Chapter 1251: My Dear Friends

Only with my friends here would I ever talk so casually about everything, joke with them about the dumbest of things, and then laugh about the lightest of jokes.

Mist\'s gentle yet cheerful and positive smile.

Zack\'s comforting presence, like the big brother I never had.

Celica\'s cuteness and her often surprisingly thoughtful remarks.

Celeste\'s snarky comments and sense of humor.

Lara\'s extrovert personality and her unyielding happiness, always ready to spread smiles to everyone.

Luck\'s calm and composed presence, a hard worker that always tried to make others happy. My little brother, brave, bold, and a bit reckless, but that was always trying his best to not disappoint anybody, even though there was no need to do so.

And Aquarina, strong, dependable, always there for me, and that also has a cute and lovable side, a bit lazy too, but I love her for how she is.

Everyone...

My beloved friends.

I love you all so much!

I think it will be really, really hard to be away from you.

Not just Aquarina, but everyone else!

They\'re my everything in a way, my family, and they complement me.

I will go with Celica and Celeste, so I won\'t be totally alone, I will try to deepen my friendship with them as well.

But everyone else... I will miss them.

It might be just one year, or it could extend for over three years.

But I know that it will hurt even if it ends up being just a single year where we\'ll be apart.

Growing up with them at my side, we are more than just friends.

We\'re a family.

I wish we could be together forever, I really wish...

But we all have our separate lives at the end, and our own paths to walk through.

Although our paths will combine together and become one sometimes, we must also step into the unknown, away from our comfort zone.

Even though it is so sad, I have to accept this.

I think that the time I am away from them will only make my love for my friends grow stronger.

So when we finally meet, I\'ll be so happy, we might become even bester friends!

"Cheers, everyone!" I raised my cup with grape juice.

"Cheers!" Zack smiled.

"Yeah!" Mist nodded.

"It\'s a bit lame without wine, but oh well, cheers~" Celeste said.

"Cheers big sis!" Zephy adorably said.

"Hehe, cheers-!" Celica smiled.

"Cheers, everyone," Luck nodded.

"Cheers~" Aquarina said, kissing my cheek.

Our cups raised high and then touched, the sound of the crystal reverberating across the busy and loud background of the restaurant.

We had a really good day, and then, once we were finally done, we moved back home after saying our thanks to Joseph.

"Have a good day! Remember that starting next time you have to pay, sorry but I can\'t invite you to a meal every day, haha!" he laughed as he waved his hand to us.

"Don\'t worry, thank you for everything!" I said.

Once we returned home, the sun was slowly setting in the horizon. We decided to quickly split all the earnings of today, and I also assessed my gains. Although I didn\'t ask for any money, I kept a lot of materials for myself.

"So this should be enough for each person, if its in equal terms," I nodded, giving away bags with gold tablets, which were worth many gold coins. "Any questions? Make sure to check your bags well anyways."

"Yeah, it\'s fine," Zack nodded. "But I\'m still wondering, are you sure you don\'t want to take some of the money? I feel a bit bad taking so much..."

"Yeah Sylphy! You don\'t need to be so selfless with us..." Celeste said with puppy eyes.

"We know you work hard, and you did a lot too!" Aquarina cried. "So take some at least! I feel bad if I take so much..."

"Don\'t worry, it\'s fine, haha," I giggled. "I\'ll be taking these as my payment anyways!"

There was a large pile of Venomous Wyvern Scales, the King\'s entire body was also mine, their bones, hide, horns, fangs, eyeballs, tongue, venom organs, claws, tail, there were also the golden tusked boars hide, bones, and their super tough golden tusks.

"These are all precious materials for my own Alchemy, they\'re probably worth a lot, so consider this my payment," I winked at my friends. "I am not being selfless or something, just being fair if possible."

"Hah... Okay, well, if you insist..." Aquarina sighed. "What are you using those materials for, anyways? Something cool?"

"I might use some of them for what I am planning on creating later. A pair of special gloves of sorts..." I said. "They\'ll help me regulate my weight, conjure more complex magic without delay, and enhance my physical strength too."

"Can gloves do so much?" Zack wondered, feeling rather taken aback.

"Well, I\'ll try to make them do all of that at least!" I smiled.

"It\'s not like Sylphy can\'t do any of that amazing stuff, Zack, your armor and my dress, she

made those too! They\'re amazing!" Mist said.

"Right... I guess you\'re not wrong, she could do anything," Zack nodded, laughing a bit.

I spent the rest of the day enjoying a relaxing evening with my friends and Aquarina.

We had dinner with my entire family right after that, enjoying the atmosphere with the adults

as well.

They were rather surprised we ended doing a lot today, despite being on "vacations".

"You kids sure love doing all kinds of things, despite being on vacations-" uncle Arafunn sighed. "You have to learn how to relax and do nothing for once!"

"You say that as if it\'s easy, if I am not tired I usually don\'t feel like just resting anymore, uncle..." I sighed.

"Well said! Don\'t let your lazy uncle get to your head, Sylphy. You have the mentality of a hard worker like your mother!" my mom was quite proud of me. "I taught her pretty well, didn\'t

I?"

"Don\'t take all the credit mom, dad\'s also a hard worker!" I pointed at dad, who was eating a

huge sandwich.

"Hmm? What?" he was completely out of the conversation, so he was confused when I called

him.

Looking at his clumsy face, everyone ended laughing cheerfully.

"Yeah I guess, he\'s sure a hard worker! Don\'t look down on the Hero of Blazing Blade!

Hahah!" laughed Nepheline.

"If he ever had any talent was being stubborn and hard working," Shade nodded.

"That is certainly true, a bit obnoxious back then!" laughed my uncle. "You would have loved

seeing him when your father was on his younger years, quite the brat!"

"Hey, cut it out you guys! Are you praising me or just talking bad about me?!" my father felt a bit offended. "You really are irremediable, haha! Don\'t provoke me, or I\'m going to start talking about that one time... Yeah, like that one-time Shade was caught-"

"S-Shut up! Don\'t talk about that in front of my daughter!" Shade screamed.

"Naaah, I\'m gonna do it!" laughed my dad, messing with Shade\'s hair.

"Ugh, cut it out! Don\'t!" Shade cried.

They were really like us at the end, just a bunch of friends.
