The mothers who are still alive need their care...

"But... but I really can't hold back anymore."

Eyes are red.

"Idiot! Why are you crying?"

Nango Yuna, whose face had been tense, saw Nango Mirai in front of her bowing her head and crying, and her voice trembled.

Hoarse yet powerful.

"Idiot! Because you cried, I'm crying now too!"

Yuna Nango finally couldn't take it anymore.

Just like laughter is highly contagious.

The same goes for crying.

Not to mention the sound of her own sisters, with whom she spent every day, crying.

Yuna Nango felt even more empathetic.

She was cursing Nanxiang Future as an idiot, crying and sobbing uncontrollably.

But as she said this, tears began to stream down her delicate face without restraint.

It's not just Nango Yuna.

The eldest sister, Nango Nozomi, Nango Shio, and the newly returned Nango Naohiro and Nango Haruto, could no longer contain their emotions.

Crying broke out at that moment.

Until then.

Only after their facade of strength crumbled did they truly realize what was happening.

His father had already passed away.

I truly left them.

She could no longer see her father's deliberately mischievous smile, nor hear his gentle and refined voice.

The sound of crying could not be suppressed.

The mourning hall instantly descended into chaos.

Nango Sato, who had been watching all this from the sidelines, did not offer any comfort.

because...

That's their father...

She turned her pink eyes to the photo in the mourning hall.

died.

died.

Their father has passed away.

If they aren't even given the right to cry... then I, as a mother, would be considered derelict in my duty, wouldn't I?

"Senior Nanxiang."

She murmured the name she had said to her husband countless times before, gently stroking the cold edge of the photo frame.

I miss you so much...

She murmured this to herself.

He slowly closed his eyes.

You passed away, and at your funeral, your daughters were in complete chaos.

They can't accept your passing; their voices have become hoarse at this moment.

However, after crying, they fell silent again.

The silent funeral continued into the following day.

[The following morning, with the help of the abbot of the temple who was presiding over the funeral, your body was wrapped in a cold coffin and buried next to your wife.]

Your daughters did not cremate you, perhaps because they did not want to see your body damaged, and instead spent a great deal of money to bury you in the ground.

Your wife received the same treatment...

[The last time I visited the family cemetery in Nanxiang, a small tree had grown behind your wife's grave.]

The cemetery manager originally wanted to cut down the saplings that hadn't grown yet, but you and Nango Sugar stopped him.

Perhaps this tree is a manifestation of the wives in your hearts, existing in other forms.

[Because Nango Ryo once said that if she were to be reborn, she would want to be a tree, so she wouldn't have to worry about food and drink, and could simply absorb sunlight to eat and drink for free and grow healthily.]

And this wish seems to have been fulfilled at this moment.

The once short trees have now grown tall and shady...

[Green grass and flowers grow underneath...]

On the day you were buried, the sky was a deep blue, the green grass reflected the blue of the sky, and a gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the trees...

After taking one last look at you, Nango Sugar withdrew his gaze and had you buried in a small pit...

"Such a small pit, such a small coffin. Dad always liked open spaces."

Nango Ikuyo's daughter, Nango Makuna, had tears streaming down her face.

The other daughters also had tears blurring their vision after hearing these words.

They couldn't answer that question.

They could only watch as their beloved family member, whom they cherished most in their lives, slowly descended into the pit.

After the funeral, the nine sisters from the Nanxiang family lived together for a long time.

Because during these special times, being alone always makes me think about all sorts of things.

[Furthermore, they live together to better care for Nango Sugar.]

[The sugar from Nanxiang was well cared for by them in his later years.]

[Whatever she wanted, her daughters would always find a way to get it for her and make her happy.]

Nango Sugar is very grateful to her daughters for this.

She also remained steadfast in her resolve.

In this time before you are gone... let her take good care of her daughters.

[Her resolve was so firm that even her decaying life seemed to burst forth with an indescribable vitality.]

"This is really..."

Looking at the various information on the simulation page, Nango Toki in the real world felt a little strange.

how to say.

He's only seventeen or eighteen years old.

That's when I witnessed my own funeral.

Moreover, through the simulated memories, it felt as if I had actually experienced it all.

This made him even more puzzled.

You should know that he's not dead yet.

He shook his head speechlessly, feeling inexplicably heavy-hearted.

Nanxiang Sugar is indeed a strong person.

Even though they are all gone, she still maintains the principles that run deep in her bones...

He continued reading.

I hope to know the results of this simulation.

However, even if a decaying life were to burst forth with new vitality, the result would only be to prolong the lifespan of Nango Sugar by a few more years.

Ultimately, no one in this world can resist the erosion of time.

She began to feel unwell, but even after going to the hospital for a checkup, the results showed that everything was normal.

Nanxiang Sugar knew that her limited life was finally drawing to a close.

In the last moments of her life, she thought of the wishes you had shared together.

[Let's all go on a trip together...and enjoy the beautiful scenery together.]

Therefore, she expressed her wish to her daughters that she could travel one more time in her twilight years... to see the scenery and landscapes they had seen before.

However, her daughters shook their heads and refused her wish.

[Because the doctor had told them that at this time, Nanxiang Sugar needed rest more than anything else.]

Her aging body could no longer withstand the arduous journey of going out.

They loved her so much, they just wanted to keep her by their side for even a little longer.

Sensing her daughters' feelings, Nango Sugar sighed and didn't bring up the trip again.

[It's just about passing each day, each period of time.]

She always had a photograph in her hand.

Those were photos you took at sunset in some unknown wilderness...

[In the photo, Ryo Nanago is elegant and languid, Ichiri Nanago is timid and gentle, Nijika Nanago and Chizuka Nanago are poised and graceful, Ikuyo Nanago and Takina Nanago are dignified and polite, and Akane Nanago stands behind her with a mischievous, devilish smile. Beside her is Rio Nanago, who is also smiling and wearing glasses.]

Amidst this crowd, there is your smile and hers.

You all look so happy in the photo...

[Nanxiang Sugar's health is deteriorating.]

She can easily sit for an entire day, and her energy is getting worse.
