"Sir Lothar......"

As soon as she heard Marlon's voice, Vera looked a little flustered; She was still wearing the apron she wore when preparing dinner for the refugees in the camp, and her hands were somewhat restrained in the pockets on both sides of the apron, and she greeted Malone in embarrassment.

"Hmm...... You freaked out during the day today, didn't you? Is Mary okay? ”

Marlon smiled at Vera, and although he didn't know why the young woman was so nervous when she saw her, he tried to talk about some light-hearted topics in order to ease some of Vera's feelings.

Although seeing Maria's excited appearance beside Rubos, Malone guessed that the incident of the wolf attack during the day did not leave much shadow in the little girl's heart, but he still asked with concern.

"It's okay...... Although Mary was scared then, she ...... now Thanks to you, Sir Lothar, you saved everyone again. ”

Vera looked at her daughter, who was having fun climbing up and down on Rubos, with a charming smile on her face, and then said gratefully to Malone.

Vera didn't know much about why the giant wolf who led the pack of wolves besieging the refugees became Sir Lothar's pet, but that didn't stop her from feeling inspired by the magic of Marlon - the refugee team could meet such a guardian, of course, thanks to the Light, which was what Vera really thought.

"This ...... Ahem......"

Malone coughed twice in embarrassment and looked away.

Vera may not be much older than Althea, but between her eyebrows there is a maturity that Althea is far less than Althea; The smile just now made Ma Long's heart tremble.

"Maria! I'm going back with my mother, Sir Lothar still has something to do, don't bother people for too long! ”

After Maria and Althea had been playing with Rubos for a while, Vera walked up to them, first glanced at Rubos vigilantly, and after seeing that the latter was lazy and didn't care about herself, Vera bent down slightly, took her daughter's fleshy little hand and said.

"Oh......"

Although Maria hadn't had enough fun, she had always listened to her mother, and when she heard Vera say this, she obediently pulled her mother and walked towards the center of the camp.

"Maria, come play with me tomorrow!"

Althea stood up and waved goodbye to the little girl from afar.

"Goodbye! Sister Altea, goodbye...... Sir Lothar! ”

This time, Maria did not forget to say goodbye to Marlon.

"Hee-hee, Maria is so cute...... If...... I would be happy to have such a lovely daughter in the future. ”

Althea walked up to Marlon with her hands behind her back, glancing at Marlon who was stupidly waving goodbye to Maria, muttering meaningfully.

"What?"

Malone didn't hear the last half of Althea's words, and asked suspiciously.

"I didn't ...... Nothing, I mean...... Malone, don't you think Rubes is a little lazy? Is it ...... Hungry? ”

Althea blushed and quickly diverted the subject—it was barely enough to pluck up the courage to say the same thing, if it was to say both...... It's so embarrassing!

"Really? I don't think so...... But you're right, Rubles! Go find something to eat yourself! ”

Malone glanced at the giant wolf lying on the ground, and then gave orders.

Although Marlon and Rubes could not communicate freely after using "Tame the Beast", Rubes was able to understand a simple command like this.

Roubleus, commanded by his master, jumped nimbly and trotted out of the camp, leaping over the simple wooden fence outside the camp and heading into the depths of the twilight forest.

Marlon knew that Rubes was not lazy, but he was unwilling to participate in the boring play of Althea and Mary, the older and younger girls.

However, Malone also knew that Rubes was definitely going to eat meat, and now that there was no extra food for him in the refugee camp, it was better to let him go out and find food on his own.

Roubles was sent away, and Marlon and Althea also walked to the east side of the camp, and as last night, the two of them were still partners in the vigil.

Throughout the day, apart from a little frightening at the moment when the wolves first appeared, the refugee team was not harassed for the rest of the journey.

It's no wonder, after all, this is already the territory of the wolves, and there shouldn't be any other large-scale predators besides the wolves; And the wolves ......

Their head wolf followed Malone like a dog, and although they couldn't figure out why, they certainly wouldn't attack the refugee camp again.

"Marlon, are we almost in Nightshade?"

Sitting down near the camp's fence, Althea asked Marlone.

"It should be soon, but I don't know exactly when."

Malone shook his head, neither Sir Lothar's memories nor his own knowledge of the Twilight Forest and Nighttown from the game were enough for him to analyze the time it would take for the refugee team to reach their destination.

"Flutter!"

Although she didn't get the answer to the question she wanted, Althea couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The girl had always felt that Marlon was an all-powerful man—you see, he had slain all the orc armies that had attacked the refugee ranks, and he was covered in blood and on the verge of death, and he stood up alive again; With a few soldiers, he dared to storm the camp of hundreds of gnolls, and even the siege of the wolves was defused by him in a magical way.

But Marlon, who is so omnipotent, doesn't know when the refugee team will arrive in Nighttown, and Althea thinks it's funny, at least, to shorten the distance between herself and Marlon a little more.

"That'...... Let's start the vigil! Today, Ma Long, you can't replace me halfway, I must hold on until the end of the first half of the night! ”

Seeing that Marlon was a little embarrassed because of his laughter, Althea quickly pursed her lips and said with a forced smile.

"Really? Can you persevere? ”

Marlon looked at Althea suspiciously.

"Don't look down on people!"

Althea straightened her full chest and said proudly - she was determined to be the commander of the refugee militia squad...... Girl!

"Ahem, okay......"

Malone looked away in embarrassment, deciding that when he arrived in Nighttown, he must find a way to get Althea to replace this tight leather armor.

Althea thought that Marlon had been persuaded by herself, so she happily pushed Marlon to the ground, forced him to close his eyes, and began to sleep before confidently starting her vigil the next night.
