"Don't mention this!"
Natsu huddled down, his head in his hands. It seemed his charming and shrewd young wife was quite impressive. In many ways.
"Don't tease him too much. Marriage is... complicated."
"Coming from Lao, this is a very heavy thing to say. It's not a joke at all. Anyway, you still didn't grow any hair in the end..."
"That's because I shave my head! Often! Often! You're still as annoying as ever!"
Ross said indignantly. Meredith ignored him, her expression becoming subtle.
"As for Ben...his taste in scarves seems to have deteriorated."
"...It can't be helped. Margaret always happily knits me lots of scarves."
Bandu said this, turning his face away. The pink scarf with heart patterns around his neck fluttered in the wind.
Needless to say, the person who can enter the maze and meet Bandu is already obvious.
Meanwhile, the Schnee clan continues to hide in a secret village in the forest near the Snow Plains. Besides the Schnee clan, many dragons loyal to the Schnee clan also live there.
"Speaking of which, Xiao Liu, it's not too late now. You should cancel the cockroach test."
"No, I won't, I won't! If I do that, I'll be left alone on the sidelines again! At least I need those kids to keep me company!"
"No need, isn't Xiao Qi here? She's the one taking care of you, right?"
"That was just a side note. Her main job is as a restaurant owner. And it's outside the sea of trees! She'll definitely say she's busy and ignore me from now on! I'll be so lonely!"
Lutilis cried out in grievance. However, from the moment she proposed and implemented the test of the emergence of tens of millions of cockroaches, an unbridgeable gap had formed between her and Meredy and the others.
Yet, in response to her, Chiara simply smiled and said, "I can't do anything about you," completely dismissing her concern. She even took the initiative to care for Lutilis, clearly demonstrating her exceptional generosity. The Bunnymen were indeed resilient.
Ignoring Lutilis's embarrassed reaction, Meredith carefully pulled out a photo from her bosom. It was a photo of the seven of them taken on a hill before they began constructing the Great Labyrinth. From that hill, she could see the cape where her beloved sister lay in state.
That was Oscar's suggestion. Over the past seven years, he had sent Meredith many photos, and this was her favorite, a treasure.
"Hey, Xiao Ao, thank you for giving me this."
In the end, Meredith did not change the way she addressed Oscar, which showed that she had made up her mind and gave up her future as an ordinary girl.
"Isn't this a photo from seven years ago? You've thanked me many times."
"I want to say thank you no matter how many times! This is truly the most amazing photo. It still shows me as a beautiful girl!"
"Your appearance after leaving your body is the same as it was then. I don't know why it happened like that."
"These are two completely different things!"
Oscar's eyes were a little sad, but Meredith pretended not to notice and showed a more energetic and cheerful smile.
Suddenly, a familiar smell appeared in the sky.
“…The time has come.”
Seeing the apostle coming to monitor her, Meredith said this. She seemed to have no worries.
Behind each of the seven people there is a small magic circle for transfer. As long as they enter it, they can directly reach their respective residences in the big maze.
After the transfer, the magic circle will automatically disappear, and they will completely separate from each other.
"Well, everyone, it's time to say goodbye! Don't miss Meredith so much that you sneak out of the Great Labyrinth!"
Meredith said this with a hint of sarcasm. Precisely because they would never see each other again in this life, Meredith kept a cheerful smile until the very end.
Everything that needs to be said has already been said in these seven years.
The six of them gazed at Meredith, etched her image deeply into their hearts. Longing and remembrance welled up in their hearts, their eyes filled with love.
The first one to turn around was Natsu. Before entering the teleportation magic circle, he turned back.
"Traveling with you is the greatest honor of my life. Thank you."
"Nai-chan...I'm the one who wants to thank you. Thank you for fighting with me."
Natsu smiled at Meredith, as if saying goodbye to a friend at dusk. Then, he disappeared into the magic circle.
The next person to speak was Lutilis.
"Miledi, you gave me a dream, a beautiful dream. I am grateful to you. I believe this dream will continue into the future."
"Yes, I believe it too. Goodbye, Xiao Liu."
The last smile left by the Queen of the Sea of Trees was leisurely and powerful, like a huge tree.
After completing its mission, the leaf-colored transfer magic circle automatically vanished. After the magic circle vanished, it was Ross who spoke next. His tone was gentle and firm.
"Berta's decision to choose you was undoubtedly the right one."
“L-Law…!”
"That's all I have to say. Keep your head high, Meredith Lessin."
The strongest knight's expression was incredibly gentle, almost to the point of being heartbreaking.
After watching Royce leave, Bandu also turned around. Suddenly, he stopped, glanced at Oscar for some reason, then looked at Meredith, sighed deeply, and then strode towards Meredith.
"Eh?" The golem's smiling mask showed confusion. Then, he was hit on the forehead with a snap of the finger.
"It hurts! What are you doing!?"
"This is a punishment for not being frank enough."
After saying this, Bandu turned around as if nothing had happened, then turned back slightly to deliver his final words.
"You're more attractive when you're a little annoying. Don't forget that."
"What do you mean!?"
The smiling mask looked indignant, as if it couldn't accept this way of saying goodbye. However, Bandu smiled heartily and walked away.
"Haha, that's really Ben's style...Okay, Xiao Mi."
