Morning time, Kuro's POV

So…what day is it now?

"Look, look! They are having a sales-off for that dress. Can you buy it for me?"

Let's do a recap. The first day we arrived, it was Tuesday. In the next day, we found the Mascot and have a new party member, Red. So that day was Wednesday.

"Hey, Kuro! Check it out! They are releasing a new type of engine for the robots! And look, they have imported new blueprints for many kinds of machines too!"

And in the next day, which was Thursday, we went around to turn in the quests and found some small problems the citizens were having and dealt with them instantly. And then Friday, we did some paper works.

"Oh look, there is an ice cream shop! Let's buy some for the others, too!"

So now is Saturday, which means a rest day.

"Look, there's the bikini shop! Nepgear, let's go inside and pick some for us and the others too!"

Normally, I would stay back at the Basilicom (We stay at the Basilicom's guest rooms), play some games, sleep or just laze around.

"Wow, Nepgear, you have such a nice body. Pokey pokey ~" "Stop Weiss! It tickles!"

So how…

"Hey, how about a contest? Who could make my father get a nosebleed wins?" "What kind of contest is that?!" "Kind of contest to see if we are beautiful or not." "That's not a good reason at all!"

did I…

"Ta-da!" "Wait, Weiss, I'm not ready!"

get myself in this situation?

It's a pretty Saturday morning. And now I'm staring at my daughter's and Nepgear's beautiful figures. Or more accurately, how they look like when they are in their new bikinis. Right now both of them are wearing two-piece bikinis, their colors match her hair.

"Well, you girls look… good in those." I answer, a bit half-hearty. Not because it's not the truth, but I cannot find a right word to describe how pretty and *cough* sexy *cough* they are. And I cannot say it directly when we are in public, right?

"Aww, don't be like that. Nepgear, let's find some more!" "Weiss, I think that's enough!" "Nonsense, we are just here for 20 minutes, we have a lot of times!"

"Your daughter is…energetic, sir. And you bring the Goddess to my shop too. Thank you so much." The shopkeeper talks to me after they went back inside the changing room. Most of the shops like this have female owners, the machine-related shops have male owners, and this one is no exception.

"Oh, why don't you pick one for yourself too? I can find something good for that body of yours." I give her a weak smile: "Thanks for your… suggestion, but I don't think I will wear one in the future even if I buy any."

"Well, it's your choice sir. Oh, the other customers are calling. I hope you have a good day."

"Yeah, same to you." After the owner walked to the counter, I sigh and look into the mirror. In the mirror, sitting on the chair is a woman, who is in her 30s. She has long black hair, which reaches to her hip. She wears a white headband, with a small cat face attached at the left side. She wears a black, long dress and a black heel. She also has a necklace, and a bracelet on her left hand. And her eyes, which are black, are beautiful but deadly in their own way. Her chest is around C to D-cups.

You probably know who I am describing, right? No? Then I will tell you. That's me. Yes, the me who look like a teenage, who can slay a class-A Fenrir with little effort, who has the respect from a Mascot herself, and has two kids. Two. How the hell can I be her? If you remembered at the chapter 2, I turned myself into Shanghai and slept so I didn't have to hear Histoires' conversation, not because it is boring, but because I knew it would take a lot of time. Also Schwarz told you about it. The shopkeeper knew it so she called me 'sir'. Your next question would be: "Why the hell do you look like that?" Well, let The Creator returned the time, shall we?


Wednesday, Virtua Forest, Nepgear's POV

After I show him the video, he didn't say anything. He is having a blank look on his face. What happened to him?

Then he takes a step back, and kneels before me. Yes, kneel, not bow, and his head is already touching the ground.

"One full day." What? "I'll let you order me anything for one full day, in exchange for a copy of that record. That also applies to you two, too." He is talking about Schwarz and Weiss.

