At the End of the Journey
Fuhuhu! Nothing is impossible for Cristelle de Montua!
You just saw it yourself, didn't you?
Yeah. You were amazing.
Ahem. Now then, Captain.
I said I'd tell you after the Journey what you'd promised me, didn't I?
We had only just met, and I may have gotten a little carried away at the time...
I was curious to hear her answer, but I already knew enough without it.
If revenge had been all she lived for, what would she fill her life with once it was over?
By now, she must have found her answer.
The one who stands at the end of the Journey, having endured countless moments of pain and suffering.
There will be more hardships ahead.
But I believe in her.
She'll surpass me one day...
And become the greatest Savior of them all.
Her light was so bright... I closed my eyes.
You are the one I want to come back to.
Even if I get my revenge, this nightmare may never end...
But if I wake up and find you there, I know I'll be all right.
But... Huh?
...Congratulations, Savior.
With this, you have passed the final trial of the Journey.
Shall we head back now?
They are throwing a huge celebration in your honor for completing the Journey.
Lisa? Wasn't there someone else here with us?
...There's been no one else but us here from the start.
I see...
I heard you've been working a lot of overtime lately. Perhaps you dozed off and dreamed the whole thing...
Indeed... Someone even had me reading cookbooks while I worked late... Fufu.
It could not have been a dream. How cruel of you to leave without even hearing my answer.
Savior?
I'll go on ahead. Something urgent has come up.
You told me to use you for my revenge, only to disappear...
At this rate, revenge will have to wait. I must find you first.
You're the one I have to come back to.
Wait for me. We will meet again...
And so, another new starlight ignited.
Its radiant flame was etched into the Archive—a beacon to pierce the endless dark of the cosmos.
Observation complete.
