I can't believe it. I'm getting so close to the part where Baji dies. I don't know if I'll succeed in saving him so I decided to spend some time with him.
"Y/N-san, I still don't understand why we came here of all places. We can just go to watch a movie or something." Baji looked a little bummed by the fact that I brought him to an abandoned park. But it wasn't just for fun that I decided to be with him. It's all part of what needs to be done.
"There is a reason why we are here." I sounded rather irritated but can you blame me? It's not Baji who I am mad at but rather this stupid creature that I saw in my dream who is now small and flying to the right side of my head and apparently no one else other than me can see him.
"Oh, okay then. I'm really hungry though. Maybe we can have some peyang yakisoba at my place later. And we can also call Chifuyu." He flashed a huge smile at me and I couldn't help but smile back only to hear a low whistle from Mr Demon Lord.
I flicked him with my fingers and moments later he was back with an angry expression. I could only sigh.
Paying him no mind, I decided to do what I needed to do. "Baji, there is something I need to talk to you about." I began as we sat down under a tree. He laid down with his hand behind his head and hummed.
"There will be someone from Valhalla who will be joining your gang." His eyebrows shot up in surprise as he sat up with the speed of light. "Hah! You mean 'that' Valhalla?!"
I flunked his forehead. "Do you know any other? Now listen." He nodded. "And there will also be many other unfortunate things happening but you need to promise me that you won't do something reckless."
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is that you will not try to act like a secret spy or something. Let me handle all this."
His eyebrows furrowed. "And what can you do? Can you even fight?" He didn't sound disrespectful, just curious.
"That's quiet a brat you got." The black-winged guy snickered as he sat on my shoulder. "Shut it." Was all I whispered back.
"Baji Keisuke, I can very well defeat you in a fight. But I tend to use my brain more than my fists." I smirked and pointed at my head with my finger. What can I say, I have a knack for dramatics.
"Okay okay. But more importantly, how do you know all this?" He looked so confused right now it's funny. But if I remember correctly from the manga, he was quiet smart and was the only one to realise that something was wrong. Or maybe it was just an instinctive decision. Today, there will also be the meeting where Toman will decide to fight Moebious and Pah will be gone.
"Well, just know that I have my eyes and ears everywhere." I gave him a knowing look causing him to gulp. "And now, before getting some yakisoba, you should go for the meeting. I'll wait for you by your house."
He stood up in a hurry. "How did you know about the meeting?" We started walking towards his bike. I know we just got here but I deliberately chose such a time so that we don't have to talk unnecessary shit cause I've got more things to do.
"That's cause Hinari told me." Right, I've also got to tell her the truth.
"Bye Baji." I waved at him as he rode off alone after I declined his offer to go together.
"Tell me your secret please~" The dude on my shoulder said in a squeaky voice. I groaned and flicked him off again, only for him to come back.
When I looked at him, he was smiling from ear to ear. "What's got you smiling like that?" I asked as I walked with my hand in the pockets.
