Technique

**Technique** (術法, *Jutsu-hō*?) refers to supernatural arts that a Gift-user can deploy.

## Description

Techniques and Gifts are two completely different things. The strength of the Gift will vary according to the innate qualifications of the individual. Even if they do not have a specific Gift, as long as one has the ability to see Grotesqueries, Spirit-Sight, that person who can feel the "power" of non-human things, through learning and training, they will also become able to use techniques.

Each technique user has different talents, so they will have techniques they are good at and not good at, and there will also be differences in the power of the techniques they use. However, whether they are people with Gifts or people with Spirit-Sight, this is the foundation they must learn first. Anyone with Spirit-Sight is capable of learning the supernatural technique of familiar manipulation. As most women aren't expected to battle Grotesqueries themselves, not many cared about mastering paranormal crafts. Despite that, most, like Kaya are still capable of constructing a paper familiar and using Share-Sight to see through its eyes. Other known techniques include opening barriers, curse technique, magic, magic removal technique, exorcism and onmyōjutsu.

In the Special Anti-Grotesquerie Unit, all members possess Spirit-Sight. Out of them, there are only a few who possess other Gifts as well. The majority of them are unable to use specific Gifts, but are proficient in the usage of techniques. Some of these members participate in the analysis team's experiments. Another known group of Gift-users known to employ techniques are the practitioners from the Ministry of the Imperial Household, who are able to use specialized magical apparatus and erect exceptionally strong barriers.

To use techniques, additional equipment may be used, such as the case of paper when creating paper familiars or specialized magical apparatus to recover souls that escaped from the Burial Grounds.

The knowledge about supernatural techniques and Gifts are still available in the old capital, compared to the imperial capital where they have fallen into obscurity.

## The First Date

**The First Date** (初めてのデヱト, *Hajimete no Deweto*?) is the second chapter of Volume 1 of the *My Happy Marriage* novel.

## Summary

Yurie gives Miyo Saimori a sewing kit that she previously requested. After soothing Miyo's doubts and concerns regarding Kiyoka and her own emotions, Yurie leaves Miyo to continue with her own chores, but not before stealthily watching Miyo mending her threadbare garments.

Over dinner on Miyo's tenth evening at Kiyoka's house, Kiyoka Kudou causally invites Miyo to go into the city with him on his next day off. Miyo initially protests, stating that she has no errands to run herself, but Kiyoka counters that she doesn't need a reason to go out and that he could use the company. With no reason left to refuse, she agrees and they part ways for the evening.

That night, Miyo has a dream about the Saimori estate. In her dream, she is gazing at her mother's cherry tree, originally planted in residence's inner courtyard when her parents were married. It's in full bloom and beside it stands her mother in a pale-pink kimono that has cherry blossoms just like the tree. Her mother tries to speak urgently to Miyo, but Miyo is unable to hear her. In the next moment, the petals are scattered by a gust of wind and Miyo sees her mother urgently pleading to Shinichi Saimori to not reject their daughter for being Giftless. After he walks away, Sumi apologizes to Miyo and asks for forgiveness for being a good-for-nothing mother. She starts to say something about what will occur in the future, but Miyo wakes up before she can hear what her mother says and is left pondering what it could be.

The morning of the outing, Miyo despondently readies herself, comparing herself with the dream version of her beautiful mother. She is interrupted by Yurie who offers to put makeup on Miyo and when they finish, Kiyoka appears and asks if Miyo is ready to go. She confirms that she is and they depart by car, stopping briefly at the Special Anti-Grotesquerie Unit station to park where they exchange words with Yoshito Godou, and then continue by foot into town.

They visit Suzushima's kimono store, where Kiyoka leaves Miyo in the main part of the store to converse with the owner, Keiko. He approves of various fabrics chosen by Keiko to be made into kimonos for Miyo, adding a cherry blossom fabric and a comb. They then stop for a dessert before returning back home, where Kiyoka gifts Miyo the comb.

Later at the Unit Headquarters, Kiyoka reads a report submitted by his informant regarding his investigation on the Saimori household. After reading the report and concluding his duties, Kiyoka heads home but not before destroying shadow creatures that had been following him.

