The members of the Mirror Clan already knew their fate and accepted it peacefully.

"Mira."

"It's Guinevere, you're here again."

After Ainsel left the Mirror Clan, Mira took on the responsibility of leading the Mirror Clan, and everyone trusted this friend who had been with them for many years.

Although the Mirror Clan does not require any additional management and everyone can live in peace, there always needs to be someone responsible for external affairs.

Mira, who has the best relationship with Ainsel, took on this responsibility and has won everyone's recognition for her abilities in the past few years.

However, before long, the carefree girl became silent and taciturn. Although she was still talkative and cheerful, for some reason, she felt something was different.

Guinevere could sense it to some extent.

"Well, how are you doing lately? Is there anything that's not convenient in your life? Just tell me, I can help you a little bit."

"Hmm... Guinevere is still the same as before."

Mira smiled and said, "But I don't think we really need it. Come on, let's not talk about this anymore. Everyone is waiting for you."

"Well, I see."

A smile appeared on Guinevere's face.

The Mirror Clan does not have many entertainment activities. Compared with the Wind Clan, who highly imitated humans to build dazzling buildings, the Earth Clan, who was famous for forging iron, and the Earth Clan, who learned to make various dishes from humans, they prefer to stay together quietly.

Read, draw, write, or do something else together.

Fairies are not creative. This is true in the Fairy Kingdom, but it may be wrong in the Mirror Clan.

Perhaps realizing this limit, the Mirror Clan, which never competed with other clans for resources, began to indulge in "creating" their own art and beauty.

He tried to create his own creations like humans, which resulted in many paintings that are particularly popular in the fairy kingdom.

Everyone was happy about this and then continued to work on new creations.

Be it a story, a painting, a song or a piece of music.

The carefree Mirror Clan accumulated little by little until the end.

During this century, Guinevere witnessed the creation of many delightful works, some of which were given to friends, and some of which were brought to Gloucester for auction after changing hands several times.

But today, everyone is a little different.

"...Hey, what are you going to do with your flowers from now on?"

"Yeah, don't worry. I've been nurturing it for a long time. I think it can thrive even without anyone taking care of it."

"You are worthy of me... It doesn't matter to me anyway. I already have flowers, so I planted them in the flowerbed. The weather in Lancaster is not too dry. I can't say how strong they will grow in the future, but at least they can last a little longer after I'm gone."

"Ivan...Mary...what's wrong with you? What are you talking about?"

"Yeah, nothing much. We were just talking about what happens after we die."

The peaceful and tranquil fairies of the Mirror Clan responded with a smile.

"After death?"

"Well, after all, it's very troublesome to pack up a lot of things."

The fairies smiled and said, "Unfinished work, not enough company for everyone."

They looked at Her Majesty the Queen, who really couldn't understand what they were talking about, and then they smiled slightly.

"Well, I almost forgot. Guinevere is a different kind of fairy from us."

“So it’s normal not to know about this.”

"Guinevere, in fact, our Mirror Clan doesn't have many days left to live. Soon, Lancaster will be destroyed and everyone will die without a single one left. The Mirror Clan will also come to an end."

The fairies of the Mirror Clan spoke as if it had nothing to do with them.

"Wha, what?"

When Guinevere heard the news, he couldn't believe what was wrong with his ears.

"Stop, stop joking like that!"

However, this is a prophecy made by the Mirror Clans after all, which means it is true.

Guinevere, who didn't want his friends to leave, couldn't help but say, "Why did Lancaster get destroyed? Was it a disaster?! Or a war?! No matter what, I can't let this happen———"

"Guinevere is still the same as before."

The fairies of the Mirror Clan simply smiled at each other.

"This is fate... In other words, it is something that cannot be changed."

"There is no such thing as something that cannot be changed! If you knew the truth and were willing to tell me, all this could have been prevented..."

"…It's no use, Guinevere."

Everyone from the Mirror Clan shook their heads slightly.

"Destiny is a very strange thing. Some things are destined to happen. This is a fact that cannot be changed or altered. It's like this."

The Mirror Clan also understood that telling Guinevere all these nonsense about fate would not convince him, so they simply gave up on explaining it and just said firmly that this was everyone's wish.

Their leader, Ainsel, has left, and many subsequent events are no longer observed.

Perhaps for them, this hardship also means relief.

But Guinevere is different. He at least has a brighter and more glorious future.

