RUMBLE!

The Undead Tower made by Elfina when she was being possessed by Hel finally crumbled apart, leaving only a pile of bones over the desert. Meanwhile, the rest of us miraculously managed to run away in time, reaching the night skies above Goldsand.

The battle against the Undead Army was long, it literally took the entire day from morning to the night that was now upon us. The desert was still… the same as before. Thankfully, amongst all places in the world a desert is perfect for battles because there's literally nothing to worry about other than the city of Goldsand, the rest is just plain old sand.

And… yeah, we saved her, finally. Elfina was with us, safe and healthy. I carried her in my arms carefully, while we flew across the skies and then descended over the Goldsand City. Thanks to Yggdra's efforts, and everyone else, the city was also fine and didn't ended up being destroyed. Which was very relieving.

"Woooah. I've missed seeing the sky like this, with everyone else…" Elfina said, as tears flowed from her eyes. "Thank you, everyone… Thank you for coming for me… Thank you for not… forgetting me."

"Of course we wouldn't forget you." I sighed.

"Young Lady, we would never abandon you." Fiere said.

"Indeed, you're my Summoner and our friend. You've helped me more than you think." Sol sighed, probably recalling that one talk he had with Elfina back then.

"Well, it is my duty as the guardian of the elven forest to protect their princess." Luminous said, trying to fake that he wasn't embarrassed and happy he could cry.

"Geez, you guys are all acting cool but you're just holding back your tears, don't you?" I joked around. "I remember you guys crying every single day about Elfina. Where is Elfina? Ooh Elfina! I miss Elfina so much! I want her to be with us! Elfina! Elfinaaaa~!"

"Hey cut it out!" Fiere angrily said.

"Hahaha, I guess I am guilty." Sol sighed, cleaning one of his tears.

"Hah… Y-You damn worm!" Luminous was about to hit me before Elfina started to laugh.

"Heheheh, I've missed you guys too! I've missed this atmosphere…" She began to laugh while crying tears of happiness. "I am so happy we're all together once more!"

"Y-Young Lady…" Fiere began tearing up at long last.

"E-Elfina…" Luminous couldn't contain it as his big eyes began crying enormous waterfalls.

"T-This is the first time I see Luminous crying." Said Brunhild in surprise.

"T-To think an ancient dragon can cry…" Ariant was shocked.

"Y-Yeah…" Eriant was surprised.

"I guess you guys really love her." Frank laughed. "I am glad we've got her back then! One of the many tasks done."

Elfina was surprised by the new assortment of friends accompanying us this time around. The giantess Brunhild, the twin Desert Elves Ariant and Eriant, and of course, the cosmic boy Frank!

"Y-You all have made so many new companions." Elfina was surprised. "T-Thank you so much for helping me and my friends!" She began bowing her head before them.

"T-There's no need to bow your head, Princess Elfina! Y-You're royalty after all!" Ariant panicked.

"Yes please rise it up, we know you're a Legendary Summoner Princess of the Wood Elf Kingdom! You're known even in the deserts." Said Eriant.

"I heard a lot about you too! So you were the one that summoned Sol and Kireina to this world? That's just amazing." Brunhild said.

"I bet it must have been hard to control Kireina when you summoned her." Frank joked around.

"Y-Yes, something like that." Said Elfina while feeling embarrassed. "May I know your names?"

"Oh right, let me present them to you." I said. "This gorgeous young lady over here is the giantess Brunhild, a magician extraordinaire, she can learn any magic by just seeing it with her eyes! These two beautiful twins are the Desert Elves Ariant and Eriant, they're amazing at Spirit Magic, and also at Magic Sword techniques, and of course, this handsome young man over here, is the cosmic boy Frank!"

"H-Handsome?" Frank suddenly blushed a bit. "Wait, why did you called me Cosmic Boy? Is that my new name now?!"

"Hehehe, yeah~" I laughed evilly. "Isn't that what you are anyways? A cosmic boy."

"Uugh…" Frank got as red as a tomato.

My teasing only made him embarrassed. Yet it felt like he didn't mind it? It's not like he fought back or called me something either. Anyways, Elfina was happy with everyone here.

"I am so happy we've made so many friends now! I hope I can become your friend too!" Elfina said. "I-I don't know if I can summon anything for now but I am good at support magic and healing magic."

"We've been needing a good healer for a while so that works." Said Eriant.

"Yeah, jut having you around is enough, you look to be a fun person, Princess Elfina!" Ariant was already happy to have another girl her age to talk with.

"Same! I hope we can get along too. And… I hope you don't mind my height and all…" Brunhild said while fidgeting around.

"O-Of course not! You're so pretty and big, Brunhild. In fact I am happy to meet many people of different tribes." Elfina said. "I've always wished for our tribes to get along. Maybe one day we can achieve it."

"Childish yet inspiring words, I would say." Luminous giggled. "I shall assist you in such an unrealistic dream, Princess Elfina."

"Thank you Luminous." Elfina smiled back.

"Now, now, little princess, we're finally back to our temporary base of operations. Welcome to the Oasis City of Goldsand!" I said, as we landed over the city. Thousands of people greeted us, including a giant caravan of handsome and beautiful male and female dancers carrying a large throne where Oro was sitting over.

"Kireina! Everyone! Oh my god! You're all fine after all of that?! I am so happyyyyy!" He jumped straight over all of us, hugging us all and even giving us kisses on our cheeks.

"Uwaah! W-Who is this man?!" Elfina panicked because of how touchy Oro was.

"Him? Oh he's the King of Goldsand." I said.

"EEEH?!" Elfina was shocked.
