It’s possible Shin foresaw this and that’s the reason he had me put it here so he could get it back someday when he reincarnated.
“Well, even if you remember your past life not much would change. I don’t think there’s any real need to remember it.”
“Perhaps, but for now I’ll take this sword.”
“Don’t you want to carry on looking?”
“I like this sword.”
The sword is probably calling him but even if it’s not, deliberately choosing the most troublesome sword possible is something Shin would do.
“Shall we go back then?”
After reaching the surface me and Ray parted ways with me heading off to the Arnos fan union tower.
I enter the tower and start to head on up. I’d promised Melheys we’d talk.
As I approached the 2nd-floor familiar voices could be heard.
“Okay then. Now onto the lyrics of the Arnos-sama support song number 3. Anyone with any ideas please raise your hand.”
“Yes! I think this one should be about the feelings associated with the lines Arnos-sama has said.”
“What lines has he said?”
“Like the one he said during the demon sword training class [Did you think my head would break just because you cut a mountain in two?] that one.”
“Ohh. I like it.”
“That it? In the case of Arnos-sama, his head not breaking is nothing special. Doesn’t that line lack a good direction?”
“I agree.”
“If we do make lyrics like that then what would be the Arnos-sama style?”
The girls of the fan union fall into silence as they think but no one seems to have a good idea. After a while, a subdued voice spoke up.
“[Did you think we were dating because we kissed?]”
The girls let out a scream.
“Fiend! Arnos-sama you brute! But it sounds so good!! It’s cool! It’s definitely something Arnos-sama would say!”
That not something I’d say.
“Then how about this? [Did you think you took my heart just because I held you?]”
“Nooooo!! The brute!! But I definitely want to be told that!!”
“[Just because we’ve met at noon did you think I wouldn’t want your body?]”
“A straight delivery! That’s too fast Arnos-sama! Being active from lunch!”
“How about this? [Did you think I’d marry you just because you love me?]”
“I don’t know anymoooooore! It’s too mysterious! My brain is overheating!”
“The last line could be [Did you think you stopped being my thing just because I threw you away?]”
“Noo! I don’t want to be thrown away! Stop it, stop it Arnos-sama. You say it like I’m a convenient girl……..its cruel……”
Fumu. What the hell is going on?
“This has a good feeling now. Is the storyline any good?”
“I think so, yes. Let’s go for a love song for the 3rd Arnos-sama support song!”
“Wait a minute. A love song isn’t a support song is it? How are we supposed to sing that when Arnos-sama is fighting?”
“Ah, that’s right.”
“It would be odd……..”
“What if we think of it this way? Because Arnos-sama is so strong and all fights are trivial to him, he hears our song and his heart burns with love and desire to spend the night with his chosen one!?”
For a moment total silence came and then.
“Ge….geniuuuuuuuuuuuuuus!! Have you seen through the heart of Arnos-sama!?”
You didn’t see through my heart.
“Ehehe……….Just because it’s a support song it doesn’t mean it can’t also be a love song.”
A giant scream sounded throughout the tower.
Fumu. Whatever. Let’s just pretend I didn’t hear anything.
I need to talk to Melheys and they are happy and having fun.
I carry on up the tower.
