Super God: If I punch you, you will die

"Hiyo-kun said this is your first time attending a fireworks festival, so it's not your first time watching fireworks either, is it?"

"Please don't treat me like a fool. I've seen it in the video."

"I understand." Lin Yan almost couldn't help but laugh. Generally speaking, it's impossible for no one to have participated in a temple fair, but Chizuru Himeragi is the first, which is indeed different from the others.

"However, the fireworks also looked somewhat melancholic."

"is it?"

"How magnificent and exhilarating it is when it bursts into bloom, and how heartbreaking it is when it fades away. But this ethereal feeling is one of the reasons why fireworks are so beautiful," said Chizuru Himiro. Her next sentence, however, was drowned out by the fireworks and cheers around her: "Lin Yan is just like a firework."

"Sorry, I didn't hear you. What did you just say?" Lin Yan hadn't heard what Chizuru Himawari said, so he asked again.

Chizuru Himeragi's expression underwent a subtle change; she seemed both shy and nervous. She shook her head and said to Lin Yan.

"It's nothing, nothing at all."

A bitter taste settled in Chizuru's heart. The happier and more precious she was now, the more painful and reluctant she would be to part. Hadn't she experienced this countless times before? No matter how much emotion she poured into it, parting was still inevitable.

Sometimes, emotions are beyond our control.

Her heart was so agitated.

Fireworks, however dazzling, are fleeting, and the boy before her was like those fireworks, destined to disappear from her world. The fireworks display abruptly ended. The adults' celebration continued, but the minors had to go home.

"I'm so happy today. Thank you so much for inviting us, Oogami." Asahi was genuinely grateful to Oogami and Shin, and Asahi felt the same way.

They are Tamaki Moka's knights, protecting the princess.

"I also enjoy playing around with my friends like this, so I should be the one saying thank you." The expert smiled shyly, feeling that he hadn't done anything worthy of thanks; it was all just a small favor, and he didn't deserve such gratitude at all.

"Then we'll be going now."

Tamaki Moka waved her hand and left, escorted by Asahi and Inukai Akatsuki. Whether these three childhood friends would remain lifelong friends was pointless to speculate on; only time would tell.

"Okay, could you please take me home?" Chizuru Himeragi suddenly said to Yoru.

"!?"

Lin Yan was slightly taken aback.

Reina Kariyuu also looked astonished.

Ye Ming was also full of doubt.

"This..." Ye Ming didn't know how to answer. Whether he agreed or refused, it seemed a bit inappropriate. He glanced at Lin Yan and said to Himawari Chizuru, "Although I am very happy to have received your nomination, Lin Yan is more suitable in terms of direction. I will take Onoya-kun home."

"That's it."

"Oh, sorry."

"Where should I be the one saying sorry?" Chizuru Himeragi didn't show much emotion, seemingly unashamed about being rejected, and then said to Lin Yan, "Then, Lin Yan, I'll have to trouble you."

"Okay." Lin Yan readily agreed, and then said to the great god and Chen Shuo, "Please take care of Shou Sheng, A-He, and make sure he gets home safely."

"Okay!" The great god and his minister nodded confidently.

So Oogami Kazuomi and Kariyuu Reina, Yoake Ryo and Onoya An, and Hayashi En and Hishiro Chizuru all left, heading in different directions.

"Um... Lin Yan..."

Lin Yan's sleeve was suddenly tugged. He turned around and saw Chizuru Himeragi's delicate face and innocent eyes. She was exceptionally beautiful today, possessing the natural beauty of a young girl. Especially since she had dressed up specially for today, she was even more captivating.

"Oh?" Lin Yan looked at Himawari Chizuru with a puzzled expression, wondering what she wanted to say. However, judging from her expression, she seemed to want his help with something. In fact, no matter what it was, Himawari Chizuru would never make an unreasonable request, and Lin Yan would agree to it.

Are you free next?

"Yes, yes."

"Could you stay with me a little longer?"

The streetlights were dim, and Oogami and Kari sat side by side on a park bench, surrounded by an unusual tranquility. The place was somewhat secluded, with few passersby. The two sat in silence, seemingly waiting for the other to speak first, while Lin Yan and Himawari Chizuru followed behind them, hiding in a corner.

"You mean this!?" Lin Yan pointed to Kariyuu Reina and Oogami Kazuomi in the distance.

“Yes.” Chizuru Himeragi did not deny it.

"Is this spying?!" Lin Yan warned again.

"Is there a problem with this?" Chizuru Hishiro asked, seemingly unconcerned.

"So you want to see how the master confesses his love?" Lin Yan asked again.

“That’s right.” Chizuru Himawari nodded, then continued, “Because I don’t understand. Friendship, love, and even knowing that liking someone is meaningless—all the feelings I’ve tried so hard to avoid are just too hard to comprehend, and they frustrate me so much. I want to understand, yet I don’t want to understand. I don’t even understand myself, and my head really hurts.”

Chizuru Himeragi's idea is both funny and cute.

"So you think you can find the answer after reading their confessions?"

"I'm sorry for dragging you into doing this with me."

"Hiyo-kun is really passionate about research."

"Can't you?"

"No, I think this is a good thing," Lin Yan said to Himawari Chizuru. He actually understood why Himawari Chizuru wanted to do this, but he wouldn't stop her. Some things she had to do herself to understand the truth of certain matters.

You have to find the answer yourself.

