It wasn't long before the Hyvass left – they waited and hoped for the day when the family would be truly reunited.

And Hailiga also found Ling who was silently squatting in the corner not far from the room. Sensing Helica's presence, Ling just silently raised her head and looked at the latter with a rare and somewhat timid expression.

"I said......" Seeing Ling's appearance, Heiliga, who had originally planned to preach, also lost his temper all of a sudden, and could only smile bitterly, "If you had already planned to do this...... Can't you have told me sooner? It almost didn't scare me to death. ”

"I'm sorry......" Rei's voice was so low that she could barely hear me, "I...... Just ......"

"Forget it...... Now that I think about it, you did what I told you at the time. Heiliga smiled, "Don't forgive what happened in the past – just let the mindset adjust to the ongoing." Your feelings...... Indeed, they have received it. ”

Hearing this, Ling's body stiffened.

"All in all...... Think of this as the first step between you and your birth parents. The rest is up to you...... It is better to want to repair the relationship at some point in the future, and just stop talking about each other until much later...... It's all your right. They will understand this, no matter how you do it. ”

"Hmm." Hearing this, Ling seemed to have regained some of her spirits, and barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"That's right...... Your father left this ...... before he left It seems that he did take the story I told him seriously. As for the real truth, do you want to tell them...... It's up to you to decide. "Heliga pulled out a large check that Harold had given him before he left," according to his statement...... Even if you haven't really re-accepted them, it's a little bit of compensation they've given you. ”

“…… Thirty million Mira? Not a small number. Ling, who said this, didn't mean to be tempted at all, "Can you give it to them?" ”

"I can't." "He gave me this very sincerely, and that wasn't right at all. ”

"Yes...... Rei whispered, then looked at Helriga, "then...... Leave it to yourself. ”

"No kidding...... "Helliga said solemnly, "I know it's not hard for you to find a way to make as much money...... But if you don't hate them anymore, you still ...... that level of kindness."

"Yes...... Ling snorted, "in that case, I'll take it." ”

"That's right." With that, Helriga shoved the check into Ling's hand, but the latter held his palm firmly and didn't let Helliga do it.

"What is this? ......" Helriga watched Rei's actions in confusion, and the latter suddenly giggled.

"I said I took it...... But I didn't say I would use it. Ling blinked slyly, a bit like the quirky little ghost she had when she first met her—but unlike the liveliness she had at that time, Ling really had a natural feeling now, "It's just a loan to you—you have a lot of money to need, right?" After all, I chose that path......

"That's ......," Heliga graciously admitted, and if nothing else, at least protecting his hometown in the civil war would require a considerable expense.

"Then you take it. Treat it as if I lent it to you. Ling's stubborn appearance was quite cute, "For the sake of the friend's interest, I won't charge you any interest." ”

"This ...... All right. Looking at Ling's inexplicably resolute look, Heiliga was moved and amused, "Then I'll pay attention to ......"

————————————————————————

"So, you earned 30 million mira for nothing?" Estell's eyes were very subtle, "I really don't know what to say......

"Swear to the goddess, it's really unexpected." Remembering that when the two of them talked before, Justel had said that Helliga could always plan far away, how could Helliga not understand what Stephell was teasing now, "And Ling also said...... It's just a temporary loan, and I'll give it back to her. ”

"Let's not talk about that...... How did you communicate about the transportation and follow-up of Patil Matil? Joshua asked, and Ling communicated with Brigadier General Cassius with Estelle shortly after her return, on the one hand, to give Ling a taste of the simple version of the Bright family's welcome ceremony, and on the other hand, to assess the risks and benefits of the existence of "Patil Martier".

"Because of Tida's existence, Ling still trusts Dr. Russell." "I don't know much about the jargon that my dad paraphrased...... But Ling basically didn't seem to have any objections. ”

"Well, if only it could work...... Titah's special weapon......" Joshua said.

"yes...... The sooner she succeeds, Miss Erica will be able to lose her temper with the Doctor less. "What a wonderful relationship between the two of them." ”

Heliga didn't speak, and when it came to Liber's national security issue, he felt that it would be better for him to say less. After all, Liber is a small country with a completely different situation from Erebonia, and naturally it is not the same way to survive.

"You two...... This should be going back soon, right? Heiliga changed the subject, "If I'm not mistaken...... Tomorrow? ”

"yes...... Are you going back to the empire on the same day? Joshua nodded, "Speaking of which, Olivier guy, has you been in touch lately?" ”

"All the time, to be exact." "He had a bold but valuable idea within the empire, and he had been keeping an eye on that project...... I should have participated a long time ago, but because of Ling's affairs, it has been delayed until now. ”

"Hmph, that's the only thing I should thank you for." Istelle said, "Helped Ling...... It can even help him start repairing his relationship with his biological parents...... "Although there are some delicate feelings, Estelle is really happy for Rei.

"It's just a crooked hit." If Estelle was simply happy that Ling could go further, then Helliga was relieved that Ling was beginning to understand the meaning of what she was saying - a Ling who could let go of her resentment would surely bloom with true brilliance.

"......" Estelle and Joshua glanced at each other, a deep sense of helplessness in their eyes.

"What's wrong, you two?" Heliga was confused, what was the couple singing?

"Nothing...... I just think sometimes you're a bit sluggish. Estelle's words made Helliga even more confused, "Forget it...... Sooner or later, you'll ...... No, it's better never to know. ”

"So, what are you doing awkwardly......"
