Fai laughed and relaxed against the chair as he thought about. That definitely sounded like something he would do, even if he doesn't know the exact reasoning. "Obviously Kuro-pon was a scary sight. Was it like when I showed up? Perhaps he thought he was seeing a ghost or a fake Kuro-kuro."

The fact that he came from the same time as Kurogane had was interesting. Fai tried to remember anything that might have been any sort of inclination that he had made some strange side quest to this world before rejoining the others. But he would have noticed something at the time if that was the case. As it was there wasn't even a fragment of a memory that remained. Once again the thought that the previous him wasn't actually him came to the front of his mind. Even if their paths were similar it was possible that they were merely another version. As long as he kept that thought in his head, it made him feel a little bit better about not remembering anything.