He is a relative of Fuyu Kudou, who comes from a family of people with the Healing Gift. He is a doctor who could heal injuries very well with his Healing Gift, but he charges an exorbitant amount for it as a ‘special service fee.’ However, there’s no question he’s got skills, enough to make the fees worth it when push truly comes to shove.

### Volume 4

When Kiyoka Kudou and Miyo Saimori visit the injured Yoshito Godou in the military hospital at the Imperial Army headquarters, they encounter Jakuji, who just exits Yoshito's hospital room. He greets Kiyoka, who responds with a disgusting look that it has been a while since they last saw each other. Jakuji laughs saying that Kiyoka hasn't changed and calls his way of treating him arrogant. Kiyoka tells him to stop with his creepy laugh, to which Jakuji laughs some more and tells him to not sweat over small stuff like the way someone laughs. Kiyoka inquires about how Yoshito is doing and Jakuji responds that it is good enough to have visitors. His wounds don’t stand out as much as they used to, but his stamina’s dropped remarkably, so Jakuji believes that it’ll be a prolonged stay. He tells them that Yoshito can easily be able to make it back before the end of the year. Before he leaves, he flashes her a truly repulsive smirk, causing her hasty smile to waver. When Kiyoka explains Jakuji's background, Miyo realizes that Yoshito's injuries are horrible enough to warrant this doctor’s aid.

Opinokinesis

**Opinokinesis** (五感操作, *Gokan sōsa*?) is the ability to manipulate the five senses.

## Description

Users with the Gift of opinokinesis are able to distort the sensory experience of the five senses of the eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and skin, transforming them into a state that is different from reality. It is an extremely powerful ability, so most of them would have postnatal restrictions imposed on them. Some Gift-users with this ability, like those recorded in old notebooks in the Usuba estate, are be able to avoid such treatment because of their relatively honest and kind personalities. The weakness of this Gift is that it can only be used for a short time, and the effect only lasts for about an hour. If they want to extend it by another hour, the user can only use it three times a day. The range of use is also limited to the range that one can see with the naked eye. If the user wants to break this restriction, the cerebrum of the brain will be overwhelmed and damaged. If such a powerful force are to be exerted inadequately, it would naturally put a heavy burden on the body. However, one may counter this weakness, by controlling the power for a short time and narrowing the effective range, then adjust it delicately and frequently like pressing the "on" and "off" buttons of a mechanical switch.

## History

In the far past there have been users who possesses opinokinesis. Around forty years ago, Naoshi Usui is born in the Usui family, a branch family of the Usuba family and awakened the Usuba Gift of opinokinesis. Because this Gift cannot be used for a long time, after he left the Usuba family, he had to spend many years studying the technology of Gifts. It would be helpful if he is able to reduce the restrictions on his Gift and achieve his plan to overthrow the current government, as long as he manages to control the important figures in the country from behind.

She realizes that no matter how delicious she makes them, they would still be cold by the time Kiyoka gets to eat them, unlike the warm meals in the cafetaria.

After her visit of Yoshito Godou at the military hospital in the military headquarters, Kaoruko wanders into the empty cafeteria, Staring at a cup of water, she starts feeling emotional after recalling Yoshito's words. Unbeknownst to her, Yabunaga notices her and approaches. Standing by her side, he looks down at her and calls her name. When she looks up, he silently offers her a white handkerchief, expressing concern that he can't have her crying there just before others come in for lunch. Although his words are vitriolic, his underlying kindness is evident, considering he’d left his kitchen during the busiest time of day to personally hand her a handkerchief. Kaoruko thanks him, and this only makes her cry more. She accepts the handkerchief and wipes her tears. Yabunaga grunts and gestures with his chin toward the cafeteria entrance, where Miyo is observing them. Miyo joins them at the table, and Yabunaga replaces Kaoruko's cup with two teacups filled with warm green tea.

