Chapter 135: Hardships After the War

Chapter 135 Hardships after the war

When Kasha went out, my mind was a little blurry, and the overdraft battle with Beryl had made my current situation very bad, and the thought that Sara was fine, and that most of them were fine, made my heart feel relieved, and a tiredness and sleepiness that made my whole body weak and weak came to my heart, and my eyes soon became lazy.

When I was groggy and about to fall asleep, Veras's petite figure appeared in the doorway, and she was holding something to eat.

"Adult ......"

The beautiful voice penetrated into my ears, and I was fascinated by her eyes, watching her gradually approach, probably because my brain was dizzy for a moment, or I was attracted by the beautiful voice, I actually hugged the figure leaning over, and hugged her slender waist tightly. (Because I'm sitting on the bed).

"Huh......?"

Veras, who was suddenly struck by me, exclaimed, and the thing in her hand "snapped" and fell, making a dull crashing sound.

After the sound of the landing fell silent, the whole room suddenly fell silent, and only the heartbeat of the fawn "plopping" echoed.

"Veras......" I muttered confusedly.

"Big ...... My lord, I ......."

There was a hint of urgency in Veras's weak voice, and her hands could clearly feel that her delicate waist had gradually softened from the stiffness just now, and it was just the sound of her heartbeat coming from the ears that were attached to her towering breasts. It's getting more and more intense.

"Veras, I'm sorry......"

Holding the warm jade-like body, I said what was in my heart in a daze.

"Hey... Ay...... Hey......? ”

Things didn't seem to be going in the direction of blushing and heartbeat as she imagined, and Veras couldn't help but let out another suspicious snort, and at the same time secretly spat herself: Veras, Veras, how can you have such lustful thoughts.

But. The adults didn't do anything wrong, so why apologize to civilians like me? Is it because they couldn't save us? And feeling guilty?

Thinking of this, Veras's hot love mixed with admiration and worship seemed to overflow from her heart, what a gentle and kind adult, obviously he has the strength that he can only look up to forever, but he feels so close and warm. She couldn't help but put her hands on her hands and gently hugged her head in her arms.

"My lord, why do you apologize? On the contrary, we are useless civilians, causing trouble for adults, not only did we not help in the battle, but almost let the adults fall to death, shouldn't we apologize? ……”

With that firm chin, gently rub his hair. In normal times, she would never be so bold.

"Woo~~"

I wanted to say something, but my consciousness was getting more and more blurred, especially the warm and sweet smell that emanated from Veras's arms, like breast milk, as if it were a stimulant of sleepiness. It calmed my mind instantly, and I just wanted to lean on it and sleep well.

Veras would be a good mother in the future, that was my last thought before I went to bed.

Actually, the infatuated Veras didn't know that what I wanted to express was not the apology that poured out for not being able to save them, after all, I had done my best at the time and had a clear conscience.

I felt guilty for the moment when I knew Sarah was safe, even if it was only for a moment. I'm so happy. So much so that even the grief caused by Veras's death almost forgot me. I even had the idea that "everyone else doesn't matter, as long as Sara is okay", although selfishness is human nature, and I have nothing to blame for this thought, but whenever I recall the scene of Veras's death, and then think about my selfish thoughts at that moment, I can't help but feel a wave of apologies.

This is the truest thought in my heart, and through the tiredness that I had just had, I boldly confessed it to Veras, but I didn't expect her to misinterpret it, is this a beautiful misunderstanding.

Veras explained intermittently, trying to dispel my misinterpreted apologies, but after a while, she noticed the sound of even breathing in her arms, and she was slightly stunned before realizing that the person she had comforted had already fallen asleep.

Really, obviously people tried so hard to explain, but the adults fell asleep by themselves, she wanted to complain, but found that she couldn't complain at all, it was better to complain, it was more appropriate to say that it was a little sweet coquettishness.

Adults are like children.

She lowered her head, gently looked at the face that was clinging to her arms, and then courageously poked it lightly with her green jade fingers, showing a doting and gentle smile on her face.

I wanted him to lie down, but Veras found that the hands, even when she was asleep, were so tightly clasped - there was really no way, she complained sweetly, and when she saw the sleeping face in her arms, she couldn't help but be very happy and proud.

There's really no way to take adults, there's no way, it's like this, I can only do this...... She thought a little messily in her mind, and then gently climbed into bed, slowly lay down, like a mother who slept with the child in her arms, covered the quilt, and then raised her head slightly, looking at the sleeping face in her arms.

