This marks the end of Union Fest,

but I look forward to hosting another exciting event like this!

The closing performance of Union Fest...

All three nations kept the people entertained all throughout Union Fest,

and the heat of the final night carried on through the evening.

Starting tomorrow, we return to our everyday lives...

and...

furui nooto ni kakitsuzutta

An old notebook chronicles

ano hibi no monogatari ni

The tale of those days

ji endo wa mada

Which is yet to end

tokei no hari ga susumu goto ni

As the clock spins

omoi wa tashika ni chikazuiteku

Our hearts will surely meld

hito wa negau toki sora wo miageru wake wa kitto

The reason we look up into the sky when we make a wish

yume no iriguchi tsunagatteru to

Is because it's a gate into the world of dreams

shinjiteiru kara boku wa hitomi tojita

That's what I believe, so I close my eyes

kasukana kibou wo sagasu mitai ni

As if to search for a faint hope

fearless boku wa motto tsuyoku naritai

Fearless! I want to become stronger

omoide ja naku ima no kimi no tame ni

Not for memories past, but for you in this moment

negau koto mo masshiro na hane wo yadoshite

Carrying wishes upon pure white wings

kimi ga iru ao no hate made maiagare

I'll soar high into the blue sky and reach you

Come in.

Hero, you're going out with the Princess and her friends today, right?

Yeah.

They're making lunch right now.

I know. I just saw them in the kitchen.

I brought this for you.

Huh?

Clothes?

I ordered them from my favorite store.

Try it on.

I'm sure you'll like it.

These are great!

I figured you'd want to wear something other than your Hero outfit.

Yeah.

Are you sure I can just have these?

I got them for you.

Just take them.

Well, Hero, this'll be your last job of the summer.

Yes!

Your mission is to have a good time with the Princess and her friends,

and to have fun with Rebecca and the Princess.

Can you do that?

I, the Hero, will do my best!

All right! Get going!

Shinku!

Lord Leo, Nanami!

Where'd you get those clothes, Shinku?

Eclair got them for me.

Really?!

They look great!

Oh, you're all here!

We're ready to go.

Well, then...

Let the Heroes & Rulers' highland picnic...

begin!

It's beautiful!

Isn't it nice?

This is our favorite place to come during the summer!

The water's very clean, and there are fish, too.

You're right!

There are so many!

There are so many deities, too...

The fairies' protection is strong here, and wildlife thrives.

This is still the tip of the iceberg, though!

There are even more amazing things ahead!

Let's take a picture!

A group photo!

Let's take turns, then.

We'll start with you and everyone else.

Don't worry about that.

May I, Leo-sama?

Yes. Noire!

Yes, ma'am!

Covert attendants...

at your service.

Noire, could you take the photo?

Leave it to me.

All right!

I've got tons more to show you!

Huh?

My ancestors...

and Isuka-dono?

We gave Hero Stones to Shinku and Gaul,

but not to you, Nanami.

Oh, yeah.

You're also a very talented Hero.

We'll be sure to create another one by the next time you visit.

Really?!

Thank you so much!

Well, kid, although we had some trouble in the beginning,

you and the little one did wake us up.

We appreciate it.

You've done a lot for us, too. Thanks.

You've inherited the Demon Crystal.

You'd better train with it.

Okay,

I'll do my best.

Sorry.

I couldn't find any other time to give this to you.

Don't worry about it.

Thanks for coming all the way out here.

Without further ado, here's the item you ordered.

All right, people!

Our guests are gonna be here soon!

It's a surprise goodbye party for the Heroes!

Let's give it everything we've got!

Yeah!

I didn't expect this to be such a huge event.

Well, Lord Gaul is hosting it, after all.

The Princess and the Heroes are arriving now!

Get ready, everyone!

Are you surprised, guys?

You may have wanted a simple dinner, but there's no way we'd let you get away with that!

We young knights prepared a surprise party to thank you guys for everything you've done!

I bet you didn't expect this!

No, we didn't!

You got me!

Now, Heroes and Rulers to the stage!

