Zeeta and the Wizarding World
The Witch of Hope [END]

"What are you gonna do, Zee?" ask Klutzie. "What do you ask them? Don't cover it up again."

"will not. I just want time to say goodbye to my family and friends. However, I need the power of Yggdrasil. So, I'm gonna do it in the middle of the tree's comeback."

"All right."

"You know what to do to grow Yggdrasil, right?" Zeeta.

"Of course!" Hitomi sewot's. "Who do you think I am?! Xenna, Siren! Anyway you guys have to make sure until he's completely finished!"

The two Yggdrasil Spirits smiled. "Surely."

Later, Klutzie, Hitomi, and Zeeta, form a circle along with Siren and Xennaville. They all close their eyes to get focused. Moments later, a small ball of light-shaped Yggdrasil Spirit came from the side of Grandtopia so quickly. They mold themselves into their original form behind Zeeta. Slowly but surely, Xennaville and Siren came with him.

"Then I say goodbye."

......................

[POV News.]

Alter is me and I am him. We are both a Zeeta Aurora XXI, just from a different world, a different ending, and destroying the world in a different way.

This magic that will soon be active is my entire life force together where nature is gathered through where the Ancient Spirits have fused with me. The nickname "Yggdrasil Seed" is not a hyperbola. I, who have been the center of all the happenings of the magical world for thousands and thousands of years, will be the new foundation for a new world. However, in order to do so, the old world must be destroyed. That's where Klutzie and Hitomi next came in. They will guide each of their Yggdrasil Spirits to form their native life— Tree of Life. Similarly, the spirits of Yggdrasil are scattered in Grandtopia. Only then, I, who as the seed as well as the foundation, can be realized his desire.

My preparation to make this happen is not easy at all. There are many things I have to give up and get out of my grasp. Lives, dreams, desires, love, family, and friends. But I look back at myself again with another me. From me who has lost more than me, even his own magic, but he can still revive Yggdrasil, although the end is really bitter for him.

We are the same person, therefore Rune Kaunaz will be useless to guess the attack or see what future will wait for us both— only if we are close together within a certain distance.

The night before me and the others prepared everything needed for Ragnarok, though I was in the form of a normal human being under the night of the full moon, I saw clairvoyance. Not from Kaunaz, not from Chronos, not from my ancestors, but Luna, though she was unaware. Most likely this is due to the increasingly narrow time and how threatening this other figure of me is for the survival of our world.

I knew there would be destruction before creation. Creation of a new world that at that time I did not know whether I could make it or not. All I can do is believe in it, believe in it, and believe in others, just like those who believe in me.

Alter was truly me on a three hundred and sixty degree basis. Betrayed, betrayed, and continually betrayed. In the depths of his heart, he knew his friends had not betrayed him for real, but it was because of his inability that inevitably, they did.

If I experience what Alter went through in his world, then I am sure, the Zeeta I saw with Luna at the same time as Mr. Willmurd's funeral, was (what if) me in this time. I left behind everything that loved me, to destroy the magical world that kept us from taking what was precious to me, from the ancestors, and many other living things.

The war of magic we saw in that world, deliberately set in on myself, in order to kill me who had gained more power since resurrecting Yggdrasil. I'm sure I killed two other seeds for that purpose.

I am who I am, and I understand myself the most. Each one of us has chosen his way of life.

With the realization of this magic, I can take a break from what I have been through for seventeen years. Whether my partner knows it or not, my journey has been long.

Dragon Oboro, the Moon Mist Dragon, had a chance to talk to me before I did this magic of mine. I said without covering up what I was going to do with this world and he lent me his strength to....

......................

All those who were displaced in Aurora and behind the new Tofrahnottur were able to see how Vanadust and the surrounding overpasses were completely destroyed by the raging nature. Even the overpass behind Tofrahnottur is unable to withstand the vibrations of the Earth even though they are in the air. Those who are behind the protector, who can survive at that time, will be living witnesses of the absurdity that is happening.

Although the ground split everywhere, showing hot lava in it, they did not feel the heat so intense except for the temperature that forced them to sweat, other than due to fear.

Lava-lava that melted to burn down the forest, Grandtopia is no exception, increasingly redden the views of those who are still alive and continue to hope that everything can end quickly. The Elven Forest, thanks to Serina, Titania, and Ozy, can be protected even though all three are not fine.

