Chapter 1079 - Mission ⑨ : Develop your Relationship!

When I firmly conveyed my feelings to Dr. Vier, she looked very happy, but then her expression changed to one of hesitation.

From what I feel with Sympathy Magic, it seems like she was troubled about something.

[Miyama-kun, I'm glad. Really glad... However, i- is this really alright? After all, I———- [That doesn't matter.] ———-Ahh!]

I roughly understood what she was going to say, so I hugged Dr. Vier's body, interrupting her words.

[No matter what happened in the past, it won't change the way I feel about Dr. Vier now.]

[...I see, fufu, I knew Miyama-kun would say that, but hearing you say that still makes me happy. I don't know if it's really alright though. Should it really be alright for all these happy things to happen for someone like me...]

[Of course, it's alright... Dr. Vier, you can be happy.]

As Dr. Vier spoke, slightly sounding like she's about to tear up, her hands gently moved behind me.

Dr. Vier can be a bit self-deprecating, so I'll have to firmly tell this to her.

[Seriously, Miyama-kun just keeps on saving my heart over and over again. Thank you so much.]

[No, rather than that, I'm sorry for making you wait so long.]

[No, that isn't the case at all. That was all blown away by the happiness I'm feeling so much right now.]

Saying this, she happily smiled. Her expression looked so radiant and irresistibly charming.

[...Well, even though I sounded self-important saying all that, Tre-san had to give me a push from behind.]

[Now that you mentioned it, I'm also the same case. Sister Tre's message told me to "rethink my feelings for Kaito", and it reminded me a little of my first encounter with Miyama-kun. Thinking that I really loved you... I opened Envelope 9, which said "Don't be afraid to accept Kaito's feelings".]

[I guess she knew that Dr. Vier would be scared when the time came.]

[Ahaha, right. I really am no match for Sister Tre.]

Dr. Vier sometimes gets scared at the last minute, just like what she did back with Kuro, so I guess Tre-san realized that and wrote a message telling her not to be scared.

Exchanging a smile, Dr. Vier and I separated our bodies and faced each other.

[Errr, well. Once again, I will be in your care from now on.]

[Unnn. I will also be in your care... Ahh, come to think of it, I need to see Sister Tre's last envelope.]

[Ahh, you're right. She said to open the last envelope after I'm done telling you about my feelings... I wonder what would be written on it?]

[Hmmm. Wouldn't it be "Now, kiss!" or something like that?]

[That certainly sounds like it could happen.]

After exchanging thoughts with Dr. Vier, I took out the last envelope with the number 10 on it. There were no instructions to look at them alone this time, so I decided to check them out with Dr. Vier.

Though we didn't particularly arrange it beforehand, we took out our envelopes in a way that we could see what's written on the other's envelope, both of which had the same content.

『I request some high-class chocolates!』

Seeing the message card with large, bold letters on it, the both of us burst into laughter at the same time.

[This was... an unexpected request for a souvenir huh.]

[Ahaha, as expected of Sister Tre! However, this sure is troubling. There's no way I can refuse this.]

[She did make all those preparations after all.]

What was written on the last envelope was a demand for remuneration for the mediation she did. Seriously, this really was just as expected of Tre-san, her actions were unexpected until the end.

[...You're right. Well then, the sun would still be up for a while, so how about it? Why don't we continue our date and buy chocolates to give to Tre-san along the way?]

[I like that. I'm all for it.]

[With that decided, since we're at it, let's go back to Symphonia Kingdom's Northern Area again...]

Just as I was saying this, I suddenly felt a slight tug on my clothes., so I stopped speaking. The person who was tugging on my clothes was Dr. Vier in front of me, so I tilted my head, wondering what it was...

[Hey, Miyama-kun. Remember when I told you I loved you here back then?]

[Eh? Yes, of course, I remember.]

[Then, do you also remember... the exchange we had after that?]

After saying that, Dr. Vier turned her head towards me and closed her eyes.

Seeing her like that, I remembered the exchange we had back then. After she gave me a surprise kiss on my cheek, Dr. Vier told me that "the kiss on my lips would be when I've come to love her".

Realizing what Dr. Vier was requesting, I put my hand on her shoulder and bending down slightly... I kissed Dr. Vier.
