===Part 7===

“Ah!?”

The Zashiki Warashi in a red yukata woke up.

She had been nodding off and she vaguely recalled some kind of grand dream.

“Nee-chaaan.”

Young Shinobu was calling her from somewhere.

It was a sunny afternoon and she was in the thatch-roof house. She slowly stood up from where she had been leaning against a column near the porch and she approached the voice she heard in the kitchen.

This was odd.

There was something odd with the thread of fate.

“Where are you, Nee-chan?”

“What is it, Shinobu? That’s the bucket for kitchen garbage.”

“Oh, Nee-chan!”

She recognized that response. It was not that she had predicted it. She remembered it. Everything was feeling more and more off.

She felt like she had not just had a dream. But dreams faded and were forgotten within a few minutes of waking up. Only a vague sense of familiarity remained.

“C’mon, we can’t get started without you, Nee-chan!”

“?”

The Hyakki Yakou Prototype Ver. 39 Zashiki Warashi side of her was telling her something.

There was more than one thread of fate here. No, it was technically just one, but that long, long thread was folded back over itself so it looked like several threads running in parallel.

“Come here. At Mach speed!”

He tugged on her hand.

“You come too, giant pig.”

“Boo. Sure thing.”

“You come for a bit too, White Queen.”

“Eh heh heh. I’d do anything if it meant playing with my brother.”

They were of course(?) headed to the tea room. And a vague thought came to the Zashiki Warashi when she saw the people gathered there.

Yes.

That hellish twintails girl was there with a knowing smile as if to say the Zashiki Warashi would understand what this meant later.

It went beyond a mere dream. It was possible this involved the creation of the universe itself. And was it possible this was not just the second loop?

“Okay! Since we’re all here, let’s do one of those group blind date things!!”

Mission: Stop the paradox.

An extreme rejection reaction may have triggered in destiny itself because those two had gotten together when the same had not happened in their main series. Just like the anaphylactic shock that was a malfunction of something meant to protect the body!!