No one is afraid or worried. No one does not think that this is the end of the world. No one would have guessed that suddenly all the destruction that happened stopped just like that without warning. But shortly after, the ground rumbled back, giving rise to a giant shoot that slowly crept up, rose, and continued to rise up into the sky. They all know what a— Tree of Life is.

All beings on Earth, whether able to save themselves from the ferocity of the destruction of nature, or those who take refuge behind Tofrahnottur, immediately turn a gloomy expression into a sumringah smile. Without exception. They saw for themselves how the bud quickly turned into a very large, tall tree, and mysteriously immediately brought calm to anyone who looked at it.

"Successful! Princess Zeeta has succeeded!"

The cheers of one of the Auroras echoed throughout the kingdom, bringing more and more fear into happiness.

"Hurray!"

"Thank God!"

The cries of simplicity spread everywhere, but they were shocked by the sudden destruction of Tofrahnottur. Then nature seems to repair itself by closing all the cracks and gaps that were created before. The rain slowly flushed down heavily, extinguishing the heat of the lava and lava. Despite the wetness, those who were happy, including the Elves and the Giants, did not stop calling for joyful cheers.

"Thank you, Zeeta!"

Some magic creatures called for their sincere feelings.

It is not just nature that is experiencing change. Some magical creatures, such as Dragons, also experience it. They slowly shrink to the size of a human, leaving horns, tails, or scales. That is proof that the world Zeeta wants to create is in the process of forming. The Phantasmals living behind the protection of the Zephyr survived, with no significant changes. Sea creatures like the mermaid are like that. They can still use their power to manipulate water.

"Mr Princess Zeeta...." Cynthia who was among the crowd of Aurora, smiled looking at Yggdrasil.

[In the meantime.].

The Crescent Void was gathering above one of the outer gate towers of the kingdom. Gerda and Danny's previous wounds slowly heal on their own, as long as Yggdrasil grows.

"The Princess will be back, won't she...?" Colette asked in a doubtful tone. He's not sure if it's right to ask this question right now.

"Of course!" snapping Azure and Mellynda together.

"The girl still has promises she hasn't kept!" connect Mellynda. "If he doesn't come back, I'll definitely—"

"Sorry about that, Melly."

A voice so recognizable and so missed its presence immediately forced those who heard it wide and instantly turned their heads. Like the two Yggdrasil Seeds before, the six people were forced to be shocked.

"Hey ... what the fuck is this, Zeeta?!" Azure immediately shed tears, understanding what was going on.

Gerda is similar. He's bluffing his teeth. "Liar...!" he clenched both hands, bluffing teeth— trying to hold back his cries.

Zeeta appears with a glowing, paper-like body gathered from the direction of Yggdrasil. As Yggdrasil embodies his pseudo-body before them. The violet-haired girl gave a small smile. "Sorry, yes, Brother Azure, sorry to all of you....

"Since I knew what my obligations were, I already knew this would happen. I deliberately didn't tell her because I was still shrouded in a thick fog of doubt. But now, thanks to your presence with me, I can make up my mind!

"This is the path I chose."

No one responded to Zeeta but a whimpering voice that was released or detained.

"Make no mistake, I do want to spend the rest of my life with you, but this is my duty, Friends."

Danny told himself again to say something. "Zey! Me and Luna had a chance to talk, and I would definitely—"

"Yes, Dan, I know. I know what you're talking about. I'll look forward to it when you're really capable of doing it."

"Definitely! I will do it!"

"What's? What are you guys talking about?! There are no secrets between us at a time like this!" Gerda snapping.

Zeeta walked over to Gerda. He chuckled while wiping the cry on his cheek. "Basic, who here is a whiny now, hmm?"

"Whisper! I don't want to hear that from you, you crybaby!"

Zeeta walks to her side, where Mellynda is already sobbing. "Thank you for protecting me and defeating Alter. Without a rematch you'll win it. Thank you for being my noble friend, Melly!"

"I hate you, Zee! You never want to tell me anything this important and keep trying to endure it alone, even if you don't care if we're lonely without you, right?!

"You've always been the light of my path to continue honing my skills. When you suddenly leave from my side, to whom else I will—"

"For your own sake. You will live for yourself and if you want, live for me. I did this because I love you. Laugh, weep, be angry with me .. in a world that is no longer this world of magic."

"Damn! I really want to hug you but that body is translucent, right?! You're a total cheat!"

