Chapter Eighty-Nine: Restlessness
。 Cold high altitude.
A behemoth flying alone in the night, shimmering with a faint light.
Sophia looked thoughtfully at the scenery outside the window, even though there was nothing outside the window.
A cold wind blew, and Sophia shivered.
The only thing she could do was to pull the cold jacket tighter.
The affairs of the Republic of Monis also ended in that fire. Since then, neither the Night Stalkers, nor the Necromancer, nor the mysterious Black Knight nor her fellow pirates have ever bothered Sophia or anyone else. Although there are many clues left, the partners are also tired of following and tracking.
Since the purpose of the attack was to lure Sophia back to St. Pope's Island, why did they do what they wanted? In addition, although Joyka didn't say anything, Sophia and Cassius both knew that because of Elizabeth's affairs, Joyka didn't want to stay in the sad land of Monis. So the three of them returned to the airship again.
After a series of twists and turns, the voyage to the Remunker camp was finally ready to go.
"Why don't you go to rest?" said Joika, who came behind her, and said a kind repertoire, "You've been standing for more than two hours. ”
Because the airship had been soaked in water before, and had been discarded in the mountains full of snakes, chickens, and beasts for a long time, even though Cassius repaired it, some parts still lost their effectiveness. As a result, the ship's ability to fly automatically is lost, and it must be controlled by manual mana. So before arriving at their destination, Cassius and Sophia had to take turns controlling the zhì (Cassius had taught Sophia how to operate the airship before taking off), and each of them had to be on duty for an average of several hours a day.
Sophia had just left the cab after dark, and instead of sleeping or eating, she came to the window and stood motionless for more than two hours. Although Joyka is not magical, she also knows that adequate rest is very important for the recovery of her magical power, and like Sophia is doing now, she is only overexerting her body.
"I'm not tired, thank you. Sophia barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "I'm just suddenly feeling a little restless." ”
"Restless?"
"Hmm...... Maybe it's because I'm getting to the Avenger camp. Anyway, you don't have to worry about me. ”
"Really?"
Joyka ended the conversation between the two with a skeptical rhetorical question. He understood why Sophia felt uneasy, saying that it was because she was about to reach her destination, and this reason was not logical, and the real reason was that she was worried about someone in a distant place. But Sophia herself didn't want to say it, and Joyka didn't pierce the window paper.
Of course, there are also Joyka's personal considerations. In fact, Joey Ka knows better than anyone that in Sophia's heart, he may always be just a partner who lives and dies together, but no matter how Joika convinces herself, she can't let go of this girl in her heart.
In this regard, Joyka could only sigh silently in her heart.
However, just as this defense was slackened, a force of griffons, carrying heavily armed knights on their backs, took advantage of the darkness to quietly approach the airship......
