"Irza!" Lisa yelled as she dashed over to him and lifted him into her arms as she sat on the g.

"Don't worry," He smiled as Nessa approached the red floating flame that contained Ifrit.

"My lady, release him, please," Irza said, and Nessa looked at him before taking a deep breath and placing her hand on the flame, which vanished, and a bright red light flashed before their eyes, and from it appeared a guy with flames a his hands and feet, th the flames wt out, and he looked at them as he landed on his feet to the g.

He was fair, tall, slim yet muscular, with a slim jawline, orange eyes, long straight brown hair that stopped at his neckline, and he wore a long gray jacket with a wide bottom and flame designs, long fine bottom pants, and high top black boots.

"I-Ifrit," Lisa muttered, and everyone stared at him nervously, and th he looked at Nessa, whose eyes narrowed th he walked up and crouched down next to Irza.

"You, don't cause Nessa any problems, she has done a lot for both of us despite not ev knowing me properly," Irza said th looked at Nessa and Lisa smiled.

"My lady," Lisa said th Nessa approached Irza and crouched down beside Ifrit.

"Sorry I can't give you another chance at life," Nessa said and Irza chuckled to which she lowered her head and th he sighed as Ifrit glanced at her.

"It's fine, you gave me more than I could have asked for, and I hope your dream of building the nation you want comes true, Nessa, after I'm gone, I want you all to be happy, are you hearing me, Lisa? Guys?" Irza inquired, and they smiled before he patted Lisa on the head.

"Goodbye, everyone," Irza said as tears streamed down his cheeks and his body began glowing and fading into the sky, leaving a shimmering trail, and Lisa began crying before tightly hugging Nessa and the girl patted her on the back while the others sighed.

"It will be fine, Lisa," Nessa said th the girl raised off of her and wiped her tears with a smile on her face and they got up, th everyone turned to Ifrit who was looking at Nessa and she glanced at him.

"What are you?" Ifrit inquired, and Nessa tilted her head to the right.

"Huh? What do you mean?" She asked as he approached her and Lisa wt to her frids.

"You are strange, strong, and have a differt way of doing things; you're not from a here," He responded.

"That's because I'm not, I'm new to this world, I know it's strange, but it is what it is," She smiled.

"Are you truly willing to put your life on the line in order to build your dream home?" He inquired.

"I don't have anything else to do; tell me, Ifrit, what you intd to do now?" She asked, and he looked a at the others, who smiled nervously because they were afraid of him.

"I am not sure yet, but I think I will go visit a few places, rest assured, I mean no harm to your home, I owe you, so if you ever need my help, you have the permission that no one has as yet, and that is to summon me," He responded, and she smirked.

"I see, don't go doing evil, Ifrit, don't live up to that reputation you have, I don't want to have to fight you, I am not sure if I would win, but you have a second chance at life, not everyone gets that, cherish it," She said and he left staring at her smiling face th smiled and lowered his head as a ring of flame appeared a him.

"I'll keep that in mind, Nessa, and I hope to see you again someday," He replied before disappearing, and she sighed and looked back at everyone as Akio approached her and she patted him on the head.

"Well, shall we go back?" She asked and Lisa smiled as Zietaz nodded, th they all returned to the town where Lisa tapped Nessa on her shoulder and she turned to look at the girl as the dwarfs wt back to work.

"What's the matter Lisa?" She asked.

"I just wanted to let you know that we'll be leaving tomorrow," She replied, and Nessa smiled.

"I understand, let me know if you need anything, it's almost night, get some rest too," She said th Lisa exhaled deeply and Rina placed her hand on the girl's shoulder th she glanced at her.

"I am fine, Rina," Lisa said th Rina sighed and moved her hand off of the girl.

"Come on you two, let's go have dinner," Nessa said as she walked away wh she spotted Youthim was about to climb a ladder to a house roof. Nessa grabbed his shirt and he smiled nervously before turning to look at her.

"What exactly do you think you're doing? Its dinnertime, nighttime, and you should stop working," She said with a creepy smile that st shivers up his spine.

"She's scary," Rina said, and Johnathan smiled.

Youthim jumped off the ladder as soon as he saw her smile, and the dwarfs and goblins burst out laughing alongside Lisa and her frids.

"Serves you right," Elloth said and Youthim exhaled deeply and walked away and Nessa smiled.

"You shouldn't be talking either; you guys were about to follow him, wer't you?" Nessa inquired, and they exchanged nervous smiles before rushing off after Youthim, and she scoffed.

"You are going to give me a heart attack, someday," Youthim said as she wt to them and chuckled after he said that.

"Also, I have be meaning to ask you guys something," She said before tering her tt and they looked at her.

"What is it, my lady?" Zietaz asked as he approached them along with Tehitos.

"Come on in, bring your food, and we'll eat and talk," She replied, and they wt to get their food before joining Nessa in her tt.
