<Author’s Notes>

  My apologies. I’ve been a little busy today and don’t think I’ll have to write a full chapter, so I’ll just make do with a slightly changed mini-chapter from the Light Novel.

  ※The timeline is around the time Isis and Kaito started dating.

  ※At this time, Alice and Fate aren’t lovers yet.

  One fine afternoon, I was heading to Alice’s miscellaneous goods store. Alice is always right behind me as my guard, but I often go to her miscellaneous goods store when I want to chat or hang out with Alice.

  Heading towards the miscellaneous goods store through the street that I’m quite familiar with nowadays, when I arrived there and found another person there besides Alice.

  [Unnn? Arehh? If it isn’t Kai-chan. Yahooo~~]

  [Fate-san?]

  In front of the counter, riding on her floating cushion, drinking tea with Alice’s clone dressed in a cat costume was the Supreme God of the God Realm, Fate-san.

  As I tilted my head, wondering why Fate-san was here, the cat costumed clone blurred and taking its place was the familiar Alice…… The real one probably changed places with the clone.

  As Alice set up a chair for me in front of the counter, as she had been used to doing on my visits, she spoke.

  [……Fate-san often comes here, you know?]

  [Is that so…… I see. I was just thinking that it was an unexpected combination……]

  [Shall-tan and I are soul friends after all!]

  Hearing my words, Fate-san gave me a thumbs up, to which Alice had an astounded expression on her face.

  [Well, my friendship Fate-san goes for 20,000 years already…… We’ve been friends since the day I went with Kuro-san to invade the God Realm, and she would come visit the shop often. She never bought any of my merchandise though…… She never bought any of my merchandise though!!!]

  [……Within my mind, I’ve shopped here more than a thousand times though.]

  [You buying my stuff in your mind doesn’t make sales, you know!?]

  [But, but, I properly help you out, Shall-tan. I even lent you the temple of one of my subordinates before.]

  It’s quite unusual that Alice is the one doing the tsukkomi. And there, I feel like something Fate-san said something I just couldn’t overlook. She lent her a temple? Could she be talking about that? About that thing Chronois-san told me before, how Alice took the form of a God and gave blessings to people?

  I was wondering how she slipped in…… but I never expected that she would have a Supreme God as an accomplice.

  [Well, let’s put that aside for a moment and explain to Kaito-san…… that Fate-san often takes refuge here.]

  [……Unnn? She takes refuge here?]

  [Yes, my store is a little special, and I’ve made it so that it can’t be detected by Search Magic.]

  [Yes, yes, Shall-tan’s Recognition Inhibition Magic is the best in the world, so even God of Space and Time can’t find me here.]

  Just as usual, Chronois-san was feeling troubled. I’ll tell Chronois-san where to find this miscellaneous goods store next time…… Yep, let’s do that.

  [Well, as expected, she would definitely find this place if she used Fate-san and Life-san’s authority at the same time.]

  [That can’t be helped. Magic and authority basically don’t have the same power…… Well, I’m sure that when it comes down to it, Shall-tan would be able to deceive her way out of it.]

  [Speaking of which, I don’t really know much about them…… but what’s the difference between magic and authority?]

  I was curious about what Fate-san casually said, so I decided to ask them about the difference between magic and authority. Somehow, from what Fate-san just said, I got the impression that the authority is a higher power than magic…… I wonder how it actually was?

  In response to my question, Alice and Fate-san exchanged a glance and nodded at each other, before Alice spoke.

  [……I suppose it would be alright. Kaito-san is getting more and more acquainted with the Gods, and since Fate-san, a Supreme God, is here, shall we explain what authority is?]

  [Unnn. If it’s alright, yes.]

  [Yes, yes. Well then, I’ll get things prepared then.]

  [Prepared what?]

  As soon as she said that, Alice took a huge blackboard out of nowhere, and at the same time, an armchair that looked like something you would find in a school appeared, and for some reason, Fate-san sat on it. Moreover, looking at her again, I saw Alice’s outfit had changed to a white coat for some reason. Thereupon, Alice and Fate-san exchanged glances once again, nodded once, and spoke at the same time.

  [ [ Teach me! Shall-tan-sensei!!! ] ]

  [……………………]

  The heck, you starting a skit or something!?

