Certainly, merits and experience had more credit than the lack of a name! At least to Hanako.

(His current name wasn’t his past one either, so he’s not holding it against anyone!)

So the boy just smiles, thoughtful for a moment. “That it is! I can’t even remember how I got here~”

Humor indeed, though Hanako’s statement is more fact than fun.

“In that case… for the time being, until you remember or choose a new one, mind if I call you No.2?”

It would be quite befitting of his status too!
