The Sword of El

As the battle begins in the Phosphor Temple, Ephraim started to clash against Elsword, Aisha, Rena and Ain, using his own falchion, only for them to fight back against him. While they were fighting each other, Demetria decided to support her allies, summoning an magic piano to heal her allies, defending them, playing healing music.Near the climax of their battle, Ephraim summons an extremely powerful arcane aura that can only be used by the leaders of the Daystar Purgatory, Nether Valley and Acheron, as well as the Arcane, Rune and Ark tribes in case of extreme danger, in an attempt to paralyze his enemies and escape from the scene, only for his plot to get thwarted by the Arcane Search Party, along with the unexpected Three Musketeers: Sibyl, Leith and Takeo.Not long after they intervened, while reloading his bow with arrows, Takeo saw Astros, the leader of the Daystar Purgatory, showing up in the Phosphor Temple, this time with her now transformed into Astaroth, to face Ephraim for the last time, ready to seal his powers temporarily, accompanied by Froid and Frostine as well as the legendary beast Hayan, who all cornered him. Astaroth speaks to Ephraim "It's over now, Rai. Surrender now or else we'll seal your powers using runic magic." In the end, the latter prostrated to the ground, dropping his falchion to the ground, with Leith grabbing it and throwing it to Sibyl, who then sets it on fire, turning it into ashes. Upon seeing the falchion being reduced into ashes, Ephraim started to scream to the point he started to slowly disappear little by little, with Elsword retrieving the forbidden scrolls and replica of the Rubenian Resonance Stone from his hands, before he left with Aisha, Rena, Ain and the rest of the Arcane Search Party as well as Froid and Frostine, with Sibyl, Leith and Takeo following suit.Soon, Ephraim disappeared, resulting in the explosion of the Phosphor Temple. On the other hand, the rest of the group returned to the Nether Valley, where Laby gave the replica to the cult members, who thanked her for returning their treasure, before she went back to her group's airship to return to the Arcane Realm.Now back to the Arcane Realm, Hayan thanked Froid and Frostine for unsealing her in the Arcane Palace along with Elsword's group, consisting of him, Aisha, Rena, Raven, Ain, Eve, Ara, Elesis, Soyul, Haya, Crescentia, Laby, Noah and Lithia, who were all there at the time of her summoning.Soon, as the others had left the Arcane Realm for Elrios through a portal Hayan summoned in exception of Fabian and Fawn, who decided to stay with their best friend Frostine, Elsword stood in front of the portal, and saw Frostine walking to him, wearing a completely different dress from her coronation dress, with her long white-blue hair, covered by a white veiled hat.As soon as she removes her hat, the two held each other's hands, facing each other. He tells her to never forget him, to which she nodded and in turn, he gave the real Rubenian Resonance Stone, who he has been keeping for a long time, to her. Suddenly, she tells him that she gave her crown to her older sister Naria, who then passed it to her daughter Starla, and offered to come to Elrios with him, after she found out that he and Aisha were divorced for the time being and are simply friends.By the time they returned to Elrios with her best friends Fabian and Fawn, they were greeted by Raven, who welcomed Elsword back and introduced him to her before taking them to the guild hall, where Frostine met Aisha, Rena, Ara, Elesis and the rest of his companions.Soon, everybody became friends with each other, and later that evening, Elsword gathered the rest of his group, now called the "Arcane El Search Party", in a tavern, where they all discussed about their plans to re-establish their base before toasting their drinks. Afterwards, they left the tavern and returned to their original fortified house in Velder.While in the rooftop, Frostine was standing there, looking at the stars, when suddenly, she saw Elsword standing next to her, and said to him "Wait a second. Are you okay...?" He nodded and she continued with "No way... Elsword, how did you get there...?" before covering her face in shame and started to sit on the ground, with him also sitting on the ground.He said "Hey, Frostine, what's wrong? I came here to look at the stars with you too, but why are you scared of me?" She responded with "No, it's not that, but it's just that I never expected you to be there, even though you're 10 months older than I.", before uncovering her face, in which she accidentally kissed him, causing her to push him away from her, even though he started to enjoy her kiss, before she ran downstairs to the master bedroom, where she would cover herself in a large blanket, to which he said "No, Frostine, wait!"Suddenly, Chung walks in the rooftop, and he asks him "Hey there, how's things going on between you and Frosty?" He explained to him about what happened earlier and soon, the two walked downstairs.While in the master bedroom, Frostine sat on the bedside, wearing a white dress, covering her face in shame and soon, she thought to herself "Wait, what if he wants me to continue kissing him? or, what should I do if he wants to be with me?", when suddenly, Elsword opens the door out of curiosity, wearing nothing but a grey sleeveless shirt and red shorts, before walking to hug her, reassuring her that she doesn't have to worry about anything surrounding her. Later that night, they and the rest of the "Arcane El Search Party" group gathered in the dining table. Demetria tells her allies about an legend involving a mysterious sword, called the "Sword of El (엘의 칼)", which was said to wield the power of the primal El while also having the ability to seal the dimensions of the Daystar