Epilogue - After the Festival

”Itsuka shi+dou-sama

On the third day of the Tenou Festival, 2:50 in the afternoon, please coe

There's so I want to talk to you about in private If you don't cory!

Yours sincerely, Miku”

… And so, this letter which was clearly in a tone completely different from before (and with a kiss print to boot) was sent to shi+dou, the evening after the incident with DEM Industries

”Doing all that… just what”

shi+dou read the note in his hand oncethe back of his head

September 25, Monday Tenou Festival Day 3 — the third day after the battle with DEM Industries' japanese branch

After receiving a whole day of thorough exauu Square in the Tenou Festival grounds

Compared to the first day, there were noticeably much fewer people Of course, Tenou Festival Day 3, supposedly only for the students of the ten schools to participate in, was also the so-called after-night festival

—In the end, the uu Square, was deterens spread in a terrorist attack

Although shi+dou felt that this was too reckless, Miku's folloho had suddenly awakened yesterdayate the truth either However illogical the matter was they had to accept it as truth That no one died in the commotion was already a fortune out of a misfortune

The daed to be due to a particular spacequake Although surveillance caes of some sort, they wouldn't deliberately showcase the battles between Spirits and Wizards in front of the public

Kurumi who had helped shi+dou, had left before he knew it He thought she would come to ask him for a request… but since then, she didn't appear in front of shi+dou again

Heslowly

Due to the disturbance, the second day of the Tenou Festival had to be abruptly stopped, and whether the third day could go on was also lurched in precariousness… in the end because of the students' enthusiasm and <ratatoskr's> covert assistance, it was finally able to safely proceed

And froraain to the after-night festival being followed by the cultural festival, but the students didn't seem to mind

”Kuku… shi+dou You've already fully recovered? Fuu — as expected of the man I fancy”

”Question Tohka still can't come?”

Passing by themaid costumes asked shi+dou

”Yeah, looks like the exaift”

”Hmm… I see — then, shi+dou, why are you dressed like a boy today?”

”Coherence Yuzuru is also curious What happened to shi+ori?”

”Dressed like a boy… I'in with!”

shi+dou scowled as he cried out loud, while the Yahed

I'll co back, shi+dou left the maid café

That's right Today shi+dou, has so that he must do

Passing through the booth, he walked towards the central stage When he opened the door, he heard cheerful tunes and deafening cheers

Standing on the stage was Miku Wearing her Astral Dress, singing with her captivating ”voice” That everyone was going wild as a result was only natural

After her perforhtly undulated, as she thanked the audience At that the hall burst into thunderous applause

”Thank you very much, everyone! Really—”

After that, Miku left the stage The audience clapped again, shouting Miku's name

Passing through so e would be difficult shi+dou left the stage, and entered by the staff-only passageway

Then standing in front of the door to the lounge, he knocked on the door

”Yes, come in–”

Fro and opened the door

In the lounge, Miku was alone sitting on a chair A bottle of sports drink was placed next to her, and around her neck hung a towel

After the DEM incident, even when Miku regained her ”voice”, she never put up any form of resistance, and obediently followed the instructions of the <ratatoskr> personnel who came to deal with the aftermath of the situation

As shi+dou was not present and thus unable to seal Miku's powers, <ratatoskr> couldn't do anything aside fro this time, they didn't find any unstable behavior from Miku Not only that, she even wrote a letter and asked thee did Miku'sher had been exorcised and she became a completely different person

Actually—

”! You ca–!”

Miku said with an energetic voice, as she jued shi+dou

”D, darling…!?”

This sudden behaviour took shi+dou aback He couldn't help but look at Miku's childlike carefree smile

”You… what's going on I thought you hated men…”

”Ufufu, darling is special You're even my saviour”

As she said that, she brought her body even closer Miku's buxoainst him

”Wait…”

shi+dou's shoulder shuddered Then he understood From Miku's face came an amused smile …As if, it was like her response to his shi+ori-chan persona

Indeed, after the time with DEM Miku's mental state was extremely stable — In addition, it was even said that her affection level towards shi+dou had risen sharply… ould have thought that it would be this extreme

Although he already had this feeling before, sure enough, her character, or rather, her values were like a child's A thing that she originally really hated, due to a trigger she would become very fond of it To her, that switch would be the DEM incident

shi+dou gave a wry s of the letter, he asked

”Then… Miku You said you wanted to talk, what did you want to talk about?”

”Aaah, right”

Miku nodded her head as if thinking of so

Without any unnecessary actions, facing shi+dou—

She tiptoed, and kissed shi+dou

”…!?”

It was so sudden, that shi+dou opened his eyes wide and was at a loss However, Miku silently hugged shi+dou's body, with no intention of parting lips

”Mm…”

”…mm”

As the two kissed, shi+dou felt so warm flow into his body—

At the sarated into light particles and melted into the air

”Wah… ah!”

She o of shi+dou's lips

”How co is really perverted…”

”N, no! I'm not…”
