Subaru:  “I was thoroughly convinced you would find my being a spirit user to be distasteful.”

Julius:  “Even I can account for time, place, circumstances, and person once in a while. There are times when I haven’t, though.”

Subaru:  Subaru, eyes still averted, made a pained smile as he motioned toward Julius’s right arm.

Julius:  There emerged the minor spirits that Subaru had seen during Ram’s attack, seemingly orbiting the arm. The flickering spirits numbered six in total, each one lovingly nestling close to Julius’s arm. However beautiful and fickle they looked, they were beings imbued with supernatural power. “As you have surmised, these girls are spirits—known as common spirits—that I have formed a pact with. They are buds yet to bloom into distinct categories of spirits. I borrow their strength through my pledge to become a knight worthy of the beautiful flowers they shall become.”

Subaru:  “So you had the red one keep an eye on me?” One of the minor spirits resting on Julius’s palm was the red one that had leaped out of Subaru’s hair during the illusion. When he thought back, it was that same scarlet minor spirit that had appeared when he had been captured by the crazed woman. All of it was Julius’s doing. Twice, Subaru had been saved by him in his time of need.

Julius:  “It is hurtful to hear you call it keeping an eye on you. She was protecting you from the shadows.”

Subaru:  “…Incidentally, what was that thing you used when you were breaking the illusion?”

Julius:  Julius had used some kind of magic to share the method of breaking the illusion with every member of the group. As a result, Subaru’s brain had been put through the wringer from the multiple thoughts passing through it. “That was magic cast through borrowing the power of In and Nes, combining Dark with Light…that is Nekt, an advanced magic spell. It links the Gates of all human beings within range, enabling thoughts to pass between them. Though it seems to have been rather too effective upon you.”

Subaru:  “Yeah. I thought I wasn’t gonna be me anymore.”

Julius:  “As a matter of fact, there is no question it is a difficult spell to employ. After all, it is a ritual to thin the boundaries between you and the minds of others. If deepened to excess, not only thoughts but also the five senses can be commingled. I’m sure you experienced the fear of being consumed by others to a fair extent?”
