the 'Female' Majesty, we have just come over there, and it is not recommended that you go over now, because it seems that there is a lot of noise, and Brother Renault and Sister Yasi are very angry. Daniel said.

When Zhuoyang inquired about the situation with the boy, the young 'girl' Aya was very interested in Chenyang, and later Lianyue and Su also joined in, expressing all kinds of love to the 'girl' child, which made Chenyang a little overwhelmed.

"Ahhh......h I can't stand it, Xiao Chenchen's face is so cute! I didn't expect that guy in Chongyang to have such a cute ***, so envious, hey, that one called Zhuoyang, let Xiao Chen go to me, I'll take it home and raise it well!"

"Don't say stupid things, you stupid 'girl'. ”

Su cast a cold gaze at the young 'female' companion of the Phoenix Army, and punished him with a sharp knife before causing more trouble, and the latter made a strange "Karma" sound after being stabbed, and fell into a state of hard stun.

"Oops...... It's a good relationship. Liyue watched this scene with a smile from the side, and Xiao Jin leaned on her shoulder at some point, looking lazy.

Zhuoyang hesitated to find someone now. Gaiasis remained silent, but the warmth of the commotion in front of him seemed to lighten a little, and the expression on his face softened a little.

"It would be nice if the eldest brother was here too. ”

For a variety of reasons, the blonde orcs would love to see the magical fire mage now, but ......

"What are you doing here?"

The 'woman' wearing a pale 'color' skirt, flowing blond hair, and a cold 'glamorous' expression appeared in front of everyone.

"Roseali...... 'Queen' Your Majesty!?" the people were startled.

"Your Majesty, the meeting is over?" Retsuki was the first to react.

"Now it's a pause. Roseali glanced at the 'girl' in the white dress, "Just setting the general tone of the treatment, it will take two or three days to argue, and there are as many details as a mountain." ”

"Of course, most of the difficulties are on the side of the Imperial Army, and the Phoenix Army is quite efficient...... It is already an extremely large force, but the organizational flexibility is a little unbelievably high, should it be said that there are many talents, and the high-level people are talented? Or is that fool actually unexpectedly a charismatic and wise leader?"

Her Majesty the Imperial 'Woman' was in a state of confusion, as if she was talking to the people present, and as if she was muttering to herself.

The crowd was speechless. The one who can openly say that the magical fire mage is a fool in front of the 'elite' troops of the Phoenix Army, that is, the 'female' majesty in front of him.

It is true that the leader of the third brother is a little unreliable, but ...... Your Majesty the 'Female' Emperor, you seem to be similar, are you really a couple? Zhuoyang complained silently in his heart.

Neither Chongyang nor Rosyali have publicly admitted the relationship between the two, but others have already seen such an obvious thing.

"It's hard to accept that you're losing to him as a leader...... That's it. Roseali sighed, looked at the crowd in front of her, and then her gaze fell on the black-haired 'girl' in the wheelchair.

Chenyang also looked at the beautiful 'woman' in front of him with bright eyes, who was said to be the 'empress' of the empire.

"Are you alright?" asked Rose suddenly to the 'girl'.

"Hey...... I'm still ...... Ok......"

"That person is desperate to get you back, you must recuperate and recover your health. "The 'female' queen instructed lightly.

"Hmm...... Hmm!" Chenyang knew who she was talking about, nodded heavily, and then plucked up his courage under the signal of the scorching sun.

"Your Majesty...... I want ...... Is it okay to meet the third brother?" the 'girl' weakly offered to go, begging for permission with a blank eye.

"No, I can't. "A neat refusal.

"Uh...... Woo......"

"Just kidding. Her Majesty the 'Female' Emperor suddenly smiled slyly at the stunned little 'Female' child.

"If you want to see it, you can see it, but I'm afraid you can't 'communicate' if you see it. Roseali's face darkened slightly, "That idiot ......"

Before the words fell, suddenly a strange cracking sound faintly came, like the sound of something breaking at a long distance.

Everyone present changed color at the same time, and then a sharp alarm sounded in the front-line camp.

"A powerful spatial 'wave' was detected, and it is estimated that the source is five miles before the imperial capital, and it is confirmed that it is the 'gate' of the Beast Emperor...... Repeat, it's the Beast Emperor's 'Gate'!"
