Chapter 1209: Fly like an angel I am

"You're losing your mind," Atlas breathed through gritted teeth, seated in the co- pilot seat while the pilots were knocked unconscious and were now lying by the shut door. She had used them as a doorstopper. "Do you even know how to pilot an aircraft?"

Penny rolled her eyes and cast him a disgusted look. "That's the point! If I knew how to pilot this thing, why would I even take the job? It won't be scary for you, then."

"Are you insane?!" Horrified, Atlas felt his breathing hitch. "You're going to kill everyone on this plane, Penelope! It's not just your life at stake, but everyone's- including the cabin crew, these pilots you knocked out, your brothers, your husband, and even Allen and Benjamin!"

"So?" Penny remained indifferent, casually putting on her headphones. "What if we're all going to die? There's a high chance I'd get reborn again!"

She chuckled and gave him a knowing look. "At least, when I get reborn, I won't have these lingering feelings of hatred. We're even." A smirk appeared on her face as she turned her attention to the countless buttons before her.

"Wow. This makes my hands tingle!" she clapped excitedly, rubbing her hands together as she searched for which button to press first. But just as she reached out, Atlas grabbed her arm. "Huh?"

"Don't... touch anything," he said through gritted teeth. "Penelope Bennet, this is not a joke."

"You think I'm joking?"

"Penny."

Penny adjusted her seat, her body twisting to face him. "First Brother, are you scared?"

"Scared?" he repeated. "There are lives here, Penny."

"But you believe in rebirth, don't you? If this aircraft crashes, it's likely we'll all just wake up as babies again."

"There's no certainty in that."

Penny blinked and rocked her head. "True, but I also wasn't certain I'd get to live again, but I did. Don't you want to test our luck in this lifetime?"
