Chapter 26:

She asked a question nothing else

Lost tales: The Day I Saw a God


Chapter 26



After he said that Natsumi was a bit surprised. She saw the candy's cover packet but there was nothing inside the candy's cover packet. The candy wasn't there and she also felt that there is something in her mouth. It tasted like a normal chocolate. Ban noticed it in her mouth. Light also knew that cause he is the one who put that thing on her mouth. It was the candy. Before she could realizes that the thing that was inside of her mouth was the candy she ate that candy, thinking it was something stuck on her mouth while she was eating something before she died. The second she ate the candy, it got inside her stomach's digestive system. The very moment it was digested in her stomach she starts to remember her memory in the void with Ban and Light. She closes her eyes and her head falls on the table. She remembers what they talked about and what happened to her in there. She also remember the moment when she agreed to remove her memories with them. She also remember all the place she visited with Ban and all the fun memories of the places she visited. Germany, London, Paris, Antarctica and all the country and places she visited with Ban. By remembering all of her lost memory she also realizes that the memory of her and Ban on a date was a false memory and that the picture that she founded scattered besides a camera, was not a camera and pictures of a con artist rather the camera was Ban's camera and the pictures that were scattered around were taken by Ban when they visited all of those countries and places.

Ban [Is it really the candy that holds her memory? Or was it just a normal candy? Still will she even remember her memories of that time after eating that candy? The chances of remembering her memory of her world is hundred percent but the chances of remembering the memory of void is close to five percent. I don't think she will remember it.] 

Light while standing he reads Ban's mind. He realizes what Ban was thinking.

He looks at him and replies to him :"Don't worry like that. She really eat the candy that holds her lost memories. Don't worry she will be one of the five percent. I guarantee that."

Ban calms down and sits down after hearing that.

Light then looks at Natsumi and replies to her after realizing that she remembers everything she forgot :"Do you remember now?"

Natsumi was shocked and surprised remembering all those memories. She replies to him :"I remembered those memories."

Ban got completely relieved after hearing that from her and asks her immediately :"Do you remember a place called void zero?"

Natsumi looks at Ban and replies to him :"I remember it. Don't worry." 

Ban takes a breath of relief and also Natsumi continues :"Also I am sorry for behaving so rudely with you after you tried your best to make my life without regrets."

Ban was happy after hearing that from her. He took his left hand behind his head and and scratches his head and he replies to her :"No, it's okay. It was my job. Things like that can happen in this type of work. Also I should have given you the candy after you died and enters the gateway"

Natsumi replies to him (Ban) after hearing that :"I take back my apology."

Ban stops scratching his head with his hand. He replies to her after hearing that from her :"Why?!"

Light replies to him :"It's not that big of a deal. It's just an apology."

Ban got a bit angry at him after hearing that reply and replies to him :"She wasn't supposed to even apologize to me in the first place. It was your fault from the beginning that you didn't give her the candy and let her eat it that this become a big deal."

Light replies to him :"Like I said before she is the one who didn't take it."

Ban asks Natsumi after hearing from him :"Is this true, Furakawa-San?"

Natsumi replies to him :"I didn't know he was trying to give me this. Though It's true. I was angry at him because of that."

Ban didn't asks what the thing she was angry at him for. Because he already saw the past. He understands feelings. He lived hear for hundreds of year and saw many cases like this. So he knew it's better not to asks her about that. Because she might get angry or depressed if he asked her that question

Light replies to him after he heard that from her :"You see! I told you that's not my fault. It was her fault since she didn't take it."

Natsumi was still angry at him and she got more angrier after hearing that from his mouth. Natsumi replies to him (Light) with a angry voice but with a gentle smile :"Just because I remembered my lost memory doesn't mean that I have forgiven you. So I hope you rather don't talk about anything in front of me."

Light got a bit scared after seeing her smile. He feels a sudden chill around his neck.

Light [I didn't created any evil being like the Satan in the bible. If there is somebody who can be as much as evil as Satan is supposed to be in the bible. I think she can fulfill it. She is scary.]

Natsumi understands that he is thinking something by looking at his face. Natsumi again replies to him (Light) :"If you have something that you are thinking to tell me. Then tell me what you are thinking."

Light didn't told her what he was thinking cause he knew that if she told her what he was thinking then his great long life he lived might come to an end. 

Light [First you tell me to not to talk in front of you with that smile. Now you tell me to say what I was thinking!! Even if someone give me endless amount of food and sake I wouldn't still told you cause I don't wanna get beaten up anymore by you. It still hurts.]

Natsumi starts to get irritated to wait for him and asks him (Light) angrily :"Won't you tell me what you were thinking, the greatest being god, Light???"

Instead of Light, Ban asks her :"Did you forget that you have told him to not to talk in front of you?"

Natsumi did actually forgot about that after seeing his (Light) face.

Natsumi replies to him (Ban) with a surprised face :"Yup, you are right. I really did forgot."

Ban replies to her :"No, it's ok to forget in this time. Also he might have actually didn't thought of anything at that time"

Natsumi was bit of unsure if he is telling the right thing. Though still Natsumi believes in him and replies to him (Ban) :"I guess since it is coming from you I will believe it."

Ban replies to her :"Thanks"

Light closes his eye and thought to himself after hearing that from her [I am really grateful to you Ban. Because of you I don't have to get beaten up again. I am really really grateful]

Natsumi looks at Ban with a normal smile and replies to him (Ban) :"No, it's nothing special to be grateful for. Also I have wanting to asks this after eating that candy and remembering all of this."

Ban asks her :"What it is?"

Natsumi asks him :"Since you were a human and turned into a God. Did you create a world with immortal beings on it? Like mortal living being like human becomes immortal in it?"

Ban downcast his eyes and makes a sad expression. He then replies to her :"Yes, I created a world like that in the past."

Natsumi gets happy after hearing that and asks him in excitement :"Then it should have been successful, right? Well I don't have to ask you because all of the people you created on this world must have lived peacefully ever after..... Aren't I right???"

She stands up from the chair and pour water from a jug in the table to a glass. She drinks water from that glass. Ban still didn't reply to her rather he was sitting quietly with a sad expression.

Natsumi got curious because she wanted to know why he remained silent and didn't reply. So she asked him :"Why aren't you replying? Did I say something wrong?"

Ban still didn't reply but Light replies to her :"Since he doesn't wanna reply to that now. You can ask him later."

Natsumi thought to herself after hearing that like this [I guess, I should listen to him for now. Also he kinda looks down after I asked him that]
