Chapter 21: The Night Battle
"Haah~~~ I'm full. Estelle patted her stomach and said, "I didn't expect it to be so delicious." ”
"yes, I didn't expect the food in the army to be so delicious. Joshua said with a smile.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the lounge: "Excuse me. ”
Seeing the soldier walk in, Reilly smiled and said, "The meal was delicious, thank you for your hospitality." ”
"It's just some coarse tea and light rice, if only it could suit your taste. The soldier nodded, and said, "There's another guest just now, you don't mind sharing a room with him, do you?"
"Hmm, there's still a guest at this late hour. Joshua said in surprise.
"Then let him in. Reilly smiled and said.
"That's great. The soldier smiled and said, "Speaking of which, he is still with you." ”
"Huh?"
"Peers?"
Joshua and Estelle were stunned for a moment.
"I didn't expect to meet you here. A red-haired young man with a heavy sword walked in.
"This isn't Agaté. Reilly looked at the red-haired youth and said, "Got a mission?"
"Oh, so you know each other. The soldier looked at Agaté and said, "By the way, have you had dinner?"
"Thanks, I've just eaten it. Agaté nodded and said, "Just let me sleep here for one night." ”
"No problem. The soldier looked at Agaté and then at Reilly, and said, "Allocate your own beds." Good night, everybody. ”
Agaté looked at Joshua and Estelle, and then said to Reilly, "Are the two of them uncle's children?"
"yes. Reilly nodded and said, "I'm taking them to practice, and Sherazade is going back to Lorente." ”
"Practice?"
"Hmm. Estelle nodded and said, "We're aiming for regular guerrillas, and we're going to travel around the kingdom on foot. ”
"Partisans, hiking, circumnavigating the kingdom?" said Agaté in surprise, "what two carefree imps." ”
"Y-What are you talking about?!" Astelle was furious.
"Can a little imp like you become a guerrilla by just a moment?" Agaté pointed to his head and said, "Think about it with common sense, common sense." ”
"Don't underestimate people! we've caught the air thieves before!" Istelle retorted loudly, "And we've got a letter of recommendation, don't treat us like children!"
"I've heard from Mr. Luglan. Agaté stared into Estelle's eyes and said, "Well, I'm going to ask...... If it were just the two of you, would the incident be so easy to solve?Would you have been able to deal with the air thieves without Shelazard?Besides, there is a troublesome character in this incident who can contain Reilly, if you meet that guy, do you think you will come back alive?"
"This, this ......"
“...... I think it's going to be hard. ”
"Of course. The two of you are still fledgling newcomers, and your ability and experience are not enough, and it is easy to make wrong judgments when encountering unexpected events. Agaté shook his head and said, "And you don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and sooner or later you will have to fall into trouble." ”
"W-Why don't you know how thick the sky is?!" said Istelle, pouting, "You are! You are still going up the mountain at this time, do you know how dangerous it is?
"That's different. Reilly shook his head and said, "With Agaté's strength, as long as you don't provoke those overlord-level demonic beasts in the depths of the mountain range, there will be no problem." What's more, he should have a mission this time. ”
"Mission?" Joshua asked.
"yes. Agaté nodded and said, "Your father, force your task to me before you go on a business trip......"
Astelle: "Huh?"
Joshua: "The Father Forced You to ...... Task"
Reilly: "Cassius's predecessors are still so messy......"
“...... Anyway, I have to wake up early tomorrow, and I have to go to bed quickly. Agaté looked at Joshua and Estelle and said, "Don't be verbose, go to bed early." ”
"Hey, do you want to fool around like this?" said Estelle, dissatisfied.
"That's enough, don't bother me again!" Agaté said loudly, "Nosy will only get you in trouble, and I'm doing it for your own good." Wake up early tomorrow and go to Luan to see what's going on on the association's bulletin board. That's ...... What should you do......"
"Hey, wait a minute......"
"Looks like I'm asleep, and I can sleep like Estelle!"
