Back at the shrine, the god tells Rentarō that a person is supposed to only have one soulmate if any, but because he made a mistake on the paperwork, Rentarō wound up with 100 of them. Because Hakari and Karane are both among his soulmates, he is unable to choose between them, and even if he did, any soulmate who does not get into a relationship with him will die.
