The seven evil beasts were successfully conquered, and the areas affected by the Emperor's Domain gradually returned to normal. The extraordinary creatures that were dispersed by the disaster returned to the secret realm of the fusion period, and the humans who once lived in the domain were able to return to their hometown.

[Brave] Eren completed the prophesied revival pilgrimage and opened up a new future for the Hela region.

The news of victory spread to every corner of the Hela region. Everyone praised the name of the brave man and was grateful for the changes he brought to the world.

The human side established a united alliance country, arranged a grand celebration banquet for the triumphant pilgrimage team, and even established this day as the [Renaissance Day] to commemorate the great deeds of the [brave man].

The celebration banquet lasted for a total of seven days. Allen didn't want to join in the trouble, but on the last day, he finally succumbed to the invitation of the country's top leaders and attended the banquet as the finale.

Mu Huoyue went to the banquet with him. The Dark Star Dragon's current size made it difficult for it to move around in human towns. Fortunately, after the contract was signed, Ellen also had a [Beast Taming Space] in the spiritual realm, allowing her to stay here comfortably.

According to the standards set by future generations, Ellen, who had completed the Renaissance Tour, was already considered a Level 9 Legendary Beastmaster. His beast taming space was very wide, but not yet vast.

Mu Huiyue's [Beast Taming Space] is bound to the system of "Elf Ranch Story" and awakened, so the interior of the space has always been in the appearance of a ranch. This is her first time to enter the spiritual domain of other beast tamers.

It is said that the [Beast Taming Space] will be formed according to the Beast Tamer's own talent type and the stability of the spiritual realm. Everyone's Beast Taming Space has different degrees of differences.

Eren's beast-controlling space is his concept of home.

The main body of the space looks like an old castle, where Ellen was born as the son of a country noble.

The castle is very large, with functional facilities such as towers and moats. However, the living areas such as rooms and backyards appear a bit shabby and full of traces of time, as if they were buildings handed down from a long time ago.

Next to the old castle, Ellen built a resting area specifically for the Dark Star Dragon that was suitable for her body size. It seemed a bit crude from a human perspective, but it was just right for a dragon.

Mu Chuyue lay in the rest area for a while bored, and then couldn't help but look at the ancient castle next door, and fiddled with the location of the gate and the inner courtyard with his claws.

With her current size, this castle in the Beast Taming Space is like an exquisite miniature model, which is very interesting.

This is the "home" in Allen's memory. Traces of his childhood life are left everywhere, such as the wooden stakes for practicing swords and the stables filled with hay.

There should be spaces such as bedrooms, dining rooms, and study rooms inside the castle, but the distance between the floors was too small, and Mu Chuyue's paws could not squeeze in. He shook his head regretfully.

As she was thinking, she suddenly heard Eren's voice coming from the contract link.

[Huh... these people finally let me go. 】

[Hiiragi, do you want to come out for some fresh air? The scenery here is beautiful. 】

[Huh?] 】 (The banquet hall can’t accommodate me, right?)

[It’s okay, I’m on the balcony. The back garden is very large, enough for you to move around. 】

Since Ellen said so, Mu Huiyue was indeed curious about the celebration party, so she left the Beast Taming Space through the summoning circle.

The Nine-Layered Imperial Patterned Summoning Array flashed by, and a giant dark dragon appeared in the back garden. Its erect dragon pupils were the color of rosy clouds, like starlight under the setting sun.

The scenery in the back garden was indeed beautiful, with patches of dark blue roses planted there. Under the moonlight, it seemed to be glowing with star-like phosphorescent light, like a dark blue ocean.

This is an extraordinary plant cultivated from the secret realm of the fusion period, and was given to the human alliance by the wood-type race [Flower Language Nightingale] that cooperated during the pilgrimage.

Mu Huoyue saw the blond young man standing in front of the terrace and moved his huge head over.

Ellen wore a banquet attire today, which made him look even taller and more slender.

The arduous pilgrimage of sleeping outdoors for many years did not wear away the gentle and elegant side of him. In this banquet attended by mostly nobles, he still behaved exceptionally well and became the most eye-catching person in the whole audience.

Only when he was in front of his most trusted partner did Ellen finally show a look of relaxation.

He leaned against the hollow iron railing of the terrace and reached out to loosen his collar a little.

This posture seemed strangely familiar to Mu Chuyue. She felt as if she had seen people leaning against the wall like this in other places.

She turned her head, her huge dragon eyes smiling as she asked inquiringly.

"Gaoh?" (How does it feel to be at a party full of high-class people?)

"Ah... we finally finished the restoration tour, and there is still so much work to be done in post-disaster reconstruction, but these bigwigs inside don't seem to care much."

The blond young man shrugged, changed his posture, leaned on the terrace with his hands, and his eyes fell on the back garden which was particularly quiet compared to the banquet hall.

"Before I came of age, my father actually took me to several banquets hosted by nobles. However, my family was the most insignificant one at that time, and no one in the audience was interested in me."

"So this is the first time I've ever been to a banquet where people kept talking to me and introducing me to other people..."

He paused, "If I were to say how it feels, it's actually not as relaxing as before. It's tiring to keep talking. I hope it won't happen again, but that's probably just my wishful thinking."

"Although it is a good thing to establish a united alliance, judging from the problems exposed at today's banquet, there is still a long way to go in future reconstruction work..."

