Re:Zero - Starting from Zero (Natsuki Subaru)

Chapter 22: Rem's Thoughts and the Meeting

Yes.

Rem, lying in bed, was not asleep at all.

Only after hearing Natsuki Subaru's question and the knocking did he immediately close his eyes and pretend to be asleep.

Rem didn't know why she did it.

Making such a move when facing a suspicious person is extremely dangerous; it exposes your weaknesses to others.

But Rem did it anyway.

Her intuition told her she should do it.

After Natsuki Subaru entered the room, Rem remained wary of him sitting next to her.

This makes sense, since Rem has lost all her memories of Subaru Natsuki.

To Rem now, Subaru Natsuki is a very suspicious stranger who is still reeking of the witch's scent.

The lingering witch scent on Subaru Natsuki caused Rem's expression to change uncontrollably.

Rem will never forget that taste.

The witch cult members who wiped out the demon clan, killed their parents, and even severed their sister Ram's horn all carried this kind of aura.

By the time Rem realized her expression had changed drastically, it was already too late.

"Oh no, he'll find out..."

Rem thought she would be suspected...

did not expect.

Natsuki Subaru gently took Rem's hand from the bedside.

Rem was stunned for a moment.

When I was little, my older sister Ram held my hand like this to wake me up from the pain of nightmares.

How does this person know this?

For the first time, Rem began to doubt whether she and Subaru Natsuki truly shared a forgotten memory.

At the same time, Rem also questioned whether she should be so wary and suspicious of this person.

Rem felt her heart beating faster.

"What's going on? Is there something wrong with Rem's body?"

Rem knew that if things continued like this, she would definitely be exposed.

Fortunately.

Natsuki Subaru left after watching Rem's expression gradually return to calm.

Rem sat up in bed, looking at the hand that Natsuki Subaru had just held tightly with a complicated expression.

The warmth of that person still lingered on my hands.

"Nazuki Subaru..."

……

the other side.

During the time when the screen was not displaying images, Julius and the others calmly analyzed the events of the day.

The day was filled with so many complicated events that it took everyone a long time to process all the information they had gathered.

"The information we have now is..."

"Natsuki Subaru possesses the ability to return from death."

"Or rather, he possesses the ability to rewind time, but the trigger is death, which is not important."

"Furthermore, Natsuki Subaru's current situation is most likely the result of countless deaths."

"Damn it... I don't know how much Subaru has sacrificed for us."

Julius's expression was not good.

Anastasia shrugged and continued Julius's words.

"And today, Natsuki Subaru lost all his previous memories, and then the sky descended."

"The Sky Screen will play all of Subaru Natsuki's experiences, and it will also absorb the emotional points we generate to give us rewards or add new abilities to the Sky Screen itself."

"Then the Witch of Jealousy Satella appeared and severely injured Merry, seemingly because Merry had previously caused Subaru Natsuki's death."

"Ah... it seems that Subaru Natsuki is really terrifying. He actually has the love and protection of the Witch of Envy behind him."

Xia Wula sat cross-legged on the ground, arms crossed, looking somewhat dissatisfied.

Xia Wula never expected that the jealous witch would show up here on her own initiative, and that she would try to steal her master away.

"snort."

Xia Wula shook her head, choosing not to think about it: "Can everyone analyze anything from the information we gathered today?"

Ram spoke up: "Rem has woken up, and we have regained her memories. Rem has also regained all her memories except for Balus."

Shaula squinted at Ram: "Isn't this already known information?"

Ram fell silent.

It's as if in Ram's world, Rem is everything to her.

Xia Wula was speechless, clicked her tongue, and turned to look at Julius, who seemed to be full of great wisdom.

"And you? Have you figured anything out?"

Julius first wore a serious expression, then a confused one, and finally shook his head.

Xia Wula clicked her tongue.

Shaula then looked at Anastasia: "And you?"

Anastasia shook her head helplessly.

The people sitting around the table, their hands supporting their chins, suddenly realized a fact.

They can't analyze anything!

Julius sighed: "In any case, let's not worry about things that are too far ahead, and let's not think about what Subaru will experience afterward."

"After those things, the celestial curtain will play out before us."

"What we should be thinking about most right now is... the enemies inside the Sage's Tower!"

"Yes, that's the most important thing."

Anastasia fully approves.

"Yes, the sky is giving such a clear indication that we should quickly eliminate the hidden enemy."

Ram said the same thing.

"Rem's name and memories were devoured by Gluttony... and so was mine... Crusch-sama...!?... "

"...Nazuki Subaru..."

Julius tried to think about it based on the clues from the sky.

Ultimately, only one possibility was found.

The Gluttony Archbishop, capable of devouring people's names and memories... is hidden within this Tower of Sages!

And they devoured Subaru Natsuki's memories!

Everyone realized this terrifying fact, and their pupils contracted slightly.

"Does anyone remember exactly where Subaru lost his memory?"

Ram pondered for a moment: "Lady Emilia seems to have said that she and Beatrice found Subaru Natsuki sleeping near the library and then brought him back to the Green Room."

The air fell silent for a moment.

It seemed that everyone already knew the hiding place of the enemy, the Bishop of Gluttony.

"In that case, Ram will just...!"

Ram gritted his teeth, surprisingly feeling somewhat impulsive.

There's nothing we can do about it.

The Archbishop of Gluttony devoured the memories and name of Ram's sister, Rem.

Rama deeply hates bishops who commit the great sin of gluttony.

It was because of him, because of them, that Rem fell into a deep sleep, lost her memory, and suffered so much.

That's why Ram, who deeply loves Rem, forgot about his most important little sister.

Julius was also furious.

After all, the number of bishops who suffer because of the sin of gluttony is far greater than the few he knows.

Julius tried his best to remain calm.

"Ram, you should be aware of your own situation. Are you absolutely certain you can resolve the issue with the Bishop of Gluttony?"

"Can you guarantee that your name or memories won't be devoured by the Archbishop of Gluttony?"

"Are you able to confirm the number of people on the side of the Archbishop of Gluttony?"

"We know too little, and it would be too risky to launch a rash attack."

Ram was getting a little anxious.

"Then what do you suggest we do???"

"The culprit who harmed Rem is hiding here. How can you be sure they won't attack if we don't take action?!"

Anastasia quickly stepped in to smooth things over when she saw a dispute about to break up.

"Well... let's not argue, Ram needs to calm down too..."

"The people who hurt you, all of you, Balus... and Rem's people are right here. How can I stay calm??"

Anger and murderous intent flashed in Ram's eyes, but he also restrained himself at times.

Ram is also trying his best to control it.

"Big sister..."

Rem appeared behind Ram.

Rem's eyes held a complex expression.

Ram's eyes instantly cleared, and she turned to look at Rem in disbelief.

"Rem..."
