Floor Retake, IV

Finally.

Back where we began the journey towards that hell of ours.

"You all have coats, right?" Elijah asked from the front.

"…" I didn't, though, it wasn't much of an issue since one was resting on the ground beside me.

Oh? I noticed my katana, I noticed Chronos.

What? A voice entered my brain directly as the sword's purple crack shone.

"Huh?"

Huh? My ass.

What, I can hear you like this too? I tried speaking with my mind too.

Of course you can, we're linked together. You can say that I've become a factor too. But in my case, I was chosen by you, The One.

Hmm, now this is interesting, I thought to myself.

"Let's see, they're really dead, huh?" My mind kept going back to my comrades.

Why did I survive that destructive explosion? How did I survive it? Is it because I am The One or whatever?

I don't know, what I do realize though, is that I have no will to keep going anymore.
