The trail of the sky The light belongs to you

The scheduled ship was missing, and her father's whereabouts were also unknown—although this was a big blow to the girl who was always as bright as the sun, it was still not a reason for her depression.

The next day, Estier and Joshua planned to go to Perth with the company of Shirazade to confirm the news of Cassius. Since the regular ship could not operate, the three could only choose to walk.

At the same time... It is also a test of my father's teaching - to protect a piece of land, you must first have a look at it with your feet on the ground.

After the three came to the association, they learned that Onasa had accepted another mission from Cassius and had rushed to Perth to join her partner.

After a long journey, Estier and the others finally came to the northern block of Perth...

The huge building with a green roof stands in the center of the North Block, and people of all kinds come and go from every entrance of the supermarket. Perth Supermarket has a wide range of goods and hospitable stores, even for first-time visitors. Tourists can also feel the vitality of Perth's economic market.

Stepping into the gate of the Guerrilla Association, they saw the familiar golden color...

The blond girl turned around and greeted with a smile, "Estier, Joshua, Miss Shera, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Onasa~!" Seeing the reappearance of the friend who had just met but suddenly left, Estier couldn't hide the joy in her heart, "That's great...! Just now I was wondering if there was a chance to meet again... "

"Hello," Joshua followed behind, nodding his head slightly, "Speaking of which... are you waiting for us for something?"

"Well... in the meantime..." Onasa put away her smile, her expression suddenly became serious, "about Mr. Cassius... I've heard what Grandpa Luglan said... although it's just speculation, However, Mr. Cassius is at the peak of both martial arts and judgment, so there must be no problem."

"En...! Thank you..." Hearing Onasa's concern from the bottom of her heart, Estier's face blushed unconsciously.

"Then...about what I'm waiting for you," Onasa took out the handbook she carried with her, "I went to Perth not long ago to investigate something with my partner... It's inconvenient to say what it is, anyway, after investigation We thought it might be related to the regular ship incident, so we separated, and I came to Perth to investigate the disappearance..."

"So... that means that Onasa will act with us next?"

"Yes...if it doesn't trouble you."

"Of course not~"

"Skillful swordsmanship, dexterous magic...No matter in terms of experience, technology, or sensitivity, he is undoubtedly a right-hand man." Shera narrowed her green eyes slightly, and immediately agreed.

"Hehe...then, please give me your advice."

"Then..." At this time, the slightly older grandfather behind the counter spoke, "It seems that you have reached an agreement... Let me introduce myself first. I am the person in charge of the Perth branch. Regarding the disappearance of the ship, let’s briefly explain the situation.”

Although the person in charge of the army responsible for the scheduled boat incident had prejudice against the guerrillas, which hindered the investigation, thanks to the recommendation of the Mayor of Perth, Ms. As a ranger, go to the gate of Harken to learn about the situation - as Miss Maybelle's emissary.

"By the way..." Estier suddenly thought of something while walking on the road leading to Harken's gate, "Onasha has a companion who is investigating together... Has that person gone to investigate alone now?"

"Yes... how should I put it," Onasa smiled awkwardly, "He and I are both villagers of Ravenu Village, and we have known each other since we were very young...maybe...investigate separately It would be more appropriate for him."

Speaking of this, Onasa's blue eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and the bright color was slightly dimmed, but this was only for a moment...

"Miss Sheila should know him too, Agathe Kolosner." Putting away the sadness in her eyes, Onasa put on that bright and gentle expression again.

"So that's it... is it "Epee Sword" Agathe?"

"Hey... Joshua, do you know him too?"

"I don't know him, I just heard about it. Being able to cut the enemy in front of him in half with an epee is also a person of extraordinary strength."

"……arrive."

The conversation was interrupted by Shirazade's short words. What the four of them saw was a majestic building, its strength is self-evident, and on the other side of the "Haken Gate"— The Erebonian Empire, which is in a complicated relationship with Liber.

After waiting for a while and getting to know a strange blond youth, Estier and the others finally entered the office of General Morgan, the person in charge of the Harken Gate.

After taking off the guerrilla badge, and relying on the letter of introduction from Mayor Maybelle, Estier and the others learned the surprising results of the military investigation——

The chances of the airship falling into Lake Valyria are slim,

In the morning, an organization made a criminal voice and demanded a ransom,

The name of this organization is "The Capua Family",

"This is an organization running around in the Perth area...why, have you even heard about them?"

"Not only have I heard of it, but I have also fought against them in the mysterious forest..."

"Estier!" Joshua at the side quickly grabbed Estier's arm, trying to stop it...but it was too late.

Estier's face suddenly became embarrassed, while the expression of the general in front of him gradually became clouded...

"Oops……"

"Haha...you idiot." Shirazade couldn't help rubbing his forehead... He was very helpless and made a mistake at such a critical time.

"Leaving aside the concealment of identity, he actually blatantly defrauded the military." Morgan's hands slowly clenched into fists, "It seems that guerrillas' credibility is nothing more than that..."

"What... isn't it because you didn't inform the Guerrilla Association of the situation..."

"What a joke! How can such an important matter involve a non-governmental organization..."

Just as Estier was about to fight back, Onasa at the side let out a sigh, "Please... just enough is enough..."

The other three opened their eyes wide in surprise, and the normally elegant girl suddenly let out a voice as low as ice... Those blue eyes narrowed into a slit, and there was infinite contempt and anger in the eyes.

