Chapter 223: The Flame Will Ignite the Orc Empire
With the arrival of spring, farmers in the Orc Empire are about to start spring ploughing.
However, the Orc Empire's Emperor Barumurt hastened preparations for war.
Barumurt is now almost crazy, and the Vatican has also learned of this.
Said they would provide the orc army with the supplies needed for the war.
This means that spring ploughing will proceed normally and the peasants and the nobles will live in peace.
Until one noble did something very stupid.
A noble levied a spring tax on the people of his territory because of their excessive spending during the winter.
This directly caused the people in the territory to collapse.
Years of war had already made the people in this territory miserable, and this so-called spring tax completely overwhelmed them.
The subjects chose to beg for mercy, but blindly begging for mercy would only make the nobles even more violent.
After killing several leaders, the orc nobles set their eyes on a human woman in the territory!
That’s right! It’s a human woman!
The human woman was raped by the noble on the spot, and then, unable to bear the humiliation, she chose to commit suicide by jumping into a well. The woman's mother was angered to death.
The nobles didn't care at all, and the peasants collected the woman's body.
Trying to find a way to collect money to pay the spring taxes.
Both parties thought that the matter was over.
But this woman's family is very unusual.
The human woman's mother was a human being, who was sold by slave traders. However, she was pregnant when she was sold.
Gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
When the boy grew up, he was forced to join the Orc Empire to make a living and became a guardian knight.
In fact, the boy knows that he is a human, but his mother and sister are in the Orc Empire.
The boy wanted to take his mother and sister back to the empire, but his mother was too old...
My mother doesn't want to go back...
The boy stayed in the Orc Empire, but he never participated in the war against the Holy Empire. Instead, he became a princess guardian knight.
Although the salary was low, the boy would send it back home every month.
It can be said that his family is his only concern...
The spring rain fell on the capital of the Orc Empire. The human knight looked at the letter in his hand, and the anger in his heart was almost bursting out.
His only concern was his family, but now the death of his family was in no way unrelated to the orc nobles.
In anger, he decided to take revenge on the Orc Empire.
He is a seventh-level fighting knight.
Barumurt values this human very much because there are very few humans in the Orc Empire.
Moreover, a seventh-level fighting knight is extremely rare.
Looking at the knight's sword hanging on the wall.
The young knight muttered with a blank expression.
"Isn't a knight supposed to protect the weak?
But I can't even protect my own family. Maybe it's just like what the Holy Knight Kuneberg said.
These orcs are just animals that look like humans..."
The young knight arrived outside the princess's bedroom and waited quietly.
He also had to say goodbye to the half-orc princess, who shared the same suffering as him.
The princess's mother was a human woman who was abducted.
As a half-orc, she had never been welcomed by the orcs, but this orc gave the young knight a bite to eat when he was a child.
So the knight naturally became the princess's guardian knight.
But it was time for him to say goodbye to the princess.
In the morning, the knight who had been standing outside the bedroom all night saw the princess just coming out.
"La Hiel? Why are you here?"
As soon as the orc princess opened the door, she saw Lahail outside.
"Your Highness, I am here to say goodbye. From today on, we will be enemies.
Thank you for taking care of me over the years. Of course, I also saved you from suicide several times. We don't owe anyone anything."
After saying this, La Hail wiped the dew off his armor and left without looking back.
The only half-orc princess Doranda was left standing there in a daze.
A small manor in the southern part of the Orc Empire.
La Hail arrives here in disguise.
Looking at the two new graves in the cemetery outside the manor.
The young man who had been away from home for ten years finally returned to the place he cared about.
But what he didn't expect was that he didn't even see his mother and sister for the last time.
Lahail had no way to vent the pain in his heart, and at this time a woman who had been a neighbor of Lahail's mother for many years came over.
After she heard about Lahail's mother and sister, she couldn't help but come to the grave to pay her respects.
But he saw the man in black in front of him.
"you are?"
The woman asked.
"Auntie Bonya, I'm Lahail..."
Lahail took off his cloak.
Revealed his face.
"Are you Little Hyrule?"
The woman smiled happily, but then her expression changed.
He looked at the tombstone in front of him, then looked at Hyrule.
"The matter about your mother and your sister..."
Hyrule forced a smile.
"Auntie Bonya, I understand. I came back to deal with this matter...
And I want to take my mother and sister home..."
After saying this, Hailar began to dig the graves of his mother and sister.
It is called a grave, but in fact it is just the body rolled up with a straw mat and buried underground.
This is the truest portrayal of the humblest people at the bottom...
They don't even deserve a coffin...
Looking at Hyrule's behavior, Bonya opened his mouth and finally sighed.
Looking at the stinking corpse, Hailar shed tears and then lit a fire.
The raging fire devoured the two bodies, erasing bit by bit the last traces of the two bodies left in this world.
The flames caught everyone's attention.
Some farmers rushed over and looked at Hailar, somewhat confused.
Bonia on the side explained Hyrule's identity to everyone.
Everyone was silent, not knowing what to say.
The village chief on the side tried to comfort Hailar.
"Hyrule, your family's affairs... We are peasants, they are nobles, we can't defeat them..."
"Should we give up if we can't win? Should we let them bully us if we can't win? Do we deserve to suffer?"
Hailar directly stumped the village chief with his question, and the surrounding farmers were also stunned.
At this moment, the noble manor owner was rushing here with his men.
As soon as they came, they blamed the farmers.
"What are you doing here? Why don't you go to work? And who are you? If you set fire to my territory, you have to pay for it!"
After hearing this voice, Hyrule stared at the noble.
The nobles suddenly felt as if they were falling into an icy cave.
The next second, Hailar said through gritted teeth.
"My name is Hyrule, and you insulted my sister!"
After hearing this, the noble smiled disdainfully.
"I thought it was that bitch..."
Before the noble finished speaking, a cold light flashed.
The noble suddenly felt his sight leave the ground, the world was spinning, and finally he saw his own body?
Everyone looked at Hailar speechless, and Hailar cut his throat with a sword...
(Good night (T ^ T) No urging for more)