All of this is ultimately unavoidable, and all of this can never be achieved.

If this is the case, why not let yourself be the last push to help your friend?

The Mirror Clans who knew the future looked at Guinevere gently, and then said.

"We don't need your help, our friend."

"Everything we have is finally coming to an end."

"But someone will need your help, or salvation, when disaster strikes."

"…Please don't mind her mistakes. All these sins are not her fault."

"So please save her, both for you and for us."

"..."

Guinevere remained silent. He didn't know whether he should agree to this or not. However, instead of trying to redeem anyone, he would rather hold on to the women in front of him, rather than letting his friends of hundreds of years disappear like the mud in the dragon skeleton of Albion.

But everyone in the Mirror Clan knew that Guinevere had taken his words to heart.

...If it were him, he would definitely do it.

They are not worried about this.

Rather, such an opportunity is hard to come by and perhaps it only comes once in a lifetime.

Therefore, they are not important. The fairies who have already accepted the demise of the Mirror Clan have already accepted this fact when they were born.

Instead of making any more useless attempts to retain her, they might as well do their best to help Her Majesty the Queen who has been with them for a hundred years, and repay the kindness of a hundred years of friendship.

Although Guinevere himself would certainly not be happy to do such a thing.

But please forgive them for such a willful request for the first and last time.

The fairies of the Mirror Clan all prayed silently at the same time.

Guinevere, the beautiful and kind Queen of Spring.

May you be blessed with happiness.

…………

Guinevere eventually returned to Camelot in a depressed mood.

He never mentioned anything about the Mirror Clan to anyone again.

Should I choose to respect my friend's choices and opinions, or break this fate for my own sake?

Guinevere was extremely conflicted.

Morgan soon realized that something was wrong with her husband's condition, but she didn't say much, just snuggled up to him silently.

No extra words are needed, just use actions to prove that you will always be by his side.

So don't worry, my husband.

Morgan murmured in his heart.

Morgan's existence is like melting ice and snow, and the thawed spring water silently soaks the broken heart of the boy who suddenly realizes that he will eventually lose something important.

Episode 9: Farewell, Mirror Clan

"...Listen to me, Lancelot."

In the room of the Cathedral, after returning to Salisbury this time, the Dragon Fairy received Aurora's message before he had time to see Percival.

When she arrived at the cathedral, the beautiful and kind fairy said this to her.

"Ainsel is a very dangerous fairy."

"They only make useless predictions, and no one has discovered their true nature."

"What do they want to do after they incite everyone by doing something like that—"

"It's really unimaginable."

The dragon fairy's pretty face beneath the mask gradually changed color.

"Even though he is a member of one of the six major clans, he keeps mumbling rebellious words that no one can understand."

"As a member of the six major clans, he is indifferent to the existence of the Child of Prophecy."

"Not only that, this was a perfect opportunity to repay His Majesty Morgan and express gratitude, but Ainsel just ran away with the Child of Prophecy -"

"Wouldn't that make them the same clan as the Rain Clan, a clan that shelters outsiders (the fairies of Paradise)?"

"It's already been 2,000 years in the Queen's calendar, and the Great Disaster could come at any time, but such a prophecy was still made—"

"Isn't this the most direct rebellion against Her Majesty Queen Morgan? Just thinking about this makes my wings almost covered with haze—"

While frowning in distress, Aurora's gaze naturally fell on the dragon fairy.

"You can understand my feelings, right? ■■■?"

Ignoring the gift from His Majesty Morgan, Aurora uttered the blurred true name of the Dragon Fairy. She took a step forward and gently took the hand of the Fairy Knight Lancelot, with a beautiful smile on her face.

"Because you are my prince, right?"

"——No matter what time it is, you will definitely bring me what I want most, right?"

How to choose?

Things like this don't require much thought.

but--

Because it's Aurora, this is Aurora's request.

Like self-deception and self-torture.

Although he was clearly resisting this action that he couldn't tell right from wrong, he still nodded slightly to respond to her expectations.

——She didn't have any evil thoughts. After all, Aurora was not a good or evil person.

What the outside world knows about fairies, gentle and loving fairies who wish for fairies and humans to coexist peacefully - this is, after all, just a disguised shell.

But it's just something fake.

After all, she just loves herself.

Love yourself for who you are, completely glamorous and beautiful.

Love yourself for being supported by everyone.

She just cherishes this environment that loves her and this world that puts her first.
