When dusk approached, Miyo and Kiyoka left the house as scheduled.

After coming home from the Forbidden Land and taking a short break, Miyo got to work on a dish that would let her flex her cooking skills together with Yurie.

In the end, she was able to stuff a four-tiered box set with food.

Although the gathering was only for close relatives, there would still be a fair number of people there, so she was certain that even this wouldn’t be enough. Still, the Usubas would be preparing plenty of food themselves, so she didn’t need to worry too much about it. Miyo’s cooking was nothing but a gift to the hosts, a little extra.

Carrying the cloth-wrapped tiered boxes, Miyo sat down in the back seat of the automobile next to Yurie.

“Isn’t this exciting, Miss Miyo? Why, I wonder how long it has been since I last attended a flower viewing.”

“It is. This is my first time attending a flower-viewing party, too, so I really am looking forward to it.”

Yurie had also been invited along to the banquet. She and Miyo were eagerly anticipating the event.

Kiyoka drove the automobile down the roads of the imperial capital before parking in the open area on the Tsuruki Trading property. He had previously gotten permission from Arata to use it as a place to park his car.

The three of them passed beyond the Tsuruki Trading building and entered the Usuba estate.

“Welcome, we’ve been waiting for you.”

Arata was there to greet them with a respectful bow. His friendly smile and elegant mannerisms were just the same as when Miyo had first met him—and when she had been with him at the Burial Grounds.

During the Usui affair, Arata had been placed in a complicated position, and he ended up both suffering heavy wounds and shouldering the crime of taking Usui’s life.

Usui was a criminal abusing his Gift for nefarious purposes, and the Usubas’ role was to pass judgment on such Gift-users.

In other words, Arata had stopped Usui, and as ending the man’s life was within the purview of his duties, he wasn’t actually charged with anything.

Still, it was clear that he had been wounded physically and mentally in the process.

Miyo was still concerned for Arata, and she had regularly visited him when he was in the hospital. By now, it had become a habit of hers to try and gauge how he was doing every time they met.

But Arata…is fine, isn’t he?

He was someone with a firm handle on himself. If anything, he now looked as though a weight had been lifted from him, more so than before he’d gotten involved with Usui.

The same was probably true of Miyo.

She couldn’t say that witnessing Usui’s death hadn’t cast a shadow over her heart.

More than that darkness, however, she felt optimistic. All the problems facing the Usuba family had either been resolved or had a visible path to resolving them.

“Um, Arata. Here.”

Miyo handed him the tiered boxes, and her cousin’s smile broadened even further as he accepted them gently.

“Thank you.
