Release that Witch Chapter 1098: Guardian


When the crowd dispersed and the old man re-boarded the train, Lightning moved closer, flew into the cab from the rear window, and landed quietly in the compartment.

The old man stood in front of the console and looked down at the objects in his hands. He was like a silent statue.

Looking at the other person's back, she wanted to comfort her, but didn't know how to speak.

The opponent didn't notice her presence until he hesitated to touch the half-open window.

"Ah, you are the little girl that day ... "The old man blinked in surprise.

"My name is Lightning." Lightning stepped back, "Sorry, I ..."

"I see, are you here to comfort me?" He grinned suddenly. "Ah, really, I'm not old enough to need a little girl to comfort me, and it makes you laugh." But the ability of witch is really convenient, and you can go where you want to go freely.

The other person's expression was not as sad as Lightning imagined, which made her nervousness slightly relaxed, "I, I will knock on the door next time."

"I'm not blaming you, child." The old man put down the folding table on the wall, and wiped it with his sleeves. "Come, sit here, and I'll pour you a cup of tea. This is the only one here." Entertaining people. "

"Thank you ... Thank you." Lightning slowly walked to the table and sat down, only to find that she had put an Neverwinter ID card on the operating table.

"My name is Brucher, or you can just call my nickname: Mr. Big Voice. Those kids in the car often call me that." The old man brought a cup of steaming tea to the table, "You attended the funeral just now?"

Lightning first nodded, then shook his head, "I just happened to fly over the sky and watched for a while ..."

"That proves that you haven't lost any buddies. That's great news."

She clenched her tea cup, "Your son ..."

"Ah, his name is Robert, the youngest member of his family, sacrificed in the battle for cannon position. Brucher said calmly. "The camp chief said he was brave. "

"He is really brave," Lightning whispered. From Silvie, she heard the whole process of the battle. Without situation without fire support and God Punishment Witches on the scene, she launched a charge against Devil's shooting spear. If there was not enough courage, impossible took that step.

"In fact, the third oldest was the most timid one. When mining in the mine, no matter how foreman bullied him, he didn't dare to fight back, and only came back to cry to me." Brucher said with emotion, "Do you find it strange that I don't look so sad?"

The little girl was babbling for a while, "No, I"

"It doesn't matter," said the old man comfortingly, "because I know that sooner or later there will be such a day ... whether the third child or the other two sons have said the same thing to me."

"What did they ... say?"

"They said that they want to protect Neverwinter City and everything they can do easily." The old man drank tea. "To be honest, I didn't understand it at the time, and asked why it was them, not others. . "

Lightning is also asking why.

Brucher seems to see her thoughts, "Their answer is that someone else has already sacrificed."

"Since the militia team confronted Evil Beast, there have been people who have been falling on the front line. It is the same to resist Duke Ryan and the same against Church's. If everyone is thinking about why they are not others, we should still be here The mine is living the same life as livestock. "Said the old man." As long as it is a battle, there will inevitably be sacrifice. Who should turn is who. If everyone is unwilling to go, this battle will not have to be fought. Let the enemy slaughter this is what they say to me. "

"I don't know if the three sons' ideas are correct, but at least one thing is certain, this is their own choice." He take a deep breath, "The children are all grown up and can walk on the path that they believe is correct , Is enough for me. Compared to the boss who died of the cold, the third child ’s name will be remembered by the army forever. What ’s so sad for me? ”

Lightning's mind could not help but emerge from the other party's words that night, "They used to be similar to Mouse, thin and weak, but since the joining army, it seems like they have changed people inside and out, this is also The reason I have full confidence in First Army is that a team of such people was easily defeated by impossible. "

Is that so ...

"By the way, I have to say thank you."

"Thanks ... me?" Lightning froze.

"Of course," the old man smiled. "Without your timely notification, camp will suffer even greater losses. In a sense, you also protected First Army and my other son. I am still thinking When will I meet you next time, maybe it will never happen again, I never thought you would appear directly behind me and it would be great to say thank you in person. "

After drinking tea, Lightning waved goodbye to Brucher.

She flew out of the original road and passed the car in front of her. She saw the old man returned to the console through the window glass, grabbed the ID card, and covered her face with her hands.

...

Back to the residential area, Macy was hovering in the air. When I saw Lightning, I rushed up, "Where did you go ?! Why did you come back! Did you forget today's event?"

"Uh, what is it?"

"Today is the day when Logia is discharged!" Macy gathered her wings and landed on top of her head. "Go to the medical clinic!"

"Ah ... Okay, I see. Don't mess around. Lightning straightened the pigeons and flew towards the center of camp. After the last night attack, the layout of the T1 station has changed greatly. It looks down from the air, except for the platform, the yard and the sentry tower. It is flat. Functional buildings such as barracks and medical clinics have all been sunk into the ground, and the fire protection points can cover both the outer circle of the defense line and the interior. Even if the Devil is reapplied, it will be difficult to create a large one like last time Threat.

It didn't take long before they saw the familiar figure of the wolf girl.

"Oh," Logia shook his ears, "I haven't seen you in a long time."

"It's only been a week." Lightning was finally relieved to see the other person's spirit shaking. After all, listening to Macy describes the state of the wolf girl when she was carried into the medical center, she almost took a breath when she followed.

"I'm probably sleeping every day, which makes me think it's getting longer." Logia stretched his waist. "Nana is really true. I have to drag it for a week to recover the wound. I think another week, The wound can heal itself. "

Since the side effects of witch against Anemone fern are much higher than those of ordinary people, under the condition of life-threatening situation, the sleeping treatment method can usually effectively save the magic power of the healer, which is also the experience accumulated during Federation combat.

"It is indeed a monster-like recovery ability, almost comparable to Lady Ash!" Macy patted his wings.

"Uh ... ever since talking with Miss Andrea, I always think this is not a boast." Logia muttered quietly.

"Goo?"

"No, it's nothing." She walked to Lightning, both hands took the little girl's arm and raised the latter.

"Hey, hey ... what are you doing, let me down." Lightning suddenly twisted, "Someone is watching!"

"I heard what Silvie said, everything you do."

"I"

"So, you can still work hard," Logia embraced Lightning into her arms. "This is the leader I am familiar with."

Lightning stopped struggling. She felt a warm current in her heart and remained silent for a while before she whispered, "But I'm still a coward."

"If you can say this to me, it means that you have already taken that step." Logia put down Lightning, "You don't think about leaving alone now?"

Lightning looked at the wolf girl and Macy again, and nodded gently, "Yeah."

At the moment of answering, it seemed as if something was resting on her shoulder.

But she doesn't reject this feeling.

Instead, it gives birth to an inexplicable relief.

"Goo?" Macy said with a crooked head, "What are you talking about?"

"We're talking about celebration," Logia straightened up, "Since I'm safe, shouldn't I have a good drink?"

"Celebrating Go! Celebrating Go!" Macy echoed cheerfully.

"Hey, wait ..." Lightning dodges, "I have to patrol at night."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you take out the drink from then it will be alright, we will drink it for you," Logia raised tail, "This is also the dedication of the head, shouldn't it?"
