Perhaps, this is just a delaying tactic.

This demon pretended to know nothing, and after leaving, he informed the Demon King's army and sent people to capture them.

When thinking about more possibilities in the future...

"Boom!"

The old orc stood up with the help of his cane, limped towards the sofa, and said without looking back:

"Don't eat so much for one person, save some for your sister."

"Ah... yeah."

"If you like it, I'll teach you how to make it next time."

It sat down on the sofa by the window, relaxed its body, and soon became quiet.

...

"H-What should I do..."

"I do not know either...."

After Ziyin woke up, she hid in the kitchen with Weilai to discuss countermeasures.

The two men secretly looked at the old orc sleeping in the hall and listened to the dripping faucet, not knowing what to do.

Should it be killed?

Or do nothing and just let it go...

"I think it's best not to do anything... It can't even tell us apart from its own granddaughter anymore. It won't pose any threat."

The future pursed her lips bitterly, the sweet taste of the omelet still seemed to linger at the corner of her lips:

"The demons may not be all bad people."

"Are you crazy?!"

Ziyin's eyes widened, and there was a look of disbelief in her dark red eyes:

"It's a demon! A sinister and cunning demon! I don't know how many humans it has eaten in its lifetime. What if it reports us after it leaves? I don't want to be eaten!"

Ziyin recalled the bloody crimes recorded in the textbooks. Just by imagining that the victim was herself, a cold fear instantly crawled down her spine and spread throughout her body.

"I, we were nearly killed by the demonic weapons not long ago. How could we possibly hand over the power of life and death to them?"

"But, but, I can't do it..."

Wei covered her chest with her hands. This restless anxiety made her feel extremely painful.

Ziyin grabbed her shoulders, her eyes already filled with madness:

"Future, you were the academy's top magical girl before, and you always ranked first in all your grades. How could you not be able to do it?"

"Didn't you say you would kill all the demons half a month ago? Why don't you do it yourself?"

"I've already cut ties with myself from half a month ago!"

The two men blamed each other and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

That's right, magical girls were born to destroy demons.

As the best students in the magic academy, if they can't even do this kind of thing, then all the long study and training before would be completely meaningless.

"Magical Girls" should be weapons to destroy demons.

"I..." Wei Li bit his lower lip, lowered his hands, loosened his clenched fists, and said negatively:

"I can't do it... Maybe she's just an ordinary old woman."

"elder..."

Ziyin was stunned for a moment, but her eyes became firm. She gritted her teeth and walked towards the stove.

"By the way, I, I can't die yet. Grandma is still waiting for me at home."

"Swish"

She took out a kitchen knife, and the cold blade reflected her bloodshot eyes.

"I thought I could show off my talents in the Demon Realm and make my grandma proud of me, but... now I can't even go back to see her."

"Ziyin..."

"I would do anything to go back and take care of her."

After saying that, she walked out of the hall step by step with the knife in hand.

Tap tap tap....

The sound of subtle footsteps.

The old orc was unaware of the approaching danger. The morning breeze blew the curtains around him, and the warm sunlight fell on his long and weathered hair, making him look unusually peaceful.

Kill the demons....

In order to achieve this goal, Shion, a magical girl, has trained hard for countless days and nights, and has imagined killing the demons countless times in her mind.

I can do it!

For this world...

For humanity...

For justice...

For...Grandma...

Just stab the knife into the opponent's body. It's very simple and only requires a moment of courage.

"Wait!" Ziyin raised the kitchen knife in her hand. Wei Lai wanted to stop her, but the next second...

"Clang"

The kitchen knife fell to the ground.

"I....."

Ziyin slumped on the ground, unable to bring herself to do it. She could only put down the kitchen knife and cover her face with her hands, crying like a helpless child.

“I just want to go home…”

The old orc in front of her reminded her of her only relative.

"Ziyin..."

Weiwei walked forward, gently stroked Ziyin's back, and hugged her tightly in his arms.

From the most remote house in the blockaded area, the sound of a young girl's painful sobs could be heard.

...

Ziyin continued crying for a long time, tears kept falling.

But.....

The old orc sitting on the sofa was like a wooden sculpture, making no sound and remaining motionless.

"old lady...?"

The future noticed something unusual.

What's going on? Is he really just asleep? Even his breathing has become weaker, like he's about to...

"Dong Ta!"

The old orc's crutch fell down and his body fell forward as if he had lost strength.

"Are you okay, old lady?!"

Wei Lai quickly stepped forward and held it.

Only then did she realize that the old orc's fur was soaked with cold sweat, and his breathing had become extremely weak, like a flame that could go out at any time. He didn't even have the strength to sit up.

"Ziyin, come and help!"

Chapter 63 Running

“What on earth is going on…”

Ziyin didn't have time to wipe away her tears. With red eyes, she and Weilai carried the old orc into the room and let it lie on the bed sheets, which should make it more comfortable.

"I don't know either. She is very weak now."

Wei Li condensed the rosy red magic power in his hands and gently reached into the old orc's chest. He could feel that the other's breathing and heartbeat were becoming weaker and weaker, and could go out at any time.

"Old lady, please tell us, what happened to your body?"

"..."

The old orc slowly opened his eyes and looked at the two girls through his messy hair. He gasped hoarsely, as if he wanted to say something, but finally closed his eyes tiredly.

"My grandma always carries some pills with her. Let's see if she has any first aid medicine!"

Ziyin began to search the old orc's body and found only an empty medicine box in his pocket, but discovered a waist bag hidden under the fluffy hair on his waist.

However, when Ziyin reached for her waist bag...

"No touching."

The old orc stopped her.

The old, wrinkled hands tightly protected the waist bag, and he was unwilling to let go even when his breathing was about to stop.

"You two... haven't you been hoping for me to die soon? That way you won't have to take care of me in my old age. Now you've got what you wanted. Now, leave me alone and let me fend for myself."

The old orc waved his hands as if to drive them away, with a disdainful smile on his lips.

"......"

The two magical girls looked at each other, and silence gradually enveloped every corner of the room, as if the god of death was approaching.

This demon...is going to die.

As long as they do nothing, the old orc will die naturally.

No need to get your hands dirty, and no responsibility.

Even the demons themselves have given up resistance; this is their wish.

This is also the safest approach. You don't have to worry about your whereabouts being exposed or being attacked by demons, and you can return to your normal life.

if only......

Just watch quietly.

.....

.....

"Ziyin, carry her onto my back."

Wei Lai squatted down, showing his back to the old orc, put his hands behind his back, and got into the posture of carrying someone on his back.

“Do you really want to do this…?”

Ziyin understood what Mirai was planning to do and asked nervously.

"No way, there's no time."

"......I see."

Facing the determined amber eyes of the future, Ziyin picked up the old orc and placed him on the future's back.

"What are you going to do..."

The old orc opened his eyes dazedly and was now in a semi-comatose state, without even the strength to resist.

"I'm going to take you to the hospital."

Wei Li gritted his teeth, carried the old orc on his back, and walked towards the door step by step.

Previously, when Mirai was on a mission with Yoshito, he noticed that the streets of the Demon Realm were similar to those of the human world, with buildings like pharmacies and hospitals.

That is to say....
