My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

"What?" Arati looked at Orson in surprise. "The tribe was burned down?"

"Yes, that's right." Orson nodded and added, "But I saw that the food in their granary was intact at the entrance of the tribe and was not burned by the fire. I think we can organize a group of people to take the food back now, which can also alleviate the food crisis of the tribe."

“……”When Arati heard this, he looked at Orson deeply.

The two looked at each other and understood each other's feelings.

"Thank you, Mr. Edward." Arati said this and bowed to Orson.

"It's okay, it's just a small favor. If you don't go, someone else will take the supplies away, so hurry up."

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Arati quickly called the women in the village and notified the young men who were hunting outside to move the food quickly.

Orson also brought Lena to the gate of the orc tribe.

Looking at the mountain of food at the door, Lena showed a look of surprise.

"Wow! Big Brother, there is so much food. It feels like it will be enough for us to eat for a while!"

"Yeah." Orson smiled upon hearing this. "These foods are enough for you to tide over the difficulties of the land reclamation period for the time being."

"But..." At this time, Lena showed a puzzled look. "Brother, why is this tribe burned down, but the food is still standing at the door? Shouldn't it have been snatched away by the people from the burned tribe?"

"Maybe..." Orson thought for a moment, and then said, "Maybe the man who burned down the tribe didn't need so much food. He thought that instead of giving the food to those who bully the weak, it would be better to give it to more self-reliant orcs like you, Lena."

"Wow! The person who did that must be very good! He's like an angel."

"Yes, maybe, maybe it is the incarnation of Limusa, the lord of all beasts. He saw that his people were living such a miserable life, so he sent this gift to his people." Orson used a more romantic excuse and made up a beautiful lie.

"Yeah!" Lena nodded, then put her hands together on her chest and closed her eyes.

"Great God, great Lord of all beasts Limusa, thank you for giving us food, thank you for giving us life, we will obey your will and live well."

Looking at Lena who was pretending to pray seriously, Orson smiled.

Then, Lena opened her eyes.

At this time, other people in the tribe also rushed here. They looked at the ready-made food and carts, and they were all ecstatic.

The food here is much more than what they had stored before, enough for them to get through the difficult times and even allow them to stop living so frugally.

For the orcs here, this is simply a dream life.

Soon, everyone in the tribe pushed carts and returned to the tribe carrying large amounts of food.

They were originally planning to hold a banquet, but after hearing Arati say that a traitor appeared in the tribe, everyone in the tribe quickly gathered together.

Soon, Morente and several men came out of the warehouse carrying several tied-up young orcs.

"It's this group of people." Arati pointed at the young men kneeling on the ground. "They betrayed the interests of the tribe and informed the orc tribe of our relocation in advance, which led to the orc tribe coming to collect food in advance today, and almost made us starve!"

"Now, we are going to put them on trial!"

As Arati finished speaking, the crowd became excited and the emotions of the tribal people were aroused. They all cursed the young people.

Even their parents regretted giving birth to such ungrateful children.

"Now, let's make a vote. Should we keep them in the tribe and make amends for their crimes, or expel them from the tribe completely?" Alati asked, looking at the people in the tribe.

"Those who agree to expel them should stand on my left, and those who agree to let them stay in the tribe should stand on my right."

Soon, the tribal square was filled with people standing on Arati's left.

Even the parents and relatives of these traitors mostly stood on the left side of Arati. Only a few people were reluctant to see their relatives being exiled, but were disappointed with their behavior, so they stood in the middle, which was equivalent to abstention.

"Okay, then according to the principle of minority obeying majority, this group of people will be exiled from the tribe."

"The one who practices... let..."

"Let me do it," Orson said, offering to help. "I'm just about to go deeper into the desert, so I'll supervise them as I go, to prevent them from running back."

"Okay." Arati nodded. "Then today is the last day for you traitors to stay here. You can still catch up with your loved ones."

"Starting tomorrow, you will no longer be members of the tribe."

In the end, Arati softened his heart. If the relatives of these traitors were going to let them go, tonight would undoubtedly be the best time. However, it was precisely this kind of humanity that enabled him to gain everyone's unanimous support.

Chapter 1: Limusha Temple (W)

That night, the people of the tribe held a party happily because they had recovered their lost food.

Of course, this party certainly had nothing to do with the traitors in the tribe.

If Arati was kind enough, they could have one last meal before being driven out of the tribe tomorrow.

But if Arati was more ruthless, they would have to travel on an empty stomach.

"Big brother." At the banquet, Lena sat next to Orson. They were sitting a little far away from everyone in the tribe.

"You said before that you wanted to go deep into the desert, right?"

"Yeah." Orson nodded after hearing that.

The atmosphere of the tribal gathering was quite lively, but Orson could not join in.

"Then... Big Brother, can you take me with you?"

"No." Orson shook his head decisively.

"Huh? Why? Big brother, don't look at me looking so thin. I'm actually in good health. Traveling is my strong point." Lena pouted and said dissatisfiedly when she heard Orson reject her.

"No means no." Orson said this and looked at Lena. "The depths of the desert are dangerous. If I take you with me, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."

"I don't need your protection, big brother..." Lena said in a low voice, but she didn't even believe what she said.

If she really had that ability, she would have slipped away by herself long ago.

"Why do you want to go out so much? Aren't everyone in the tribe very nice to you? And Chief Arati has always taken care of you like his own child. What do you have against them?"

"No." Lena shook her head. "Everyone in the tribe is very nice, but... I want to see the temple of the Lord of All Beasts."

"I've always heard from Grandpa Arati how magnificent the temple is and how good the surrounding environment is, but I've been traveling with the tribe since I can remember..."

