"Looks like you girls have been having some fun, huh?" Zack walked in accompanied by Mist.
"Oh, Zack! The only man I don't mind seeing their ugly face…" Aquarina sighed in relief, petting his head.
"Ugly face?!" Zack cried, offended.
"You're handsome, don't worry!" Mist smiled back at him.
"Hahh… She's always such a bully, honestly." Zack sighed, comforted by his cute girlfriend. "A-Anyways, I saw you girls getting flocked by playboys, what's up with that?"
"A bunch of idiots trying to get the chance for arranged marriages or something." Aquarina said. "They got spooked away anyways!"
"We've been mostly enjoying the food, it's really good actually." I said with a giggle. "A-Anyways, Mist, are enjoying things?"
"Oh? Yeah!" Mist said. "I've grown a bit used to ignoring people's glares, I just feel safe as long as I'm with Zacky. He holds my hand tightly, and lets me grab his arm… So I don't care about the rest of the world!"
"If anybody tries to do something to her they'll meet my fist." Zack said, gripping his fist tightly.
"C-Calm down a bit there, you might incapacitate some of the people here with a mere punch, we've grown a bit too strong now." I laughed. "Anyways, where's Celeste and Celica? And Lara and Luck?"
"They're over there, the four of them had not stopped eating the meat section since we got here!" Mist said, pointing at them enjoying the food.
Lara was not eating meat though but was right at the side on the vegetable section, she found meat most of the time quite gross, but loved veggies.
"Oh, I guess they're happy on their own little world." I laughed.
"Big sis!"
Suddenly, Zephy and Nephilim walked in from behind. Zephy jumped on my legs and didn't let go, while Nephilim constantly tried to drag him away from me.
"Young lord, it's not good to do this in front of a crowd… You're going to embarrass my master." She said.
"It's okay, it's fine." I laughed, as I lifted Zephy up and helped him get piggybacked. "If it's my cute brother we're talking about, then it doesn't really matter that much!"
"Big sis you're piggybacking me?!" Zephy was amazed. "Oh wow, you're as strong as dad too?!"
"Of course, if I can beat Rank 9 foes I can surely lift my brother and give him a piggyback now and then!" I giggled.
"Yaaay!"
Zephy was happy as I lifted him up, and he was beginning to use my head like a drum, tapping it to make sounds.
"H-Hey! Don't do that, you pesky little…!"
"Hehehehe!"
He kept giggling playfully, so I couldn't really get angry at him…
"Attention everyone, the King has a few words to say." Suddenly, Francois, who my mother told me was the actual Minister of Finances, stepped in, bringing the attention of all the nobles.
My grandfather stepped in, as he suddenly glanced at me, calling me with his hand to come over…?I felt slightly frozen once he did the gestures.
Like, was he really calling ME to get there?!
"Can I bring Zephy?" I asked him without making a sound, he read my lips easily.
He nodded.
"Okay Zephy, better behave in front of grandpa."
"Okay…"
I quickly put him down into the floor, as the two of us walked in, he held my hand tightly as he saw many eyes glaring at him.
"Today, we're commemorating an incredible feat, something that nobody of us has ever accomplished in the last five hundred years, the defeat of a Demon Lord by the hands of these young brave heroes." He said, suddenly and gently tapping my shoulder. "And of course, my second youngest granddaughter, Sylph, is among these heroes. I've heard from the Previous Heroes, and even her friends already, and everyone agrees in how amazing she is, and how her leadership has brought everyone together more than ever."
The nobles glanced at the scene in surprise, their eyes directed towards me… And Zephy, who was just as confused as I was. Where was this leading to anyways?! Was he just really praising me to get along with me now?
Suddenly, Aquarina, Zack, Mist, Celeste, Celica, Lara, and Luck stepped into my side, called by Francois, as the King suddenly summoned a huge golden scroll.
"And because of their amazing intelligence, strength, talent, and the leadership of the friend that brings them all together, I've decided to give her and all her friends a special, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, to enter in the most prestigious academy in the entire continent." He said. "The Merlinus Academy of Magic, Alchemy, Crafting, and Swordsmanship!"
"Oooh…"
"Those children are going to the academy?!"
"Wait, even the demons?"
"T-This is unheard of!"
"I can't believe what I'm seeing."
"T-This…"
"Wait, what?!" Celeste asked in surprise. "My King, us too?"
"Yes." The King nodded. "All of you, demons, anima, elves, humans. You're all welcome to the academy. This is a special scroll, once you sign it, you'll be able to go to the academy for the usual three-year scholarship, completely for free, and with all other things paid. This is my gift to all of you, to reward you for your efforts, and for saving our country. You're unseen heroes, and I shall reward your feats."
"Grandpa…" I felt moved. "Thank you…"
"And Sylph…" He suddenly added, with a lower tone of voice. "I'm… sorry, for having been rough back then. I was testing you, but over time, I've realized that wasn't the way. I first had doubts, but I should had never doubted you. My grandchild, you're an incredible person, and I want you, to one day… become someone that could change the world."
His emerald eyes glanced straight through my soul, as I felt even more moved… All this time I always had a slightly negative view on him, but over time I've also changed it after my mother always told me about his feats, and about how hard he worked to protect the country.
"I honestly would prefer if you just called me Sylphy!" I giggled. "And it's fine, I know you're a good grandpa deep down!"
"S-Sylphy…" My grandfather was suddenly moved to tears, as he hugged me tightly with his enormous and bulky arms.
"Guakh…! G-Grandpa?!" I felt shocked by his shown of affection.
But above all, he was so strong I felt like I was being asphyxiated by his bear hug!
