Chapter 1326 Happy Ending
"They look happy."
The one who spoke was Jane Ursula, and while she was a considerable distance from the wedding, she could see everything that went on in it.
She had dropped by just earlier, and even dropped a present for Jared, but she knew when to leave.
Once she concluded her sentence, she turned to a figure that was standing beside her.
He wore a hood that concealed his face, but she could see him clearly.
His long black hair and blue eyes, with his perfect body made him as endearing to be with as always.
"You're not saying anything." Jane nudged him, as he was still looking at the wedding in silence.
"Don't tell me you also want to get married." Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates
Even though Jane said this in a playful tone, there was a hint of seriousness in her voice.
"Na! I'm just looking at the Jared fellow. I still can't believe we're the same person."
"Well... you're not exactly the same." Jane corrected
"Yeah, I know. He has two lives worth of memories and all. Plus, he has a different disposition from me."
"Exactly! That's why I brought you back."
The hooded man beside her, the Lewis Griffith she remembered from the past, leaked out a smile.
He turned to her and nudged her back.
"Thanks for that, by the way."
"You're welcome, old friend." Jane chuckled.
"Thanks to you, I can finally practice Magic properly and explore all the things I was unable to in the past."
"Hey! What do you mean 'I'?!" Jane responded with a slight frown on her face.
It was cute having a fairy with a round face as hers frown, so Lewis chuckled at the sight.
"Sorry. I meant WE. We're going to explore and achieve great things together, Jane."
The Fairy smiled in agreement, bobbing her head furiously.
"That's more like it!"
They both laughed, enjoying the moment they spent with each other.
Even when they weren't engaged in deep Magic Research and discussions, it was clear that they still enjoyed each other's company.
After laughing for a while, though, there was silence between the two.
"You know, there's apparently infinite realities out there. If you want, we can find one where Emilia is—"
"Nah! She wouldn't be the same." Lewis swiftly responded.
However, he wasn't frowning or looking sad.
"Jared was able to move on and find Maria, while the other Lewis got together with Karlia. It's time I also moved forward with my life."
This version of Lewis Griffith—Lewis Prime—knew exactly what he wanted to pursue and who he wanted to do it with.
"I want to explore Magic to the end... with you."
His feet did not touch the ground, and while he seemed to be nothing but a senile old man with a few screws loose in his head, no one could deny his power.
... The power that defied the world.
"You're... Crazy Neron, right?"
"Crazy? Who's crazy? Me? You? We're all crazy! Hahaha!"
Of course, Crazy Neron would speak gibberish as he addressed Jared and his lovely wife.
He truly knew no restraint.
"Hey! Stop describing me that way! Oh, I'm not talking about you, Jared. I'm talking about that silly... hey! I said stop doing that!"
Everyone around Crazy Neron thought he was crazy for sure, and he grumbled in frustration.
As long as he remained within this reality—this existence—he would have to endure it.
"Damn Crafter..." He mumbled, but decided to let it go quite quickly.
There was no longer any need to let these sort of things get to him.
"I'm leaving this place now. Have fun in your life, Jared."
"Oh? You're returning to your homeworld?"
"What? Hell no! I'm ditching this entire string of existence! I'm making my own and living out the rest of my life there!"
"O-ohhh... well, good luck."
"Pfft! Luck? I don't need luck! I have all I need now! Just decided to show up cus apparently... well, never mind that."
Crazy Neron eventually ditched the party after taking in as much booze as he could fill into his belly, and vanished from the world.
... The whole world.
"Damn... Kuzon was right. That guy is a nut job." Jared mumbled under his breath.
Those were the last words recorded that referred to the Crazy Old Man in any way.
In conclusion, though, everyone had a happy ending.
The kind they desired and deserved.
But... how long would this last?
Perhaps they could find out after some time had passed.
