Chapter 100: Before the Dinner

Thanks to the efforts of everyone, Richard's carefully planned coup ended in complete failure. General Morgan and Lieutenant Colonel Sid reacted immediately and successfully cleaned up the civil strife in the Kingdom Army, and the relevant personnel of the Ministry of Intelligence who participated in the coup d'état or played a key role in the coup were also arrested in the first place.

Richard was personally ordered by Cassius and imprisoned in a secret base somewhere - why an order? Because Cassius had already decided to resign from his position as a guerrilla and rejoin the kingdom's army. According to him, this is also part of what he said to Richard to "no more running away". Of course, the disappointment of the Guerrilla Association and his former colleagues was obvious.

On the night after the coup d'état, Olivier was brutally dragged away by Mura, who had rushed to hear the news. Dr. Russell, along with Tita and a large number of technicians from Chase Central Workshop, who rushed to hear the news, gave a comprehensive analysis of the primeval civilization contained in the ruins underground, including the great robot fantasy music that was almost completely destroyed. The post-disaster reconstruction work was also very important, and a large number of guerrillas from local branches rushed to the royal capital to support, so that the association in the royal capital was not too busy. There were a lot of troubles, but no one complained—because the Queen's real birthday celebration was just around the corner, and it was especially important at this special moment, under special circumstances.

Of course, good things are not without it. Estelle and Joshua successfully obtained the qualification certificate of regular guerrilla, setting a new record for the youngest member of the association to obtain the qualification of regular guerrilla; Cassius returned to the army to carry out a strict scrutiny, and unexpectedly discovered many undercurrents that shook the foundations of the kingdom's rule.

As for Heliga, after recovering from his coma, he was treated at such a high level that he felt incredible even to himself. Not only were they allowed to recuperate and heal their injuries in the royal city where the queen was located, but there were also doctors sent by the royal family - of course, the results of the examination were naturally that the person himself was extremely healthy, but the strength was overused, and the body was able to withstand it, causing him to fall asleep——。 Whether it was a member of the personal guard or a soldier of the Kingdom Army, they all looked respectful when they saw him. As she walked through the courtyard, the warm greetings that appeared from time to time also bothered Heiliga.

"Alas...... Really, I can now understand what the sons of those great nobles feel......" Having just sent off a palace maid who had come to greet him warmly, Helliga and Faye leaned back on the benches in the courtyard together, "this kind of entertainment and treatment...... Hey, I don't know how they survived. ”

"Isn't that good?" Fei tilted her head, she had never experienced this feeling, after all, most of the time the hunters were unsightly underground existences, and they could not appear on the table openly.

"I'm still not used to it...... I always felt like they were overreacting. Heliga shook her head, "It's just that the guards are grateful that we saved Captain Yulia...... Ordinary soldiers also ......"

"yes, that's a little weird." Fei nodded, "Maybe it's just a momentary enthusiasm, right?" After all, there is a legend in the royal capital that you "dismantle fantasy music with your bare hands", maybe they are just curious about what such a person is. ”

“…… Maybe that's the case, although the truth is probably very different from what they imagined. "Anyway, wait a little longer, you can look forward to the banquet in the evening." There are delicious foods. His gaze caught Fei's puzzled eyes, and Helriga added.

"That's right...... Although I think the marching rations are actually pretty much the same. ”

"You're talking like that again...... Replenishing energy is the first priority, but it's also important to enjoy the delicious taste of the food itself. You're not a hunter anymore, so don't always put your thinking into your normal life. ”

"Yo, two, it's very lively." Estelle's greeting interrupted the casual conversation between the two, "Heliga, your body has recovered?" ”

"Hmm...... It's okay, it's just a little uncomfortable. The doctor said it was better for me not to do strenuous activity for a week. Heliga nodded, "Congratulations, Estelle, Joshua. The youngest full-time guerrilla in history? Well? ”

"Huh...... We're still far from it. Joshua said, "Well, the supper is about to begin, and won't you go back to the courtyard?" ”

"Wait a minute, there's still time. It's so noisy that I'm here mainly for the quiet. Heiliga said distressedly.

"Ahaha...... Understandable. Estelle laughed dryly, she also knew what the boy was worried about, after all, in the noisy venue, Heliga was always stopped and pestered by all kinds of curious babies, "Well, we'll see you later." ”

"Hmm...... See you later. ”

"Ah...... Joshua. Faye suddenly spoke up and stopped Joshua, who was visibly stunned.

"What's wrong?" Joshua's voice was a little flustered for some reason, and Hyrica and Phet were puzzled to hear it.

"Nothing...... It's just that...... You have unwiped cream on the corners of your mouth. Fei pointed to the corner of her mouth.

"Ahh It's ice cream you just ate, right? Estelle kindly wiped the corners of Joshua's mouth, "Really, Joshua, who has always been serious and calm, would be so sloppy in his image~ Is it really because he is too nervous?" Or are you too excited to become a guerrilla? Sister, I'm so happy~"

“…… Obviously, from the perspective of the role of taking care of people, I am the elder brother. After a pause, Joshua replied as usual, though it still seemed a little unnatural to Heliga, "Thanks for the reminder, Fe." Well, we'll see you later. ”

Joshua and Estelle walked away, while Faye and Haliga stood where they were, thoughtful. After a long time, Fei Cai asked softly, "Joshua...... Is there something on your mind? ”

"I think ...... too Did something happen at the celebration? And...... "Helliga mused," the atmosphere of his whole being ...... It's changed. ”

"Heliga feels this way, too?"

"Hmm...... If he gave people the impression of being calm and wise before, now he has more of a killing intent waiting for an opportunity...... Not for anyone, but for the way this itself exists...... But he at least pretended to look similar to before. It's lame, and only a fool like Estelle can't see it. ”

"Exactly...... What's wrong? ”

“…… I don't know. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a reason, and Heiliga finally gave up thinking, "Forget it." It's almost time for us to go in...... Let's go back and change our clothes first. For dinner, do you want to wear a more formal dress? Probably? ”

The words of Hyliga and Phyta did not reach the ears of Joshua, who seemed to be wearing a false mask. But his heart is a mess at the moment.

"Sister...... Levy...... What the hell should I do......" whispered in the depths of his soul, and naturally no one would hear it.
