After being told by Mizuho and Marion that Yuto's memories had returned, Yuto and the three of them moved to the reception room of the Mattoo mansion while the soldiers were moving about in a hurry.
　Entering the reception room, Yuto and the others sat face-to-face on the sofa, and Yuto was the first to open his mouth.

''Mizuho-san, Marion-san, I'm sure you have a lot of questions you want to ask me, but... I'm sorry, I can't tell you everything. But I will tell you both everything I can about me. Also, I want you to keep what I'm about to tell you as private as possible.

　Mizuho and Marion just nodded at Yuto's words.

''Fine, even my family, the Shitenji family, has some things they can't tell you all about. That's something that happens to people of all abilities.''

''That's right.... But it has something to do with the fact that all of Yuto-san's existence has disappeared from our memories this time, doesn't it?

　Yuto nodded at Marion's natural question and then..................looked at their faces.

'I'm not a natural gifted person. My family also comes from a family of gifted people. I'm keeping this a secret for a reason.''

　Mizuho and Marion listened to what Yuto was saying.
　And they were not surprised about this. That's because both Mizuho and Marion felt it somehow. Yuto's knowledge of extras and abilities and the way he fought them was too sophisticated to be called a natural gifted person.
　And the two of them also have a dim sense that it must have been obtained from actual fighting.
　It was indeed hard to imagine where they had gained that much experience, though.
　Yuto told Mizuho and Marion as much as he could tell them.

　That he has both spiritual and magical power within him.
　Also, only the magic power is sealed.
　This is probably why the spiritual power has become a peculiar constitution that just leaks out.
　Yuto also told her that he believed in these two girls who had the same ability, and that he was a Sendo user......a Daoist, and that he had learned to use his spiritual and magical power at the same time based on the hint of Senki's characteristics that were not repulsive to his spiritual and magical power.
　Including the repercussions of being forgotten by others with this simultaneous exercise of spiritual and magical power.
　Although he couldn't help but say about the Doudou family's management properties, the other side of the Demonry Grotto, and the demon world, he told them what he could.
　Zuiho and Marion were astonished and had serious expressions when they heard what Yuejin said.

''Just a little bit more, your story.......everything isn't quite right, I can't get the words out.......''

''This, this can happen........ And the Sacred Way........I've heard of it, but it really existed.......

'Well, well, pompous old men ... people, you'd better not see them for the rest of your life, wouldn't you?　No, really.

　Mizuho had something she really wanted to confirm with Yuto.



'What?　Umm, um....

'So ... so every time you've done that, people have forgotten you?　Just like in the rookie test....

　Yuto makes a serious face at Mizuho's words.

''Un........''

....
....

　Mizuho and Marion can't help but look at Yuto with concern.
　Why would this boy use that power at such a cost?
　Even during the last rookie test, there was nothing in it for Yuto to gain. In fact, they had been forgotten even by themselves, whose lives were directly saved.
　What is it that makes Yuuto go that far.......what is it that drives Yuuto?
　But when Mizuho and Marion think about Yuto's thoughts and actions in this request, and Yuto during the rookie exam that they remembered... they are beginning to understand something about this boy's character and s*xuality.
　Mizuho and Marion look at Yuto with a gaze that includes worry and a hint of anxiety.
　The current Mizuho and Marion can see it.
　

''Yuto-san........''

Yeah?　What?　Mr. Marion.

'Do you always forget everyone when you use that power?　Well ... are there any exceptions?

　Marion is quiet, but she asks as she closes in on Yuto.
　When Yuto was told that by Marion, he thought of the people who weren't replaced in his mind.........also the people who are currently not replaced.

'Exceptions........yes, apart from my relatives, there were a few people who remembered me.......'

　Hearing that, Mizuho and Marion's expressions become heartily cheerful.

''And........I wonder if there are two people who have never forgotten me.......''

'What?　What's that?　What kind of people are they?

'Well one of them is gone...'

......

　Mizuho and Marion keep their mouths shut. Because for a moment the eyes of Yuto as he said it seemed to stare into the distance. Maybe it was my imagination... but for a moment, I felt uneasy, as if Yuto's mind did not exist here.
　And Mizuho and Marion had an idea of who that person was. That was what the vampire who had acquired the Satori ability said during the rookie exam.....................the beloved one that Yuto had lost.
　The two of them are convinced that it's probably that person.
　After a few moments of silence, Mizuho is curious about the other person's presence.

''Yuto, who's the other one?　Can you imagine your character and your home as a relative or something?

Yeah?　No, the other one is a classmate of mine. We go to the same school.

What?
The classmate?

　At the same time as Mizuho and Marion got a glimpse of a daily life that they couldn't imagine from Yuto, it occurred to them simultaneously, without missing a beat, that they had to check with these two girls.

''Is that a girl?''
Is she a woman?

