Chapter 3 - ICISEI Episode 3

Episode 3: Three Years Minimum, Death Penalty Maximum! Marriage?!?

~Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse World~

"Seriously... even without aliens, these humans are still fighting each other. Non-stop brawling."

Yuuya was totally weirded out by what he was seeing.

"You're right. They get to live by the sea; so lucky. Our oceans are all bugged out."

Chriska was super envious of Louise's surroundings.

"This world... It's so nice."

Inia hugged her little bear, her eyes all dreamy.

"We risk our lives fighting alien bugs just to survive..."

"And these guys are fighting over power?! So pointless!"

Hwang, the Argos squad captain, fiddled with his giant mecha, prepping for the next alien bug onslaught.

『 Saito, back still turned to Louise, wiped his eyes and gave up on talking her out of it.

"Let's have a drink!"

Louise was confused. Why a drink now? "Saito?"

"Where I'm from, a drink is how you say goodbye!"

"Wait... is this your 'farewell ceremony'?"

"Farewell?!" Louise was shocked, her sadness kinda fading.

Saito started digging through some junk nearby.

"Found it! Found it!"

"A little booze at a time like this, it's gotta be okay, right?"

Saito pulled out a wine bottle and was wrestling with the cap.

"Can't... get it open!"

Dude's from modern Japan. Doesn't he know wine needs a corkscrew?

Meanwhile, Louise blushed like crazy, whispering, "Saito, um... before we part, I have something to ask."

"What is it?"

"Since it's the end anyway, I'll do whatever you want."

Saito, still battling the bottle, replied casually.

Louise was practically steaming, anyone would think she was just a shy little girl.

She looked at Saito, her voice barely whispering, "I... I want..."

"Want what?"

Saito was totally clueless, completely missing her blushing face.

"I'm telling you..."

Seeing Saito still struggling with the cap, Louise snapped, grabbed his ear, and yelled, all flustered, "I want to get married!"

Then she shoved him away, making him fall on his butt, pouting like a proud, shy kitten.

"Marriage...?"』

『 ..... 』

~Chat Room~

[Kuzuryuu Yaichi: "Wait, marrying a loli?!"]

[Kuzuryuu Yaichi: "He's too lucky... no, too hateful! He must be punished severely!"]

[Hiratsuka Shizuka: "Kid, that's a dangerous idea."]

[Katou Megumi: "Um, three years minimum, death penalty maximum."]

[Aki Tomoya: "As expected, anime is awesome."]

~Zero no Tsukaima World~

Tristain Academy of Magic.

"Oh my, that Louise, so bold! Proposing like that, so cute!"

The old headmaster chuckled, his face all smiles.

The guinea pig next to him stared, eyes wide.

"That's... Louise, the 'Zero Mage'?"

"Whoa, Louise is going for it!"

"I didn't think little Louise would be so forward..."

"But darling's mine! I won't give up!"

Chululu hugged Saito, shoving his face into her... well, you know.

As the Zerbst family head, she wasn't giving up on her target!

"Ugh--! Can't... breathe."

Louise, seeing this, was boiling, her hair practically standing on end.

"You... let go of Saito! You big-boobed, airheaded idiot!"

Louise gripped her wand, shaking with rage.

That Chululu always steals the boys Louise likes.

『 "You... you misunderstood!"

"I just don't want to die unmarried... it's not like I want to marry you!"

Louise crossed her arms, trying to explain, all flustered.

"Well... you'll do, I guess!"

"In this situation, I'll just settle - hmph!" 』
