“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.
