"Hey, Elesis! Spill the secret!" Rena frowns.
"No, Rena. I want Ain to tell it himself," Elesis narrows her eyes, "Tomorrow night."
Rose takes the gray potion. "Will this do?"
"Um, Rose, that's a bit—"
"Annoying?" Rose smirks as she opens the potion.
"Rose!"
Race change: Alright, take a good look at yourself. Don't ask. Just look.
Add wakes up this morning-—which is unusual because he usually get up when something's bothering him.
"Good morning, Add."
Add moves his Dynamos to defense stance.
"Calm down. I'm Ishmael, Ain's creator."
Add lifts his one eyebrow. "Ain isn't human?"
"And you're an angel. For today."
"WHAT?!"
Eve wakes up. She feels weird for some reason.
She checks her pulse.
"I'm a human?" Eve tilts her head.
"It sure weird to have all sudden data on your head," Rose comments as she looks at her forehead on the mirror.
"Who are you?!" Lu looks around.
The girls turn to Lu. "What's wrong?" Elesis asks. She has pointed ears, which makes her an Elf.
"Um, nevermind," Lu forces herself to laugh, "It's just Ishmael."
Lu became an angel?!
"I hate these horns! It makes me ugly!" Aisha yells.
"Hey! You're ugly in the first place!" Lu yells.
Rena giggles. "I'm human! Yay!"
Ara looks at her reflection in the mirror beside Rose. "I'm an Elf!"
"Cool!"
They go downstairs.
"Oh! I feel so awesome as a Nasod!" Elsword shouts as he stares at Ciel.
"Then why are you analyzing a Nasod?" Ciel sighs. On closer inspection, Elsword and Ciel has core on their forehead.
Chung laughs. "I wonder what I can do as a demon."
Ara looks at Raven. He has pointed ears, which makes him an Elf.
Rose looks at all of them. "So we have 2 Humans, 2 Demons, 3 Nasods, 3 Elves, and 2 Angels. Where's Ain?"
Raven shrugs. "He doesn't want to get out from the toilet. I don't know why."
"Maybe he got stomachache," Chung says.
"I'll go talk to him," Rena smiles as she walks away.
Elesis' eyes widen. "Ah! I see!"
Everyone looks at Elesis. "No, nothing," she smiles awkwardly.
"Why does everyone loves to keep secrets lately?" Ara crosses her arms, "Eun also knew about this and she won't tell me!"
"Good news! I also knew!" Elsword smiles.
Rena knocks the door. "Ain, come out!"
"No!"
She sighs. "What's wrong?"
No answer.
Elsword walks toward her. "Elsword," Rena smiles sadly, "he doesn't want to."
Elsword smiles back. He faces the door. "Ain, it's fine! Rena can help you!"
Rena startles. "H-Help with what?"
Click!
Ain comes out. "Really? Who?"
"This Elf—although she's not Elf at the moment," Elsword points Rena with his thumb. "See you later!" he runs away.
Rena looks at Ain. "You turned into human."
Ain looks at Rena. "T-This is bad!" he shouts as he goes back to the restroom.
"Ain?" Rena tilts her head.
"Just say you want to help him, Rena!" Elsword shouts from the distance.
Rena is confused by all this. "Ain, I can help you!"
Click!
"Really?" Ain asks.
Rena blinks her eyes several times. "Um... we already talked about this."
Ain lowers his head. "Sorry."
Rena takes Ain's hand. "Come out. We can't stay here forever."
"But I can't hear Ishmael's voice!"
"You're human, Ain. I already told you!"
"Sorry."
Everyone is having breakfast at the dining room. "Good morning, Ain!" Ara waves her hand.
"Good morning, Ara," Ain greets her back.
Everyone is staring at Ain while Ara's eyes widen in surprise. "You remember my name?!"
"It just happened," Ain replies.
After breakfast, everyone is going out.
"Where did everybody go?" Ain asks.
Rena washes the dishes. "They're going to town—wait, they told us a minute ago!"
Ain lowers his head. "Sorry."
After washing dishes, Rena sits beside Ain. "What's wrong?"
"It's weird. I can't hear Ishmael," Ain answers.
"Ain, you're a human because of the potion," Rena repeats. "Please tell me you'll remember this."
"Sorry."
Suddenly the atmosphere turns to silence.
"I can't hear Ishmael!"
"Ain!" Rena grabs Ain's shoulders and stares at him, "What's wrong with you? Why do you keep forgetting everything?"
Ain tells her and makes her surprised.
