The trail of the sky The light belongs to you

In the Wangdu area, sunlight hangs in the sky.

The white dove was strolling in the courtyard, enjoying the lazy sunlight on the noble and elegant roof of Gransell City.

It was noon, and the crisp bells rang, echoing in the blue sky.

Under the vibration of the bell, the white doves flapped their wings and took off in unison, leaving a shallow trail in the sky with their pure white wings.

On the balcony outside the Queen's Palace, a gorgeously dressed woman was standing in front of the railing with her palms folded. Her purple eyes contained a look of worry, and she looked at the land.

Somewhere in the palace, it seems that the ground is shaking...

"Colodia..."

"Your Majesty, please stay calm," the young man standing silently behind said suddenly, "I believe they will arrive here soon, and then you will be able to see that your granddaughter is safe and sound."

The older woman, Liber's lord Queen Alicia, turned around and looked at the thin figure in front of her.

"You... in the end..."

"Second Lieutenant Lorenzberg," the young man smiled slightly, "this is my name."

"You...are you really going to use something like the [Ring of Radiance]?"

"That seems to be the colonel's purpose."

"how about you?"

Queen Alicia's sudden question made Laurence purse his lips slightly.

"So far...you haven't done anything to hurt me. It feels like you are waiting for someone here instead of watching me..."

"Hehe... As expected of Her Majesty, the insight is really extraordinary. It is true to say that I have another purpose here, but you don't need to know what the purpose is for the time being."

Alicia was about to speak again when Lawrence suddenly covered her thin lips with her slender fingers.

"Grandmother...!"

"not here……"

"Estier, outside on the balcony!"

The moment Lawrence turned his head, the balcony door just opened, and his purple eyes soon met those blue eyes unexpectedly.

Is it really here...

"Grandmother, are you okay?"

"Your Majesty, we are here to save you!"

"Estier, Kolodia..."

"It's finally here, I'm getting impatient with waiting."

The frosty voice came from a corner of the balcony, and the three people except Onasa were startled.

"Lo, Second Lieutenant Lawrence! Why are you in this kind of place..."

"Hehe, my mission is to protect Her Majesty the Queen," Lawrence walked to the Queen's side, "it's not unbelievable to appear here, right?"

"Stop joking!" The long orange stick twirled and pointed at the seemingly defenseless Lawrence, "No matter how strong you are, there are four of us here!"

"……Innocent."

"You, what did you say!?"

"If you think you can defeat me just by the number of people," Lawrence flashed his sword, "ask the person next to you and you will know the result."

"Hey……?"

"Onasha..."

The blond girl remained silent, but her blue eyes were no longer bright at this moment, there was a dark aura swirling in the center of her pupils, as if it would occupy the entire pupils at any moment.

"Don't take it lightly..." The rapier was already out of its sheath, and the blade pierced the air with a piercing sound.

"Who the hell is this man... Exuding such a great sense of oppression..."

"He is...Second Lieutenant Lawrence, the captain of the Intelligence Department's Special Service Force! He used to be a member of the Jaegers, and was later recruited by Colonel Richard..."

Estier looked at Onasa's back blankly, leaving nothing but a blank in her mind--in my impression, I have never seen Onasa look like that, just like every time Joshua mentioned Luo Just like the aura he exuded when he was Second Lieutenant Lance...

"Oh? Not bad, the investigation has reached this level. As expected of the daughter of an S-rank guerrilla."

"!!!"

"He even knows the level of a teacher that has never been announced to the outside world..." Shirazade finally realized what kind of character he was facing, "This man is not an idle person..."

"I'm also very clear about your matter... Shirazade Harvey, who is ranked C and nicknamed [Silver Flash], seems to be upgrading to B in the near future."

"That..." Kolos was about to speak and stepped forward when Onasha suddenly stopped her and signaled her to speak here and not to move forward.

All the while, her eyes never left the place where Laurence's eyes were behind the mask.

Everything he said - S-rank guerrilla, knowing other people's information, she was no longer surprised by all of this.

Why, at this moment, would she be so persistent in regarding him as an [enemy]?

Why, at this moment, when she was not the only one confronting him, she would be full of hostility towards him?

"Yes, I'm sorry... Please return Grandmother to me, please? If you are only being used by the colonel, there is no need to continue fighting now."

