Bab 5: Chapter 4 - Coping with Past and Present Problems
After a long time Kaito stopped bothering Felt, the reason is very simple. It's just that if he kept stretching her cheeks he knew that maybe later Felt wouldn't be able to feel her face at all.
Of course there's also the point that Kaito doesn't want to gain negative points with Felt, although that's hard to tell right now from Felt's resentful look while Emilia is relieving his pain with healing magic.
Ignoring for the moment the complaints of the girl, Kaito turned his gaze to Subaru who, upon feeling his gaze, became tense as a statue, while watching Subaru, a somewhat complicated look crossed Kaito's eyes.
The reason is that after observing Subaru, he remembered that this boy had to endure many situations that are enough to make any other person lose their minds, of course, although Subaru almost went crazy in the end, he overcame that difficulty and moved on.
But Kaito not only sees him with eyes of pity but also admiration, since a young man survived in a dangerous world only trusting in death, his intelligence and a little luck. And of course, even without any power, he kept going.
While looking at Subaru, he was already nervous by Kaito's questioning look, of course he noticed this so Kaito stopped looking at him that way and spoke after a while.
"Hey boy thanks for being brave a while ago and covering for Emilia, I appreciate it." Kaito spoke in a gentle tone to Subaru.
"E-eh?, n-you don't have to thank me for anything I just offered to help her so I did." Subaru answered somewhat nervously even if Kaito spoke to him calmly.
"But still for risking your life for Emilia I need to reward you in some way, so tell me, what do you want?" Stunned by Kaito's words for a moment, Subaru didn't know what to answer.
But then he composed himself since he thought it was not polite to remain silent several times in a row, so meditating on the matter after a while he gave an answer.
"So Mr. Kaito, it's my first time in the city so I don't have a place to live...."
"So, you're looking for a place to stay, huh?"
"Yes effectively". In an embarrassed tone Subaru spoke to Kaito even though Kaito told him to ask for what he will need.
Although he knows that his request seems strange but he has no choice since what he says is completely true, he has just arrived in this unknown world and he has nowhere to go, so the only thing left for him is to wait for the young man in front of him to accept. Your request.
"If it's just lodging, there's no problem, right Emilia?" Dropping his words, Kaito turned to see Emilia who was approaching with Felt.
Listening to Kaito's words for a while, Emilia pondered but then only nodded in confirmation to Kaito and Subaru. After Emilia's affirmation with a slight movement, Kaito turned to look at Subaru again, but seeing his expression, Kaito almost hit him on the spot. Since on Subaru's face he just looked like a typical high school student looking at a beautiful young woman.
Obviously Kaito knows that Subaru is just a young man, but seeing his expression reminded him of an unpleasant character. Hyoudou Issei, a character that in Kaito's opinion is extremely disgusting, even if in the future he goes to his world when he arrives, the first thing he will do is take away his Longinus so that it does not have an intersection with the story.
Well, of course, only because of the feeling of fanaticism that he can feel from Subaru, Kaito was able to remember Issei. And at this point the question can be asked of what if Kaito feels guilty for taking Emilia away from Subaru. But the answer is no.
Why should he feel guilty in the first place? Now he has known Emilia for a long time and their relationship has already advanced too much unlike Subaru, even Emilia who sometimes ignores these things knows perfectly well what she feels, the question of not rising in rank their relationship is that Kaito waswaiting to return her memories to Emilia.
After that, he will be able to move forward in his relationship with Emilia, since at that moment he will have more confidence and less torment for past things.
While Subaru was looking at Emilia, suddenly a chill ran down his spine causing him to wake up from his fantasy, looking around, he noticed that Kaito, who was seeing him a moment ago in a friendly way, now has a death look, as if warning him that if he kept seeing EmiliaI could die.
"So you heard, by the way, after all this time I don't know your name?"
"Oh...sorry for not introducing myself either, my name is Subaru Natsuki, my pleasure." Although nervous by Kaito's look, Subaru answered him in the same way.
"It's also a pleasure... by the way, brat, I don't know your name either." After hearing Subaru's response with a nod, Kaito answered him and then looked away from him to Felt.
"Hmph, who are you calling brat, my name is Felt!?" Felt couldn't help but clench his fists and look at Kaito fiercely.