"As a Nasod, I can analyze everything! For example, I can analyze you!" Rose stares at Add.
Add sighs. "Whatever."
"I can also read your feelings!"
"Yes, Rose."
Rose lies down on Add's bed and looks at the ceiling. "I wonder what happened to Ain."
"It's simple. Ishmael doesn't even have to tell me," Add replies as he looks at data on his Dynamo.
"Huh... really?"
"Not good enough, boy!"
Clank!
Raven chuckles. "That's some nice trick."
Eun giggles. "It was Ara's trick. I'm just copying."
Eun goes away and Ara returns to normal. "Eun is pretty strong, right?!"
"You're conscious?" Raven lifts his one eyebrow, "Ain wasn't conscious."
"He WAS conscious on that spar," Ara puts her hand oh her hips as she frowns, "It's just a matter of your bond with Eun."
"Let's say you have a strong bond with Eun," Raven crosses his arms, "Ask her about Ain."
"She won't tell me!" Ara frowns.
Raven turns to silence for a moment. "At least I know why he remembers your name."
Ara narrows her eyes. "Tell me!"
"Hey, calm down," Raven sighs, "I thought you knew about it already because you girls were taking a peek yeste—"
Ara face turns red. "I-I'm sorry, okay?! J-Just tell me!"
"He called her Ara's Fox," Raven says, "I think that's what Eun told him."
Someone comes to the backyard.
"Hi guys!" Rena smiles.
"Hi!"
"We're just finished sparring and things," Ara smiles back, "Should we go out?"
"Sure!" Rena nods.
"Do you know about the cat café? It seems fun!" Ara shouts.
"Let's go," Raven stands up.
Ain is confused. "What? Go? What are we—"
Rena grabs Ain's left shoulder. "Ain, we're going to cat café."
"Okay."
Raven and Ara look at each other with confused face.
Meanwhile...
"You're not going to tell us?"
"Nope!"
Elsword is smiling cheerfully. Elsword and Eve are doing double date with Aisha and Chung. They're going to cinema.
"We're going to watch horror movie?" Eve asks.
Chung nods. "Are you scared?"
Eve crosses her arms. "Of course not. Buy it."
"I'll buy the tickets!" Elsword shouts as he walks away.
"I really have no idea about Ain," Aisha says.
Chung shrugs. "Me neither."
Eve sighs. "Too many secrets lately."
"They're so cute!" Rena squeals as she caresses the cats.
Ara giggles. "I know!"
Ain is patting a white cat's head. "You like cat?" Rena asks.
"Not really, but I like this one," he smiles as he lets the cat go. "Oh, can I have some tea—"
"You already ordered black coffee, Ain," Rena smiles back.
Ain lowers his head. "Sorry."
Rena giggles. "You don't have to apologize every time."
Ain looks at the floor. He stares at the white cat. "I like that cat."
Ara forces herself to smile. "You already said it."
"Sorry."
Raven and Ara just give a sigh.
An hour before midnight, everyone gathers at the living room. "Ain, what's wrong with you?" Ara tilts her head.
"Does being a human change your brain or something?" Aisha asks.
Ain stays silent.
"Short-term memory loss," Add breaks the silence, "Ishmael has to remind him everything that is going on."
Everyone turns to silence.
"You can just tell us," Rena says to Ain.
Ain avoids eye contact. "Don't tell anyone."
"We won't tell anyone! No worries!" Rose grins.
Ain tilts his head. "Tell about what?"
Rena shakes her head as she smiles. "Nevermind about that."
"Okay."
At midnight, everyone is back to their normal self.
"Ah! Too bad!" Elsword chuckles.
Eve sighs. "I prefer you to play around as a human."
"My head hurts for some reason. I'm going to sleep," Ain says as he turns around.
"You were stressed," Rena smiles, "Good night."
Ain glances at Rena as he keeps walking. I was stressed? But why?
The others are looking at Ain walking away. "Does anyone have a clue why he doesn't want to tell us?" Lu asks.
Ain rolls his eyes. "I thought Ishmael told you already."
Everyone looks at Add, waiting for an answer.
"Ain didn't want us to worry about such thing. Sadly he forgot his own reasons, so he just stayed quiet like before," Add continues.
"That's Ain for you!" Elsword laughs.
A few meters from the living room…
"I told you not to eavesdrop, Ain."
Ain walks away. So they knew about it already?
"Add told them, but don't worry. It's fine. They're good people."
Ain tilts his head.
"You called him Ancient Boy."
"Oh…"