Oogami Kazuomi, who was sitting on the bench, said to Kari Reina, "Are your feet alright? Didn't you say your feet hurt and you wanted to rest?"

"Oh yeah! But it's all over now."

Silence fell once again, and at this moment, the usually outgoing Reina Kariyu was unusually quiet.

"I'm very happy today."

"Yes."

Chizuru Himeragi, standing to the side, muttered to herself, "It's like the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is," growing increasingly anxious for the two of them.

"It was just saying 'I like you,' but I didn't expect it to take so long."

"Excuse me, Himyo-kun, love is not something you can easily say out loud."

Suddenly, Oogami Kazutomi spoke, and his voice made Himeshiro Chizuru and Lin Yan fall silent. Himeshiro Chizuru looked nervously at Oogami Kazutomi and Kariyu Rena.

"Kari, I like you."

"Oh? What?"

"I finally mustered up a lot of courage to confess, and what kind of expression did you make?"

"Oh!"

"See? That's the kind of reaction you'll get. I knew you'd be angry. I must have misjudged the timing."

"They're not angry at all!"

"He's clearly angry."

"I'm not angry!"

"Ouch!" Poor Oogami Kazutomi got hit again. He rubbed his head and looked pitifully at Kariyu Reina.

"Are you serious?"

"What?"

"Of course. Who would say something so embarrassing just to joke around? What? Don't you think I'm believable?"

"No, that's not it! I just can't believe it!" Reina Kari said shyly, barely daring to look at his face.

"It's still the same!"

"What's the difference in meaning?"

"I really considered many possibilities beforehand, but I never imagined it would turn out like this."

"I was so happy you asked me to watch the fireworks with you today. At first, I thought you only asked me, but then I found out you invited everyone, which was a little disappointing. But then I thought, that's more like you, so I let it go. Remembering you said you might go to a university outside of school, I felt like I'd regret it later if I didn't confess, so I decided to confess to you today. I've liked you since first year. Please go out with me." Reina Kariyu's eyelids were slightly lowered, and through the light, her thick eyelashes were visible; her blushing cheeks were simply hidden by the darkness.

She had to muster up the courage to say so much.

If it happens again, I'm afraid I won't have the courage to say it again.

Oogami and Takashi were so immersed in happiness that they didn't even realize what was happening, which made Kariyuu Reina increasingly shy.

"They finally mustered up a lot of courage, and look at their reaction!"

"No, normally everyone would be startled, right?" Oogami Kazutomi quickly and gently explained to the annoyed Kari Reina.

"Wanting to confess your feelings to someone, but instead being the one being confessed to, would normally be a shock to anyone!"

"I'm going to return that sentence to you verbatim!"

"Ouch!!" She was hit again, but it was also a happy feeling. Reina Kari was just shy, that's why she reacted like that.

"Normally, they should have discovered it long ago, right? Even Lin Yan and Onoya, who just transferred in this year, have discovered it."

"What!?"

Oogami and Tatsumi were shocked. It turned out that everyone else had noticed Reina Kari's feelings for him, but he had been completely oblivious and had been troubled by it for a long time. Two people who were heading in the same direction had missed so much time because of Oogami and Tatsumi's cluelessness and lack of understanding.

"Those two people know too? They know how you feel?"

"Probably. They must have noticed."

"I've always been terrified of what would happen if I got dumped. If I couldn't chat with Kario like before, I'd be doomed. But those guys actually..."

"I'm sorry. How should I put it? I've never talked about these kinds of topics with my friends before, like who I like or who is dating whom. That's probably why I'm a bit slow on the uptake in this area."

"Just a little?"

"To correct it, it should be 'very'."

"very good."

"I was completely unaware of Shousheng's feelings, and I didn't even realize my own feelings for him. After Lin Yan reminded me, I thought about it for a long time before I finally became aware of it. How boring it would be if Shousheng wasn't around, and how disgusted I would feel if someone else touched Shousheng."

"It wasn't until recently that I realized I've probably liked Kariwo for a long time."

"What I just said was incredibly embarrassing!"

"Who would feel shy only after they've finished speaking? I'm the one who should feel embarrassed!"

"Um, Kariyo-kun, may I... hold your hand?"

"can."

A sweet, flirtatious young couple, even the gloomy atmosphere around them seemed to be tinged with pink—it was practically a giant sandstorm scene. It was truly beautiful; two people who liked each other could openly express their feelings like this, ensuring they wouldn't miss out.

For some people, missing out is a lifetime's loss; by then, it's too late for regrets. So, never miss out.

"My heart feels like it's going to jump out of my throat," Rena Kari whispered to herself, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest.

"Are you alright? If you really jump out, I'll catch you." Oogami Kazuomi looked sincerely at Kariyu Reina. From this moment on, their relationship was different from before. Although Oogami Kazuomi's words sounded childish, they were sincere.

Reina Kariyu punched the shoulder of the great god next to her.

"You're kidding, master, you're bound to miss catching that creamy hand."

"Let's go back." Oogami Kazutomi looked around and saw that it was completely dark and very late. He knew he had to take her home, so he said to Kariyu Reina, "Sorry for making it so late."

"It's ok."

Rena Kario said.

As Oogami Kazuomi stood up and walked forward, Kari Reina called out to him.

"Great God!"

Reina Kari mustered her courage and reached out her hand to Oogami and his treasury.
