A few weeks later after the battle with Hans...

Chomusuke, Inosuke, and Tama were all outside the mansion playing with a butterfly.

Tama: Meow, meow! [Hey, look at this butterfly!]

Inosuke: Kyu, kyu, kyu! [Let's eat it!]

Chomusuke: Nyaw. [Ok.]

It is early in the morning, and Zoren is peacefully sleeping in his bedroom. He felt that Aqua wasn't beside him as usual. Where could she be?

Zoren's sleep was interrupted when he smelled the aroma of food.

Zoren: [sniffs] This smell... Is that... Food?

The presence of a familiar goddess entered his room carrying a tray of food.

Aqua: Rise and shine, Zoren! I've made you breakfast, dear!

Zoren barely opened his eyes and rubbed them to see Aqua with a happy smile and wearing a different outfit.

Zoren: Wait... Is that tea? Not hot water as usual? Heh. Looks like you've started to learn how to control your water powers. Right, Aqua?

Aqua quickly looked away from Zoren and twiddled her thumbs.

Aqua: W-Well, I-It's just that... After that incident with cleaning the hot springs, I felt lousy. After all, I have unintentionally ruined the lives of my followers...

Zoren: ...

Aqua: But I won't give up! I will not stop getting better and I'll do what it takes to fulfill your hopes and dreams!

Zoren: I've never doubted you at all, Aqua. Right from when we first started falling for each other.

Aqua: Zoren...
