He didn't stay long in the Seitenshi's world. Ren then left with the Angel Children.
Although Seitenshi felt regret, she had already let them see the world's changes. She was extrely relieved.
As they left, Muroto Sumire asked him for a few more tubes of "materials." Although Ren knew she wouldn't be able to research anything—none of his things could be used to create new life, not even a trace of his genes could be grasped—he indulged her. They could only be used as energy.
As soon as he returned ho, Kanae and the others were already accustod to it. Unexpectedly, Ms. Izumi and Sagiri were also there.
"Ren-kun!"
"Onii-chan!" Sagiri was even more excited, pouncing into his embrace. She would act tsundere towards others, but in front of him, she was a clingy ghost.
He gently picked her up and sat beside Ms. Izumi, placing her on his lap. Ms. Izumi smiled with relief at this scene.
"Ren, Ms. Izumi ca to find you," Nao explained.
"Looking for ?"
Ms. Izumi nodded. "It's like this, Ren-kun… This morning, I t a strange girl. She kept lingering nearby, looking for sothing. She said she was looking for you."
"Looking for ?" he was surprised.
"Yes. She said her na was Miyamizu Mitsuha, and she seed to be from the countryside."
"Miyamizu Mitsuha?" A flash of inspiration. Your Na... But how did she know him?
His gaze suddenly shifted to the coffee table. A bright red ribbon was hanging on a teacup. Ms. Izumi also saw it. "That ribbon… it looks a bit like hers."
No, it wasn't just similar. It was hers. He raised his hand, and the ribbon slowly flew into it.
"What do you want to do?" he said out of nowhere, staring at it.
Ms. Izumi and Sagiri didn't react. Ti had stopped.
"Is this your power, Ren?" Kanae asked, vigilant.
"No, it's Him." His gaze remained fixed. Under his watch, a butterfly, radiant with light, gently flapped its wings within the ribbon.
The butterfly did not speak, but he received a lot of information. First, its identity: a deity. Not one of the Eight Million Gods, but a god nad 'Musubi,' born in Itomori Town, where Mitsuha lived.
[Inorin's Note: 'Musubi' is a central concept in 'Your Na.'. It represents the invisible ties that connect people, ti, and fate, and is also the na of the local shrine's deity.]
Ren imdiately searched for Itomori. It had been destroyed three years ago by a cot fragnt.
"…But what connection does she have with ?" The butterfly continued to flap. He understood more. Three years ago, he had swapped bodies with her!
However, due to the cot, the swapping was interrupted. He gradually lost his mories of her. Musubi had intended to use a second cot to connect the present ti, to make them swap again so he could save the past. But his strength now surpassed its influence. So Musubi made a special decision: it briefly transported the past Mitsuha to the present. But she couldn't et him.
"..." All of this was a series of coincidences. He closed his eyes. Past mories instantly beca clear, including the lost segnt. His mory of swapping bodies with her.
