Even if I transform, I will never be captured.

Not only the interior lights, but also the exterior lights of the shops facing the street were hung with colorful lights, and rows of lights like Christmas tree decorations began to twinkle, turning the whole city into a sea of ​​lights.

The huge float slowly moved forward as children chased after it, with performers showcasing their talents on board.

boom!

The magic fireworks exploded, and colorful confetti drifted in the breeze, like a thousand blossoms scattered by the wind, falling like rain and landing on Misaki Shokuhou's hair.

She took the colored paper off her hands, held it in her hand, and closed her eyes.

Upbeat music filled the air, a tune packed with electronic sounds, sounding like background music from a children's theme park.

—This is what a nighttime parade looks like.

During the Daihasei Festival, a large-scale lighting ceremony with neon lights or lasers will be held after sunset. After the competition, a parade of electronically decorated vehicles and mobile stages will be held throughout Academy City.

Because the Daibasei Festival is sponsored by a television station, the scale of the parade is considerable, and many entertainers will participate.

The Academy City Council usually sets the last bus of the transportation system to coincide with the end of the school term in order to prevent people from going out at night, but today is an exception.

Therefore, although the nighttime parade is not a super-large holiday like Christmas or Valentine's Day, it is still a very popular activity among students.

—For the students, the nighttime parade was, in a sense, a battle just as fierce as the daytime competition.

That's right, it's a war called "Date A Live"!

The romantic atmosphere of a nighttime parade goes without saying. A date during such an event would surely be a wonderful memory for a lifetime.

With this reason—

The boy asked the girl he liked out.

The girl asked the boy she liked out.

Couples took to the streets, enjoying the romantic atmosphere of the nighttime parade.

At the same time, Misaki Shokuhou made an appointment with Satella.

She didn't know how many days Satella would stay here this time, but in any case, she was determined to create precious memories tonight!

It will definitely work!

Misaki Shokuhou subconsciously tightened her grip on the handbag at her waist, inside which was a dating guidebook.

During the twenty-odd days that Satella was away, Misaki Shokuhou had been conducting related research, reading no fewer than a hundred books on the subject. Her theoretical knowledge was incredibly rich, and she was well-versed in the art of dating.

but……

I'm still so nervous!

What if I'm too proactive and make Satella dislike me?

What if Satella hates crowds and doesn't want to come?

What if I don't like what I'm wearing today, Satella?

in case……

Although the two had already engaged in intimate acts beyond dating, this was, after all, their first date after the formal confession! The significance was completely different!

Like many couples experiencing their first love, Misaki Shokuhou felt a surge of nervousness. She felt as if she weren't standing on a street, but on a battlefield, the hot, smoky wind blowing against her cheek.

Huh? Why does it seem like there's actually hot air?

Misaki Shokuhou turned her head and found Satella panting at her from very close range. Misaki Shokuhou almost fainted from fright. With a "whoosh," she jumped back and raised her hands into a defensive stance from a fighting game.

“Sa...Satella?!”

"Yes Yes!"

Satella stood with her feet together and straightened her back as she answered.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment. Misaki Shokuhou and Satella stared at each other with wide eyes, then suddenly—

"Pfft!"

The two of them burst out laughing.

"Fufu~☆, I can't take it anymore, Satella, you look so incredibly cute! What are you doing? Are you a model soldier waiting for inspection?"

"Shokuhou-chan, your pose is the funniest, isn't it? Do you think you're Ultraman preparing to fight monsters?"

The tension vanished instantly.

Misaki Shokuhou's star-like eyes sparkled with joy as she lightly leaped to Satella's side and naturally took her arm.

Satella awkwardly pulled her arm away and suggested, "Honeysuckle, this is really uncomfortable. How about we just walk hand in hand normally?"

"No! I want to hold your arm!" Misaki Shokuhou snorted. "And tonight, I want you to accompany me through the entire nighttime parade."

"But I want to go home and play games!"

"Games don't have to be played at home, you can play them outside too! I know a pretty famous arcade, let's go there now! Let's go! gogogo~~☆"

Pressing her entire body against Satella, Misaki Shokuhou stealthily glanced at the soothed Satella, revealing a sly smile like a little fox from an angle Satella couldn't see.

--who is she?

She's a dating guru who's read hundreds of books on the subject!

So of course she wouldn't think that dating only involves amusement parks, movie theaters, and shopping, like some protagonists in light novels.

In fact, as one of the people who knows Satella best, Misaki Shokuhou is very clear that if Satella really chooses these three projects, it will be tantamount to a death sentence!

After all, Satella, being a homebody, is completely averse to all three of these activities.

There are no fixed plans for a date, as long as you can create a pink atmosphere and leave precious memories.

Misaki Shokuhou knows she's not good at games and will likely hold Satella back by playing, appearing clumsy and awkward.

But isn't this side of a girl the most adorable?

Misaki Shokuhou knows very well that Satella, despite her sometimes naive and lazy nature, is surprisingly manly.

Seeing his girlfriend's weak, pitiful, and helpless side would surely arouse her protective instincts, right?

She will definitely teach me step by step when the time comes.

Misaki Shokuhou had already conjured up a picture in her mind.

It was a pink scene of herself sitting on a stool, with Satella standing close behind her, bending over, whispering in her ear, and gently holding her hands.

"Little Caoqi, is there anything you don't know how to do in this game?"

"I can't do anything~"

"There's no other way, it seems I'll have to teach you step by step."

"..."

FUFUFUFUFUFUFU~~~☆

Everything is under my control!

Misaki Shokuhou looked at Satella as if she were looking at a small animal that had already fallen into a net.

She felt as if she were Zhou Yu, the handsome general in Chinese history, who devised brilliant strategies to bring peace to the world.

With this eager feeling, Misaki Shokuhou pushed open the door of an arcade called "GAU".

Then, she saw Misaka Mikoto playing a game inside.
