When he saw the pair of wings on his back, Kazien never thought he could have wings like the goddess Nirfelia.
Was this real?
He tried to flap his wings. Slowly, he began to fly in the air.
Wow! I'm flying! I can fly!
Kazien was so excited with the wings the Goddess gave him. However...
"I am honored by these beautiful wings you gave me. But I'm sorry, I have to refuse these wings! Because I just want to be an ordinary human!"
"You still need that power because your opponent in the future will be a god! In front of him, your immortality is useless!"
Instantly, his expression changed. Kazien never imagined that in the future he would fight a god. He was also worried about everything that would happen to the world he currently lived in.
"I will accept it. But, can these wings be hidden?"
"Just imagine them disappearing from your back."
Kazien immediately imagined the wings disappearing from his back.
Flap! The wings closed and then retracted into his body.
Even though my back was torn because of these wings. But, why don't I feel any pain at all, huh?
"You don't need to know how it works! Isn't your wish to hide your wings already fulfilled?"
Kazien nodded enthusiastically.
"I know what you want. But, you can't meet them! Just hand this over to him!"
Goddess Nirfelia handed him a letter.
"Is this a letter for Alvin?" he asked to confirm.
"Yes, you're right! The letter is for Alvin! Store all the photos and the letter in your storage dimension. Once you return to your world, give that letter to Alvin!"
"Then, what about all these photos?"
"There are two photos each! You hand one over to them. And for the other, it's up to you what you want to use it for!"
Kazien knew very well what he would do with the rest of the photos. Including the photo of Alvin and his parents.
"I know! But I'm sorry, I'm a Goddess! It's impossible for me to marry you!"
Kazien, who had forgotten that the Goddess could read his thoughts, could only scratch his cheek while holding back his embarrassment in front of Goddess Nirfelia.
"But in the future, I will give you a surprise!"
"Surprise?" Kazien asked curiously.
"Yes, a surprise! But I will keep it a secret from you. Wait patiently until that time comes!"
Although very curious, Kazien could only look forward to the surprise he would receive from the goddess in the future.
"It's time for you to return to your world! They were so worried about you!"
"Thank you so much for everything, goddess Nirfelia!"
"You don't need to worry! But in the future, you will definitely be hindered by some greedy people when carrying out your mission to destroy all those dungeons! But I'm sure you can overcome it! See you later, Kazien."
Suddenly, there was a hole beneath him. He fell through the clouds in the sky at a very high speed.
"What does that mean? I don't understand!"
All eyes were on him who had just woken up while screaming.
"Ah… I'm back again! What the heck is-"
Alvin immediately hugged him tightly while crying in relief when he saw Kazien who had woken up from his sleep.
"Uwaaaaa!!! You're finally awake! Uwaaaaa!!!!! Sob… Sob… Uwaaaa!!!"
"Alvin? Why are you crying?" he asked confused.
Kazien looked around. He was surprised by the presence of his entire family around him.
"What happened? Why are there so many people here?"
Duchess Larina approached him and hugged Kazien along with Alvin.
"Thank Goodness you're awake! I thought we were going to lose you."
Kazien was becoming increasingly confused by everything that was happening.
"Lose me? What do you mean? Mother, weren't we having dinner?"
"You've been unconscious for over 6 months. That's why we thought you'd never wake up again."
Kazien gasped after hearing his mother's answer.
6 months? No! No! This must be a lie! I spoke with the goddess Nirfelia for no more than 30 minutes.
Are they playing a prank on me? Yet, they're crying like this. Even my brothers and sisters look sad.
"More than 6 months? Mother isn't lying to me, right? Tell me this is all a lie!"
"That's the truth! You've been unconscious for that long!"
"T-Then, what about their wedding and our engagement?"
"Selena, William, Virena, and Davin are already married! And Raliana and you are officially engaged! Just look at the ring finger on your left hand!"
Kazien raised his left hand and saw a beautiful ring on his ring finger.
This is real! I'm engaged! But why is it on my left ring finger?
"Did I get engaged to Alvin while I was unconscious?"
"Yes, you're right! We can't postpone it any longer because there are so many guests coming to your event!"
"But why is this ring on my left ring finger?"
"Alvin put the ring on your ring finger!"
Because it was Alvin's wish, Kazien didn't want to discuss it anymore.
"Mom, Alvin, please let me go for a moment."
As soon as the hug was released, Kazien opened his bedroom window and looked up at the sky.
"It's all because of you that I can't put our engagement ring on Alvin's finger. And I also didn't see my siblings' happiness when they got married! No wonder you said earlier that they were very worried about me!"
"NOW, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY, GODDESS NIRFELIA? ANSWER ME.....!!!!!!"
"Hahh... Hahh... Hahh... Hahh..."
He had expressed his annoyance and frustration through his screams. His voice was almost lost due to the very loud scream. Everyone in his room was shocked and realized one thing.
"My dear, did you meet goddess Nirfelia?"
"Yes, she's the one who called me there! But I didn't think that it had been more than 6 months here. Even though I was there for less than 30 minutes."
Kazien sighed.
Alvin and everyone who heard him could only remain silent after hearing his answer.
Then Kazien took out a photo and a letter from his storage dimension.
"Goddess Nirfelia gave me this! She said to leave this photo and letter to you!" he said while handing the family photo and a letter to Alvin.
When Alvin saw it, he cried even more hysterically while caressing the photo he was holding.
"I miss them. Sob…"
"Read the letter! And just put your family photo down for now."
Alvin opened the still-sealed letter and read it.
"Alvin, are you okay? Goddess Nirfelia allowed us to write this letter to you. Goddess Nirfelia said you have become a man and married a very handsome human man. At first I was shocked. But I feel relieved that you are very happy with him. Your father was the same. He was very shocked but he was relieved when he found out that you were safe and found your own happiness. Actually, there are many things we want to say to you. But this letter is too limited to say everything. What is certain is that your father and I bless your relationship. May you both live happily ever after. We love you very much, Alvin."
Alvin stood up and immediately ran to Kazien. He cried hysterically while hugging him tightly.
"Thank you! Uwaaaaa!!!!"
Kazien returned the hug and stroked his back gently.
Those who were curious about what was on the bed immediately came closer and looked at it. Duke Elgard and his entire family were very amazed by the photo they were currently seeing.
"Are these Alvin's parents?"
"Yes, father! Those are his parents. Their names are written underneath."
"Atlasion Dass'el Latreess and Sylvina Dass'ell Latreess. No wonder Alvin is handsome. His mother's face is this beautiful."
"But unfortunately, Alvin's parents have passed away. Alvin, please give the letter to my father so they can read it!"
After receiving the letter, Duke Elgard read it. His expression changed after knowing what was written there. Likewise, the others, they immediately showed the same expression after reading the letter.
Whether to feel happy, relieved or sad. They didn't know how to express it.
"Now, Alvin is the only high elf left in this world!
"What did you say?"
