I don't know what happened too
Ryujin prayed to the Gods to give Imae a chance to feel happiness and never feel sad, Imae's happiness is basically Ryujin's recovery from his injury and as well as the priviledge to stay beside Ryujin forever and live happily, lovey dovey. Since Ryujin is not an ordinary human, I guess he was heard by the Gods or was either given help from the immortal being who possibly went inside him or something? Immortal beings are supposed to use Ryujin's body to ascend into heaven and from what I remember, I believe that it was one of the immortal beings who told Ryujin to pray enough in order for your wish to be granted. I guess, Ryujin remembered that moment and gave it a shot during his near death experience as he leaned against Imae's warmth as his dear lover wraps his arms around Ryujin with soft dripping tears that streamed down his cheeks to his beloved, Ryujin's pale yet fair skinned complexion. ╮(￣▽￣)╭(〜￣△￣)〜 ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Err... what just happened? How exactly did they win in the end? And wasn't Ryujin supposed to become an immortal? If he didn't, how did he survive? Is everything just a dream/illusion now or something?