## Summary

At the Saimori household, Miyo Saimori is treated like a servant despite the fact that she is the oldest daughter. One day, her father Shinichi Saimori informs her that her younger half-sister Kaya Saimori will be marrying her childhood friend and only ally, Kouji Tatsuishi, while Miyo will be marrying Kiyoka Kudou, the head of the Special Anti-Grotesquerie Unit and a man infamous for his coldness towards his fiancée candidates. Miyo goes to Kiyoka's house the next day and meets Yurie, Kiyoka's old nursemaid, and Kiyoka himself, who treats her coldly as she expected. When Miyo attempts to make breakfast for him, he harshly rejects it, accusing her of poisoning it.

After Yurie scolds him and tells him that Miyo is different from the other girls, he apologizes. The next day, Kiyoka eats the breakfast Miyo makes and compliments her, causing her to cry tears of joy because this was the first time someone has ever praised her cooking. Kiyoka becomes curious about Miyo's background, since her behaviour is unlike the daughter of a noble family. He decides to investigate the Saimori family. Miyo, on the other hand, is stunned by Kiyoka's unexpected kindness and worries over what will happen if he learns that she is Giftless.

Meanwhile, Minoru Tatsuishi, the head of the Tatsuishi family, is furious at Shinichi for marrying Miyo to Kiyoka instead of Kouji because he wants the powerful Gift she inherited from her mother Sumi Saimori, a member of the Usuba family, to be passed down to his own heirs.

* Manga

> Miyo Saimori upon meeting Hazuki in Chapter 18

Hazuki is a beautiful young woman with wavy neck-length platinum-blonde hair (shoulder-length tea-brown hair in the manga) that has bangs hanging on the left side (split bangs hanging on either side in the manga) and forest-green eyes.

## Personality

Hazuki is a confident and poised modern young woman who loves her younger brother Kiyoka Kudou and tutors Miyo Saimori in becoming a proper lady.

Hazuki is much more extroverted than her more composed younger brother. Unfortunately, her innate personality was incompatible with being a housewife in Japan at the time of the story.

## Abilities

* Healing: Hazuki's gift specializes in healing those around her, which she inherits from the maternal side of her family.

## Trivia

* Hazuki's hair color is different in the anime and manga:
	+ The manga describes her as having brown hair.
	+ The anime makes her a blonde like Kiyoka Kudou.
* It is implied that Hazuki and Masashi Ookaito keep in regular contact in order to support their young son, Asahi Ookaito.

### Name Origin

* The name **Hazuki** means "leaf, plane, lobe, needle, blade, spear, counter for flat things, fragment, piece" (葉) (**ha**) and "moon" (月) (**tsuki**/**zuki**).
	+ **Hadzuki**/**Hazuki** (葉月) is the traditional name for August, meaning "month of leaves", with the older form of it being 葉落ち月 (haochidzuki/haochizuki, はおちづき) which means "month of falling leaves".
Tsuruki Trading office

* Anime
* Manga

**Tsuruki Trading office** (?) is a corporate building that serves as the headquarters of the Tsuruki Trading company and is owned by the Usuba family.

## Description

The building is standing on a plot of land in the Imperial Capital, a few minutes away from the Usuba estate. It has a two-story structure and a brick facade. A large storeroom is attached to the building. Above the double doors at the entrance, sparkling clean glass windows fitted in their frames, is a large sign that read TSURUKI TRADING.

Inside is an immaculate and pristine lobby that is stretched out in front of the entrance. A young male employee sits at the reception desk in the lobby, ready to inquire about visitors' purposes. In case of unannounced visits, there's a room behind the desk where the employee can consult with other staff members.

The first floor bustles with industrious laborers going about their work, creating a lively atmosphere. In contrast, the second floor exudes a tranquil and hushed ambiance. Towards the end of the hallway on the second floor, there's an office room with a name plate that read "SENIOR NEGOTIATOR" on the door. It serves as the workspace of Arata Usuba.