  [And thus, in this corner, I, Shall-tan-sensei, will be answering the questions of the students.]

  [Here! Shall-tan-sensei!]

  Errr, in other words, Alice is playing the role of the teacher, while Fate-san, who just raised her hand, is playing the role of the student? I’m starting to feel like I asked the wrong people……


  Also, it’s not the God Fate-san that’s teaching, it would be Alice huh…… Well, it certainly feels like it would be impossible to have Fate-san take the role of a teacher.

  As I was stunned by the turn of events, a smug smile appeared on Alice’s lips, before she pointed towards Fate-san, who was holding up her hand.

  [Yes, Student Fate-san. You can ask your question.]

  [I’m tired already, so can I go home now?]

  [Why!? We haven’t even answered a single question yet! Look, I’ll bake you some cookies later, so please take it seriously.]

  [……Yeeeeeees.]

  I wonder what kind of reaction I should make here? These two were acting like complete idiots, but on one hand is one of the Six Kings, the pinnacles of the Demon Realm, while on the other hand is a Supreme God from the God Realm.

  With these two standing among the top of the world, I’m feeling anxious if this world would be alright.

  [Well then, once again, Shall-tan-sensei, I have a question!]

  [Yes, please ask.]

  [Does bananas count as snacks?]

  [Unnn, let’s see. Bananas are nutritious, sweet and easy to eat when you’re hungry, so with it being a great food, I don’t conside——— Wait, what kind of stupid questions are you saying now!?]

  A self-tsukkomi……. How should I say this…… These two sure are close. And as I thought, with this combination, Alice ended up being the tsukkomi instead of the boke.

  In fact, looking at them like this, they seemed to make a great combination, and their personality seemed to be compatible with each other.

  [No, I just thought that’s something I should ask at least once. Anyhow, once again, what are these authorities that Gods use?]

  I’ll say this now, but seeing how the one asking the question is a Supreme God, it really looked like a farce.

  [Authorities are inherent abilities of Gods, directly given to them by the absolute God of the world, Shallow Vernal-sama. At the same time, authority is also something that the Gods govern. The fact that Gods were referred to as “God of 〇〇〇” denotes the authority they govern.]

  [Ehhh~~ In that case, how is that any different from magic?]

  [Yes, they may be similar, but they’re also very different. The authority allows them control over the concept itself, so it’s a higher power than magic.]

  [Teach. Please teach us in an easier to understand way.]

  [Let’s see. If I were to compare it to sport, magic is an art that allows the athletes to improve, while the authority allows them to manipulate the rules of the game itself, or something like that? In the first place, in relation to existence, authorities are far higher.]

  While explaining what authority is, Alice began drawing pictures on the blackboard. Drawn on it was chibified Fate-san and Alice, and some dice.

  [Let’s take Fate-san’s authority over fate as an example. First off all, the principle itself, Principle of Causality Manipulation can be used even by the upper ranks of the High-ranking Demons. There is even magic that allows you to see the future and manipulate the principle of causality.]

  [Arehh? Then, wouldn’t magic, that could do the same thing as an authority, be superior?]

  [Of course, even though it can’t do everything, magic does allow them to use such abilities. For example, if I wanted to determine the outcome of this dice roll, I could easily do that. In this situation, here’s a question. What would happen if Fate-san and I were to use our abilities to determine the roll of this die? If I try to get a one and Fate-san tries to get a six…… What do you think would happen?]

  [Hmmm…… I guess that would depend on who’s stronger among you two huh?]

  Indeed, even Ein-san can manipulate time, which makes me understand that what can be done with authority can also be done with magic. But then, I can’t tell the difference between magic and authority anymore. As I was thinking that, Fate-san asked Alice to explain again, which she reiterated with an explanation that’s easier to understand.

  [As a matter of fact, that isn’t the case. Even if I’m many times stronger than Fate-san, in this case, the six that Fate-san determined will always come out. It’s the truth of the world that authority would always be superior to magic…… That is because authorities are the rules themselves. Thus, even if a magic and an authority were to do the same thing, the authority will always take precedence.]

  [Then, does that mean those who make use of authorities are much more powerful than magic users?]

