That was just now... Purple and silver figures flashed through Joshua's mind, so familiar yet so unfamiliar. He tried hard to remember, but he always came up blank.

"Oh, thank you for your hard work! I may not be convincing as the director, but this is really the best stage play ever!" Qiao Er, who serves as the student council president at Wangli College, said excitedly to everyone.

"Although at the beginning, everyone laughed because of the male-female cross-dressing... But as the plot developed, everyone became serious about it, which is really great," said Kolos.

"Well, yes, I don't want to have to dress up like that again."

He took off the costume he used to perform in the stage play Shirohana Koenshi, changed back to his usual guerilla attire, put the tactical force guide into his pocket, and hung the black and white two-color scabbard containing the Black Chidori and White Chidori back on his thigh.

After facing both sides, Joshua breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter, Estelle?" Joshua noticed that his companion looked a little absent-minded, and even the Tai Chi stick he usually loved was only loosely wrapped around his back.

The Tai Chi Stick, the Black Chidori and the White Chidori were both New Year's gifts brought back to them from abroad by their father Cassius Bright at the beginning of this year after knowing that they were preparing to embark on the path of guerrillas. It is said that both are

Weapons from the East. The actual feel is much better than the weapons sold in weapon shops. More importantly, it is the form of bond between the two brothers (Estiel: sister and brother) and their father, so

It has been carefully maintained by the two of them. Even when Cassius's whereabouts were unknown before, the two of them were able to regain their confidence with only the weapons their father left them.

Joshua, who noticed something strange about Estelle, continued, "You seemed to be in a trance after the stage play. Are you okay?"

"No, it's okay. After all, I am also a guerrilla, and this level of hardship is commonplace. It's just that I seem a little lost, or my mind is a little confused or something... No, that's not right, Joshua, your face looks very...

You're pale, do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"

After Estelle reminded him, others also noticed that Joshua still seemed a little nervous even though the stage play was over.

"Huh? Is that so?" Realizing that he was actually sweating, the black-haired boy took a deep breath.

"I don't know if it's my imagination..."

During a performance, Joshua once noticed a flash of purple and silver hair in the theater.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Joshua said to everyone after adjusting with breathing techniques.

"It's a pity that neither Professor Yalua nor Xiaolian came to see the stage play. I also paid special attention to the audience." Estelle said with a pity. After hearing Estelle's words, Joshua

I also temporarily put aside the strange feeling I had just for a moment and focused on what was in front of me.

Soon, Teacher Teresa from the Manollia Orphanage came over with the children from the orphanage and chatted non-stop about the play "White Flower Love Poetry" just now.

"I really want to thank you all for showing us such a wonderful performance. This will definitely become a wonderful memory for us in Luan," said Teacher Teresa.

"Teacher...children..." Kolos hesitated to speak.

"Well... I'll tell them when I get back to Manollia Village. Then, if it's quick, maybe we can start our journey back tomorrow."

"That's not necessary!"

An old voice intervened in the conversation. Everyone looked towards the speaker, and a white-haired but energetic old man walked over quickly.

"Ah, Principal Collins." Teacher Teresa recognized the identity of the person at a glance.

"Long time no see, Teacher Theresa. It's rare for you to come to the academy. I'm really sorry that I didn't come to say hello to you until now." The old man said.

"Principal, you are so kind. We are very happy to allow us to come to the school festival. Thank you very much."

"I heard from Kross about the fire in the orphanage. It was really a very unfortunate incident. So, through this school festival, we also want to do our little bit. Please accept this." After that, Ke

Dean Linz took out a bulging envelope and handed it to Teacher Theresa.

"This is?"

"The total donation collected from visitors is one million Mila. Please use it to rebuild the orphanage."

"One million!?" Estelle was shocked by the amount. She lost her mother when she was a child, and her father was always away from home. She grew up eating a lot of food. She had never seen so many Miras in her life.

"It's such a big amount." Joshua also sighed that there were so many donations.

"Why are there so many?" Teacher Teresa hesitated whether she should accept it.

"Because many celebrities such as Duke Dunant and the Mayor of Perth participated in the school festival this time, more Mira was raised than in previous years."

Teacher Teresa still wanted to shirk it, but after the dissuasion of all the students, she still accepted the envelope.

"Children, I have made you suffer." Teresa said with some choking.

"I, we don't feel that we have suffered much. Also, teacher, why are you crying?" the red-haired kid Cram asked strangely.

"Kramm is an idiot. Of course he cried because he was too happy," the clever Mary said from the side.

Weeping with joy, Teacher Teresa held the children and shed tears. After she collected herself, she and the children took the carriage arranged by the dean and set off back to the village of Manollia. The person in charge of driving was the person stationed at the Guerrilla Association.

