I like that the story ended here in the manga, instead of having it continue. The main conflicts around Gideon's personal connections are resolved, and he has found his place on the edge of the world, outside of the influence of the "main story" as he wanted.
To continue the story, either his goal has to be lost (he has to go back to save the world), or the universe has to make this lazy town in the frontier a critical point of the story and have conflict seek him out. There is the question of what happens with the war against the demon king, but that's the point: they left that to others. They're no longer involved.
Potentially, they might be roped back in if the war takes a turn for the worse. It was mentioned at some point that they might have to fight to protect their peaceful lives in the future. But if they did, it would no longer be a fight for lofty ideals like "saving the world", or compelled by Ruti's Hero blessing. It would be their choice, to fight for what they care about, and that would make a big difference.