"I see..." Orson nodded after hearing that. "It's good to be curious and eager to learn, but since you're asking someone else to do something, you should think about it from their perspective."

"Woo..." Lena lowered her head.

"Go ask Arati. If he agrees to let you go with me, it's not impossible. But I can only take you to the temple. After you visit the temple, if you still want to come back, you'll have to rely on yourself."

"I can guarantee your safety if I take you with me, but if something happens and we are forced to separate, will you still be able to protect yourself?"

"I hope you have thought carefully

After answering these questions, give me your answer. Otherwise, you are playing with your own life. I cannot agree to such a thing. "

When Lena heard what Orson said, she didn't say anything. She just stood up and walked away.

Orson looked at Lena's back and sighed.

He has seen too many naughty children. Most of them only consider themselves when doing things, not others, or only consider the results, not the process.

If you act without careful thinking, many problems will definitely arise in the process.

Of course he could understand that as a child who had always lived with the tribe and listened to so many stories told by Arati, it was normal for him to have dreams and yearnings for the outside world.

This time, Orson passed by the tribe, which was indeed a rare opportunity in his life and allowed her to get out a little safer.

Otherwise, if she relied on herself, Lena would be captured by the orcs as a prisoner before she could get a few miles out of the tribe.

Moreover, Orson couldn't fly into the air to travel in the desert where the weather was windy and sandy. If he just walked on his own two legs without any assistance, Lena could indeed keep up with him.

However, these are only theoretical possibilities. In fact, if an eighth-level orc like Baru appears in the middle, it will be very troublesome for Orson to defeat him in someone else's home turf. And if he escapes, taking Lena with him will undoubtedly be an extra burden.

What's more, there are countless dangerous things in the desert that Orson doesn't know about.

However, just as the party was about to end, Alati approached Orson.

"Mr. Edward." Arati said as he came forward. "I heard Lena say that she wants to go with you?"

"Yeah." Orson nodded. "I tried to persuade her not to follow me, but she seemed a little unhappy about it."

"Alas, I can understand how this child feels." Arati sighed. "She seems lively and always does things carelessly, but in fact, she is more thoughtful than anyone else."

"When I was teaching the children, I talked about a lot of real-life landscapes and stories. Other children just thought they were novel, but she was the only one who really wanted to learn."

"Her wish since she was little is to be able to go out and see the world."

"But you are also aware of the conditions in the tribe. We can't even protect ourselves, let alone help Lena realize her wish..."

"If, I mean if, Mr. Edward, you can help her realize her wish, I'm sure she will be very happy."

Arati knew that it was Orson who helped the tribe recover the food. If he had Orson's ability, he would definitely be able to protect Lena.

"But she has lived with you for so long, and you are family members who support each other. Can you really bear to let her go?"

"..." Hearing this, Arati lowered his head. "I raised her, how could I ever want to let her go."

"But compared to watching her forcefully smile and respond to her so-called life every day, I would think that if she really fulfilled her wish, the smile on her face would definitely be happier."

It is said that the love of parents is the most compassionate in the world. Although the age difference between Lena and Arati can be described as grandfather and grandson, the family relationship is still very close and sincere.

"I understand." Orson nodded. "In that case, I'll go ask Lena again."

"Well, sorry, I really trouble you."

"It doesn't matter. I won't be so bored if I have someone to chat with on the way." Orson said with a smile.

Then he walked out of the tribe.

Tonight, the weather in the desert is pretty good. Without the obstruction of wind and sand, the stars in the night sky are clearly visible.

Lena sat on the loess outside the tribe and looked up at the starry sky.

Just at this moment, footsteps were heard beside me.

Then, a man sat next to Lena.

"Lena, I'm sorry, my tone might have been a little too harsh just now." Orson said this and apologized to Lena.

"No, I'm just too stubborn and willful." Lena shook her head. She hugged her knees and lowered her head. Her eyes were red and swollen, but Orson couldn't see the expression on her face at the moment.

"The night sky is beautiful, isn't it?" Orson said, looking at Lena.

"Yeah." She nodded. "This kind of weather is rare in the desert, but every time it happens, I sit outside my house and look at the stars."

"So, Lena, do you want to get closer to the stars?"

"Huh?" Lena

Hearing this, she was stunned for a moment, and then she felt a sense of weightlessness and was held in Orson's arms.

She looked at Orson in surprise, but what surprised her even more was that at this moment, the scenery around her was sinking.

In other words, she and Orson were on the rise.

"Wait...wait! Brother Edward, what are we doing?!"

"Lena, don't you like to enjoy the scenery?" Orson said, preparing to lay Lena flat on his flying carpet.

But how could she feel safe on a flying carpet floating in the air? Lena immediately hugged Orson tightly like a koala.

"Okay, it's okay." Orson said, patting Lena's head. "Look, I'm standing on the blanket and nothing happened."

After hearing what Orson said, Lena tentatively stretched out a foot and lightly tapped the flying carpet. When she saw that the carpet showed signs of sinking, she immediately retracted her foot.

Seeing this, Orson shook his head helplessly and lay down on the flying carpet.

"Okay, turn your head and look at the sky."

After ascending several hundred meters, although the air was thin and breathing was a little difficult, the scenery was quite different.

More stars that were previously invisible appeared in front of Lena, and the stars that were shining on the ground before now formed a galaxy, which looked very dreamy.

"This... this is..." Lena saw such a beautiful scene and forgot that she was in the air. She looked at everything in front of her in a daze.

"I heard from Chief Arati that your favorite thing to do is to sit at the door and count the stars, right?"

"Oh, grandpa, how could he say such a thing..." Lena blushed when she heard it.

Only a child could do such a thing.

"It's not something shameful. I think it's good."