Zeeta looked towards Yggdrasil, as if asking for something. His friends soon saw the girl's body become real even though it remained glowing. Without saying anything, Mellynda immediately clasped Zeeta tightly. Very very tight. "I love you too, Zee!"

"Yes, Melly, thank you...."

Afterwards, Zeeta bids his farewells to Novalius. "Thank you for your devotion to me, Mr. Novalius. I'm sure your grandfather, Mr. Willmurd, will be proud of you. With this, with the coming of world peace, the Crescent Void would be dissolved. Mr. Novalius, live to be what you want to be. Thank you for protecting me and fighting with me."

Novalius bent his knees. "An irreplaceable honor for me to be of use to you, Your Majesty. I'm very happy with the completion of your obligation, but if you'd like, may you tell us what will happen to you after this?"

Zeeta smile. "certain. Later." He's headed for Colette and Marcus. "Colette."

"Yes! Your Majesty!" The girl who was actually older all those years from Zeeta was still unable to relieve her tension.

"The time I spent with you was mostly magic training. However, you certainly remember how we first met, right?"

"of course! Where could I possibly forget that. You are really what the people are talking about. You are so loved and trusted by them!"

Zeeta nodded. He looked at Marcus. "Thank you for your loyalty and trust in me, even since saving me from Rowing's dungeon, Marcus. You're a hero. Take care of your future wife and make her happy!"

Marcus smiled broadly. "Of course, Princess! Because I love him so much!"

Azure is the last person to be spoken to until his jump. "Sister Azure.... Please take care of our parents, yeah."

"You're not going to say a message like you told them?"

"Hehe, what for? You understand me, don't you?

"After this, I will rest, regardless of all the affairs of this world, in a dimension created thanks to Ars. That dimension is called Avalon. Take it easy, though I won't be involved, I might be able to see you from there. So, keep living, yeah!"

The six people wiped their tears, then answered loudly with a smile. "Yes! Thank you, Zeeta!"

Waving her hands, Zeeta vanished from before them with a smile. Yggdrasil seemed to absorb the girl's body again.

......................

[At the same time since they spoke, the same figure was present before his parents.].

Alicia, Hazell, and Scarlet, after giving their mana to the crystals that later turned into Tofrahnottur, returned to the palace to see what was happening outside the kingdom more clearly. Not yet in the throne room, the three are immediately startled by the arrival of Zeeta who is coming from the opposite direction.

Alicia was petrified immediately, Scarlet was wide-eyed, and Hazell was shaking her head. Without saying a word, Zeeta immediately jumped up and hugged Alicia. "I'm sorry and thank you, Mother...."

Alicia didn't need an explanation of what happened to her daughter. Her crying came slowly but it was getting louder quickly. He stroked the long hair of his seventeen-year-old girl. "Why are you lying to us...? Why are you hiding it?"

Zeeta also cried because of the gentle response her mother gave her. Not a single word exploded. This girl actually felt very comfortable and could not hold back her emotions. He hugged his mother even more. "I .. I don't want you to worry.... If I reveal it, my resolve will definitely not be as solid as it is now.

"Sorry, Mommy....

"I can't spend a lot of time with you.... I really crave being with you, but this is my duty. Ever since Queen Clarissa told me about Yggdrasil's resurrection, I've known that something like this would happen to me."

Hazell is no longer in charge. He held his daughter and wife tightly. "You're the one who should be apologizing, Zee! We can't do anything for you and leave you burdened by obligations like this...!"

Scarlet did not embrace, but she clutched her hand. He did not want to send his grandson away in tears.

"No Dad.... Because of you, Ifrit has protected me many times. Thanks to you entrusting me, I can also see the story of our first ancestor that no one knew, nor interacted with."

"It's enough about the ancestors or whatever it is," said Alicia, "what will happen to you after this? Can't we be with you anymore...?"

"I'll see you from there."

All three shocked. Just one meaning of his words.

"Why is Yggdrasil unfair to you?!" Scarlet finally opened her voice. "After everything you sacrificed—"

"Without me, everything that's going on out there right now, can't be done, Grandma. This is why my power is so much greater than others."

"Although that's the case...."

Zeeta takes off her arms from her parents. "It's time. Please give my thanks to teacher Ashley. Without his teachings, I could not even get to this point. Take care of yourself, yes!"

