When Aikari opened his eyes, he then saw Hirumi was in front of him, and he found out that he was in their house again. It confuses him, but maybe when did he and Hana reset the fate of the world? He was fainted and had been brought home.
Aikari smiled and hugged Hirumi that it just startled her. Hirumi blushes and hugs Aikari back, "I'm here. Are you worried that you won't wake up for another day? You're such a child." Hirumi giggled and Aikari then looked at her and said "Don't make it sound like you're my mother."
Hirumi cleared her throat and said.
"I'm not acting like a mother! I'm clearly acting like a wife that was caring about you, you know!"
Hirumi pouts and looks away. Aikari then just smiled back and grabbed Hirumi's hand. He then told Hirumi that they should go and eat now as he could smell a delicious aroma from the kitchen. That just makes Hirumi pouts again and she then said that was her line as it was her who cooked everything. But she just followed Aikari to the kitchen.
Aikari then sits down with Hirumi and they then feast on the breakfast that Hirumi cooks. Hirumi then told Aikari that yesterday, the neighborhood was having a party outside together with Hikari and the others. Since he was sleeping, Hikari then told Hirumi to get the special cooked lamb from the menu and keep it for him for today. Maybe Hikari wanted to hear Aikari's feedback about the cooking and Hirumi then asked Aikari about his opinion.
So Aikari got it and he then tasted the food and was about to give the review about it. But a little in his mind, he was just wondering. "What happened to Hana? Is she here in this world now?" Aikari continued to think about that and Hirumi could see that he was thinking about something. So she then finished her food first. There's actually something that she wanted to do with Aikari and she's planning on doing it after they are done with their breakfast and shower.
Aikari and Hirumi feast on their food while talking about the future that will happen. But while talking about that future, Aikari realized that Hirumi didn't even mention about them getting out of the Quantum World. Because that was also what they would do. Is it because she didn't remember anything or is it because she was having too much fun that she already accepted that they would live there like forever?
Looking at that, it just makes Aikari feel bad about it. Because Hirumi shouldn't get involved in this. Yet he invited her to get along with him. Then the results are like this? Will he be able to fix it?
It was his fault that all of this happened. Hirumi shouldn't get involved in anything. Yet now, she gets more problems because of him. Even though when they first met, Aikari said that he would make her happy. But looking at the current situation now. It is just different. Aikari maybe can see that Hirumi was so happy like there's nothing that happened there. But that just makes it like they're stuck there forever. So as Aikari finishes his food, he then asks Hirumi.
"Hey, how do you feel right now?"
Hirumi was so weird about that. She wondered if she made a sad reaction or something that made Aikari ask that. So she then smiled and replied, "I'm honestly fine. What's wrong?" Aikari then shook and stood up to wash his dish. He was actually trying to look at what had changed in Quantum World. Because of this, it is a world that Hana wished for. So what kind of difference does she make? What kind of preparation does she make to face the Rising God again?
But Aikari realized that he was thinking too much about that. So he then just brushed those feelings away, and suddenly he felt something soft pressing on his back and suddenly a hand wrapped around him. It appears that Hirumi is hugging him and asking him nicely.
"Hey, Aikari. I was thinking about something. Why don't we go out after this? And maybe... Visit Hikari and Arithia? I'm sure they got a lot of treats for us."
Aikari then sighed as he knew that all Hirumi wanted was to eat a lot of food. But he didn't say anything about that since he will also eat if there's a food in front of him.
Aikari then holds Hirumi's hand and asks if they should have gone to the shower now or if she wants to cling to him more?
Hirumi then gave Aikari a gentle squeeze and then let go of him. She then told Aikari that she would take her shower first and hope that Aikari won't peek at her. Of course Aikari said that he won't do that because after all they're partners. For him, being with her is more than enough to make him feel satisfied.
Hirumi smiled at Aikari and then grabbed her towel and went to the toilet. Because she can't wait to walk outside with Aikari. There's a lot of places that she wants to go together with him.
So while waiting for Hirumi, Aikari sits down and then wonders about a lot of things. But when he looked around inside the Quantum World currently. The city, people and everything. It just feels different. Aikari looked outside the window and he talked by himself.
"Why, I suddenly feel this? Why did everything here just feel real? Is there something wrong with this world? Is it just me?"
When Aikari was looking outside, he then happened to see someone in red hair. He couldn't see that person's face as she was wearing a big cap. Aikari actually has an urge to get out and go to that person. But he didn't since Hirumi was taking a shower. If he goes out now, he might miss his shower time and also Hirumi might be mad at him for leaving all of a sudden.
So Aikari just waits for Hirumi to come out. Plus, Aikari believes that if it was Hana, then she was living in the world that she wished for. So there's no need for him to rush anything. As he knew that Hana could do it, he wanted to see how fate would bring all of them together.