"Don't confuse me with him!" said Estell, dissatisfied, "really, what the hell is this guy thinking?
"What he said is not without reason. Reilly smiled and said, "For you now, it's better not to get involved in some things. If you feel unwilling, try to become stronger. ”
"Got it. "I'm really unwilling. ”
"Huh. Reilly smiled and said, "You guys have a tacit understanding." ”
"Uh......" Joshua blinked, "Let's go to bed early." ”
"Well, although I feel very uncomfortable, I can't help it......" Estil suddenly laughed and said, "Hehe, let's just draw a turtle on his face and teach him a lesson! ”
"Estelle, how old are you?" Reilly sighed and asked, "Three years old?"
"How could it be!" Estelle retorted, "This is the game I played when I was five years old!"
“......”
“......”
As Reilly and Joshua looked at each other, there was a roar outside.
"Joshua, did you hear anything?" said Istelle, uneasy.
"Something seems to have happened. Joshua nodded solemnly.
"I'll go out and see what's going on. With that, Reilly opened the door.
"Wait, I'll go with you too. Agaté jumped out of bed, and then said to Estelle and Joshua, "You two obediently stay here and sleep." ”
"Hey, wait a minute!" Estelle had not finished speaking, and Reilly and Agaté had already run out.
"To be cautious, let's go check it out. Joshua said.
"Of course!"
When the two of them came to the gate, they happened to see the soldiers of the garrison fighting with a group of demon wolves.
Estelle was shocked: "Joshua, let's hurry up and help!"
"Give me back, you don't have to worry about it here. Agaté said unceremoniously.
"Don't we care?!Are you still a guerrilla?," Estelle was furious.
"Estelle, you're mistaken. Reilly smiled and said, "Agaté knows the strength of the garrison, that's why we don't care." It won't be long before the soldiers will destroy this group of demon wolves. ”
"Words, words ...... so"
"He's right! It is the duty of a soldier to guard the gate!" said the captain of the garrison, seeing the opportunity to kill a demon wolf.
"But, but ......"
"It's not time to relax yet!" Reilly frowned and rushed to the other side of the gate.
"Cut ......" Agaté seemed to think of something, and quickly followed.
"What's going on?" Estelle was still a little confused.
"That exit to Luan may also be attacked by demonic beasts!" Joshua said with a solemn face, "Let's go over and have a look!"
Arriving on the other side of the gate, Reilly saw a soldier half-kneeling on the ground, seemingly out of combat. He immediately blessed the other party with hurricane armor, just in time to bounce away a demon wolf that pounced on him.
The next moment, the three demon wolves jumped up at the same time, trying to pounce on the soldiers. However, Agaté, who rushed over, picked up his heavy sword and sent them flying.
Joshua and Estelle had just arrived when they saw such a scene.
"Good, good!"
"It deserves to be the 'Agaté of the heavy sword'. ”
The wolves quickly dispersed, forming an encirclement of Agaté.
"Ha~ want to pinch me?" Agaté raised his eyebrows and said, "A bunch of wild dogs, they really know how to use their brains!"
At this time, Joshua and Estelle also rushed over and stood by Agaté's side.
"Hey, who called you here?" said Agaté, frowning.
"Hehe, we'll come here if we want to. Estelle said with a smile.
"Let's fight together! Estelle and I won't trouble you. Joshua said solemnly.
"Whatever. Agaté waved his heavy sword and said, "But you have to pay attention, my heavy sword is not long-sighted!"
"Hehe, don't underestimate the young people nowadays. With that, Rayleigh blessed the three of them with a few positive spells.
Estelle rushed into the wolves first, then spun like a top. The long stick that rotated at high speed disrupted the formation of the demon wolf, and Joshua and Agaté rushed over and quickly killed the two demon wolves who broke away from the group.
In the next moment, Reilly's Ice Ring spread around Estelle, freezing the surrounding demon wolves into ice cubes.
