Chapter 5

There was silence as Raiden and Violet walked side by side towards the dungeon entrance.

"By the way, Raiden," she said.

"What is it, Violet?" he asked.

"Do you remember your previous life?" Violet inquired.

"Yeah, some, I remember," he replied.

"Then, what are you going to do with your life?" she inquired.

"No matter where you go, Violet, I'll always be there for you, whether in your previous or current life."

As you can see, the only identities revealed are those two when they discovered they're best friends from a previous life when Violet discovered him speaking Japanese and began living her life with him.

She remembered something as they walked. "Do you remember...the promise we made all those years ago in our previous life?" Violet's voice trembled as she inquired.

"What promise?" Raiden inquired.

She pouts, "Never mind," and rushes away

"Hey, wait up."

As she walks, she recalls how they were neighbors from the day they were born. They spent every waking moment together, attending cram school, eating together, and even sleeping on the futon. They also take a bath together. Their relationship was well known to their parents. Raiden stood guard over her and shooed the dog away before assisting a crying Violet and holding her hand, saying, "Do not cry Shizuka, I will always protect you."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just a reminder, the names of violet was Oozuru Shizuka in her previous life and Raiden was Shota Takanashi

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You will"

She wipes her tears, "you will"

"I swear"

"Then do you promise you'll marry me"

"I pinky promise"

As they saw a romantic movie and a marriage, Raiden put the curtain on Violet and proposed to her, "I, Shota Takanashi, take thee Oozuru Shizuka to be my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do us part, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my fait."She falls in tears as he says

"Let us promise together, when we reach the age of eighteen, I'll propose to you again, and we'll marry again," he promised "Shota" as they kissed each other That was their relationship, but ever since his maids clung to them, he forgot the promise he made from his previous life.

She lets out a sigh.

As he thinks about her, he recognizes the vow and blushes, "Were you talking about our promise?" he asks.

She comes to a halt, blushes, and nods

"Man, you're so silly, we were kids," he laughs, but as soon as he sees her, she begins to cry

"Did you think that was a joke?" she sobs.

"No, not at all," Raiden says as he grabs and holds her. "Listen, whether it was a joke or not, I vowed we'd marry one day, and my maids are nothing more than a hindrance."

"Will you do it then?" she asks.

"But, once we've settled things," Raiden smiled, "I promised you a lot of things in the past, and I want to make good on those promises."

"R-Really?" "Don't get me wrong: I'm not pressuring you to do anything." Violet said this while looking relieved and defensive at the same time. And, well, it's just a promise from our youth, so we might leave it at that even if you don't remember it."

"Hmm. Is that correct?"

"I also had a problem when those maids–all of them cute–came to live with him and you did obscene things with them all the time on top of that, and I brought up that old promise, I felt jealous?"

"Don't worry, Violet. "I promise you," he says as she hugs him and wipes her tears.

"Don't worry, I'm someone who keeps his promises." Even if it is a relic from another time."

"Correct. That is to say, you are always frivolous, but you also have some surprisingly manly qualities... I mean, I'm not completely enamored with our old vow! That's the only thing there is to it! I only recently remembered it and brought it up!" Violet provided hurried explanations.

Raiden, on the other hand, responded confidently. "In terms of our pledge, do you believe we should begin as a couple if we keep it?"

"What !" she gasped

"Come on, let's start dating and doing things" before learning more about each other.

"What doing S**X?" Violet blushed and asked

"What no, why bring that up?" he was embarrassed.

"And then?" she inquired.

"You know like dates and stuff?" he asked.

"OH!" She was laughing.

"Then shall we," he says, holding out his hand, "Violet, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes," she smiles and they both hug

After finishing they smile each other that they forgot that they were on their way to the dungeon

"Shit we forgot" he takes her hand and runs as she smiles

"Hey, Violet," He says as they begin wondering and attacking the beasts

"W-What?" she supports him in healing

"should we notify the family?" he inquired.

She wonders, "Why do you ask?" "I have a feeling they'll keep following us because they said we may date."

"Whose. Fault. Do. You. Believe. Is!?" Violet began hitting him while blushing

"Ahaha, stop it, that hurts," Raiden said, but he took it in stride.

"Leaving aside the jokes," Raiden said as he escaped Violet's horrible neck binding, "by the promise, when do we plan to marry?"

"Huh!" Violet acted confidently, but when it came to assaulting, she was quite vulnerable. Upon his direct question, all of her earlier vigour vanished to who knows where.

"T-thats, that's correct."

"I promised you when we turned big, but since we reborn again and got another plan, we should plan."

She snorted and rushed out frontas she pretended to brush her hair that she forgot the mission and a shadow Ape came towards her but luckily he sliced them

"Hey watch out " he yelled

" Yes, I'm sorry" she apologized

As they walk , both of them were fidgeting

" So have you decided ?" He questions her

" I don't know" she replies

He pushes her to the wall and looks through her eyes and lips and gives a forehead kiss

"I'm being serious, okay?"

