Chapter 68
You’re mad after all .
I wonder how long I was sleeping .
Opening my eyes, I felt something soft under my head . At the same time, My eyes met with Kamaishi’s who was looking down at me .
“W-Welcome back, Kamiya-kun . ”
“Ah, thanks, Kamaishi-san . ”
When our eyes met, Kamaishi greeted me somehow, awkwardly .
For some reason, her face turned bright red and she averted her eyes from me . I wonder why .
I greeted her back and turned over to realize that the soft thing under my head was her lap .
I didn’t notice it since I just woke up, but apparently, Kamaishi was giving me a lap pillow .
Who knew that the day when Kamaishi would give me a lap pillow would come .
Without any particular purpose, I ran my hand through her lap .
I wonder why I feel like I already went through a similar situation .
“Um, Kamiya-kun . You are tickling me...”
Smiling at me with a troubled expression, Kamaishi asked me to stop .
I forgot that I kept rubbing her lap as I got lost in thoughts .
“Sorry, I will stand up . ”
“Ah, no, it’s fine . You’re tired, aren’t you? You can stay like this if you want . ”
When I was about to stand up, Kamaishi stopped me as she lightly pressed my head .
Accepting her kind offer, I decided to stay laying down on her lap for a bit longer .
“Where’s Lina by the way?”
“Lina-chan went to hand over that fallen god . ”
Answering my casual question, Kamaishi made a worried face .
“Kamiya-kun . About what I was talking about before you fainted, I heard everything . Although, I don’t remember you doing anything of what I heard . ”
I kept quiet for a moment after listening to what she said .
So she heard everything from Lina .
Well, I don’t think anything bad would happen if she knew about it, so it’s fine . I always thought that it won’t be a big deal if Kamaishi discovered the truth anyway . The reason that she doesn’t remember the fight is because I erased her memories of it .
“I see...”
“Yes, and when I knew that you did all of those dangerous things, I became really worried... so—”
Leaving a short moment of silence, she continued .
“Don’t try doing the impossible . I won’t ask you to not do it ever again, but at least, please, don’t die . You can ask me for advice anytime you want . Just don’t die, please . ”
I couldn’t see her face from this angle, however, I could tell that it was brimming with sorrow just from hearing her frail voice .
The hand she was placing in my head was faintly shaking and her voice was trembling .
Looks like I caused her to worry more than what I thought .
Hearing her words until the end, I raised my hands as if I gave up and said .
“I understand . I promise you, I won’t try doing the impossible and I shall ask you for advice whenever I get the chance . So please, stop saying something like that with that sorrowful face . ”
Like this, Kamaishi answered with a cheerful “yes . ”
Good grief, It looks like I’m no match for her .
I wonder why I can’t argue with her any further .
She could be one of the strongest enemies I met in a certain meaning .
I prefer fighting 10 people like Germa at the same time instead of making her sad .
Thinking about random stuff while using her lap as a pillow, this time, Kamaishi changed her voice tone and addressed .
“By the way, you kept quiet about your abilities only from me, didn’t you? Even though Lina-chan and Karen-chan knew about . ”
Unlike the sorrowful ambiance she was giving off just now, this time around it was pressing mood .
Hm, what’s this feeling?
“Well, Lina was originally from that side, and Karen discovered it only by coincidence . ”
“But you still kept it a secret from me, didn’t you?”
Ignoring my excuse, Kamaishi asked me the same question . Almost as if she was implying that I didn’t have the right to explain myself .
As I thought, she’s pressing me for an answer .
Hmm? Could it be that she’s......
“Are you mad?”
“Not really . ”
When I turned my face to look at her, she answered me and turned to look in a different direction .
You’re mad after all .
I found her angry attitude kinda cute, but since it wasn’t the perfect timing to comment about it, I
kept quiet .
For now, let’s keep making excuses .
“It’s not like I kept a secret only from you . I wasn’t intending to tell Karen either . Even at the time when Kren knew about it, I started thinking that it would be fine to tell you as well . It’s just that I Couldn’t find a good timing and necessity to do it . It’s not like I didn’t want to tell you . ”
“Then why did you tell me now? You could’ve just erased my memory with all those people . ”
Her face still looking at the other side, she added another question .
“I told you, the timing was good, so I thought it would be fine to let you know . And if I was to erase your memory of what happened, you will suddenly find yourself standing on the roof of a random building, which would unexplainable and confusing . ”
Fixing my eyes on her face, I continued .
“So can you cheer up...?”
I checked Kamaishi’s expression .
Honestly, I’m out of excuses .
Fortunately, my last excuse was acceptable and Kamaishi turned back to look at me and make a condition . ”
“I-if you do what I tell you, I can forgive you . ”
“What could it be?”
She averted her eyes and her cheeks changed to faint red color as she seemed to have a difficult time saying something .
Just what is she going to ask?
Feeling a bit worried about what she would say, I waited until she spoke again .
“From now on, I want you to call me Saya . I will call you Yato as well . ”
Hearing her request, I couldn’t hide my surprised expression .
I thought she was going to ask something on another level .
“Now that you said that, I never called you by your first name . ”
“Yes, that’s why I’d like you to do that from now on . Is it no good?”
Kamaishi waited for my answer with nervous eyes .
I didn’t have any reason to refuse .
If Kamaishi wants me to call her that way, then why not?
“I get it . I shall call you Saya from now on . ”
“Yes! I will call you Yato-kun from now on too . ”
Thus, with smiles on our faces, we promised to call each other by our first names .
It felt kinda embarrassing at first to do that, though it wasn’t a bad experience .
Probably thinking about the same thing as me, Saya’s face became faintly red .
We only have to get used to it .
After that, we had a fun time calling each other with our first name until Lina came back .
Somehow I feel like the distance between us had considerably shortened at that time .

Bonus
I won’t help you .
“Yato-kun, why do you have all those abilities?”
“In the past, My Entire Class Was Summoned to Another World except for Me, and I ended up obtaining these abilities . ”
“And what happened to your classmates?”
“Who knows . They’re probably still in that world . ”
“You’re not going to save them?”
“I don’t know the name of the world and I don’t want to go there anyway . So it can’t be helped . ”
“So if you get the name of that world, will you go?”
“Absolutely not!”
“As I thought . ”
