For Uruto to see her in the dress for the first time, I asked Parasuna to put on the veil and gloves, and then hide behind a partition.

“I brought him, Alim.”

Just as asked in the message, Bacchus came together with Uruto. The latter looked good in the tuxedo.

“Y-You said it’s time for me to…”
“We’ll show you right away… Miss Parasuna, please come out.”
“Y-Yeah…”

While holding up the dress’ hem by herself, she stepped out from behind the partition. She was wearing the veil, and her rabbit ears were visible. How did her appearance, which should captivate anyone, look to him?

“Pa… rasuna…”
“D-Do you like it?”

With her cheeks tinged red and slightly making her skirt flutter, she looked at Uruto, waiting for an answer. He just kept staring at her, spellbound, his mouth open, without saying anything.

“…Uruto?”
“Won’t you say anything, man?”
“Wha-…!? I-I was just so captivated… You’re incredibly pretty, Parasuna.”

He bashfully scratched his cheek after telling her his honest feelings.

“Heh-heh, thank you. I knew getting married was the right decision. My heart is beating so fast.”
“S-Same here.”

They gazed at each other.
There must’ve been some grand hardship for those two. I had Mika, so I could tell. Other than love, there was a sense of accomplishment.

“Heh-heh, Uruto… you look so handsome.”
“You think so?”
“I do. You always look good, but especially now. My dear husband.”
“E-Enough already.”
“Eh-heh-heh, I’m just messing with you.”

It looked as if they were reminiscing about something. Bacchus and I looked at each other, making eye-contact.

“There’s still a lot of time, so you two please enjoy yourselves,” I told them. “If you need to go to the toilet, there’s one right outside the room. In such a case, just enter the small fitting room, which will temporarily change what you’re wearing.”
“Understood. Thanks again, Alim.”
“Thank you too, Bacchus.”
“It’s fine. Relax some, you guys.”

Bacchus and I left the waiting room. Those two would likely take some time to calm down.

“Alim, who of the two do you think was the one to propose?” he asked me, as he poured me some juice after we had returned to a waiting room for guests.
“I expect it was Mr. Uruto.”
“You’re right. And one of the reasons he proposed to her was related to you, Alim. He himself told me so.”
“Really!? He said that?”

Wh-What could that be? Something related to me.

“…During the war with the demons, we all died, regardless of how strong we were. And you brought us back to life, Alim.”
“Th-That’s true. But Mr. Uruto also survived…”
“Yep. His Creature Master skill allows him to change his form freely and recreate the appearance and powers of magic beasts. I think he endured it by transforming into a monster with special invulnerability.”

Huh. What kind of magic beast would that be!? Does that mean it’s possible for him to turn into an SSS-Rank monster? Though I never encountered any SSS-Rank magic beasts in the wild so far. But I’m sure he can turn into something like a dragon.

Now I want to know more…

“Parasuna, on the other hand, has Magic Master, which increases the power of all basic elemental spells. Well, because of a skill called God of Water or something, not all her elements are equally strong¹… Anyway, that’s the reason she didn’t survive like him.”

He then added with a chuckle, that all he himself had was Alcohol Magic and abilities that raised his firepower, so he died, too.

“So, once the war was over, you brought all of us back, right? Back then, it apparently made Uruto realize just how important she was to him.”
“He took the plunge and proposed…?”
“Exactly. Though if you ask me, he should’ve done that two years ago.”

Does that make me their cupid? No, that doesn’t really fit. They were already in love at that point.

“They themselves said so, so it must be true. Well, she’s been in a relationship with him for a long time, but I didn’t expect his slave from back then to end up like this… Oh, by the way, I grew up in the house next to Uruto’s inn, y’know.”
“R-Really!?”
“Yep.”

However, he said that he thought it better to live closer to the factory where he made alcohol, so he moved there when he was 16.

“Well, it’s exactly because I know them so well that want them to be happy.”
“I’m sure they are.”
“Ah-ha-ha, you’re right.” He stretched a bit and then continued. “I also want a girlfriend already. I mean, it’s not like I didn’t have any before. Lahand has Margo and there’s apparently someone making advances towards Gabaina recently.”
“Seriously!?”

Wh-What, did spring finally come for those two? Even though they look like super rugged middle-aged men (although they actually aren’t that old, yet).

“I’m not pulling your leg. I’m the only one without any romance prospects in our group. I’m going to drown my sorrows.”
“Please don’t get drunk before the ceremony starts.”
“I’ll be fine, I never get drunk!”

He brought out a bottle of wine from who-knows-where and started drinking.

1. This may be wrong. The original is 『水神』とかよりはそれぞれの属性は弱い (“each element is weak(er) due to ‘Water God’ or something”). My translation is based on prior knowledge about those skills, which shouldn’t weaken other elements.
