Nathaniel was gone, leaving the world with a smile on his face.
It seemed like he departed without any regrets.

“Eli, takeaway. I don’t want to be in Laubabwe anymore,” she said as she weakly collapsed into Elliot’s arms, her voice choked with emotion.
Elliot kissed her forehead tenderly, comforting her softly, “It’s all over. He got what he wanted, and you gave him what he needed. It’s the best ending he could hope for.”

Clear was secured in a cooler box, intended for further examination of its composition upon returning to Froania.
Sheena had shed the heavy wedding gown and now donned a warm fur coat, but she was still wearing the flat shoes Nathaniel had personally chosen for her.
She appeared languid, and her eyes lacked luster, staring at the vast expanse of white clouds outside the plane.
Elliot held her, understanding that she had not recovered from the church’s
events.
Lionel and Lucy sat with them in the first–class cabin.
In contrast to the quiet Elliot and Sheena, the two of them seemed livelier.
“Lionel, all those soldiers called you Captain. You’re so amazing!” Lucy exclaimed, right in front of Elliot and Sheena, making Lionel blush.
“On this plane, the most formidable person is Ms. Sheena, followed by Mr. Jenkins, and I don’t even cclose to them.”
“Is that so?”
Lucy turned to Sheena, flashing a sweet and friendly smile, then asked Lionel, By the way, Lionel, you never toldyour full name. What’s your last name?”

“Mr. Jenkins?”
Elliot gave a slight smile, his tone steady as he explained, “I plan to officially list you in the family records and register you under my father’s nas an adopted son. In the future, you won’t just be my subordinate but also my brother, Lionel Jenkins.”
Lionel’s eyes reddened, tears swirling in his eyes.
He was shocked and moved by the gesture.
“Mr. Jenkins, you’re really nice to me…”