Aikari then grabs his towel and waits for Hirumi.
20 minutes later.
.
.
Hirumi then got out of the bathroom in a towel and saw Aikari looking at her. She then smirks and asks if Aikari was enjoying the view, and Aikari then grabs his towel and walks to Hirumi. He's been staring at Hirumi for a long time. Hirumi was expecting that Aikari was planning something, but Aikari then asked her.
"Is it just me or did a woman really take a long time in the shower? For some reason it makes me who is waiting feel so annoyed by it. But never mind."
Aikari then entered the bathroom and took a shower.
Now it was Hirumi time to wait. She grabs her clothes and gets changed.
While changing, Hirumi saw that the time was already late and she started to wonder if she was too long in the bath even though she didn't think that she was that long inside. But she just brushed those feelings away, and she then waited for Aikari to finish.
After a while, Aikari then got out of the bathroom fully clothed and got ready for the day. When Hirumi saw that, she then asked Aikari, "Wait, did you bring your clothes inside?" Aikari nods and he then asks Hirumi if she wants him to get changed in front of her and let her see everything. But Hirumi then just smirks at him and asks him if he was too shy to get changed in front of her and let her see everything. However, those words somehow shot back at herself and Hirumi blushes. Aikari then just stared at Hirumi for a while and slammed his head while saying "Just what the heck are you thinking?"
Hirumi then blushes and tells Aikari that it was nothing. So Aikari then just sighed and they both got their item up and Aikari took Nefier with him.
When Aikari holds Nefier, it just brings back the memory of the fight that he was fighting along with Hana and Hikari. He remembers that he was holding Nefier together with Hana and the change on Nefier at that time.
Is that Nefier's response when it was able to meet the person that created it? But looking at Hana at that time, it just made Aikari wonder if her ability was that strong and if she was able to use it outside of that place?
Of course, Aikari has been through all of that before and based on his experience, he knows that Hana still has all of that ability. Because of the wish that she makes, she doesn't have any connection to resetting anything at her. So maybe she still has all of that. Maybe, she actually wanted to take down the rising god once again and end everything. Aikari could feel how Hana felt. But when will it happen? If that happens again this time, did the rising god plan on taking the whole world down?
Hirumi saw that Aikari was longing, and she then grabbed Aikari's arm and asked, "What's wrong? Worrying about something?" Aikari then shook his head and didn't say anything. With that, both of them then head to Hikari's castle.
As when did they arrived, the guards let them in and they then saw Mika practicing with Hikari. It seems like Mika is a bit frustrated seeing that he won't be able to take that monster from before down. He must be practicing himself because he realized that he was lacking something. But he didn't use Ruka's power while practicing. He just used his sword to practice with Hikari.
Then Hirumi saw Arithia was sitting at the side while talking with Ruka and she then headed there with Aikari as they don't want to disturb Mika's practice.
Arithia saw Hirumi and Aikari coming at her and she then waved at them and said "Come and sit here, you two." Aikari and Hirumi nods and they both then sit down with Arithia and Ruka while watching Hikari and Mika practice.
"CHING!"
"PANG"
Mika gave Hikari a strong attack, but Hikari was just still standing there and blocked it using his sword. Hikari just has a basic form of his sword. Yet, it's hard for Mika to break through his defense.
Mika then jumped back and dashed towards Hikari again, but this time he tried to change the pattern of his attack. He thinks that maybe Hikari will not expect it. But Hikari was still able to parry all the attacks. Mika knew that it still wouldn't work, and he then jumped back and this time he tried to calm himself down. He tried to think of a way that he could even hit Hikari.
Hikari could see that Mika was trying his best to beat him. It is just a mock battle. But seeing that Mika would work really hard just made him realize how much down Mika was looking at himself. So he then lowered his sword down and asked Mika "Mika, maybe I should really call you Hiro now." Mika was so weird about it, and he then asked Hikari why he wanted to change his name all of the sudden. He told Hikari that it was not like he doesn't like the name. But it is just he has used to be called Mika. So hearing people calling him Hiro just makes him feel weird.
So Hikari then told Mika that a name like Hiro sounds like 'Hero'; won't it be good to be called that? However, Hikari didn't want Mika to take it as a praise. But instead as a hero. As it sounds the same. Then won't it just burn his strength more, and he will continue to keep on going?
Mika then began to think about it and realized that it was true. So he then told Hikari that maybe he would accept it.
When Hikari heard that, he then got an idea and he called the strongest warrior inside the city 'Hiyama' to come. Luckily at that time, Hiyama was browsing around the castle and was about to return to his home. But since Hikari has that kind of request, he just accepts it and upon being called there. He then asked Hikari what he wanted. It was actually too fast that Hiyama came there. But since he's here, Hikari then tells him what his request is.
