We prepared for the final battle against Merlyn and his henchmen. Before we left, Oliver had a surprise because I got a new outfit for the fight, as this time I was to lead our team. The only change to the outfit was that the jacket now shone in green and had a hood. "Everyone ready?" I asked around. "Then let's cut off the snake's head." We took Caro and Nyssa with us to watch us destroy Merlyn. Maybe she would break that. "Merlyn, come out and face your fate!" I called when we got to his hiding place. But since he didn't want to come out, I drew my bow and gave Caro an arrow in the chest. Suddenly a cloud of smoke lit in front of us and Al Sa-Her, The Dark Archer, Malcolm Merlyn appeared. "The magician is finally here," I said simply. I immediately fired an arrow in his direction, but it leaned out of his way skillfully. "So old-fashioned then." I just said as I pounced on Merlyn. To cover my back, the others dealt with Merlyn's henchmen. "Do you honestly think you can defeat the magician." Merlyn called out to me during our fight. "I have already defeated you Al-Sa-Her and this time you cannot escape.", I replied to him. I took an arrow from my quiver and drew the bow and gave Merlyn an arrow. Only this time I had made sure that he couldn't pull it out again, because the arrow had barbs. That means the more he wanted to pull it out, the deeper the arrow dug into his chest. I pressed him against the wall and pushed the arrow deeper into his chest. At some point I had enough, so I drew my sword and beheaded him. When I returned to Oliver and the others, they had defeated his remaining minions. Now there were only Caro and Nyssa left. I decided to let them go after we gave them just as bad a scar as Caro did on me. Because they should live with their shame. When we met later in Arrow Cave, Felicity had cooked for us. When I changed my clothes I was in for a big surprise. Because my scar on my back suddenly disappeared. "That is probably because you let Nyssa and Caro go instead of killing them.", Said Oliver. "I also wanted to ask you if you want to take over my position on the team?" Oliver asked me. "Then what about you?" I asked Oliver back. "I retired to have a normal life with Felicity," he replied. "I realized that you can handle without us, which is why I want to ask for Felicity's hand," he added. "Well then, I wish you the best, you deserve it. And the best thing to do is to ask her right now, Oliver." I added afterwards. "If you think so, Julian," said Oliver. When we were back with the others, Oliver spoke up. "I am very grateful to you for your help and I have decided to retire. I was hoping you would come with me, Felicity," Oliver began. "I realized that I have room for a normal life. You, Felicity, are the only thing I need to be happy. That's why I wanted to ask you an important question. Felicity Meghan Smoak, do you want to be my wife?" " Oliver asked straight out after kneeling down in front of him and taking a ring out of his coat pocket. "Yes, I do." Felicity whispered in his ear. While I was taking on Oliver's role as Arrow, he and Felicity moved to the suburbs of Starling City. I was always in contact with him so that I could get advice from him in an emergency.
