“Over here, Taiyou-chan . ”
With Hera’s guidance, Taiyou and Akiha went into the estate . As they did so, several burly men came out to attack them, but they defeated them without difficulty before progressing .
“Wow, they’re putting up a lot of resistance here!”
“No, it’s more of a show than anything . Feels like they’re pretending to have difficulty with us so that they don’t have to put up a fight and get beat . ”
“Really? Seems to me like they’re serious, but okay . ”
Akiha said as she looked back at the people who had been felled by just one punch .
“I think so too . You probably just became too strong to where they feel weak . ”
“Agreed . ”
“You think so?”
Taiyou nodded in a delayed manner . Sure, they said that, but he didn’t really feel that way . The reason why he didn’t feel any stronger was probably because Ruri, the person he aspired toward, was beginning to leave him behind again . Since he couldn’t win against her, he felt weak . Sure, from an objective viewpoint, that was totally false . As he was right now, Taiyou had far surpassed any human, considered a “monster” by any reasonable person .
“Well, who even cares . Not like it’ll change our objective here . ”
“Ah, true enough . ”
After having made up his mind in the afternoon, Taiyou had remembered something .
It was a great idea to gather all his brides and have a lovey dovey time together, but at this rate, there would be one empty seat: Youran, who had been hiding her whereabouts as of late . She wouldn’t come back home, in addition to cutting off contact with Taiyou . If she wasn’t there, they couldn’t truly have “everyone” assembled . Hence why Taiyou had come to bring her back .
Following Hera, they had arrived at the Juunishima Daimyo Mansion in Seikaen Town . This was the place where he had once infiltrated with Ruri in order to save the three sisters .
He had initially sought to go in by himself, but this time around, Akiha wanted to accompany him for whatever reason .
“…”
“Wazzup?”
Akiha tilted her head, noticing Taiyou looking at her .
“No, just thought it was interesting that you came along . ”
“Well yeah, don’t you remember? I’ll be the one who cleans ‘em up! It’d be silly if I didn’t mean what I said . ”
“Oh, so you meant it…no, you always do mean what you say . ”
“‘Course!”
Akiha made a peace sign with a wide smile .
“No point announcing what you aren’t going to do, right?”
“You didn’t mean to say ‘I’ll go through with what I say I’ll do’?”
“No, no . I wanna do it, so I announce it . ”
“As expected of you, Aki-han! What a worthy bride for Taiyou-chan . ”
“Now, that way of speaking about it is also quite questionable, in my opinion . ”
Taiyou continued through the mansion alongside Akiha . Some of their opponents would overhear their conversation and attempt to assail them, and Taiyou would give them a sloppy beating so that some of them would go for Akiha, who did not recoil but instead defeated them with well-developed movements (for a human, at least) .
“That move just now was one of Ruri’s, right?”
“Oh, you figured it out?”
Akiha laughed elatedly .
“Yeah, you step in a half circle around to your opponent’s back and attack them once in an unguarded area . Ruri would always do that when she was even remotely serious . ”
“Does she even need to do this when she’s as fast as that?”
“Actually, I would say it’s precisely because of her speed . Moves like that tend to be more effective the more power and speed you have . It’s like the difference between a kid and an adult in doing a locking technique- quite a bit of power involved . ”
“That does make sense, yeah . ”
They continued walking, finally reaching the end, where they were met with a splendid-looking door .
“Hera . ”
“Yes indeed!”
Hera entered the room through the wall before coming right back out .
“Yes, she’s here . Yuri-chan is inside . ”
“Alright, let’s go . ”
Taiyou pushed the door down, entering the room with Akiha and Hera .
It was a wide room that resembled the kind you’d see in a historical play, like a shogun’s room . Excessively spacious, with tatami mats spread across the entire thing . There was an expensive-looking bamboo screen hanging down where the seat of honor was .
Beyond the bamboo was the silhouette of a girl with long hair .
“Sup, it’s been a while eh?”
“…”
Youran did not respond . Taiyou could sense that she was hesitating quite a bit .
“It has indeed been a while, Yuri-chan!”
“Been well, you little truant?”
Hera and Akiha said jovially .
Hera was the same as always, but Taiyou could tell that there was a trace of impishness in Akiha’s tone . She didn’t have ill intent, but Taiyou could tell she wanted to tease her a bit .
“What do you need me for?”
“I came to get you . Everyone’s hanging out tonight, so come over . ”
“But I…”
“Who cares?”
Taiyou barged in, throwing open the bamboo sheet, revealing Youran with a very distressed face .
“Come home . ”
“But I…have something I…want to…”
“Then get it done fast . ”
“Huh?”
Surprised, Youran raised up her slumped face .
“I won’t ask what you’re trying to do . I won’t even ask what you intend to do from now on . That’s irrelevant . ”
“Irrele…vant?”
“Just come back here after we do some flirting tonight . ”
Taiyou said assertively .
Youran was taken aback, while Akiha burst out laughing .