"Yeah. Mei'er."
"Your bust size will still be tragic even when you grow up."
"That's not important at all, right?!"
"You're going to tease me before you leave!" Meredith said indignantly. But Mel suddenly pulled her into a hug.
"It's so wonderful to meet you. I wish I could continue to be with you, even forever."
"...Me too, Mei-nee."
The two hugged, as if to confirm each other's existence, and then let go.
"Remember, you are never alone. Even if I leave first, I will still miss you forever."
"Hey, I know."
The two smiled at each other. Even though Meredith's face was a mask of smile, it was genuine. A tender affection overflowed between them, like sisters. Mei retreated back to her own territory, never taking her eyes off Meredith.
"It seems she's worried about us."
Oscar, who was the last one standing, muttered with a wry smile.
"Xiao Ao... I'm sorry, I made a lot of willful requests of you."
Oscar shook his head silently. Meredith turned her back to him. This was the first time she had done so on her own initiative.
She walked straight towards the transfer magic circle.
"Thank you. I can't express my gratitude to you in words. Without you, Xiao Ao, I wouldn't be who I am today. You are my most important spiritual support."
Mireidi knew that she could not face his feelings and the promise between them, so she had to at least express her gratitude clearly without a trace of hypocrisy.
Before moving the magic circle, Miledy stopped and felt Oscar's gaze from behind her.
She could feel his gaze lingering on her back for only a moment before Oscar also turned and walked towards the transfer magic circle.
Has he had enough of me? I really wanted to say goodbye with a smile. Oh, here I am again, and it just doesn't go well—Milaldi thought, stroking the mask with her metal fingers.
"Even if an eternity passes—"
"what?"
"Even if only my soul remains—"
"..."
"I'll definitely pick you up. Definitely."
Fortunately, no gasps were heard. I should really be thankful for this golium body.
"For the past seven years, I've been searching for ways to prevent you from being lonely. I even tried to find the answer in legendary stories. Although I ultimately couldn't find an alternative, I've seen many stories where two people can be together in the end, even if they end up in different worlds or even reincarnate."
The magic in the legendary stories really exists.
So Oscar Orcus decided to believe. To believe and make a promise.
"This time, it's my turn to find you. Whether it's at the bottom of hell or at the end of the world, I will find you."
Meredith wanted to turn around and reach out to him. But if she did, she wouldn't be able to completely abandon herself as an ordinary girl. She wouldn't be able to endure the long journey that lay ahead. So she had to hold back.
Moreover, Meredith knew very well that Oscar Orcus always respected Meredith Lessen's feelings.
"It's my happiness to have met you. I don't intend to give up this happiness, so I won't say goodbye."
"A-Ao-chan..."
"Yeah. Just call me Xiao Ao."
It was the same at this time. He was so completely convinced of Meredith's intentions as the leader of the Liberator.
His affirmation always inspires her fighting spirit and gives her more strength.
"Goodbye, Meredith. Be careful on your journey."
"Well, bye, Ao! I'm leaving!"
So, the two parted ways.
Each of them stored their feelings deep in their hearts like a treasure. Both of them had a tearful smile on their faces and straightened their backs.
There was no looking back until the end.
Afterwards, the world, having eliminated the so-called public enemy rebels, enjoyed a brief period of peace.
Ten years passed, then a hundred years passed.
As people's memories of the turbulent times faded, such rumors began to spread in the world for no reason.
It is said that there are seven great labyrinths in this world.
Those who successfully conquer the maze will receive a huge reward.
These seven great labyrinths were created by the seven sinners who rebelled against the world.
Unconsciously, and without knowing who started it, people began to call these seven labyrinths after the names of these seven people. Even if the passage of time makes people forget the existence of the labyrinths, these names will inevitably remain in the land, the country, and the people.
It seems that in every era there is a group of people who inherit their legacy, work hard to protect free will, and prevent the world from forgetting about them.
Prequel Zero 6 Epilogue
Thank you all for reading this volume 6 of "The World's Strongest Zero Made by an Ordinary Occupation".
I am the original author Bai Miliang.
This spin-off has finally reached its final volume. The story of Miley Cyrus and the others has come to a close, and thinking about it brings me to a lot of emotions.
What do you think, readers? This work describes the life of the liberators, the past and personalities of the seven masters of the maze, and the relationship with the present. Do you like it?
As for me, the author, writing was incredibly tiring, and I even cried out in agony several times, but I still had a blast. I'm sure of that.
There's so much I want to say that this volume has finally reached over 500 pages. Even so, I still feel like I haven't finished it all, which shows how much I enjoyed writing it...
So I had no choice but to release the parts that I couldn't fully write as special gifts in each store. The content includes the whereabouts of the characters in the book, and the planning meeting for the large maze test content.
I believe that readers will be very interested in this kind of content, so please do take a look. However, this isn't something that should be written in the afterword, so I'm sorry... (looks away).
No matter what, the successful completion of the Zero series is thanks to the support of all readers.
I am also grateful to the wonderful editor and proofreaders who must have been astonished to learn how many pages this book had.
The main storyline has reached its final climax. The "story of the rebels" that began at zero has finally continued to the "story of the beginning," and Meredith's lonely journey will finally reach its true end.
Dear readers, please witness her career together in this biography.