"Oh Felt, nice to meet you." Of course Kaito didn't care about Felt's actions instead she was amused by the actions she was doing.
It is evident that Felt noticed Kaito's undisguised mockery, with it filling his heart Felt couldn't help but hit Kaito to teach him a lesson, but he knows perfectly well that it won't work so he just coldly snorted and deflected his Kaito's gaze.
While he was amused by Felt's attitude, Kaito suddenly looked in a direction and, fixing his gaze, he realized that a person was coming here. And that person was Reinhard Van Astrea the first knight of the realm and supposedly the strongest in the world of Re:Zero.
Well, that is relative to the beings of this world, for him, Reinhard is only a little strong, at least it helps him to stretch his muscles or, well, not even that. While Reinhard was meditating he had already arrived in front of them and with a respectful attitude he spoke.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Emilia." Bowing slightly, Reinhart greeted Emilia.
"It's also a pleasure, Reinhard." With a nod accompanied with words, Emilia also greeted Reinhart.
When Reinhart received Emilia's greeting, he also nodded but in the middle of his nod he realized Kaito's presence, so the next moment he spoke to him.
"Oh, you're here too, Kaito."
"Hahaha, how long Reinhard, tell me what brings you to the slums?" With a smile of not seeing his friends for a long time, Kaito approached Reinhard and greeted him.
"Well I felt magical fluctuations growing so I rushed here, so can you tell me what happened?" Saying the words Reinhard looked around seeing the traces of ice magic and the icy atmosphere that was still on the site.
"Well, you'll see...". After hearing Reinhard's question, not wanting to hide anything, Kaito spoke about everything that happened before.
He has no problem doing it since Reinhard is a good friend of his, he has been since he became a Knight of the Kingdom and their relationship is very good.
"Hmm, so many things happened, by the way Kaito, where is that woman?" Reinhart couldn't help but ask this question since Kaito didn't mention what happened to Elsa.
"Well just take a look at the center of the battlefield, just by seeing its state you will understand." Saying only these words to Reinhart, Kaito pointed behind him.
After listening to Kaito's words with curiosity, Reinhard approached the icy battlefield. Taking a look, he found the scene of Elsa dead on the ground, seeing this Reinhard was not very surprised since he is aware of Kaito's strength.
Looking at Elsa for a moment, a doubt flashed in Reinhard's head, the reason was Elsa's terrified expression when she died, as well as the bloody hole in her chest.
But all this did not surprise him much, he knows that Kaito is very concerned about Emilia since it shows in his eyes and other actions he does when he shows up with her to the meetings of the Kingdom. Also with the things that Kaito told him that happened, Reinhard doesn't doubt that Kaito was upset at that moment.
Seeing Elsa's body with pity one last time, Reinhard left the place, after leaving, he looked at Kaito who was smiling when talking to Emilia, seeing him like this, the corners of Reinhard's mouth twitched.
For who would think that a person's emotions change abruptly from feeling murdered to a quality smile. In short, Reinhard didn't think much about the matter, knowing how he was his friend.
As he walked towards Kaito out of the corner of his eye Reinhard saw Felt handing Emilia a badge, this didn't catch his attention as much as what happened when Felt held the badge. This one changed color which only means one thing, Felt meets the qualifications of being a candidate to be the new king of Lugunica.
Immediately Reinhard approached Felt without warning and with a quick movement he grabbed her wrist.
"Hey you have to come with me."
"Eh?... what are you saying that I go with you? Also, take your hand away, if you don't, I'll make brother Kaito take care of you, you stupid gentleman."
Kaito: "...".
Reinhardt: "...".
[Since when did I become the person who bullies others when they bully you?]. While she was thinking this, Kaito looked at Felt out of the corner of his eye, she instantly noticed Kaito's look and when she saw her eyes, she immediately shrank her neck like an ostrich.
However, after looking at Felt for a few moments, Kaito didn't do much more, he simply approached Reinhard and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Hey, calm down first, you must explain the reason why you want to take her with you, if you don't, things may get very complicated for you."Hearing Kaito's words, Reinhard released his hold, then looked at Felt with a guilty look written on his face but wasting no time Reinhard began to comment to Felt about everything to do with the Royal Candidacy.
