I wonder why Rachel’s soul is inside of me.

Like, out of everyone, why me?

Was it a coincidence…? Or…?

“Makoto, will you take me to where Rachel is?”

First, I need to find out more about her.

And to do that, I need to figure out what her current condition is.

As such, I asked Makoto whether I could borrow the power of his cats, Shiro, and Kuro.

For a short moment, Makoto seemed as if he was thinking about it. Soon after, he lifted his face.

“I personally don’t mind, but… Per Lord Edward’s order, you are to re

As I thought, I wouldn’t be able to leave here easily considering I’m under surveillance.

With a troubled smile, Makoto then said:

“Let me try getting in touch with Lord Edward. However, I’m going to have to report on everything about you right now, is that ok with you?”

“Would… That includes my upbringing as well?”

“Yes, I will have to report your complete identity as well.”

I haven’t exactly led a prim and proper life, if possible, I’d rather others not to know.

My hands have been stained with so much blood, it’s not a past that I would want anyone to know.

But…

Before I knew it, I already had my head face downwards, feeling dejected. I couldn’t even answer Makoto’s question.

Noticing that, Makoto gently wrapped his arms around my back.

“It’s ok. He won’t care about what happened in your past. However, he just wants to make sure that you’re a safe person to be with. Besides… He’s not really someone who would be interested in other people, anyway.”

“Huh…?”

I took a deep breath upon hearing his words.

He doesn’t care about other people…? Did Rachel perhaps notice this, and decided to run away because of that or…?

“All Lord Edward is interested in is whether someone is his friend or his foe, and that’s it. If he decides you’re not a threat to him, then he’ll call off your surveillance. And well, if that happens, he’s just not going to care at all about whatever it is that you decide to do. He’s just that kind of person.”

So… When Lord Edward says that he loves Rachel, are those just empty words…?

If so, Rachel’s situation just seems miserable. Not only that, but she seems helpless to do anything about it too.

Stunned, I stared at Makoto.

In doing so, Makoto shook his head in a flustered manner.

“Oh, don’t get me wrong. Lord Edward is particularly interested in Rachel. Which is why I want them to be together.”
