"...It seemed I had underestimated Mr. Yuuki."
Looking at the scene before her, Momo's expression was somewhat complicated.
"I really never thought there would be so many girls who felt that way about him... Ugh... Well, it wasn't exactly unexpected, but..."
"That's why your plan was never feasible in the first place."
Nana curled her lip, then punched a charging little white monster flying away.
"Isn't it about time you gave up?"
"Then, Nana, are you planning to go on blind dates in the future? Like our sister? Going on blind dates with some guy who popped out of nowhere? Getting married?"
"No way!"
Nana immediately jumped up at that.
"Besides, my sister and I are different. She has to inherit the throne of Deviluke Star, but we don't have to do that...!"
"Then do you have anyone better than Mr. Yuuki in mind?"
"Ugh... I'll definitely find someone someday!"
"I don't want to let this opportunity slip away."
However, Momo paid no attention to Nana's rebuttal. She stared solemnly at the battlefield below.
"I'm afraid I'll never find another lover as outstanding as Mr. Yuuki. If I gave up now, I would only regret it more later. I don't want to abandon my own happiness over some trivial matter, then convince myself that I can still wait for Prince Charming—only to subconsciously compare every man I meet to Mr. Yuuki and find none of them acceptable. By the time I come to my senses, I'll already be past the right age for marriage... and can only settle for marrying some random man..."
"I-It can't be that exaggerated..."
Hearing Momo describe that future, Nana shuddered uneasily. For some reason, she felt that the future Momo described was disturbingly realistic.
"I think you should honestly face your own feelings too, Nana."
