It was night, in the woods not far behind Bright's house, a dark figure was about to leave quietly.

Almost every morning, a dark shadow will appear near Bright's house, waiting, wandering, guarding, waiting for the sunshine in my heart, wandering in my heart of the lost, guarding the woman in my heart......

Joshua. Astorey, the name of the Shadow.

Estelle. Bright, the one the Shadow wants to protect.

As a guarded being, Esther didn't know that the person she wanted to see was so close to her, and as a protector, Joshua didn't want to meet the other party.

Do you want to? Or can't?

In the past three months, Joshua has asked himself more than once, obviously he loves each other more than anyone else, and he wants to give each other happiness more than anyone else, but in the end, he has never dared to face the girl who tasted the forbidden fruit with him.

Ah, now, I guess it's the mother of my own child.

Thinking of this, the corners of the black shadow's mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, sixteen-year-old father, hehe~ If Sister Karin was still around, maybe it would have been known to everyone, and Levi's words would probably step up the pursuit of Sister Karin.

But...... These dream-like scenes were destroyed in the war that eroded everything!

Yes, Joshua is an avenger, but unlike Levi, perhaps because he has been with Estelle for too long, his revenge has long faded, and what remains in his heart now may be called 'guardian'.

Protect the girl in front of you from being hurt by the minions of the association, and protect the safety of each other's mother and child...... That's probably the only way to do it. After that, I can go to the association with peace of mind. Or rather, 'white-faced' revenge.

Thereupon. Joshua turned into a shadow and hovered around Estelle all day long, turning into a tenacious blade to sweep away all enemies in front of him if he went out to Lotriente, and if he stayed at home, he hid in the corner where he used to hide and seek with Estelle, watching each other quietly through the cracks in the window......

Pity. It's coming to an end today.

Joshua sighed in his heart, since Ah Zhai had returned to Lotrente, then Estelle's safety would naturally not be a problem anymore, and it was time for him to retire......

Thinking so, Joshua couldn't help but turn around, wanting Zuihou to glance at the girl sitting by the window......

"Why don't you go in and see her?" At this moment, a voice suddenly came into his ears from behind Joshua, causing goosebumps to tremble throughout his body, "Who?!" ”

As he spoke, Joshua threw out the flashbang in his hand. At the same time, he kicked his feet and quickly rushed towards the other party.

The flashbang streaked through the air in an almost straight arc. It then landed unmistakably in front of the speaker...... It's a pity, I don't know weishenme, I should have released a bright flashbang at this time, but at this time, it was as if the lead had not been pulled, just lying there quietly, like an ordinary marble.

Joshua himself was in the same situation as the flashbang, and the moment he drew his twin swords and rushed at the other party, a huge restraining force appeared around him, and with each move, the more he was restrained, as if he was a prey trapped in a spider's web, and the more he struggled, the tighter the spider silk became entangled.

Eventually, Joshua took only two steps forward before he was transformed into a 'human statue'.

"Is that how you treat your friends, Joshua. Brett? Looking at Joshua, who could not do anything but convey anger through his eyes, the owner of the voice suddenly burst out laughing, and as his words increased, Joshua's eyes quickly filled with surprise.

"Otaku?!" I don't know when the restraints on Joshua began to lighten, and at the same time, Joshua also said the name of the friend he hadn't seen for a long time, "You're going to be here?" ”

"I can't be here?" Faced with Joshua's question, Ah Zhai couldn't help but smile and asked rhetorically, "Or do you think I'll go back with Kolos and the others in the afternoon?" ”

In the afternoon, after solving the problem of Estelle's delivery time, Ah Zhai and his party did return to Loliente with Sheila, but for Ah Zhai who has 'spiritual perception', Joshua, who has been hiding not far from Bright's house, is like a firefly in the night, and before entering Bright's house, Ah Zhai has actually discovered each other.

It's just that, because Estelle was by his side, Ah Zhai didn't go to Joshua for the first time, but waited until night fell and everything was quiet, and then he came here first.

Joshua was silent when he heard this, with Ah Zhai's current strength, it was naturally easy to deceive himself, and if the other party was willing, it was not impossible to knock himself out and bring him back to Estiel's side silently, but Ah Zhai didn't do this, that is, he wasn't ready to meddle in his own affairs?

"With Estelle's character, do you think you can escape without the restraints of children?" As if he had seen through Joshua's thoughts, Azhai said suddenly.

“…… Probably not. "What kind of character is Estelle, how can Joshua not know, if something really goes wrong with her, then she will not stand idly by and say anything hiding in the shadows, and at that time, she will really fall into the net.

