Chapter 414 - After Story: Emily\'s Proposal (Final)

After the incident, Kei and Kyle headed towards a nearby restaurant to talk. It was a good thing Emily didn’t teleport them outside the dome, or else both Kei and Kyle would’ve gotten lost. After ordering their drinks Kyle faced Kei and sighed.

"Do you understand what you did wrong?" Kyle asked Kei as he took a sip of his coffee.

"...I ... I really don’t know. I was just trying to confirm if you guys were really not the people I knew."

"So you betted your life on a guess?"

"It wasn’t really much of a guess, it was a hypothesis I arrived after thinking about it properly."

"An educated guess nonetheless is still a guess. I will ask you once more, so you risked your life on a guess?"

"... I did bet my life on a guess..."

"So now, do you understand why Emily was angry?" Kei tried his hardest to think about it, but he couldn’t get the answer. He then shook his head as he responded.

"I don’t understand why she’s angry, in fact shouldn’t I be the one who’s angry for her doing all this?"

"It’s like you haven’t gotten use to my little sister’s selfishness. She did all that because she could no longer wait for your proposal and wanted to do it herself." A sudden realization dawn upon Kei.

’I see... She certainly would’ve done something as ridiculous as kidnapping me if that was her reason. Still, I wonder why she got angry?’

"Sir Kyle, can you please tell me why she was so angry?"

"I thought that among those in that ridiculous club of yours, you would be the one who has the highest EQ." Kyle couldn’t help but sigh before he continued. "My sister and I have lost our parents early on in life, you do remember that right?"

"Of course I do, how could I ever forget."

"Then you must understand, most of my sister’s selfishness stems from that past of ours. You see my sister, might look like she’s always confident, always happy, yet the truth is deep inside my little sister is insecure, and afraid. She scared to lose those things that she finally acquired using her own power. Among all of you, she’s the one who’s scared of losing those important to her. Now do you understand why she got angry?"

"... Because I gambled my life, and was actually ready to die... I didn’t think of her feelings, I was actually only thinking about mine. The failed proposals, the bet, my insecurities, all I was thinking about was myself. I was actually trying to marry her, to share my world with her, but in the end, I failed and I only thought about myself... I guess I was the selfish one." Kei weakly smiled as he spoke.

"Heh, took a while to realize that. So now what should you do?"

"I should apologize to Emi."

"And?"

"I will propose to her, this time I won’t fail."

"Good, so now go."

"Umm, do you know where she went?"

"Aren’t you the guy that can gather all the information in this dome? Aren’t you the person who can find someone with only a few clues? Aren’t you Kei Kaido of the Mercenary Club?" Hearing what Kyle said, Kei couldn’t help but smile.

"Thanks Sir Kyle."

"No need for that since your going to marry my sister. You should call me onii-chan as well."

"O-o-o Onii-s... Onii-san..." Kei blushed as he said those words. He then bowed and left the restaurant.

"Well, I guess that’s acceptable for now, but you better improve later."

...

Emily was at the roof of the dome and was looking at the sky. The world had truly change, as the birds at the sky were the size of an airplane, there were even some mythical beings like wyverns flying above. Usually Emily would be excited as she looked at the changing world. Yet today she only felt dejected.

’I can’t believe I actually slapped Kei! Wasn’t I going to propose to him, yet how did it end up like that?’ Emily ruffled her hair in irritation.

’I shouldn’t have done something so elaborate and kidnapped him. Of course, Kei would react like that... I should probably apologize to him.’

"I wonder if Kei would forgive me?" Emily mumbled to herself.

"I’m the one who should be asking forgiveness." Emily was shocked as she turned around. There standing behind her was Kei.

"How did you find me?"

"Have your forgotten who I am? I’m Kei Kaido of the Mercenary Club, even if you try to hide in the underworld I’ll still be able to find you." Kei confidently replied with a smile on his face. Seeing him act like that Emily couldn’t help but giggle.

"Now that’s the Emi I know. Looking at the sky while being melancholic isn’t your style."

"Aren’t you angry, that I did something like that?"

"Why would I be angry, isn’t that something you do normally? I should be the one to apologize. Even though I already knew it was you, I still did what I did. I shouldn’t have done something like that." Kei sat down beside Emily as he spoke.

"Even so, it’s my fault for doing something like that. If it was the others, they would’ve gotten angry and attacked me." Emily spoke while looking at the bright blue sky.

"That’s not something to feel sorry about. If you stop doing these things, then you wouldn’t be the Emily Hunt that I fell in love with." Emily was surprised to hear what Kei said and turned her head towards Kei. When she turned her head she saw that Kei was kneeling on one knee in front of her and had box with a beautiful ring inside.

"Emily Hunt, I know that I might not be the brightest nor am I the strongest, but I’m sure that I’m the person who loves you the most. To me you are my whole world, my everything. So how about we have fun until our end comes. Emily Hunt, will you marry me?"

Emily was shocked at first, but after a while she smiled as tears glistened in her lovely eyes. She then gave her answer.

"No."

"Huh?" Kei wasn’t expecting her to answer that and got a little panicky. It was at that moment Emily also knelt on one knee in front of Kei and showed him a ring similar to his.

"Love is never simple, it’s always unexpected and uncertain. Yet even knowing all that I want to be with you. From now on, I want to spend all and every single one of my days until i die playing with you, bickering with you, playing pranks with you, sharing my feelings and my everthing, only with you. Kei Kaido, will you marry me? You better say yes." Emily showed the brightest smile as the sun shone down upon them.

Kei who was panicking moment ago looked at Emily dumbfounded, he was mesmerized by her dazzling smile, but after a few seconds he scratched his head and sighed.

’This is the woman I love, always unpredictable. Well, that’s what’s cute about her.’

"Yeah, of course I’ll marry you."
