"Joshua... just doesn't want to recall the blow her sister suffered when she died. So subconsciously forcing herself to recognize it as someone else's thing." Regardless of the stiffness and shock on the boy's face, Esther just continued I continued, "This is the same thing that saved me just now. You must have worked a lot to sneak into that mothership? But you didn't hesitate to show up to save me... That's because you are strong I hope I can get out of danger soon."

"I...no, I...I have never felt fear since I was adjusted by the professor. Your inference is completely out of focus."

"It's definitely not because of the professor's hands and feet, and it's not because of Joshua's broken heart. It's just because of fear... so I'm deceiving myself. Now I can be sure of this with confidence."

"Why...but..." Joshua wanted to refute, but he paused for a while, and finally realized that he could not continue with this. He bit his lower lip and quickly turned around. Instead of his pretending to be strong, the corners of his eyes were red and his voice was a little choked, "...Why do you... even this kind of thing... …"

"I have said...I am the person who knows Joshua best. What's more, I already know everything now... Everything about Joshua is no longer a hidden secret... Even the professor and Levi , I will not lose to them either."

Joshua was stunned. He vaguely felt what the girl would do next. A voice in his heart screamed desperately that it can’t be like this. You have made up your mind to reject her, but another voice is encouraging him to open up to the girl in front of him——

"Cowardly and brave Joshua." Estil opened her lips slightly, her cheeks flushed, and walked forward gently.

"Joshua, lying and honest." The voice began to tremble, but his movements were extremely calm and decisive--

"My... favorite Joshua, you finally...returned to my side." Estil gently hugged Joshua, feeling through the light clothing, it was like a spasm. Shaking in a panic, closed his eyes.

Feeling the heat in the corner of her eyes, Joshua hurriedly wanted to wipe away her tears. He had already thought about it, and the girl would definitely laugh at his crying embarrassed appearance next. He wanted to say that this was the sea breeze blowing the gravel into his eyes-but when he said it, there was no excuse prepared in advance...

"Why... even after my sister died... even if it was acting for a mission, I...tears could not flow..." The boy choked, this familiar and unfamiliar feeling-when he was still a reasonable person When encountering a child who was aggrieved and crying loudly, he was deprived of his inherent power as a human being by his ruthless fate. He stretched out his hand, shaking, staring blankly at the crystal clear tears dripping on his palm.

"Haha...Is it...I didn't see it. Just let it flow as much as you want...I only need to hug you so tightly..."

The waves were still there, and people in the distance could not hear the whispers of the young man.

"It's touching. I was so moved and cried, how about you?" Heliga stood not far away looking at the touching side in front of him, smiling with relief, and talking ridiculous words—of course , This is not talking to himself, but facing the three people with complicated expressions in the airship that landed behind him-the Capua family.

"Oh, I'm exhausted." Doren waved his arms and moved around in a wide range. "The airship of the association is difficult enough."

"Yeah, everyone has worked hard." With a tired smile on Jill's face, as an observer, he took an extraordinary amount of effort in order to see the actions of that high-performance opponent.

"Huh...huh! Brainless girl..." Jost flushed, looking at the scene in front of him, his expression annoyed, but he didn't do anything extra. If he rushed out at this time, Joshua would hate him, Jost thought.

"Ah? Tomboy!"

"What is it! You also escaped?" Although there was no deliberate harassment, the airship landing was still quite dynamic. Although the two were immersed in the joy of reunion, they did not completely ignore all the surrounding movement. So Estelle still noticed this, and Joost, who was watching this scene, was no longer reserved, and simply ridiculed, "Really, it's not good to be caught just like that."

"What are you talking about!" As expected, Estelle exploded, and the two looked at each other, as if sparks flashed.

"Okay, okay, let's take a truce for the time being." "Okay, Jost, don't bully her anymore." Jill and Joshua spoke out at the same time to discourage.

"That's also...well, thank you just now. Without your help, we might not be able to leave safely." Glancing at Jost, Estelle was kind to Dorren and Jill. Like, bow gently.

"As the last battle of the air pirates, the opponent is a heinous criminal organization, and the result is a big victory. You must be very satisfied now?" Heliga said with a smile, although none of the three were injured, but that kind of exhaustion and exhaustion The passion that cannot be concealed underneath cannot be ignored.

"Yeah...Speaking of it, we don't seem to have seen you..." Jill finally noticed a stranger at the scene, "Ah, could it be that big ball of fire..."

After a brief self-introduction, although not everyone knows each other, but soon, you talk to me, and the few people present get acquainted with each other, and chat with each other very happily. Later, because of fear of being caught by the Royal Army, the Capua family took the Bobcat and left first.

"What are you going to do next?" Helija poked at Joshua, who was still immersed in happiness. "You could have blown up that battleship? It's a pity that due to Estiel's appearance, not only did you carefully The prepared plan was not successful, but there was no chance to sneak in."

"Yeah...Estil is really a naughty ghost. But thanks to her, I can be regarded as having passed the biggest difficulty in my life so far..." Joshua looked at Estir's eyes full of Infinitely gentle, "After that, I can only do the same as she said, and act with you?"

"This is natural. If I want to exchange your existing information with the Kingdom Army, the small crime of acting with air pirates will definitely be forgiven soon. But..." Heliga lowered his voice. "One thing I still mind... I thought that associations were just a criminal organization with a lot of tricks... It was difficult to prevent but because there were many masters among them, and they acted secretly. But I can't take this adventure as a criminal organization. I didn’t see... the Red Ark... I’m afraid that even the Empire and the Republic would have to work the entire country to be able to withstand it... Let alone Libel."

"Yeah... I told you from the beginning that fighting against association is an irrational choice." Joshua gave him a white look and then smiled again. "But we two seem to be irrational together."

"Of course... if you don't resist because your opponent is strong, this kind of behavior is really cowardly." Helijia nodded, "but if you know their next plan, it might be more convenient... although their final We have already guessed the plan... well."

"Esteel Bright, please reply when you hear it, please reply when you hear it." When the two were talking, a voice suddenly came from the airship belonging to the association that the three robbed and stopped at the side. His eyes attracted the past.

"Ahhh..." Heliga said in surprise, "I forgot to tell you, because I don't know the band signal of the Bobcat, so I changed the guided wave receiver to the full channel..."

"..."
