Cheer Squad for a Blossoming Love Sweet Ending-Yoshiteru

This is not an official translation. All rights belong to CYBIRD.

(Thank you for providing the translations. @emmaikepri)

Yoshiteru: Help me.

Yoshiteru: ...Yes, someone is crying out.

Mai: Huh? Is someone in trouble? I'll go check right away—

Mai: Ah!?

Just as I stood up to head outside, Yoshiteru-sama, who had been sitting beside me, grabbed my arm and pulled me back firmly.

Yoshiteru: Mai, don't go outside. You should stay here.

Mai: What do you mean, I should stay here...? Please don't decide what I should do without asking me.

I protested and tried to pull away, but Yoshiteru-sama showed no sign of backing down.

Innkeeper: Please don't worry about it, Mai-sama. You are our guests, so please stay here.

Young Master: I'll go see what's going on right away, so please wait here for a moment.

With those words, the two of them left, leaving only Yoshiteru-sama and me behind.

Mai: Is this really okay? It could be some kind of incident.

Yoshiteru: It's fine. It hasn't happened yet.

Mai: ...Not yet?

(It’s strange. He talks as if he already knows what's going to happen.)

(I have a bad feeling about this.)

Mai: Yoshiteru-sama. As long as I stay in this room, that's enough, right?

Mai: I'll do as you say, so please let go of my hand.

Yoshiteru: Mm.

As soon as I was free to move, I immediately opened the window of the room.

(At least this way, I should be able to tell what's happening out on the street.)

When I listened closely, I could hear a woman sobbing and a man trying to comfort her.

(That voice... it's the young master of the inn. Then the woman must be... could she be the one he said he was in love with?)

(Why is she crying?)

Woman: ...I can't possibly stay calm! My father... my father was taken away!

Mai: No way... A kidnapping!?

Yoshiteru: It's not a lie.

Mai: How do you know that?

(He's been with me the whole time, so it's not like he could have witnessed the kidnapping.)

Yoshiteru: It cried out in the distance.

Mai: Cried out?

Yoshiteru: Hisahide's crow. The first two caws mean something happened that wasn't part of the plan. The next short caw means...

Yoshiteru: It means, I can do as I please.

(Hisahide-san? Is he involved in this...?)

(If that's the case, then it makes sense that Yoshiteru-sama seems to know something.)

(But he said it wasn't part of the plan. Does that mean he wasn't involved in the kidnapping?)

Mai: If someone really has been kidnapped, then we have to go save them right away.

Yoshiteru: That's right.

Mai: What do you mean, "That's right"...?

Yoshiteru: I don't think we should go save them, and even if I'm told I can do as I please, I don't really know what to do.

Yoshiteru: So, you can decide, Mai.

Mai: Me...?

Yoshiteru: Yeah. You can do whatever you want with me.

Yoshiteru-sama kept his gaze fixed on me without changing his expression even slightly.

He truly seemed to be leaving every decision entirely up to me.

Mai: Then... I still want to go rescue the person who was kidnapped.

Mai: Even if Yoshiteru-sama doesn't think we should help them...

Yoshiteru: Yeah. I understand.

It seemed there was no lie in his previous words, and Yoshiteru-sama nodded without hesitation.

Mai: Thank you! Then, right away—

Yoshiteru: So, what will you do for me?

Mai: ............Huh?

(Is there a price to pay? Even though Yoshiteru-sama was the one who said I could decide freely...)

However, with his power, the chances of safely resolving the incident happening now would increase greatly.

(What I can do for Yoshiteru-sama, huh...)

(I can't exactly say that I'll go to Kyoto...)

Mai: I can do many things. Like checking your burns, or helping you choose a kimono again.

Yoshiteru: ........

(No good. He isn't responding either. He doesn't seem convinced at all.)

(Oh, seriously... if it has come to this...)

Mai: I-I'll find something that makes you happy, and I'll do that.

Yoshiteru: ...Something that makes me happy.

Yoshiteru-sama repeated my words as if he couldn't imagine it at all.

However, for some reason, he seemed satisfied and nodded slightly.

Yoshiteru: Let's go, Mai.

Mai: ......! Yes, let's hurry!