I'm home, Hina.

Welcome home.

I got this from the leaders.

How about it?

Sounds excellent.

Let's have some.

How was the farewell?

They all enjoyed it.

They also thanked me...

for the blades I made them.

What did you make for them?

Some knives they can use for cutting fruit, using around a campsite,

and other household things.

I gave Becky a kitchen knife because she likes to cook.

You made some multipurpose knives?

It's been a while since you did that.

That's true.

However, I had to match their fine smiles with some fine blades.

It was definitely worth coming back here for.

I see.

Welcome home, everybody.

Captain Riselle!

We're back.

I'm ready, Princess.

All right.

Huh? Where's Cou-sama?

We got ready for the bath and left the room together,

but she had to take care of something.

Oh.

Bath time, bath time...

You're late, Shinku!

Cou-sama?!

I figured I'd let those two have some alone time.

We're both successors of the King of Heroes, so...

Let's take a bath together!

Oh yeah, Rebecca-san, how is it going?

About Shinku always calling me "Becky?"

Yes.

No change.

He'll probably call me "Becky" forever.

I think he still sees me as his little childhood friend.

I don't think so.

It's okay.

It's always been like this.

Anyway, Princess, I'm sure work will be hard for you,

so feel free to call me whenever you want!

I may be Pastillage's Hero, but I'm also your friend!

Okay.

Thanks!

You can also call me anytime.

Thanks, Princess.

You're quite good at this!

Really?

Thanks.

I'm gonna rinse you off now.

Okay.

Right, there was something I wanted to ask you.

What is it?

Do you intend to become family with Rebecca, Millhi-nee, or maybe both?

Wha-

Well, marriage between a Hero and a Ruler is quite troublesome.

Uh...

How about we rinse your tail now?!

Go ahead!

I'm still a novice Hero, and I haven't achieved my goals yet.

Your goals?

To beat Nanami.

We've competed countless times,

but I've never beaten her in any serious or professional competitions.

Victory!

I remember her beating you in that duel during Union Fest...

Yeah...

My goal is to beat Nanami in a professional competition.

I can't be a full-fledged Hero until then,

so I can't think about anything further than that yet.

I see...

But you must remember to take good care of those who stand beside you as you reach for your goal.

You're right...

Thanks, Cou-sama.

I'll remember those words.

Good!

Rebecca!

Cou-sama!

How was your bath?

Shinku washed me, so I'm spotless!

Yeah, you smell really nice.

Right?

Please feel free to use the bed.

Okay!

You too.

Okay-

Wait, that's...

Come on! Let's sleep together!

Come on, Shinku!

I-If you say so...

Yay!

Over here, Shinku!

They're both fast asleep.

They woke up quite early this morning.

I'll turn off the lights.

Hey, Shinku...

Yes?

Do you remember when we said goodbye last time, and I told you I loved you?

Of course.

I said the same thing to you.

The fact that we're able to hold hands like this, right here, all seems like a dream.

We'll have to say goodbye again soon, though.

I'll be able to visit again after exams in the fall.

I'll be here again before you know it.

I'll be waiting.

I'd like to cuddle with you tonight so that I don't forget your warmth or smell...

May I?

Yes, of course.

Then...

squeeze!

It's so warm...

Rise and shine, Leo-sama, Nanami-san!

You too, Gaul-sama, Génoise! Wake up!

Come on, wake up!

Violette-san...

couldn't you let us sleep in today?

There's got to be a nicer way to wake us up on the Heroes' last day here.

Those are two separate issues!

The Heroes have fulfilled their duties and will be returning to their homeland.

It is time for Biscotti's Hero, Shinku, and Pastillage's Hero, Rebecca, to take a break.

Please return your treasures to your summoners.

That concludes the returning ceremony.

Thank you!

This is for you, Rebecca.

It's a treasure of mine that my mother gave to me when we parted ways.

This is what you went to get?

Yes!

I'd like you to take it with you and maybe wear it once in a while.

I couldn't take something so important to you!

It's an artifact of the bond...

between the Heroes and Summoners from two different worlds.

