Chapter 425: Merging Souls (1/2)
Kohaku looked at each of the sisters’ notebooks in turn.
And then she spoke.
“I see, so ye write it as the symbol for “miracle”, but ye pronounce it as “taiyou-san”…like this. Jana.”
Kohaku took a pen and added a small notation above the symbol to make it easier to understand.
奇跡 (Taiyou-san)
“Like this, jana.”
“””Yes.”””
“I see, well that is not a bad name at all.”
“Right.”
“I agree.”
“If there aren’t any better ones we will probably go with this.”
“The name itself be good, but this still not be enough, ja.”
“”“What, why not!?”””
The sisters let out a bit of a shriek.
“I see no issue with us referring to ye by that name. But who do ye young’uns most want to refer to ye by that name?”
“””Eh?”””
“Who do ye want to say yer names the most, ja?”
The three sisters looked at each other, and then it dawned on them.
It was Taiyou.
“Aye. Imagine Danna-sama whispering yer name into ye ears lovingly.”
Kohaku said, closing her own eyes.
The sisters followed suit, closing their eyes.
Everyone present imagined this at the same time.
Pressing their skin together atop the bed.
Taiyou whispering into their ears—- “taiyousan”.
Shivers.
Everyone present could feel goosebumps.
“Sorry, please forget this happened.”
“We never considered what that would sound like.”
“Cringy…heck no.”
Taking the notebooks back, they crossed out the suggestion with their pens.
“Kukuku. Failure be the privilege of the young. Keep testing things out, lassies.”
Kohaku sucked up some sake.
“Koto-chan, throw this away.”
The biggest girl ripped the page out, handing it to the smallest girl.
She was closest to the wastebasket, throwing it in.
“Hm?”
Kohaku cocked her head, staring at the sisters, cup tilted toward her mouth.
“What ye say just now, ja?”
“Eh? We were just throwing this…”
“Nay, before that, ja. What did ye call her just now?”
“Isn’t Kotone supposed to be you, lassie?”
“Eh?”
“Eh?”
“Eh?”
The same reaction, three times. Repeated…but not overlapping.
There was no unison in the usual chorus of souls.
Instead, it was a haphazard set of surprised exclamations.
The sisters looked at the tallest one…Kotone.
Kotone also looked at herself.