  [As a matter of fact, it can’t be said that this would generally be the case. Since the authority is a very specialized power, they won’t be able to do anything that doesn’t correspond to their authority. With magic, they would be able to do as many things as they want depending on their personal skills, but while authority may be more powerful, its effects are limited.]

  [Fumu fumu.]

  In other words, it would be like the all-rounders vs the specialized? Magic can do a wide variety of things, but it’s absolutely no match for authorities that can do the same effect as their spells.

  On the other hand, authorities would have absolute dominance within a certain scope, but it can only do certain things, so there would also be times when they aren’t very practical.

  [……Well, I can do a lot of things with my authority.]

  [……There are exceptions after all. Fate-san’s authority is basically known as the strongest because it allows her to interfere with any phenomena. It’s for this reason that Fate-san is the strongest among the Gods, aside from Shallow Vernal-sama……]

  Indeed, Fate-san’s authority that allows her to interfere with the principle of causality sounded like it could do anything. In short, except towards those whom her authority is ineffective, Fate-san holds absolute supremacy over all others…… Unnn, I don’t need to think about this again, she had an incredible cheat.

  In contrast to that, Chronois-san’s authority of time has a very powerful effect, but it probably only allows her to do a limited number of things.

  [Ahh, by the way, one more thing. Why are authorities superior to magic in the first place?]

  [It’s simple. The authorities are reproductions of Shallow Vernal-sama’s power itself. Shallow Vernal-sama is the God of the world, the highest power in the world.]

  I see, Shiro-san certainly was the God who created this world. In other words, it would make sense that Shiro-san’s power is the absolute rules of this world and the most powerful.

  (In other words…… I am the rules.)

  I kinda feel like the meaning of those words were different from what I had in mind.

  Shiro-san spoke into my mind as if it’s a matter of course…… Her voice was as inflectionless as usual, and her expression probably hadn’t changed…… but I kinda feel like I’m hearing her smugness from here.

  (Doya.)

  No, you don’t really have to say it out…… Well, anyhow, I could tell that Shiro-san was amazing.

  (You can praise me more, you know? Praises make me happy.)

  Let’s just leave that for another time……


  Leaving the conversation with Shiro-san at an appropriate time, I turned my gaze back to Alice and Fate-san.

  [……I see. I understand now! Thank you, Shall-tan-sensei!]

  [No, no, do you have other questions?]

  [Yeeeeees! How can I win over Kai-chan!!!?]

  Oi, with that serious expression on your face incomparable to earlier, the heck are you asking, Supreme God……


  [Let’s see. Even though he looks like this, Kaito-san is kind of a pushover. I don’t recommend forcing yourself on him though, because Kuro-san will definitely appear and stop you…… Putting it in another way, forceful ways are effective as long as they aren’t those that would make Kuro-san intervene. Perhaps, even if you force him out on a date, he’ll just go along with it.]

  [Fumu fumu.]

  [The route Fate-san uses, clinging to him and acting spoiled around him, seems to be very effective. In fact, I think that if you keep your requests a little more moderate, he will pamper you quite a bit. Kaito-san is a softie after all.]

  You’re supposed to be one of the Six Kings, right? The heck are you coaching there…… Also, doesn’t that really sound like you’re telling her really effective means!?

  Indeed, if for example, Fate-san isn’t asking me stuff like marrying her or adopting her…… and was instead asking me to go shopping with her, or hang out with her…… I feel like I might really just agree.

  Well, fortunately, Fate-san is probably not going to do it. She won’t, right? I mean, it’s Fate-san we’re talking about here. Even if she’s taking notes over there, she’s probably going to think that it’s too troublesome when she’s about to execute it, so it will be back to the usual routine.

  [Moreover, I estimated that Kaito-san’s preferred situation was……]

  [Mhmm, Kai-chan’s preference!?]

  I wonder why? I kinda feel like the situation is turning ominous. If things keep going like this, much less my privacy…… Even the fetishes I myself don’t know would be exposed to the public.

  I- I need to stop them…… But putting aside Alice, I wonder if I can stop Fate-san? It’s not like Kuro would just come at the right time……


  (I’ll teach you some magical words.)

  Unnn? Magical words?

  (“Help me, Shiro-san”. Just say these words and everything will be solved)

  ……Errr, u- unnn…… Help me, Shiro-san.

