After giving Suwi the Class S and Class SS Crimson items, the holographic display of the creation system appeared. "760 gratitude points acquired." "Love meter level up, Suwi is now at level 25." After getting the additional gratitude points, Melon told us that it would be better if Suwi obtained elemental spirits. According to her, there are magic items that possess elemental guardians which can be utilized in battle. Melon showed me five rings that could be given to Suwi. "The water, wind, lightning, earth, and light elemental guardians. You can acquire each of them for 100k gratitude points." "These will help Suwi in combat. However, each of them only lasts for ten minutes," Melon added. I shook my head, realizing I was going to spend a huge amount of gratitude points on Suwi again. "She's so high-maintenance, it feels like I'm spoiling a high-maintenance girlfriend," I muttered. Still, I figured that our situation was still too dangerous, even as we traveled throu

Just a few minutes passed while Nathaniel was in the control room. Suddenly, Melon felt Suwi leave the ship. "Huh?" "Why? What's wrong, Melon?" "Suwi left the ship. Looks like she didn't listen to what you said earlier," Melon said. Nathaniel stood up from his seat in shock, wanting to follow her immediately. "What? She's so stubborn! I told her she couldn't go there." Before Nathaniel could take a step away, Melon stopped him, forbidding him from leaving since no one else could pilot the ship. "Have you lost your mind? Are you really going to leave a ship flying through the air at 300 kilometers per hour? If you leave right now, you'll never make it back to Galica," Melon added. "But I can't just abandon Suwi! You know she's wanted, and Eskapa will capture her," Nathaniel explained frantically. Melon sighed, understanding Nathaniel's worry. However, turning the ship around just to pick up Suwi wasn't an option—lowering the ship's altitude would only make them vulnerabl

Selena's declaration that Ataparag was gone hit Nathaniel like a bucket of ice water, leaving him completely stunned."Wait, what are you talking about? Even if you say Ataparag was just the result of emotions and energy you took from others, it’s clearly still you, and I know you remember everything! Are you really just going to forget Queen Sei after she cared for you for ten years?"Selena didn't answer right away and let out a heavy sigh. In her mind, she hesitated to simply abandon Serania."I understand what you're saying, and I don't deny that when I was Ataparag, I was loyal to the Queen. But I can't return to Galica because I have a duty as the ruler of this place," Selena said.Nathaniel refused to accept her answer, knowing Ataparag would never turn her back on Sei so easily. He reminded her how much Ataparag loved Sei and that now, with Galica in danger, helping them was the right thing to do.Selena slammed her hand onto the armrest of her throne, unleashing a surge of da

After returning to Galica, Nathaniel and the others were shocked to realize that Suwi had not been brought back with them. Koko immediately defended herself, explaining that the spell only applied to those in Nathaniel’s immediate vicinity. If Suwi was far away from him, she couldn't possibly be transported along with them. Melon clarified that Suwi had left to follow Eskapa and speak with XXV, making it impossible for her to return with the group. "Then what do we do now? We need to bring Suwi back before something bad happens to her," Nathaniel said worriedly. "Wait, hold on! Why are you yelling at me? It’s not my fault she walked away from you," Koko retorted. "Can't you do something? Can't you go over there and fetch her?" Nathaniel asked. Koko sighed, reminding him that she wasn't a genie bound to grant every single wish Nathaniel asked for. "Still, I understand that she's important to you, so I'll grant her protection," Koko offered. She promised that Suwi would not die

After reuniting and catching up, they immediately prepared to head back to the rest of the soldiers and meet with the town mayor again. As a General, it was also Ataparag's duty to solve the town's problems to the best of her ability, so she couldn't just leave all the relief work to Nathaniel. While they were walking, Nyabu asked why Ataparag's appearance had changed and how she had actually managed to return to Galica. Her return remained a mystery to the team, especially knowing she had faced the Hube. "Ah... well... I have to admit I struggled fighting the Hube. Unfortunately, I was defeated by them, and out of desperation, I was forced to break the ring the Queen gave me," Ataparag confessed. She admitted that in her desperate bid to survive, she broke her promise to the Queen—something she deeply regretted. However, reverting back to her demon beast form allowed her to defeat the Black Scorpion. Once the ring was destroyed, she could no longer return to her human form, mak
