Why Does Nobody Remember Me in This World?

Help... me.

She doesn't...

look human.

What race is she?

Who are... you?

Are you asking me who I am?

Rinne.

Rinne?

Is that your name?

Please save me.

She's not a demon, is she?

After I help you, you better not turn around and attack me.

That couldn't break it?

But I don't have any other weapons.

Right.

If it were that sword...

I remember it's called

Code Holder.

It is Sid's...

sword.

Hey, are you okay?

Are you finally awake?

Vanessa!

What?

Come out at once!

I haven't lost to you yet!

How dare you send such a weak, lowly demon to stop me?

Wait, I'm...

Hurry up and bring Vanessa here!

Code Holder

can cut through fate.

Cut through the unnecessary fate of death

from this world.

No way.

The magic

vanished.

What was that just now? How could a mere demon do that?

I'm a human, not a demon.

A human?

Take a closer look.

I don't have wings or a tail, do I?

I saved you because you asked me to.

Do you believe me now that I'm not hostile?

I'm sorry.

I have bad blood with demons, so I couldn't help it.

Bad blood with demons?

That means

you're not a demon, right?

Then what race are you?

Race doesn't matter.

I'm grateful that you saved me

and I'm willing to apologize for attacking you.

But...

Don't ask about my race anymore.

Please.

I understand.

Thank you for understanding, human.

The name's Kai.

What?

I'm not used to being called "human."

Kai.

Kai, right?

I'm Rinne.

Rinne, I want to ask you something.

Do you know where we are?

I have no idea too.

I only remember I was fighting Vanessa.

Before I knew it, I was locked up in here.

Vanessa.

As in The Dark Empress Vanessa?

The hero of the Demonic Race?

That's right.

You fought against a hero.

Rinne, are you super strong?

Of course.

Even if it's a horde of demons, I can crush them.

But,

Kai, you're quite strong too.

How did you block my magic?

It's probably

because of this sword...

Fate Special Being: Awakened.

The risk of interfering with the New World is "extreme."

Assign Rasterizer to commence the sealing process.

No way.

Let's run, Rinne!

No!

Rinne!

Fate Special Being: Captured.

Initiating Zero Code.

No!

No!

I...

No!

Are you kidding me?

This isn't the time for me to stand still!

Sid, lend me your sword!

The forbidden sword?

Why is it here?

Let's go.

Did we...

escape?

Rinne?

I was so scared.

I see.

It was...

It was really scary.

How warm.

Don't you have any companions?

I don't have any.

This is the first time anyone has treated me like this.

Be it the Wild God Race, Spirit Race, or Phantom Beast Race,

they all said I'm different from them.

The Demonic Race was the worst of them all.

They called me an ugly hybrid.

That's why Vanessa and I had a big fight.

I see.

I'm like you too.

Because no one remembers me.

It feels like I'm all alone in this world.

From the history I remember,

humans were the ones who won the Five Races Great War.

But in this world,

human cities are taken over by demons.

Wait a second, Kai.

Did you say demons took over human cities?

I've never heard of that.

What?

I remember

even before Vanessa and I fought,

the humans were gaining the upper hand in that battle.

Right.

That's why the demons were anxious,

saying that a human hero had appeared.

Have you heard about Sid?

Sid?

Sid...

Hey.

I don't really know.

I'm sorry.

But I'm glad.

What?

You and I

might be companions who remember the same history.

Companions?

What's the matter?

You're the first person

to say that to me.

It's also my first time saying that

to someone else.

Is that so?

Then, we're the same.

Thank goodness, we got out safely.

Kai, what are you going to do now?

Well, for now...

Rinne!

Is it because of the attack earlier?

Hey, Rinne.

I'm going back to the town first.

If you have nowhere to go, will you come along?

I hate human towns.

Why?

Because I don't trust anyone.

What about me?

You're different.

Because you saved me.

Then, trust me and come with me.

If you ever find me untrustworthy,

you can leave then.

Okay.

I'm exhausted.

I hate this!

I didn't know she'd panic in a car.

It's good that she can hide her wings.

-But she still garnered much attention. -Will they bite me suddenly?

Don't talk to me so casually!

And she tried to attack people with magic in town.

But to her, it's full of people of a different race.

It's only normal for her to be wary.

It turns out that non-humans can also sing.

I don't know when, but it returned to normal.

Code...

Bad news, Kai!

What should I do? The water won't stop.

Kai, what's wrong?

Stop asking. Wrap yourself in a towel first.

It's bad for my heart.

Kai, humans are so sneaky.

Sneaky?

How so?

How could they bathe in such warm water?

Until now,

I've been bathing cold in ponds and rivers.

On top of that,

the bed is so soft. It's not fair.

It's really soft and fluffy.

I see. I'm glad you like it.

But

there are only ruins left on the surface.

The cities really have been taken over by demons.