  [ [ Higyaaaahhhh!? ] ]

  [……Eh?]

  The moment I muttered that, above Alice and Fate-san’s heads…… a piko piko hammer appeared, and swung down on their heads.

  And then, just as I heard the cute little poink sound, the two of the most powerful beings in the world were, for some reason, rolling around with their hands in their hands.

  [……Wait, Kaito-san. I can already guess what happened…… but you do realize that hammer really hurts, right!? Of all the people to ask, it had to be her? Seriously, can you please not do that? She doesn’t know what moderation is…… Not only does it penetrate all of my magic defenses, it also inflicts pain “directly to my sense of pain, you know!?]

  [I’m sorry! Shallow Vernal-sama, everything is because of my depravity! I- I’m really sorry!!! P- P- Please forgive me……]

  [……Ah, no, ummm…… I’m really sorry. Wait, Fate-san! Please calm down!]

  [I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry……]

  Its effect was more frightening than I expected. Alice was writhing in pain upon receiving the strong attack of Shiro-san, someone who doesn’t know moderation. However, the damage to Fate-san was more serious than that.

  It seems like the fact that a God, Fate-san, has been scolded by Shiro-san was an even more serious incident than I thought…… After stumbling around in pain, she got down on her knees, half-crazed, and banged her head on the floor repeatedly, and just like a broken recorder, she repeatedly apologized.

  The magic words I had uttered in an attempt to request for help had an unexpectedly powerful effect….. After I had tried helping out Fate-san, who had suffered great mental damage, I had to ask Shiro-san to come out…… which somehow ended up needing more effort than I had thought.

  This is the moment when I vowed never to use these dangerous magical words again.

  However, it seemed like fate could be ironic, as I had used these words again later…… and brought a single wyvern to a disastrous end.

  Serious-senpai : […..Ahh, this piko piko hammer later came to Kaito’s hands, which is then used on a certain perverted bird……]

  Ironblooded Bacchus

  For the time being, as I had gotten close enough to Amel-san that she started calling me sworn friend, I decided to take the opportunity to ask her some things about the Wingeds.

  [……Heehhh…… The Wingeds are common in the Archlesia Empire huh.]

  [Yeah, we Wingeds are a species that does not like being held down by the ground. We prefer to live on the tops of peaks soaring towering up to the skies.]

  [In other words, you live in the high mountains huh.]

  [Indeed. However, our freedom comes with a price. Us Wingeds are rather enclosed, and we do not have much interaction with other species. Well, that doesn’t mean we held no interaction at all……]

  Having become accustomed to conversing with her up to this point, I was able to somewhat guess what Amel-san was trying to say.

  In the first place, it’s only that difficult phrases sometimes come out, and I can somehow guess what she meant from the flow of our conversation and the nuances of how she said it.

  [Sworn friend, you live in Symphonia’s royal capital, yes?]

  [Yes, I have a house in the Central Area, so if you have the chance, please come and visit.]

  [Unnn! I’ll go, I’ll go! ……Erhem. With my sworn friend inviting me, there’s no way I’m not going to accept.]

  Also, I’m changing the subject, I can somehow guess what times Amel-san’s true personality comes out. When Amel-san’s tension gets very high, when she’s confused by words she didn’t expect, or when she’s anxious about something…… Her personality generally returns to her true one in those three times.

  While I was enjoying our conversation with these thoughts in mind, Amel-san’s eyes suddenly started scurrying around, looking slightly anxious.

  As I tilted my head and wondered if something happened, Amel-san looked as if she had made up her mind and her expression turned serious, and pulled out what seemed to be an accessory with a black feather on it from her pocket and held it out to me.

  [……This is?]

  [You could say it’s an emblem of the bond between sworn friend and I. Please accept it.]

  [……Thank you very much. By any chance, is this Amel-san’s feather?]

  [Yeah, giving an ornament made of one’s own feather is the greatest sign of trust for us Wingeds.]

  Seriously, I have no clue why her Affection Meters had risen so much in such a short time that she handed me a symbol of their greatest trust…… but it would be impolite to refuse the feather ornament that she was about to give me, so I accepted it.

  [Thank you for the great gift.]