## Epilogue

**Epilogue** (終章, *Shuushou*?) is the epilogue of Volume 3 of the *My Happy Marriage* novel.

## Summary

The Special Anti-Grotesquerie Unit has received the order to immediately neutralize Gifted Communion followers activity in an abandoned temple on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital. Yoshito Godou orders his subordinates to encircle the temple. Upon his signal, they storm inside, but find it completely deserted. Suddenly, he hears a sizzling sound and spots a packed gunpowder with a lit fuse that hadn't been there previously. Yoshito orders everyone to conjure a barrier, but just a moment later, the temple is consumed by a massive explosion.

Meanwhile, Miyo Saimori, Kiyoka Kudou and Arata Usuba disembark onto the train platform in the capital's central station. As they make their way through the station crowd, they discuss their plans moving forward, but pause abruptly when they sense the Usuba Gift. Feeling as though the world has momentarily separated the three of them from the ordinary flow of time and space, a man suddenly emerges out of thin air and approaches them, offering a greeting to the two men and addresses Miyo with "my dear daughter".

Combs and Memories

**Combs and Memories** (?) is a short story written by the author of the novel, Akumi Agitogi. It is included in Manga Volume 1 and is accompanied by an illustration by the mangaka Rito Kohsaka.

The story takes place shortly after Kiyoka Kudou has gifted Miyo Saimori a comb after their first date.

## Summary

That night, Miyo places the newly received comb and her old comb besides each other. As she gazes at the pair, her thoughts return to when she lived in the Saimori household. As Kanoko confiscated most of her belongings when she was a little girl, her daily effects were gifted by the servants. They were all so worn it would be no good anymore. Half of the teeth were already missing from the comb she got, but Miyo still used it to brush her hair every day.

One morning, around five or six years ago, her comb snapped right in half. She used her fingers to rake through her hair to make herself presentable. When Kanoko saw her, she threw a heavy porcelain ornament at her, chastising her for not being able to groom herself. Miyo whipped her arms up and the object hits her arms. Without complaining about the pain, she bowed and apologized. Kanoko continues to curse at her, wishing for her death. Miyo apologised until her stepmother was satisfied and left.

The wound was so severe that Miyo collapsed near the servants' entrance. As she was on the verge of passing out, an unfamiliar young servant asked her if she is alright. When the servant rucked up Miyo's sleeve, a dark red swollen bruise was visible. Returning with a box of medical supplies, the servant began treating her arm. Miyo warns her that if Kanoko or Kaya find out, they will punish her. However, the servant says that there is no need to worry, as she will be quitting the job soon to return to her village. When Miyo thanked her, the servant apologized for ignoring all abuse directed at Miyo in the past two months of her working here and felt that helping her now makes her feel better. She handed Miyo a practically brand-new comb as an apology for using Miyo to assuage her own guilt.

Back to the present, Miyo tries to remember the girl and wishes both this girl and Hana happiness for being the only ones who brought her warmth in a cold household. Despite the fact that the old comb is of no use anymore, she would always keep it with her. Thinking about the way Kiyoka gifted her the comb, she believes combs always brings kindness with them.

Novel Volume 2 Prologue

## Prologue

**Epilogue** (序章, *Joshou*?) is the prologue of Volume 2 of the *My Happy Marriage* series.

## Summary

On a hot summer day, Arata Usuba spots a woman holding a parasol with an extremely pale face in the buzzing streets of the Imperial Capital and immediately knows it's Miyo Saimori. He doesn't have any particular business with her this instant, but he simply wants to get a glimpse of the girl he heard so much about. Suddenly, the woman loses balance as she walks over to his direction and Arata half-heartedly extends his arms to catch her. Seeing how frail she is, he pities her and also feels satisfied that he would be protecting this woman going forward.

An elderly man, addressed with Your Majesty, is lying on a futon in a spatious parlor, with his body having withered away and his memories eluding him as of late. Soon, a chestnut-haired young man arrives to request his permission regarding an incident. The old man had put this pawn, necessary for his current plans, on standby for the time being. Knowing that preparations would soon be complete, he authorizes the young man his actions. After the young man leaves, the old man rings a bell and orders a chamberlain to drive the ghosts in the Burial Grounds to the countryside.
