The world had moved on, as it always does, with kingdoms flourishing, alliances solidifying, and peace reigning across the Clover Kingdom and beyond.

  Five years had passed since Alex's return, and though his existence was known only to a select few, his influence subtly shaped the kingdom in ways even he hadn't imagined.

  For the citizens, their hero was a distant, almost mythical figure. But for the few who knew, Alex was a cherished presence—a legend among them, living in quiet seclusion.

  In Hage Vilge, at the edge of the kingdom, Alex had settled into a modest cottage surrounded by sprawling fields and the occasional sound of children's ughter.

  Life had slowed down, and he had embraced it willingly, sav the simplicity of each sunrise and the sound of rustling leaves.

  The vilgers knew him as nothing more than a humble, kindly man, a watchful figure who always seemed to have a way of making things easier without drawing attention.

  The memories of Alex had been long-hidden, buried deep in their hearts by his hax. But one by origgered by powerful emotions or subtle hints, the memories began to resurface.

  Mereoleona, Yuno, Fuegoleon, and Julius were the first to remember, their minds flooded with images of the battles they'd shared, the moments of ughter, and the quiet wisdom he had imparted.

  Each recolle sparked others: memories spread like fire to those closest to him, lighting up each person's heart with a blend of joy and mencholy.

  Noelle remembered him during a quiet moment alohe strength of her memories overwhelming her until she whispered his name.

  Mimosa felt the hax slip when Alex gifted her the same flowers Alex had once gifted her on their first date.

  Charlotte, Sol, and Lily were , each memory a precious gift returned after years of longing.

  And though they were overjoyed, they agreed to keep his presence a secret, h his wish to live a peaceful life away from the responsibilities of his old role...

  Despite the secrecy of his presehe bonds he had fed were unbreakable.

  Noelle, Mimosa, Charlotte, Sol, Lily Aquaria, and even Acier Silva and Lolopechka shared a deep e with him.

  Yet, there was a secret they all bore—a gift and a curse he had bestowed upon them.

  On a warm summer afternoon, Alex sat in the shade of an old oak tree, watg his children py. His eyes softened with affe as he g his partners, who hadn't aged a day in years.

  Eternal youth ed around them like an invisible shroud, a gift Alex had given them out of love and the desire to preserve their strength ay forever.

  Alex also gave this gift to Rebecd his pet Nebra Silva.

  Noelle approached him, her long silver hair shimmering in the sunlight, her eyes as fierd vibrant as ever.

  "Are you sure about this, Alex?" She asked, her voice low but filled with curiosity. "The curse of eternal youth… I've accepted it, but sometimes I wonder if it's truly a blessing."

  Alex reached out, gently tug a stray strand of hair behind her ear.

  "I know it's not an easy gift," He admitted, his voice carrying the weight of his turies-old wisdom. "But it ehat when I'm gone on my adventure, you'll all remain strong, unged forever... I do not want you to feel burdened or ashamed of yourselves iure."

  Mimosa, with her warm, ever-cheerful smile, joihem.

  "And when that time es," She added, "We'll be here, watg over our children and the future of the Clover Kingdom."

  Nearby, Charlotte and Sol traiogether, their movements as graceful and powerful as they had been in their days as Magiights.

  Acier Silva and Lolopechka stood nearby, discussing the advas in the kingdom and the well-being of their loved ones. Each of them had embraced their gift, carrying it with dignity and purpose...

  One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon and the sky filled with stars,

  Alex gathered his family around a warm campfire. The children, tired from their day's adventures, y scattered around, drifting to sleep as the fmes flickered and cast golden shadows across the gathering.

  Lily Aquaria leaned in, her voice a whisper against the crag fire. "You've been speaking of this ' adventure' for a while now. Will you ever tell us what it is?"

  Alex gazed into the fire, the light dang in his eyes.

  "The universe is vast," He said softly, a smile pying on his lips. "Our world is just one of many, and I've always known there's more out there—more to explore, more mysteries to uncover. When our children are old enough to take care of themselves, I'll leave. I'll jouro the universe, to pces far beyond our world."

  Noelle's eyes widened, a spark of longing and sorrow mingling within them. "But will you return?"

  Alex reached out, taking her hand in his and giving it a gentle squeeze.

  "Of course," He promised. "I e and go as I please. Even if I'm expl other worlds, my heart will always be tied to all of you."

  Mereoleona, who had joihe gathering in her usual fiery spirit, smirked.

  "Just make sure y bae stories worthy of telling," She said, her voice full of pride. "We'll hold down the fort here."

  Fuegoleon, standing nearby, nodded. "The kingdom will be in good hands. You've done enough, Asta. It's time you had your own adventure."

  Julius Novao, who had e to visit uhe cover of darkness, added, "You've sacrificed so much for us. It's only right that you seek your own path now, knowing you leave behind a world of peace."

  The following m, Alex stood on a gentle hill overlooking the vilge. The m sun paihe sky in hues of gold and crimson, and his children ran around him, chasing butterflies and ughing in the m light. His heart swelled with pride as he watched them, knowing that they would grow up strong and loved, carrying on his legacy.

  "Wherever you go," Noelle murmured, her voice catg, "We'll be waiting."

  "And we'll be here," Charlotte added, her gaze fierce yet filled with longing. "This is our home, and it will always be here for you."

  Alex nodded, his heart heavy yet full of hope. "Thank you..."

  As the years passed, Alex watched his children grow, eae being a refle of the strengths of their mothers. He traihem, ughed with them, and shared quiet moments of wisdom.

  The day would e when he'd say his farewells and embark on his adventure, but until then, he cherished every moment.

  Then one day, he finally left Hage Vilge.

  The universe awaited, full of mysteries and challenges!

  As he stepped through the shimmering portal he had created, the sky bzed with the colors of a new dawn...

  His legend lived on, woven into the fabric of their world!!