  [Fuuu, no…… It’s a small gift considering the eternal friendship between my sworn friend and I. I may not have fully recovered my memories of the long time we were together before this life, but that does not diminish the friendship between you and I.]

  ……Errr, from how she speaks about that eternal friendship, I feel like she’s talking about some kind of distant past to the future. Also, that long times we were together before this life and how she hasn’t completely regained her memory…… With Amel-san’s chuunish behavior and how she called me her sworn friend……


  Is it just my imagination? Was she thinking as if we’re best friends in our previous life or something like that?

  How should I say this…… Even if I really had a previous life, I don’t think I would be born in this world, so I don’t think there would be any chance that I’d get acquainted with Amel-san’s previous life.

  Though I say that, it would be pointless to nitpick about such things. Rather, if Amel-san is okay with it, I think it’s fine.

  [……I see, we may have firmly pledged something to each other in our previous life.]

  [ ! ? My sworn friend……]

  Whoa, she looks absurdly happy. Even her eyes looked like they’re glittering…… It looked as if she was thinking “I knew that was the case”.

  Responding with that may have been a mistake. As for her words and actions earlier regarding previous lives, I have a feeling that Amel-san herself thought it was an absurd story.

  I see, that’s why she had an anxious look on her face before she gave me that feather ornament……


  However, now that I have said something that affirms her thoughts regarding previous lives, it feels like she was convinced that I was thinking the same thing as Amel-san and that our fates are connected even back in our previous lives.

  The correct response here would have been a slightly vague response like “If that’s what Amel-san says, I guess that might be so”.

  It seemed that Amel-san’s already high Affection Meters had been further increased by my careless comment, as she pulled her chair up next to mine, so close that our shoulders are almost touching, and told me with an expression that doesn’t hide her excitement at all.

  [My sworn friend, oh my sworn friend! Crossing through time, we ‘ve met like this. Let’s talk about more things, I want to know more about my current sworn friend!]

  [Ah, yes……]

  The tension is so high that the expression on her face is one of maximum happiness, and I even feel like I saw the vision of a dog behind her wagging its tail so fast that it was about to come off.

  Although I’m just reaping what I had sown, I don’t feel like this is something we could talk about for a while, so I just responded to Amel-san who was vigorously asking me various questions.

  【The first character rough drafts for Volume 13 have been released in Activity Report】


  Serious-senpai : [The result of making a mistake in the conversation is an explosion of her Affection Meters? Somebody, do something about this Flag King already……]

  v168 - 1 Million Page Views Commemoration: "What if" Extra ~ Isis Remnant ~

  {Author’s Note}

  I was very happy to reach 1,000,000 page views, so as a special extra chapter, I’ll be posting the story of the heroines that arrived until this chapter.

  There are 5 stories in total, and the order will be Kuromueina ? Isis ? Sieglinde ? Lilia ? Alice.

  This time’s chapter is dedicated to our precious harbinger of death, Isis.

  **********

  Still feeling drowsy that morning, I felt my body being gently rocked.

  I feel like I’m being slowly rocked on a cradle, and as my consciousness slowly awakens, I feel a soft touch on my cheek just before I completely wake up.

  [……Kaito…… It’s morning……]

  [Hnnn…… Isis-san? Good morning.]

  Feeling the touch of her kiss on my cheek, I felt happiness as I opened my eyes, seeing Isis-san’s face with a gentle smile on her lips.

  [……Good morning…… Breakfast…… is ready.]

  [Thank you. I’ll get up now.]

  [……Unnn.]

  Hearing her sweet and gentle voice, I sit up and look at Isis-san.

  Isis-san has her long hair in a ponytail and is wearing a white ruffled apron, adding a homely vibe to her usual cuteness, making her even more attractive than usual.

  After thanking Isis-san for waking me up, I went to the bathroom to wash my face before heading to the kitchen.

  Thereupon, Isis-san is waiting for me, along with a simple but very tasty looking breakfast on the table that she had prepared.

  After saying our thanks for the food we are about to eat at the dining table today, we began to eat our food, and the gentle flavors of the food slowly seeped into my body as I woke up from sleep.

  It’s already half a year since we came back to my world, and Isis-san’s cooking skills have been improving, making me look forward to eating these days.