Purgatory, Nether Valley and Acheron away for good, which caused Fabian, Frostine and Fawn to worry about their friends Seneca and Laban, who were staying in the Daystar Purgatory the whole time. Soon, Elsword and Aisha told them that Laban and Seneca had left the Daystar Purgatory and is staying at an unknown location in Elrios. A few minutes later, Chung asked Demetria about the sword's location, to which she told him that the Sword of El is located within the apple fields that leads to the Daystar Purgatory.And so, the Arcane El Search Party sets out to the Daystar Purgatory for the last time, where they found themselves in the apple fields.Astros saw the sword on the stone and Demetria said to her "So, is this the Sword of El?" She replied "Yes, that's exactly the Sword of El. It has the ability to resonate with the El and seal the dimensions away for good."Suddenly, while Fabian and Fawn were struggling to defeat an uncertain manifestation of the sword fairy, a man appeared, with long blond hair and blue eyes, clad in white and blue clothes, riding on a white horse, offered to help them out by shooting an arrow at the manifestation, eventually defeating it. The duo thanked this stranger, who then introduced himself to them as Prince Azariah, who tried to lead Frostine astray in an attempt to run off with her to the Arcane Realm to tell her brother Froid about his self-centered stories, only to get hit by Haya's light spear, until he surrendered to him and the rest of the Arcane El Search Party, with her thanking him for saving her.A few minutes later, while the rest of the group were surrounding the stone, Frostine walked towards the stone before attempting to pull the sword from the stone using her strength, but it failed, with Elsword coming to her aid, and the two managed to successfully pull the sword out of its stone using their combined strength, summoning a sword fairy, who had problems acknowledging the two of them as his masters since they both pulled the sword out of its stone around the same time, until it was Elsword's turn to give the sword to Frostine, allowing the fairy to acknowledge her as his own master instead, and now, she was the chosen one to wield this Sword of El.Now with the sword in her hands, Frostine and the rest of the Arcane El Search Party returned to Elrios, where they found a stone in Ruben, near the Tree of El, to put the sword in its place and seal the dimensions away.In the end, it was Elsword, who ultimately puts the sword in the stone, effectively sealing the Daystar Purgatory, Nether Valley and Acheron for good, before he left with the others on their way to Velder. Meanwhile, while in the empty grasslands, during sunset, Fabian and his best friend Frostine were lying on the grass, looking at each other, to which she tells him "Fabian, I have something to tell you." He replied "Sure thing, go ahead."She responded with "Actually, your cousin Elsword has fallen in love with me, but I'm scared to confess my feelings for him. What should I do...?" He got shocked, upon seeing her running to hide under a tree, and said "Wait..."Fawn showed up, greeting Fabian. Suddenly, Frostine showed up from the tree, and she said to her "Oh hi, it's nice to meet you Fawn!" The former responded with "I have some bad news for you Frostine. Apparently, Prince Azariah is back, looking for you." While they were discussing about the prince, Elsword was secretly eavesdropping on their conversation while hiding behind the tree, and said to himself "No way, that egoist prince... I'll protect my princess right away!"Prince Azariah showed up, grabbing Frostine's right wrist, and he tells her that he'll take her to the Velder Palace, only for Elsword to kick him to the ground, in which he aimed his sword and said to him "Hey, who do you think you are to her, huh?! Leave her alone!"Upon hearing those words, Azariah tried to confront him, only for Aisha and Chung to shut him down, stating that Frostine wanted to stay with her friends, and he surrendered to them, walking away from the scene in anger and surprisingly, he never looked back.After he left, Elsword and Aisha walked to Frostine and said to her "Frostine, are you okay?" She replied "I'm okay. Thank you for saving me from him." Fabian said to her "You don't have to worry about him anymore. We have your back.", before they went together.Soon, everyone, except for Azariah, gathered around the campfire, with Crescentia saying "Now that the Sword of El is now in the safe hands of the Tree of El, let's hope that it'll not be used by Prince Azariah for his selfish purposes." Demetria agreed, and after several hours of talking between the rest of the Arcane El Search Party, everybody, except for two people, went back to Velder.Now that they were alone, Elsword said to Frostine "Now that we're alone together in this campfire, what should we do next?" She responded with "I need to sleep. Let's follow the others to Velder." to which he agreed and the two returned to the house, where the two of them were standing on a white background in the basement, and saw a mysterious VTuber, who introduced herself as Yunoki Itosugi, only to find out that she was a fortune teller, in this world, facing them.Yunoki soon explains to them about her story of how she was trapped in this game. One day, while in her room in the outside world, she encountered ShadowRunal, a Knight Emperor, who grabs her hand, effectively taking her with him into the game.After she explained her story to them, Elsword walked behind her, in which he whispered to her about her final days in Elrios before she goes back to the outside world, before telling her something abut taking a photo of him and Frostine wearing completely different outfits.Yunoki agreed to his proposal, and she saw him and Frostine changing