"This is you, isn't it, my son?" Claude walked closer to his mother and kneeled down next to her, nodding his head as he spoke, "Yes, it is mother. That is indeed Sakuto, your son." Claude paused for a second, before contemplating on his words, and continued, "After I reincarnated, I had thought that I had left behind my previous life. And yet, I realised that I have always acted as though I was an outsider to this world, still treating it as though it was my second life, instead of living it like it's my first! Perhaps I thought that it was me being careful, but I've now realized that deep down, I've always been Sakuto first, and Claude second."