"What drives this world is not something that can only be seen by the eyes. Just like those who only observe the crystallization circuit cannot know the movement of the gear..."

"what……"

Words that seemed to have nothing to do with the rescue suddenly came out of Lawrence's mouth, and the tone sounded as if he was imparting an eloquent truth.

It was a very contagious voice, which made Kolos unconsciously forget the situation she was in.

"Listen up, Princess Kolotia."

"The so-called country is like a huge and complex force guide."

Onasa opened her eyes slightly, recalling the conversation between them at Reston Fortress that night—

"The country is just a shelter for human beings. The insignificance and fragility of human beings will be revealed once they lose the cover of powerful things."

She closed her eyes, and the next words seemed to have always existed in her heart, ready to come out.

[People are like crystalline circuits that contain power within them]

"Organizations and systems are the gears that mobilize power..."

[And the land that wraps it together...]

"It's the frame of the power guide."

Perfect, almost simultaneous articulation.

This is his idea.

Also her idea.

They are so similar that they cannot accommodate each other.

Onasa suddenly felt a burst of sadness in her heart, as if she had been punched hard, and it became difficult to even breathe.

They are so similar, but they stand on opposite sides...

So much so that she felt that it was so impossible to reach out and touch it.

It turned out that this was the real source of her grief.

Not because the mind has not yet been determined... It is precisely because of this gap, between Lawrence and Onasa, or between Levi and Onasa.

Even if she tried hard to get past it, what was the situation with them now?

Estier, Kolos, Shirazade... He could cause harm to them at any time, and what he was doing was exactly what she wanted to stop desperately...

She had to stand here, beside Kolos and the others, not on Levi's side.

Kolos needs her protection, and Levi is very strong, and Levi can defeat many people by himself.

Because she wanted to [guard], she had to regard him as an [enemy]—this is a ridiculous answer.

She can't go over that barrier.She was not allowed to step over that barrier.

"It is indeed a very vivid metaphor... I never expected to hear such a unique national theory in such a place..."

"Hehe, I made a fool of myself just now. These words seem unnecessary to Your Majesty."

"Although I don't quite understand what's going on..." Estier finally recovered from staring at the back of Onasa's head, "But it seems that you don't intend to release Her Majesty the Queen, do you?"

"Even so... what can you do?"

"That goes without saying... I will try my best to save Her Majesty the Queen!"

"That's right... Now that we're here, there's no reason to back down."

"Although I don't feel any hostility from you...but, in order to save Grandmother, I will not hesitate to strike at you!"

"Hehe, not bad...Since this is the case, I have to show some real strength."

The metal helmet was slowly fastened on with his right hand, as if something had stung the eyes of the four of them. With the "bang" sound of the helmet falling to the ground, the young man had already shown his true appearance.

"Silver hair..."

"No, it's pale gold. This man should have been born in the north."

It was a face so handsome that even Estier was amazed. It reminded her of Joshua in women's clothing. It was a face so beautiful that even women were envious of it.The dazzling silver hair reflected the rays of sunshine over Grancel City, making it impossible to look away.

"That's right, it's indeed the north, but it's not too far away from here. Even though you are all women, I don't need to be merciful... accept the move."

Before Ke Luosi could even react, the golden sword had already swung towards her.

She subconsciously knelt down and covered her head with her hands.

Keng——

With a clear sound of hitting, he opened his eyes and saw Onasa standing in front of him, the slender blade colliding with the golden sword and emitting scorching sparks.Even though the rapier is smaller in size, it contains power no less than that of the opponent.

Onasa jumped away nimbly, and at the same time stretched out her hand to bring Kolos a few meters away.

"Speed, the speed is so fast..."

"Silver thorns...!"

"Zero Cyclone...!"

The moment the eight sharp blades fell, the storm created by Onasa quickly hid the phantom light in the whirlwind, defusing Lawrence's magic attack.

"This magic... I've never seen it before..." Estier looked at the force guide in his hand in surprise, "Diamond Star...!"

"Type Zero Storm!"

The young man used the same attack-type skill as Onasa just now, and Estier's magic drive was quickly interrupted.

"Now... Kiku!"

The white falcon flew in the direction pointed by Koloss's rapier, but was easily dodged by Lawrence.After circling a few times in the air, Kiku stopped helplessly on the railing of the balcony, waiting for an opportunity to move.

"Look at my..."

