VOLUME 4 CHAPTER 34: DONT TELL ME THIS IS THE LAST CHAPTER OF VOLUME4

TL: Next up is a 6 part extra story, its really cute and the MC actually gets some action (sort of).

Yun Chang POV

Lord Lu Bu, are Gan Qing and Mi Zhen settled in yet?

I brought the horse out of the stables and bumped into Lu Bu who had also come to take a horse. Lu Bu seems to be looking particularly refreshed.

Does she hate Lord Cao Cao? Though I dont really like her myself.

I left it to Wen Yuan. Lu Bu slowly said as she entered the stables and looked for her horse, It might be strange to say this all of a sudden but I cant quite get along with anyone else besides Wen Yuan.

Eh? Now that she said it, I realised that I hadnt seen Lu Bu having good relations with anyone else, Are they difficult to deal with?

Lu Bu thought for a moment before shaking her head, If I had to put a reason to it, then it can only be that Im difficult to get along with.

Eh?

Theres nothing to be surprised about. Both you and Wen Yuan are warriors so you dont feel anything. She brought her horse out as she continued, But to normal people, Im probably an existence thats difficult to approach.

Of course, apart from Xuan De.

She added thereafter.

Indeed, most ordinary people would feel that Lu Bu is a dangerous existence.

*Wang*! Just then, a small bark could be heard from Lu Bus chest, and a small furball began to poke its head through her breastplate as it extended its red tongue and panted.

Its been a few days since Ive seen Red Hare and it feels like its grown a fair bit.

Lu Bu silently stroked Red Hares head and the cold, stern look melted into a kind, loving one.

Even though she looks so kind at such times, I thought and then shook my head. Big brother is probably the only ordinary person who can see this side of Lu Bu.

Un?

Lord Lu Bu This horse of yours is really big.

It wasnt just huge, its bright red mane and fur were rather off-putting.

Un? Ah, I used this horse to escape when I killed Dong Zhuo. Seems like its his personal horse. Lu Bu said as she stroked the horses mane, I wanted to name this horse Red Hare but I changed my mind after I met this little critter in Hulao Pass. Lu Bu rubbed Red Hares head as she said so.

(TL: Yes, the horse is supposed to be the Red Hare.)

Would Lord Guan Yu be interested in it? If you are, you are welcome to take it for a ride. Its not a tame one though~

Un, when we get the chance. I hurriedly put it off.

Wouldnt it be embarrassing if I fell off such a big horse? I smiled bitterly at myself as I thought so.

As I brought my horse out of the stables with Lu Bu and headed to the eastern exit, I saw that Wen Yuan was already waiting there for a long while.

Wen Yuan~ I called out as I slowly brought the horse over, How is it? Have Gan Qing and Mi Zhen settled in already?

Oh, theyre on the carriage behind. Wen Yuan said as relief spread across her face, I really was shocked when I heard the news about our lord (Liu Bei)~ I didnt think he would meet with my lord (Lu Bu) on the battlefield.

Looks like Wen Yuan was very happy as well.

Wait for me!

Un?

I turned back and saw Hua Tuo dragging her thick clothing behind as she ran over. Even though it was winter now, steam was rising from her head which was drenched in sweat.

Lord Hua Tuo what were you up to?

Haa Haa Nothing much, Hua Tuo said between pants as she waved her hands, Ive just been more occupied with treating Lord Guo Jia, and went to make a few more servings of medicine before we leave.

Lord Guo Jia huh Isnt she that girl whos always coughing up blood?

How is Lord Guo Jias status?

Hua Tuo sighed when she heard what I said. Her lung disease is too advanced for my medicine have too much of an effect. I want to cure her but Im afraid nothing short of a long period of rest and recovery will help.

She pointed at the surroundings before continuing, And with such a dusty environment with frequent cold winds, its already a miracle that Lord Guo Jias condition has not deteriorated further.

Un Is she working too hard? I thought back to when we first reached Guandu and how Guo Jia was always busy with something, Lets leave that aside for now. We need to leave soon or it will be dark out.

Though Hua Tuo was still concerned about Guo Jias illness, she eventually got up onto the carriage after a moments hesitation.

I did not let Hua Tuo ride a horse as she always slipped about even though she knew how to ride one. I felt that it wasnt too safe and it would be better if she just went on the carriage with Gan Qing and Mi Zhen instead.

Ah I can see Xuan De again soon Hua Tuo muttered as she got on the carriage, Its been such a long time, I wonder how his health has been holding up.

Looks like she really is a physician through and through.

Lord Guan Yu, Someone called out to me as they ran over. I looked over and saw that it was Xiahou Dun, I heard you all were leaving. The Imperial Chancellor sent me to see you off. Here, take this. This should tide you over for any expenses along the way.

As she said so, a soldier nearby came up and loaded a small box onto the carriage.

Youre too generous. I saluted as I said so. Lu Bu and Wen Yuan who were behind me saluted as well.

I wont try and keep you all, Xiahou Dun saluted as she said so, Northward will see many battles and skirmishes so you should head east and only turn north after you reach the Yellow River.

I nodded, and thanked Xiahou Dun. I got on my horse and turned my head back and looked at the Cao encampment as I began to leave. I turned back to look ahead, and felt like big brother wa just ahead, waiting for us to return to his side.

Liu Bei POV

My lord, our supplies are running low. If our supply lines keep getting raided then we wont make it past this year. Ju Shou said worriedly.

Un Feng Ji, what are you doing with the supplies? How many times has it been already?

Tian Yuan Hao! Y, youre just blaming me because your plan isnt working!

Yeah, thats right.

Dont try and turn it back on me! If our supplies werent raided, we would have

*Pa*! The table was slammed yet again. There was no need to confirm it, Ben Chu was definitely angry again.

Alright, dont say anymore.

Un? Why is she so even-tempered? I was puzzled and looked over to see that she was looking at the map on the table, deep in thought.

My lord? Feng Ji went up and probed when she saw that Ben Chu did not continue speaking.

Ive decided!

Eek! Ben Chus sudden yell gave Feng Ji a shock.

I looked over and saw that Ben Chu was pointing at one spot on the map and was smiling as she stood there.

No more sneaking about. We will now form a surround with infantry and press forward, thereafter Ben Chu flicked her beautiful, luscious hair back, looking more confident than ever before as she continued, We use our brains and finish this on the plains here.

After Ben Chu finished, all the officials and generals crowded forward to see where she was pointing at. As for me, I didnt need to do so as I already knew where it would be.

Guandu.

What was unexpected was that Ben Chu suddenly clasped her hands in front of her chest and saluted her subordinates. It felt very out of place as this was the first time Ive ever seen Ben Chu salute her subordinates.

Just as everyone was still in a state of shock, Ben Chu continued

Im counting on everyone for this battle!

Meng De POV

Ah

My lord? What is the matter? Jia Xu asked coldly.

Ah, no. Its nothing. I did my best to cover it up and waved my hands as I picked up a scroll and pretended to read it.

I finally remembered it, the thing Id forgotten.

I forgot to give Guan Yu and the rest an exit permit
