Haru looked at the braid-haired girl, who seemed very earnest and disciplined, and even though both of them didn't know each other, he knew this girl very well since she was the one who found out about his relationship with Sora in the story.
If Haru really followed the story, then he would get stuck in this city, and go to the same school as this girl, then without a doubt, this girl had a feeling toward him, but it was also because of that, that she was the one who had found out his relationship with Sora.
Luckily, Haru and Sora weren't real blood-related siblings in this world, or else, it would be terrible when he thought about it calmly.
On the other hand, the girl blushed and felt that she had fallen in love at first sight. She then moved closer to observe him better, but as expected...
"Cough! Cough! Sorry, but can you not stare at my boyfriend?" Maki asked with a frown.
"Ah!" The girl quickly realized Maki, who was sitting behind Haru, and somehow she looked at her with an envious gaze after hearing that Haru was her boyfriend. She thought she had found the right one, but she didn't expect her love life to end so soon.
"Haru, let's go." Maki tucked Haru's sleeve.
"I'm glad that you're alright, but I'm sorry that we can't talk too much," Haru said politely.
"No, no, it's alright. I also know that it was my fault too," the girl quickly said, and there was still a blush on her face.
"Well, if by any chance we meet again, let's talk with each other... um..." Haru wasn't sure the name of this girl.
"Kozue Kuronaga! Kozue, you can call me that!" Kozue said without hesitation.
"I see, Kozue-san." Haru nodded and said, "My name is Kasugano Haruka, and this is my girlfriend, Nishikino Maki. It's nice to meet you."
"Yes, it's nice to meet you too, Kasugano-kun..." Kozue couldn't look away from Haru at this moment.
Then after they talked for a while, they parted, but Kozue was still looking at their backs and let out a sigh, wondering why all the best men had been taken by someone.
"But why have I seen him somewhere?" Kozue thought at that moment.

Haru and Maki continued their trip. She hugged her waist from behind, sitting on the passenger seat on the bicycle, looking at his back, and sighed. "You really don't have an idea about the girls in this place."
"No," Haru said without hesitation.
"Are you sure?" Maki asked in doubt.
"For me, this place is the past, and now, I live in the present, and that present is you, Maki, and without doubt, you're also my future," Haru said.
Maki smiled and hugged him tighter. "You sure know how to say something that makes me feel good."
"If I can't, then I won't be able to date a lot of girls at the same time," Haru said simply.
"..." Maki was lost for words, then nodded. "That's true." If this guy wasn't skilled with his words, even if he was handsome, then without a doubt, it would be impossible for him to create a harem who fully loved him wholeheartedly. "Still, you're too handsome, isn't there a way for you to disguise yourselves?" After all, she had to admit that her man was very handsome, so handsome that he would attract everyone's attention when he walked, especially girls.
"Well, I have a secret weapon with me." Haru stopped the bicycle and took out the glasses that he had worn previously on his quest. He then wore it and asked, "Maki, how is it?"
"......" Maki opened her mouth wide, and she was dumbfounded. She then took off his glasses and saw his face returned to his handsome face, but when she put his glasses on his face, his face became so ordinary, which made her dumbfounded. "This... what is this?"
"You can think of it as a magic item," Haru said simply.
"......" Maki.
"Wear this," Maki said without hesitation. After all, she was sure that if Haru wore those glasses, they wouldn't be troubled by many girls during their trip.
Haru also didn't really mind since he really didn't intend to hook up with a girl in this place. He wore the glasses, then continued with their trip.
Maki then thought for a while and asked, "Say, Haru, why don't you wear these glasses when we arrive in this city? If so, then you wouldn't be entangled with various women, right?"
"...." Haru could only shake his head and said, "Well, I want to say hello to my acquaintances. After all, Senka-nee has taken care of me, and if I wear these glasses, she might not notice me."
"I see..." Maki nodded and also understood that by wearing those glasses, it was simply impossible to notice that it was him. She also didn't think too much and asked, "So where are we going after this?"
"Let's go near the river. There's a beautiful one here," Haru said.
"Good." Maki nodded with a smile.

Haru and Maki were playing on the river like a child, and it was like they had returned to their childhood time, spending their time together to have fun together.
After they got tired, they simply rested on the nearby rock, sat next to each other, watching the quiet river, the fishes, and the scenery around them.
Maki hugged Haru's arm and wanted this to continue forever. She looked at him and called out his name. "Haru."
"Hmm?"
"I love you. Let's stay together until death part us, alright?" Maki asked with a smile.
Haru looked at Maki, then smiled and nodded. "Yes, I love you too, Maki. Let's stay together until death parts us."
Maki directly hugged him and kissed his lips, feeling the happiness that she couldn't control. Unfortunately, this place was a jungle. If this place was their room, then...
Maki stopped thinking and only wanted to be with him like this enjoying every moment together.

After playing on the river like a kid, they went to visit the shrine. After all, there would be a festival tomorrow, so they wanted to see it, and then along the way, they saw both Kazuma and Ayumu that they had met before.
"Kazuma-kun! Ayumu-kun!"
Kazuma and Ayumu, who were helping with the preparation of the festival, stopped when they heard their name was called, but then they looked at Haru, who was wearing glasses in doubt since they didn't know this guy was.
"It's me, Haru." Haru then took off his glasses, showing his real appearance.
"Ka - Kasugano-kun?!"
"Ka - Kasugano-san?!"
Kazuma and Ayumu were dumbfounded when they saw the ordinary guy with glasses before suddenly transforming into Haru.
"Sorry for bothering you. Are you busy?" Haru asked.
"No, no, it's alright. I'm not that busy." Kazuma shook his head and said, "That's right, Kasugano-kun. Do you want me to introduce you to everyone?"
"Huh?" Haru was surprised, but then he shook his head and said, "You don't need to. We're only coming to watch the excitement. We won't bother you."
"It's alright, we'll also tell you about the festival too," Kazuma said kindly.
"Well, if you insist, then we'll trouble you." Haru nodded and asked, "Maki, what do you think?"
"It's alright." Maki nodded and didn't think too much, but still, she wasn't good with strangers, so she didn't say much from the beginning to the end.
"Well, let's go. I'm not sure why but it seems that Daigo is afraid of you," Kazuma said.
"Daigo?" Haru raised his eyebrow and wondered why this name was quite familiar.
Then they decided to go to the shrine, but suddenly someone called out Haru.
"Ha - Haru-chan?"
The four of them turned, and they saw a beautiful girl with short hair, glasses, and large breasts.
Haru was also surprised and asked, "Nao?" Their meeting was so sudden that he wasn't sure what to say for a while, but he had to admit that this girl had grown up into a beautiful girl.
