Episode 373: Individual name (Third Party Perspective)

"Well then, see you next time."

"See you later~."

 After leaving the Elves, Rei leaves Fuhito and the others alone and heads home ... Or not.

"Is one of Luck's Kagema here?"

"Won!"

 She talks to Luck's Kagema in an unpopulated place far enough from Fuhito and the others.

 The Kagema is hiding near Rei, so it replies right away.

 Even though it's hiding, it's not watching or keeping an eye on Rei, it's just hiding within range of her voice and waiting to be of help at any time.

 It doesn't perform perverted acts like peeping into the bath or changing clothes, or following to the toilet, much less send that information to its master, Fuhito.

 Due to Luck's improved abilities, it has a body that has almost the same appearance and basic functions as the main body, so it is naturally possible to reply.

 After replying, the Kagema appears in front of Rei.

"Are you the individual that has been with me all along? Or are you Luck-chan?"

"Won!"

 Being Rei, she doesn't know what kind of existence the individual that follows her is, so she asks the Kagema, the Kagema replies which one it is, but since Rei doesn't have the skill of conversation like Fuhito, she can't understand it.

"Hmm. I don't understand like Satou-kun. Ah, right. If Yes, please give me your paw, if No, can you give me the other one?"

"Won!"

"I see, I see. As expected."

 After thinking for a while, Rei comes up with an alternative method of communication, using 

 This will allow her to quickly check simple things.

"First of all, are you the individual that always follows me?"

"Won!"

 Paw. In other words, affirmative.

"I see. Kagema are also different existences. Do you have your own ego?"

"Won!"

 Paw. In other words, affirmative.

"You have the consciousness of being an individual, don't you. Are you not Luck-chan?"

"Won!"

 Other paw. In other words, denial.

"I see. You're also Luck-chan."

"In other words, you basically have an ego, but at the same time you also have a consciousness as Luck-chan."

"Won!"

 Paw. In other words, affirmative.

"Thank you. Somehow, I understand. But, basically, you are a separate entity from Luck-chan, and you act on your own will, right?"

 Rei has come to understand to some extent about the Kagema in front of her through the exchanges she's had so far. She asks a question one last time.

"Won!"

 Paw. In other words, affirmative.

 It's basically a completely separate existence from Luck.

"Then, I have to give you a name."

 Rei thinks that if it has an ego and is a separate being, it would rather have a new name rather than calling it Luck or Kagema.

"Won!"

 The Kagema is happy to get a name, and it jumps on Rei and licks her face.

 Since it inherited its basic personality from Luck, it is 'dere dere' to Fuhito and others close to him.(TN:'Dere dere' means to fawn over or to be affectionate in this case.)

"Fufufu! It tickles."

 Rei closes the eye that is being licked by the Kagema and hugs the Kagema that jumps at her with an embarrassed smile.

"Hmm, what kind of name would you like."

 Rei thinks about its name while mofuing the Kagema.

"One who is born of chaos, or something?"

 The name that comes out of Rei's mouth is, as expected, a name that gives a Chuunibyou feeling.

"Won won!!?"

 Luck desperately sticks out its left paw at Rei in protest.

"Ara, you don't like that ..."

"Wofu~."

 The Kagema is relieved to hear her say it doesn't like it. Rei thought she had come up with a full name for it, but it is rejected, so she thinks of another name again.

"Well then, how about One who is darker than darkness?"

"Won won won!!?"

 The second one also has a similar taste, and the Kagema frantically shakes its head sideways as it keeps putting out its other paw.

"It doesn't like this either, I wonder what's wrong ..."

 Rei, who is also rejected for the second time, makes an annoyed expression.

"Won!"

 The Kagema begins gesturing with its front paws. It tries to convey its intentions to Rei by making a gesture of deftly narrowing both of its front legs.

"Umm, does that mean you want it to be shorter?"

"Won!"

 It seems that the Kagema's message has been conveyed properly, and Rei comes up with the correct answer.

"I see. Do you want a shorter, more descriptive name?"

"Won!"

 In response to Rei's question, the Kagema affirms by sticking out its right front paw.

"Is that the case. I see, well then, between Chaos(E) and Shadow(E), which do you prefer? If it's Chaos, can you give your paw, or give your other paw if it's Shadow?"

"Won!"

 The Kagema senses the presence of Chuuni, but it is presented with a name that is within the permissible range, so it chooses it without hesitation.

"You like this one, is it. Understood. I'll call you Chaos from now on."

 That choice is Chaos. It finds Shadow to be disagreeable and unpleasant because it resembles the rest of its kind too much.

"Well then, Chaos, it's sudden, but I have a favor to ask, is that okay?"

"Won!!!"

 When Rei asks with a satisfied smile, Chaos cheerfully holds out its right front paw.

 On this day, a unique Kagema is born.
