"Alright, good luck. Actually, I knew you would refuse. I just asked as a formality. Given the current situation, there’s nothing we can do. Anyway, thank you for your contributions. The Abyss will remember your achievements. Hahahahaha..."

"It’s over, he definitely can’t beat that commander."
"What now? Gray can’t win, is it a tragic ending?"
Morca cautiously suggested, "Maybe we can start a sequel. You take his son away and teach him magic so he can avenge his father. Although it’s a bit clichéd, it’s not bad."
"No—! We want a happy ending!"
