Lion King's Adopted Son

Chapter 20

From winter to spring, the weather gradually warmed up, herbivores gradually moved back here to graze, and predators began to appear more and more frequently.The orcs had enough prey, and the smiles on their faces gradually increased.

Because of the process of foraging in winter, Jela and his toddler group are no longer satisfied with fighting every day, and they start to participate in hunting.

Of course, as an advocate, Jela is very clear about the situation of his cubs. It is impossible for them to participate in catching large prey with adult orcs. Their claws and teeth are still too immature, their bodies are not strong enough, and they have no signs With experience against the enemy, rashly joining the adults in hunting will only make them a burden.

Although the cubs are young, they can't help but want to show off their paws.They choose to exercise themselves in less dangerous ways.

Their range of activities is patrolled by orcs near the tribe, so that even if they encounter any danger, they can ask the adults for help.Their hunting targets are usually less lethal animals such as rabbits and pheasants, and occasionally they will catch some lambs that have strayed away from the flock.

As a result, the surrounding small animals suffered another disaster, either they were moved away far away, or they were brought together by Jella and his friends.Although everyone is a small animal, Jiela and his group are obviously much more fierce than the small animals living around them.The orc cubs all like to eat meat, this is their nature, even the little chicken Benben and the little lamb Mianmian, who seem to belong to the family of herbivores, are no exception.When confronted with pheasants, Little Chick Benben didn’t let go of water just because everyone is a chicken, and Little Lamb Mianmian didn’t have the slightest bit when he caught the little lamb who regarded himself as the same kind and bleated at him in a friendly way. show mercy.

While chasing the small animals, Jela accidentally stepped into a small pile of snow that hadn't melted yet.

It feels very strange, because the spring is already halfway through at this time.

"Strange, why is there still snow at this time? Could it be that this is a cold area?" Jela was puzzled for a while, and when she heard the little friends around her calling for it, she put the thought behind her and happily talked with her little friends. We went to catch chickens and hares together.

The orc cubs are full every day when they go home, and they have extra meals from hunting. After a spring, each one has become plump and fatter than before the winter.

"Claire, why do you think Gera keeps running outside recently?" Pascal was very upset when he just dragged back a plump warthog and wanted to share it with his son, but found that his son ran out of the door past him.What about parent-child time?What about the life of the two lions?

Claire couldn't understand Pascal's depressed mood at all. She smiled and said, "It's better for males to be more lively, Mr. Pascal, you were always running around when you were young, and the Santo and his wife couldn't find you. I was very worried. Have you forgotten?"

Claire was Pascal's playmate when she was a child, and she was Pascal's bodyguard when she grew up. She knew most about Pascal's affairs. At the end, she did not forget to add: "Compared to you, Gera Already very well behaved."

"Really? I don't remember what happened so long ago." Pascal's tone showed a slight sense of loss.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I..." Claire remembered that Pascal's parents were no longer there.

"It's okay, Claire. Although my father and mother are gone, they will always live in my heart. It is definitely not painful for me to recall the days spent with them. On the contrary, I am grateful that someone Being able to be by my side and talking to me about them every now and then."

"You are so open-minded, just like your father, our respected Lord Frouville." Claire ignored Celant directly. In her heart, Celant could not be compared with Pascal's father at all.

"Claire, I will definitely take back the city lord that my father gave me from Celant."

"Well, you can. That's why Leod and I follow you."

At this time, Claire restrained her usual carelessness, revealing her sincere respect for Pascal.At this moment, they are no longer friends, but followers and the followed.

"However, are you really going to stay here for two years, as that annoying patriarch said? I mean, two years is a bit too long, even for Gera's sake—you know, about There is not much theoretical knowledge of spiritual power, as for practice, I believe that there will be plenty of opportunities to practice it after returning to the prairie we live in." Claire asked.

Now they have only spent half a year in the orc tribe.In every way, Claire doesn't like life here.

"I'm afraid you are annoyed by the way those people in the tribe look at you?" Pascal joked.

