"This... might be difficult," Kanae said. "After all, you don't even know who she likes, and I can't think of anyone either."
"Ugh..." Tetsu no Sosuke sighed. "I've gone through the Pillars one by one, and none of them seems to fit. Do you think she might like one of the Swordsmen? I wonder how much potential he has. If he can grow into it, I suppose that wouldn't be so bad. If he's talented, I could even bring him in and train him... Then, whenever she wants to see him, he'll have to get past me first."
"So you still want revenge."
"Absolutely!"
Tetsu no Sosuke had made up his mind.
"All right, I'll ask her for you," Kanae said. "Though I get the feeling she won't tell me either."
"You're her sister."
"She's had a mind of her own since she was little. And ever since she joined the Demon Slayer Corps, even though I'm a Pillar, she's always tried to protect me."
Kanae smiled. "Whether I can get the truth out of her depends on whether she wants to tell me."
A huge shadow seemed to loom over Tetsu no Sosuke. "Surely... by the time we find out, they won't already be getting married?"
"It's possible." Kanae noticed the miserable look on his face and covered her mouth, laughing. But as she laughed, she began to feel nauseous again.
"It's been getting worse lately..." Kanae gently rubbed her belly. "You're getting a little mischievous, aren't you?"
Author's note:
P.S. My head hurts. I've been thinking about my next book lately... I want to write a series that brings several anime worlds together, but I don't know where to start. Are there any anime you like that you'd recommend?
Another P.S. This chapter was supposed to
