Chapter 138 : Warriors Reward

Scene 1: Tour Around the Fortress

The scene opens inside the Flying Fortress. The Omni Voyagers eagerly show Victoria around, pointing out different rooms and sections of their massive home. Himothy leads the way, opening doors dramatically, while Draco explains the training arena and MaxedInfinite shows the lounge area.

Himothy: "And here's the main deck! The best place to see the stars at night."

Draco: "This is the training arena. It's where we spar and improve our abilities."

MaxedInfinite: "And over here is the lounge! It's got the softest couches in existence."

Ikari: (Leading Victoria to a private room) "And this… this is your room."

Victoria: (Smiling warmly) "It's perfect. Thank you all so much!"

Scene 2: Ikari's Confession

As the tour concludes, Ikari and Victoria stand on the main deck, looking over the horizon. Ikari takes a deep breath and turns to face her.

Ikari: "Victoria, I've been thinking a lot lately… Would you be my girlfriend?"

Victoria: Without hesitation* "Yes! Of course, I will!" (She hugs him tightly.)

Himothy: (Peeking from behind a column) "Lover boy strikes again!"

Everyone laughs as Ikari turns slightly red, but he just smiles, happier than ever.

Scene 3: The Mayor's Arrival

A loud knock echoes through the fortress. Him opens the door, revealing the Mayor of Celestara ; Mrs Eliora Dutchess standing with a dignified posture, holding a small ornate box.

Mayor: "Omni Voyagers, Ikari… Celestara is forever grateful for your deeds. As a token of our appreciation, we present these medals of honor."

The group stands proudly as the Mayor hands out the medals.*

MaxedInfinite: "We appreciate this, but what about Aleph Tohu?"

Mayor: "We tried to find him, but he's nowhere in Celestara."

MaxedInfinite:"Then we'll take his medal to him."

Mayor: "Very well. Please send him our regards."

Scene 4: Journey to Vinland

The Omni Voyagers, their girlfriends, Ikari, and Victoria step into a glowing portal, emerging in the serene farmlands of Vinland. The sun is setting, casting a golden hue over the land. Aleph Tohu and Zoe, in the midst of tending to crops, turn to see their friends arriving.

Aleph Tohu: (Smiling) "Well, well, look who decided to visit."

Zoe: "It's been too long!" (She hugs Mira and Eliana and then Wednesday and Demitra.)

Victoria: (Extending a hand to Aleph Tohu) "I'm Victoria, Ikari's girlfriend. It's nice to meet you."

Aleph Tohu: (Shaking her hand) "Pleasure's mine. Welcome to Vinland."

The group gathers in Aleph Tohu and Zoe's small but cozy cottage, reminiscing about past adventures, laughing, and sharing stories for four hours.

Scene 5: Departure and Return to Eclipsed Eternity

As night falls, the Omni Voyagers realize it's time to leave. They step outside, looking at the peaceful farmlands once more.

Draco: "As much as I love this place, twelve people can't fit in one cottage."

Himothy: (Chuckling) "Yeah, I'd rather not sleep standing."

Ikari: (Dapping Aleph Tohu up) "We'll see you again soon."

Aleph Tohu : "You'd better."

Zoe waves as they step into the portal, vanishing back to Eclipsed Eternity.

Scene 6: Nighttime at the Flying Fortress

The group returns home, exhausted but content. They all head to their rooms, settling in for the night.*

Ikari lies in bed, smiling as he thinks about Victoria moving in.

Victoria, in her new room, hugs her pillow with a happy sigh.

Meanwhile, back in Vinland, Aleph Tohu and Zoe cuddle under the stars, embracing softly as they drift to sleep.

Narrator:

Ah, the Flying Fortress—a home unlike any other, floating above the boundless sky, filled with warriors, legends, and now… one more heart.

Victoria's arrival marks more than just another addition to the Omni Voyagers. It signifies growth, change, and the strengthening of bonds that have already withstood the trials of battle and time. And so, the grand tour begins—Himothy, ever the showman, swinging doors open like a stage performer; Draco, the strategist, explaining the significance of every training ground; and MaxedInfinite, prioritizing comfort above all else.

And then, there's Ikari—leading Victoria to a door of her own. A space, a sanctuary, a promise that she is now part of something much greater.

But, of course, emotions can't remain unspoken forever. Beneath the endless expanse of stars, Ikari does what his heart has long urged him to do. A confession, a question, and an answer that leaves no room for doubt.

"Yes! Of course, I will!"

Love, it seems, continues to bloom even amidst warriors. And, as expected, the ever-watchful Himothy ensures no moment goes without commentary.

Ah, but duty calls, even in times of peace. The Mayor of Celestara arrives, offering words of gratitude and medals of honor. Recognition for their deeds, but also a reminder of one absence—Aleph Tohu. A friend, a warrior, missing from the moment of celebration.

And so, without hesitation, the Omni Voyagers do what they do best—seek out their own.

Through the portal they go, stepping into Vinland—a land of peace, far removed from the chaos of battle. There, beneath the golden hues of sunset, a reunion unfolds. Aleph Tohu and Zoe welcome their friends, the air filling with laughter, stories, and memories that stretch deep into the night.

But time, ever fleeting, reminds them of their journey's demands. As they bid farewell to Vinland, stepping once more into the portal, an unspoken promise lingers—this is not goodbye, only see you soon.

And so, the day comes to an end. In the Flying Fortress, weary warriors find rest. Ikari, smiling to himself, drifts into sleep with thoughts of Victoria beside him. She, in her new room, does the same—embracing the warmth of belonging.

Meanwhile, in Vinland, beneath a sky filled with silent stars, Aleph Tohu and Zoe rest in each other's arms, the tranquility of their world undisturbed.

A day well spent. A chapter well written.

But make no mistake…

The story is far from over.
