"They're taking too long," Rei said with a look of anxiety and impatience.
Roseline patted him on the shoulder to calm him down. "Relax. Evalyn and the others will be back soon."
Rei took a deep breath and gave a slight nod.
They waited another five minutes, and finally, silhouettes appeared in the distance.
The figures stretched across the landscape. It was clearly the army that had just fought against Demon General Malgrion and his forces.
"They're back!" a soldier pointed toward the distance joyfully.
"Great!" another soldier cheered, and the others quickly followed suit.
Rei couldn't help but smile. For some reason, he felt incredibly proud. Evalyn was both his successor and his future descendant.
Seeing her succeed in defeating Malgrion filled him with joy.
As the army drew closer, Rei could finally spot Evalyn at the front.
He gave a satisfied nod, which Evalyn immediately returned with a smile.
