"A gift for me? What occasion?"(Shira)
I take out a red crystal compass in my [Storage].
=>[Compass of Soul Finder]
- It will locate the soul of the person you met already. Even if they reincarnate, loss their memories, or in another world.
"Well.... This is not technically my gift."(Shin)
Realizing my nuance, she sobbed while thanking me.
=================
"I guess we disturbed your date?"(Shin)
Our parents scolded us both.

We are in world name of Ceunalle, Andrea Kingdom. My father- reincarnated and now called Henry- is now heir to the duke house of Ludiceas, while mom- now, Alexandra- is daughter of Marquis Claidence.
"How about you tell us what happened over there?"(Henry)
Both of us narrated everything and anything that we encounter in our adventures up until now. Mom got delighted I got a harem and become like protagonist at some manga or anime.
"I'm sorry for burdening both of you of everything."(Alexandra)
The two of us shook our head in denial.
"No. We understand."(Shira)
"Yeah. You can called that enlightened I guess. We encountered lots if stuff. Besides, Rin and others helped me."(Shin)
We smile at them with reassurance.
"Not that. Did the Ultimate Sage didn't explained to you the consequence of inheriting the gem? It's dangerous task."(Henry)
-Eh? Dangerous?
They sighed deeply together.
"As expected of devil kings, you become idiots."(Henry)
"No, no. As expected this is that sage's fault!!"(Alexandra)
"That's not my intention at all. Shin is way too compatible… No. That's not the words… As if the power fitted to him so it wouldn't burden him unnecessarily."(Takeru)
"You mustn't blindly choose the path given to you. Choose what suits you. If that path is not available, create that path yourself."(Shin)
I looked at the ceiling for a bit then gaze back at them.
"Everyone is different, you can't and shouldn't emulate others to perfection. Even if the ruler is the same, you draw different shapes. Trying to copy someone makes you a monster, a shapeshifter. Discarding your identity."(Shin)
"That's deep. Though the words aren't there yet."(Takeru)
I smile wryly. They told us that one wrong mistake on accepting it will risking myself be erased into existence. After meeting dad's parents, we decided to adjourn the reunion.

(POV-Narrator)
"Shira, wait."(Yuika/ Alexandra)
"Mother?"(Shira)
Before she could pass on the gate, Yuika called her.
"You are in love with him right?"(Yuika)
Her cheeks blushed and nodded shyly.
"Even so, I'm her sister. I can't-"(Shira)
"No. It is possible. You're now devil kings. Also, the gods doesn't marry their first degree of kin for a sole reason of not making their child even stronger and so rebel against them won't be much hassle. I'm sure all of you won't do the same mistakes."(Yuika)
Shira frowned at her mother relying on non-logical statement like that.
"I'm not talking only about your personalities. Shin is the sole inheritor. No one can surpasses that. He is the superlative among superlative already."(Yuika)
"… Yeah, right. I forgot about that. Thanks, mom. See you later."(Shira)
"… Not farewell eh?"(Yuika)
The two smiled at each other and Shira step towards the gate with light steps and resolute and bright smile.
"My son is truly a sinful man."(Yuika)
She giggles and changed her pace.
"What kind of research will I do next?"(Yuika)
