When the vampire brothers and sisters disappeared with their mother.

"No, sui. What were you talking to that guy about?

Speaking to the total, Sui got stuck in words.

It's easy to explain that. But I want to avoid the whole thing knowing that.

It was naturally thought by Sui that it would be for the total good.

"Nothing. I'm sorry about earlier, I guess"

"... hmm?

The total didn't come after it.

But Sui didn't think the deception had come through.

Perhaps he just stopped pursuing me, perceiving that he wanted to hide something.

(Really, 'guessing' is good in places like that)

Sui remembered what Rasquil told him.

Earlier, resistance to total 'fascination'.

That, from Rasquil, is still impossible.

(With the power of will, there's no way I can do something about magic. then there is only one possible possibility)

Rasquil's conclusions were absurd but perfectly relevant to the overall situation.

Why 'fascination' should never work. It's

(The part about the 'enchantment' of the total mind. that something like 'romantic emotion' is' missing 'for some reason)

So overall, 'fascination' didn't work.

Naturally, there are no 'elements' to be 'fascinated' by originally.

Such a state is not normally possible.

Experience enough to come alive normally and lack emotion, first of all.

Even if there's always been one, then other emotions can't be working properly.

So what does it mean?

(... there was a magical 'lack of emotion' due to a subpoena accident)

That was the natural outcome that could be considered.

Originally, the total did not come to this world normally. Some kind of accident got me lost in this world.

It's weirder that we haven't had any problems.

(Then the total abnormal attitude can also be explained)

Sui recalls his total previous attitude.

The idea of falling in love with yourself is unlikely.

A bluntness off track to jealousy or favor that anyone would notice.

Previously, when I tried to step in a little, it was like holding my head down.

Are they all distorting information so that the total mind protects the missing parts?

I wonder if the circuit of thought that should be connected there is being forcefully connected to make up for that part.

For that too may eventually come the limits.

Any attempt to substitute something that is not originally there will eventually come to a limit.

When that happens, what happens to the total mind?

(… do not let. I would never let that happen)

Suey remembered only one more piece of advice from Rasquil.

Says she found out about this store because she was taught it by The White Haired Woman.

She heard about the siblings, about the 'cocktail', apparently from the woman.

Is it so strange to think that the woman has anything to do with the total?

(If I catch "The White Haired Woman," I also feel I know about the total summons. And the total 'lack of emotion' may also be able to do something about it)

Sui looked at the total face with determination in his chest.

For me, I saw the face of someone I cared about, who was no longer irreplaceable.

You noticed that Sui stared, and the total smiled graciously.

"What's wrong, Sue? You'll be lit up when you see it with those hot eyes."

"... sorry, just a little frustrated"

"... why?

How dare you say something you don't even have in mind?

Sui thought only a little, after spitting it out in her chest.

I thought about what I was trying not to think about.

(What if the means to cure the total mind was to 'go back to the original world'? Then... I...)

Sui thought that far and shook his head as a boom.

Not now, not there.

First, we have to do what we can.

Sui got in the mood and wrapped his arms around him, first deciding to clean up the wash accumulated in the flush.

Because while you're at it, you can at least stand next to the total.
