Early, Next Morning
This should be enough..."
Stretching my back, I clapped my hands in satisfaction.
Right now my bed was filled with things that I prepared for my two-week long trip back home. From clothes to books, I decided to bring them all. Since the trip was going to be that long, I decided to just bring whatever I could bring.
With dimensional spaces being a thing, I didn't need to worry about carrying large bags with me.
-Vuam!
Tapping on my bracelet once, everything that was on my bed disappeared.
"I guess it's about time I head out."
-Click!
I stepped out of my room and locked the door. The sun is about rose from horizon and I'm feeling pretty nice today.
"It's nice day." I mutter to myself as I gazed at mrning sky.
-Click!
A door next to mine opend and a very beautiful girl step out of her room.
"Lucas?"
"Evelyn."
We sad both of our name at the same time.
We exchanged a brief, acknowledging smile. Evelyn, with her auburn hair catching the morning light, carried an air of elegance that seemed to blend effortlessly with the tranquility of the morning.
"Ready for going back to your home?" she inquired, her eyes reflecting a mix of determination and curiosity.
I nodded, pointing toward my smart bracelet. "Packed and prepared. How about you?"
Evelyn held up a compact staff, a magical focus she often used in battles. "All set. The journey back home is always a welcome change."
"Sounds like a plan," I replied and gusture Evelyn to follow me, she gave me confused expression but decided to follow me.
As we walked down the hallway towards the lift, I couldn't Shake the weird feeling I got on my chest.
It's like every time I got near I got this werid feelin and I loose my compouser and started to do weird things.
Just how much influence did the previous Lucas have over me?
As I thought about it previous Lucas, another question emerged in my mind.
What happened to the original Lucas?
After thinking long and hard about it, my face became grim.
My current hypothesis was that after receiving his rank potential grading, he fell into a deep depression and chose to end his life, allowing me to take over.
...But this was just a hypothesis I came up.
Perhaps after going back home and assessing the situation more carefully, I could find more about the previous Lucas
Also today I have something to told Evelyn, I thought about it long and decided to tell her that half of my memories are gone that's why I couldn't recognise her at start Academy and some other things.
-Ding!
I'm taking about the man I saw in Lucas memories,his face blue but I'm pretty sure that he is the one who did all of this.
I gave Evelyn long look and started to talk
Evelyn listened attentively as I shared my thoughts on the possibility of my memories being deliberately tampered with. Her expression shifted from concern to a contemplative frown.
"That's quite a theory," she remarked, her auburn hair catching the sunlight filtering through the inn's windows. "But why would someone do that to you?"
"I don't have all the answers," I admitted, feeling a twinge of frustration at the gaps in my understanding. "But I saw a man in my memories. I have a feeling he might be connected to all of this."
Evelyn's eyes narrowed, her curiosity piqued. "A man? Is this the one behind all of this?
"Exactly," I agreed. "I have this gut feeling that he's involved in erasing or altering my memories. I just need to find out who he is and why he did it."
Evelyn nodded, her gaze thoughtful. "Maybe there are others who know about this man or can provide more information."
I nodded my head as I listened to her.
"So would you please let me go?" She asked me and I remember that I was still holding her.
I instantly let her go and took step back in emberecment .
"Khukh... Sorry about that."
"N-No It's F-Fine."
Man this is killing me from inside, this is the first time in my entire life that I felt so embarras by my own action.
"L-Lets get g-going." Evelyn sutterd as she started to walk forward in fast pace.
"You should go ahead, I have to meet someone." I called her, Evelyn turned her head back and look toward me.
"I can wait, you know.
"No, I think it's going to take some time. So you should go ahead."
She looks towards me few seconds and hesetiat before nodding her head. "Okay." Saying that she left in hurry.
She is also emberes when I suddenly hold her that's why she is walking fast so I could not tease her.
"How Cute."
"Indeed she is cute, you got yourself nice girl."
"What the fuck!" I cursed and jumped back as I felt someone behind.
Turniymy head back I look at the culprit, and instantly I come down.
Why?
"Yo! Lucas."
Because the culprit was Yato, My Master.
"Master why are you here, I was coming."
"Why? Because my cute little disciple was late, so I thought I could and get you but when I came here you were busy with your girl."
I rolled my eyes at Yato's teasing remark. "It's not what it looks like, Master. We were just having a conversation."
"Sure, sure," Yato chuckled, his eyes gleaming with mischief. "Anyway, I heard you're heading back home. Thought I'd come and see you off."
I nodded in appreciation, grateful for Yato's unexpected presence. "Thanks, Master.
