Ever since escaping the research facility steeped in bloodshed and sin from his memories, Hiiragi Miya Hanyu's life has been turned upside down.
He focused on his studies with one hand and worked part-time with the other, successfully raising the fourteen-year-old version of himself, who couldn't beat the evil Pineapple Head, into a twenty-five-year-old young man who excelled in every aspect of moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education.
He also built a financial unicorn in the land of the free, America, with the second-highest valuation, achieving financial freedom and finding a partner he hoped to spend the rest of his life with.
But when Hiiragi Miya Hanyu confidently got down on one knee in front of his boyfriend with an engagement ring, he noticed something strange in the way his boyfriend was looking at him.
"Hey, Hanyu-kun," his boyfriend asked sweetly, hugging a ball of cotton candy.
"I believe Hanyu-kun isn't the kind of scumbag who plays with people's feelings, so you definitely won't suddenly do something dangerous one day after you have me, right?"
"You won't cut your wrists, jump off a building, or disappear. You won't... you won't... you won't..."
His boyfriend listed things he "wouldn't" do for ten whole minutes, making Hiiragi Miya Hanyu break out in a cold sweat. He was nearly on both knees.
Only later did he learn that his boyfriend had awakened the ability to observe parallel worlds overnight, and all those things he said Hanyu wouldn't do...
were ways Hanyu died in parallel worlds.
·
Byakuran had a splitting headache.
Ever since he awakened the ability to observe parallel worlds, it was like a messaging app that had been offline for ages finally connected to the internet. Notifications kept pouring in, ding after ding.
Not only had he won a file full of knowledge, he had also learned that his fiance would inexplicably choose to die one day after they married, and that hordes of Byakurans from beyond this world were waiting to take his place as the third party, fourth party, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth parties.
Because Hiiragi Miya Hanyu had died in every other parallel world, and his fiance had become the only living Hiiragi Miya Hanyu.
Byakuran: ...?
Byakuran, unable to smile: ...
Byakuran, looking at him tenderly: "Since you love dying so much, how about I die with you? What do you think about dying from too much sex, Hanyu-kun..."
Hanyu, both startled and delighted: "!"
But, well... could that really happen?
