Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire

So Good

“???”

Leda was still angry. She was eating when Kuro called her away and insisted that she should see someone she didn’t know. As a result, she had just arrived and this person’s words filled her with question marks.

From the looks of it, he knows me?

Leda thought for a long time and made sure that there was nothing wrong with her memory. She did not know this person.

“Who are you?” She looked up at the person who looked like him.

“Hey, what a joke!”

Lowe widened his eyes and stared at Leda in disbelief. “Have you forgotten the glory of Lowe?! Or after you became a Marine, you turned your back on the glory!”

“Huh?”

Leda looked like she was listening to a fantasy story and was completely confused. “What glory? Who are you?”

Lowe looked directly at Leda, as if he wanted to see something on her face. Suddenly, he laughed. “My stupid sister, what are you pretending for? The characteristics of ‘Lo’ on you are proof.”

“Oh? You are Leda’s brother? Really?”

Kuro said in surprise when he heard this.

Instead of replying, Leda frowned. “Brother? Do I have a brother?”

These words exposed the blue veins on Lowe’s forehead and he roared, “Lolita! Have you really forgotten!”

Hearing the name, Leda’s pupils shrank and there was a brief moment of absent-mindedness in her eyes. She murmured, “La… Lita?”

A trace of pain appeared on her small face.

“Lolita, Lolita…” She repeated the name in a low voice, as if there was some painful memory coming from her mind.

**TIP**

A stone hit Lowe’s face like a bullet, leaving a trace of blood.

Kuro retracted his finger and said coldly, “Who allowed you to be so loud?”

The sound of the stone brought Leda back to her senses. She frowned and said to Lowe:

“My name is not Lolita. My name is Flo Leda. Now and always.”

Lowe was stunned. Then, as if he was humiliated, he continued to roar, “Stop joking, Flo is just the surname of ‘Lo’. Are you humiliating me?!”

“I don’t care!”

Leda stuck her tongue out at him. “My name is Flo Leda. I’m a Marine, Kuro. He’s so noisy.”

“Yeah.”

Kuro pulled out Autumn Water. “Forget it, I’ll send you on your way. It doesn’t matter.”

“You can’t escape!”

Lowe completely ignored Kuro’s threat and stared straight at Leda and said, “You can’t hide from the bloodline of the Lowe family. That is our inheritance and characteristics. If you don’t return to the family, you will suffer from hunger forever!”

These words made Kuro stop stabbing Lowe.

“The pain of hunger?”

The black blade was placed on Lowe’s neck and Kuro narrowed his eyes. “Hey, explain it clearly.”

Lowe smiled and stared straight at Leda.

“Do you feel hungry all the time? No matter how you eat, you will never feel full. If you don’t return to the family, your pain can’t be relieved.”

“This should have been engraved in your memory long ago. Why didn’t you go back when you were alive? Loretta, answer me!”

“I don’t know…”

Lida said in distress, “Isn’t it because of the side effects of the fruit? Besides, I’m full. It’s strange… Forget it, I’m hungry. I want to eat something. Kuro, I’ll leave it to you.”

With that, she trotted away.

“Leta, Loretta!”

Lowe shouted at her, “You come back! You dishonorable person who betrayed the family, you… cough!”

A cloud of smoke flew to his face and entered his mouth and nose, making him choke and cough.

“You two follow.”

Kuro blew out smoke and spoke to Crowe and Kaz.

The two nodded and followed Leda.

Kuro looked at Lowe and silently took another puff of the cigar. The smoke flew out of the gap in his mouth and the mist under Lowe’s head did not disperse and just stopped.

“Want to die or live?” Kuro asked.

Lowe looked down at the smoke and his eyes flashed. Finally, he opened his mouth and said, “Live!”

“Then it’s easy. Tell me, what is the Luo Family and what is the trial?”

“You want to know the secrets of the Luo Family?”

A smile appeared on Lowe’s lips. “Sure, an equal exchange. Ask a question and I’ll ask a question.”

“You’re still bargaining with me at this time?”

Kuro narrowed his eyes and the smoke under Lowe’s head rose up and wrapped around his head. Immediately, the smoke entered his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, making Lowe look painful.

He gritted his teeth and said fiercely to Kuro, “This level of pain is far from enough!”

“Fine, you’re awesome.”

Kuro dispersed the smoke and glanced at him. “What does trial mean?”

Without the smoke, Lowe took a few breaths and rested for a while before saying:

“Our tradition is to ensure that the people of the Luo Family are all elites. From the age of eight, our clansmen will be placed in various places for trials, each place is very far away.”

“The appetite of the young members of the Luo family is very terrifying and they are easily hungry. Only by thinking of a way to overcome or satisfy this hunger and return to the Luo family alone can the trial be considered complete.”

“It’s my turn, why is Leta in the Marine, why didn’t she come back to the family, and did she really forget?”

“That’s three questions.”

Kuro thought for a moment and said, “Leda is in the Marine, I recruited her. Next, why are you hungry?”

“A side effect of bloodline.”

When he said this, Lowe’s eyes showed a trace of ruthlessness.

“You should have seen our bloodline. Leta learns any body technique very quickly. This is the power of our family. However, the side effect of this power is that it requires a lot of food.”

“This is a common problem that every member of the Luo Family is born with. Only after completing the trial and returning to the family will the Patriarch unlock this restriction for us and no longer bear endless hunger.”

“It’s my turn. Why didn’t she return to the family?” Lowe asked.

Kuro shrugged. “I don’t know. When I met her, I was in East Blue. Okay, continue, what memory did you just say? Every Luo family member like you has a memory of going back?”

“Of course! Otherwise, do you expect a young child to remember this mission?”

Lowe said, “This is also what I want to ask. When we go out to train, there are memories of this in our minds. No matter what, we will definitely return to the West Blue Lowe family. Why doesn’t Leta have this?”

“Well, I’m not sure.”

Kuro looked at him and continued, “If you want to relieve the so-called ‘hunger’, you have to go back?”

“You have to go back!” Lowe said decisively. “There is no other way except to go back to the family, and as time goes by, the hunger of the people who have not gone back will become greater and greater. Over time, they will be swallowed by hunger.”

“Ah… okay, I got it. You stay here, I will find you later.”

Kuro nodded, waved to Lowe, and walked towards the base.

“Hey, you haven’t answered my question. Stop, Luciru Kuro, stop!”

Lowe widened his eyes and shouted at Kuro’s back.

But no one cared about him.

He shouted for a while and saw Kuro walking further and further away. He could only stop his voice.

Lowe looked in the direction of the base and the angry expression on his face gradually disappeared. He stared there in a daze and said nothing.

“He’s still alive…”

After a long time, he sighed.

“That’s nice.”
