「Wow, beautiful.」

「Yup!」

Aoba and Akiha stood looking through the window glass and were struck by the beauty of the scenery.

They were 15 miles from Oritachi, in Sendai City. This city had the most population, and it was bustling.

They were on the top floor of a skyscraper, in a restaurant.

Taiyou had invited Aoba and Akiha there.

They were in a very large private room, in a very expensive place.

He looked at the two looking out into the night sky, and remembered when he and Aoba had first arrived at his castle…it was all so nostalgic.

「Customer, would you like your meal now?」

The waiter asked, and the seated Taiyou placidly nodded.

「Yes, please.」

「Just a moment.」

The waiter bowed, and the two girls returned to their seats.

When they sat down, another waited pushed their chairs into the table without a sound.

「Wow, this is something. Hey, Aoba, do you come to places like this often? Atsuko and the others like places like this, you know.」

「My mothers come to places like this, but this is the first for me.」

「Oh, really?」

Akiha looked a bit surprised.

「They told me that in the future, you should take the people you like to places like this.」

「Well, I know, but Atsuko and the others can be a little cold. They were always like that.」 Akiha said.

「So you’ve known them long?」Taiyou asked.

「Yeah.」

Akiha smirked at him and threw up a peace sign.

It was very much like her to overreact to a simple conversation.

「I even had a time when I was living with Aoba.」

「Oh…when was that?」

「When was it…hey, Aoba, when did I start living with you?」

「I think around first grade, I can’t recall.」

「Was it around then? Yeah, I guess so. Or maybe around kindergarten.」

The conversation between the two began to blossom.

「That reminds me, why did you invite me here?」

「Same as last time, is that okay?」

「Well, before was an amusement park, but now you should be alone with Aoba.」

「Is that bad?」

「Is this a set-up?」

「You guessed it.」

Taiyou thought a bit. Instead of beating around the bush with a girl like Akiha, it would be better to be straight with her.

He took the wine glass the waiter had provided and sipped from the grape juice inside, and said:

「I want you.」

「For my fighting strength?」

「What fighting strength?!」

Taiyou reacted loudly.

His head even hurt a bit.

Today, he had come to persuade Akiha.

He asked Youran to set up this expensive place for him, and then used Aoba as bait to get her there.

It was a beautiful view, and expensive restaurant, then, I want you.
