Epilogue

The big water fountain reflected the light shining down from the cloudless sky. A soft breeze, filled with the scent from the nearby flowers, tickled Mikado’s skin. On the nearby benches were lovers confessing their feelings to each other, as he watched the nearby pigeons eat some popcorn that had fallen to the ground.

Barely last week, he had gone through a shoot-out at a distant mountain residence, so being able to sit here in peace felt like a lie to him. That being said, his heart was not peaceful in the slightest. Unable to calm down, he nervously checked if his hair was looking fine, as he cleaned his shoes one last time.

There, a scent sweeter than any honey came drifting towards him, as Kisa walked up to where he stood.

“My, Mikado, you were already here? I forgot that today was supposed to be our date, so I came late. I see you were looking forward to this date that much.” Kisa tried sounding indifferent, but Mikadohad already seen through her.

“…Weren’t you here pretty early yourself? You’ve been watching me from that cafe over there the entire time, right?”

“Wha…?!” Kisa blushed furiously.

“Considering the fact that you’ve been sitting in there, goggles in hand, before I even came here, you must have arrived much earlier than me. Were you looking forward to the date with me that much?” Mikado approached Kisa’s face, grinning in arrogance.

Kisa tightly grasped her handbag, taking half a step back.

“…I-I couldn’t help it, okay. This is the first time we went on a proper date…I was really worried in case I got the wrong place, or if you didn’t come.” Kisa muttered, tearing up.

“Ugh…!”

Even though he was the one to attack, Mikado felt his heart break into pieces at Kisa’s destructive reaction. Will he be able to survive until the end of the day?

“Um…is there some place you want to visit first?”

“The cat cafe of course!”

“Seems like you really took a liking to that.”

“We didn’t have time a while ago, so this is revenge!”

Kisa headed to the cat cafe on fast feet, but. Right as they arrived, they were greeted by a paper hung on the door that read ‘Closed for convenience’. Kisa kicked the door, brimming with rage.

“Convenience?!! What do they mean?! There is only one convenience you have to care about, and that is about me! Open up! If not, I’ll blow up this entire building!”

“Don’t blow it up!”

Kisa was about to take out an explosive like she would take out a handkerchief, only to be stopped by Mikado.

“Then let me waterboard them! They can taste the waves of dirty water down at the sewers!”

“So you were the one who did that?! If you really like me, then hold back a bit, will you!”

“I knew you wouldn’t die from something like that! That’s why I can do whatever I want!”

“You can’t! Throw away this level of trust right away!” Mikado pulled away Kisa from the door.

“Shaaaaaaa!!!”

Kisa used her long nails to scratch at the door like a real cat. And what a bad cat to deal with. As Mikado took responsibility to take Kisa away from the cafe, the girl sighed in disbelief.

“…Phew, seems like I got lost a bit there.”

“A bit…?”

“But, what should we do now? I was planning on sitting in the cat cafe for at least ten hours, so I don’t have any other plans…”

“Just how much do you like cat cafes now?”

Although it was the first spot Mikado had introduced her to, she sure had taken a liking to it. He was going to recommend adopting a cat, but he feared she might get buried under concrete depending on Kisa’s mood.

“What about the shrine then?”

“Shrine…? What meaning is there for a god to visit another god’s shrine?”

“You’re not a god, pull yourself together.”

“I am! I have judged myself to be a proper god!”

“You being serious scares me even more!”

Even if she was a god, she probably resembled more of a demon god.

“Also, what are we going to do at a shrine? Don’t you go there around New Year’s?”

“That’s…There’s a shrine around that gives blessings for a future together, so I thought of praying for the two of us.”

“Fuah…?! Prayers for easy childbirth?!”

“Too fast! It’s just for being normal lovers!” Mikado blushed as he corrected Kisa.

“W-Well, I’m happy about that, but…I think that the two of us have to take our future in our own two hands.”

“…You’re right about that.”

Being reasoned with flawless logic such as this, Mikado couldn’t say anything. Although she still kept her hostile attitude towards the rest of the word, she showed her affection to him in proper fashion. Even more than Mikado was, which was probably related to Kisa being a rather emotional person, whether it was in anger, sadness, or love.

“Then…what else do you want to do?”

“What about…taking a walk? Just talking with you, as we laugh and admire the scenery, is more enough for me.”

“U-Understood…”

This open affection of hers was almost too much for Mikado. The two walked down a shopping street, filled with couples. There were still countless problems waiting to be cleared up for the two, but just spending time like other couples would, Mikado felt satisfied.

Kisa’s fingers touched the back of Mikado’s hand. Waiting for a bit, she intertwined them with Mikado’s fingers, looking up at him, part worried, part demanding. Gulping audibly, Mikado took Kisa’s hand, who returned the grip. Just by holding hands with her, a sense of happiness ran up Mikado’s back, filling his heart with warmth.

As the two progressed through the shopping street, Kisa came to a halt in front of a variety store.

“That…let’s buy it.”

Being able to buy anything in the world she wanted, this was the first time Kisa voiced a request like that.

“What?”

