Yuushun : You were doing well, Your Majesty.
Ryuuki : You think so? I hope you’re right..
Ryuuki : Things will get tougher from now on..
Shuuei : You don’t have to worry.
Ryuuki : Oh? Shuuei! Seiran!
Shuuei : You have many allies at your side.
Seiran : Indeed.
Ryuuki : Oh..
Kouyuu : Eeei!! Where the heck is this place!?
Kouyuu : Is this also one of the ayakashi’s trick!?
Kouyuu : ..ugh.. ah! There you are..
Ryuuki : ..Kouyuu..
Shuuei : Are you..
Kouyuu : I’M NOT LOST!! I’m just strolling around here!!
Ryuuki : Weren’t you busy doing your work at the Ribu?
Kouyuu : I have took care of that.
Reishin : What is this?
Kouyuu : I’m thinking of doing the amount of work that worth for around a hundred years’ time.
Kouyuu : I would like to take a break for a while.
Kouyuu : Then, if you’ll excuse me..
Kouyuu : That’s the story. Thus, here I am now.
Kouyuu : You’ve made it back.
Shuuei : ..indeed.
Yuushun : With this, the twin flower have gathered.
Ryuuki : Yes.
Shouka : You have us as well.
Ensei : I might hang around for a while.
Ensei : I’ll do anything to help.
Ryuuren : **flute starts**
Shuuei : **translates** ..h he said the same thing as Ensei.
Shouka : When you’re tired, you’re welcome to stop by here at any time.
Shouka : I shall prepare some tea and wait for you.
Shuurei : ..huh?
Seiran : Your Majesty, you have this many allies, you see.
Seiran : Or, do you think this much isn’t enough?
Ryuuki : ..enough. I have all of you, who are willing to support me at any time.
Ryuuki : No matter how hard things will be in the future, I shall not lose my way, nor shall I escape.
The allies…
Ryuuki : I’m the emperor.
Ryuuki : I shall stay as the emperor until the very end.
Ensei : Well said!
Shuuei : We will follow you anywhere you go.
Kouyuu : Yeah.
Seiran : As to be expected from you, Your Majesty. You’ve said it very well.
Shouka : I shall follow you as well.
Shuurei : ..huh?
The moon's reflection on the water, and 2 floating leaves..
Shuurei was gazing at the pond when Ryuuki approaching..
Ryuuki : We didn’t have the chance to properly speak to each other.
Ryuuki : I’m very sorry.. about many things.
Ryuuki : But I’m happy that you’re willing to come from a long way to the Ran province to get me.
Shuurei : Regardless, I was worried about you.
Ryuuki : Shuuei told me.
Ryuuki : You were crying for me.
Shuurei : ..urk..
Shuurei : Th.. that’s a lie! Ran-shogun has made it up!
Ryuuki : Oooh..?
Shuurei : ..ugh..
Ryuuki : ..Shuurei..
Shuurei : ..huh? W what?
Ryuuki : I shall no longer be an emperor for your sake.
Shuurei : ..huh?
Ryuuki : I won’t tell a lie. If I was told to be one for the sake of the people, I would honestly admit that I still have no idea as how it’s supposed to be.
Ryuuki : However, there are Yuushun, Seiran, Shuuei, and Kouyuu, there are people who have always supported me, and you who have risked your life in order to search for me.
Ryuuki : I want to be an emperor who is worthy of you all.
Ryuuki : I shall find my own path as an emperor, and I shall walk through it.
Ryuuki : The emperor have to get married.
Shuurei : Y.. you’re right..
Ryuuki : I shall have Juusan-hime into my residence..
Shuurei : ..huh..
Ryuuki : ..I shall have her as the head of ladies in waiting.
Ryuuki : ..huh!?
Ryuuki : The head of ladies in waiting is the one I’m closest to, therefore she must be the one I can trust.
Ryuuki : I shall make her Shusui’s successor, and have her to rule over the imperial residence.
Ryuuki : And then, if I were to take a woman other than you as my wife, that will be Juusan-hime.
Shuurei : ..huh? What? Why did he tell me these things all of sudden?
Shuurei : Huh? Huuh?
The round moon reflection in the water start to waver…
Because the wind starts to cause ripples on the calm surface..!?
Ryuuki : Shuurei, I shall take a wife.
Ryuuki : If the emperor is obliged to, then I certainly must comply.
Ryuuki : However, I can no longer wait for you forever.
Shuurei : ..ah.. a ha ha..
Ryuuki : I’m glad. It seems I still have hopes.
Shuurei : ..huh?
Ryuuki : That’s why.. let’s have a bet.
Shuurei : A bet?
Ryuuki : I shall set a certain time limit.
Ryuuki : If you’re able to decline until the time limit has passed, you will win.
Ryuuki : I shall not again say that I want to marry you. I shall not trouble you anymore.
Ryuuki : If I’m able to convince you to agree during that certain time limit, it shall be my victory.
Ryuuki : What do you think?
Their expression when the wind blows~
Shuurei : Don’t you think that you’ve put yourself into too many disadvantages?
Ryuuki : Eh? What? Aren’t you just fine with that terms?
Shuurei : I get it. I shall accept.
The moon and their expression..
Shuurei : Then, when is the time limit?
Ryuuki : Hmm..