As Zeeta was about to leave in front of her parents, Alicia immediately grabbed her daughter and kissed all parts of her face except her lips, eyes, and nose.

"L-Mother...?! I'm not a kid! Why—"

"When time has passed, my daughter is still my dear child! Goodbye, my beloved daughter...! I really love you!"

Zeeta couldn't stand that. He immediately cried loudly. "Uhm! I love Mom too! Goodbye...!"

Then, just as happened with the Crescent Void, Zeeta vanished from before them.

"Damn it!!" Scarlet smashed the wall next to her with her bare hands. "Why should it be like this?!"

......................

At the same time, in another place, Arthur and Hellenia who were in the middle of the crowd of citizens, who both saw the growth of Yggdrasil, simultaneously saw a beam of light in one of the alleys near the two. So approached out of curiosity, "Z-Zee?!" it was Arthur's reaction.

"It's a pity my time isn't so much anymore. Sorry to be in such a hurry, Father Arthur, but....

"Thank you for taking care of me for eight years, teaching me all sorts of things, shaping me into who I am now."

"What the hell is going on, Zee?! What did you say?!"

Both of them saw Zeeta's feet, though glowing like the others, it was not perfectly formed. More precisely, it is no longer perfect.

"After this all subsides, keep your promise to me and Miss Hellenia, yes, Dad." This adopted daughter of Arthur smiled sincerely.

Arthur clenched his hands together while looking down. He understands what is going on. "definitely. I'll definitely keep it, so from that, you .. come!"

Zeeta smile. "Just relax, Dad, I'll definitely see from a distance. From the world there, hehe....

"Miss Hellenia...."

"Yes, Princess Zeeta?"

"Make my father happy, yes!"

Hellenia was teary-eyed. "Surely." He answered with a smile.

"You too, Father, the woman next to you has been in love with you since you were teenagers! Take good care of her with greater love!"

Arthur grunts. "Sure!"

Zeeta smiled broadly. "Haaah~ I'm so relieved! It's time. Goodbye, all of you!"

......................

In front of Klutzie and Hitomi, there is Zeeta whose legs until her thighs have turned into roots. He stood up straight close to his feet, opening both hands as if he wanted to hold something. His puffy eyes and slowly opened it indicates that what he asked Xennaville and Siren is done. "You can call my cousin now."

"All right." Klutzie. As one of the last two people who could use magic, this man teleported Ella and Edward who were looking at Yggdrasil right in front of Zeeta.

"A-what's a—?!" Edward, who was shocked to move, saw Zeeta, understood. Same with his sister.

"Ready ready, you two." Zeeta's words immediately carried the cries of her two cousins.

"I thought you were going home!" Edward and Ella said it at the same time. Nevertheless, they held each of Zeeta's hands that had already turned into a wooden rod.

"Thank you, all of you. Ed, Ella, give my regards to Grandpa and grandma." Zeeta smiled, until her face was stiffened by the continuous change of wood. Afterwards, the marks on Ella and Edward's backs glowed. Slowly, from the hand they held, Zeeta vanished like a grain of mana.

"I don't want to kill my own brother with my hands!" edward's helpless sigh restrained his cries and the water of his nose.

"Whisper! What can we do?! Whatever we think, it must end up honoring his wishes!"

.

That day, the day before a Princess loved by all the people and her closest people on her eighteenth birthday, the world of magic changed completely from its foundation. Aurora lost Princess, Princess, Sister, Brother, and Friend. His services to them were irreplaceable, until he later earned the eternal nickname "Witch of Hope".

.

.

.

A pair of feet walk down a stretch of colorful flowers. Purple, white, red, blue, etc. Near the expanse, there is a calm river flow even though the owner of the foot does not know where the source. He kept walking without knowing the direction. He just goes by his feelings, wherever he wants. Then, he saw a little girl with blonde hair and tanned skin. He turned his body and greeted him with a very dazzling and warming smile.

"Welcome to Avalon, Zeeta!"

"Yes, let me rest here, Ars."

"Please. If you want to sleep, just sleep. Nothing's gonna bother you."

Slowly Zeeta lulls herself in the middle of the sea of flowers. He can see the color of the sky is pink and clouds are orange. There are white clouds but they dominate. He closed his eyes without hurry. The wind roared, bringing comfort to him.

"Good break, oh hero of the world...." Shortly after, Ars disappeared from Avalon. He has completed his duties and is now back to his parents' arms.