"So, I'm just going to watch you guys and help Estelle solve the child's problem at most." Ah Zhai spread his hands, looking like I was a good person, "As for the aiqing long-distance run between the two of you, it depends on your own thoughts." ”

Ah Zhai stepped forward as he spoke, and patted Joshua's shoulder gently, which was exactly the same as when he persuaded his friend, but probably only Ah Zhai himself knew what kind of liliang he contained in the palm of Joshua's shoulder.

'Light', 'Hope' and 'Miracle'......

The artificial stigma that Whiteface Wiseman inflicted on Joshua contained a large amount of negative liliang, which was very different from the stigmata of the guardian knights, who were both good and evil, but. Such liliang. It's the easiest thing for a house to deal with. As a dream angel, Ah Zhai itself represents light and holiness, coupled with the brilliance of the third wing of 'hope', Wiseman's artificial stigma was destroyed almost instantly.

And all this was just a momentary happening, except that Joshua felt that he suddenly felt as if he had broken through some kind of restraint. It hasn't changed much, and Ah Zhai is smiling slightly, as if he hasn't done anything.

……

In the next few days, with the addition of Ah Zhai, the Guerrilla Guild commission of the Lorente branch suddenly began to decline at the same rate as when the Juggernaut was there, and if people who were not in the know, they might think that Cassius had returned, or that there were more than two A-class guerrillas.

But in the eyes of those in the know, more. But I was still shocked and surprised.

The little quasi-guerrilla who couldn't even carry out the mission out of the city has now become an existence comparable to the Sword Master. Whether it is dealing with the commission in the city or hunting for the monsters in the streets, Ah Zhai can complete it as quickly as possible, and even Cassius will spend some time searching for the commission, Ah Zhai can complete it all in just half an hour.

Such a feat, there is no problem at all for an A-class guerrilla!

Ataku did not object to Aina's promotion of her guerrilla rank to A-class, but instead asked Aina to hand over a letter to Croze, who was about to go to the guerrilla headquarters, hoping that he would pass it on to the head of the guerrilla association after arriving at the guerrilla headquarters......

If Ah Zhai's life in the past few days is like that of an ordinary guerrilla, then Klos and the Mad Three are more like psychotherapists.

Every morning, they would go to Bright's house, where they would spend the day chatting with Estelle. Ever since she slept on the bed made by the house, Estelle's belly had been growing at a rate visible to the naked eye. Although he had already prepared for it, Estelle still had emotions such as fear and fear, and at this time, it was Kloss's turn to appear, although they had never given birth, but under the guidance of a group of undisciplined mothers, Kross and Kurumi, as well as Apricot, who was often hardpulled over to observe, had considerable theoretical experience.

Speaking of that theory, every time I can bluff Estile into a stunned place, as for the troubles or something, it has long been accompanied by these prenatal education guidance that has a fight with the guide jishu, all of which have been expelled from Estelle's brain......

If there is any unpleasant influence, it is probably that Tida, Ling, and Liliana, who are in the audience, return to the hotel every day with red faces.

Oh, I want to mention it a little here, maybe because of Ling's hints, or because of the fact that Kolos and the others turned a blind eye, and in the past few days, Tita didn't know that Weishenme was particularly sticky to Ah Ota. Every day when Tita returns to the hotel, Tita will always be in the room, with delicious dishes on the table, and the bathroom is already full of hot water. Or take a shower first? Or is it ...... Eat, me? So maybe Ah Zhai will really be beastly and do something enviable...... The unforgivable comes.

Fortunately, Tita is not the kind of carnivorous girl after all, although she has taken the initiative in many ways, but all this without disturbing the normal relationship between Ah Zhai and Kros. As for the change in Tida, everyone's reactions are also different, Ataku is painful and happy, Kolos is smiling, Mad San is dispensable, Liliana is silently envious, Ling is excited and happy, and Apricot is ...... Huh? What does it have to do with apricots? Well, she's been working hard lately to surpass Yuyuko in terms of food! Although, the probability of success is infinitely close to zero......

If there is no accident, after the child is born on the seventh day of Estiel, Ah Zhai and the others will set off to return to the royal capital. It's a pity that the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and the event that was supposed to happen only as an event in various places of the gospel of association was suddenly staged in advance - Lotrente, foggy!

There's nothing terrible about fogging, but what if someone suddenly can't wake up in the middle of such a fog?

The White Shadow of Luan, the Earthquake of Chase, the Tea Party of the Royal Capital, the Smog of Lorente, and the Dragon of Perth......

In terms of danger, the smog in Loliente should be considered the second-to-last, only slightly more dangerous than the white shadow of Luan. But. If you keep it like this, don't care. Then zuihou evolved. It's that the entire territory of the Liber Kingdom is shrouded in white mist, zuihou, whether it's the queen or the commoners, all of them fall into a coma as if they were hypnotized, and at that time, the Jihua of the association was also successful.

