Epilogue
The royal palace of the Kingdom of Rastel had been reduced to rubble, and more than half of it had been destroyed by an attack by an ancient weapon.
Lexia and the others gathered in a room of the palace that was miraculously undamaged, surrounding King Farouk as he lay on a bed.
“Selene.”
“Yes.”
At Luna’s signal, Selene took out a small bottle.
It was the medicine Douglas had.
Selene, with a nervous expression on her face, made Farouk, who was sleeping, drink the medicine.
Farouk’s complexion recovered quickly.
His eyes, which had been closed, opened softly.
“Father…!”
“….! You are…!”
Farouk’s eyes opened wide.
The eyes that had once been clouded by poison were now clear blue, reflecting the image of Selene with a look of surprise.
Selene smiled and held back tears.
“I am your daughter, Diana. I have returned…!”
“Oh, ooh…!”
Farouk sat up and took Selene’s hand.
“Oh, Diana! You’re alive… you’re alive! I always believed that… I was looking forward to the day we could meet like this…!”
“Yes… I’ve been waiting for the day I could be reunited with you, Father…!”
Their voices trembled as they hugged each other tightly as if to confirm each other’s existence.
The two of them, separated by an evil force, were finally reunited after a long time.
Farouk looked at his beloved daughter for a while, but then his eyes suddenly widened.
“That’s right, the key… the key to the ancient weapon…! I’m sure my brother took it…”
Selene smiled as she gently held Farouk’s distraught hand.
“The ancient weapon is destroyed. It will never be taken again.”
“W-what? You destroyed the most powerful ancient weapon? H-how on earth did you do that…!”
“It was thanks to them.”
Meeting Selene’s gaze, Lexia smiled elegantly and pinched her skirt.
“It is a pleasure to meet you for the first time, Farouk-sama. I am Lexia, the First Princess of the Kingdom of Arcelia.”
“What? You’re Princess Lexia of the Kingdom of Arcelia?”
“Yes, please remember me from now on. And these are my companions, Luna and Tito.”
“I am Luna.”
“Nice to meet you, I’m Tito!”
“Y-You mean to say that these girls destroyed the ancient weapon…?”
Selene smiles at Farouk, who is surprised.
“Yes. They stopped Douglas’ plan and even stopped the ancient weapon from going out of control… They are the saviors who saved the Kingdom of Rastel… no, the world.”
Farouk’s throat trembles with emotion.
“Oh, my goodness… no matter how many words I use, they won’t be enough to express my gratitude.”
“But we couldn’t have stopped the ancient weapon on our own! Selene──No, Princess Diana was really strong and cool!”
Lexia closed one eye, and Selene blushed, embarrassed.
Farouk’s eyes narrowed at the sight of his daughter, but then he suddenly looked at Luna with a curious expression.
“By the way… you look very much like my daughter.”
“Yes, I was surprised too.”
Farouk spoke softly as she looked at Luna, who nodded.
“And that voice… I feel like I met you in my foggy state. My eyes were blinded by poison, so I couldn’t see clearly, but I could feel the true kindness and compassion in the voice you spoke to me with, and before my life ended, I wanted to entrust you with the key…”
“Your Majesty Farouk…”
Luna’s voice trailed off a bit, and she put her hand on her chest.
“I am proud that I was able to help this country in my small way and that I was able to fight alongside the brave Princess Diana.”
“Ah, thank you…”
Farouk bowed deeply.
Then he quietly looked up at Selene.
“…So this was all Douglas’ plan, wasn’t it?”
“Yes.”
“I see… I was getting weaker by the day for the last six months, and when I finally realized what he was up to, it was too late. I was locked in the basement, unable to do anything… It’s a shame.”
Selene looked at the small bottle.
“This is the antidote. Douglas entrusted it to me. He said he did something truly foolish. He will pay for this crime with his life…”
“Hmm. Maybe you could call it the ghost of Nayuta… He must have become obsessed with greed after learning the secret of the ancient weapon. The crime of endangering the world is a serious one and must be dealt with severely… In any case, it was too much power for a human to possess. I am truly grateful to you for destroying the ancient weapon.”
Farouk bowed deeply once more.
Selene patted him gently on the back, and she stood up.
“Well then, Father, I will see Lexia-san and the others off.”
“Yes. I’m sorry, but I’m not quite back to my old self yet, so I’ll see them off here. Please have a good journey. If you have any problems, I’m always here to help.”
“Thank you very much!”
Lexia and the others said goodbye to King Farouk and left the room.
＊＊＊
Outside the palace, the subjects and soldiers had gathered.
“Diana-sama, how is His Majesty Farouk?”
Selene smiled at the worried people gathered around her.
“There is no need to worry. His Majesty recovered safely.”
“Oh, thank goodness…!”
Selene gently comforted the people who were on the verge of tears.
“The castle was destroyed, and the damage to the royal capital is incalculable, but… I promise to rebuild it as soon as possible, together with my father. Please lend us your strength. Let’s make our country even better with our own hands.”
“Yes…!”
The people of the castle nodded with beaming faces.
When Douglas’ plot was exposed, and the people learned that Selene was the real Princess Diana, they were extremely surprised, but they soon welcomed her warmly thanks to her sincere personality.
Luna watched Selene and folded her arms in admiration.
“As expected from a real princess, she has a lot of class and dignity.”
“Ara, Luna, you looked great as a princess too!”
“Yes, it was really good!”
“Ugh, stop it, I’ve had enough of living in the royal palace.”
Luna sighed, but then her eyes narrowed when she saw Selene smiling at the people in the castle.
