Ares: Never Grow Up
Finale

"Well good! We're ready!"

POV: Author

The dark day has come, the sun has now been lost swallowed by the Earth. Inside this forest that was so dark, the glitter of light that was arranged straight as if giving a hint to be able to pass through.

The citizens who were suddenly told to come here by Riot and Ken felt strange, but they did not reject Riot's request because Riot was one of the people who fought together with them.

As it gets closer to the party location, the entire community is surprised by the beauty of the place designed by Ares, Safa and Vani this time.

"Woah .. is this .. real?" Aunt Aster looked left and right. There are so many fireflies here, they are so many and beautiful, like stars floating along with the citizens.

Srrekk.

Ares came down from the tree skating and stood in front of the citizens.

"Thank you for coming to the simple party we prepared this time! Uh, I mean-the event that Safa prepared this time! We just act as people who help.

Since today is a party, I hope you all can enjoy today no matter what. And this is also a form of separation from me and my colleagues, because we have to leave Ansorteri City immediately.

Even so, I will now not feel sorry even if I have to leave you so soon, because I know that you are strong! Together you are invincible!

Rebuild the city as it was! No, better than ever! I have prepared the spare material that I leave to Aunt Aster, and you guys just process it how.

Again, my colleagues and I apologize for our shortcomings. We're resigning ourselves." Ares lowered his face, then immediately walked away from before the citizens.

"No! Thank you for helping us reclaim Ansorteri City!"

"Thank you for risking your life with us!"

"You will never forget! It will never!"

"In the next book of history! I'll make sure your names are there!"

Ares smiled wryly at the cheers from the citizens. Just as Ares was about to leave, his eyes saw Riot and Ken waiting in the darkness.

"If the citizens of my town are still alive, I'm sure they'll say the same thing." Riot spoke while hugging Ares on his shoulders. Ares returned Riot's embrace and then rubbed his back.

"Are we going today?" ask Ken suddenly.

"Um yeah, we're leaving now." Vani suddenly comes and infiltrates the conversation. Ken and I looked at each other and nodded. We decided to leave this crowded party, and started packing things at home later.

"Wait on! There's one more thing I want to tell you all!"

Safa's loud voice attracted everyone's attention at this party. I stared at Safa, and the boy looked at me.

"I ... have decided to go with them! I know you've entrusted me with everything in this city! But, I feel that I am no match as a leader! I'm not fit to sit in a chair and document on a table! I'm really sorry, but I'm sure that I want to come with Ares!" Everyone who was there fell silent, then took turns staring at Safa and Ares.

POV: Ares

Their views were obviously initially confused, but Aunt Aster immediately melted the atmosphere by going head-to-head with Safa.

"Do what you want. Nor can we hold birds with healthy wings. This city must be painful for you, right? Go to where you'll fly free.

Go to a place where you can express yourself. A place that makes you feel what home is. A place that can breathe air without burden.

You fit them, Safa. A hero will find another hero to fight with, a sharp sword will find a strong shield to equip it.

Your destiny is bigger than it seems.

"Thank you, Auntie."

POV: Author

Safa and Ares, along with Ken, Vani, and Riot. Leaving the party location and walking straight through the forest. There is a regret that is impossible to overcome.

And there is a hope that can never be expressed forever. The path of destiny is narrower than the path, and wider than the oceans of the world. There will be no directions at every step.

But there will always be a heart that guides you. The days when man can die at any time, the days when strength is everything.

The sun that is still and moving on its axis, and the Earth that begins to heal itself from the tiredness of the burden that stepped on it.

A new leaf has now begun, the journey to be taken is still very far away.

***

For a long time or now, I have never regretted what I did. I'm just so happy to know that now, I'm not alone anymore.

_Ares.

***

This is a house without a home for me, a family without blood relations that is so pleasant. Sweat and life, tears and laughter. I want to feel this for a little longer!

_Ril Valvera.

***

Ever since I was an indecisive person, I only pretended to be strong in front of my friends so that I could be trusted. But now ... I want to really be a strict person!

_enriched Emora.

***

Thanks to someone, I now know that crying is not always a bad thing, being spoiled is not always a bad thing. If the world can become normal again .. I want to be the first person to hold your hand at that time!

_Stevani Regan.

***

A person so full of compassion and calculation. People who rely on logic and feelings. Does anyone other than him have this ability? I don't know, as soon as I saw it I knew.

He was the ideal leader.

_Safa Arnold's.

***

Struggle on the decisive day. Seconds of sweat drops and lives that almost drifted away.

The virus is mutating and will soon strengthen.

S1-finish.

Starting tomorrow S2-start.
