There is laughter and sadness in the rest of the life after the disaster.
Due to the self-destruction of the Midgar cannon, the entire upper level of Midgar and the Shinra headquarters building were completely razed to the ground.
Even though many Shinra Company personnel and Shinra soldiers took refuge outside the city due to the meteorite falling from the sky, tens of thousands of people were still killed in the explosion.
These people did not die from the impact of the meteorite, but were completely wiped out by human creations. It is really sad and deplorable.
In contrast, Shinra Corporation completely declared its collapse.
Many high-level executives of Shinra were killed. Only Heidegger, the director of the public security department, managed to escape by blending into the crowd of refugees in the Lower City. But soon, people recognized this 'big shot' who was often on TV news. He was killed.
After being severely beaten and imprisoned in a temporary prison, Heidegger finally survived for the time being.
Compared with the 2nd and 1st members of the Special Forces who were all killed, the situation of the Secret Service Tuckers was slightly better. Although the supervisor Zeng and most of the Tuckers agents died tragically in the battle between Hojo and monsters in order to protect the Midgar cannon control room.
However, as the elders, Reno and others escaped with their lives because they tracked Heather.
After witnessing the shocking battle, Renault sat on the ground dejectedly and said to his friend Luther -
【No matter what job you do, it’s fine, I don’t want to fight anymore.】
In response, Luther pushed up his sunglasses and nodded silently in agreement.
Returning to the Eastern Continent, Heather and others found that the steel city Midgar had been turned into ruins. The upper city was completely razed to the ground, and the lower city was said to be even more tragic, buried by a large amount of rocks and molten steel.
The once world-renowned economic and cultural center [Midgar] has completely become history.
Next to the ruins of Midgar, a large temporary gathering place was formed by bonfires and simple tents.
There is no longer a distinction between upper city and lower city. People who have escaped from the annihilation crisis support each other and encourage each other, vowing to rebuild a beautiful home.
After asking here and there, Tifa and Heather finally found the person they were looking for in front of a tent.
The landlord Marley was standing in front of a large pot, sweating profusely, vigorously stirring the large spoon, and cooking food for the injured.
"Grandma Marley!"
Tifa ran forward in three steps and hugged Mare tightly. She had long regarded Mare as a relative, and the worry that had been suppressed finally became lighter at this moment.
"Tifa?" Mare exclaimed in surprise at first, feeling the choked sobs of the girl in her arms crying with joy, Mare gently patted Tifa's back to comfort this good child whom she regarded as her daughter.
Then, Mare looked across, and Heather smiled and nodded at her.
"You brat, you kidnapped Tifa for so long... Come and help!" Mare handed the spoon to Heather without saying a word.
Heather scratched her head and had no choice but to take the spoon and start cooking the stew.
In the distance, Barrett lifted his daughter Marlene high into the sky, and his laughter was as loud as thunder.
In front of a tent, Jesse hugged his mother and cried loudly. Biggs and Wiggy took Jesse's mother out of Midgar first and were able to escape the fate of being swallowed by the explosion.
Not far away, Alice also hugged her adoptive mother Emina tightly.
When the moonlight shone down, the starry sky was bright, and clusters of bonfires were lit on the earth.
People may laugh or be sad, but after all, they still think about the beauty of the future.
A new day is about to begin, the morning sun slowly rises from the horizon, and people in both the upper and lower cities are bathing in the sunshine of a new future.
In front of a cliff near Midgar, Cloud placed the Destruction Sword, which was covered in shatters and could no longer be used, upside down on the ground, and gently stroked the handle.
"Goodbye, Zack...thank you."
In a daze, Claude seemed to hear Zack's cheerful voice ringing in his ears——
[It’s finally time to say goodbye. Claude, don’t forget...]
"I won't forget it."
Claude looked at the rising sun with a bright smile on his face:
"I am proof of your existence!"
………………………………
Then, two years flew by.
A new city stands next to the ruins of Midgar. It may not be as luxurious and luxurious as the upper city, but thanks to the assistance of Cam, Junon and other cities, this [New Midgar] was still built at an astonishing speed
.
[Mako], this highly efficient energy source that once made humans all over the world feel as if they were poisoned, was eventually spurned by all mankind, and all Mako furnaces were dismantled.
Without the constraints of Shinra Corporation and Mako Reconnaissance, Junong Port has returned to a peaceful fishing village. More and more people are fond of using chocobos as a means of transportation, and the chocobo farms in the pasture area are doing a booming business.
Although the convenience of human life now is far less than that during Shinra's rule, it is freer and more vibrant.
The heroic actions of Heather and others to save the planet have not spread. The partners who once gathered to save the planet are scattered around the world, running for their own careers and ideals.