Preferably, it should be something that will be in both our memories.

It's one of the conditions of the new summoning procedure invented by Rico.

I'm sure this will connect our two worlds perfectly!

I'll treasure it.

I'll give it back to you any time you want to wear it.

Thanks!

I love you, Cou-sama...

I love you too, Rebecca.

This is for you.

It's an Earth-style clock made in Biscotti.

Rico designed it, and Yukikaze, Eclair, and I helped her build it.

Thank you.

I'll take good care of it.

Please do.

This is my gift.

It's a Galette MVP trophy for Union Fest.

I'm so happy!

Thank you!

I'll come back as soon as I can.

Be ready for me, Leo-sama.

I'll be waiting, Nanami.

Goodbye, Princess, Cou-sama.

Bye, you two!

Let's meet again soon!

Okay!

Earth - City of London, England

Huh?

Welcome home, Nanami.

Mom...

When'd you get home?

I would've picked you up if you had called.

This... is my house!

Did the jetlag get to you?

Give me any trash and laundry, okay?

Okay.

August 30th, 03:35 pm

Earth - Tokino-cho, Kinokawa City, Japan

Is this your room?

Hello?

Hey, Shinku?

Nanami?

Are you home?

Yeah.

What about you two?

We're fine.

Do you want to talk to Becky?

Sure.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Where'd you arrive?

And so, that was the end of our summer adventure.

We made lots of memories,

and there's even proof that it all happened.

It's nice to be back home,

but I slept with Cou-sama all the time when I was over there,

so it's weird not having her here...

Becky

Every Hero gets that feeling.

Bear with it!

I think I finally understand how you felt in the spring.

Right?

Oh, did you write the letter?

Yeah, I did.

Oh, when we go to the library tomorrow to do homework, could you look over it?

I want you to check my Flonya Script.

Gotcha.

Shinku, dinner's ready!

Okay!

See you tomorrow.

This way, mom!

All right.

Hey, Shinku!

Hey!

What's wrong?

It's rare to see you with your hair down...

It looks better with the pendant.

I look a little more grown-up, right?

Yeah, a lot!

You look really pretty!

Thanks.

That reminds me, you helped me when Cou-sama was retrieving that pendant.

We worked together.

You're a Hero, and now you're more grown-up...

Maybe "Becky" is a little too childlike for you now.

Maybe I should use...

"Rebecca?"

Well, uh...

I did want you to call me that, but...

Rebecca.

It's surprisingly embarrassing when you actually say it!

Why do I feel so uneasy?!

Rebecca, it's because you aren't used to it, Rebecca!

No!

I can't take it!

What?!

Oh, no!

You can just keep calling me "Becky" for now.

I'll even put my hair back up!

Well, if you say so...

I'm being so selfish, yet you're being so nice...

Don't worry about it.

Thanks, Shinku.

I love you!

Yes, I love you too, Becky!

Let's go!

Okay!

During our second summer of middle school, Shinku spent his second,

and Nanami and I spent our first times as Heroes.

Someday, we will depart once again to that place where our beloved friends and precious memories live.

mori no naka meiro mayoikonda

Getting lost in a maze of trees

maru de sonna deai

That's what our first encounter felt like

natsu no sora taiyou chiheisen to

Beyond the summer sky, sun, and horizon

me no mae wa kanata tooi sekai

I saw another world far, far away

(zenshin)

zenryoku de hashitte

I ran with (all my might,) all my strength

(niji no)

yume ni mukatte

Toward our (rainbow) dream

(subete)

me ni utsuru mono

And took in each (and every) thing I saw

kimi ga ita kara kagayaita sekai

The world was shining because you were there

kakedashita azayaka ni

I break into a sprint, with vibrant memories

sukoshi otona ni natta you na kirameku hibi

Of the wonderful days when we grew up just a little

itsudemo tsunagatteiru

Since we're always connected

kokoro ga aru kara

Through our hearts

mata sugu ni aeru hazu

We should be able to see each other again soon

koko de matteru

I'll be here waiting
