Just as he said, he is smiling with

Just as he said, he is smiling without showing even a bit of sadness. He is not heartless, he is undoubtedly a strong person, that can walk ahead while carrying that sadness. Truly, a strong and great personage, that we cannot even surmise. We also must do our best.[2]

「It is still a while before we leave here, but there’s a lot of things to do. Everyone, I want you to follow me」(Sirius)
「「「「Yes!」」」」(Noel/Dee/Emilia/Reus)

No matter what happens, I will follow you.





After that, we finished breakfast and while we were preparing the after-meal tea, Sirius-sama abruptly adressed Dee-san.

「Dee. Don’t you have something need to do already?」(Sirius)
「………Yes」(Dee)

Dee-san stands up with a stiff expression and walks up to onee-chan. While surprised by the sudden action, onee-chan also stands up.

「…..Noel」(Dee)
「What is it?」(Noel)
「Please………….marry me!」(Dee)
「Fue?」(Noel)

………Haa!? [3]
I froze up, even though I am not the person involved.
Onee-chan is still frozen up. Dee-san took her hand and put a ring on it. It had a bluely shining gem, really pretty.

「a….uh….me…?」(Noel)
「Yeah, you」
「I’m…. a beastkin, you know?」(Noel)
「Doesn’t matter. I…like you. I won’t say that I’ll do it instead of Erina-san, but I’ll definitely protect you. So, please… tell me your answer」(Dee)
「……..Yes. I will…..be Dee-san’s wife」(Noel)

Onee-chan smiles and clings to him while spilling tears. Dee-san akwardly hugs her back.

Uwaa….uwaa….lovely.
I want to be proposed to in a way like that someday. Of course by….

「What?」(Sirius)

Wait, wait, I am a servant. I am fine if I can be by his side. If he holds me someday, I will be satisfied. (TLN: yeah, holds as in “that” meaning.)

「Noel, Dee. Congratulations」(Sirius)
「You did it, Dee-nii!」(Reus)
「Congratulations!」(Emilia)
「Thank….you」(Dee)
「Sirius-sama, everyone…thank you」(Noel)

Erina-san passed away, but we are smiling.
If we have Sirius-sama and everyone, we can keep smiling.

Erina-san… we are all right now.

So… please watch over us.