  [Ah, that’s right, Isis-san. Would you like to go to the amusement park with me today?]

  [……Amusement park?]

  [Yes. Errr, how should I say this…… It’s like a place filled with playground equipment.]

  [……That…… sounds like fun…… but……]

  Hearing my words as we ate, Isis-san glanced at me with a confused expression on her face and moved her gaze.

  Her gaze led to the TV in the living room with a not so serious news program, but a slightly occult program instead, showing a content that seems to be some sort of seven wonders within our city.

  And on the program’s title card placed on the bottom of the screen, the segment was titled “Bizarre! The Diagonal Crossing Engulfed in Silence!”.

  The content of the show is about an incident that actually happened two months ago…… where people disappeared from a crowded diagonal crossing in the middle of the day.

  Incidentally, it seems that all the people who were there said “I don’t know why, but I felt like I was going to die when I was there”……


  Yep. It was actually because of…… Isis-san.

  Two months ago, Isis-san and I were out shopping for clothes when we passed through that diagonal crossing.

  The power of Isis-san’s magic power of death is just as effective in this world as it is in that world but…… If Isis-san is in a good mood, its power is weakened.

  To be more specific, if Isis-san is truly happy, the effect of her magic power of death will weaken to the extent that it would only frighten others who are a bit distant from her.

  So, it wasn’t a problem at first. Even when she was doing stuff like waiting for the traffic light to change colors, the other people would instinctively keep a distance away from her to keep themselves from being uncomfortable…… However, that happened exactly because Isis-san’s magic power of death had weakened.

  Isis-san is a ridiculously beautiful girl, and she’s naturally quite the eye-catcher…… In a sense, it was inevitable that those who were in a position where the influence of her magic power of death couldn’t reach would have their eyes attention stolen away by Isis-san.

  And that’s when a little group of delinquent-ish described me, the one who was holding hands with Isis-san as a “dull fellow”.

  I’m well aware that I’m quite dull compared to Isis-san’s good looks, and I wasn’t particularly concerned about it on my part but…… When she recognized it as me, being treated like a fool, Isis-san got angry and her magic power of death intensely spread out…… And at that moment, the people in the surrounding area began fleeing like scattering spiderlings.

  Immediately noticing that they were running, I also started running away with the people holding Isis-san’s hand, but I didn’t notice that Isis-san was the cause so…… Isis-san is terribly concerned about what happened to me, and that she got me in trouble.

  [……I will…… get Kaito in trouble…… again.]

  [I don’t think that’s a bother at all. It’s nothing compared to the happiness of being able to go on a date with Isis-san.]

  [……Kaito.]

  [And you see, if Isis-san is happy, your magic power of death is weakened…… As long as I can make Isis-san happy all day long, there shouldn’t be any problem, right?]

  [……Unnn.]

  Telling her my heartfelt thoughts with a smile on my face, Isis-san happily smiled.

  Moreover, to begin with, rather than being a bother…… Even the fact that I’m able to live alone with Isis-san like this, thanks to the jewels she brought to this world, I feel like I’m the one indebted to her instead.

  After breakfast, we departed by car and arrived at the amusement park just before it opened.

  It should have been a weekday today, but the place was surprisingly crowded with people.

  While entwining my fingers with Isis-san…… the so-called “holding hands with fingers interlocked”, I bought our tickets and entered the park.

  [……Amazing…… It’s so big.]

  [Yes, this is quite the famous amusement park…… Now then, Isis-san. Where shall we start?]

  [……Errr.]

  Holding out the pamphlet so that Isis-san, who was surprised after seeing the amusement park for the first time, could see it, I asked her where to start.

  As usual, people don’t come close to the 1-meter perimeter, but even as a weekday, the place is fairly busy…… So being in this situation isn’t strange.

  [……Oi, that girl is really cute.]

  [You’re right~~ It’s like she’s a doll!]

  [A foreigner? Is that fellow her boyfriend? He doesn’t look too gre——-!?]

  The moment a group of several men and women noticed us and we overheard such a conversation……. I sensed Isis-san’s mood get a little bad.

  The moment I thought it would turn bad, I strongly pulled Isis-san’s body with the hand holding hers, and holding her body within my embrace, I stole her lips.

