Vol 5 Epilogue (2/2)
Lisa went red in the face and looked completely at a loss what to do
”I will pray froood partner for life”
Mr Highwalker patted Lisa on the shoulder then turned his gaze to his wife
”It's almost time Let us depart”
”Yes”
”Oh, ait!”
Seeing her parents were about to leave, Lisa chased frantically after them
After they left the sickroom, it suddenly became quiet
”—N-Nii-san, what shall we do now!? Lisa's father now approves of you as her prospective suitor!?”
Mitsuki came to her senses and shrieked shrilly
”So that's what he really meant just now?”
Unable to keep up with the conversation, I asked in a daze
”But it feels like her father meant that he'll respect your wishes, Mononobe-kun Since there's no forcing, I don't think there's a problem”
”Mm”
Ren nodded in agreement with Ariella
”But In that case, if Lisa gets serious And Mononobe-kun doesn't seeainst it”
The instant Firill ot tense
”Nii-san, pretending to be a couple was purely an act, right?”
Mitsuki asked to confirm
”Yuu! If you're getting married, it has to be with Tia!”
Tia bounced up and down and insisted
”E-Everyone calm down”
At this rate, Iris was going to get the wrong idea I looked at her, as standing behind the group
”!”
Speaking of which, Iris had reo Fear could be seen faintly in her eyes
”Umm Mononobe, I-I”
Iris walked up in trepidation, speaking tovoice
”Iris?”
Not sure as up with her, I called her name
”I'm so sorry Mononobe”
”Huh?”
Seeing Iris bow her head deeply to apologize, I could not help but sound confused
The others also looked at one another in puzzlement
In these circuize repeatedly to me
”Because of ot injured so heavily, sorry Sorry, it must hurt a lot”
Iris had probably been looking for the chance to apologize since a while ago
I had gotten injured due to protecting her, which she surely felt guilty about
But fearing my reaction, she dared not speak toscolded or resented in this kind of situation
Just by thinking in her shoes, I could understand Iris' current feelings
I regretted deeply that I had failed to notice her state immediately
”No, Iris, you did nothing wrong You don't have to blame yourself so much”
The whole incident happened because I was exploited by Yggdrasil, so Iris had no need to apologize at all
”But But”
”And you saved me, Iris, so—Thank you, Iris”
Just as Lisa did to me earlier, I placed my hand on Iris' cheek and thanked her
”Mononobe”
Iris held h finally relieved
Seeing her expression, I recalled—
Destroying Yggdrasil is i it is not an option—I recalled what happened after the principal said these words
I had reported to the principal that Iris had produced the red light without generating dark matter
The answer I got was—Impossible
That ithout saying
The principal initially said that the fact that Iris had used Basilisk's poas not too big a deal
That was due to the precedents of Mitsuki and me
We were able to use dark ons—antiravitational matter
However, what Iris did was on a completely different dimension
Using Basilisk's poithout going through dark matter, itthat red light itself
That was unprecedented
It would be more natural to think that I had
I was sure that the principal probably felt the same
After a long silence, the principal finally spoke ”Suppose what you say is true”—That was how she began before suggesting a certain possibility
Those were truly unbelievable words
”What's wrong? Mononobe?”
While I was lost in deep thought, Iris stared atwith her head tilted in puzzlement
”No, nothing”
Despite answering that way, I heard the principal's words repeat in my mind—
What she had told me was—
—Iris Freyja on
Afterword