Originally, everyone thought that Claire was a male, but they were reluctant to accept the two extra lumps of flesh growing on her body.After all, a male who can catch a lot of prey is a good male.Even if the male is a bit ugly and weird, there will still be females who are willing to live with him. Hunting ability is an important guarantee for the family's food source.

But since knowing that Claire is a female, everyone's eyes on her have completely changed.The orcs were rough-headed, and after the initial shock, they accepted the fact that they were hunting with a female, but the way they looked at Claire still made her feel hairy.As for the sub-beasts, the lovers in their dreams have turned into rivals in love, and their eyes on Claire have changed from admiration to rejection. They can always pick out thousands of faults from Claire, who is also a female.

"Oh, don't mention it..." Claire showed a constipated expression: "They just make me unbearable." Especially those sub-beasts, no matter what time they are, their attitude makes her unbearable: "But these are not me. The main reason why I want to leave here. I don’t know why, but during the half year here, I always feel a little uneasy.”

Pascal raised his eyebrows: "Female intuition?"

"Whether it's a hunch or a hunch, whatever you want to say, I always feel that something bad is going to happen. These days, I always feel very depressed." Claire said: "You have a similar feeling ?"

Pascal nodded: "I'll tell you some good news. I'm afraid we won't be here for long. Of course, maybe this is also bad news."

"What's the reason?" Claire knew very well that Pascal was not a random person.Moreover, the higher the level of elemental force, the more sensitive the elementalists are to the surrounding senses.Although Pascal was unable to use elemental power on this hill, his keen senses belonging to an elementalist did not disappear.Claire elaborated, Pascal must have sensed something that he couldn't perceive.

"Good question, have you noticed that the climate here has become very abnormal? According to the wise men and elders of the orc tribe, although it snowed in previous winters, it has never been as cold as last year. The orc tribe is located in Buddha The south of Lovell City, logically speaking, it shouldn’t be colder than the winter in Foroville City. But you have also seen that nearly two-thirds of last year’s winter was snowing until the end of this spring, With the arrival of summer, the snow has not completely melted." Pascal looked a little solemn: "Think about it, what will the climate of Foroville be like in this season?"

"You mean, the climate here is getting colder? Oh, it sounds a little scary." Claire thought about it carefully: "Although it's warmer than winter now, when you think about it, the temperature hasn't risen much. The only reason we feel warm now is because it's not windy and snowy anymore, right?"

With Pascal nodding, Claire's mood also became heavy: "Will something bad happen?"

Abnormal situations are always easy to remind people of ominous things.

"I don't know either. In fact, I'm trying to persuade people from the orc tribe to leave here with us."

"They won't agree, this is where their ancestors lived for generations." Claire blurted out.She could tell that the orcs and sub-beasts of the orc tribe had deep feelings for this place. If it was her, she would not want to leave her hometown easily.The reason why she was willing to leave Frouville with Pascal was because she knew that she would go back one day.

For a tribe, relocation is no small matter.

"I'll try to convince them to move out together. If that doesn't work, I don't mind doing something unconventional."

Claire nodded.

"Wait for Gera to come back and tell it not to run out casually during this time."

"Wait, Lord Pascal, don't we tell Gera about these things?"

"Tell it what to do?" Pascal asked suspiciously - it was obvious that he had never considered telling his adopted son about it.

"Although Jela is just a child, he is very sensible. If we tell it the matter and let it understand the seriousness of the matter, it will definitely not run out casually again. It is now a child among the little orcs Wang, maybe it can persuade those little orcs not to run around. Those little orcs might influence their families..."

Pascal frowned: "It's just a group of children, you shouldn't put your hopes on them. If we reveal these things to a group of children and let them spread, the orc tribe will definitely think that we are Nonsense."

"But Gera..." Claire wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Pascal: "Don't tell Gera about this. If it refuses to obey and keeps running outside, teach it a lesson. There is always a way to make children obedient."

"You're really... well, I'll listen to you."

Although Pascal is willing to apologize to his followers in many small matters, when there is no connivance in his eyes, no one can go against his wishes.
