She just raised her eyes with difficulty and looked at the night sky.

But at least, in the end—

This monster thing -

……

Lily shook her tiny feet.

The magical power of the body almost exceeded the limit of the shackles.

Even though she was very careful and used incomplete magic, the opponent's attack still almost made Lily go too far.

The shackles were finally repaired, but Lily still felt uncomfortable.

Putting aside the unhappiness, Lily carefully walked towards Ai'er who was carefully protecting her.

"……it's over?"

With Lily's help, Elle was able to sit up with some difficulty.

Although the magic circuit is still painful at times.

I guess——

Lily looked in the direction of Odyssey.

The angel girl's eyes had lost their luster.

however.

"What is that?..."

There seemed to still be a stiff voice, coming out hoarsely from there:

"…Report: The expedition…failed…Wanted level AA, codename E[lf]AA56HJ12JK, Al Bernier, danger level AB…"

"Wanted level AA, registered code name U[nknown]SA15HJ5V16B, historical code name [none], Unknown... No historical identity information of this person has been found, creating a record... Danger level SA+..."

That is--

Lily subconsciously reached out her hand, and a new pattern formed on her fingertips.

"… Stop it, Lily."

Ai'er also heard the voice over there: "It's too late."

Lily hesitated and put her hand down.

Lily knew it too.

The messages that were sent could no longer be blocked.

That had already been written down and transmitted when we first came into contact with it, through the world that had not yet disappeared.

This is just a supplement to the previous paragraph.

"What to do, Elle?"

Do you want to kill him?

Lilac eyes looked at Elle.

"...Just leave her there. She can't move anyway...Those lower-level angels. They're all madmen who blew themselves up."

Sorry, Lily.

"And if the foul becomes more serious... that would be even more troublesome."

There are other penalties for killing the referee.

Just seal her there for now.

After that, there should be other angels coming to collect it.

Lily didn't object.

He just seemed inexplicably well-behaved.

Watching Lily fiddle with the angel for a while, confirming that the sealing technique could at least cause some trouble to those people, Ai'er sat for a while and then lay back down.

Even standing up straight now still seems difficult.

It’s better to take a rest first.

62. Escape

Seeing Ai'er lying down again, Lily did not urge him. After she finished fiddling with him, she just sat quietly beside Ai'er, staring at the scenery in the distance.

There are still holes left from the broken trees on the side.

It's just that the moonlight is very quiet.

Neither of them was in a hurry to go back. Ai'er's physical condition made it difficult for her to walk back. And for Lily, there was no point in going back.

She was just accompanying Elle.

"Where's Coco?"

Elle asked suddenly.

"Fell asleep."

Lily replied.

"That's it."

Speechless.

silence.

"Lily..."

Ai'er's voice was strangely hoarse, as if she was asking for something. Realizing that Ai'er seemed to have something to say, Lily obediently moved closer to Ai'er.

When they got closer, Ai'er asked:

"Lily, when was it..."

When?

Lily recalled what happened when she came out of Soller City.

Something just didn’t feel right all the time.

Something was hiding in the sun, looking at Ai'er and her group.

So Lily was actually very worried about Elle, and she tampered with the communication gem between her and Elle.

I just didn't tell Ai'er because it was too troublesome.

I wonder if Ai'er will be angry.

"That's it."

As expected, Ai'er was not angry. She just rubbed her head against Lily and rested her head on Lily's legs. After all, it was her own fault that she accidentally got the hint and was led to separate from Lily.

Angels occupy the sky, which is an advantage that other races do not have.

Lily trembled subconsciously when her limbs were touched, but she suppressed the movement.

Ai'er looks a little tired now.

If you just lean on it...

However, El buried his head in Lily's body again.

An unclear murmur came out of Ai'er's mouth:

"…I was…really scared…"

Lily was stunned in surprise.

"In the end... I didn't even know what to do... I almost couldn't even build a defense... Then I thought about things that happened a long time ago that no one knew about... And I thought about Lily and Coco..."

Ai'er's voice had a sticky, whispering quality, with faint sobs and slight tremors.

Is that... or is that crying?

The unexpected reaction even made Lily unable to imagine that it was the usual Elle.

Obviously, the impression that Ai'er gave Lily was that he was reliable, mature, and the one who gave her food and comfort... Lily liked this kind of Ai'er very much.

But no matter how powerful the opponent is, he will unexpectedly have such a seemingly fragile side.

How should I react?

After thinking for a long time, she still couldn't make a decision. So Lily didn't move.

Elle's trembling stopped.

"…I'm sorry, Lily."

She wiped her eyes.

As if to comfort her, Lily finally rubbed Ai'er's head.

"Don't worry, El. I'll be with you, El."

El looked at Lily in surprise.

Being stared at like that, even Lily felt a little embarrassed.

Imitating Ai'er's way of comforting others... Is there something wrong with this... or something like that...

Lily was quite nervous, but the next moment she was hugged by Ai'er:

"Wuwuwu...Lily...Lily..."

…all repeated syllables.

Did comfort work?

But why does it seem worse...
