Chapter 483 483: The Road Home (Grand Finale)
"It truly is peaceful."
Once the wedding concluded, the maidens gathered in twos and threes outside the auditorium.
The scorching sun, hanging low in the distant sky of the city, projected a vast swathes of pigment, dyeing the streets red.
Millie had already changed into casual clothes. She hooked her arm around Prankster Mita's shoulder.
"Hey, remember to call me for such a fun thing next time! playing with just you and Miluo is really boring!"
"Wu, wuwu..." Prankster Mita was still weeping. She covered her small bottom, feeling that it was already swollen.
"N-No playing next time..."
"Tch, so boring!" Millie curled her lips.
"Well then, we will be taking our leave first!" Under Short-Haired Mita's urging, the Version 1.15 Mitas headed toward the left side of the street.
Misha waved her hand at them. "Go home early~"
"Okay—"
It was unknown which maiden's responding voice was pulled thinner and thinner along with the narrow, long shadows.
As Alain waved to them, he silently thought about the hard work of the Version 1.15 Mitas.
Currently, the majority of the Mitas he knew, including the Reality Three Mitas, Cool Mita, Cute Mita, Short-Haired Mita, Prankster Mita, Sleepy Mita, and others, were all living under the same roof as him.
However, for the sake of Mita City's future, Big Sister was still working tirelessly, creating newborn Mitas while leading them to adapt to this brand-new world.
Watching their backs disappear around the street corner, Alain couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"It truly is peaceful."
"Not necessarily," Miffy said, walking up to his side.
"?"
Alain felt her tone was a bit strange and couldn't help but glance at her.
Only to discover that the smile on the maiden's side profile carried a trace of mystery.
"After all, who knows if this place is a dreamland?" She looked at Alain, that gentle smile gaining a component of slyness.
"Alain, who knows... perhaps ever since you arrived at Version 1.1, you have been trapped inside a dream by me all along.
"And everything you are experiencing now is actually just a beautiful dream you are having.
"Hehe~ A Dream Ending feels pretty good too, right? Maybe, you will wake up in the next second—"
Bonk!
Before she could finish speaking, Alain gave Miffy a sharp rap on the head.
"Oww... that hurts!" She crouched down, holding her head in defense.
Alain forcibly suppressed the twitching corner of his mouth. "You, ah... don't say that all this hard work I put in turned out to be nothing more than the wedding dress for your Dream Ending!"
"Wu... A Dream Ending actually isn't that bad. Like Alice in Wonderland, that's the ancestor of Dream Endings!"
"You'd better stop talking for now." Alain held his forehead, no longer knowing how to lecture her.
Misha slowly walked over. "Alain, do you have any arrangements later?"
The long-haired maiden had also taken off her wedding dress and changed into everyday attire.
The orange-yellow setting sun reflected on her side profile, outlining a rim of beautiful edge light.
"Miluo, Millie, and I plan to go to a restaurant later!"
"Yahoo! Restaurant! Restaurant!! Restaurant!!!"
"Great! N-No need to do homework—"
Misha said with a smile, "You have to do it~"
Miluo cried.
Hearing Misha's voice, Alain originally wanted to agree.
But his line of sight inadvertently drifted onto Mina's body.
Today's other bride—Mina—hadn't spoken much since leaving the auditorium.
She lowered her head, her hands clasped together, standing by the roadside and looking at the tiny pebbles on the ground, wondering about something.
Alain's Adam's apple bobbed. He silently made a decision and spoke to Misha.
"You three go and eat. I'll stay with Mina for a while today."
"Eh?" Hearing this, Mina turned her head in surprise to look at Alain.
"Oh... so that's how it is." The understanding Misha quickly realized something.
Half-pulling and half-dragging Millie and Miluo toward the other side of the street, she said, "Then, we'll go first. You two be careful later!"
"Mn."
Waving goodbye to the backs of those three, Alain's gaze turned to Mina beside him, inadvertently meeting her eyes.
Clang, clang, clang—
The traffic lights flickered. The cars on the road stopped one by one behind the white line.
The signal light turned from red to green. Noisy pedestrians faced the setting sun, crossing over the zebra crossing.
Alain held Mina's hand, slowly walking across the zebra crossing.
In the midst of this, the maiden's voice sounded.
"Because, I just feel... it's a bit strange."
Alain hadn't asked anything; she was the first to speak up.
He nodded, naturally knowing what Mina wanted to say.
It was nothing more than the fact that she could no longer continue to monopolize him.
Alain remembered clearly that previously, Mina spent the majority of her time alone with him.
Even if there were other Mitas nearby, Mina would rely on her own dominance to force the Mitas to watch her snuggling with Alain.
One could say she was always winning.
But today's wedding event... not only was Misha another bride during the wedding, but at the end of the wedding, everyone also swarmed up together to fight over Alain, the groom.
In the end, the "Three-Person Wedding" turned into a "Everyone's Wedding".
Looking at it this way, Prankster Mita's goal was achieved the moment the other party felt sad.
"It's nothing." Holding her hand, their feet stepped onto the road shoulder. "At least right now, I am yours."
"Mn..." Mina nodded. "But I just feel, it's a bit insufficient."
On the way home, neither of them spoke again.
Alain believed this was a process Mina had to adapt to.
And Mina felt that while Alain was indeed very good to her, this kindness also had two sides.
Since Alain could be this good to her, why couldn't he treat Misha with the same attitude?
"Sigh." "Sigh."
The two sighed simultaneously, their gazes inadvertently weaving together.
"Forget it, why think so much? Let's take it one step at a time," Alain said with a smile.
"Mn, that's true too. Darling, our views coincide~"
They pursed their lips in a smile. The smiles of the young man and the maiden wove together, becoming a pleasing sight for the pedestrians on the road.
"Ah, look! Isn't that Player?"
"Mhm, mhm, seems like he's on a date... let's not disturb him first."
The discussion of several Mitas caused cold sweat to trickle down his back.
In order to protect him, the sole remaining Player, the City Hall had enacted a bill.
Generally speaking, it meant one could not chase and interfere with his normal life.
But Alain also had relevant obligations; he needed to go on dates with the Mitas.
This was his job in Mita City, and it would proceed for a long time... with no salary yet.
Today, Alain in Mita City was still suffering, yet happy.
"Alright, let's go home." Mina slowly leaned toward him, holding his hand.
Alain nodded, allowing the maiden's head to rest on his shoulder.
The two slowly walked toward the direction of the setting sun.
Their dependent shadows were pulled long and narrow, as if penetrating the entire street.
