CHARLOTTE: The Injured White Peacock
Delayed Happiness

Back to this moment.

Ellena gaped in a few seconds. His eyes glared, he couldn't believe that Varl could stand here healthy. When she regained consciousness, Ellena began to scatter and immediately hugged Varl.

“Hey fool! Why are you here?” Ellena is happy not playing, she holds back her tears in her arms with Varl who is like her own sister.

No!

Varl immediately took off the hug and immediately touched Ellena's eel. “Why am I here? You're happy if I just die?” Varl's lips advanced forward a few inches, he pouted like a child with both hands crossed in front of his chest.

Returning to see Varl's grumpy face made Ellena sigh in relief. He did not care how angry the curly-haired man in front of him was. Ellena was too happy to hear Varl's nagging.

Ellena's smile expanded with her round, sparkling eyes. Seeing that, Varl covered the face of the otherworldly girl with his wide palm. “Don't look at me with that disgusting innocent face of yours!” Varl said condolences.

While others laughed seeing Ellena could smile again after a day of gloom and did not want to eat or do anything more fun than shut herself in the room.

“So, does anyone want to explain how Varl came back to life?” Ellena's eyes glanced at one by one, asking for answers to this unreasonable thing even though everything in Wolestria was something Ellena's mind could never take for granted.

However, all eyes were on Varl. The man also sighed. “Alright, I'll explain.”

The man explained in detail. All listened without exception even though some of them already knew what was really going on.

At the end of the story, Varl glances at Ciel. “Thank you and. sorry.”.

However, Ciel shook his head slowly. “No, Varl. You are more valuable than anything, even my own life. If I could choose any, I would sacrifice my life for you—”

“Stop that! Already, we just live what is,”, sergeant Varl because he does not want to hear sadness again.

“Good. If so, you should also live happily.” Ciel was coding his eyes. He pointed behind Varl with his manic.

While Varl did not understand, but he kept his head turned in curiosity as to what Ciel and the others saw. However, suddenly Varl's heart beat unbecoming because he saw a very beautiful angel standing not far from him.

“E-Elise?” Varl's face immediately turned a pseudo-red, while others immediately excited to find a romantic atmosphere like this.

“Let's do the life you have to live, Varl!” Ciel pushes Varl's body to erode the distance between the man and Elise.

Both of them had red cheeks while smiling shyly. Varl stared fixedly at Elise's face. This is his chance.

“Elise, I-I like you. Do you... want to be my wife and we live happily?” varl said he was trying to be male even though his heart was beating faster. He had been holding back his feelings all this time since first sight.

“Ya, I'm ready.” Without hesitation and the slightest pause Elise replied loudly.

A cheerful cheer was heard from behind Varl's body, all cheering happily at the expression of feelings that were instantly taken for granted.

“Ciye Varl!”

“Uhuy, we will soon have a little sister!”

“Yeay, Yuya will have a sister!”

“Your Majesty the Queen will be busy with the wedding party anyway.”

“Ah, what a beautiful youth.”

Many happy comments about the love of Varl and Elise that almost ended with a sad story. Then, Charlotte clapped her hands to steal the show.

“Everything heard, not only Varl will be happy, but all of you! Today is the coronation of the king for Steven and a tribute to those of you who have fought,” Charlotte said, a second later cheers were heard.

Everyone smiles happily. They finally got out of that place. Suddenly Ellena felt something very painful in her heart.

Cracks!

“Ellie, are you okay?” ask Ruby worriedly.

Ellena tried to catch her breath, the girl's lips quivering. It was so cold that it almost felt like it was dead.

“A-me... I have to s-soon back bu-not?” Ellena stopped her footsteps while continuing to catch her breath. “R-Ruby.. inter.. between me.”.

“Are you sure, Ellie?” Ruby was worried about Ellena. On the other hand, she wanted Ellena to survive the ice curse, but on the other hand, she also wanted Ellena to see the happiness of the others for the achievement of the success of this heavy mission.

Because if it wasn't for Ellena, this mission would never have been completed. Ruby who brought the girl also wanted Ellena to be given an award, but she also could not see Ellena getting sicker.

Ellena took out a red Ruby crystal from behind the collar of her school uniform. “Y-yeah.. i. I'm happy to see them, but I don't want them to see me in pain. If. if I were there and suddenly died, I could not see them grieving. So, t-please take it.. take me home, R-Ruby.”.

Ellena's eyes slowly dimmed. He can no longer.

“BEAUTY!” Ruby replied with a force. In fact, she couldn't even watch Ellena continue to be tormented like this. “Argh, troublesome!” ruby is upset that she feels that this is not the storyline she wants.

Then, Ruby cast a spell, “Activate portas!”

In an instant, a red-colored magic circle was formed and. cling!

They both landed directly in front of the Atma Tree, the tree of life that recorded everything in Wolestria. The tree was bigger than a mountain, very beautiful and admirable. The Atma tree stands in the middle of the land surrounded by lakes.

Ellena's eyes alone could not blink to see a giant tree standing firmly in front of her.

Glug.

“Ru-Ruby..” Ellena is still amazed by Wolestria which is fantastic and beyond reason. “This... in this is Mae The Lover of Trees devoting herself?”

“Yes, this is the original Mae Atma Tree. And there's an open portal. Enter with the crystal, the portal will not reject you as long as you carry the Ruby crystal. The portal will instantly take you to your home world, Ellie.” Ruby smiled gently even though her heart felt sad because Ellena had to return to her world.

“Thank you, Ruby. Thank you for taking me to this place so much fun. I will never forget you guys.” Ellena hugged Ruby's tiny body which floated with her little wings.

“But wait a minute.” Ruby let go of that hug. “Take one of the Atma Tree leaves so you can be removed from Wolestria.”

Hearing that, Ellena frowned. “What? So, will Wolestria forget me?”

“Sure.”

“Why?”

“Because, your presence that should not exist instead exists, it can damage the balance of this world.”

Hearing the shocking news that made Ellena's legs soften, she lowered her head so deeply. Ah, so this is how it ends?

“Alright,” replied Ellena lethargic. Although he regretted this, but he would never forget Wolestria and all that he had experienced. He would bury his story at any moment in his heart.

Then, Ellena pulled out one small leaf. After that, he put down Mae's friendship bracelet, which Zendaya had been wearing. He put it slowly. “Goodbye, Mae. May you rest there,” inner Ellena while praying for Mae's happiness.

Ellena let out a heavy sigh as she held back her choked sobbing. He turned to Ruby, his eyes wet but he did not want to part with grief. “I go first, Ruby.”

“Ya carefully. Although Wolestria forgot about you, but I will always remember you because Ruby crystals will always be with you, that makes our hearts connect, Ellie. Thank you for everything you have done for this world. L'm... Ruby The Fire pays great respect to you. Goodbye, Ellie. Hopefully we'll see each other again.”

Ellena nodded, then she walked over to the portal with that slightly reddish glow. However, suddenly the land that buried the roots of the Atma Tree swayed. There was a terrible earthquake here for a while.

Both of them drifted for a moment. Ellena's feet drowned for a moment until the Atma Tree gave off a greenish glow and the sound of a woman echoing. “Who dares to tease me?!”
