"I really get what you awara Taeko was h "hou" Yuuka smiled wryly toward her two best friends that didn't even hide their longing while staring at the de into the forest to chase after the vanishing Yue and Hajime before she opened her mouth

"How should I put it, Kaori-chan and Shizuku who stepped into that relationship, and then Ai-chan who got over various things, they are au-sama"

"Haa haa, Hajio to the hospital together e go hoet your head looked at"

The conversations of the girl class that envied Haji their praise at Kaori and others who entered the hare that the harem already did it Actually, quite a nu that if Hajime asked for the for theh

"Suzu is not going after the so suddenly, Ryutaro-kun?"

Suzu was staring at the progression of the co, to such Suzu, Ryutaro as at her side asked her that for soh to say "Just what is this person talking about?"

"…No, if you ain't going then that's fine See, your inside is a perverted old et carried away saying '"

"…Oi, are you calling rity, you bastard I wonder, do I actually need to have a talk with Ryutaro-kun regarding your impression of me?"

"No, because, you see, funda for a fight right? You want to fight aren't you? I'll let you eat to your heart's content you know, this evolved Barrier Burst ofhis honest opinion, hearing that a vein appeared on Suzu's forehead while her hand reached toward her restored iron fan Looking at that, Kouki rushed in panic to stop her

"Su, Suzu Cal bad hat he said, rather――"

"Kouki-kun shut up This otten the concept of delicacy inside her et talked strictly with at least once!"

Suzu cut off Kouki's words and howled fiercely However, if Suzu talked about him until that far, then it would make Ryutaro wanted to at least object

"Oy you! I don't want to be told that I get no delicacy or whatever by the girl anted to go peeking at the bedrooht! You yourself, you actually had throay this thing called a woman's shame at the roadside around there ain't you?"

"Tha, that's, because! I just got bothered! This is the love affair of one-sama and others you know!? It will be a loss of your life if we don't burn that scene into our eyes at least once you know!?"

"Who give a damn! Besides, if you want to see it that ot woken up at night and got taken along to peep!"

"That was ood Ryutaro-kun! Understand that!"

"Don't bullshit! Soe, to peek at the ero scene of the class aard! Or rather I don't get what you yaa The surrounding sent lukewaraze at the tho recently caused this kind of spectacle relatively often And then, the gazes toward Kouki as completely flustered around the tas also lukewar charisone, in this one month, Kouki had earnestly lowered his head to everyone and his foraze of the surrounding to him was still cold, filled ariness and suspicion Kouki who had resolved hi those emotions silently

His expression was constantly hard, sret The classmates who knew the former Kouki who always helped people without distinction, although at first they held suspicion at Kouki who betrayed the Shizuku and others who had staked their lives to take hi who si at Kouki who felt e himself, caused the classmates to try to accept him for the moment

Kouki who lost his former s a slightly soft expression even while looking flustered, seeing that expression h they had lost a lot of things, but so fro back for a little bit, they felt such feeling from that expression

With the commotion of Ryutaro and Suzu as the center, coupled with the confiro hoht expression

The smiles of them who knew firsthand that in life, there were tiht with their life on the line…were really powerful

Now then, if it was asked where were Hajime and Yue who teleported went…currently both of thereat tree Hajime asked for a place where no one would intrude and also had a tasteful atnated place that fulfilled both conditions

Hajiirl ers interlocked with each other, the two of thereat tree

The weather today was clear, sunlight brightly poured down through the trees in this place where ic"

"…Nn? Understood"

If the entrance to the great labyrinth was closed, then the great tree would return into a dead tree Presently, the great tree in front of their eyes ithered If regeneration reen color Yue understood that, but she didn't understand why it was necessary when they had no plan to enter inside

Yue tilted her head with slight doubt, but she so to see a ic

Instantly the great tree was overfloith green while eh the branches and leaves were creating several angel’s ladders If the tranquil atreat tree that could be associated with the world tree Yggdrasil inbeautiful that was even more fantastical, or even mystical

Hajime nodded in satisfaction before he took Yue's hand and led her to the base of the great tree And then, like that he sat down and put Yue on his lap It was a posture where he was ely on Haji each other's warmth and pulse for a while, they tasted the silence The sound of leaves rustling that was audible sometimes and the breeze that caressed the skin felt pleasant

Before long, after enjoying the nature enough to their heart's content, Haji into Yue's ear

"Yue"

"…H to show?"

