Subaru:  "Does this mean I’ve completely run out of options…?”

Shop Owner:  "However, the most recent commotion wasn’t the usual fare. Someone was using magic and shot off two or three blasts of it. Just look." The shop owner leaned forward and pointed to a stall about four spaces to the left.

Subaru:  Subaru followed with his gaze. "Oh, wow.”

Shop Owner:  "There were some icicle-shaped things that were used like arrows, and one of them stuck inside that wall. It disappeared immediately afterward, though.”

Subaru:  Each of the four holes was a little bigger than a quarter. Since they were able to make a hole like that in a stone wall, Subaru shivered to think what would happen if they hit a person. “This magic looks like it’s on a different scale from the first time I saw it… I wonder if Not-Satella’s a little more upset than usual this time…” Subaru felt a cold sweat form on his brow. “But if that’s the case then I was too late this time as well.”

Subaru:  "I need to try to meet up with Felt. If possible, I need to try to catch her before she enters the loot cellar, and then exchange my cell phone for the badge, but…” Subaru wanted to avoid the loot cellar as much as he could. “If I go too late, then it’ll be what happened the first time all over again. However, if I go and meet up with Rom and wait for Felt, then I’ll end up repeating what happened the second time around…” What was most important was Felt’s location. Right now, Felt was probably being chased around the capital by Not-Satella. If he could, Subaru wanted to meet up with her before she arrived at the loot cellar.

Subaru:  “Maybe I could just rely on my Return by Death and use this time just to gather information…?” While that seemed like a viable option, Subaru shook his head and quickly rejected that plan. This was something he realized after experiencing death three times, but every time it was incredibly painful. He didn’t want to experience something like that ever again. Subaru was anxious about relying on his Return by Death power when he didn’t know how or why it worked.
