"Why bring women and children? We don't need women and children to fight. They should stay in a safe place." Connor glanced at Junice and Aliana, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Don't worry, sir, they are all very powerful warriors." Reiner replied seriously.
He looked up at Aliana.
This guy was like a potato, taking small steps and following closely behind. His short stature and childish face made him look like a real kid.
Because it was her first time out for an adventure, she was happily humming a little tune and jumping up and down for no apparent reason while walking.
I really can't tell that she is eighteen years old. She is obviously a child.
Aliana looked up and met Reiner's eyes.
She asked puzzledly, "Why are you staring at me?"
Reiner replied, "He said you were as short as a potato."
Aliana puffed out her cheeks and poked Reiner's waist with her staff angrily: "You are the potato! You must have said that yourself."
In the end, she found out.
If she were as stupid as Martina, she might just believe it.
Reiner instructed, "I suggest you drink more milk."
"No."
"Drinking it will make you taller and more feminine. Then people won't call you a child anymore."
Aliana suddenly became interested: "Really?"
"Nonsense! When have I ever lied to you? Starting from the day after tomorrow, I will buy you a glass of milk every morning. In exchange, you need to teach me the magic of the elves."
This glorious barrier is so useful. Maybe Aliana has some even more powerful magic hidden in her body.
I must get more stuff from her while she is still interested in the outside world.
Just as Reiner was lost in thought, Aliana suddenly stretched out her staff and gently hit his waist twice.
Her cheeks were slightly red, and her face was full of innocence: "I... am I not feminine?"
"Don't doubt it, not at all." Reiner touched her head. "You're just a child, why do you need femininity?"
"Reiner!" Furious, Aliana raised her staff to hit him.
Reiner quickened his pace slightly and followed Connor: "Sir, what are your plans?"
Connor looked confused. "Plan? Of course, to harass the orc tribe and make them pay for what they did yesterday."
"What about more detailed steps? For example, where should we dive in, where should we retreat after achieving our goal, and what should we do if we encounter other problems along the way..."
Connor spread his hands and said, "There's no further details. If we're discovered, we'll fight. If we can't win, we'll retreat."
Reiner turned his head and looked at Junice behind him, and they both fell silent.
After a while, he asked again: "Does Lord Ai know about this?"
"Of course, I told him about it yesterday, and he agreed to it." Connor nodded affirmatively.
Reiner fell into deep thought...
"Sir, can you let me take a look at the map? I want to see where the orc tribe is, or maybe I can provide some better suggestions." Reiner said softly.
"certainly!"
Connor handed over a cowhide map.
Reiner unfolded it and examined it carefully.
This map takes Cannon as the center and marks out the surrounding environment one by one.
The forest south of Cannon, which is Aliana's home, is marked as the territory of the elves.
The large forest in the north was marked as the territory of the orcs.
At the same time, the specific coordinates of the tribe were also marked with small black dots.
