The next week had finally come, and it was time to say goodbye for the time being and return to the academy for a brief week before moving to the elven continent. Things were all prepared and ready, the airship was opening its gates behind us, and our families giving us their goodbyes.
I saw my friends cry and hug their parents and siblings, as my own siblings hugged me tightly, and my parents did so as well. They were all still worried about everything, even when I was recognized as a Legendary Hero by the Duke and even given noble titles out of nowhere, which I didn't really care about anyways.
The thing I truly cared for was here, my family. And I did this for them more than any title or fame, just to secure their safety and happiness.
"Big bro, make sure to come back!" Anna cried. "Sniff, beat all the baddies!" She was all snotty.
"Y-Yeah!" Allan nodded adorably. "Beat Fafnir and the demons…!"
