She went back to her old profession.

Using her identity as a bounty hunter, Skadi searches for traces of the remaining Abyss forces throughout Terra, and occasionally returns to Rhodes Island to visit Melantha.

In this respect, they have come to the same conclusion as Rhodes Island, albeit through a different path.

After the war, Ornstein became a full member of the old guard organization on Rhodes Island.

He would occasionally attend various gatherings of young people, and then enjoy sipping a cup of tea and squinting his eyes while discussing archery with the forest ranger in the afternoon.

I just hitched a ride to Kazimierz a couple of days ago, saying we were going to watch this year's Special Championship live.

Kroos remains the same as always.

They had plenty of food and drink, and even became familiar with the PhD student, often going to his office to ask for snacks.

Even Kal'tsit was helpless against this heartless dog. After all, Kroos didn't have any bad intentions, so she could only do what the Doctor did and always keep some biscuits on her.

At least when she encounters Kroos, feeding her provides Kal'tsit with some comfort amidst her busy work.

Melantha was promoted to a full-fledged operator after this battle, and soon after, she passed the elite operator assessment.

Rhodes Island's core group has gained another member.

Faced with questions from the Doctor and Kal'tsit, Melantha pondered for a moment before deciding on her own operator codename.

Bonfire.

The doctor sighed and, under Melantha's puzzled gaze, picked up his coffee and took a sip.

Kal'tsit was much gentler towards Melantha than towards the others, even speaking to her in a softer voice.

Melanie let out a long sigh of relief as she left the office.

She was initially worried about whether she would pass the assessment. But when the results actually came out, Melanie had a strange sense that it was only natural.

Katie watched Melantha nervously as they waited outside together for the results.

"how?"

"It's done!"

Melansha smiled and clenched her little fist.

The two furry ears on its head twitched incessantly, an expression of uncontrollable joy.

For Melantha, the end of the war that day came somewhat abruptly.

All she remembered was that she and several elite senior operators were ambushed by the Pardoners, and then she lost consciousness.

When I opened my eyes again, I was already in a hospital bed on Rhodes Island.

They said the war was over, but Melantha still couldn't quite believe it.

"Then I'll throw you a celebration party tonight!"

Katie skipped and hopped along, pulling Melanie along with her.

"It just so happens that Ansel and the others have just returned from a field mission. These three guys are still excited about becoming official operators."

After experiencing the Victoria battlefield, the entire reserve team successfully rose to become official operators.

Now, Instructor Dubin has welcomed a new batch of reserve team members.

"That's possible, but..."

Melanie turned her head and glanced at the information terminal on the wall.

"It's time for training now."

"Hey! Is there training again today?!"

Katie pouted; she had originally planned to take Melanie to get some dessert.

But she also knew that even if the sky fell, it wouldn't change Melantha's habit.

At the corner, Melantha and Katie parted ways temporarily, agreeing that Melantha would call Katie after her training was over.

As Katie stepped into the elevator, Melanie turned around as well.

"Melansha..."

Melanie's ears twitched, and she instinctively turned around.

There was no one behind them, and it was still more than ten minutes before dinner time. At this time, the operators were still at their posts.

It's started again.

Melanie rubbed her forehead.

Recently, she has felt someone calling her again.

However, this time, I didn't feel the same palpitation as before.

But...

This call always made Melanie want to see her teacher.

It had been almost a year since she last saw her teacher, and Melanie's longing for her grew stronger with each passing day.

"What is the teacher doing at this time?"

As Xiao Meilansha pondered this question, she walked briskly toward the training room.

The pendant hanging around my neck was still slightly warm.

Northern Ursus, frozen permafrost.

The war in Victoria had absolutely no impact on this snowfield that had been frozen for millions of years.

Ursus soldiers are still here suppressing the infected.

However, the recent emergence of small groups of resistance forces has caused considerable headaches for the soldiers here.

Because of this incident, the Emperor of Ursus secretly dispatched several of his imperial guards to investigate the situation and prevent the resurgence of the Reunion Movement.

It's inside a cave in this land.

Snapped!

A piece of firewood was thrown into the campfire in front of him.

The spiral-shaped longsword standing upright in the campfire was scorched by the flames, and sparks flew from its blade.

The man glanced at the weather outside the cave.

Dawn had broken and the wind and snow had stopped.

He stood up, his armor clanking with each movement.

"Its daybreak."

The Undead said, pulling the spiral sword from the campfire and hanging it at his waist.

"Let's go."

Before even reaching the outskirts of Ursus, the Undead wanted to see what was so special about this so-called forbidden zone overrun by demons.

Perhaps he can find a way to go beyond the barriers of the world here.

"Don't rush."

The blindfolded woman pulled the immortal back.

Under the gaze of the undead, he draped the black robe over him again and tied it in knots on the shoulder armor.

Although men don't need these warm-weather protection measures, women are clearly very pleased with their handiwork.

The Fire Mage nodded, then grasped the Undead's outstretched hand.

"Alright, let's go!"

The two emerged from the cave, their figures disappearing into the boundless snowfield.

Their voices faded into the distance with the icy wind.

Their story is not over yet; everyone is still on their journey.

Yes, that's right.

Like a flame that quietly ignites in endless darkness.

One day, the roads will come together again.

“Let’s look around for a few more days, then we’ll go back to Rhodes Island. I miss Miss Blue Poison’s desserts, and you haven’t seen Melantha in a long time.”

"Ah."

"Oh, right, judging by the time, the Major should be starting soon. Mr. Ender should have already given the shield to little Malia, right? Shall we take Melantha along to watch?"

"it is good."

Let's have your closing remarks!
