The destination was near Serpent's head and you can see the other sides of Yashiori Island."The sword hilt should be somewhere around here..." Ei said while looking at the map she's holding in her hands.
They then saw a circle of sword hilts 'Does this connect with the 9 others missing?' Ei thought and tried touching it and Genkei appeared "Go finish Fort Fujitou and Fort Mumei first" Genkei said and disappeared.
"I guess we have to finish the remaining 2 first before this" Ei mumbled and turned to the travelers "Let's go, Aether and Paimon" Ei said and the travelers followed her.
While walking, Aether and Paimon tried making small talks to let the boredom of the place disappear and be replaced by sunlight of joy.
Ei felt happy with their company by her side, if only Tomo can join with their laughter and happiness too, she would feel complete.
Paimon's laughter and soft giggles died down and groaned "Paimon is tired of floating around... can we have a rest, Ei? The Sangonomiya camp is just up that mountain!" Paimon said
Aether giggled and also agree with his emergency food "We should take a rest, Ei. My body is tired of fighting" Aether said and Ei nodded "Alright, I'm also feeling drowsy"
They went up the mountain and entered Sangonomiya camp. The soldiers then informed General Gorou about the Raiden Shogun's appearance in the camp.
The trio were having a tea break with Gorou. "Almighty Shogun, have you already attended the meeting with Sangonomiya-sama?" Gorou asked and Ei shook her head "Also, what are you guys doing here in Yashiori Island at 2 am?" Gorou asked
"We're just taking care of something" Aether said and Paimon added "We'll continue it tomorrow! I'm sure Ei agrees. After all, she said she feels sleepy and us too"
Ei fell asleep while sitting "Okay. You can stay here as you please" Gorou said and left the room.
Paimon turned to Ei who was sleeping or meditating "I think Ei is sleeping..." Paimon spoke and Aether placed a blanket over the sleeping god.
|in the plane of euthymia|
"Do you ever feel dull around here, Ei?" Tomo asked while staring at the unchanging sky.
"Well... if someone accompany me for many years, I will not feel dull and will feel rather lively with that someone" Ei said and turned to Tomo "Will you be that someone?" Ei asked
"I'm sure I'll be that someone in a time of dusk or dawn" Tomo said while holding her hand with his "Will you come back to me and be with me for eternity in your next life?" Ei asked and Tomo hummed "I hope so..."
The couple were laying down the sandy ground in eachothers arms, as the sakura petals endlessly falls down.
The time they had while Ei was in a coma was the time they had the chance to spend time together in the outside world.
———flashback———
(This was before Chapter 25 that i didn't add)Tomo and Ei with the Shogunate gone back to Inazuma City to take care of the unconscious Shogun.
Tomo and Ei were walking around the city, as both of them felt nostalgic of the place.
"Inazuma had change a lot since then..." Ei said "How nostalgic~! I remembered me and my friends pranking random citizens back then. Such happy memories~" Tomo squealed at the memories he had in the city.
Tomo then skipped off to a clothing shop and Ei tried to catch up to him "These kimonos reminded me of the time when I dared Kazu-chan to wear it" Tomo said and Ei stared at the rows of kimonos.
"Look at this one, Ei! I think this one will suit you!" Tomo pointed at a purple kimono(the kimono from chapter 27)
Tomo then called the sales lady "Hey, miss! How much is this kimono?" Tomo asked but he didn't got a respond sadly making Ei broke out laughter "Silly, she can't hear you or see you" Ei said and Tomo laughed with her.
Tomo and Ei walked around, as they stopped at a restaurant next to the adventurer's guild "oh boy~! I wish I'm still alive so I can get a taste of Kiminami's delicacies~" Tomo said and watched the old man grilling the fish "I heard about the meals he cook, I'll bought some for you when I wake up" Ei said.
Tomo then grabbed Ei's hand and dragged her with him "huh? Wh-where are we going?" Ei asked, as Tomo took her to Amakame island where they can see the whole city from there.
The night came with the stars glowing up in the sky. Tomo lets go of her hand and sat on the grassy ground.
Ei sat beside him and stared at the night sky "What are we doing here?" Ei asked "Nothing. It's just that this is my favorite place to stay whenever I have nothing to do" Tomo said, just forgetting that place was where he showered the Shogun with curses and death threats.
Tomo sighed and leaned his back against a sakura tree "The moon is so beautiful today" Tomo said "It's always beautiful every night in the clear skies" Ei said.
———end of flashback———
The atmosphere changed and the sky of the euthymia became a hue of pastel.
Ei wants to stay at the euthymia with him for eternity but dreamers have to wake up from their slumber someday.
Butterflies flew around the realm, as that was how Ei was feeling while in his arms.
"Will you love me again even if you forget about me?" Ei asked so suddenly while Tomo rubbed her palm gently "Even if I forgot my memories about you, I will still fall inlove with you" Tomo said with a smile and planted a small kiss on her cheek.
The sky of the euthymia became a hue of light pink just like the petals of the sakura they were sitting on.
"Is what a sunset looks like here in your euthymia? It looks beautiful" Tomo complimented, as Ei nuzzled herself close to Tomo with her arms around his waist.
"Awww~" Tomo hugged her close to him and kissed her forehead. Ei looks up at him with her chin resting on his collar bone.
Tomo chuckles and leans in to kiss her on the nose "boop~" Ei became flustered and buried her face against his chest, as they stayed like that for hours.
