Cleaning the way

Gen stopped walking, and said, "Alex! What did you do?!"

"Hm? what do you mean Gen? I didn't do anything.", Alex said.

Upon hearing this Gen looked lost for a few seconds, and after returning to normal looked at Alex and said, "Alex, pay attention. Do you remember what happened in the restaurant?"

Alex then thought for a moment and said, "You mean that red mist?"

"That's right. It almost happened again now."

"Was it my fault?"

"Yes. You didn't do anything wrong, but I need to make something clear to you. As long as I'm using my spear essence, you can't speak my name at all. You probably thought of my name earlier, didn't you?"

"Yes."

"That's what I thought. Don't think about my name either."

"But why G-, why?"

"I can't explain it to you, the only thing I can say is that it has something to do with my past."

"... ok. I won't speak or think your name anymore."
