Chapter 434: Shocking Proposal (2/2)

But neither of them commented.

Even Sakura, who loved wordplay, did not attempt to point it out.

So the answer came quickly.

“We now greet each other every morning and every night.”

“Wha, you don’t have to say that much!”

For some reason Youran began panicking.

“You don’t mean that in a sexual way, do you?”

“Hell no!”

Youran countered in a loud voice.

“We say good morning and good night, no matter what now.”

“Wow.”

“All thanks to Shingetsu-sama for the proposition.”

“You proposed it?”

“Ugh…”

Youran’s face went red as she groaned.

“Cuz we’re sisters. I thought you’d be happy if we got along…ugh, geez! I won’t do it anymore! It’s not like you consider me an enemy. I don’t either! So let’s just stop.”

Youran said desperately.

Clearly she was embarrassed from all this.

“You’re quite the stubborn one, aren’t you?”

“…”

“It was the same in summer. You still feel that way.”

“Yeah ri–”

“I’m impressed with how you’ve continued the cute sulky thing. That’s a talent right there.”

“Eh–”

Youran exclaimed.

As she did so, Taiyou hugged her close to him.

“Keep it going.”

“…You want me to?”

“Yeah. No problem with that, right Sakura?”

“Not at all.”

“Then keep the trend. As you rightly guessed, that makes me happy.”

“A-Alright then…”

“So what’s happened as a result? Did it bring you any closer?”

“Honestly, I am not quite at that point.”

“Hm?”

He looked at Sakura while cuddling Youran.

“As Shingetsu-sama says, I no longer bear ill will toward her, but there is still a—-complicated feeling at the back of my throat.”

“I get you.”

Taiyou figured that wasn’t something that could be done away with so easily.

Being sisters from a different mother in a den of ogres, they had long opposed each other.

Something like that would not disappear in a matter of a few days.

Taiyou examined his options.

He could just leave it at that and wait for time to resolve their relationship.

However, it could also be good to try something.

He contemplated what that could be.

Then a lightbulb went off.

A divine revelation from the heavens themselves.

“Hey, you two.”

“Hm?”

“What is it?”

“Would you be interested in having children on the same day?”

Youran and Sakura had rather baffled expressions on their faces.

Yep, the similarity in their expressions shows that they’re sisters after all, thought Taiyou.