“Rings. I want us to have paired rings.”

Kisa pointed at countless rings shown at the counter. Naturally, Mikado wasn’t as dense to not grasp her intentions with a present like this.

“Rings, huh…I could make better ones if you give me a bit more time.”

The rings directed at the general populace costed barely a thousand yen¹. Way too cheap for a Kitamikado man to present the girl of his dreams.

“The price doesn’t matter. On our first date, I want to receive my first present, and treasure it forever. I want you to prove to me that you will keep your promise of always fighting destiny with me.”

“…Understood. Which do you want?”

“Whichever you want, I’m fine.”

Putting definite proof into her words, Kisa gazed at Mikado. It was a heavy duty bestowed upon him. He had to pick the perfect pair of rings, so that the promise would never break.

Mikado looked around the wide arrangement of rings, troubled with a choice. Kisa didn’t rush him, and instead calmly watched over him, seeing how serious he was. After thinking and thinking and more thinking, Mikado eventually bought a pair. They separated from the shopping street, walked down an alley filled with trees, and took the rings out of the plastic bag.

Brimming with ocean-blue color, they had the form of a sun and moon engraved in them, symbolizing light and darkness of their two families who would now stay together forever. Kisa lifted her hand towards Mikado, who took it, and put the ring on her finger. Kisa did the same, and they both gazed into each other’s eyes.

“…I’ll definitely stay with you forever.”

“…Yeah, we’ll bring together both of our families.”

They exchanged a promise, not heard by anybody. The price of the love game was a cheap plastic ring. Yet, for the two, it was more valuable than anything else.

Kisa pointed the finger with the ring on it towards the sky.

“Hey…Am I cute?”

“Yes. Yes you are.”

“Ehehe…” Kisa smiled as her cheeks turned red.

Unable to hold himself back at this sight, Mikado gently embraced Kisa’s body.

“Can I ask for one more thing?”

“What is it?”

“As proof of your promise, can you kiss me?”

“Right here…?”

“You can’t…?”

Seeing Kisa’s pleading gaze like a puppy, Mikado couldn’t go against her. Even after the end of the love game, Mikado never saw himself winning against Kisa. Hence, he softly took both her cheeks into his hands, he put his lips on hers.

“Mm………” Kisa’s shoulders slightly shook.

Her tongue came dancing into Mikado’s mouth, entangling with his. After exchanging a long kiss, giving each other proof of their promise, they separated, gazing at each other with pure desire and lust.

“Mikado…”

“Kisa…”

They muttered both their names in a daze, when—

“Mikado-kuuuuun! Kiss me next!”

“Guha?!”

Hit by an impressive impact to his stomach, Mikado was sent flying. No, he wasn’t sent flying by an impact, he was thrown onto the ground as Mizuki jumped at him. Although she was just a middle school girl, Mikado had been careless, hit with the full force of her attack. After eventually landing on his back, Mizuki was riding on top of him, Mikado barely avoiding her approaching lips.

“Mizuki?! Since when were you here?!”

“From the very beginning! Since you worked so hard, I didn’t want to bother you during your date, so I just secretly followed you!”

“Then don’t bother us to the very end! And stop trying to rape Mikado!” Kisa grabbed her little sister by the neck, pulling her off Mikado.

Rinka came rushing towards them as well, fully out of breath, jumping at Kisa instead.

“If I kiss Kisa-san now, it means that I’ve kissed Mikado-sama…! So basically…!”

“What do you mean ‘basically’! It’s not the same! You won’t steal my lips!” Kisa dodged Rinka, and covered her mouth with her hands.

Kokage helped Mikado up from the ground…tightly grasping his hand.

“U-Um, Mikado-kun! Would you maybe come with me to visit planet Procyon?! We can save 80% right now! If we pay a bit more, we can make it our permanent residence!”

“Kawaraya-san?! I didn’t expect you to be an enemy!”

The romantic atmosphere had vanished elsewhere, as the usual chaos ensued. On top of that, it felt like the girls had fully stopped holding back.

“Mikado and I have achieved mutual love! We’re going out! So stop trying to take Mikado from me!”

“We’re going out?!” Mikado’s eyes opened wide.

“We’re not or something?! Wouldn’t you go out if you confess your love to each other?!”

“I mean, we never strictly said we were going out, and I thought we’d be waiting until we united both of our families…”

“I can’t wait until then! There’s lots of things I want to do!”

“Lots of things?!”

Having fully lost herself, the Kisa train didn’t stop.

“I mean, if you’re not going out, then it should be fine if I went on a date with Mikado-kun, right? Mikado-kun, let’s go to a hotel, I found something amazing online!”

“I will not allow you to take Mikado-sama all for yourself. Even if the two of you are going out…No, even if you are married, I can still be his mistress!” Rinka looked more convinced than ever.

“Ugh…” Met with this relentless attack of her rivals, Kisa was backed in a corner.

Maybe…rather than assimilating the two families, her rivals would pose a bigger problem?

“I definitely won’t hand over Mikado! He belongs to me and me alone!”

Kisa clung to Mikado’s arm, and started running.