  [Hnn!?]

  Feeling Isis-san’s soft and sweet lips, her beautiful red eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly closed them and leaned her body against me.

  After enjoying that few seconds of happiness, as if the two of us were the only people in the world, I let go of her lips.

  [……Fuaahh…… Kaito?]

  [Isis-san, please don’t worry about what the other people think…… Today, right now, don’t think about anyone else…… Please only look at me! Please only think of me!]

  To be honest, saying this line feels very embarrassing, especially since we were now obviously attracting lots of attention and high-pitched squeals from people around us.

  However, in order to enjoy today’s date with Isis-san, I have to make sure that she’s happy all day long…… To achieve that, this level of shame is cheap.

  Hearing my words I told her while looking straight into her eyes, Isis-san nodded, her eyes became a bit moist and her cheeks dyed red.

  [……Unnn…… I will only…… look at Kaito.]

  Hugging Isis-san’s body tightly as she adorably told me that, we decided to stop being the other people’s attraction and start heading towards the attractions of the place itself, keeping our bodies even closer than before.

  I knew it was the right choice to go on a weekday, as we didn’t have to wait in line for any of the attractions, and we were able to smoothly enjoy them.

  While we went around riding the coffee cup, merry-go-round, roller coaster and other standard attractions, Isis-san had a really happy smile on her face and was hugging my arm tightly.

  [……Kaito…… It’s really…… fun…… I’m really…… happy.]

  [I’m also having fun and happy because Isis-san is here with me.]

  [……Unnn!]

  Since the fact that this is an amusement park originally filled with couples and families, I’m glad that it hasn’t developed into a bone-chilling situation since the first incident.

  Of course, Isis-san’s appearance is eye-catching, but because of the fact that she’s flirting a lot with me, we didn’t hear anyone voicing out any disparaging comments towards me.

  Riding attractions one after another, when the park was beginning to turn reddish-blue in the evening, I decided to ride the Ferris wheel with Isis-san.

  Being a famous amusement park, they also have a very big Ferris wheel…… Walking into the gondola with Isis-san, we sit next to each other.

  [……It’s really…… beautiful.]

  [They have a really great view of the area.]

  Seeing Isis full of admiration for the beautiful scenery that can be seen from the Ferris wheel with a smile on her, I smiled too.

  Isis-san stares at the scenery with sparkling eyes for a little while, then slowly leans back against me.

  [……Kaito….. Thank you…… I’ve never been…… this happy before.]

  [……Isis-san.]

  Hugging Isis-san’s small shoulders as she leans on me, we stare at each other as she happily smiles.

  Isis-san’s beautiful red eyes that only reflect my face naturally close in and as if they were drawn together, our shadows overlap with each other.

  [……Hnnn….. Chuu…… Nuahh…… Chuuu…… Kaito…… Hnnn…… I love you…… I love you so much.]

  [……Isis-san, I love you too.]

  [……Kaito…… always…… be with me.]

  [Yes. I will always be by your side.]

  As if to confirm each other, imprinting our souls so that those words become definite, our bodies are close together, without even space between them, exchanging our warmth.

  I don’t know how much more time we have more before this gondola returns back to the ground…… but until then, I only want to think about my beloved Isis-san.

  [……Kaito….. I love you so much…… that I’ve always been afraid…… that all that happened is just a dream…… Kaito…… I love you so much…… that I don’t feel like my love will ever end…… and I feel…… that I will love you…… Kaito….. even more than before.]

  [……Isis-san. It’s the same with me. Isis-san, I fell in love with you, over and over again…… I love you.]

  […… I also…… love you.]

  (T/N: D*mn japs and their different ways of saying love! I’ll never forgive the Japanese! Anyway, Kaito first said “suki”, then the second love is “aishiteru”, which is only said when you’re really serious about it afaik. Isis also replies with the same aishiteru.)

  It really is quite an impossibly blessed miracle that I met Isis-san.

  Your magic power of death, even if it has a tendency to keep others at a distance…… I will never let go of you, Isis-san.

  I’m sure that the little warmth I have in my arms right now is what makes me happy…… and I’m sure that the future we’re going to be walking through with Isis-san by my side……. will also be a happy one.
