“Thank you so much!!!”

“You’ve done so much for us; we have done not a single thing back…”

“This is a miracle… a miracle!”

“Is this a dream? Is this real life?”

“So this is how trees look like… So beautiful…”

“The air feels so clean out of nowhere… What is this?”

“Mama, this fruit is sweet and juicy!”

I felt slightly overwhelmed by everyone being so thankful. I did this just because I wanted, without any actual reason at all. I was just carelessly doing something without minding. They don’t have to be so exaggerated for it…

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Don’t worry about it so much about it, guys. I did this out of goodwill because of Brunhild, she’s an amazing magician. She even created the seeds using her magic. See? Magic’s pretty neat.” I said.

“Brunhild did this?”

“She really did?”

“So magic can even do such a thing?”

“Brunhild, is this true?” Her father asked.

“Well, yeah… I made the smaller tree seeds but it is nothing too much…” Said Brunhild.

“You made the smaller trees that gave us such tasty fruit?!”

“Amazing…”

“Brunhild is our savior now, isn’t she?”

“I am sorry for doubting you…”

“Ah, I guess I also owe an apology…”

“I am really shocked…”

A lot of people that looked down at her seemed to begin to apologize, even former bullies that mocked her magic talent and her physical weakness. Brunhild felt overwhelmed by their words, but couldn’t help but smile as she seemed to be having a good time.

Sol rested over the bark of a tree while looking at everything, his sword had even shaped into a shovel before. It seems to be able to shapeshift into many farming tools, in specific. Although I don’t know why ones, but just any that is seen as one, most likely.

“That was amazing, Sol. Elfina would be proud of what you’ve done…” Fiere said.

“Ah, yeah…?” Wondered Sol. “Well, I am sure that goof would be happy.”

“Hm, we can’t stay here for too long though, we should eat something and quickly go off. I would love to take a nap, but for now we need to find Elfina at all costs.” Said Luminous.

“Yeah, we are closer to our target, only a few kilometers from here.” I said.

Like that, we decided to join into a big feast where almost the entire population of Giants joined into the fray. There was freshly harvested fruits, veggies, tubers, and roasted meat. Some people began cooking with the new ingredients, making some delicious stew with potatoes, carrots, onions, and meat cut into pieces, and I also cooked my own food, making some bone broth using the bones of the Bone Dragons, which was actually very delicious and tasted like a very strong meat flavor. I added other ingredients and began serving it to everyone. I had to cook it over a giant pot though, for people of all sizes to enjoy it.

“Oh, this food is so filled with flavors…”

“Delicious…”

“Those hard rock-like potatoes can be boiled with water? They become so soft…”

“Boiled stuff… I’ve forgotten how nice and soft they taste.”

“This tomato salad is amazing, try it! It is so filled with juice and the smell is great!”

“Cabbage and tomatoes make a good combination…”

“So this is a… banana? It has a weird shape… But it is so soft and sweet!”

“I love orange juice…”

“Look, try this out, it’s called watermelon!”

“Uwah, so juicy! So much water… I feel refreshed.”

I saw Halberd talking with his daughter while we enjoyed the feast. It seemed that the conversation was rather important and serious, so I overheard it with everyone while we looked in silence.

“So because of that I really need to go with them… This entire time I’ve been barely figuring out magic by myself but I need someone to teach me and show me magic so I can use it.” Said Brunhild. “Without other people that can use magic at my side, I cannot really develop my ability…”

“Hmmm…” Halberd looked back at his daughter, noticing the conviction in her eyes. “I don’t know if I can even convince you to not go. You seem dead-set on that.”

“I want to go… That genie is the culprit behind everything, we have to put a stop to him so our desert can go back to its normality.” Said Brunhild.

“I just am very worried. I don’t want you to… die.” Sighed Halberd. “Do you promise me you’ll survive and come back home once everything’s over?”

Brunhild looked back at her father’s single eye, as she smiled back and nodded.

“Of course. I am not planning in running away. I’ll come back as soon as I can, and tell you all the adventures I had, father. I’ll show you how much my magic as advanced and… I’ll teach magic here too. I think that even between the other children, there might be many that are talented…” Said Brunhild.

“I see… Sorry for neglecting magic and your talents for so long, Brunhild. In your eyes, I can already see how wrong I truly was. Can you forgive your father for being so foolish?” Wondered Halberd, looking back at his daughter with shame clear on his eyes.

“Yeah, it is fine. Don’t worry about it.” She said with a smile. “I am happy as things are, and I am happy to have you with me as well. I think we can keep things up and eventually, we’ll reach somewhere where there’s a better future. I want to use my magic and my talents for that.”

“Brunhild…” Halberd seemed taken aback by his daughter’s words, they sounded very mature and adult-like.

“I guess you’ve already grown up, huh?” He said while smiling, head patting her. “You’re already a full-fledged adult. I was the only fool here trying to think you were still a little girl… My little girl already became a woman with her own dreams. I have no rights to stop you from following them.”

“Father… Thank you.” Brunhild hugged Halberd back.

Man, this really hits me deep. I miss my kids…