"One by one civil organization... If it wasn't because of your military's ineffectiveness, how could Mayor Maybell entrust us to investigate the situation?

Always relying on his own position and power, he does not believe in the change that cooperation with guerrillas can bring about, but stubbornly believes that his own power is enough...

If it is really enough... then how could it be...! ! "

Onasa suddenly stopped her fierce words just now, and the anger in her eyes gradually subsided, but...as if thinking of some distant memory, even her right hand that was placed on the general's table began to tremble slowly...

"...Huh..." Onasa took a few steps back, took a deep breath, and regained her composure, "In short, I hope you can realize that only one side's efforts are..."

"shut up!!!"

"Wow... woo wa..." "It's almost like a lion's roar..."

Morgan, who was furious, immediately ordered the rest of the soldiers to drive the four out of the office, and they came to the gate after a while of pushing and shoving... and in the strange lute playing by the blond young man just now, this failed battle ended like this negotiate.

Everyone, along with the blond young man—Olivier Langheim, a performer and poet from the empire, returned to the tavern for a short rest.

"Although the final result was not very good... Anyway, I got the general information." Shirazade looked at the situation recorded in the manual.

"Well...although it became very strange in the end..."

"But it was resolved peacefully anyway, and I thank you anyway."

"Oh...you don't need to be so polite, how about asking me for a day as a thank you?" Olivier took out a rose from nowhere and invited Shirazade.

"I refuse. First of all, there's no time for that."

"Ah...that's just a pity," Olivier spread his hands, and immediately shifted his target, "Then how about Joshua-kun, or Onasa?"

"...I, I'll forget it..." Joshua moved his body back to the back of the chair, and couldn't help feeling afraid of the person in front of him...

"..."

"... Onasa?"

"...Ah, ah? What? What's the matter?" The girl seemed to wake up from a dream, and came back from a daze, and found that the other four people were staring at her.

"Could it be, are you thinking about what happened just now?" Joshua asked his own question.

"Well, it's a bit..." Onasha put down her left hand resting on her chin, and said in a serious tone, "I was too emotional just now, in fact, there is still room for redemption if I negotiate well... So, I am very sorry, obviously it is to assist But it seems to be causing trouble for everyone."

"It's nothing, we have already obtained the information we need," Estier smiled, and put her hand on Onasha's shoulder, "Don't worry about it!"

"That's right...sometimes being too responsible will put too much burden on yourself..."

"No...I..."

"Huh..." Olivier laughed suddenly, just when everyone thought he would say something comforting, "So it turns out...the melancholy girl is really charming, with blue eyes that seem to be crying... ... How about a date with me for a day, ma'am? Let me soothe your income-stricken soul..."

"..."

What was ushered in was just a speechless silence from the four of them...

The investigation at the Harken Gate came to an end temporarily, and the five returned to downtown Perth. Olivier and Perth were attracted by its scenery, and rushed to their destination with great interest, while the rest returned to Perth. Association, reported the obtained information to Lugland.Afterwards, she also told Maybelle about the situation, and at the same time met Neil and Dorothy who were also investigating the regular ship incident...

So, everyone came up with an idea—to use their existing information to exchange the information he had with Neil, who was rejected by Maybelle.

They learned that someone in the village of Lavenu in the west had witnessed a huge shadow flying in the sky. Although the military found nothing after investigation, everyone still thought that the military might have missed it, so... went to Lavenu again Wennu Village.

On the Ravenu Mountain Pass, they met Agathe.

"Oh?" The figure of the red-haired young man slowly appeared from the shelter of the mountain road, "Onasha, I met you, so that's why... The one who investigated the airship incident is Sherazade..."

"Exactly. By the way, what's the situation on your side..."

"As usual, by the way, I heard that the airship matter is related to the sky pirates... Work hard, I'm relieved to have you here..."

"...Don't act like it's none of your business. No one said anything about it back then, but they refused to help with the investigation here."

"I can't help it," Agathe said with embarrassment, "I feel uncomfortable when I think of negotiating with the army..."

He suddenly stopped talking, but saw the other two standing aside, "Are these two...?"

"Ah... They are the children of Mr. Cassius."

"Huh?" The young man showed an unbelievable expression, "Let's not talk about that black-haired kid over there..." He turned to Estier and looked her whole body over and over again, "This little girl really Is it the uncle's daughter?"

"What... what little girl!"

"She is indeed the real daughter of Cassius, and I am the adopted son."

"...Let me tell you, when will you get rid of your unforgiving mouth." Onasa sighed, holding her forehead helplessly.

"Hmph, no matter what, they're just newcomers. Don't let them hold you back. Please leave the investigation to me. I've encountered a bottleneck here."

"...Okay, okay, keep it in mind."

Agathe left immediately and walked in the direction of Ravenu Village.

"What...that man is really rude."

"So...she is Onasa, your partner "Epee" Agathe." Joshua stared at the heavy sword. Even though the young man was carrying such a heavy object, his figure descending the mountain was still steady.

"That's right... that's what he always said, but his heart is not bad."

"But it feels..." Estier put away her dissatisfied expression, "He seems to have a good relationship with you..."

"This...is it..." Onasa looked at the palm of her right hand, her eyelids covered the vibrant blue, "Who knows..."