"Yeah Actually, this is so iot postponed until the end like this Sorry"

"…? I don't really understand but, if Hajiht time, then that's fine"

Hajime's eyes softened at Yue who looked up from his chest to stare at hiolden threads that rustled in the hile taking out an artifact

That was a se recording artifact that he discovered at the sealing roohtly and lifted the artifact forward before activating it The artifact shined, and suddenly an i the person that appeared there, Yue opened her eyes wide in shock and thened his ar Yue It was unclear whether it was unconsciously or consciously, but Yue was also gripping tightly the hands of Hajime around her waist

In front of those two, the person in the i――Yue's uncle, Denreed Gardia Wesperitirio Avatar slowly began to talk

{…Aleytia Long ti I think that you are surely hating h at all What I did……aa, that's not it This is not what I want to say Even though I have been thinking of various things, now that the time has come to leavea self-depreciating wry s his throat

{That's right First let ht now on your side there should be so from the bottom of your heart At the very least, that person ic and able to challenge the true Orkus, a person who didn't abandon you frouardian that I prepared and rescued you}

Hajih to listen to those words, or possibly to lament the departed

{…You You there who is close to my beloved niece I wonder if you are male? Or else are you female? For Aleytia, what kind of existence are you? Are you her lover? Are you her friend? Or do you becoize that I cannot meet you directly to say my thanks, but I still want to say it noclose to her, thank you I offer you ratitude in my whole lifetime}

Yue didn't even twitch What Hajiolden threads that were sparkling froht

{Aleytia Surelyinside your chest Or else, perhaps you have already know the truth Just why, that day, I hurt you, and buried you inside that bottom of darkness? What kind of existence are you, and who is your true enemy?}

The story that was talked from there was the facts that they already knew and speculation that didn't miss from the truth

Namely, that Yue was born as a miko (TN: Usually miko is a shrine od child), and she was aimed by Ehitorujue Denreed who noticed that pretended to kill Yue in his coup d'etat with the disguise that he was blinded by greed, he then sealed her in the abyss, the room where she was sealed itself was a hidden place that could fool even the god The sealing of Yue was also a bitter choice for him so that her presence couldn't be possibly detected even for a bit

{I was hesitating whether to tell you the truth or not until just before that day But, for the sake of deceiving those guys with certainty, I judged that I shouldn't tell you I also thought that if you hate me, then that would be a motivation for you to live}

Surely Denreed also couldn't stay for long in the sealing roo to kill Yue at the palace, there was no doubt that there was also no time for him to talk with her

Just how filled with bitterness that choice that heat the other side of the ie that I had hurt you I won't say anything like your forgiveness after this late However, I want you to please believe only this I want you to know this}

Denreed's expression changed fro That look was overfloith gentleness and kindness, at the same time, it was also filled with a hopeless sadness

{I love you, Aleytia I love you froht of you as bothersohter}

"…Oji, saht of you like a father That feeling was flowing down along with the tears that traced through her cheek, unable to for Haji

{I'm sorry that I couldn't protect you I' but to entrust you to someone in the future I's-"

What was in front of their eyes was a recording of the past It was nothingwas irrelevant Yue couldn't help but yell noat the corner of Denreed's eyes But, he didn't let that flow by any htly, he spun words toward his beloved daughter with all his heart

{I wanted to be at your side, seeing your figure when you grasped your own happiness so at your side once And then, after that, I wanted to exchange sake with hihter" It was the partner that Aleytia chose Surely, he would make a fir at far away as though seeing a dreaht be the Yue of the past at the direction of his gaze

{It will be the tis that I want to talk, various things that I want to convey but…with ree}

"…no-, I don't wanna- Oji-sa, Otou-sa li, to that Yue reached her hand while crying Her uncle, no, her father's deep and deep affection, and that tragically tough resolve fiercely shook Yue's heart, indescribable feelings were overflowing out

