I have strange dreams, or like blurry videos in my mind about somewhere, someone. And someone, no, a creature is calling my name ...
-The clip. What is it?
-Hey, hey man, hey ...
-Come on, don't slap people like that, what if you get hurt?
-Big, if only that wounded, only weak things like her.
-What!? This idiot, dare to tell her you're weak !?
-Hey, wait ... Aaaaaaa !!
Trying to open my tightly closed fish sauce, I was startled to see a group of people in front. Two men and two women, the sight of the dark green haired girl pinching the blond male ear made me want to laugh, but I still had to hold back because of my indeterminate situation. That dark green haired girl
wearing a plain gray full-body dress, the upper body had a light chest plate and she wore a brown jacket a little longer than the skirt made of leather. The boy in armor was almost completely covered in civilian clothes like his medieval style.
Medieval? I wonder why I thought that while I didn't even understand what it meant.
-Who are you?
Walking towards me was the other boy in the group, who had silver hair and eyes filled with killing intent that made me feel scared, but tried to remain calm and answered him with a shake of his head. Perhaps not very reasonable, but I do not know how to answer anyway.
-What do you mean? Don't tell me you don't even know who you are?
-Yes ...
I have a feeling that if I didn't answer completely, there was no way he would leave me alone.
-... I ... can only remember my name.
-Hum? So your name is?
-Is ... Harukiri Kazuto.
-Where are you from?
I just shook my head.
-Why are you here.
I still shook my head.
And just like that, I was like a prisoner under strict interrogation and could only answer by nodding and shaking my head. Sometimes he asked me a few questions but I didn't know how to say it properly so I was very embarrassed at the time, but he also forgave me when I couldn't answer.
-Come on Rin, you scare people.
The blonde boy came running and patted the other's shoulder, Rin guessed it, different from the other one. The golden boy seems to be a much more easygoing and carefree person than his friend.
-So ... you don't remember anything ... that means you have memory loss?
-That's right ...
-Do you remember anything besides your name?
At first I remembered that man who chose me as a "hero", but as soon as I wanted to tell him about him my throat stiffened, I couldn't say a single word and at the end The same can only be considered a secret.
-I'm 16 years old.
I knew I was just talking about my age, but I got the feeling I was right.
-We are also 16 years old, so do you want to come with us? We were about to stop by Ratd village recently.
-Hi Kaito, who gave you the right to make such a decision?
-Come on, it's almost dark, who carelessly leaves others in the middle of this jungle? And what if he gets attacked by monsters in the night?
-Well! It's up to you.
-Hi!
Kaito turned his face to me and brought his hand forward.
-I'm Kanzaki Kaito, nice to meet you.
-Me too.
It was getting dark, and I sat in the old horse-drawn carriage hired by this group of people my age. And of course, on the way, I did not forget the work that I considered to be the most important at the time, collecting information. And Kaito didn't hesitate to answer my questions, so to speak, no matter how stupid.
As far as I know, the world is full of interesting as well as dangerous. Magic, in other words, is the "symbol" of this world. It is the flow of energy that flows through all things and gives life to this world. And even though the creature has died, the consciousness still exists in the "nothingness" created by magic. The magic is divided into seven main systems: lightning, wind, water, fire, earth, optical and dark, the remaining one is both common and rare. In addition, humans also use magic to perform "spells", which have many uses. And every magic system has its own system, very few people in this world have two. On average one million people are like that. So those people are taken seriously or, on the contrary, discriminated against.
Kaito also mentioned that his group are on vacation so they hunt monsters, which explains a lot about their weapons and armors. Back to the dangers of this world, monsters, demons, black magicians and maya. Monsters, as their name suggests, are animals that always crave human flesh, some species have intelligence like humans, and if they have strong magic power like humans, they will be called demons.
According to Kaito's account, since a long time ago, the maya was a special person, half-human and half-blood. He dreamed of being a suzerain for a long time in the world, so he gathered an army of monsters, demons and his worshipers, or black magicians, to destroy and take over the kingdoms of the world. He might have done it if he didn't show up, the hero of humanity, Ezio. He sacrificed himself to defeat the demon king a hundred years ago, which led to the succession of battles with monsters and demons and eventually retreated. And his partner, the holy-sword Excalibur, has mysteriously disappeared. After all, the world has stabilized thanks to him now.
-Oh no! It was already dark.
It was Mika, she and Kaito had been best friends since childhood. Kaito warned me not to upset Mika because she was often angry and hit others. He said that to me, but he always tried to make fun of Mika.
-Oh, so you're afraid of the Wooberbats?
-Huh! Who is afraid of floods. It's just that ... if they attack, there's a good chance that the car will be damaged and we have to pay an extra rent for the car.
-Oh, I know you're scared of having them bite your clothes like the last time. Well ... anyway, that's good, maybe I could see it ... Pain!
-The name of this pervert!
After finishing his sentence, Mika knocked him on the head with his cane. Seeing that, Yumi immediately went to the drawer, even though it was called a compartment but because of her shy personality when there were strangers in front of her, she had only hesitated to say one or two sentences and the stranger here was me. Thinking about my presence making it difficult for Yumi, I sighed. She had smooth, long blue hair, eyes of the same color that made people look at them, and it felt like they were watching the stars in the night sky. Her outfit is no different from Mika's, except for her black dress with the motifs of her flying roses that remind me of this as a young lady. Anyway, according to Kaito, Rin and Yumi are from a prestigious family so that's not strange.
-They're here.
As soon as Rin said that, I immediately turned my head, the shimmering lights of the small streets with lots of people coming and going made me unable to take my eyes off.
Probably because I got used to the dark.
