Kathryn - *Sob*, D-Don''t tell...

    Sometime later, Kath finally stopped crying, her eyes swollen red, and muttered while still in Issei''s embrace.

    Issei - ...Hmm? Don''t tell what?

    Issei knows what she meant but he couldn''t help wanting to tease her.

    Kathryn - I-I mean... Don''t tell anyone I cried like a child here!

    Issei - Hmmm... Why not?

    Kathryn - U-Uhh... B-Because... Uuuu...

    When she looks like she''s about to cry once more finally Issei chuckled and agreed to her request.

    Issei - Fine, I won''t tell anyone.

    Riche - Rather than worry about that, isn''t there something you have to say first, Kath?

    Kathryn - Hm? Wh-What?

    Kathryn finally remembered that there are people here watching them, she hastily left Issei''s embrace while still being red-faced after hearing Riche''s words.

    Ramius - You haven''t said if you''ll accept Issei''s invitation yet.

    Kathryn - Whaaat?! L-Like... Can''t you guess from how that conversation went?!

    Gurigura - C''mon, Kath-nee. You have to say it loud and clear.

    Kathryn - Ugh... Grrr...

    Criticized even by the younger girl, Kathryn was about to argue, but couldn''t say anything.

    Issei - Wait... What invitation?

    Riche - Your proposal of course?

    Issei - Huh?

    Issei is confused just when did he propose to Kath.

    Lorenzo - Issei-sama, "I''ll defend Kath with my life." Is what you just said.

    Riche - Yup, that sounds like a proposal to me. What about you girls?

    Ramius - Umu, same here.

    Gurigura - Yup!