"What the goodness? Kuro, please stand up! I could just give you a copy if you want to!" The man who could be Death itself is kneeling right before me, a girl whose power cannot reach a fragment of his, and pleading for something I could give him for free. I look to his kids, pleading for help. I receive nervous looks from them, obviously they don't know how to deal with this.

'The Observer, you know him, right? Is there anything I can do for him?'

Sorry, Nepgear. You have to roll with it. And look at his face.

I do it and: 'Why did I listen to him!' Kuro's face is pouting now, and he is giving an expression of a kicked puppy now. Why do you have to do that?! "But, but, it will be unfair to you. That record is priceless, and it's very important to me. I cannot take it for free. Please, I beg you!"

"Uh…uh…" "What took you guys so long? What…what happened here?" IF, Compa and Red returned and saw the scene. Uh…

The Mascot decides to speak up: "They are talking about a record. I don't know what it is about, though."

IF: "Huh? A record? Can you show me, Nepgear?" MY GOODNESS!

"Eh, eh…"

Show it to her.

'But…'

Just show it. She will find out sooner or later.

'Fine…' "Here, IF. You can take a look" I give her my N-Gear, with the record running. IF and Compa watch it, and they are being redder when time passes. When the record reaches the end, Compa turns around, sit down and hug her face, probably because of embarrassment. IF is resembling a tomato now, her red face plus her leaf bow equals tomato, and steams is flowing out of her head now.

"Wwwwwwhy did you record this? That's it! I'm destroying it!" Wait, IF, that's my N-Gear! You can't just…

Too late, she has risen her hands and thrown the N-Gear down. But, while I was expecting any broken sounds, only a wind suddenly blew through us. And… nothing happened.

"Huh?" Both of us look at each other, neither of us have the N-Gear, and it's not on the ground. Then we notice that Kuro is not in his position. We look behind IF and see that he is holding, no, hugging the N-Gear, like he doesn't want to lose it or let it destroyed.

IF: "Hey give it back!" Then she runs towards him, and he runs away. After a while, all of us still can hear them shouting to each other like: "Give it to me now!" and "YOU WILL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE!"

Red is the one to speak first: "So… wifey IF and wifey Compa is a couple?"

Schwarz: "Yes, they are. Are you disappointed?" Maybe…

"Of course not. I'm happy!" What? "With that we can have a threesome for our night." I have no words for this.

"…What's going on?" Oh, hi. I forgot you're still here miss Mascot.

"I'm sorry for the scene. Please forgive us."

"No need to apologize, Young Goddess. I expect the Red girl will say something like that. But about mister…"

"Oh, his name is Kuro."

"Yes, about mister Kuro. I don't know if his…mental has a problem. A few moments ago he was cold as ice, then he turned to be a very respectable hero, but now…"

Weiss and Schwarz chuckle at miss Mascot's statement: "That's our father, madam. He swings mood even faster than light."

"Well, if you said so. Wait, father? He looks no older than you, then…"

Schwarz: "You heard him, right? He said he is not human. Of course he was human in the past, but now, even he doesn't know what to call himself."

Mascot: "Well, that explains something. How about the voice in the air that sounds the same with him?"

Weiss: "That's The Observer. He is my father's other self, and his purpose is like his title."

Sorry if my voice scared you.

Mascot: "It's okay. I'm just surprised, that's all."

I think we don't have anything to do here anymore, so: "Sorry, but I think we should leave now. Sorry for bothering you for too long."

"Don't worry about it. And I hope that you will deliver the good news the next time we meet."

But we are about to leave, miss Mascot says to us: "You should do something about Kuro. I think he is serious about letting you order him around." How can I do anything about it?

Surprised to me, Weiss answers her: "Don't worry, I have a plan." And then she asks Schwarz: "Do you want something from him?"

"Probably not. You guys ordering him around is enough, I don't think he can duel with me anymore. Besides, I know he will regret a bit about his promise."

"Well, if you say so. Come on Nepgear." What? "We have a date to prepare." WHAT?


