At night, Lorna seemed to be unable to sleep, so she got up, walked out of the camp alone, and sat down casually on a hillside by the road.

She supported her hands on the ground and looked up at the night sky. The ascites on the hillside were gently tied between her somewhat rough palms. The evening breeze gently blew her light golden hair, revealing her beautiful side face.

"So late, don't you rest?" A calm voice sounded from behind her.

Lorna looked back and saw that it was the lizardman Jill standing under a tree with his hands in his arms.

"Ah." She looked sideways and chuckled: "I can't sleep."

"Yeah." Jill nodded and responded simply, without continuing to say anything, as if he had ended the conversation.

Lorna also turned her head back and looked at the night in the distance.

After a while of silence on the hillside, Jill finally said another sentence.

"Today, I saw that entourage named Chu carrying a badge."

Its speech is always intermittent, because the lizard man's vocal system is still different from that of humans.

"That." Lorna looked into the distance in a daze and said with a faint smile.

"I've discovered it long ago."

She seemed to know what the badge Jill was talking about was, and there was no surprise.

"Then you should know what it represents." Jill's eyes rarely showed some emotions and some helplessness.

It has been in the team for quite some time, so it has some understanding of Lorna, the captain of the team.

She is a very reliable person both in battle and in normal times. But in some cases, she always seems uncool and sensible.

"I know the Heskama family." Lorna said softly.

What does that wolf-headed badge represent? Any adventurer who has some experiences should understand.

The family it represents has many names, such as the Wolf Clan, the Guardian Clan, the Wolf King Clan, etc.

But no matter what title it is, it represents the respect people on the mainland for this clan.

The people of their clan guarded the desolate land in the West almost all their lives to ensure that the continent will not be invaded by wild beasts.

The badges of their clan also became a symbol, a symbol of loyalty that was used to praise until death.

When chatting today, Chu said that there was nothing in her hometown, which confirmed Lorna's guess that there was indeed nothing in that barren land.

"Then you should know that there will be no result between you."

Jill looked at Lorna with his upright pupils. Although he was helpless, he thought it would be better to let Lorna see this clearly earlier.

It is not that the Heskama family makes Lorna unattainable, and with the character of that family, it should not discriminate against civilians.

But as a member of the Heskama family, one thing must be followed. Both men and women must leave behind descendants, and they must inherit and protect the bloodline of the West.

Plus they would never break their oath, so Lorna wasn't a possibility from the beginning.

Jill thought Lorna didn't know this, but Lorna nodded calmly and said.

"Ah, I know this too."

Jill was stunned for a moment, and Lorna's answer surprised it a little.

He didn't understand, since Lorna knew, then why...

"I'm not the same as ordinary people, you know."

Lorna sat on the grass, as if recalling something, and said softly with a smile.

She is indeed different from ordinary people. She likes people of the same gender as her, but this is not something she can choose, isn’t it?

"Because of this, no one has ever accepted my feelings."

Lorna said slowly. At this time, she was completely different from what she usually showed in front of others. She was not so confident or so nervous. She was very inferior and fragile.

Jill remembered the women who Lona had “harassed” during her previous mission.

In fact, Lorna just went up to talk normally, and after spending a while, she expressed some slight love.

But at that time, those women would look at Lorna with strange eyes, and then stubbornly avoid contact with Lorna, and some would even directly terminate the entrusted relationship.

After that, Lorna would always smile and touch her hair, saying oh, it was messed up again, and so on.

Only then did Jill realize that they did not notice what kind of mood Lorna was treated like this at that time. The feelings that were seriously given were treated by others with strange eyes.

She might not care as much as they thought.

"Do you still remember that day, she said she didn't hate me."

Lorna smiled, her voice trembling and choking. In fact, she knew that maybe it was just a casual word for Chu, but for her, this sentence was very important.

"So I want to try it, just want to try it..."

She turned to look at Jill, smiling, with tears in her eyes.

"Try it and chase my love."

Chase for a while, the kind of thing she had no expectations.

······

"Huh." Jill sighed under the tree and said lightly: "Then, whatever you want."

"Yes." Lorna patted her head and smiled carelessly, "Whatever I can do."

"By the way Lorna, among some of our ethnic groups, there is a very primitive way to establish relationships, which is to forcefully tie the confirmed object back to your own cave. Do you want to consider it?"

Well, this method is not uncommon among the primitive lizard humans, but it is obvious that this is not suitable for civilized society, and Jill is just a joke.

Kolona actually thought about it seriously and asked seriously.

"Well, how much chance of success do you think there is?"

······

The wind was blowing on the hillside. Neither Lorna nor Jill, who were discussing how to "kill" the bill, noticed that on a tree not far away, the first half of the night was lying between the trunks.

She opened her eyes and looked at the staggered leaves in front of her without making any sound.

She heard Jill and Lorna's conversation, but she hoped that she would not hear it, but who made her hearing several times that of ordinary people. Of course, what they talked about later was automatically ignored by her because there was no possibility at all.

However, since it was her mistake, she had to find a way to make up for it.

As for how to make up for it, she still needs to think about it. First of all, it is impossible to make Lorna misunderstand anymore. She has to make things clear, otherwise it will only make things more and more complicated.

Although she is not from the Heskama family, there will definitely be no result between her and Lorna.

Secondly, she had to think of a way to express it as tactfully as possible. If it was too straightforward, even she would know that it was not good. She had to find a suitable time and place.

At first, she felt a little ache in her head. She would rather fight ten more wars in the wasteland than think about these things. But obviously, she didn't have much room for choice.

Can't, are you accepted?

Night on the quiet road.