Time passed until Reinhard finished talking about all the topics. Then a look of expectation appeared in Reinhard's eyes, waiting for Felt's answer, she only thought for a few seconds and then spoke to Reinhart.
"Well I'll accept your proposal, but if I don't like things then I'll leave it and you don't have the right to say anything."
Reinhard"...". A drop of sweat appeared on Reinhard's head after hearing Felt's words.
Until this moment, he understood the girl's rebellious attitude, so he didn't refute her, because if he does, I firmly believe that Felt will flatly refuse to go with him and then he won't be able to fulfill his mission.
Then after receiving Felt's answer Reinhard immediately nodded in confirmation. Not having anything to do anymore, Reinhard said goodbye to Kaito and the others, he slowly walked away with Felt and Ron until his figure disappeared from the sight of a normal person.
Looking at Reinhard's back for a while, a somewhat regretful look appeared on Kaito's face. Right now, he is thinking that if he had come to the world of Re Zero earlier, Reinhard's grandmother would still be alive.
Of course, he himself knows that he doesn't get anything out of it by complaining, that's the same reason why he is looking for more strength at every moment since he doesn't want to regret anything in the future, well, since Reinhard's grandmother is easy for Kaito to make I no longer controlled Pandora and make her return tolife.
But he is not in a hurry, since he is more interested in Pandora's attack and if he is there he will attack Emilia again and even if instead of attacking Priestella the Witch Cult will attack the Kingdom Capital directly. Although this thought sounds absurd, Kaito did not think so. Since the Witch Cult is full of pure psychopaths who don't mind dying and just like to make a ruckus all over the place.
Although of course this is not just a thought, but rather that Kaito was able to see these events with his Omnipotence ability, yes Omnipotence. He got this ability after the Origin Energy in his body was totally controlled, in short, with a simple thought he can know what happened, what happens and will happen.
For a reason she let Felt go with Reinhart since she knew that she wanted to be a candidate to change the way people like her are, in short, to improve their situation. Of course, her Omniscience goes beyond the Outerverse where she is, but she will think about that later.
Since while meditating on these matters, Kaito suddenly felt a touch on his left hand, coming back to reality, Kaito turned around to see Emilia holding his hand with concern.
"Is something wrong Emily?" Emilia didn't immediately answer Kaito's question, she just fell silent with a tangled expression on her face. Not wanting Emilia to be like that, Kaito slowly turned around and squeezed Emilia's hand, making her relax a bit.
"Hey Sebas, take him to where Ram is, we'll go in a moment." After Kaito's words fell from his shadow, a man with red hair came out, with a sharp face, black jacket, white blouse and black pants with shoes of the same color.
At the same moment that this man appeared, he knelt before Kaito in the form of respect, then he responded to him with a simple word.
"Understood".
Without contradicting Kaito's order, Sebas walked in one direction and Subaru who was looking at the couple woke up and immediately followed Sebas, when doing so he didn't know the reason but he felt as if someone had taken what belonged to him.
Of course, Kaito didn't know what Subaru's feeling was at this moment and he didn't care either, seeing the departure of the two, Kaito fixed his gaze on Emilia and spoke to her.
"Tell me what's wrong with you? Do you have something to ask me?" Looking at Kaito after hearing his words, Emilia knew that he was not going to give up until he said nothing to him, also now he realizes Kaito's concern and not wanting him to worry anymore at the end he spoke.
"Kaito... did you kill that woman?" When Emilia asked this question, Kaito was stunned, not because he was afraid that Emilia was afraid of him, but because she already knows for a long time, he knows that Kaito will do anything for her. He is not as ignorant as in the original story and knows these things.
But even knowing this, Emilia asked Kaito this question, which surprised him a bit, well, Kaito didn't daze on this topic for a long time either, and he gave an answer to Emilia.
"Yes, I do". Listening to Kaito's response, Emilia unconsciously increased her grip on her hand, noticing such a thing, Kaito looked at Emilia and at the moment what he wanted to talk about her to reassure her was interrupted by her words.