　For some reason, the expressions seemed to disappear from Mizuho and Marion, and Yuto felt his back go cold. It's as if their eyes are disappearing in the shadows.......

''Huh?　Oh, yeah ... but ... but ... oh, we've known each other for a long time, because we're like childhood friends!　That's how he remembered it, I think.

　Suddenly, spiritual power blows up from Mizuho and Marion.

''Hee!''

Well, we've known each other since childhood...
Hmmm........my childhood friend.

　Yujin's body, which had never been cowed by any battlefield, naturally began to tremble as the dark aura (spiritual power) that had blown up from the two of them burst out of him.

''Yuto!''
Eugene!

Hahi!

When you've finished, you'll give us your contact information and we'll get back to you. And you'll also provide us with detailed information about the school etc........ Hmmm....

'What?　Why?　That would give you contact information, but even the school?

''Huh........Masato?　...is there any inconvenience?

No!　No, sir!　I'll report back to you in detail with a report after this request is completed!

　Lately, Marion's usually gentle smile hasn't soothed me at all.

(Occasionally though I'm afraid of these two!)

　Yuto clings to the couch, shivering and shaking.
　Yuto managed to calm himself down and had something he really wanted to say to Mizuho and Marion, so he summoned up the courage to call out to the two men who were still laughing with their arms crossed and eyes closed.

''Mizuho-san, Marion-san........''

　After being spoken to by Yuto with a serious face, Mizuho and Marion turned to Yuto.

''I don't know what to say but I'll tell you two my honest feelings.

What?
What's that?

　Mizuho and Marion look a little nervous.

'Thank you for remembering me.....

'Oh....'
....

Mizuho-san and Marion-san are the first to remember me in this way.

　Mizuho and Marion look at the bowed Yuto with mixed feelings.
　They strongly believe that they didn't do anything to be thanked, but considering the situation surrounding this Yuto, they think that this is Yuto's true feelings.
　
　And I don't understand what Yuto is saying.
　What do you mean by this way?

There are people who have forgotten me and remembered me in the past. ─ There are people who have forgotten me and remembered me in the past, but they all remembered me by associating themselves with people who did not forget me, and that was very gratifying for me, of course. Of course, for me, I'm very grateful for that as well...

　Yuto looked at Mizuho and Marion in turn.

'But without doing so, and from myself... the two of them were the first to remember me spontaneously like Mizuho and Marion... they were the first to do so. That's why I got courage from both of them today!　I don't need anyone to help me connect with people!　I'm going to work harder, so that people won't forget me!

　Mizuho and Marion stared at that serious gaze of Yuto for a while....and they laughed.

''Silly.........Yuto.''
You're an idiot, Eugene.

What?

''Yuto, I'm not very good with people either, so I can't say anything great about it, but...''

'Yuto-san, I'm one of those people who are shy, but...'

　Mizuho and Marion smiled gently. Yuto's heartbeat jumped at this smile from the two of them, causing his cheeks to unconsciously blush.

''It's only natural, you know?　Yuto.

Even I know that's a given, as you say, Yuto-san.

　Yuto looks at Mizuho and Marion in amazement.

''So, you'll stay put. I told you earlier, didn't I?　We're allowed to do what we want to do, Yuto. That's what you've been doing so far, and that's what you've made us think.

''That's right. You should have more confidence, Yuto-san. It happens that everyone forgets someone they have met before. Yuto-san's is just a bit extreme in that regard. The reason we remember the person from the moment we meet them or connect with them immediately is because of the connection we have with them. We had a connection with Yuto-san, I'm sure. In the same way that other ordinary people connect with each other when they meet someone new.... So it's fine for you to remain the same, Yuto-san.

　At Mizuho and Marion's words, Yuto looked at them as if he was huffing and puffing.
　Right now, the smile of Lieselotte who met in the demon world in front of Yuto......overlaps with them.
　However, Yuto shook his head violently.

(Mizuho-san and Marion-san are Mizuho-san and Marion-san. They are different from Lieselotte. These two are me and my friends who have connected with each other...........yes, that is irreplaceable)

Totally.........don't cry like this, Yuto.

'What?　Huh?　No, no!　This is an eye....

''Fufufu, yes, Yuto-san. Please take the dust out of your eyes with this.

　Mizuho said in a dumbfounded way, and Marion laughed and offered her handkerchief to Yuto.

　And although the two of them probably still had some questions they wanted to ask about what Yuto had to say, they didn't ask more than that.
　They were only told to come to Mizuho and Marion's room once they had an answer as to what they were going to do.
　As soon as the SS-ranked abilities to be replaced arrived, the mission of Yuto and the others would end.
　But until then, Yuto and the others have a reason to stay here.
　In the meantime, make a decision, Mizuho told Yuto.
　The expression on Mizuho's face was one that seemed to see through something, but....