“Selene would make a great princess. The future of the Kingdom of Rastel looks bright.”
The four of them went to the castle gate.
There were many people gathered in front of the gate.
“Ah, they’re coming out!”
“Thank you for protecting the world, the Exciting and Sparkling Circus Troupe!”
People from all over the capital cheered with smiles on their faces.
Among them was the figure of a Storm Bear with children on his back.
“Guo, Guo!”
“I’m so glad you’re okay!”
Lexia ran over, and the children and people around her cheered.
“I couldn’t run away because I sprained my ankle, but this monster saved me, he saved my life!”
“He was so fast and fluffy!”
“And he’s so strong!”
“Fufu, you protected the people of the city. You are so great!”
“Guo, Guo.”
Storm Bear let out a throaty growl as Lexia appeared.
The maids surrounded Luna, reluctant to see her go.
“Ugh, Luna-sama, you’re leaving us already…?”
“We will miss you, but please take care of yourself…”
“We will always pray for your happiness, Luna-sama!”
Luna smiled, her eyes misting over as the maids teared up.
“It was a short time, but thanks to you, it was a lot of fun. Just as you dedicated yourselves to me, please support Selene this time.”
“””””Yes!”””””
The maids’ cheeks flushed at Luna’s smile, and they all cheered together.
“Thank you, Lexia-san, Luna-san and Tito-san.”
Selene held their hands.
“Thanks to you, I was able to return to the castle and protect the Kingdom of Rastel and the world. No matter how many words I use, they won’t be enough. I won’t forget this debt of gratitude.”
Lexia and the others smiled at the blue eyes filled with tears.
“No, it was Selene who did all the hard work!”
“Selene-san’s magic sword was really cool!”
“I’m looking forward to the country Selene will create from now on.”
“Ahhh…!”
They said goodbye and started to leave, waving their hands.
“Let’s have tea as princesses one day!”
“Yes, I’m looking forward to it!”
“Luna-sama──! Take care──!”
“Please come and visit again──!”
“Guoooo──!”
Bright goodbyes echoed in the blue sky.
Lexia and the others, who had once again saved the world, left the “Kingdom of Eternity,” the Kingdom of Rastel, with a loud cheer.
＊＊＊
After leaving the royal capital, Lexia took a long stretch.
“Mmm, it was a lot of fun, even though a lot of things happened!”
“But it was also a hard time for us this time.”
Luna sighed, and Tito’s eyes sparkled.
“Luna-san’s dress was really something! I want to see it again!”
“That’s right, when I get home, I’ll lend you my dress! Let’s go to the party together!”
“No, I’ll never wear a dress again.”
“What? You looked really good in it, it’s a waste!”
Lexia pouted but then suddenly remembered something and picked up her bag.
“Oh, that reminds me, Luna, I have something for you! It’s a necklace with a skull on it!
“But I don’t want it?”
“What, it’s really cool! Look, it glows in rainbow colors! I was going to give it to Yuuya-sama, but since you couldn’t go sightseeing in the royal capital, I’ll give it to you instead!”
“I said I don’t want it! And don’t buy such suspicious things in the first place!”
Tito watched the exchange between the two and laughed out loud.
“But since we started traveling, we’ve got a lot more souvenirs from different countries!”
“That’s right! We’ve been to so many places all over the world, from the great powers of the north to the islands of the south!”
“But we were also involved in many extraordinary events…”
Luna shook her head in annoyance and then suddenly looked at Lexia.
“Still, your Breath of Light… I heard from Magic Saint-sama that it would eventually awaken, but I never thought that it would be able to stop a rampaging ancient weapon… You’re becoming more and more extraordinary.”
“Is that so?”
Tito also nodded at Lexia, who bowed her head.
“Come to think of it, Lexia-san’s power is always released when she tries to help someone or protect a country or the world.”
“That’s true when you put it that way. Maybe there’s something fundamental in Lexia’s desire to help people in need that unleashes her special power called Breath of Light.”
“Hmm, I don’t really understand, but that means…”
Lexia looked confused, but then her face lit up.
“It means I’m getting closer to Yuuya-sama!”
“How can that be?”
“Because Yuuya-sama gets stronger and stronger to help someone, right? I even started this journey to become a little more like this Yuuya-sama who is my fiancé! What would I do if Yuuya-sama said to me, ‘Lexia-san, you’re amazing, and we’re a good match, so let’s get married right now!'”
“That’s not going to happen! Besides, you don’t even know how to use Breath of Light properly!”
“That’s not true! Watch me, I can activate it right now! Eeii!”
Lexia raised her hands to the sky with excitement──
“Nothing happened.”
“Why!”
“Hah, good grief.”
Tito laughed as she watched Lexia stamp her feet.
“But it’s a very Lexia-san-like power!”
“…I guess so.”
Luna smiled.
“Well, I think you’ve had enough. This time we’re going back to the Kingdom of Arcelia.”
Luna exhaled and looked at Lexia.
But Lexia pointed down the road with a triumphant air.
“Well, where shall we go next?”
“W-wait, Lexia, you still want to continue this journey?”
Lexia blinked her eyes in confusion.
“What? But there are still so many people in the world who are in trouble, you know? This journey will not be over until we have helped everyone!”
“If you keep saying things like that, you’ll never get home! Oh, wait, Lexia, at least send a letter to ────!”
“H-huh! Is there a hole in the bag again? Things are falling out! Ahhhh, wait, wait!”
Lexia ran down the street with a spring in her step while Luna and Tito ran after her in a panic.
Unaware that their exploits have been broadcast to the royal council and that they have become heroes, the girls take off again into the open, their cheerful voices echoing in the distance.
