The plain and unnoticed me is no more

Concentrate... I woke up with the sound of knocking on the door.

It's a familiar ceiling to get into sight. I was supposed to be in Artemis, and somehow I was put to bed in my own Sumitomo Pavilion.

When I wake up and lie still, I hear something on the table and someone approaches my bedroom.

The bedroom door remains open.

"Ah, good. You were awake."

"Taki...."

"I've been moving around early this morning, and it's about time you got hungry.

The sweet fragrance of butter and vanilla tickles my nose.

In response to that scent, my stomach rang... small.

Speaking of which, I was going back to the inn right away and went out without breakfast, so I haven't eaten anything yet today.

"My brother made a special offer to help Lana feel better. It's on the table, so eat early."

That's all Taki tried to say and leave the room.

I return to haha and to me to stop Taki.

"Wait, Taki! What time is it? We have to get started quickly...!

"Oh, don't panic. I'm almost done with lunch. Ah, yes. Your brother's going to let Lana rest today, but what do we do?

"It's up to you to do your job."

"Ha, I thought it was. Then I'll tell my brother that too."

Thank you, Taki.

As Taki left the room, Sin's voice was heard in the hallway.

Taki, how's he doing?

"It was okay. Niisan, if you're so worried, you should have gone to see for yourself."

"Because if you look at my face and fall again..."

The two voices gradually faded away and could not be heard afterwards.

"I have to tell you right now that I'm not upset because of Singh. Besides... it's okay to talk about the memories of the previous life."

Dressed in my usual clothes, I glanced at the cure placed on the table in the living room.

The bucket of French toast is sprinkled with powdered sugar, followed by vanilla ice cream topped with plenty of mixed berry sauce.

"This is similar to the café menu I went to several times in my previous life...."

I also thought about the fluffy pancakes he had made before, but sometimes I feel that he knows different world cuisine.

I didn't really care that I could make pancakes because I taught them the recipe orally.

But I only taught you how to make it, and I didn't tell you how to serve it.

And yet he reproduced a plate as I remember it.

And this French toast.

There is no food in this country similar to French toast.

It is possible that this is a direct Altemi dish from Shin's mother, but this way of serving warm dishes and cold ice cream on a plate is, in any case, a different world, and it was common when I was alive.

"... after all, is Sin's previous life Jen-san? But unlike me, he has no memory of his previous life. I wonder how to check it....."

Sit down and put the knife in the French toast made by Singh.

Then there was a crackling sound of candy and thin candy.

He hid in powdered sugar and didn't notice, but the surface was scorched with granulated sugar.

This is a brule-style French toast.

I was excited to carry it to a slice.

The bucket is filled with sweet egg juice, the outside is crisp and the inside has a mellow texture. The bitter taste of caramel adjusts the sweetness to salted plum.

Carry ice cream into your mouth. The vanilla ice cream goes well with the sweet and sour sauce.

And I chewed with plenty of berry sauce, vanilla ice cream and French toast to the good thing nobody saw.

"Hmm, happiness...!

Eating without worrying about meal manners is the first time I've been reborn.

Eating sweets makes you feel happy. This is an unspeakable moment of bliss.

But I can't take my time either.

We need to go to the kitchen and help the two of you.

"Nevertheless... I often thought I'd make something as handy as this in between. You must have been busy... Thin is too kind."

Until now, I felt guilty about getting Jen-san involved in the accident and my heart was about to crush, but thanks to Sin's care, I was very healed.

So I remembered the conversation I had with Singh when we went shopping for flowers.

When I complimented him on his care, he was supposed to be a lighter, and he said, "... not to anyone, but to me."

That was really exciting.

I'm sure you have a crush on me. But I don't know the extent of it. Do you just think it's a little good or do you want to be a lover?

"If you think about it, they might be alike. Jen-san had a shame, but nothing progressed...."

If that accident hadn't happened... I wonder if you could be more than friends if you were telling me how you feel...

It's useless to think about "what if", but I think about it.

But before we think about it, there's something we have to do first.

Thanks for saving Artemis, now I have to fulfill the goddess's wish.

When we're done with today's work, I'll talk to Singh.

By the time I finished my meal and went to the kitchen, lunchtime had begun. The shop is already fully booked and noisy due to the conversations of the customers.

I went to the side of Sin standing in the kitchen and spoke in a low voice.

"Sin, I'm sorry I worried. It's not your fault I got upset this morning. Besides, it was so delicious. Thank you."

Singh was agitated for a moment when he heard it, but immediately turned his eyes back to the ordered dishes.

"... are you feeling a little better?

"Yes, I'll do my best this afternoon if I can't help you with the groceries."

Don't be too hard on me.

I deliberately named the dish for its reaction, but maybe Singh knows what I said.

I want to talk to Singh and make sure. It's annoying that I can't talk even though I'm nearby, but I put up with it until closing time.

That night, as usual, I told Taki and Chiyo about what happened in Artemis this morning while eating in my room.

When I went there, there was no water left. The fact that the goddess appeared and fulfilled my wish to restore Artemis to its original form.

And in return for fulfilling that wish, I had to find the treasure of the goddess's daughter hidden somewhere in Artemis.

I also reunited with Leviant and listened to the aftermath of the purified fairy.

I tried to tell you why I lost my mind.

But suddenly Sin broke in.

Can I talk to you for a second?

"What is it, brother?

"... I need you to listen to me."

Sin listened anxiously to everyone, but tended to hesitate to open his mouth.

"Ah... you know, I actually have... memories of my previous life."

"Huh!? Since when!?

Taki gets stuck in thin.

"I told you I was exposed to the light of the goddess when I was begging."

"Yeah."

"I couldn't tell you what happened to me back then... but as soon as I was exposed to that light, my memories of my previous life came back to life."

I was surprised at Sin's confession, which I had not anticipated, and there was no word.

I thought you might have memories like me. But isn't it recent that he remembered his previous life? Even though we were together at that time, I didn't realize it at all because I was full of myself.

Chiyo also stared at Sin in surprise with her mouth wide open.

However, Taki was excited to ask questions one after another.

"Hey, what kind of memory? If Levi was right about Lana in her previous life, remember when she was in Artemis? What's your name? What was your brother's name in his last life?

"What happened suddenly, Taki?

"Just answer me!

"... my previous life's name was... Narukami Shinobu. He was a different person from this world."