Present day, Kuro's POV

Record scratches. 'Wait, wait, wait, wait! Hold, hold on! A date? Weiss only told me that she and Nepgear wanted a shopping day with me, that's all! My daughter is having a DATE? Who? How? We've just arrived for a few days, who could have got her attention? Is that Nepgear? How could I be that blind? How… HOW?!'

Calm down. Oh my god. Your daughter is dating Nepgear, so? IF is dating Compa too, why weren't you panicked?

'That's because I also want it to happen. Not THIS. Nepgear is supposed to… No, I will stop this'. I run directly to their change room. 'Wait a second. Where were all of that from?'

Kuro, what are you doing? Don't just…


A few moments later, Kuro's POV

"You two are not dating right?"

"Does it look like one, father? No, we have so much fun with each other yes, but we only are friends, nothing more okay?"

"My goodness, Kuro. You gave us a heart attack back there."

After that…fiasco I just made, we bought the swimsuits they liked, and then went to the café we are sitting now. If you don't know what happened to me, then either you are dumb, or you have never seen an ecchi harem anime before. And I have returned to my usual appearance.

Also, that's not actually my idea. The Creator suddenly took control of my body and did that on his own. I'm not at fault here, all right?

Yep, like he said, that's my fault. But hey, we solved a problem: Weiss and Nepgear are not having a date.

Yeah, solved a problem, in a goddamn painful way! They are weaker than me, but never underestimate a girl's strength when they are embarrassed, or angry, ok? And don't just do that to me again. This chapter and the last one too.

Sorry, okay? Besides, if we switch roles, you would do it to me too.

…Fair point.

"Okay. I'm sorry about what happened. But enough of that. You said about a date during the flashback, then you meant IF and Compa's date?"

"Of course Dad. They have confessed, and I decide to pull Nepgear into my plan in preparing a good date for them. I was intended to tell you later, but, well…"

"I understand. But… why not sooner? I would have made everything much easier! I planned it before, okay?" I pull out my notebook, and give it to them. About 4 pages of pure plans for their date.

"Wait, some of the places are no longer existed in our previous world. How did you… oh, wait, I forgot, never mind."

"Yep, you can check it. Is there anything wrong in that plan?"

"My goodness. How far did you plan this? This one seems to be too detailed."

"As detailed as possible, making sure nothing bad happened."

"Uh, Dad, I see that your plan will work flawlessly, if this one is not occurred." She points to a line in my plan. I look at it, and it wrote: "Hire the bad guys to scare them, in order to make them closer to each other."

"I… did not write that. When did I…" I decide to do a little scan in my memory, and see that there's a little hole in it, when this line is written. And I know exactly why.

… CRE-A-TOR!


Saturday afternoon, 2 p.m, IF's POV

I'm nervous, so nervous! Compa just called me last afternoon, and she asked me out! I'm so happy at that time, but now, I'm so nervous! I have no experience in this kind of situation, I should have asked a Guild member about this! I mean, some of them have a boyfriend/girlfriend and they get along with each other very well.

Right now, I'm standing before a coffee shop that I and Compa are regular guests. Also I have to change my attires so nobody recognizes me during my date, otherwise it would be embarrassing. I'm having a blue cap, also green glasses on my face. I'm wearing a white tank top, with a blue jacket and green outlines on the sleeves outside (it's my size, not oversize), brown shorts, and black shoes. I have left all of my phones back at my place, except Mate Rose Pink, no way I go anywhere without her. The phone is pink, okay? Also you know how obsessed IF is with her phones.

"IF, sorry I'm late. Have you waited me too long?" I look at the direction of the voice and…

I almost fainted when I saw how Compa looks like. I thought I have found Paradise. She has abandoned her sweater, instead she has a pink dress with no sleeves on her, revealing her smooth white skin. To me, she looks like an angel.

I think you have noticed already, that I'm TERRIBLE at describing people's clothes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

"N…no, I just got here. Don't worry about it."

