Startled by the sight of smoke billowing from the house, Axel, Luna, and Ellie quickly exchanged worried glances. Without hesitation, they rushed towards the house, their hearts pounding with a mix of fear and urgency. As they approached, they saw the once serene scene transformed into chaos. Flames licked the walls, devouring the wooden structure and sending plumes of smoke into the sky. The man and his daughter who had been playing outside now stood frozen in shock, their expressions a mix of fear and despair. "We have to save them!" Luna exclaimed, her voice filled with determination. Axel nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings for any signs of danger. With the help of his water magic, he created a protective barrier around himself and his companions, shielding them from the scorching heat and smoke. They rushed into the burning house, their senses heightened as they navigated through the thick smoke. The crackling of flames and the smell of charred wood filled the air, maki

Their journey continued, their hearts burdened with the weight of the lives they had taken, but also fueled by the hope of a brighter future. Each step they took was a testament to their unwavering determination and the bond that bound them together as they faced the challenges that lay ahead. In a world where darkness threatened to overshadow the light, they remained a beacon of hope, a testament to the power of courage, friendship, and the unwavering spirit of a young man who had been thrust into a destiny far greater than he had ever imagined. And with each victory, they moved closer to reshaping the fate of the water country and finding their place in a world that desperately needed heroes. Together, they would forge a path towards a future where strength and compassion coexisted, where the balance between power and responsibility was upheld, and where the legacy of destruction carried by Axel would be transformed into a force for good. Their journey was far from over, and as the

Luna blushed, her eyes gleaming with happiness, while Ellie nodded with a smile, her dragon form towering over the crowd. With the newfound alliance between the people and their party, they established a system of defense and training. The citizens actively participated, honing their skills and contributing to the protection of the city. Silvanna continued to lead the troops, guiding them with her expertise and unwavering commitment. Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. The city thrived under the collective effort of its inhabitants. The scars of the past began to fade, replaced by a vibrant sense of community and a shared vision for the future. As time went on, they faced new challenges and adventures, but they always carried the spirit of camaraderie and determination instilled within them during their time in the capital. Together, they grew stronger, overcoming obstacles and creating a legacy that would be remembered for generations to come. In the end, it wasn't just

"I suppose you could say that," Axel responded cryptically, avoiding divulging the full extent of the sword's importance. Silvanna nodded, sensing Axel's reticence. She respected his privacy, recognizing that some secrets were best kept concealed. With a newfound appreciation for Axel's capabilities, she gestured toward the rest of the training grounds. "Your skills are remarkable, Axel. Let's continue observing the training," Silvanna suggested, shifting the focus away from Axel's sword. Axel agreed, and the two of them resumed their positions as silent observers. Their gaze settled upon the soldiers, who continued their relentless pursuit of improvement. The atmosphere brimmed with determination, a testament to the unwavering spirit of the kingdom's defenders. As Axel watched the soldiers honing their skills, he couldn't help but wonder what lay ahead for them all. The impending demon invasion loomed ever closer, and the training they were undertaking would be put to the ultimate

Reluctantly, the goddess acquiesced, realizing the gravity of the situation. "Fine, fine. I'll put my bath obsession aside for now. But you owe me a luxurious bath once this is all over, Axel." Axel nodded, a small smile tugging at his lips. "I promise, once the battle is won, you can have as many baths as you desire." With their preparations complete, Axel and his team stood united, ready to face Danus and his forces head-on. The fate of the capital hung in the balance, and the outcome would determine the course of the war. As the dawn approached, Axel's resolve burned brighter than ever. With the demon's information guiding their actions, they would strike swiftly, aiming to cripple the enemy's reconnaissance and send a resounding message to their adversaries. As Axel approached the second point, the tension in the air grew thicker. He could sense the presence of the demons, their malevolence seeping through the surrounding forest. With each step, his determination hardened, his
