Chapter 37 Sis-con
"Kiana, don't sacrifice yourself when there are people willing to sacrifice for you," Amane said, embracing Kiana. "I'm here to protect you with everything I have. You have me as your boyfriend, Theresa as your aunt, Chisato, Mei, Bronya, Amou, Luo Yan, Yuna, Fu Hua, and Artoria as your friends and sisters who are ready to support you. So, don't carry the burden alone, okay?"
He continued, explaining that the Kaslana's oath was meant for those who take the easy way out and sacrifice themselves foolishly.
Theresa nodded in agreement in the background, while Kallen stared at the ground, questioning what she would do to protect humanity if she couldn't sacrifice herself.
"Then what about you, Amane? What do you stand for?" Kallen asked, wanting to know his viewpoint.
"If someone tries to mess with me, they should be ready for things not going as they planned," Amane replied. He was prepared to destroy any obstacles in his path. If someone attempted his peaceful life he was ready to destroyed them. "And I would quickly destroy them without any hesitation."
At first, he would make them believe their plan was working smoothly, but then he would slowly break it down piece by piece until their plan stopped working altogether.

Meanwhile, at Saint Freya, Chisato stood in front of everyone inside the cafe.
"Alright, everyone, let's get things ready before Amane returns. We're throwing him a surprise party!" Chisato announced to the others, putting her feet up on the table like a Yakuza. "I'll go pick up Mom and Dad. Amou, you're in charge of decorating the cafe."
"I take back what I said, you're responsible for picking up Mom and Dad," Chisato said, changing her mind. Despite Amou's fondness for cute things, she wasn't skilled at decorating.
"Hey!" Amou protested when she heard Chisato changing her mind.
"Come on, we all know you're not great at decorating, and Gu Yuena was much better at it," Chisato said, and Amou felt like she'd been struck by an arrow hearing her opinion.
"The Bronya, should get ready. Amane-Onii-Sama's mother and father will be coming later," Bronya said as she rushed into her bedroom.
"I should start getting ready too," Mei said as she hurried into her room, taking a moment to help Chisato and Gu Yuena first.
"I'm curious to meet his mother and father, but why does Bronya and Mei needed to prepare herself?" Luo Yan asked, standing next to Chisato.
"Just think of it as her meeting her future mother-in-law and father-in-law," Chisato replied as she decorated the wall.
"I should go greet my future mother and father-in-law," Himeko said as she hurriedly hid all of her alcohol inside her room. She took a sip of it, not realizing that she had already drunk four bottles.
"Himeko was the epitome of an adult drunkard," Gu Yuena remarked, observing her colleague consume alcohol and eventually become drunk.
"Could someone please explain to me what's going on here and why I'm here?" Yuna asked, but the others ignored her question and assigned her tasks. She happily helped them, gradually forgetting her initial question.

Inside a cell, a cute girl with the exact same face as Rin was crying.
"Please, release me from this place," the girl pleaded with the guards, her tears falling. However, they ignored her pleas. "Onee-chan, please let me meet my Onee-chan," she muttered. Just then, a black portal opened nearby, and a group of people emerged from it.
"Urgh... I feel so tired. I'll never use time travel again," Amane groaned, regretting his decision to travel back 50,000 years into the past. He was now suffering from an unimaginable migraine.
Leaning on Kiana for support, he looked around and asked, "Are we in a prison?" Kiana glanced around the surroundings and noticed a complete copy of Rin.
"Who are you?" the complete copy of Rin inquired, looking at them curiously and wiped her tears.
"We're just visitors, and I'm Fujimiya Amane," Amane introduced himself as the migraine slowly subsided and flick his finger.
Suddenly, the cramped cell expanded, transforming into a larger space complete with a sofa, TV, computer, kitchen, and even a bathroom and a five set of bedroom.
"H-How?" The girl was taken aback as the entire prison cell transformed into a modern-looking room.
"Now it's much easier to move around," Theresa remarked, lying down on the bed. "I'm tired; I need some sleep."
"I'm going to sleep too," Kiana added, lying down next to Theresa.
"Onee-chan," the complete copy of Rin said, noticing Sakura.
"Sorry, but I think you might be mistaken. I don't mind if you call me big sister," Sakura said, pointing at her sister and making the copy of Rin smile. They introduced themselves to each other.
"Hello, I'm RIN," the copy of Rin said, feeling a bit awkward talking to someone who looked exactly like her.
"I'm Yae Rin. Nice to meet you," Rin replied, striking up a conversation with her.
"Am I in heaven?" Sakura wondered aloud as she looked at her exact copy.
"Sis-con," Amane teased, causing Sakura to flinch.
"I-I'm not a sis-con," Sakura denied, blushing. "Please stop teasing me, Anata."
"My~ looks like you chose to call me Anata," Amane teased again, making Sakura's blush deepen.
"The food is delicious!" Kallen exclaimed, her mouth full of food.
"Calm down, Kallen. The food won't run away from you," Amane said as he handed her a glass of water because she was choking on the food.
"Thank you." Kallen give her thanks to Amane as she continue devouring the food.
"Rin, let's get some rest now," Sakura said as she picked up her sister and settled her onto the bed near Theresa's room.
"Well, it looks like it's just the three of us," Amane remarked, glancing at RIN.
"Three?" RIN asked, giving him a questioning look.
"Oh, this is Higokumaru," Amane explained, pointing to the sleeping girl in his hair.
"Such a cutie," RIN commented, eagerly waiting to hug the adorable little fox on top of his head.
"Want to play some games?" Amane asked, turning to Rin.
"Sure," Rin replied eagerly, relieved to finally have someone to talk to.

Outside the cell, two girls were sprinting at full speed toward the lower section of the prison cell until a white-haired man blocked their path..
"Seele, stand behind me," a complete copy of Sakura said.
"Sakura, I must stop you here," a white-haired man said as he blocked Sakura's path.
"Kevin! I have to save my sister!" Sakura shouted in frustration.
"She was a Herrscher, Sakura," Kevin answered, pointing his sword at her. "Even though you're my comrade, I have to stop you."
"Don't underestimate me, Kevin," Sakura said, getting into a stance.
Suddenly, an earthquake shook the area, causing both of them to halt their impending fight.
"Mei, what's happening?" Kevin asked, checking the projection on his watch.
"Parvati and Ganesha are fighting near the HQ. Kevin, I need you to deploy and eliminate the Honkai beast," Mei answered, prompting Kevin to glance at Sakura before he left.
"Let's go, Seele," Sakura said, and the two of them sprinted towards the elevator.
They defeated a group of Mecha and reached the prison cell. "Rin, I'm here to rescue you!" Sakura exclaimed as she broke open the door. However, she was taken aback by the large number of people inside the apparently small cell. She soon realized that the cell's interior was much more spacious than it appeared from the outside.
"Sorry, Onee-san but I'm not the Rin you're calling there is your Rin." Yae Rin said as she got hugged by the counterpart of her sister and pointed at the girl playing games with Amane.
"Told you, we should go that way." RIN said. as she and Amane always got lost but for unkown reason they always got a god tier equipment.
"Onee-chan," Higokumaru shouted as she transformed back into her human form and hug Sakura.
"Ah Onee-san!" Higokumaru shouted as she transformed back into her human form and hug Sakura.
Sakura glanced to her right and saw Rin, then to her left and saw another Rin. When she looked in front of her, she saw a fox girl who also resembled Rin. "A-Am I in heaven?" Sakura asked, bewildered by the presence of three individuals who shared the exact features of her sister.