As I was about to leave the room with a sense of relief, Yoshiteru-sama grabbed my sleeve again.

Yoshiteru: This way is faster.

(This way?)

Pointing toward the window, he let out a sharp whistle.

(...Wait. I have a bad feeling about this.)

Yoshiteru: Stay still.

Mai: Ah!? W-Wait, don't tell me...

The sudden sensation of floating made all the blood drain from my face.

The moment Yoshiteru-sama hoisted me over his shoulder, I heard the sound of approaching hoofbeats from outside the window.

Mai: We're on the second floor! And jumping onto a horse while carrying someone... that's not something a normal person can do!

Yoshiteru: I can.

There was no way my protests would reach him. Yoshiteru-sama planted a foot on the windowsill and leaned out.

Then, with me in his arms, he leaped down.

Merchant's Daughter: Thank you so, so much! I don't even know how to express my gratitude...

Yoshiteru: Then you don't have to say anything.

Merchant's Daughter: Oh, no. Please let me thank you properly!

Merchant's Daughter: I'll never forget the way you rushed in to save him. And to leap out of a window and mount a horse... it was incredible!

(...I don't think I'll ever forget it either.)

(To be honest, I feel a little bad for receiving so much gratitude too.)

Surrounded by the townspeople together with Yoshiteru-sama and showered with praise, I held back a sigh.

After that, in the end, there was absolutely no opportunity for me to do anything.

(The only thing I did was desperately cling to Yoshiteru-sama while riding a horse running at an incredible speed, and...)

(While being forced to watch a merciless battle from up close, I trembled in fear...)

By the time I realized it, everything had already been resolved thanks to Yoshiteru-sama.

(But... everyone was safe, so I suppose it's fine.)

Merchant: You are our lifesavers. No matter how many words of gratitude I offer, they could never be enough.

Merchant: Please, allow me to show my gratitude.

Yoshiteru: Ah, in that case...

Yoshiteru: Since Mai said she would give me something, you don't have to worry about it.

Merchant: ......Pardon?

Yoshiteru: We're talking about the reward, right? Since Mai said she would give me one, I don't need anything from anyone else.

Mai: Y-Yoshiteru… no, I mean, um…

(I can't call him by his name in a crowd like this.)

Merchant's Daughter: W-Well... so the two of you have that kind of relationship, then.

The woman who had been listening nearby covered her mouth with her hand, her cheeks turning red.

The gazes of the people around us, who seemed to have understood the situation from the atmosphere, somehow became even warmer.

Mai: Um, that's not it! This person and I aren't in that kind of relationship.

Yoshiteru: You promised. You said you would give it to me.

Mai: I did promise that. What I'm denying right now is our relationship being like that...

(Um... how should I explain this?)

Yoshiteru: ...Ah. It cried out.

Mai: Cried out?

Yoshiteru: Yes, the crow. This means "success."

(! That's right, Hisahide-san was involved in this too.)

I didn't know how much of this was his plan or what kind of disturbance he intended to cause, but...

If this situation is considered a success, then I can somewhat figure out what happened.

(If his plan was to make people misunderstand the relationship between Yoshiteru-sama and me... then it wasn't just a success, it was a huge success.)

Yoshiteru: Mai, what are you going to do for me? The thing that will make me happy.

Mai: P-Please be careful with how you phrase that!

Yoshiteru: ? I didn't say anything wrong. That's what you said.

Mai: I did say that, but... ah, no, that's not what I mean...!

Yoshiteru-sama continued to stare intently at me, completely unconcerned with the reactions of those around us.

It might have been because of the lights, but the depths of his eyes seemed to shine just a little.

Bond Story: The Formation of the Ashikaga Army ~The Heretics' Utopia~To Bring a Divine Glory to the Capital 2

This is not an official translation. All rights belong to CYBIRD.

(Thank you for providing the translations. @emmaikepri)

Saizo's shoulders gave a slight jolt, but Kanbei paid him no mind and ruffled his hair.

Kanbei: My role is to secretly gather soldiers for the Ashikaga Army's forces and have them lie in wait throughout the provinces surrounding the capital.

Kanbei: And as a strategist, it's my job to move the pieces.