"Hm? About what?"

" we getting married"

" We can marry after twenty, there's no rush" she says in low voice

" Is that so" he said

She gets butterflies flowing as she is cornered by him

"Hey, Violet."

"What."

"I know I said it before, but I keep my promises."

"Yes, that's correct. In the most unexpected ways, you are manly."

"Okay, let's get married as soon as possible."

"...Hah?" "...wait, you can't just assume we marry quickly. We are still young, and we have a long year ahead of us; don't make hasty assumptions!" Violet stated

"But we can because you're sixteen and I'm sixteen, which means we're almost legal to marry," Raiden explained.

Violet remained there looking becoming flushed, yet out of nowhere her appearance changed into a weak grin. "Unthinkable. That is simply not practical. No… "

"What do you mean by outlandish." He addressed

"That is to say, you simply stated that you wanted to marry. Isn't that fundamentally a proposition? However, after giving it some thought, I believe I misheard it. Is that correct? Is it possible that I'm still half-sleeping?"

"However, I believe it's very simple?" I'm trying to say "get married."

"Wait! That is not something you 'just' say, is it? Do you ever understand what that means? We're talking about a wedding here, you know? It's something where you present the marriage enlistment, enter your name in the family register, change your last name, hold the function, and" I'm not a complete moron." He swats at her.

"Ow"

"Is that something you say in a location like this?" he asked."Even if it's not legal, we can still do it with our emotions, right?" We could just keep it as an engagement for the time being and married when we are legally able to. It would be enough to simply confirm each other's feelings right now. So, Violet, is it a yes or a no?, are we getting married next year or what?" he asked her

"...Wait, wait, wait!" Her face flushed with each passing second, and she shook her head incessantly as she maintained her rapid pace. "Hold on a second. Please don't pull me along at your own pace. If you bring something like this up so quickly, it really bothers me."

"Sorry. But well, I thought this was the best timing for it. We just started dating and it's too fast"

"Mm true" he thinks and suddenly gets an idea, "hey pass me your hair pins"

"My What ?" she asked

"Just pass" he asked to give

She gives him and he does something with it , "Show me your hands"

"My what!" she inquired

"Just pass me" he said taking her hand, " Close your eyes"

"Why"

"Just close"

When she closes, after few seconds she opens and sees the pin is turned into a ring

"This marks that we are now engaged, at our first date, let's choose a ring at the budget store and then when we are at our marriage age, I'll buy you a good ring" he proposes her

She tears and he hugs her

"So? Is it a yes or a no?"

"Raiden, uhh, how do I put this... D-Are you really...ok with this?" She interrogates him.

"Do you think we've been together for a long time?" "Of course I do," Raiden continued, a rare frustrated expression on his face. Violet, I like you."

Violet became speechless and let forth an odd voice.

"Of course, I mean I like you as a lady, okay?" That's not like I said it only to make you happy," he replies, scratching his head, "Uh...Ah... Yes." Thank you very much. Okay."

"Do dislike me, Violet? You know, I'm not an imbecile here, so I figure you do like me as a man."

She was overpowered. Anyway Raiden wasn't really being pushy; he was being his standard lighthearted self even presently and was tranquilly conversing with her, very much like how he normally would.

"H-Hey," Violet continued attaching her speed and proceeded, "You know, this is the first occasion when I caught wind of that." "You mean with regards to me enjoying you?"

"Y-Yeah." He laughs

"That is to say, you'd normally notice that. We've been together for sixteen entire years as of now, and we live with to one another and go adventures together, and you come raging with a shout in my shower if something occurs. That is the sort of relationship we have. In the event that I didn't care for you, it wouldn't proceed with that way." She says

"Eh, ah, yes. Somewhat grieved regarding that." He is sorry

"That is to say, look. A great deal has happened of late, correct? Those Three demons and I went to your home and my life changed incredibly."

"...Well, you have a point there. Its groundbreaking… "

"I love you, Violet, and you love me. It was a conspicuous thing to me, yet except if I said it so anyone can hear, you wouldn't understand it. So I needed make it understood."

"I wasn't pretty much as certain as you, you know… It resembles, you at times look so...I don't know...really develop and gathered."

"All right, then, let's get started." He shouted this while clapping his cheeks. "Would you mind dating me as a lover before we get married?"

"Yes. "Thank you!" she exclaimed.

He gives her a hug and they kiss.

As they entered the dungeon, both of them fight the beasts

While Violet heals him, she asks, "Actually, Raiden," as they walk to the dungeon and kills the demon rabbits

"Violet, what is it?" he says fighting the beasts

"I wish you would quit doing lewd things with the maids if you like me as much as you say."

"Well..... let's just put that aside," he says.

"It appears that we need to have a serious talk..." he chuckles with her and soon they were promoted and renewed their license.
