In front of the Demon King's Castle.
The land was ravaged, with terrifying ravines everywhere.
The lingering magical turbulence in the air crackled and popped like invisible firecrackers.
The chaotic magical elements are comparable to deadly poison; anyone below the Law level who enters the battlefield will die within ten seconds.
"Have I forgotten something?"
Leah landed on the ground, bewildered.
He glanced at the Demon King's castle ahead, then at the fiery red greatsword in his hand.
Since the Demon King Hades was killed by the White Doves, why is she crying? The legendary swordsman "Blossoming Flame" is known for her bravery and fearlessness; she would never cry on the battlefield.
"Hahaha, we won!"
Tiger walked over excitedly, "Silly girl, don't cry, the Demon King is dead, all those demon legends have surrendered, we adventurers have won, we are all heroes!"
Bai Luo also smiled and said, "Captain Lia, this is another pleasant collaboration."
"Yes, Captain Bai Luo."
Despite having worked with Luanweihua for a long time, she still wasn't used to being called "Captain Bai Luo".
On the battlefield, Isa, Abner, and Evelyn all wore expressions filled with deep emotion.
The group stood side by side in front of the ruins of the Demon King's castle, reflecting on their experiences over the past decade.
Bitterness, grievances, and the joy of victory.
Some people laughed, while others cried.
We won.
The war is over.
The ten years of war have become history in books.
A new chapter has begun in the mysterious continent.
The third princess, Audrey, ascended to the throne as empress. Before the sacred tree, she bestowed the "Hero of Honor" medal upon the legends who participated in the final battle at the Demon King's castle.
The grand "Revival Calendar" has begun.
Earth and wood elemental adventurers are highly sought after, becoming experts in city construction, and the capital city has allocated substantial financial support to them.
The dilapidated secret realm continent, like parched land irrigated by spring rain, has been reborn.
Three years after the war ended, the Snow Goose Adventure Team arrived at the 49th floor of the World Tree without any major incidents.
As for the 50th floor, it has already been sealed off.
The 50th floor will only open when the Demon King is "resurrected" again.
Snow Goose's adventure has come to an end.
Leah decides to peacefully disband the adventure team.
After retiring, they devoted themselves to various industries, continuing to contribute their energy and enthusiasm to the rejuvenation of the mainland.
Aiko chose the clothing industry and opened a shop called "Tea Love" in the capital, mainly dealing in women's clothing and lingerie. Its taste far surpassed "Elf House," and within just six months, it swept through the capital, becoming the largest clothing brand, and even showing a trend of expanding to cities throughout the continent.
Lia heard that even in White Dove City, some people had joined Eko's "Tea Love" clothing store franchise.
After their marriage, Oru and Kaine ran a trading company, reselling magical equipment, and it seemed to be quite profitable. They were both very kind and often donated to adventurers who were too poor to afford food.
Phyllis, the former commander of Xueyan, joined the Academy of Sages.
That's a top-tier academy of knowledge; I heard they're researching an iron shell that can move without magic.
What surprised Leah the most was Chrona.
That seemingly dim-witted, willful, and mischievous little devil has somehow become a refined, bespectacled, and well-mannered comic book author.
Her novel, "After Leaving the Party, I and the Adventurer Uncle Actually Became the Strongest in the World!", entered the top three on the bestseller list in the royal capital. One day, Lia encountered Chrona on the street, who was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic fans.
She's beautiful, creates comic books, and is a legendary figure with explosive popularity.
Lia glanced furtively at Chrona's chest, then at her own, and left with a dark expression.
As for the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team and the Ice Flower, they have also made good progress.
Bai Luo became a teacher, specializing in training elite adventurers.
Monica becomes a renowned magic game designer and plans to adapt Chrona's comic book. The two live together and are like sisters.
Tagore went to wander in the wilderness, intending to eat all the delicacies of the continent.
It feels like everyone is doing something very meaningful.
Only Lia herself seemed to have lost her soul after the battle at the Demon King's castle. She couldn't enjoy her food, and she couldn't sleep. She felt a tightness in her chest, making it difficult to breathe.
She went to see the pastor, who told her she had "anxiety disorder." This was a disease that had surged in the wake of the war.
Many people are worried about losing their homes and jobs, while adventurers are struggling to find the motivation to continue climbing the World Tree.
The priest told Leah, "You love adventure the most, don't you? Now that you're so strong, there are no more risks for you to take, so you can't muster the energy to do anything."
The solution is actually quite simple.
Just find something to do to keep yourself occupied.
Leah walked out of the church, still confused.
After thinking about it, I decided to try the pastor's method.
What she chose to do was grow some flowers and plants.
People have said before that she has a bad temper and is irritable.
Growing flowers can effectively improve this shortcoming.
So, Lia bought a mansion in the suburbs of the capital.
The place is located near a forest, very quiet, and has a large, private courtyard, perfect for cultivating one's mind.
A year has passed.
Two years.
Five years
Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Leah's situation did not improve.
She became increasingly withdrawn.
At first, they would even leave their mansions and go for a stroll in the capital.
When they got to the back, they simply bought a cartload of food and locked themselves in the courtyard.
Eko, Chrona, and the others were very worried and came to visit Leah.
But Leah's demeanor was quite normal; she only said that she didn't want to go out because she was lazy and didn't need to worry about it.