"You know... I don't want... I don't want you to become a person you're not because of me and even more so if something else happened to me, I don't know what person you would become because of me."Emilia looked at Kaito with a sad expression on her face, even her eyes began to crystallize and it seemed that she was going to cry at any moment.
This action caused Kaito to be moved. Actually, he doesn't mind doing these things for Emilia, besides, he already promised her that he would always take care of her, so how can he break her promise? What's more, even if he risks his life at some point to save Emilia, he won't hesitate.
While Emilia continued in her anguish and trying to say more words so that Kaito wouldn't do something like that again, she only felt a soft touch on her lips, after being stunned by the contact she realized the reason for the touch on her lips.
It was Kaito who for one reason or another thought that the most feasible thing at this moment is to kiss Emilia and confess, even if what he did seems sudden, he is not like those harem anime protagonists who keep quiet until further notice and do not express their feelings. feelings until the end thus choosing onlyone person causing others to suffer.
It's also another reason for him to defend Emilia the way he does, so Kaito simply kissed her and enjoyed Emilia's lips, which had a truly intoxicating softness and flavor.
For her part, Emilia at first was stunned by Kaito's actions, but then as time passed she let herself be carried away by Kaito and continued to kiss, of course Emilia was a bit clumsy since it is the first time she has done this kind of thing. That same awkwardness, innocence and tenderness is what captivated Kaito.
After Kaito separated his lips from Emilia's, a smile appeared on his face when he saw Emilia, who now had her face completely dyed with a red dye, that dye even reached her ears and this only increased when Emilia saw Emilia. Kaito look at her sweetly.
"Now you know why I'm doing this, don't you?" While Kaito spoke, she interlocked her hands and Emilia's, this one she simply remained silent because she did not want to interrupt Kaito, the other is that now she still felt ashamed for what happened before.
"I do it because I like you Emilia, so how can I allow the person I like to pass something on to her? I also promised you... I will be your shield and we will move forward together even if there are difficulties, we will overcome them together." Although Kaito feels that he is too cutesy right now, he knows that it is for the best. Well, he doesn't dislike the fact of saying such words either, since it is what he wants to convey.
And as Kaito expected, Emilia's reaction was as he imagined. She, who hasn't been in contact with these things so much, simply hugged Kaito and began to cry in her arms, Kaito simply hugged Emilia and didn't say much, he knew she needed to vent and he's not going to interrupt her.
After Emilia calms down, Kaito decided to fix Emilia's things once and for all.
"Hey Emilia, do you remember that I told you that I would help you recover your memory?"
"Hmm...if I still remember." While Emilia was still in Kaito's arms, she answered him in a low voice.
"Then I'll help you with that right now."
"Really?". With an excited tone, Emilia separated slightly from Kaito and looked into his eyes with obvious expectation on her face.
"Yeah sure, trust me." Seeing Emilia's enthusiasm and her beautiful face, Kaito couldn't help but place her hand on her cheek, at the same time he answered Emilia in affirmation.
Feeling Kaito's hand on her cheek, Emilia became nervous for a moment, but then she took courage from the bottom of her heart and kept her composure.
"So you hope after this you can clear things up with me and Ram." The moment Emilia spoke these words in a serious tone, Kaito was stunned.
He really didn't expect Emilia to tell him this, yes, and even with his Omnipotence he didn't know since it doesn't activate passively for this kind of thing. But getting back to the topic, after being stunned, Kaito recovered and after staring into Emilia's eyes, he sighed and then spoke in a sincere tone.
"Fine, I promise when you wake up I'll clear things up…I promise." Although he was somewhat afraid that after this things would go wrong, Kaito had to face it.
Meanwhile, Emilia returned to the attitude she had before, waiting for Kaito to act so that she would recover her memories. It should be noted that when she was waiting, Emilia hid her concern about Kaito's distracted state.
"Then close your eyes and remember... you must face your past to live your future, you must not stay in the past, you can cry, you can regret but do not blame yourself for anything. And remember you are not alone since I am here ". While putting aside the previous topic, Kaito spoke to Emilia in an extremely sincere tone which caused a smile as bright as the sun to appear on Emilia's face.
