Sage's eyes brimmed with tears of excitement and joy as she felt herself enveloped in the warm embrace.After a while, they let go of each other, and Sage asked smilingly, "Did you guys win?"Strider nodded. "Yes, we won. I thought I’d never see you again.""This all still feels like a dream to me… Even our comrades have returned as well." Sage turned around, and Strider saw millions of people appear, waving at him.All those who had perished in Geras had returned.Strider cried tears of joy. "She did it," he said, breathing deeply.Sage, wiping her tears, added, "But not everyone managed to return… The hundred thousand soldiers who delivered the food supplies to us are lost forever."Strider sighed and fell silent.***After regaining their lives, people across all cities returned to their families and began planning the reconstruction of homes that had been destroyed by monsters. Crystal announced the beginning of a new era from the city gates of Novemton. She quickly organi

When Sean woke up, he found the shrine already destroyed with no signs of Marissa in the basement. Overwhelmed with desperation, he cried out for Marissa and ran to the riverside where he had died, searching for her."Marissa!"Marissa!“Marissa! Where are you?"Sean called out repeatedly, his face wet with tears. He could not bear the thought of Marissa leaving him. To make matters worse, Marissa was blind. Sean had no idea how far she could have gotten without him.Suddenly, a loud cry came from the sky. Sean looked up to see a large mighty eagle soaring overhead. Overcome with grief, he knelt on the ground, screaming toward the sky to vent his overwhelming emotions."Sean!" a voice suddenly called out. Sean whipped around to see Marissa, transforming from her eagle form into her human form. She stood by the river and watched him quietly."Marissa!" Sean shouted and ran toward her frantically. He stumbled and tripped a few times but continued to approach her. Finally, he emb

Sean dragged Marissa to his home. He then pressed her by the shoulders into a chair.Annoyed, Marissa said, "Ow, you're hurting me. What are you doing?" "I need you to tell me what happened, Marissa. How were your eyes cured? I heard from others that eighteen years have passed. What happened? You're all grown up now. You're so different from before that I almost didn't recognize you."Taking a deep breath, Marissa replied, "It’s all thanks to you, Sean. We wouldn't have won if not for you.”"Me? What do you mean we’ve won? I heard that Sir Draco and Sir Dominus fought that person on top of Mount Regent and that we were saved after he was killed. They're also saying that a mighty eagle appeared in the sky."Sean recounted the stories he had heard over the past month, stories that had spread throughout Navia."Were they referring to this?"Marissa transformed into a mighty eagle, her wings almost bursting through the walls of the house. Shocked, Sean stumbled and fell to the grou

Nova glared at Adrian, but he merely spread his hands in helplessness. "You guys go ahead and enjoy yourselves. You all deserve it,” he said."Fine. I won't make you go since you have official duties to tend to. But promise me you'll take me and Mother there when you have the time." "I will, I promise." Adrian smiled. ***The next day, Adrian went to Novemton and arrived in the morning. With many structures being rebuilt, Novemton looked vastly different from during the disaster. The city had also planned out an additional shrine named “Steel Shrine.”This place was built in memory of Steel, and the first thing Adrian did when he arrived in Novemton was visit the shrine and reminisce over his former comrade. Only after that did he visit Navia Palace."Your Majesty, Sir Draco has arrived," Hugh reported to Crystal in the main office.Crystal got up to welcome Adrian, who had just entered. "Long time no see, Crystal," Adrian greeted with a smile.Crystal felt bittersweet wh

After the talk with Crystal, Adrian headed to a few more places to meet a few old friends. At night, he headed home to Swallowston.***Life was peaceful over the next few days. Adrian spent his days in Swallowston with Samantha, Gloria, and the others. He also took Nova out with him to have some fun every so often. A month later, the monument along Evercrest Mountain and Geras City's railway was finished, commemorating the hundred thousand soldiers who had sacrificed themselves. Scenes of the battle were depicted on the monument’s surface, and the structure stretched from Evercrest to thirty kilometers outside Geras. The monument was named the Evercrest Monument, and it attracted a large crowd of visitors upon its completion.Early one day in Swallowston, after learning of the completion of the Evercrest Monument, Adrian said, "Nova, let's go somewhere special today."Nova agreed. After informing Samantha, they left the house. Adrian and Nova drove to Evercrest Mountain and ar

The pair then arrived at the top of Evercrest Mountain. "Nova.""Yes, Father?"Adrian pointed toward the Evercrest Mountain camp and said, "That's where the camp is. More than twenty years ago, the Excenomers and four nations in the outlands came together to invade our borders. At the time, I sent out a team of vanguards to take control of this mountain and make it our base. After we won, we established this outpost. Do you see that sentry tower behind the camp?""I see it." "Do you know how it came about?""Yes, I do. Thunderstorm was the one who built it so that his men could keep a lookout for Excenomer activity at all times. After all, our nation’s moat is just a hundred meters away from the tower. "There's a dragon head statue at the top of the tower called Dragon's Gate. It's meant to be the entrance into Navia, and the men guarding this base were all ready to sacrifice themselves to protect our country from invaders."Nova had read about all these in books. Adrian s

A deep sound resonated throughout the camp as a huge screen at the square played a scene of a hundred thousand soldiers departing for their mission. Although these soldiers were paid actors, their acting was so superb that coupled with the music and scenery, the visitors felt as though they were watching the real scene.Adrian stood quietly in the crowd, unrecognizable to those around him. Nova teared up, her heart stirred by the scene. She had heard stories from Steel about the hundred thousand soldiers and how Geras would have been destroyed if not for them. Without Geras, they would not have located the Godkey. And without the Godkey, none of what they were enjoying at that moment would be possible. "Father..." Nova softly said as she grabbed Adrian's wrist.Adrian glanced at her and replied, "Let's keep moving." Nova nodded, and the pair left the camp to walk along the railway.On one side of the railway tracks were stone steles, each boosting the engravings of a soldier

“Mr. Steel taught me so many things I can't even begin to count them." Adrian calmly replied, "I'm going to teach you one more thing today. I want you to remember it for the rest of your life, understand?""Yes, Father. I promise I'll remember it forever." "Human potential is limitless. Everything you experience will become the tools you need to succeed in the future. No matter what sort of disaster befalls us, remember that there is hope as long as you're alive." "Yes, Father," Nova answered firmly.Adrian affectionately patted Nova's hair and continued along the railway.By evening, they reached the end of the monument. A kilometer away from the end stood a visitor’s center that provided accommodations, transportation, and a cafeteria.After walking all morning and afternoon, Adrian said, "You must be hungry by now. Let's grab a bite. We can head back in the evening.” "Okay."He led Nova to the visitor’s center which was crowded with resting tourists. The pair headed tow