Jesse and Claude took Jesse's mother and father who was lying in the hospital bed to the Ice and Snow Village, hoping that it would be closer to the River of Life and might alleviate the symptoms of Jesse's father's severe Mako poisoning.
Barrett took Biggs and Weegee around the world in search of oil fields.
Yuffie returned to Wutai with a large amount of magic crystals, vowing to become the most powerful ninja in Wutai's history.
Tifa and Heather reopened a bar in New Midgar City, still called "Seventh Heaven", while Alice opened a flower shop not far from the bar.
Perhaps because the window paper was pierced, Heather and Tifa no longer hid their emotions and lived a life without shame. The two never mentioned marriage. Heather's reason is that traditional Chinese people
thinking, wanting to bring Tifa back to the original world and receive her parents' blessing.
As for what Tifa was thinking, Heather was never sure. Until one night, the person who opened the door to Heather's room was not Tifa, but Alice who was blushing with shame.
Before closing the door, Tifa's figure flashed past the door.
It wasn't until the decisive battle in the Hollow that Tifa finally realized that Alice's love for Heather was no less than hers. Tifa had always felt guilty and apologetic towards Alice, who did not hesitate to sacrifice her body and soul just to save Heather.
.And she was also very keenly aware that Heather's relationship with Alice was not just a master-disciple relationship, but it was only suppressed deep in her heart because of herself.
For this unclear reason, Tifa had a long chat with Alice in private, and finally decided that the two of them would share Heather's love.
In this way, Alice also lived in the bar.
Heather's life suddenly became... richer. Compared to Tifa's obedience, Alice acted boldly more often, and sometimes she would even pull Tifa along... In fact, Heather felt more and more like Tifa.
The relationship between France and Alice is very impure.
The oranges are in great bloom.
Not only that, in a dream one night, Heather once again saw a woman with blond hair reaching her waist wearing a white dress. She was standing in the sea of reeds and smiling at herself, but it was not just a smile.
In the end, Heather didn't know whether she was having an erotic dream or if it was real.
The happy days passed day by day, and the bar and flower shop were operating prosperously.
During this period, Heather confessed her identity to the two of them, saying that she was not from this world. In response, Tifa just smiled lightly: "No matter where you go, I will follow you."
Alice pointed her finger on her cheek and tilted her head: "The ancient Settras are not allowed to leave the planet... But if the teacher and Tifa want to leave, I will definitely go with them."
That's what he said, but Heather has never been able to find a way to take the two of them away.
Logically speaking, the only way to take them away is to regard them as [weapons] and then recast them into their own telekinesis abilities. But after recasting, are they really still the original Alice and Tifa? What's more, no matter what Heather does,
Even if you give yourself a hint, you can't regard the two women you love as cold weapons.
Gradually, Heather also gave up.
Maybe there is nothing wrong with staying in the Final Fantasy world like this. The will of the world accepts him wholeheartedly, and all the energy and resources in the world are at his disposal. There are also two women he loves, and even the will of the planet is with him.
Sincere emotions'.
There is no longer a need to face those cold, hostile wills of the world, and there is no longer a need to consider how to avoid being expelled or targeted by the world.
Heather can now understand what Bastet means. Once a foreigner finds a world that is willing to accept him, perhaps staying is the best destination.
On this day, Tifa and Alice went shopping together, leaving Heather alone in the bar.
The ceiling fan above the head was turning slowly, Heather was sitting behind the bar with her legs crossed, reading a newspaper, and Thunder Wolf, who had transformed into a juvenile form, was dozing on the floor.
Suddenly, he frowned and looked up at the bar.
I saw a large number of writings made of frost on the bar table, as if the computer suddenly recovered after being stuck and a large amount of data was flushed on the screen——
[You only need to complete any three C-level or higher-level tasks in the current world to leave this world and go to the next random world. 】
[Please note that you must be in a relatively stationary state for 10 seconds when leaving the world. Once the break is interrupted, the act of leaving the world will enter a 3600-second cooling period. 】
[Start issuing random tasks.]
[Current task——]
[‘Long Live Shinra’ – Become the head of any department of Shinra Company/Become the president of Shinra Company. Difficulty rating – D/C]
[‘Loyal Dog Tempus’ – Becoming a 1st special forces soldier. Difficulty rating – D]

[Warning! The world’s will is currently paying too much attention!]
[Warning! The world’s will is currently paying too much attention!]
[Warning! The current strength of the alien fire is not strong enough to resist the attention of the planet’s will!]
[Due to force majeure, all tasks have entered the alternative stage. 】
【…………】
Soon, Heather felt the alien fire in her chest burn, and there were 16 more world flames in it. It seemed that the 'Magic Crystal Hunter' gave 2 fires, and 'I Too, a Legend' gave 4 fires.
