Chapter 49 - Roxas' Singing Spirit

Third person POV

 Later, at home, in his room in the late afternoon, Roxas was singing one of his favorite Filipino songs with silence; he only moved his mouth. Also, while listening to that song, he made movements and gestures with his body to express his interpretation of it. Roxas was happy and in his singing spirit. Anko within him was also in the spirit of singing thanks to Roxas' music-embedded memory and mind.

 The next morning, in his morning walk across the safe zone in the neighborhood, Roxas was singing the same song from the previous afternoon, happy in his memory and the lyrics of that song. The lyrics were in Tagalog, and he can understand that very well. And then, Evil Kirito was walking towards an intersection when he saw Roxas singing and dancing around while walking. Evil Kirito was stunned with confusion to see him singing and dancing around while being immersed in his little, but very colorful world of music. The song-dance episode of Roxas ended up with a fist toward the sky while Roxas was saying, "Yeah, reform!"

After that, he looked at Evil Kirito and was taken aback by his presence with mild fear. "Um…uh…good morning…"

Evil Kirito then smirked at him. "Good morning, Roxas Nietes."

The Elite Player then applauded at his singing ability. "Good singing there."

 "Y-Yes, thank you, Salamat," Roxas responded back nervously and positively.

He then said thank you in Dutch, Korean, Vietnamese, and Spanish.

Evil Kirito was confused by these words, so Roxas explained what those words mean according to their languages.

 After that, Evil Kirito gets it and says with an innocent look on his face, "That was quite impressive of you. You're a genius." With that, he left the scene. Roxas and Anko then sighed in relief.

 "That was so close…" Roxas commented with an imitated Spanish accent.

 "Me too…" Anko added while nodding.

After that, both of them continued on going to school, where their friends were waiting for them.

 Throughout the day, Roxas would be in his singing spirit mode from time to time, except during class hours. He also did that at one of the school's Student Lounges, a special kind of lounges where students can relax, unwind, watch stuff on TV, listen to music, and play video games during off-class hours. This was one of Roxas' favorite places for singing, dancing, writing stories, being alone in his closed-door mode, and acting. Anko liked his diverse array of skills, both practical and technical. Their friends also liked it, too.
