When I was led to the store, I was prompted to take a seat at the counter.
"This reminds me of a time when I had fun..."
Mr. Cologne is staring at me over the counter and crushing himself to miss the old days.
Then Mr. Cologne hacked,
"Ya, I ask you straight in... Ashkun do anything to get magic?
"Of course it is. If you can be a wizard, I'll do anything."
Not to surprise Mr. Cologne, I declared in a modest voice.
"Wow, okay..."
Mr. Cologne put the liquor bottle on the counter that was on the shelf.
There is about a litre of liquid like blue juice in the liquor bottle labeled with the roll.
When Mr. Cologne opened the lid of the lid of the liquor bottle, the room was filled with stench like raw garbage.
"Here, I'll get you a drink of this."
Mr Cologne pinches his nose and says:
"Okay."
"You don't hesitate at all...! If they smell this stench, they usually don't like it..."
What are you hesitating about?
If the magic might dwell, I'll make him drink what I think is a magma.
There's nothing like drinking stinking liquid.
"Drink this and you'll have magic, right?
I'll get confirmation just in case.
"Or there's no guarantee of a place to stay. It only increases the likelihood. Do you still drink?
"I'll drink."
"Just another instant answer......! Let me at least explain."
That's what Mr. Cologne says, and he's turning a serious eye.
"First of all, there's a good reason why you didn't get a magic spot (Stiegel)."
"What, you have a reason?
I only thought I was unlucky, but was there a reason I didn't have magic?
I can't believe you know that I didn't write in every book, that's Mr. Cologne.
"Ri, I mean, for a reason, I'm arguing... oh, don't expect too much. The pressure is killing me..."
"If it's Mr. Cologne's theory, I'll believe it."
"Shit, it's a big responsibility...! I'll do my best to talk."
Mr. Cologne restarted the conversation after taking a deep breath with his hands on his plump chest.
"Wow, I've seen one twice who doesn't have magic spots. It's your third time."
They say you're the only one in a hundred years who doesn't have magic spots, but it's something you'll find unexpectedly if you look.
Even I met Mr. Noir.
"They had something in common."
You have something in common.
It's common to both of them, which means it's common to me and Mr. Noir, too.
Was there something like that?
"They both had memories of a previous life."
"That, for example, says: 'The only pleasure of a man who had been loaded with martial arts workouts every day since before he was considerate was animation. But the man gets into an accident while working out and dies watching the cartoon. When I woke up, the man was reincarnated into a baby in a strange world' kind of memory?
When I talked to Pepper, Mr. Cologne opened his mouth.
"Well, I've never seen one who remembers that perfectly.... Is this Ash-kun's past life?
"Yes, my last life."
I admitted it honestly.
I've only told Grandpa Maurice because he's going to be treated like a freak when I talk about his previous life, but Mr. Cologne seems to know a lot of things.
Mr. Cologne wouldn't treat me like a freak.
"Normally, my memories of my previous life fade as I grow... I think. I hardly remember the two I met."
If I could, I'd keep all my memories from my past life on tape, but they only have pictures of impressive scenes.
And the picture fades as the day goes on.
A memory of a previous life would be tantamount to little left.
I said, 'I want to try magic like a cartoon character!' I could maintain my memory because I keep having dreams, 'but I guess you two didn't have those dreams.
... What about Mr. Noir?
If Mr. Cologne is right, it would mean that Mr. Noir is also a reincarnated experience... do you have memories of that time or something?
I didn't show you any such bareback... but do you want me to ask you when to anticipate it?
"So why can't the reincarnated one use magic?
"Magic spots will float on your body by the time you reach the age of one year early and four late. This one to four year old is not a physical age, but a mental age."
My theory, Mr. Cologne adds.
"In short, do you mean my mental age is a baby?
If so, I'm usually shocked.
"Oh, I'm not. When you're over four years old at birth, you don't get magic spots."
... I see.
Magic spots don't float when your mental age is over four.
You mean the mental age floats between one and four years old?
And my mental age was already over four years old at the time of reincarnation.
That's why there was no magic spot on me.
"What does the current story have to do with this drug...?
I asked Mr. Cologne while I was trying to figure out how effective the medicine was.
If you take that pill, you'll be a lot younger.