"The Fall of the Winged Angel" gave 10 flowers.
What's going on? The Outlander official suddenly faked the corpse? Why didn't you guys get active while I was fighting with Sephiroth?
Before Heather could curse, new frosty writing appeared on the table.
[Sorry, dear stranger, you received too much attention from the will of the world when you entered this world. With your current strength of alien fire, you cannot hide it, so the mission system is forced to enter the hidden interface. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.
.]
"It doesn't matter whether I understand or not, just get out of here." Heather waved her hand and yawned: "I'm doing well in this world, I don't have to worry about it, I feel like I've adapted to your free-range mode.
"
[We can understand your emotions at this time. But please understand, because the basic factor to measure whether a foreigner is qualified is whether you have awakened your conceptual talent. Before that, we should not interfere and guide you too much.
.]
"I really took off my pants and farted..."
Heather became increasingly impatient:
"My girlfriends are coming back soon. It's best not to let them see you. Get out of here."
【So, have you really given up on the vision you had when you first joined the Outlander Journey?】
"..."
Heather frowned. He didn't want to take his girlfriends back to his hometown in glory to meet his parents. However, he really couldn't take them away.
"Wait a minute, do you have a way for me to take them away?" Heather suddenly straightened up from her chair.
[It’s not all smooth sailing. Are you sure you want to take them through a life-and-death crisis? I have a better proposal. I wonder if you are willing to listen to it? 】
"explain!"
[Complete and win the final victory. At that time, you can make a wish and take them back to your hometown. Please rest assured that the 'final wish' will not one-sidedly misinterpret your wishes and will only perfectly achieve the results you expect.
】
Heather crossed her arms and sat in front of the bar: "But I can also stay here honestly, safe and happy."
[Safe? I’m afraid not necessarily. Although the world that outsiders have experienced and left will not be broken into by other outsiders, it is possible for outsiders to break into the world that other outsiders are experiencing. This is within the rules.
Allowed range.]
"...In other words, the best way to protect this world is if I leave here?"
Heather suddenly smiled:
"Are you threatening me?"
[We will never deliberately adjust the encounter between outsiders, just as we will never lie. What I tell you is just a possibility. Although it is small, this possibility still exists. In fact, we
More than once, I have witnessed foreigners who had let down their guard in a certain world and been killed by powerful foreigners who suddenly broke in, and the world they cherished was turned into a piece of scorched earth or even completely collapsed.】
"So, I am now considered a high-quality customer of yours? In the past, you would have been too lazy to care about me, right?"
【Please understand.】
"...If I leave, will it take a long time when I return to this world?"
[Independent of the sea of time and space, for them, your separation may be just a blink of an eye.]
Heather's [Yuan] could already feel Alice and Tifa walking towards the bar chatting and laughing. He slowly exhaled a long breath: "So, what is my next direction?"
[Acquire as much world fire as possible, strengthen your own strength, and accumulate your own strength in order to win the final victory.]
"...I will consider it, you can go."
When the bar door was pushed open, the frosty writing on the bar disappeared, leaving only Heather sitting behind the bar with her arms folded and frowning, and Golden Oga, the thunder wolf dragon, waving his tail and purring in dissatisfaction.
Tifa and Alice walked into the bar lobby carrying shopping bags. When they found Heather with a sullen face, they couldn't help but asked strangely: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Alice looked around keenly. She always felt that something [something] had briefly stayed in the bar hall. It was a higher-level, indescribable feeling.
"I have something to say to you."
After greeting the two people to the bar, Heather looked at the two women she loved and said slowly:
"I may have to take a long trip."
"How long?" "Where?" Alice and Tifa asked at the same time.
Heather said sincerely: "I don't know how long I will be gone. This is my mission as a 'traveller'. But my ultimate goal is to bring you back to my hometown. I want to ask you again,
Will you come with me when I come back again?"
"Yeah!" The two nodded without hesitation.
"I will definitely come back."
As if speaking to Tifa and Alice, as well as to herself, Heather said extremely seriously:
"Until then, please wait patiently for my return."
Tifa touched Heather's cheek and said gently: "Be careful along the way."
Alice stood up on tiptoes and kissed Heather on the other cheek: "You must come back safely."
"I am leaving."
Heather was afraid that he would not have the courage to leave if he didn't leave. After kissing the two of them goodbye, he made up his mind and strode towards the door of the bar.
As he pushed open the bar door, his whole body was completely enveloped by the sunlight outside.
Tifa and Aerith ran over and opened the door, and found that the sun was still shining brightly outside, but Heather was missing.
"He...will definitely come back safely." Tifa put her arm around Alice's shoulders.
Alice gently touched her belly with her hand and nodded:
