Ruri was the last one standing . She was quite literally standing for a long time by herself .
“As expected of you, Ruri-chan . You have the strength of a hundred . ”
“It was like every time we got back up, there were more of her…were we really beaten that badly?”
Akiha asked as she threw out her feet . She was the weakest of them all, but she constantly challenged Ruri at close combat, actually getting defeated the most, her clothes tattering .
“In that case, you should say Ruri cuts down a hundred or a thousand people . It indeed sounds cooler . ”
“Right . ”
“Are you all right, Kohaku-san?”
“Aye…nothing crazy, ja . ”
Taiyou hugged Kohaku’s shoulders, peeking his head through .
Kohaku didn’t have any visible injuries, but she was the most exhausted out of everyone here .
Her young face was pale, and it felt like her eyes were sunken in .
It was clear that this was due to the aftereffects of overusing the dagger of blood and soul .
“You’re clearly not fine . This is just…I’m sorry for not realizing what was happening . I was distracted . ”
“Aye, ye were pretty absorbed, ja…”
“Sorry . ”
“I would’ve expected a ‘thank you’ from ye, Dannsama, but wow, never thought I’d hear a ‘sorry’…”
Kohaku teased him in a weak voice .
Taiyou was surprised . He had realized something .
The next moment, he took a deep breath, changing his facial expression .
And then he smiled and looked at Kohaku .
“Thank you very much, Kohaku-san . And I’d like to apologize for what I just said . Sorry again . ”

“Dannsama . ”
“Yes . ”
“I love ye . ”
“No . ”
He shook his head with a serious face, surprising Kohaku .
“I love you way more . ”
“…No, Dannsama, I cannot yield even to ye in this regard . I love ye more, ja . ”
“No, I do . ”
“Then how about we call it a tie with you two and say I win . ”
Akiha joined in . She said it jokingly, but she probably thought it would be her loss to sit out on the topic of love .
“Unfortunately, it be impossible for ye to love him the most . Plus ye got Aoba too, ja . ”
“Whaaat, so you’re saying just cause I like Aoba too I can’t love him the most? Then Taiyou definitely can’t love you more . ”
“Dannsama’s on a whole other plain, ja . Simply increasing the people he likes won’t split up the love, ja . ”
“Kohaku-tan’s weakened, indeed . She’s so weak right now that she doesn’t realize her contradictions, indeed . ”
As Hera said that, Ruri walked over silently from where she was .
“Are you…alright?”
Her tone was now back to what it had been as of late . She had an apologetic look on her face .
“Fear not . Ye held back good enough to prevent anything bad from happening . Plus…”
“Plus…what?”
“Now that I’m like this, I get to have Dannsama nurse me back to health, ja . ”
“Ahhh, that makes me envious . ”
“Mhm…envious . ”
Akiha and Ruri spoke almost at the same time .

Taiyou made a small wry smile as he held Kohaku .
“Let me just say that I don’t make you envious on purpose . ”
Taiyou clarified, but he still didn’t try to move his hands away from Kohaku . She wasn’t hurt at all, but he understood that Kohaku was too weakened to walk by herself .
He had made sure to clarify beforehand so that they wouldn’t misunderstand .
“Alright, I think we can return now . ”
“You are returning?”
“Yep . ”
“That’s fine, but Taiyou-chan, wouldn’t it be best to confirm if it was a success or not? You could still keep holding Kohaku-tan . ”
“Confirm?”
“Yes indeed . ”
Hera nodded .
Taiyou briefly looked at her, then shook his head in disagreement .
“W-Why the reluctance?”
“Well, look…”
“Aye, well, I’m sure that she doesn’t realize it herself, ja . ”
“You too, Kohaku-tan?”
“Dummy, you dummy . ”
“I’m what now!?”
“Then…a foolish commoner?”
“Now I’m pretty sure I’m hearing straight up insults!?”
Following Taiyou, the other brides all let Hera have it .
Hera wasn’t sure why they were saying such things .
Taiyou took another sigh before speaking .

“You know you were called over by Youran and the others already, right?”
“Yes indeed . Everyone is horrible for calling me over and then suddenly leaving me hanging . ”
“…And you still don’t realize what happened?”
“Realize what?”
“C’mon, you couldn’t go through the wall earlier . ”
“…Ohhh!”
After a bit, Hera clapped her hands together as if being suddenly enlightened .
“Yes, now it makes sense, indeed . I couldn’t take out my rage on any of them because I couldn’t go through the wall—-wait, what? Why could I not go through the wall?”
Hera looked at the wall, cocking her head .
“Isn’t it cuz she can touch it now?”
“Can touch it…”
“Do I have to spell it out for ya? The wall became something you could touch . So it’s a success . ”
“…Ohhh!”
Hera reacted the same as earlier .
“Did you…seriously not realize that?”
“Well, I guess that’s sort of to be expected with her?”
“Exactly . ”
The door opened, and Youran and the others filed in .
The brides who weren’t able to participate in the fight also entered the room, and now the entire Taiyou household was together .
“Master, leave the rest to me . ”
“Okay, gotcha . ”
“Please rest now, everyone . We have rooms and every necessity all gathered for you . ”

Sakura said .
“And you guys?”
“We will be…”
“Going to…”
“Begin discussing Herchan’s clothing with her . ”
“Kay . ”
Akiha nodded .
Leaving Hera there, Taiyou and the members who had fought in the battle left the room .
Sakura’s subordinates had been waiting outside, and they led them to the rooms they would be staying in .
Taiyou entered, supporting Kohaku .
“Alright, good night . ”
“Good…night . ”
Akiha and Ruri said to him .
Taiyou turned back, his eyes slightly widened as he spoke,
“What are you saying? You guys are coming in too . ”
“Eh, but…”
Akiha said, looking at Kohaku .
Taiyou grasped her chin, kissing her .
“Just come in . ”
He said .
“O-Okay…”
Akiha’s face went red as she followed Taiyou into the room…
And there was Ruri, somehow ahead of them, gazing at Taiyou with excited eyes .