clothes to completely different ones. Soon, they went upstairs to the rooftop. By the time they stepped foot into the rooftop, the two of them were facing her with a camera she brought from the outside world.Next to her were Aisha, Rena and Ain, who were observing the two of them at the same time, with Aisha looking at Rena and saying to her "Looks like Elsword has found someone who he likes the most, even though I also love him too!" She replied "Of course, everyone knows that you love him even though you both argued with each other before, but why did you divorce him in the first place?"The former responded with "We agreed that it was best for us to be friends instead of getting married to each other." Rena said "Oh, I see... Thanks for letting me know!" before the two of them continued to concentrate on the models. After Yunoki took multiple photos of them, she saw Fabian and Fawn walking upstairs, eventually standing next to her on the left side.Suddenly, to the six witnesses' surprise, Elsword asked Frostine if she could dance with him, to which she said "Sorry, I don't want to make Aisha angry with you again like last time..." He replied "It's okay Frosty, you don't have to worry about her. She's a friend of ours, plus it's just the two of us."She listened to him, and the two danced for a short while before the witnesses except for Yunoki, who was watching the scene the whole time, walked to the corner of the rooftop, where they quietly talked to each other.Now, just as Frostine was about to confess her feelings to him, Prince Azariah showed up, with Yunoki coming to her rescue by summoning a swarm of butterflies towards him, and in the end, upon hearing from the former that she's actually in love with someone else, Azariah turned and walked away, and never returned to Elrios that day, with everyone in the rooftop watching him leave.And soon, it was time for Yunoki to leave Elrios and return to the outside world. Suddenly, a portal shows up behind her, but she wanted to have an final picture with the five witnesses, so in the end, before she left, she managed to take a selfie of herself, along with the 7 people. Afterwards, she thanked everyone for being friendly to her before logging out of the game for good.2 hours after she disappeared, it was night time. While in the rooftop, Aisha, Rena, Ain, Fabian and Fawn, the remaining witnesses, saw Elsword and Frostine staring at each other while holding each other's hands. Then, the two started to blush together and to everyone's surprise, he managed to kiss her, in which Fabian started to cry, covering his eyes.Makena showed up, saying "No way...", until he saw Frostine pushing Elsword away from her in fear, and he walked up to him, aiming his sword from his right hand at him and telling him "What the hell is wrong with you, Elsword?! Why are you doing this to her?" He replied "I'm sorry, Makena! I promise that I won't do the same thing to your friend ever again!"Makena responded with "I see. You are forgiven, but remember: she and I had made a promise to get married to each other the time we grew up, when she saved me." Just as the two of them were talking to each other, Frostine thought to herself "Who should I marry?", to which the two men walked up to her and proposed to her around the same time, with white roses.Ain said to himself "Wait, who thought it was a good idea for her to have two husbands at the same time?" Crescentia and Seneca walks in, and the latter replied to him "I don't know, but she has to either marry Elsword or Makena, or else things will not work out for the three of them in the long term."And now, it's up for Frostine to make a decision herself. Who will she marry? Her best friend Fabian's cousin Elsword, or her childhood friend Makena who she made a promise with when they were both kids?Towards the end of the story, her older brother Froid showed up, and challenged her two suitors to play rock paper scissors with each other. By the end of the first round, although Elsword had somehow lost to Makena in the first round of rock paper scissors, Froid challenged them to a second round of rock paper scissors. In the end, it was the former who won the second round, and upon hearing from the members of the former's group about how they all rely on and trust him as much as he does, Froid allowed him to marry Frostine, to his excitement that she eventually chose to get engaged to him over Makena.Although Makena was a bit upset, he managed to keep an calm tone and saw Froid and Elesis, the older siblings of the couples respectively, welcoming the couple to their families and telling them to take good care of each other, before congratulating Frostine on her engagement.Eventually, the people who were there in the rooftop at the time and the rest of the Arcane El Search Party, including Raven, Eve, Ara, Soyul, Haya, Laby, Noah, Lithia and their new ally Demetria, who were staying downstairs at the time, went to the tavern, where they all gathered for a feast.While at the tavern, Frostine decided to pose alongside her new fiancé and his friends Aisha and Rena, before posing with her friends Fabian, Fawn, Seneca, Crescentia and Demetria. The next day, to his surprise, the two of them broke off their engagement, due to Frostine's personal circumstances, and Elesis gave the engagement ring back to him on her behalf.And so, upon hearing from his sister that his engagement has been called off and receiving the engagement ring from his now ex-fiancée, Elsword decided to reunite with Aisha once again, this time, they're more than just friends, and had teamed up with Ain to go on an another adventure, becoming a group of three, beyond the dimensions of the Daystar Purgatory, Nether Valley and Acheron, thereby concluding the story of them and their adventures in the dimensions.
