Reincarnation Monarch

Lesson 293: Know Yourself

"... Huh. So I came all the way here."

Coppin heard from Gaius how he had been so far and nodded shaking his round body up and down just to say he was convinced.

"That's why I rush ahead, around here!

Gaius greeted him with his right hand up, and again he just walked out on his early feet, trying to walk away from the spot.

"Wait a minute."

But Coppin stopped him, and Gaius had no choice but to stop and look back.

"What? What can I do for you?

"I do. I didn't call you because I did."

"Oh, so what can I do for you? I can't believe humans go into hell as demons... even though you say you can't overlook them as cute demons?

Gaius deliberately re-said along the way that he didn't want to see the same eye again.

Coppin then nodded satisfactorily raising and lowering his round body.

"Looks like you finally learned, huh? Well, anyway, there's no rule that humans shouldn't come to hell, so, of course, I'm not gonna get rid of you, am I? Just..."

"... just?

"It fits that you can't overlook it."

"... what do you mean?

"If I go with you, it sounds interesting, so it means I'm going with you."

"... Huh?

"Huh? It's not. Mostly you came to hell with an idea, didn't you? Then you're not familiar with hell?

"No, that's not true. Probably... right. Well, I'm not gonna hide anything, so I'm actually a reincarnator."

"Reborn? Yeah, I've heard of it. He's been doing it all over again, hasn't he? So, what is it?

"I'm supposed to be in hell in my last life. It's fragmentary, but I still remember it."

"Heh - for example?

"Uh-huh, for example, I'm having trouble because I don't remember much when they ask me again..."

"Whatever you remember, just say it."

"Right... for example... Astalot or something..."

Then suddenly nervousness ran over Coppin, who had floated fluffy and easygoing until then.

"Ahhh - I'm surprised - you're not going to give me a name that's quite nasty... well fine, I mean, you've come to hell relying on the old known Astarot... so?

"No, I wasn't thinking that clearly. I'm pretty sure I know Astarot. But I honestly don't know what kind of relationship it is. That's why I came up with the right idea. I just... I don't know, but I feel like I can handle it."

"Huh. Do you feel like you were friends with Master Astarot or something?

"Uh-huh, what do you think? I can't tell you for sure because all this is really just an intuition... I don't get the image that I was hostile."

"Heh - I knew you were funny. All right, I figured I'd follow you!

"No, that's..."

"What? Mostly. Why are you here? You must be lost, right?

Gaius, accurately told by Coppin about the status quo, had his eyes swimming because of the upset, making his cheeks easy to understand and draw.
