Sure enough, not long after the match ended, Kaguya secretly called me out.

Then, Kaguya took my hand, and we strolled cheerfully along the coastline. The silhouette of the villa quickly disappeared from view.

I could clearly feel the soft touch of the hand holding mine. I looked up and saw that Kaguya's originally fair, pretty face was now tinged with a faint pink hue.

Heh, This tsundere girl is actually getting shy now...

————

"Hey, Kaguya, didn't you have something to tell me? You can say it now!"

"Wuu..."

Hearing my reminder, Kaguya finally stopped, but she seemed a bit fidgety and embarrassed.

After a moment's pause, she turned to look at me, her face slightly red as she stammered. "Actually... um, I wanted to say..."

"Why are you acting so shy? This isn't the Kaguya I know." Looking at the downcast Kaguya, I teased her with a smile.

"Eh??" Kaguya was stunned upon hearing this, then her face turned beet red.

Then she coughed awkwardly a few times, placed her right hand on her forehead, and struck what she thought was an elegant pose.

"Ahaha... As expected! You were deceived by my superb acting! It is your honor to be played in the palm of my hand!"

"Mm, that's more like it. This is the Kaguya I know. But this look is quite cute too." I stroked my chin, a delighted smile on my face.

Hearing my praise, Kaguya struggled to maintain her aloof persona, her face flushing crimson.

Then she sighed and said softly, "After all... I am a Spirit. Only by acting like this can I establish some authority!"

"Hmm, Kaguya like this is quite cute."

"...." Seeing me still teasing her, and even interrupting the words she had mustered so much courage to say, Kaguya couldn't help but blush.

"Alright, actually, I wanted to ask you for a favor. For tomorrow's match result... please choose Yuzuru!"

Although I knew her intentions, actually hearing her say it, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

This pair of twin sisters is really... heartbreaking and helpless!

"Actually, compared to me, Yuzuru is cuter, right? Although she's a bit quiet, she's very gentle, and her chest is big. She's practically the fantasy of all you boys! Besides, if you choose her, Kyoya can receive all sorts of services from Yuzuru! Compared to Yuzuru, you have no reason to choose me, so..."

Then Kaguya didn't say any more, just scratched her head with an embarrassed look, and smiled at me. Although she was smiling, I could clearly see Kaguya's body trembling slightly, her eyes dim and lifeless.

Looking at this originally lively girl, now looking so lonely and dejected—

I couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart. I then spoke slowly. "Kaguya, why do you and Yuzuru have to determine a winner?"

"Because this is our... fate!"

After a pause, Kaguya spoke, a flash of pain on her face.

Fate??

A sharp glint flashed in my eyes. So-called fate is meant to be broken, isn't it??

Just like how I helped Origami resurrect her dead parents, and helped Kurumi resurrect her best friend, Sawa. Even I myself had changed my own fate because of transmigration.

So, at this point, I no longer believed in fate!

Because whether it was now or in the future, I was changing things, including what I was doing right now...

————

"Fate is meant to be broken. So I never believe in any fate," I said, my expression serious, my tone solemn and domineering. "Thus, I won't agree to your request. Because whether it's you or Yuzuru, I won't let either of you disappear!"

When my words fell into Kaguya's ears, her delicate body couldn't help but tremble slightly, a hint of light appearing in her eyes.

Then, she turned sideways to look at me and asked curiously, "Mm... Kyoya, you seem to know a lot about us?"

"Of course. I know everything about you and Yuzuru," I said with a toothy grin, speaking softly.

"So you understand now, right? Your charm contest is actually meaningless. Because whether it's you, Kaguya, or Yuzuru, I want both of you!"

Hearing my almost confessional words, Kaguya stared at me blankly, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

But she still blushed and pretended to joke. "Ahaha... Kyoya, don't tell me you've been charmed by me? Is this... a confession?"

"Mm, if you think so, then it is!" I looked at her blushing face and knew she was just pretending to be calm, so a smile appeared on my face.

"But speaking of which, both Kaguya and Yuzuru are very cute and beautiful. So if possible, I'd like to confess to both of you."

"Wuu, Is that so... Actually, you can give it a try~" Immediately, Kaguya turned around and came before me, tilting her head up to look directly at me, her pretty face blushing as she said.

"Hey, Kyoya, you can give it a try. Maybe there's a surprise waiting for you."

Under what circumstances is a girl most moving?

At this moment, I was absolutely certain—it was when a girl was shy.

Her tender cheeks were tinged with pink, like a delicate and dripping flower, appearing dazzling and exceptionally moving.

Just like Kaguya at this moment.

I gently caressed Kaguya's face with my hand, and Kaguya had no intention of avoiding it. Instead, a hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.

Seeing this, I slowly lowered my head, and Kaguya's beautiful eyes slowly closed. She wrapped her arms around my neck and slightly stood on her tiptoes.

I could clearly feel that Kaguya was a little nervous. Immediately, my other hand wrapped around her.

A long while later, our lips parted.

At this moment, Kaguya's small face was blushing as she leaned against my chest, proposing softly. "Kyoya, if you promise me one thing, you can do anything to me, and I won't object."

"I can. But letting you go is impossible!"

Hearing me agree, Kaguya was initially a little happy and slightly disappointed.

But when she heard the latter part of the sentence, a sense of happiness inevitably arose in her heart.

"Kyoya, you should still choose Yuzuru. She's sexier, gentler, and more charming than me. She's more qualified to live."

Hearing this, my arms around Kaguya tightened a bit, my tone extremely domineering. "I said, I won't give up on either of you. Besides, how can you be so sure that one of you must disappear?"

"By the way, do you and Yuzuru know why Yamai split into you two sisters?"

"Why?"

I smiled slyly, brought my face closer, and said, "Kiss me, and I'll tell you."

Kaguya rolled her eyes at me but still pouted and slowly leaned in.

"Mmph~"

Seeing this, I felt a surge of secret joy, then patted Kaguya's head and explained. "Because she was too lonely. Yamai was too lonely and desolate, so she split into you and Yuzuru."

"So whether it's Kaguya or Yuzuru, you're both idiots! I can tell you, Yuzuru will actually make the same choice as you."

"What! Yuzuru, she..." Hearing this, Kaguya suddenly looked up, staring at me in disbelief.

Could it be that Yuzuru will make the same request as me??

"What? Is it hard to believe!" Looking down at the shocked Kaguya, a helpless and bitter smile appeared on my face.

"Kaguya, how about we make a bet? If Yuzuru makes the same choice as you, from now on, you're not allowed to think about making yourselves disappear to fulfill the other's wish."

"Well? Do you want to bet?"

Hearing this, Kaguya's eyes shimmered with tears, her face showing a mixture of nervousness and anticipation. "Kyoya, is that true? Is it really possible? We can both live, and neither of us will disappear..."

"Silly Kaguya, just wait to admit defeat, and then obediently stay by my side!"