Karuna, the official guerrilla of the Luan branch, has been working as a guard at Janis Royal Academy today. This is her last task today. She will give a special entrustment to the Guerrilla Association. It is also the principal of the academy to take care of Teresa and

Arranged by the children.

"This matter has finally been resolved."

After heaving a long sigh of relief, Joshua, Estelle and other students began to pack up for the school festival.

When all the work was finished, it was already dusk.

Joshua and Estelle planned to return directly to the Guerrilla Association in Luan to report. And Kolos planned to go to Manollia Village to meet Teacher Theresa. She obtained permission from the dean of the college to stay outside.

The three of them walked together through the street and forest road.

"Where did Kiku go... Well, let's forget about it for now, let's go." Koros said.

"Well...even though it's only been a week, I'm really happy. Of course, except for the classes." Estelle expressed her feelings about college life.

"What are you putting the cart before the horse? School is the main business, and the school festival is just a special event." Joshua no longer wanted to complain, but he still couldn't help but complain to her.

"That's right. e=(o｀*))) Well, it turns out that being a student is so hard no matter where you are."

"Estil and Joshua, your relationship is really good." Kross suddenly interjected.

"Yes, really..." Estelle's neck suddenly felt a little hot when she thought of something. She immediately changed the subject and chatted with Kross about the battle of wits and courage between herself and the Sky Pirates in Perth in early September.

s story.

After walking and chatting for about an hour, the three of them arrived at the fork in the Meiweihai Road.

"Okay, let's say goodbye here." Joshua said.

"Thank you so much for your help these days." Kolos replied.

"Ah haha, you're welcome, and the two of us also had a great time. Then, say hello to Teacher Theresa and the others for us." Estelle waved her hand, saying that she didn't need to worry about it.

"Well, I will definitely tell you." Kolos said.

However, just as the three of them were about to separate, they encountered a panting man running towards them.

"It's Mr. Zaku from Manollia Village." Kolos became very familiar with the villagers at once, and she remembered everyone's names clearly.

"Ah, it's you. Something bad is going to happen! Huh~huh~~"

Breathing heavily, the man took a short rest and immediately told the three people about the emergency.

"Something bad happened. Teacher Theresa and the children were attacked near Manollia Village!"

"What!" After hearing this, Kollos' feet weakened and she fell to her knees directly as if she had lost her strength. For her, who had lost her parents, Teresa, who had taken care of her since she was a child, was like her mother.

"Cheer up, now is not the time to fall down." Joshua supported Kross and pulled her up.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

Kolos stood up again, and walked up to the young man, "Please...please tell us the details?"

"Okay. They were attacked by a group of strange guys on their way back from Wangli Academy. None of the children were injured, but Teacher Teresa and the escorting guerrilla sister both fainted."

"Huh? Sister Karuna too!?" Estelle said in surprise.

"The other party is not simple." Joshua said.

Karuna, whom Joshua and Estelle knew, was a reliable senior guerrilla who was good at using guided guns in combat. She had much more qualifications and experience than the two of them. Even she was knocked down.

No... Joshua felt that the enemy only knocked him down, but did not kill him. This was the most suspicious thing. Only those who can fight with ease can be merciful. No matter how careful the enemy's strength is, you can't be too careful.

"Originally I wanted to notify the association directly, but the communicator in the village happened to be broken. In desperation, I had no choice but to run over." Zhagu said.

"Is that so? Thank you for your emergency assistance. However, if possible, could you please go to Luan? Because we are going to Manollia Village soon." Joshua made a decision on the initiative.

It is natural for a guerrilla to act immediately when his companions are attacked.

"Okay, I understand." Zaku took another step and ran towards Luan in the south with all his strength.

Joshua stopped Estelle who was about to set off immediately. He took out the tactical guide device and added two buffs to Estelle and Kross: the guidance magic, wind travel time acceleration, and so on.

Increased their movement speed and mobility.

Then he took the two girls, who were running twice as fast as before, and sped up and rushed towards Manollia Village.

When the three of them arrived at Manollia Village, it was already dark.

As soon as they arrived at the village, they hurriedly entered the White Mulian Pavilion. In the room, they saw Carla, the proprietress of the Mulian Pavilion, their four children, and Teresa and Karuna lying on the bed.

"Brother and sister..." Mary looked up and saw the person entering the room.

"Children..." Kolos also spoke up.

"Ah..." This is Cram. "Uwaaaah~~" This is Danielle. "How scary!" This is Polly.

The three children immediately gathered around Kross and hugged her tightly. Although Mary held back her tears, she also walked over and, like the other children, reached out and pinched the hem of Kross's clothes.