"That's perfect. Let's begin our date, then!" She then grabs my hand, and push herself to me. Oh goddess, I feel both nervous and happy now.

"Yeah… let…us…go." I stumble over my words while Compa drags me to who knows where.


Nearby, disguised Kuro's POV

'This is perfect. PERFECT! Everything is according to plan now. No one will stop this being successful! I won't allow anyone to ruin this moment. Don't worry two of you, I will…'

Don't bend my thought like that, Creator!

Hey, that's part of your thinking. I just voiced it out!

I'm not that aggressive! I maybe am a shipper, but I have my own limits, ok?

Yes, I'm following them. However, to make it more…natural, I turned myself into another person, and will change constantly so they won't suspect me. I will let them have their date, there's no point in interfering, except when they are in danger.

"Uh, I want to jump in right there. Let me do it, Kuro!"

"No way Red. You promised right? You behave, and I will send you a copy, that's our agreement."

"Uhhhhh…No fair. I want to have fun with them too."

Yeah, she overheard our plans. Luckily we made a treat about it, so she won't ruin my plan.

"But I'm surprised. You can pull both of them to one place, you have good skills."

"You haven't seen a corner of me yet, Red. Oh, they are moving now. Let's go. And don't stay too near to me. They will suspect you for sure, but not me."

"Okay. Anything for my wifeys and my future!"


IF's POV

Red? What's she doing here? Is she stalking us? Don't you dare do anything to our date! I'm watching you.

"IF, what's wrong? You got tense all of a sudden? Did you forget anything?"

"Oh, no. It's nothing Compa." Right now, we are stopping before a jewelry shop.

"Well, I won't push you. Oh, it seems the owner has shipped in some new items. We should check it out."

"Wait." And we have entered the shop. The owner, who's a woman, is very kind and shows us a lot of their new stuffs, and even asks us to try some. Compa is enjoying it, and I am too, but they are not really my type.

When we are done with our little trip in here (she even gave us a discount for some reasons), we have bought a new necklace for Compa and a pair of bracelets, each for one of us. "Friendship bracelets!", Ruby Rose. Now we are passing the Planeptune's Central Cinema, when the ticket seller calls us: "IF! Compa! Over here!" When we reach her, she shows us two tickets: "Here you go! The film will start in 10 minutes. You should go in now." I'm confused, and so is Compa. "When…did we book tickets for this? Compa?" "No…not me. I didn't know about this." The seller then asks me: "Didn't you send me a message about that? You also sent me the money for the tickets too, you forgot?" Let me check my memory for a while. Hmm, hmm, hmm… Oh right! I did that, right after Compa told me about out date. "Yes, I did that. Sorry Compa, I was so excited that I forgot." "Don't worry, IF. Besides, we can still spend our time with each other right?" Yeah… She is so sweet! The seller mentions me to go near her, then she whispers to me: "Are you dating? Why didn't you tell me sooner?" I blush a bit: "I don't want everyone to know it yet, okay? It's our first date." She nods in understand. "Okay, well, have fun you two."

Two hours later…

"Why did I pick that film?!" We have finished the film. Compa looks okay, however I am a tomato now. Basically it's a romance film, and about forbidden love too! What did I think when I booked the tickets?

"Uh, IF. You look so red. Are you having a fever?" She is touching her forehead to mine now. Too close!

I quickly but gently push her out of me. "Don't worry…don't worry, Compa. I'm totally fine. I just feel a little hot, that's all."

She then smiles, the angel is smiling at me now: "Okay. How about we buy some ice creams? There is a famous one that's near here." I'm so stupefied right now that I cannot let out an answer. A minute later: "Oh, yeah, Compa. Let's get some."

Moments later…

The sun starts coming down. After we bought ice creams, we went to a clothing shop, where we are regular guests. The shopkeeper and her assistants are our friends, and they sell us a lot of good stuffs. And they gave us a lot of discounts today, too! Before we left the store, they looked happier than usual. And now, we are standing on a hill right at Planeptune's outskirt, watching the day ending.