In public and private, Ah Zhai will not let such a thing happen, therefore. On the morning of the seventh day, when someone fainted in the White Mist, and as Estel approached the brink of childbirth, he took Koloth, Kurumi, and Sherazad, who had been forcibly followed, to the Mystic Forest, where the incident began.

And Apricot, Liliana, Tita and others who were left behind were at Bright's house to protect Estelle and help her give birth to a child......

A team of three silver-level powerhouses, the momentum it exudes is so imposing that ordinary demonic beasts can't get close at all, and soon after entering the mysterious forest, Ah Zhai and the others came to the huge ancient tree in the deepest part.

"Although I have learned about you from the 'professor' for a long time, it seems that I still underestimate you a little now." In front of the ancient tree. Standing stood a woman with long green ponytail and hair, dressed in a black revealing witch costume. A huge portion of the boobs and the entire navel are exposed. It's just that, unlike her charming figure, the woman's words seemed quite flat, and then, as if talking to herself, she suddenly muttered, "Well, do you want to retreat now?" ”

"Sister Luciola!" Before Ah Zhai could speak, Shelazadeh in the team let out a complicated shout, looking at the woman in front of her who had been close to her since she was a child, she didn't know what expression she should use to face the other party at this time.

Luciola and Sheila used to be members of a circus, and during their time in the circus, the members of the circus were like a big family, with a leader who was like everyone's father, Luciola who was like a sister, and other kind members...... Those years, even for Shira now, are an unforgettable memory.

Although it was not known later that the head of Weishenme and Luciola would disappear and the circus would be disbanded, Xuera Zuihou still chose to wait in the place of Loriente, waiting for the return of the two and waiting for the re-formation of the circus.

So, a month, two months, three months...... One year, two years, three years......

If it weren't for Cassius's later words, "Idle is idle anyway, it's better to be a guerrilla", maybe Shera would have died in this endless wait, right?

And today, Luciola, who used to be like a sister, finally returned, but unfortunately, it was Elibel's enemy and the executor of the association......

On the one hand, there is the duty of a guerrilla, and on the other hand, there is the former sisterhood, which makes the Shalazadeh, who is caught in the middle, not know how to choose, perhaps, it would be better to be kept in the valley without coming today, right?

Maybe it was because she saw Sheila's struggle, or maybe there was some other reason, but Luciola suddenly spoke at this time, "Shela, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect you to become a guerrilla, but it's okay, anyway, the circus can't be restored, because ...... Javier: He's already been killed by me! ”

"What?!" After hearing Luciola's words, Shira's whole face turned white, "How is it possible?!" Obviously, Sister Luci Ola, your favorite is the head of the group! ”

"Well, it's a bit rude to interrupt my sister's chat, but I still want to say something." Luciola hadn't answered, but Ah Zhai, who had been hanging for a while, interjected first, "Please take down the gospel, I can act as if nothing happened." ”

Sheila looked at Ah Zhai in disbelief, she didn't expect the other party to say such words, "Have you forgotten your duty as a guerrilla?!" ”

"I've never forgotten the fact that I protect the common people and everything else." Ataku shrugged his shoulders and pointed his finger at his brain, "Or do you want to fight your sister?" ”

"......" Sheila was silent, but Luciola, who was standing in the distance, did not stop her movements, "Hehe, it seems that you know your goal better than Sheila." ”

"So, is it demolition? Or hit? Ataku didn't answer the other party's words, and as he spoke, Klos and Kurumi on his side had already taken a prepared posture, and as soon as Luciola shook her head, they would immediately launch the most fierce attack.

Perhaps it was the previous words about the duties of the guerrillas that played a role, or the fact that she wanted to ask Luciola why she had killed the regimental commander, and that Sherazade seemed to have finally made up her mind at this time, shook the leather whip in her hand, and then, like Koros, pointed at Luciola.

"I may not be able to beat you, but I'm an illusionist." I don't know Weishenme, Luciola actually showed a rather happy smile at this time, "Next, please enjoy my illusion performance." ”

With that, Luciola began to dance, not fast, but very rhythmic, under such a dance, Sheila almost only lasted for a moment, and was pulled into the illusion by the other party.

"Do you think such an illusion will work for us?" Looking at Luciola, who was still dancing there, Ah Zhai couldn't help but feel a little strange, the other party should be quite aware of the strength of the two sides, and that was a gap that could not be erased by illusion...... Or is there something wrong with this?!

Thinking like this, Ah Zhai couldn't help but look at the gospel that was embedded in the ancient tree, and at this moment, it was exuding an unprecedented emerald green light! (To be continued......)
