Ruri continuously cried in Taiyou’s arms. For once, the strongest swordswoman in the world was now behaving like a normal girl. The built-up emotions over the years burst from her like a broken dam. He patted her in his arms like he would a child.
She felt closer than ever before. After what felt like a long time, Ruri’s crying gradually faded to a calm demeanor.
“You alright?”
He whispered gently to her. Ruri’s mouth was shut tight, but she made a slight nod.
“Okay.”
Relieved, Taiyou finally relaxed his arms after all these hours. He felt it was finally okay to relax his grip now that she was okay.
But she did not separate from him. In fact, she clung to him, like a koala cub clinging to its parent.
“Ruri?”
He said puzzled, but she merely shook her head again. Unlike earlier, she legitimately did not wish to leave his side.
“You want to stay like this?”
Nod, nod.
“Okay. Want me to hug you too?”
“Just…leave it, to me.”
“Okay.”
Taiyou slowly fell back into the sofa, spreading his arms out as he rested against it. Ruri clung onto him as he was.
“Oh yeah.”
“Eh…?”
“Your sister called you by your real name, didn’t she?”
“Mhm…she did. A lot…happened.”
“Oh.”
“Want to…finish her?”
“Finish her? What do you mean!?”
Startled by this dangerous-sounding proposal, Taiyou raised his voice to the point where it cracked.
“The only one who knows my name…can just be you.”
“But you’re making too much of a big deal out of this. Besides, I want everyone else to know your name.”
“Everyone else…who?”
“Everyone.”
Taiyou raised a finger, spinning it around aimlessly. It was a gesture referring to every room.
“I want everyone here to know too.”
“Then…make an exception, for her?”
“Well, we can worry about that later. For now, let’s not go with the whole ‘finish her’ thing.”
“Mhm…if that’s what you want, Darling.”
“Yeah…wait, what?”
Ruri tilted her head, as if there were numerous question marks floating around her.
“Whaddya mean Darling?”
“Darling is…Darling.”
“You talking about…me?”
“Yes…my darling.”
“Well that’s another interesting thing you’ve thought up.”
“I didn’t want…the same as everyone else.”
“Makes sense.”
Taiyou made a small wry smile.
“True, that’s different than their nickna–wait.”
Taiyou remembered something.
“Yours does overlap with someone’s.”
“Overlap…with?”
“The name someone calls me. Hera, come out.”
“Jajajaan. Oho, you are indeed having a lovey-dovey time.”
The fairy was jovial as ever.
Taiyou looked at her with a serious face.
“What are you currently calling Youran?”
“You mean Yuri-chan?”
“Change it.”
“Eh, but why? She said to call her Yuri-chan because of her name Yurikago, right?”
“Just change it. We just can’t have ‘Yuri’.”
“Is that right? Well I suppose it’s fine if you say so, Taiyou-chan.”
“I don’t…mind, though.”
“Eh?”
“It’s fine…because she’s not the same Yuri.”
“You sure?”
Nod, nod.
“If I okayed something like that…it would become a massive bloodbath.”
“Well, true. How many Yuris are in this world? That would definitely not work.”
“Mhm…no worries.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m fine…as long as I have my darling.”
“Oho! That sounds kind of fantastic!”
“Okay.”
Taiyou nodded.
Hera asked a question.
“What if you disappear, Taiyou-chan?”
“If I disappear?”
“Yes indeed. What if Taiyou-chan dies or has a change of heart or gets run over by a truck and sent to another world? What then?”
“Then I…will end myself.”
“You too?!”
Taiyou raised his voice. Three of his six brides had already decided to end their lives if something happened to him. That was an unbelievable amount as it was.
“I have experienced too much alone…so if that happens I will be a good sport and go to the next world.”
“But that’s–”
“Taking…many lives with me.”
“Don’t say such scary things!”
Taiyou was pretty sure that it would be a dreadful thing if she took numerous lives with her.
“Taiyou-chan, you have quite the responsibility it seems.”
Hera grinned, clearly enjoying this. Taiyou made an exasperated expression as he swatted her down.
“Well all I have to do is outlive you. No issue with that right?”
“No, that is not enough, you know?”
“No, that is enough.”
Hera was perplexed, as shown by her face.
On the other hand, Ruri simply clung tight to Taiyou. Her eyes were moist as she looked up at him, but moist with tears of joy.
“Hmm, I wonder what everyone’s doing right now?”
“Indeed…Everyone is over there. And Yuri-chan is the only one over there.”
Hera pointed in two completely different directions.
Taiyou frowned.
Juunishima Youran was the only one in a different place than everyone else. What in the world was she planning, and what exactly was she doing right now?