Compa: "The sun…is so beautiful."

"Yes, it is. But to me, you are more beautiful than it."

"Oh, shush IF. You're making me blush." We are holding hand-in-hand now, under the tree. You can easily imagine this scene.

Then: "You two are IF and Compa, right?" We look at the source of the voice, and see a white cat, with red eyes staring at us. He is having a small box on his back.

"Oh, Kyuhei! What are you doing here?"

"Just doing my job. Here is a package for you." The box then floats in the air and land on our waiting hand.

Kyuhei: "You have to open it now, because I also have a message from everyone. Of course I cannot say their whole things, but I will make a summary for it."

We then unbox it, what we see surprises both of us. The box holds two rings, one green and one pink. We then look at the cat.

Kyuhei: "Everyone wants to say congratulation to both of you. Most people who know you and/or have you as their regular guests know that you two are dating. All of them want you two to have happiness with each other, since they know how close you two are."

How does everyone know about our relationship now? If you are after this Red, you should prepare your will now. But now I feel relieved that I don't have to hide anymore, happy that everyone understands and are happy for us.

Kyuhei then turns away: "My job here is done. I don't want to ruin this moment any longer. Hope your happiness last forever."

"Thank you Kyuhei!" Both of us shout to him as he runs away. Now about the ring…

"Compa, can I have the honor?" I pick up the green ring and wear it on Compa's left ring finger. And then Compa does the same to me with the pink one. Then our lips meet. The kiss is deep and full of passion. After the kiss, we look at each other. Right now, all we have in our eyes is our lover. We wrap our arms to each other and stand like it for quite a time. Then we return back to the city, with our hands holding to each other.

Monday…

"We are leaving to Lastation today. Are you ready?" Kuro says, somehow he seems to be happy, ways too happy.

"Let's go. I cannot wait to find more wifeys in the next nation!" Guess who.

We are back at the meeting room, fully prepared. Histy gives us the location of the Lastation's Mascot, however we need to gain permission from the Oracle and the Goddess, which means the CPU Candidate. If I remember, her name is Uni.

Mature Histoire: "I wish you a safe travel. And I expect your group to give us good reports soon."

"Of course. You won't be disappointed." After that, we start heading to the door, with Kuro on the lead. But then a small notebook falls out of Kuro's coat, I pick it up and about to give it to him; then I notice a name in the first line, my name. "Huh, what is this?" I turn the page, and the next, and the next…

"IF, can you return the…" He asks me, but then pales when he sees my face, red from anger and embarrassment.

"Uh, I forgot something in my room. I need to go back." And then he runs off. Not again!

"Come back here, you A-hole!"


Schwarz's POV

What the heck happened?

"Weiss, what happened at last weekend?"

"? Where have you been during that time?"

"Most of it in shooting range and colosseum. Did I miss something?"

"Look at father's notebook. You will have your answers."

When IF ran off to chase my father, she dropped the book on the ground. I pick it up, then read it with Compa.

"IF and Compa's relationship improving plan 3.

First step: fake their voices and call both of them out for the date.

Second step: look at all possible routes.

Third step: book romance film tickets. Pay all of the shops and tell them to give discount to our lovely couple. (If they got free stuffs they will be suspect)

Fourth step: disguise and follow them. Making sure nothing bad happens.

Fifth step: repeat the plans until it works. If the first one is successful, then stop.

Notes:

Record everything!

Do not get caught!

Manipulate IF's mind to make sure everything goes smooth.

Announce their relationship to their friends.

Prepare to be killed after this."


Chapter 4 done! Yeah, this chapter is stupid and funny in its own way.

Thank you Dark 4 Thunder (coincidence number) for your nice reviews. Hope you enjoy reading this like the others.

See you all in the next chapter!
