VOLUME 1

Season 3, Episode 4

Episode 4:

Shun decided to go with the 'I have no idea what's happening either!' stand.

Deny it. Just deny everything.

As Mikoto stammered out her astonishment, Shun waved away her concerns, insisting that Mikoto had misheard him.

However, given the rather extreme effectiveness of the stone, Mikoto could no longer fault Rosalie on it.

Time to move on.

”Next, we're heading to Shun's room!”

Today was the first time Shun had witnessed his cousin's masterful housekeeping skills at work, but what amazed him even more was how she managed to keep a tight grip on the control of things while actually teaching Rosalie how to clean.

That Miko-nee must really love taking care of others, huh?

Still though, he needed to stop things as they were right now, before they got out of hand.

Plus, he didn't actually want his room to be turned into a war zone.

”H-Hey, Miko-nee, we've done enough. Let's just call it a day, shall we? I'm sure Rosalie's pretty tired as well -”

”I'm fine!”

Rosalie cut in before he could finish his sentence.

”I wish to complete the bridal training!”

Well, someone was clearly into it.

So into it in fact, Shun was getting really creeped out.

–

The door creaked open and the three of them entered Shun's room.

”Now, we've got to start with picking up the stuff that's strewn all over the place!”

Mikoto bent down and started picking up things, designating them into neat piles. As her hand stretched under Shun's bed, she returned with her a rather familiar box.

”For example, games such as these ought to be put back into his drawers.”

Shun's eye zeroed in on the game ill.u.s.tration cover.

Wait, was that -

”Remember, Rosalie-chan, to always -”

Too late. Rosalie had seen it too, judging from how she had just s.n.a.t.c.hed that box from Mikoto.

Yes, that was none other than the game ill.u.s.tration covering that housed the game ”Dragon Bless”. And depicted in technicolor on the surface of that cover was the warrior princess Rosalie in all her be-armoured glory.

s.h.i.+t.

How could he have been so careless!?

”Please, never let Rosalie-san find out that she's now in an alternate universe.”

The words of Intergalactic Overseer Extraordinaire Sora echoed in his mind.

”W-What is it?”

Mikoto, being neither a gamer, nor a person of high authority in the Intergalactic Peacekeeping Committee, clearly had no idea as to what was going on.

Rosalie flipped the game from cover to cover. Something was definitely bothering her.

She knew.

”If she ever found out that this was not her original universe, it is possible that she might upset the fabric of time and s.p.a.ce, and cause an explosion as was never seen before.”

Honestly, he was much too young to die.

–

”Shun.”

Her eyes still trained on the game ill.u.s.tration, Rosalie called out to him.

s.h.i.+t, s.h.i.+t, s.h.i.+t, s.h.i.+t, s.h.i.+t!

”It's a fake.”

”…W-What?”

”It must be some blonde tramp that decided to use my name and claim my t.i.tle again.”

What?

Did Rosalie actually believe -

Well actually, come to think of it, something of that nature might have occurred in-game as well.

”Look, Shun.”