My lord, Veras had a dream that day, oh, how anxious was the adult at that time, was he anxious about me? I'm really happy, even though I'm dead, I'm happy and satisfied......

She gently touched the hair of the man in her arms, and in the dim light, the quiet face exuded a dazzling smile as it had then.

……

I slept for two days and one night, and of course, this was what Veras told me after waking up, and when I woke up, I felt that my body had recovered a lot. At least I'll be able to get out of bed and walk, and maybe escape from a few of the Fallen Demons.

Although it was a shame for me to have such a comfortable thought even in the face of hundreds of Sinking Demons, I did feel happy from the bottom of my heart, and it seemed that I was really similar to Veras in this regard, and they were both very easily satisfied.

Even the bones are already itching me with sleep. Naturally, I couldn't choose to stay in bed and eat and drink, when I thought so. And when he was about to go out to take a look, an unexpected person walked in.

Akara the blind nun?

What is she doing here, is it possible that Camp Rog has been occupied by Beryl, and she has come here to take refuge? No, let's not mention that Belier didn't resurrect so quickly, just the two BTs of Farah and Kashya, either of them would be enough to kill it in an instant.

But. The confusion in my heart was quickly answered, Akara was just here to inspect the village, although this monster attack, a very detailed battle report has been listed, but as the head of the entire Rogue camp, it is still necessary for Akara to personally come out and carefully inspect it, this is also the so-called leader personally went to the countryside to condole the tune, it is really worthy of being a politician.

And today. She happened to be in the village of Vitas, and if I slept one more day, she might be gone, and it was really time to wake up.

"Wu, this battle is very good."

Akara said with that kind smile, yes. I guess Kashya and Farah have already explained my situation clearly, and I'm afraid she knows more than I do.

"Hehe, Lord Akara, I can't afford to say this, look at what I look like now." I flicked my arm weakly.

"Hehe, don't be discouraged, Wu, for newcomers, your appearance is already incomparable, as long as you properly strengthen your willpower in the future. I dare to assert. You'll definitely be the most powerful warrior Camp Rog has ever had. ”

"What was the outcome of this monster attack? Ah, of course. I'm just curious, if there's anything inconvenient, forget it......"

After chatting with Akara for a few words, I asked curiously.

"Ah, there's nothing to hide about that." Akara still has a smiling face, and it seems that the politicians in Rog's camp are quite open-minded.

"There are 10 villages attacked by monsters this time, and the total number of soldiers killed in the battle is 986, including 743 soldiers, 221 mercenaries, and 22 transferred, and even more injured......" Akara read a series of numbers with a little sadness.

"Then, the stinking crow's sneak attack, a total of 1,139 people were captured in 10 villages, of which 983 were rescued by Farah and Kashya, and as for the rest of the people...... "Akara speaks for itself, she is not like Kashya's appetite to play tricks on others.

"That's ......"

I lowered my head and groaned, although the number seems not small, but I don't have any touch in my heart, that's of course, not to mention a war-torn world like the Dark Continent, even if it is the original world, hearing how many thousands of people died in the typhoon and tsunami, I'm afraid there won't be many people who are sad, human beings are like this, and there is always a little indifference to the disasters that they have not been able to witness.

"Which village ......died, uh, I mean, which village was the best in this battle?" I was a little ashamed of the questions I asked, but at such times, I cared about them.

However, this number makes me very curious, remembering that the casualties in Vitas Village had reached 144 before I left, and after I left, there may still be small casualties, and judging from the number of Accala, the casualty rate of our Vitas Village is still above average?!

I thought to myself that I had worked hard enough to destroy the Blood Ravens and the most threatening cripples before the war, that Bisu Bosu was the only one for Sister Sharna, and that Druff's command skills were remarkable, and that even if we weren't the best in Vitas Village, we wouldn't have been able to achieve such a result.

"It's no wonder to you, the village of Vitas is already very good, and it is the one with the fewest casualties among the villages of the similar plains." As for the problem of my youth and vigor, Akara naturally does not blame.

"Plains?" I noticed a peculiar word in Acalari.

"It's the ground, the plains. Among the 10 villages this time, the Haruru Village and the Leilan tribe are all located on the high ground, so they simply shoveled out a layer of the high ground outside the village to form a steep slope terrain, as long as the mage uses ice magic to smooth the entire slope, those stupid monsters will not be able to climb up at all. So, both villages ended the battle with less than 50 casualties......"

