Chapter 361 - The Ark Of Gab And Charisma

"Yes, I get what you mean."

"As for your wife, I am glad that she wants to have a family with you. You should feel lucky, not everyone gets a partner that looks like the other. And she should be lucky to have such a brave husband by her side," said Mavislin, finally finding the gem.

"I'm not brave, I hide in the shadows instead of doing the physical works. How am I brave?" asked Gab, smiling.

"Going the extra mile for the person you love, even if it means to break your boundaries and beliefs. That is truly a brave thing to do. Not all victories need to have a pile of bodies stacked beneath someone. It can be the little things that matter more."

"You are human, remember that. Within your short lifespan, you should be free to do whatever you want. Even if the risks are high because if you don't try, you'll never know. And Charisma would be more than happy to know that you want to be with her forever."

Mavislin's back erupted two beautiful blue wings, signifying her Water Element for a short while. She then forcefully pulled out a handful of feathers, scaring the poor Baron.

"Hang on! Doesn't that hurt?" asked Gab, slightly concerned at the Valkyrie's sudden actions.

"Yes, it does. But it won't compare to the amount of courage you had to muster for you to make this decision. To be honest, of all the humans I've encountered, I've never encountered anyone whose story is as powerful as yours."

"Compared to you Mages, my story is merely a fraction of yours," said Gab, sighing.

"Don't compare yourself to the Mages. As I said, you've already been through so much and yet you still strive to be happy on your own accord. That should warrant my praise to you. You have my full respect and I am very glad I can help you with your marriage," said Mavislin, with a grin.

She held up the circular gem for Gab to see. It was a vibrant shade of blue, it would fill the ocean's colors. Mavislin then cupped the gem with her hands a muttered a spell., along with the few blue feathers. Light spewed out from her palms and quickly died down.

As she opened her palms, Gab was mesmerized by what Mages could do to inanimate objects. It was a necklace that had the blue gem from earlier. But now, it had two feathers at its rim, particularly at the Southeast and Southwest of the gem. It looked so simple yet so beautiful.

"I guarantee that she would love this. I made it extra special, so be there to help her put it on. Alright?" asked Mavislin, keeping her wings.

"It must be so small, to easily have made such a simple gift. But it's still so perfect. All I ever wanted is like what this gem is, a simple but beautiful life," said Gab, keeping the necklace.

" 'Simple'?" asked Ysabeau, as she joined in the two's conversation.

"Yea, that was quite a simple spell, is it not?" asked Gab, confused.

"Mavislin may be well-versed with all of the Basic Elements but their weakest is Water. She hates using Water as her Element, right?" asked Ysabeau, nudging Mavislin's side.

"Yes, but after the training that you lot put me through, I don't mind such a small thing. Though if I were to use a Fire gift for you, it would be easier for me to create and better gift. But the theme of Fire does not suit you two well," explained Mavislin, sighing.

"Thank you."

With the necklace in hand, off Gab went to propose to his wife. To their pleasant surprise, Mavislin did have another trick up her sleeve. The moment Gab helped Charisma to put on the necklace, the feathers grew out and covered her body with an elegant dress of blue.

To top it off, frilly ends of the hem of the address and a bow on the back of the dress. Its collar and semi-long sleeves were slightly feathery. The gem sat nicely on Charisma's ċhėst, shining proudly.

"That Valkyrie... What kind of surprises was she thinking about?" asked Gab, smiling.

"Whatever they are, it's fantastic. I love this. Thank you so much," said Charisma, giving a twirl in front of Gab.

"Nope, thank you for letting me start a family with you."

Soon, the wedding was held with that same dress and a year later, Kai came into the picture. At the same time, the rise of the Umbras started but it was under the radar. And when they went full-force, Gab was the first to be drafted into action.

He led his army to support the Arks when the others were compromised.. He witnessed the Corrupted One.
