Illustrations Chapter 1: Surely this route will be interesting ~ Shape of Happiness ~ ◆ Mizuto Irido ◆ “Mizuto-kun–I think you have already realized what your happiness looks like, don’t you?” The man, who is much more mature than I am, said this as if he could see through everything. “Hollywood movies end with a kiss, and RPGs end with a wedding. That is the stereotype of ‘happiness’ that many people imagine. In reality, however, happiness is not a constant, and people who are considered lonely by others may be enjoying life to a great extent, and people who are considered inept by others may be content with their current situation – they themselves may be unaware of it, looking only at the blue grass next to them and pursuing what they do not really need. Even comedies are not uncommon, in which people are pursuing something they don’t really need, without realizing it themselves.” The words spun smoothly, like a clear stream. “You are probably more intelligent than most people. That’s why, at your age, you realized early on that your happiness was not in the form of a ‘family’.” Everyone, somehow, envisions a future with a family. A future with a family. A partner, children, living in the same house – we envision such a future as if it were imprinted on us. But is that really necessary? Is it really necessary for my life? “If you are a junior high school student, you can remain a child without second thoughts. If you are a college student, you are expected to behave as an adult. A high school student is in between – a chrysalis-like state of being both a child and an adult. This is my theory, and I sympathize with you. You are too young and too mature to make any decisions–“ It’s someone else’s problem, I think. Not him. It’s me. Even at this point, I can’t believe it’s me. “Which will you be?” Still, the choice is stark. “You can go back to being a child and make reckless choices, letting your emotions take over and praying that it will end well, like in an RPG – or you can move on to adulthood and try to be as efficient as you can be at this moment in time. Or, we can shut down our emotions and pursue our own form of happiness efficiently, as if it were an RTA.” Keikoin Ryosei smiled like a game master. “I wish you a better choice. As the former father of your step-sibling.” ◆ Irito Mizuto ◆ It was December. The autumn season is over, and winter has finally begun to show his true colors.