"I still hope that the human alliance can live in harmony with the extraordinary creatures and even form a country where they can live together."

"Gah." (With this [Contract], this day will come soon.)

Mu Huoyue was not just trying to make him happy. Future history would bear witness to all of this. From then on, the relationship between humans and supernatural creatures would have completely new possibilities, and the development context of the [Main World] would be constructed from the root.

"Well... I believe you, Hiiragi." The blond young man looked at her with a slight smile.

Then Allen lowered his eyes, showing a hesitant expression. For some reason, Mu Huiyue felt some sadness in his eyes.

"Hiiragi...there's a question I've always wanted to ask you." The blond young man said.

"You actually... possess a human soul, right?"

The huge black dragon slowly opened its eyes, but did not deny Eren's guess.

"...Gaoh?" (...How did you find out?)

It was a rare opportunity to see a look of surprise in Dark Star Dragon's eyes, and Eren couldn't help but smile.

"I saw some signs from the beginning. After all, Hiiragizuki, for a newly hatched dragon, you are so human."

"They must have a pillow when they sleep, and they tend to use tools when they eat... They are not used to controlling their wings and tails, but they are very skilled at walking upright."

"Most importantly, no newly born dragon will have a name like a human girl's."

After saying this, Ellen felt a little embarrassed, his ears turned slightly red, and he scratched his cheek embarrassedly, not daring to look at the huge vertical pupils of the Dark Night Star Dragon.

"I don't know if this would be disrespectful to you..."

The blond young man exhaled lightly, and then, as if he had finally made up his mind, he mustered up the courage to look his contract partner straight in the eyes.

"If possible, I want to see what you look like as a human... Is that okay?"

Mu Huiyue swung his thick and powerful dragon tail behind him. He didn't expect Ellen to make such a request.

However, this was not a difficult task for her. After evolving into a miracle fantasy race, her core talent skill became a dark S-level special skill [Crescent Moon Reflection]. She could manipulate the shadows to create the appearance of a human with just a thought.

The shadows under Eren's feet surged, suddenly rose from the ground and gathered into a shape, vaguely piecing together the outline of a human female of the same age as him.

She was taller and more powerful than most women of this era. The outline of her clothes was a shape that Ellen had never seen before. She had waist-length black hair, which was extremely rare in the Hela region, and equally dark eyes.

The human figure sculpted by the shadow could not appear more refined, but Ellen was more surprised than ever before, and became visibly uneasy in front of this figure.

"I... that..."

The blond young man's ears felt hot and his face was almost flushed. He no longer had the calm and elegant demeanor he had at the banquet.

He took a deep breath, then touched his chest and bowed, extending his hand to Mu Huoyue who was made up of shadows.

"Can I ask you for a dance, Miss Hiiragi?"

The human-shaped shadow swayed slightly in front of this invitation.

Mu Chuyue's heartstrings seemed to be gently plucked, causing ripples to spread out.

There was no need to recall any vague sense of déjà vu. This time, the blond young man's posture of bowing and saluting completely overlapped with the skull with blue flames burning in the right eye in the memory.

The human-shaped shadow smiled, lifted up the non-existent hem of her skirt, and returned the greeting of walking with the blond young man.

Ellen placed her hand pretentiously on Shadow's waist and led her in the first dance step.

The same melody, and the same gentle movements and eyes.

However, Ellen was extremely nervous at this time, and the dance steps he led were a little stiff, not as calm and composed as during the Dance of Evolution.

Mu Chuyue gazed into his azure blue eyes. The surrounding scenery swirled backwards with the dance steps. The dark blue roses in the back garden glowed faintly under the moonlight, just like the dark blue flames reflected everywhere in his memory.

The answers to the future and the past are all in this moment.

When the song ended, Allen stopped at an appropriate position, but the terrace was a bit narrow, and he stepped on the edge of the stone bench and almost tripped.

The Dark Night Star Dragon stretched out the tip of its tail and gave him a helping hand caringly. The blond young man felt even more embarrassed, and his ears turned visibly red.

The humanoid shadow gradually dissipated in the moonlight, leaving only the dark dragon still watching him.

Afterwards, even the body of the Dark Night Star Dragon began to blur as if it was melted by the moonlight, and it looked like it was about to gradually dissipate.

Eren looked up, not surprised.

"Is it almost time to end?"

"I think so... After all, our original agreement was to complete the revival pilgrimage."

It was because he guessed this that he was able to muster up the courage to make such a request to Hiiragi at the banquet tonight.

If I don't say it now, she may never have the chance to know it again.

Mu Chuyue felt the rapidly collapsing force of time and space in her body. Her existence was being rejected by this time and space, and she would soon enter a state of shuttle.

The young human on the terrace took two steps forward. There was a mist in his eyes, but he still kept smiling in front of his contracted partner.

"Thank you for coming here and meeting me, Hiiragi."

"future……"

"Will we be able to meet again in the future?"

The Dark Star Dragon's tail rolled up a blue rose blooming in the back garden and handed it to the blond human youth.

"Gah..." (I will, I promise...)

"Gah." (The blue rose will lead us back together.)

Ellen took the blooming blue rose, and the figure of the Dark Night Star Dragon became increasingly blurred under the moonlight until it completely disappeared.

The night wind blew gently through the quiet back garden, and the patches of dark blue roses seemed to be on fire, with a low rustling sound.

It seemed as if she had never appeared, yet she did exist in his heart.
