Chapter 608 - Will Bring About a Change

A few moments after Alice disappeared and things have calmed down Fate-san gives up and lets out a sigh, before she turns to me and spoke.

[S- So, whats the matter, Kai-chan? D- Did you have something for me?]

[Ah, no, I heard that Fate-san is sick, so I came to visit you]

[Sick? Errr, Kai-chan? Im still a G.o.d, remember? A Supreme G.o.d How can I be sick?]

[Eh?]

Arehh? Thats kind of different from what Alice told me. N- No, wait. Even if thats so, there is no doubt that there is something strange with Fate-san.

[I mean, in the first place, what makes you think Im even sick]

[W- Well, I heard it from Alice]

[From Shall-tan? Geez, shes saying random things again]

[And also, I thought of this because Fate-san is working!]

[Thats true. I guess I might be sick.]

This might have a very rude thing for me to say, but Fate-san was easily convinced when I said that shes sick because shes working. Unnn, that aside, I wonder whats happening?

In a way, this is something that Fate-san would typically say, so I think shes starting to get back to how she usually is.

[W- Well, anyway, Im glad to see youre doing well. I was a little worried about you since you havent been coming to visit much lately.]

[Ahh Uuuu That is..]

[Fate-san?]

[I- I see, I finally understood what Shall-tan meant when she told you I was sick. No, I do know about such sickness but Uuuuu.]

For some reason, Fate-san started trembling again. What is this? She doesnt really seem to be sick, but she seems a little different from the usual Fate-san.

Fate-san basically is the type of person who speaks exactly what she thinks, so its unusual for her to react in a way that looks like shes hesitating to say something.

As Fate-san seems to be troubled about something, lets try to sort out the information I have for a bit. Fate-sans condition clearly looked different from usual. And Alice said that Fate-san is sick in a way.

Moreover, Fate-san herself seemed to have some idea of what was going on with her. Even though she had just mentioned earlier how her getting sick is impossible

Based on this information, I can conclude that Fate-sans illness is one of those mental illnesses. Lets just ignore how she was working, acting differently from how she usually acts due to her confused mind, for the moment.

However, its hard to imagine that Fate-san is depressed or anything like that. In fact, she doesnt seem to be depressed at all.

Unnn? What could it be No, I dont think this is the case but should I ask her that? If its not, this would just end up as a funny story

[Ummm, Fate-san.]

[Eh? W- What?]

[Fate-sans sickness Its not like its love sickness or something like that, right]

[Uweeehh!? W- W- W- What are you]

Arehh? Seriously?

[Y- Youre wrong! Its not decided that that is the case I dont feel like its anything close to that]

It was a very quiet voice unlike how she usually speaks, but I managed to hear it. I see, shes not convinced that its love, but its like she had a faint feeling that love is starting to sprout from within her? Thats why shes confused

Wait a moment. In that case, the target of that lovesickness is it me?

N- No, thats not something decided yet In the first place, I think Fate-san said that shes only interested in people where her abilities dont work, so thinking about this, the people of the opposite gender that fall under this category Arehh? What is this? Im kind of starting to feel embarra.s.sed.

[..]

[..]

Both Fate-san and I couldnt come up with any more words to say, so a subtle, yet heavy silence arrived.

After a few moments of such silence, it was Fate-san who spoke first.

[Shes right Its just as Shall-tan said, this isnt like me at all.]

[Errr, Fate-san?]

[Kai-chan! Id like to ask you a request.]

[A request?]

[I might be in love with Kai-chan. However, I dont know. I dont know if this feeling really is love Thats why, Id like to make sure.]

[Make sure?]

[Go on another date with me.]

Those words must have taken an awful lot of courage to say. Fate-san looked bewildered. She was confused by these unknown feelings that had begun to grow in her heart No, perhaps, she may even be afraid of it.

But even so, she chooses to confront her fears and asks me this. Looking at her small trembling body

[I understand.]

I thought it would be a betrayal to Fate-san to turn away or give a vague reply to her words filled with her courage. Thus, I accepted Fate-sans suggestion.

Fate-san is not the only one who has to confront her feelings through this date. When she gave me her answer, I couldnt give her a half-hearted reply after all

Dear Mom, Dad Date. Hearing just this word, it sounds sweet to ones ears. However, contrary to such an image, a date appointment has been settled in an atmosphere that feels like were about to face a serious challenge. Fate-san and I am sure of it. Regardless of the outcome of this date, the relations.h.i.+p between Fate-san and I will bring about a change.

The first character design for Volume 4 is now available in the Activity Report.

Serious-senpai : [Wait a moment, Kaito Youre not one of those dense protagonists who turn deaf sometimes!?]

? ? ? : [Ah~~ Thats quite an intel regarding Kaito-san. Speaking of which, Kaito-san has quite the energy when he faces this matter, so I guess we can expect that this would develop to a sweet level.]

Serious-senpai : [Thats the worst development for me though Protagonist, hes really my natural enemy.]