From behind the three of them, Estier brandished a long stick and tried to get close to the fast-moving Lawrence, but she was completely outmatched in terms of strength and speed. Every time the long stick and the big sword collided, her palm Numb.

"Whip of the Wind!"

The long whip hit a certain point in the air, and Sherazard's attack caused waves in the air. Lawrence just held his sword horizontally in front of him, and the attack didn't even leave a single scratch on his body.

"Okay, amazing..."

"Onasha..."

Ke Luosi stood up from the ground and looked at the young girl who was constantly fighting in front of her. Until now, Onasa was the only one who could continue to fight against the captain without being knocked down.

The gorgeous long golden hair and the handsome short silver hair are dancing, as if everything has become a picture, their eyes contain the same look, showing no mercy to each other.

There is the same persistence in their swordsmanship, and the pace is not disturbed by the opponent at all. It is a kind of persistence that is not affected by any external things. Once the method and target of the next attack are chosen, they will not change easily.

Perhaps it is this kind of persistence that allows these two people to have such superb skills.

Kolos remembered what Yulia had said when she taught herself swordsmanship: the sword drawn to protect others can only exert its greatest power if it is unshakable.

The swords intersected again.

"Hehe...isn't it good?" Lawrence said in a voice that the rest of the people couldn't hear, and his eyes slowly moved from the sword to Onasha's eyes, "It seems that I have grown a lot, and it seems that I have realized something. ?"

Onasa was silent, tapped her right foot to the ground, and pushed her right hand upwards, pushing her opponent a few meters away.

"fallen woman!"

Pink flowers and green leaves slowly climbed up to the edge of the sword from the bottom of the sword. Onasa swung the sword lightly, and the flowers and leaves flew around and wrapped around Lawrence's limbs. With the flickering of light, the flowers and leaves burst one after another, causing sword energy The explosion... Under this attack, Lawrence seemed to be knocked down.

"It's really surprising... I didn't expect you to reach such a level."

"You, you bastard..." Estelle supported the ground with a long stick and couldn't stop panting, "Didn't you use your full strength in the finals? It's so powerful!"

"You can actually defeat such a monster..."

"Estirbreat, I've been too contemptuous of you just now, and I'm deeply sorry. If you go on like this, it's not impossible to reach the level of your father."

"what……"

"However, there is still a certain gap."

"Oops... back off!"

Onasa quickly blocked the oncoming attack with her rapier, but she couldn't stop it from attacking the three people behind her.

"The body... can't move..."

"Estier!"

"Colodia! Estelle!" Her Majesty was so anxious that when she stepped forward, Lawrence suddenly turned around.

"Your Majesty, please don't be anxious. I just immobilized them for the time being. It's not life-threatening."

"..." His Majesty's eyes suddenly became extremely compassionate, "Why... those eyes have such a deep color?"

"Ah..." Hearing these words, Onasa's pupils suddenly constricted, and the sharp eyes just now were swept away, and instead were infiltrated by sadness.

"Obviously so young...but it seems to have experienced great suffering."

"...Queen, you have no right to pity me." Lawrence closed his eyes, "I don't think you will feel unfamiliar with the name [Hamel]."

"...!!"

"Hammel... er...?"

This name not only cheered the queen, but also made Onasa's heart twitch.

Hamel...should be...a village that communicated with Ravenu a long time ago.But one day, the audio suddenly disappeared...

She recalled his words—scenes from hell.

The intuition in her mind worked at this moment, and she began to gradually outline the prototype of his past.

"Then...everyone," Lawrence suddenly jumped to the edge of the balcony, "As everyone wishes, I will return the Queen intact."

"what!"

"If you still want to stop the colonel, I advise you to go underground as soon as possible. Although it may be too late, it may reduce unnecessary casualties."

"Underground... Could it be from somewhere?"

"Hehe... Now you, you can't understand the meaning of it. Then... goodbye!"

"Wait, wait a minute...!"

The moment Lawrence jumped onto the fence, Onasa called out to him from behind, but...it still failed to prevent him from disappearing above the calm sea level.

Everyone was able to move around and rushed to check the situation.

Onasa stood there in a daze. The look he looked back when he jumped down was extremely lonely, and there was a determination to confirm that she would not follow.

That's right, she really won't follow...

The pain in my heart intensified, and everything began to feel unreal.