Akara explained to me with a smile. It dawned on me that it wasn't that we were not good, but that those two villages had taken advantage of their geographical advantages.

"By the way, what about Beryl? Everyone seems to already know that Belier has appeared, and there is no cause of any disturbance, right? Didn't the Third World react much? ”

I can understand that Belier didn't cause any disturbances, after all, the place where we appear here is just a projection of Belier. The real Belier is still the third world, and the psychology of the mountain emperor is still relatively easy to understand, but for high-level people like Akara, the appearance of Belier is something they must worry about.

"It's okay, Wu, you don't have to worry about that......" Akara said with a sigh.

"Hey. It doesn't matter if you tell you, according to reliable information, this time Belier came to the Dark Continent from hell, it doesn't seem to be to deal with us, you know, the four demon kings and the three demon gods of hell have been fighting among themselves. I think the main reason why Belyl came to the Dark Continent is probably for this! Of course, it is not ruled out that Belier deliberately released the fog to mislead us, but it doesn't matter what, if Hell is really determined to occupy the Third World, then as long as the five have already descended on the Dark Continent - the three major demon gods plus the other two demon kings, as long as they unite, it will be more than enough, and now there is not much more than one in Dobeyl, and one in less Belyl is not much...... Ay...... I'd better leave it to the angels for a headache......"

I can understand Akara's feelings. Probably this is the so-called feeling that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water. The fate of the weak who are sandwiched between the two strong is probably the same. It's hard for them as leaders.

"I'm more worried about the future of Camp Rogge than I'm worried about it." Akara changed the topic and said with a headache.

"Isn't the war over? And with Kasha and Farah here, what is there to worry about in the future. I asked curiously.

"Wu, the war is not as simple as you think, you only see the victory of this battle, and the casualties, but you don't see the hidden dangers behind it......" Akara looked at me and shook his head with a wry smile, after all, he was still too young.

"Huh?" With a puzzled look, I waited for Akara's answer.

"Let's talk about the attrition of this battle first." Akara sighed heavily, as if the words had touched her sore spot.

"The tens of thousands of adventurers who participated in this battle, and the problems of eating and drinking were all provided by the Rogue camp."

As soon as this sentence came out, I immediately understood that it was logistics, why didn't I think of it? I've also read military novels in many places.

"In terms of grain transportation, because there is an inventory, it is not a big problem, the problem is that last year's harvest was not very good, so the consumption of tens of thousands of adventurers in the past few days is not a small number for the Rogue camp."

"Besides, tens of thousands of adventurers can't participate in the battle in vain, we have promised a long time ago that all the warriors who participate in the battle can be paid, although this kind of remuneration may not be anything in the eyes of the full-time people, but for those soldiers and even mercenaries, it is very necessary and has to pay, and the families of the nearly a thousand fallen warriors have to give more subsidies, which is like a big blood draw for the Rog camp......"

"The first few problems are not difficult to solve, and one of the strictest problems is that because of the assembly and attack of the monsters, many civilians have not caught up with the planting season, and the loss of livestock is not small, which means that the harvest of the Rogge camp this year will be reduced by at least 40%, which is the biggest hidden danger......"

After such careful calculations by Akara, even I found the problem of strictness.

"If you knew this was the case, wouldn't you have asked Kasha and Farah to do something in the first place?"

"Hehe, wouldn't that be meaningless? Although we have suffered a lot of losses in this battle, it will be a big test to get through it, but we have gained a lot and I think it is completely worth it. Akara said with a meaningful smile.

"My lord, you must have a reason for saying that." I never doubted Acala's wisdom, and since she said it was worth it, I had nothing to say.

"By the way, I still have a lot of gold coins here, and I can't use them up anyway, so I can take some out if I need them, although it probably won't help much." I thought of the mountains of gold in my inventory and storage boxes, which I couldn't use up anyway, so I could take them out for disaster relief and make some contributions, so as not to get moldy inside.

"Hehe, don't worry, there will be a time when you will contribute to the entire Rogue camp in the future." Acala's smile made me a little creepy.

"As for the gold coins, let's talk about it then, if it is really not enough, then I, an old woman, can only be cheeky to borrow some from you full-time people."

After a few more chats with Akara, she saw that I had not fully recovered, and advised me to rest for a few more days, and I didn't bother much, plus there was still something to do, so after a while, she left under the protection of several soldiers.