Observing Emilia and her smile, Kaito swore that he must protect her at any cost, even wanting to continue with this environment, Kaito did not delay and got down to work. Changing the position of the hand he had on Emilia's cheek, Kaito moved it to her forehead. Then a dim white light covered Emilia's head for a few seconds, after the light dissipated, Emilia's eyes widened abruptly but then gradually closed until she lost consciousness.
Grabbing Emilia so she wouldn't fall down, Kaito held her in his arms, looking at Emilia's sleeping face. Kaito sighed, then with two names called from within, two silhouettes came out of her shadow.
When the figure of the beings that came out of her shadow was revealed, it could be seen that these were a girl with golden eyes with a cold look, white hair that reached her waist and a black dress with some golden lines. . And next to her was a small white fox which had blue eyes which gave off amazing power.
When the two appeared upon seeing Kaito they immediately knelt down, on the girl's side she did this while the fox lowered his head.
"Sir, we answered your call, please give your order."
"Alice, Kurama, I need you to take care of Emilia on the way back, I need to do some things."
"As you ordered, we will fulfill your order and be worthy of your expectations." Without saying another word, Kaito handed over Emilia to Alice, who held Emilia with extreme care.
After taking one last look at Emilia who was asleep in Alice's arms, Kaito signaled for Alice to leave. Upon receiving Kaito's order, a magic circle appeared under Alice and Kurama, causing the figure of the two of them to disappear from the place together with Emilia the next second.
Seeing how the three of them disappear, Kaito focuses on the things he must do, first there is a matter with Elsa and the second matter is something related to the dimension beyond the Outerverse.
•••
Walking slowly Kaito entered the frozen battlefield and at first glance he saw Elsa's body, next to her a little girl with blue hair and black clothes was crying silently. And indeed the girl next to Elsa's body is Meili.
How she got here is easy to say, since she came with Elsa to the city and when she saw that she did not return, she went to Elsa's mission place. So when she arrived she found Elsa's body and since that moment Meili has been crying for Elsa's death.
Of course, Kaito only saw all this with indifference, it's not as if Meili was a virgin mary and she hasn't killed anyone, so it can be said that it is a punishment for her and Elsa's actions.
But even if he wanted to punish the two of us in some way, he doesn't plan on wasting time pointlessly, so Kaito approached Meili and then spoke to her in a flat tone.
"Hey, stop crying... even though she's dead, that doesn't mean she's completely dead, it's more like the person responsible for doing this can also bring her back to life."The moment she heard those words, Meili's brain stopped working for a few moments, so that later, with great anger, she will prepare to attack Kaito, who with a simple look pinned Meili in place.
"Don't be angry, she died wanting to fulfill a mission which was to hurt an important person for me so she deserves it. But anyway, she didn't come to tell you about my life, I just come to tell you to surrender to me and revive it."After saying these words, Kaito remained silent without intending to say anything else.
What he is doing now is a simple whim, for example reviving Elsa and transforming her into a true Vampire or rather into a true High Blood just like Luminous Valentine one of the Demon King of the World of Tensura and which by the way is also literally the perfection ofTension Vampires.
As for Meili, she wants her to become a true beast tamer, although of course that depends on Meili's answer, which if it is negative, Kaito can do nothing more than cut the roots since he does not like to leave them behind.
While Kaito was waiting for Meili's answer, he came to his senses and began to think, he knows perfectly well that if he rejects what Kaito said, she would die and not prevent Elsa from coming back to life, which she still does not believe, instead if she accepts to be the young man's subordinate in front of her maybeGet rid of the Assassins Guild. And after having this last thought Meili didn't hesitate anymore and looking at Kaito she opened her eyes again and again as a sign of acceptance.
As for talking, she can't do it, since Kaito not only immobilized her on the spot but also prohibited her from speaking so that she wouldn't be noisy. Seeing Meili's actions with a thought, Kaito unleashed his immobile state and at the same time revived Elsa who returned to her previous appearance as if nothing had happened to her, even her soul was intact or even better than before.
After being revived Elsa was in a state of daze due to the sudden return from the dead, she did not know what was happening, however her state of lethargy left when she felt like someone was hugging her. Annoyed because she didn't know who dared to do such a thing, Elsa prepared to attack the culprit, but her actions stopped when she saw a familiar girl.
