Chapter 176 The answer at the bottom of one’s heart

The hot air balloon stayed in the air for around half an hour Afterward, it slowly came to land in the castle courtyard

When the basket of the balloon landed, it attracted the attention of all the other witches who had surrounded the waiting Nightingale one after another, and by now nearly all of the ether in this place Scrolls who had recently returned, from the City Hall had even run the whole way back When she had arrived after taking a worried look up at the sky, as if she was afraid that a huge balloon would drop from it, she immediately requested to be informed about the situation

The moment the Prince had climbed out of the basket, Scroll and Wendy iain to not put his own life into sothe novelty of the toy as an excuse and flipping the topic around at theale who felt that the situation was actually quite funny and was on her way up toinstantly in her place

She’d seen the overflowing joy within Anna’s eyes when Roland had helped her out of the basket, staining her cheeks with a slight blush Her flax colored bangs was skewed to one side, with the aid of a small hairpin which reflected the silvery within the sun

Nightingale recalled how he had polished a piece of silver during the ti the blacksmith on how to operate those heavy machines

Had His Highness personally made this hairpin?

Soon the other witches began cla that they also wanted to take a tour on the balloon, and like that the balloon began to rise again, this ti on board

Wanting to be alone she went to a corner and leaned herself against the wall to sit back doatching everyone with a disturbed look, while her head was a complete blank

When the hot air balloon had landed once more, and Nana had stepped off of the basket, Leaves immediately seized the opportunity and climbed into the basket

Wendy caone up and down several tireat experience to see the town from up in the sky”

If right now there was anyone else that she could not face even less than His Highness, it would be Anna So hearing this suggestion caused Nightingale to juo back to the office”

TheBut after taking two step she suddenly caback, she was just in time to see how Wendy looked all over the place with an expression of wonder on her face, gnashi+ng her teeth, she took the next step

After dinner, she i upwards, she fell backward onto the bed

Today, even until the very end, she had never shown her figure in the office The tihness had tentatively shouted her na him that she was still there And even when Roland placed the salty fishes she usually loved so much on top of the table, she still wasn’t in thenone of them

“What’s going on? What happened to you today?” Wendy also came back to the bedroom and closed the door behind her “While I’ve seen everyone else riding on the hot air balloon, I only saw you sitting alone at the side”

“It’s Nothing,” Nightingale said, turning herself away
