140: Haixu

The Lords returned to the Village. The Orcs who were guarding the village noticed the Lords. They already had instructions from Azekiel that these were his trusted people. The lords were allowed inside, and they were taken to the house where Azekiel was staying. 

Lia stood at the entrance of the Village with her arms folded. She didn't follow the Lords inside since she could already decipher everything from their expressions. They hadn't seen any army.

Raphael was still inside the house with Azekiel and Leor. He was keeping an eye on Leor, who was just sitting in the corner, seemingly lost in some thought. 

She looked really defeated and not very happy. Then again, after what happened to her, how could someone even look happy? She just sat in silence, watching Azekiel sleep. 

Thanks to the protection of the Mark of Servitude, Azekiel could sleep in the same room as Leor without having to worry about being attacked.