"Meili, what are you doing in this place?"Confused by what was happening, she could only ask Meili, but she waited for a long time and received no answer, helplessly she could only see to her sides and when she was looking, she noticed a familiar figure, when doing so her heart could not help stop.
A few steps away from her, the young man who killed her in an unknown way and with unimaginable pain was there. Seeing him, Elsa immediately prepared herself to defend Meili, she doesn't care how she's still alive or what happened, right now is worried about Meili's safety over anystuff.
"Calm down I won't do anything, if I had the intention to do it I wouldn't do such a boring thing as revive you... Anyway, I will just say a few things now you work for me and you will follow my orders in the future, second, now you are no longer a cursed doll but a real Vampire, third, you no longer have to be afraid of the Guild leader simply if It bothers you I'll kill her and last don't think about betraying mesince we are already connected in a certain way, so if you have such a thought your soul will cease to exist from the fas of this world and that also includes Meili."
In a state of confusion Elsa stopped and listened to each of Kaito's words with disbelief and fear at the same time. While listening to Kaito's words, she was doubtful so she looked at Meili for confirmation and when she saw that she nodded her head, she had to believe Kaito's words.
Of course, he also made him believe Kaito's words, his body and current powers which were far from his commission before, he could even feel how Meili is stronger and also the connection he had with Kaito.
"Okay that's it, now you have a magic that can change your appearance... use it and go with it to the village near Roswaal Mathers' territory, then stand there like an ordinary person and wait for my order."Without having to say more, Kaito turned around and left the frozen field.
Seeing the young man's back, he didn't know why, but Elsa felt strange. After feeling like this, Elsa closed her eyes.
to feel his body and he realized that he could feel something that warned him of a danger, which is that if he thinks something bad about Kaito he could die.
Smiling ironically Elsa got up from the ground while carrying Meili in her arms, for a few moments Elsa stared in the direction that Kaito left and then sighed and turned her gaze to Meili in her arms.
"Meili, we are leaving now." Elsa spoke to Meili with a slightly impatient tone.
Not because of Meili but because of her current abilities which she must learn how to use as soon as possible, there is also the fact that she is mentally tired. And of course Meili noticed this right away so the next moment she responded to Elsa with a smile.
"Good, sister Elsa." As Meili's words fell, the two people disappeared from the place without a trace as if they had never been there in the first place.
•••
Meanwhile in the Space that contains the Multiverse of Re: Zero.
•••
After Kaito left where Elsa and Meili were, he was transported to the Space that contains the Multiverse of Re: Zero. Looking for a long time at the Universe where he is most of the time, a satisfied smile appeared on Kaito's face, he was really happy for the things that have happened to him in this World.
But his smile disappeared when he saw the other parallel Universes where the World was in chaos, of course even then he will not do anything since it has nothing to do with him, also long ago he made some beings in his Universe unique, that is, they do not have versions parallel.
Of course, the people he liked made the God of Blessings of the World of Re:Zero who is now kneeling behind him give them more blessings so they could live better. It should be noted that even if these Worlds have the Witch Cult almost incomplete, they can still cause chaos.
"Hope you guys take care of this Multiverse since I'll be gone for a few moments." As he continued to observe the Multiverse, Kaito spoke to the God of Blessings and the Observing God of the Multiverse of Re:Zero next to him.
"Understood". When answering Kaito, the two Gods were extremely respectful.
Even if before they were all-powerful Gods, but before Kaito they are not even the lerva by the side of the road. Kaito showed it more at this time as he simply nodded his back to the two Gods and didn't say another word to them.
As for the latter, they did not have any thoughts about it, they know perfectly well if they have a harmful thought towards Kaito or the people around them will be eliminated from existence as if they were ordinary people.
On Kaito's part he continued to observe the Multiverse regardless of the thoughts of the two beings behind him. Until after a while he turned his gaze away from this Multiverse to later set his sights on the sky to be more exact in the Dimension that goes beyond the Outerverse where he is and the other Outerverses around him.
This Dimension that caught the attention of a person like him is called the Origin Dimension and from which he feels as if something is happening there and this something can affect the Outerverse where he is. And of course, this is unacceptable for him since he will not allow someone to endanger the people he cares about... even if he is a God himself.
