Chapter 616 - I Think It\'s Thanks to Her Blessing

[For the atmosphere, I guess? I thought that, as expected, if we’re going to do “that”, this would be a good place for it.]

[“That”…… what do you mean?]

[Errr, well, it doesn’t really mean anything but…… I have a present for Kai-chan.]

[A present?]

When I tilted my head at Fate-san’s words, she slightly smiled, and letting go of my arm, I walked to the far end of her temple…… to an area where there is something that looks like an altar.

She then looked at me straight in the eye from a higher vantage point, smiled and spoke.

[By my name———– By the name of Fate———– I tell the revolving fate.]

[!? ]

A voice full of dignity echoed in the hall…… containing words that I think I’ve heard twice before. Could this be……

[That this person———– Miyama Kaito———– is one I acknowledge worthy of my blessing.]

The first time I heard it was when I met Shiro-san, and the second time was at a party at the royal castle I attended with Lilia-san. They were words that held very important meaning for the Gods.

[Therefore———– By my name———– By the name of Fate———– I command the fate.]

Fate-san’s appearance as she announced this, releasing a huge amount of magic power, combined with the atmosphere of the temple, looks very divine. However, her expression was filled with tenderness that seemed to envelop me.

[Oh, Revolving Fate———– Become the guiding wind and push his back forward———– Lead him to a blessed future———– By my name———– By the name of Fate———–]

Up to this point, it was the same as what Chronois-san had said to Lilia-san. However, Fate-san paused for a moment, before she continued with a dazzling smile on her face.

[———–I command———– That this one’s name———– That the name of Miyama Kaito———–As “my beloved”———– To be inscribed in fate———– in conjunction with my name.]

With those words, dazzling lights began dancing around my body and started gathering together.

[It doesn’t have much use for Kai-chan, who has received Shallow Vernal-sama’s blessing…… But even if that’s so, I want you to accept it. To Kai-chan, who accepted my feelings and this contradictory heart of mine in its entirety———– Filled with my overflowing love———– I wish for a blessed future for Kai-chan———– And thus, I give it to the one and only you———– The blessing of fate.]

The converging light was then absorbed into my body and I felt warmth fill my heart. I see, this really is the best present I could have gotten.

As I was so happy with Fate-san’s feelings that I was lost for words…… Fate-san got off the altar and walked towards me, and with her blushing face turned down, she hugged my arm again.

[……Ahh, this is insanely embarrassing……]

[Errr, ummm, Fate-san. Thank you. It makes me feel very happy.]

[U- Unnn. I- If you’re happy about it…… I’m happy too. T- Then, how about…… we continue our date?]

[Yes!]

Dear Mom, Dad—————- Even though the person herself said that it doesn’t have much use for me, who has Shiro-san’s blessing, I don’t think that’s true. At the very least, the warm and happy feeling that fills my heart now————- I think it’s thanks to Fate-san’s present, her blessing.

———–Hey, the guy over there.

Yes, if I remember correctly, my story with Kai-chan started with those words. What were the feelings I had for Kai-chan at that time again? I think it was “He seems easy to handle” or something horrible like that.

It’s strange, isn’t it? I’m the God who governs fate…… A being who should be able to see the future, but I didn’t even know a single thing regarding my own future.

No, I think I could have at least seen my future if I wanted to. However, the me at that time…… doesn’t hold any interest in my own future.

Only holding the thought that it would be nice if I could just relax and take it easy, I never thought of any concrete plan. I didn’t have any aspirations for the future.

For the time being, if I can just take things easy, that’s good enough for me…… I was such a being. That must be why, I guess. When I became aware of my love for Kai-chan…… It was agonizing for me.

This self-indulging, irresponsible and selfish me, dares to fall in love with Kai-chan, holding such a thought made me feel like an inexcusable jerk. I knew from the beginning that I was in love with Kai-chan. But the more I loved Kai-chan, the more I hated myself.

However…… I gave up. Kai-chan still accepted my feelings. Kai-chan affirmed that it was okay that he couldn’t be my first priority.

It was the first time since I was born that I felt that happy.

What am I supposed to do now? I don’t know but…… I don’t feel like the essence of what makes me the person I am will probably never change. I’ll probably continue to skip work a lot and drag Kai-chan along with my selfishness.

However, that doesn’t mean that nothing has changed. Unlike the past me, I now have an aspiration for the future.

I want to make my future together with Kai-chan to be filled with happiness. For that purpose, I don’t mind working a bit more. I don’t mind trying a bit harder.

Not leaving everything to Kai-chan to do, I also want to be by Kai-chan’s side, building our happy future, together. At least, so that Kai-chan…… would think that it’s great that we’ve become lovers……
