What Jellal and Erza had discussed was all so frighteningly accurate that Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko were at a loss for words. They haven't been participating in much of the drama as they're more of a laid-back, observing trio. Much like the Naras, but they're not teenagers anymore, and trauma makes it difficult to act like the teenagers their appearances make them out to be.

They're just more relieved and a bit envious at how the world is so much better than when they were alive. So while everyone was being part of the story, they had their own world by themselves and decided collectively that maybe they should reincarnate after all this chaos has died down. They're just not sure if they'll be able to find each other again and be friends, but that's something to work out on later in the Afterlife Realm with Sage of Six Paths.

Coming back to Jellal and Erza figuring out who most of them were, they noticed others who've somewhat realized and know who they are as well.

Nagato, "The Nara already knows."

Yahiko, "Well that's obvious."

Konan, "Orochimaru's child seems to be just as aware as Nara Shikadai."

Yahiko, "And although they aren't just as smart, the Yamanaka boy and that Earth Style user seems to have figured out a good few of us."

Nagato, "Even better, the taijutsu lad and technology kid seem to find their suspicions now. Slowly but surely. These kids are damn good."

Konan, "I agree. The konoichis are just as impressive. Us girls always have another sense, so seeing Wasabi's reactions to us, Namida's careful gaze, Tsubaki always looking for a way for us to mess up and find confirmation, Cho-Cho's pores raising any time she feels something off about us, and Sarada and Himawari's subtle glaring, it makes it ever more reassuring how trained and experienced these kids are despite it being more peaceful now."

Nagato, "Whoa! I barely noticed any of those girls. Especially the first three. I really underestimated them."

Yahiko, "It's because of how sweet and gentle they seem. You'll think they're harmless as well since they don't stand out as much as Sarada, Cho-Cho, and Himawari. But it's because they're barely given any acknowledgment that they're so good. Those three take their side character roles to their advantage, so no one pays attention to them."

Konan, "No wonder Izumi-san has taken a liking to them. I like them too."

Nagato, "That's mad insane. It's almost scary."

Konan, "But again, that's normal with girls to begin with. I'm sure even the toddlers here have felt something weird with us as well. Children are said to see things we don't, especially when they're just infants. Toddlers still sense things tho."

Both the boys on either side of her grew completely silent, sharing shocked glances at one another.

Konan keeps going, "Tbh, even the old people sense things. And if it's to do with death, they already know from the moment they get a bad dream or something. I won't be surprised if any of the elders in Oakridge know that we're not technically alive."

And to make it even more shocking, the kids and elders of Oakridge Town are like professional shinobis already!

By the time dinner was over later that night, a screech was heard along with the sight of huge, mighty, flapping wings. Well, at least that's what it looked like. It was just the newcomer's style of clothing that had sleeves similar to that of wings. Bat wings.

One of the kids pulled on a granny's long skirt. Gaining her attention, the child asks, "Grandma, what's that?" while pointing to the person cosplaying as a bat.