Kanbei: Now then, can you tell me how I should make use of Saizo?

Saizo: Heh.

Kanbei: What are you capable of? And why were you recruited?

Kanbei: The fact that you're a shinobi from Kirigakure Village alone proves you possess considerable skill.

Kanbei: And on top of that, the fact that you managed to leave your village and now stand here as a free man means...

Saizo: ...! U-ugh... th-th-th-that's...

Kanbei: Does that mean you're exceptionally talented at hiding?

Kanbei: Why don't you spar with me as a test? It might help us get to know each other better.

Saizo: H-Hide-and-seek...!?

Kanbei: Now, what should the punishment be if you're caught?

Saizo: Eek...! Even though it's just a friendly game to help us get to know each other, there's a punishment!?

Saizo shrank back like a cornered puppy.

Looking somewhat satisfied, Kanbei finally released Saizo's hair, which had become a complete bird's nest.

Saizo: I-I don't know why someone like me was recruited.

Kanbei: And you're here without even knowing why?

Saizo: I just... thought that if a land of peace could be built, maybe I wouldn't have to fight anymore.

Saizo: Or perhaps... somewhere along the way to building it...

Saizo trailed off and looked up at Kanbei.

Saizo: ...Kanbei, um... why...

Kanbei: Because they survived those four years, and their ambition had not been crushed.

Kanbei: For now, that's all. The real value will be found from here on.

Kanbei: ...Even so, "equals," huh? That's an interesting way to put it.

Kanbei: Even if it was nothing more than a whim from a few years ago, a promise is still a promise.

Saizo: ...A promise...

Kanbei: Hmm? Would you like me to make a promise with you too, Saizo?

Saizo: Huh!? N-no... someone like me doesn't deserve something like that...

Saizo: I'm not someone who deserves something like that. ...You don't have to treat me like a person.

Yoshiteru: It's been a while, you two.

Freed from the officials, Rikyu and Kanbei were greeted by Yoshiteru, who emerged from the darkness of the night.

Rikyu frowned at Yoshiteru's dazzling white attire, which seemed to glow in the darkness.

Rikyu: ...You really went and gave us away, didn't you?

Kanbei: Reporting Rikyu and me and having us arrested for treason against the shogun... that was quite a rough way of doing things.

Yoshiteru: This was the quickest way for us to regroup. Besides... it makes it easier to lure them out.

Kanbei: Heh, that's quite a luxurious decoy.

Saizo: A-are you two really arguing at a time like this...?

Hisahide: Don't worry, Saizo. I'm sure they both understand why they were used as decoys.

Hisahide: ...On the day Honnoji was consumed by towering flames, the former shogun, Ashikaga Yoshiteru, was reborn.

Hisahide: A miracle like that is far too tame.

Kanbei: A miracle is only a miracle when many people witness it.

Yoshiteru: That miracle will be brought to all the people who seek eternal peace.

Yoshiteru: Our destination is... the capital city of Kyoto.

Saizo: —Then I'll cover the rear. The guards from earlier are approaching.

Yoshiteru: They won't come.

Saizo: I-I’m not someone suited for the spotlight... I’ll stay here.

Trusting Saizo, who had rushed ahead alone, the group marched on toward the capital.

Villager 1: Hey, what on earth is happening!?

Villager 2: I-I have no idea! Are they fighting among themselves...!?

The sudden fierce battle that erupted within the capital shattered even the stillness of the night.

The people could not hide their confusion at the bizarre sight of the Ashikaga Army led by Kanbei clashing with the Ashikaga Army that had sided with the samurai man.

The commotion spread like ripples, eventually rousing even the man who had been hiding away in his lair.

Man: Hey, what on earth is all this commotion about!?Man: I am the one who governs this capital under the orders of the shogun, Ashikaga Yoshiteru-sama. If you oppose me, I will show no mercy!

Hisahide: —Governs.

Hisahide stepped forward alone from among the crowd.

Hisahide: Wasn't the order Yoshiteru-sama gave you to "bring peace to the people"?

Hisahide: I don't believe that has been accomplished in the slightest. Wouldn't that itself be considered rebellion?

Man: Hah. Then bring the real one here.

Villager 3: Eek...!

