Before you know it, it's dusk, the blue sky is dyed red, and the sea turns a beautiful orange.

Standing on the beach at the bow of the ship, the four seasons watch the sunset gradually dipping below the horizon, and it burns with magnificent brilliance on the dividing line that divides the sea and the sky.

It's already this time, and it's hard to feel that time has come to this time, as if the passage of time has produced a sense of some kind of dislocation.

As the day ended, the others were packing up their things and walking towards him.

"It's beautiful......!"

I heard a voice from beside me, and there was pure emotion in it.

"Hatsu Sakura."

Shiki turned his head, and the figure of Hatsuzakura came into his eyes.

The cherry ribbons fluttered in the sea breeze, and she gently pressed her beautiful long hair that danced, and her gentle movements revealed a feeling that was different from usual. Her eyes were fascinated by the distant sunset, and the light of the dusk stained her body with a faint gold, making her whole body seem to be burning.

I don't know why the seasons can't look away.

"Four seasons?"

Tilting her head slightly, Hatsuzakura once again showed the familiar appearance of the four seasons.

"It's beautiful."

Looking at the same scenery side by side with Hatsuzakura, it seems that you can feel each other's feelings.

Hatsuzakura took a step to the side, leaning her body against Shiki's body.

The four seasons didn't move, so they let the first cherry blossom rely on themselves.

At some point, Shiki discovered that Hatsuzakura's gaze had shifted from the setting sun to herself.

"What's wrong?"

"Woo~~~ Four seasons, I like it."

"Really?"

In the face of the first cherry blossoms who frankly told their hearts, the four seasons also responded bluntly.

"Me too."

Under the touch of the four seasons, Hatsuzakura's animal ears shook happily.

The sun slowly sets, and soon only the last rays of light remain.

As if nostalgic, Hatsuzakura stretched out her hand as if trying to catch the last rays of light.

“……”

Then from the hand held by Hatsuzakura shone came out, a brilliant golden light.

The light spread to Hatsu Sakura's body, making her figure hazy.

In the golden light that surrounded her, there seemed to be a touch of cherry flame burning violently.

Hatsuzakura had a worried expression and cast a pleading glance at Shiki.

Shiki shook Hatsuzakura's hand, and she smiled as if she was relieved.

Hatsuzakura's figure was reflected in the Tamamo Town Stone, and it resonated with it.

The sun set below sea level, but the sun didn't go away.

Shiki felt that the hand that held him back was infused with more strength, and that hand was still soft, but it was slightly different from before.

Shiki looked at Hatsuzakura with his head slightly down, but unlike before, his gaze was a little higher than usual. If it used to be below the chest, it is now over the chest.

“？”

Hatsuzakura blinked, as if she hadn't figured out what was going on.

But from the perspective of others, it's clear at a glance.,At this time, the first cherry blossom has changed from the original Lori to the girl's posture.,It's not changed to the appearance of Huangquan.,But the girl's posture that belongs to the first cherry.。

Hatsuzakura's tail stretched out behind her, and three of them contained great power.

"Four seasons."

Hatsuzakura whispered the names of the four seasons, and her tone was different from the past.

"It's getting shorter."

“……”

"But I like it when I'm shorter. Hey~~~"

"It's not that I'm getting shorter, it's that the first cherry blossoms are getting taller."

Feel the change in the first cherry blossoms, and at the same time the four seasons point out her mistakes.

"Huh?"

As if noticing this, Hatsuzakura lowered her head and looked at her body.

"Really."

Not only in terms of height, but also in terms of figure, Hatsuzakura's figure has become closer to that of an adult woman. Because it is a swimsuit, you can see it very clearly. Especially the breasts,Maybe it can't be described as an ordinary adult woman.,The plump part almost pops out of the swimsuit.,Because it originally fits Lori's body shape.,So at this time it's about to be overwhelmed.。

No, it's overwhelmed. With Hatsuzakura's large movements, the strap of the swimsuit was loosened, and then the object full of presence rushed into Shiki's eyes.

"Ahh

Hatsuzakura clutched her chest.

"Don't look at ~~~ Even if it's the four seasons, people will be shy~~~"

Hatsu Sakura's eyes kept looking at the four seasons, and although she said that she was shy, there was a sense of happiness in her tone.

“……”

Sure enough, this look is different from the usual Hatsuzakura, not only in appearance, but also in the inner aspect.

Shiki probably understood what had happened to Hatsuzakura.

“…… Can you explain to me what's going on? ”

By this time, Miyuki and the others had returned.

"Sister Miyuki ~~~"

Hatsuzakura opens her arms and hugs Miyuki.

"W-What?"

Miyuki was startled, although Hatsuzakura usually always hugs her, but it's not what it looks like now, and she only calls herself "Sister Miyuki" in an intellectual personality, but there will be no ups and downs in tone at all. I have never called myself so emotional...... Wrong! I did, and it's not the first time I've seen this one.

Miyuki had a bad premonition in her heart.

After feeling the soft squeeze coming from Hatsuzakura's chest, she felt even worse.

Finally the sun had completely set, and only a faint light was scattered from the sun below sea level.

"Woo~~~"

Hatsuzakura let out a mutter, and the golden glow on her body faded, like the radiance that was about to dissipate.

"Four seasons."

Shiki caught Hatsuzakura's outstretched hand, and then felt the weight from the other party.

The light disappeared completely, and the boundary between sea and sky gradually dissolved into the darkness of the night.

Hatsuzakura looked at the dividing line, as if nostalgic for that scenery.

"Whew~~~"

The light on Hatsu Sakura's body disappeared, and Shiki picked up Hatsu Sakura who fell asleep, and her body had changed back to its original form.

"What's going on?"

It was only then that Miyuki was able to ask.

"It's almost there. Reach the strength of the third tail. ”

Shiki knows that Hatsu Sakura's strength is growing all the time, and Hatsuzakura has temporarily reached Mio in the last mission, and today's event is just an opportunity.

"Really? What about Hatsu Sakura's performance just now? ”

That kind of behavior is different from usual.

"A third personality seems to have been formed."

As early as when he asked Miss Yu before, Shiki was prepared for this situation.

"Third personality...... Why do I feel a sense of déjà vu? ”

That kind of behavior reminded Miyuki of a person.

"It's probably based on real people."

This condition is also uncommon in people with split personality.

"Sure enough, my family's first cherry blossom was taught badly!"

Shiki looked at Miyuki with a sad and angry face, and he didn't think it was a bad thing.

Anyway, Hatsu Sakura's body is completely fine, it's just that the physical consumption of the breakthrough is very high.

The stars shone brightly on the sea at night, and Shiki walked back to the cabin with the sleeping Hatsuzakura and the others.
