Setsu(), theres something I have to tell you

In the pure white space was a still very young boy and a pretty woman who looked like his mother.

I am floating and overlooking the two from above.

Where could this place be?

My head strangely hurts when I look at them.

Its as if Im forcibly digging up my memories

Is that so. this is Memories of the time when I was neither Setsu() nor Setsu(). (TL: setsu is how he went by in current lifes Japan; is how he is called by everyone in the world hes currently in and currently hes called which you could also speak out as setsu)

Its my previous life that I fed to Gluttony.

Even though I say that, I bet youll end up forgetting it even if I tell you now I guess Thats right, Ill carve it into your soul.

Mother put her hand on the chest of the very young me and talked.

You are my son. And I think you will bump into a lot of suffering because of that. You should have the options at the necessary hour and there will come a time where you will rob someone of their life. But you should do what you yourself want to do.

Mothers voice penetrated.

It has the feeling of having each of the partsthat mademe confirm it.

Beat up the fellows you want to beat up and protect the fellows you want to protect. Youre going to become strong enough to be able to do that

Said mother with a smile that is bad enough that it feels good.

But, you have to keep a promise with me

She shortly put the other hand on my head while saying so.

While slowly patting the head of the very young mes head, mother continued.

You have to, rob one person of their life, only a single one before you die. You wont become if you dont.

Noise ran for an instant and there was a small part I couldnt catch.

Isnt that part like the most important part?

Not killing is wrong and killing too much is wrong too. If you dont kill, then your soul will disappear along with your death. On the other hand, if you kill too much then youll be degraded to a regular criminal and then Ill have to perform the last rites to your death. You dont want that do you?

The very young me didnt understand what this was about.

Of course he didnt, the current me doesnt understand it either.

Well, you broke your promise and ended up killing two people though~

-!?

When I noticed, my consciousness went into the young me.

The womans way of talking stopped being like that of a past.

This girl, shes talking to the current me.

Not to the young me, but the me who now has ended up killing two people

You who end up robbing two people of their lives has to be shown the way to your death by my hands. And why I have to do this is You dont know do you?

Of course I dont.

You dont have to know, you will be dying here in any case.

The womans thin arm extended towards my throat.

Her hand was a little cold.

The body of this young me doesnt have the strength to brush off that hand.

Even if thats the case, I cant struggle and escape.

If she If this person says its the end, then its already the end of me.

Dont make it very painful please, mother. I hate pain even at this age.

HmphDespite not remembering it at all you did well calling me something like mother.

Even if I lost my memory, Ill still immediately know youre my mother. Even if I lost my memories, the fact that I was born from your womb, the words youve given me, your teachings too, all of them is carved onto my soul. You carved it in there didnt you?

Souls and stuff, its vague whether theyre honest or not.

Even so, I remember it, in spite of losing my memories of my previous life.

I remember that this person is my mother.

At a place much deeper than my heart, much deeper than my memories.

Why did I forget about it that the cause of me not killing people was my mother.

The time I talked to you about this was that time with that body of yours after all. It isnt unreasonable to not remember. Even so, your soul should have remembered about it.

I look at my mothers hand touching my chest.

I see She can carved it on me that way.

Ihave violated your orders I guess. Then so it really is inevitable for me to be erased

Honestly, I still cant comprehend the size of the matter.

Why only I cant kill two people, I couldnt accept it because I could not catch the important part.

But, I couldnt bring myself to oppose her.

Even if I go against mother, I probably wont be able to win.

This person is not standing in the same place as us.

If youre doing it, then do it in one go please You can do that right?

-haha! Youre really my kid.

Mother separated her hand from me, sat cross-legged and laughed as she struck her knees.

Shes terribly mannish and yet like a parent.

I can erase you anytime, so~. Lets reminisce for a bit. I cant recover your lost memories, but Ill talk about what kind of life I no, our family lived.

Yeah, please.

If my life ends either way, then Id want to hear about myself in the end.

About the time I was a person.

Yeah it doesnt matter anymore

What happens afterwards, what happens to those people none of it

matters anymore.

!

From Saigas pushed out spear, a thrust of magic appeared.

Shironeko twisted her body and intersected with that. Then she got in his bosom.

(Wha- I knew shes fast)

The nail that was swung towards Saigas defenseless body, Saiga defended it by forcibly bringing back his spear.

Both of them were repelled together with high pitched sound and each of them took distance.

Fushuu

Having slowly taken a short breath she had held in, Shironeko slowly sharpened her senses.

Because Saiga understood that Shironeko was slightly the stronger one, he could not carelessly leap upon her.

She was grateful for that and though it was little by little, she was able to turn her consciousness towards Mineko.

(Well, I dont even need to worry about her desu)

At the corner of her sight, the figure of Mineko kicking away Kuroinus stomach was projected.

Gahah

Haah!

When Kuroinu flinched from having received a powerful dropkick in her stomach, she perceived a high kick following up on that.

The surprising part of Mineko was the part where she throws a follow-up with only the twisting of her body and her physical strength in spite of floating due to having done a dropkick.

And unlike Kuroinu who rolled unsightly on the ground, Mineko landed firmly on the ground.

Dont get carried away You lowly cats! !

You say, but arent you a dog

Kuroinu got up and shot out an enormous flame sphere.

That which came flying straight towards her, Mineko watched it calmly and immediately saw through it.

!

The roundhouse kick filled with magic power caught the flame sphere.

Receiving the impact from right beside it, the flame sphere flew away to the side without hitting her.

It didnt break I guess I need more training

Kuh

Kuroinu was impatient within her mind.

It was because although she had a trump card, there was a chance that it would be overcome as is because she was being pressured in this situation.

While that may be true, she would certainly be defeated if she end up using her trump card and she couldnt bring her down even for an instant.

At the very least it was out of the question if she couldnt stop her movement.

(It is annoying, but I will call Saiga for cooperation and)

Uooooh!?

What are you doing?

Suddenly, Saiga fell down beside her.

From the fact he was out of breath and there were small wounds on his body, she could see he was attacked quite well.

Tch Scratches all over my body, dammit

Miserable arent you

Right back atcha, arent ya pretty flustered there?

Gh! Shut up, you.

A little after Saiga fell down, Shironeko landed beside Mineko.

Naturally, she was uninjured unlike him.

Why did you come flying, big sis

It was an airbattle desu. That aside, that boy called Saiga or something, hes quite good desu.

Looks like it.

When the elder sister finished the fight with minor injuries, Saigas ability was acknowledged.

And of course Shironeko also acknowledged the strength of Kuroinu who fought with Mineko and still hadnt collapsed.

A drawn out battle might be bad desu.

Eh?

These people, theyre absolutely hiding something desu. I want to at least take down Kuroinu desu.

Okay.

The glint in the eyes of the two sharply glared at Kuroinu.

Were doing that desu

Yes

Bloodthirst of the two calmly preparing catgirls had enough intensity to make ordinary men faint.

Enough to make Kuroinu and Saiga reflexively take a step back