The man dragged out a nearby villager and held a sword to their neck.

Man: Come on, hurry up. Otherwise, that precious citizen's so-called peace will be taken away, won't it?

Man: Though, I doubt a miracle would happen for such a worthless little life.

Hisahide: ...Are you saying Yoshiteru-sama's resurrection is nothing but a fabrication?

Man: Of course. You are nothing but a ridiculous bunch of fools who were fooled by that story.

The man scoffed and looked around at the people.

However— they were all looking up at the sky.

Villager 1: ...Hey, look at that...

Welcome back to the askbox @starcub17 how’s it going? Thank you for your request, it’s super duper cute! ^^

~~~~~~~~~~

Le Comte de Saint Germain:

Comte’s reflexes and reaction times are second to none as a pureblood so, there is no chance that you’re escaping. The moment that your lips are on his, Comte’s hands are grasping your waist and kissing you back slowly and passionately.

And he will take his time with you: He doesn’t care if you have chores to attend to or if you were on your way to do something, Comte is going to kiss you so lovingly and thoroughly that you’ll forget what you were even meant to be doing in the first place.

Le Comte will openly admit to you that he wishes your surprise kisses would become a habit, mentioning it fondly while the two of you catch your breath just centimetres away from each other’s faces. There’s this coy smirk on his lips when you blush about it and his fingers gently comb through your hair and it’s more than likely that he’ll keep you by his side for an hour or so before he lets you get back to work.

Napoleon Bonaparte:

Napoleon rubs his eyes, wondering if he’d dreamt about you kissing him awake, smiling sleepily as he can feel your lingering warm kiss on his lips. If he falls back asleep, he’ll dream about you kissing him again, secretly hoping that you come back to kiss him awake again.

There’ll be this proud, smug little smirk on his face if you just pop up and surprise him with kisses during the day. He wouldn’t feel shy to admit that your affection fills him with confidence and makes his heart flutter: He is so smitten with you.

Its when you are parting ways in Paris after bumping into each other - With you out running errands and him on the way to teach - when you give him a slightly more passionate that was appropriate to share in public that Napoleon makes his move. He’ll take your hand, his jade green eyes blazing with emotion, and pull you into a parked carriage, pinning you down against the velvet seats and kissing you so deeply it has you both panting for breath when you part.

Arthur Conan Doyle:

He’s a little stunned but breaks out into a huge grin as he watches you running away giggling cutely - He didn’t realise how much he’d needed that sweet little kiss while he’d had his nose buried in his work all day.

I promise you, he will 100% get you back for it, though. Arthur will sneak up behind you while you’re working in the kitchen and kiss you breathless just to go on his merry way back to his writing desk.

Arthur will let you have your fun; he’ll happily let you give him all these little surprise affections for a few days until one day he pounces on you in the library. He’ll catch your wrist as you try to toddle away and pull you onto his lap on the sofa or the two of you will end up on the floor, muttering about how you’ve been driving him wild between pressing kisses down your neck.

IkéPri Card Appreciation Part 3

Chevalier and a book belong to each other like the sun in the sky, so... why aren't there more cards with him holding a book...?

Also, can we just appreciate the cute little bracelet with what I assume is his crest (either that or it's a blue rose)!

I have to be honest though: His facial expression looks very out of character to me..

The "red string of fate" cards... I couldn't not add at least ohne of them. Nokto's nails have a nice effect here as they often do.

Okay, so, I like the picture a lot but what's with that bracelet?? It looks like something died on his wrist.. His eyes really come out here though, so I'll ignore the fuzzy thing.

This picture just makes me laugh every time I see it. His face looks so funny! This card isn't here because it's one I think should be appreciated – I just wanted to show this to you guys in case you hadn't seen the card yet.

Also... the blood on the knife was unnecessary Cybird.

Aaaand I'll end this post with my background picture No. 1 on IkéPri.

I mentioned before that I love all things Christmas but I also love snow and the atmosphere and this card is my favourite because of the background and the winter vibes. <3

