“Jimin… what kind of guy do you want to be remembered, after you die?”

“What do you mean, Delete!? Don’t die! You can get up!”

“It might take a while, but… try to figure it out. This is… my… last homework.”

It’s afternoon, and raining so hard.
I brought his mask. When people are gone, I will go there and put this next to him.

Today’s the last day of my mentor’s funeral.
Sorry, Delete. Your awful student can’t even say goodbye to you.
Forgive me watching your last moment just far away.

He was a criminal. When he didn’t know how this world is going, he hated this entire world.
He robbed banks, a lot. But he didn’t take money at all. He was just that kind of guy.
But he said someone told him the truth.

That this world surely can be a worst place, but you, you must not ignore the people who works for the better world.

Someday, he disappeared completely. Then worked as Delete, my mentor.
He fought the criminals, villains, those who were once his friends.

And now his story has ended. Mr.Goodguy killed him.

Nobody will cry for my mentor, because as he dies his previous life has revealed.
Mr.Goodguy will be a hero. Next target will be me.

I will have to back to normal high school student. Forgetting every enemies that I’ve fought with Delete.
I just hope Delete’s effort doesn’t become meaningless.

I brought his mask. When people are gone, I will go there and put this next to him.

Wait.

Someone is approaching to his funeral.

It’s Mr.Goodguy.

People are in danger.

He took a knife out. Someone has to stop him.

But who?

Sorry, Delete. Let me borrow your mask.

May 2nd, NaietteVerse
