Chương 105: Epilogue:”Alice’s Letter”

Time flies so fast; six years have already passed since you left. I'm currently working as a teacher at a magic classroom in my hometown of Nabok, which was my dream. Surrounded by children who love magic, I'm living happy days every day. As for Milia, believe it or not, she became a diplomat. It seems she's using her skilled conversational techniques to fiercely negotiate with foreign countries. For Milia, who used to be so shy around strangers, to be a diplomat... it's truly amazing, isn't it?

Argus, as the next head of the Ozbine family, is working on restoring his house and rebuilding Sacris, which was thrown into confusion by the series of incidents. I'm sure if it's him, he'll make it a wonderful city of swords and magic again. Inea-san is working as an instructor in the Qi Sword Department as usual. But there's one thing that has changed a little. Since then, people were fascinated by Inea-san's fighting style, and the number of requests to learn Qi Sword has increased.

As expected of Inea-san, right? Karla-san is serving time in prison to atone for her crimes. At first, the death penalty was discussed, but her fighting to protect Sacris was evaluated, and she got off with fifteen years in prison. And guess what? Argus, who used to be like cats and dogs with her, moved desperately for Karla-san's sake. This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

Using his position as a great noble, he pleaded to stop only the death penalty. He even bowed his head to the judge. That was the deciding factor. Now, those two have become so close that it's unthinkable compared to the old days. You can't believe it, right? Ketty-san is working at a magic tool shop in Sacris. It seems she visits Karla-san from time to time, and they are getting along well as usual. By the way. We decided to meet up with everyone after a long time at the next Stardust Festival.

I can't help but look forward to it from now. However. The only thing is, I still feel lonely that you are not here. Hey, Yu. Where are you and what are you doing now? I hope you're not pushing yourself too hard again. But I'm sure you're doing well. There are still many things I want to write, but it looks like I'll ramble on, so I'll stop here. But please let me say just this. No matter how far apart we are, we will always, always be best friends! To my beloved Yu, From Alice"And... done."

Gently putting down the pen, I carefully folded the written letter into a shape. What I made was a paper airplane. I intended to fly it toward the sky. I went outside and held it preciously in my right hand, taking a stance. Please, may it reach beyond that sky. At least, may just the feelings put into the letter reach you. Carried by the Wind Magic you loved so much." Fly————!" The paper airplane I threw with all my might rode the wind and rose vigorously.

Eventually, it disappeared far into the sky, as if being sucked in.

"—Yeah. It flew well." After watching it go, I gazed vacantly at the sky for a while. The emerald green sky that continued endlessly was clear without a single cloud.

"Ms. Alice. What were you doing?" Turning around at the voice, a young female student, Amy, was standing there with a blank look on her face. I crouched down and told her, matching her eye level.

"I sent my feelings, you see. To a precious person." Then, her eyes immediately sparkled.

"So nice~. I want to do it too! I'll send one to my mom!"

"That's a lovely thing. Sure. Let's make a letter together."

"Yeah!" Totatota, she ran toward the classroom with unsteady steps. I watched her with a heartwarming feeling.

"All right! Let's get to work properly!" Suddenly, I looked up again. Beyond the sky, I felt like someone smiled at me.