Hajihter

{I cannot be on your side anymore, but even if this life is about to run out I'll continue to pray Aleytia My beloved daughter I wish for infinite happiness to shower above your head For you to walk a path that is warht}

"…Otou-saaze wandered Surely that was because he was i close with Yue

{To you who is very close with hter It doesn't matter what kind of shape it is Make that child, to be the happiest girl in the world Please, I beg you}

"…Naturally I swear it with my life"

There was no way Hajime's words reached hi in satisfaction Surely he was convinced of how the person in the future who listened to his words would answer In various senses, he was a preposterous person Perhaps it was just as expected froureaway…

Yue and Haji to each other so close that they wouldn't separate no ht ahead, there the last words of Denreed resounded

{…Sayonara, Aleytia I wish that the whole world that is surrounding you, to be filled with happiness}

Inside the deep forest, a crying voice was echoing

It contained sadness However, that was not all there was to it, it was a voice that was choked arently enveloped Haji to Hajime's chest There she vented her e ti, Yue quietly lifted her face that ith tears Hajiently wiped on those cheeks

"Yue"

"…Nn"

While holding Yue's cheeks, Hajiaze that was filled with love and resolves

"I, am the happiest man in the world The proof of that, is inside ht now"

"…Nn Then, I too, is the happiest woman in the world The proof of that, is how I'ht now"

In a distance where their lips could touch anyti each other's breath, the two of them stared at each other It felt funny for so like that, Haji There was no special ability that was enchanted in it If he had to say as special about it, then it was a staggeringly tough ring, that was it

That ring which was glittering brightly froht, was stared by Yue whose eyes were sihtly

"…nn Proposal?"

Once, those words were said jokingly when Hajiht stone series in the Orkus Great Labyrinth At that tiht"

"…u"

This tiaze was seriously conveying his feeling to her As expected, Yue got shy and couldn't even say her usual "…nn" Her cheeks were already bright red like an apple

"At Japan, the custohter] to the partner's father That's why, I thought to say it in this place where Yue realized the true feeling of your father"

"…Nnu"

Because the one these words should be said to have gone, Haji of you, give it to me from here on until the future ahead too"

"…au"

Yue writhed

Things like a reply or whatever, were obviously decided already

A flower bloomed The loveliest flower in this world If there was a flower language for it, then thewould be unquestionably 'happiness'

Yue answered, along with a s in full

"…Nn-!!"

The ring that indicated eternity was fitted into the ring finger of the left hand that Yue presented forward There was oneThis tier

They showed the ring to each other, and then, they chuckled together

After a while, Yue floated a s Haji that in this kind of time is problematic"

"…Give it to Shia next"

"That's why, enjoy the afterglow a bitthat…"

Haji ser Like that Yue directed her gaze to the beyond

Hajiht of Shia and others running from inside the sea of trees It appeared that Yue made such question because she noticed their presences

"…Fufu If it's Hajiether"

"If looked with coh"

"…Co-sama Besides, no matter what shape it is, if the people themselves are happy then there is no problem"

"Well, I have determined and resolved myself so I have no hesitation anyway Everyone, is mine"

"…Nn That's my Hajime But…"

Yue's eyes shined

And then,

"…I won't hand over the 'special' position"

Saying that, Yue seized Hajime's lips

From afar, with Shia, Tio, Kaori, Shizuku, Myuu, Reathering one after another The quiet and mystical place immediately becaht was filled with the lovely vairls at the other side and thought…

(Now then, when I introduced to Tou-san and Kaa-san, that everyone is my wives, ill happen huh…)

It seemed doubtless that even in Japan, Hajime would be in a whirlpool of tur of those Crushing irrationality with irrationality, rewriting absurdity with absurdity, and if needed even fate would be destroyed, together with the 'precious' that he obtained in this world

While entle and also powerful sbut the talent of a co as the world's strongest, had the curtain lowered noith this

After returning to Japan, due to the turot spirited away, the wives probleend of Akihabara, etc, etc, it ithout saying that Hajih uncommon everyday filled with turmoil

Those stories, would be told at another chance someday…

The End
