We took a trip to the bath before getting ready for bed. As we crawled under the covers, Mika and I had a conversation.

“Hm~…”
“Is something wrong, Alim?”
“No, I just never though Kanata, Sakura, and Shuu would end up in this world…”

From my perspective, today’s events would likely be unforgettable.

Because, you know? Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to run into our siblings and my best friend here. It was a huge coincidence. To be honest, this part had shocked me even more than the defeat of the Black God.

Even just reuniting with Mika here had been incredible luck. If I were to calculate the probability for this to happen… I wonder how it would turn out¹.

“That’s true. But just meeting you again in this world was enough of a miracle, if you ask me. So, when I saw Sakura, I wasn’t as shocked as back then.”
“Huh, I see.”

A miracle… it definitely was one. Even though there are more than eight billion people in the world, it was a crazy miracle for exactly our relatives to show up close to where we live. If my parents were to appear next, I’d probably rather laugh than cry.

“Phew… From tomorrow on, we’ll be busy again.”
“Erm, what kind of work did we have again…?”

Indeed, at some point after tomorrow, we’d have to tell the king and the others about our fight against the Black God, and explain our real identities to them. Once they summoned us, we’d go to the castle.

Then, there was the question of what Kanata, Sakura, and Shuu would do. To begin with… they had to return to Earth. But I needed to ask them first, whether they even intended to go back. Shuu especially, seeing he had a girlfriend here.

Also, defeating Surtr would only make us more famous, making our work as Idols busier, then there was my birthday less than four days from now, and finally the promised training with Karua and the others… Indeed, there was a heap of things to do.

“-so, that’s what I think.”
“I see… Are you already excited for your birthday? I’ll absolutely prepare something that’ll make you happy!”
“Thank you, Mika.”

I patted her head and then gave her a kiss. The electric lamp the bed was furnished with was dimmed, but I had seen her happy expressions often enough to know.

“Eh-heh-heh… I hope you’re looking forward to that day, but… say, Ayumu, what do you think?”
“…About what?”
“Even though I had the option to go back to Earth, I didn’t take it. I never expected Sakura to come here… what should I say?”

Her expression turned uneasy. She had probably worried about that since we came home. That was how it felt like.

“To Sakura?”
“Yeah. I want to give her an honest apology. Even if that makes her angry… I want to stay together with you, Ayumu. But she cares a great deal about me…”
“Makes sense…”

I didn’t know what to tell her. In the end, I didn’t want to be separated from her, either. I kept silent and just hugged her more tightly.

“…Tomorrow, what if you suggested to sleep together with Sakura in your own room? I’m sure you have some things to talk about, where I shouldn’t be present.”
“…That might be true. I guess, I’ll try it,” she replied with a look of relief. “So, will you have a sleepover with Kanata then? Although if you spend the night with him, turning into Alim is taboo! He already has Sakura…”
“Uhm, sure, I can do that. I won’t turn into Alim. Still, right now my face doesn’t look any different whether I’m Ayumu or Alim.”

We used to be related by blood… Or rather, we still are, I guess? Eh, who cares. At any rate, Kanata and I are brother and sister… I mean, brothers. He wouldn’t try anything consciously.

“Heh-heh-heh… It’s been a long time since I’ve last slept in the same bed with Sakura. That girl has a habit of hugging things that are close while she’s sleeping. Now, she also has a big rack, so… I guess Kanata is having a hard time? Or maybe he’s in bliss.”
“Oh, right. That’s true.”

I bit back the “You know, you’re the same, Mika” that was on my tongue. Although Mika’s assets were smaller than they had been when she was in high school, they still were substantial. On that note, Karua’s and Mika’s breasts were close in size… so when the three of us shared a bed, I was the one having a tough time. Of course, I was female on these occasions, so all I felt towards their chest size was jealousy.

At any rate, Kanata is currently using the same bed as Sakura, so if Mika is correct, he is finding himself in her embrace, right now… I wonder, is he happy about that? My vote goes for him being embarrassed by it like me.

“…Huh, it’s already this late. We should go to sleep,” I commented after shooting a glance at the clock.

Mika was still in my embrace, so it should have been rather hard for her to nod, but she still managed.

“Yeah. God night, Ayumu.”
“Good night, Mika.”

We shared another kiss and then closed our eyes.

TL notes:
And thus, the longest day in the series so far, stretching over 51 chapters and three volumes, finally comes to an end.

1. I was planning to link to a comic from the author of Dark Legacy Comics, which did a wonderful job of showing probabilities on a cosmic scale, but sadly I could no longer find it. Safe to say, there’d likely be enough zeroes after the decimal point to fill a book.
