Alea took the wooden sword that the guard handed over. She didn't understand why she was being targeted by this person. Perhaps it's just jealousy for the title. The man didn't intend to explain and attacked. The people present knew that the boy was arrogant, but he did have some ability. His grandfather on his mother's side knew a general that could teach him. So his ideology has always been that civil officials can order around military officials. His group of friends have also led him to this belief, and now not even a military official, but a common soldier has achieved the right to become a marquis. However what he wouldn't say is that the omega princess that he was interested in kept peeking at the new marquis, which infuriated him.

So even though he may never have fought in battle it should've been a close fight. That's what the others thought too. However when the new marquis directly crushed the wooden sword in the man's hands and laid her own against his throat, it could be said to have been a bit of a surprise. They couldn't believe her brute strength. They watched as she gave the wooden sword back to the guard and returned to her seat. Raya held back a smile after witnessing Alea's victory. The boy wanted to continue arguing, saying that she wouldn't be able to break a real sword like that but his father quickly thanked Alea for her mercy and dragged the boy back to his seat swearing in the boys ear.

This was a passing scene at the banquet, and soon the emperor retired for the night. After the emperor and empress left Alea lost the desire to stay. So motioning to Raya with her eyes they both said farewell to the others around them and left. The princess that had been peeking at Alea was about to go over and speak to her, when she saw her leaving with an omega hand in hand. She knew that the marquis was already married and she felt a pity. She soon lost interest in staying and left as well.

After they left the palace they returned to the marquis mansion and took a bath and fell asleep. The next day Alea found Rodan and resigned from her position. Rodan knew that she didn't want to fight and granted her request, though he left her an olive branch that he could use an officer like her if she ever changes her mind. She saluted Rodan and left, heading back to the mansion.

Raya didn't unpack the carriages she brought with her, they had been waiting in the mansion for them to leave today. Heading towards Candor the long line of carriages were protected by the guards that she was gifted as a marquis. Raya sent a letter to Kaesan, telling them to come to Candor city with the rest of the belongings.

When entering the city they saw the magistrate standing outside with the officials to welcome them. Alea got off the carriage and chatted with the officials. Raya knew the chat was going well, seeing as the officials had more sincere smiles on their faces. The magistrate invited them to a meal at his house and Alea accepted humbly. She knew these were things she needed to do to put everyone at ease. She wanted to show them that she had no intention of trying to take away anyone's power here. So the next few days revolved around different banquets, and many temptations. All were tactfully refused by Alea which made the officials satisfied, but they knew she wasn't a simple person. She could manage to make everyone feel good about her refusals, which was a clear sign that she was a clever person. Her wife was no different, she maintained a gentle smile and a humble and kind temperament, but they couldn't get any benefit from her either. The two were finally given some peace.

After all the trouble that came with the conscription, to the war and finally to get back to the city they were married in. The two were tired. This journey had taken two years but it made them feel like their month in Candor was a lifetime ago. However a lifetime is shorter than expected.

.... Alea and Raya did many things in their lives.

Raya went on to teach a new generation of omegas that they have more choices than just staying a plaything for alpha. She was responsible for the acceptance of omegas into the imperial examination. Though it was a slow and arduous process, she stuck to it the entirety of her life.

Alea followed Raya with all her ideas. She brought some of the knowledge of her previous world to benefit those of her current world. She gave the information to Raya, who taught it to the omegas which allowed the court to see the benefit of allowing these omegas official positions.

With no war and no fighting necessary. The two of them would have three children. Two alphas and an omega. They raised them exactly the same way. Without prejudice for who they were, what they wanted to be or who they wanted to marry.

Alea and Raya would hold considerable reputation in the Treiss Empire, and at the end of their lives they would be buried together. On the day of their deaths the whole country would mourn the loss of the two great wives. Their legends would be written in various history books which would be learned for millennia to come.

And where did the two of them go after death? Perhaps they're enjoying life in a modern world, flying around in a magical world or they might be hunting ghosts in a supernatural world.

Either way, it's certain that wherever they are. They're still forging put a path together, hand in hand.