Bond Story: The Formation of the Ashikaga Army ~The Heretics' Utopia~Kanbei

(Thank you for providing the translations. @emmaikepri)

Kanbei: Oh, Mai.

Mai: Kanbei-san...... good morning.

(She looks even sleepier than usual this morning.)

Kanbei: You seem to have worked quite late, didn't you?

Mai: Ah……………… no, not really.

Mai gave an awkward smile and hurriedly walked away.

(Other than her eyelids looking a little heavy, she seems the same as usual......)

Kanbei: Here, lie down. It should be more comfortable than standing.

Mai: Thank you...... I just felt a little dizzy, that's all.

Kanbei: I asked the maids to prepare some rice porridge earlier. Eat that, and get plenty of rest today.

He gently laid Mai, whom he had been carrying in his arms, down onto the bedding.

(It ended up like this after all. I wonder if the exhaustion finally caught up with her?)

Kanbei gently stroked her forehead and cheek with a tender touch.

Her soft cheeks were dyed red by the setting sun, but they did not feel particularly warm.

Kanbei: Is there anything else you'd like me to do for you?

Mai: ......No, not particularly......

Kanbei: I'll do anything for you. Go ahead and make a selfish request with that cute mouth of yours.

Mai: Fufu. You've already done what I wanted you to do. I'm satisfied.

Mai: More importantly, I think you're busy too, Kanbei-san, so please go back to your work.

Mai: Besides...... I've already caused everyone a lot of trouble, so I can't impose on you any further......

Kanbei: .......

(That couldn't be further from the truth, though.)

Mai immediately fills his heart with her delicate thoughtfulness.

(It's endearing, and I think she's adorable...... but I wish her heart would be filled with nothing but me.)

Kanbei: Mai. Do you want to sleep peacefully?

Mai: ......? Yes.

At his quiet question, Mai nodded.

Kanbei: Good. I understand.

Kanbei placed a kiss on her eyelids and watched as she closed them, looking relieved.

(So that is what Mai wishes for.)

(Then I will grant it for her with my own hands.)

(To let you, my precious one...... sleep peacefully and serenely.)

Man: Um, well, uh...... Why is Kanbei-sama personally......?

Kanbei: Because I have business with you.

Kanbei had visited the merchant who was currently making a haori for Mai.

Recently, Mai had been holding the same piece of fabric night after night.

Kanbei: That's because you kept adding unreasonable requests after the fact, isn't it?

Kanbei: Humans find it difficult to clearly understand what they want, as well as to convey it to others.

Kanbei: But that doesn't give you the right to take away her precious time.

Man: Th...... that's......

(Oh, how pitiful. He's gone completely pale.)

Kanbei: Humans are foolish and imperfect creatures. That's what makes them adorable.

Kanbei: But right now, I can't turn a blind eye to your foolishness.

Kanbei: So I'll show you the true desire that lies dormant within your heart.

Man: Your desire, you mean?

Kanbei: Do you want to continue living peacefully within these walls?

Man: ............!

(The rest should be obvious without me having to say it.)

Kanbei: I will guide you myself now that you have finally become aware of your own true desire.

Kanbei calmly smiled at the trembling man.

(Well then—by dawn, everything should be taken care of.)

(All of the things that have been troubling Mai.)

————The next morning.

Kanbei: It seems you slept well.

Mai: Yes. ......Since I ended up sleeping, I need to get back to work right away.

Kanbei: Mai.

Just as she hurriedly tried to get up, Kanbei gently pushed her back down.

Mai: ............! W-what's wrong?

Kanbei: There's nothing left to worry about, so you can relax. Get some more rest.

Mai: Nothing left to worry about......? Mmh......

He silenced the lips that were about to ask what he had done with a kiss.

Mai: Mm, ah......

(......That sweet voice. Good girl.)

While stroking her head and deepening the warmth in a way that spoiled her, Mai's body gradually relaxed.

Kanbei, pleased by her reaction, slowly pulled his lips away.

Kanbei: There is no need to ask.

Kanbei: I respected your sense of morality. That should be enough, shouldn't it?

(That's why......)

(Once in a while, you should surrender yourself to my affection and become a being that simply feels happiness.)

Kanbei gazed into Mai's eyes, which had melted with desire, and once again cast a shadow over her.

It did not take long for the peaceful morning to become wrapped in a heavy, sweet atmosphere.
