[It's not that Nico doesn't believe him, because he has a similar ability himself. He's more curious as to how this kid is able to know something like that.]
How could you tell...? [He doesn't want to just outright ask if he can see his soul because he doesn't want to come off like sounding like a crazy person.]
It happened to me before and...someone told me. [Because he's a sword spirit, even if he doesn't initially believe it, Sayo takes it very seriously. Something like this is too dangerous, risky to make light of it.]
[He smiles wryly, but nods. Sayo, huh.] I wonder what kind of things they're capable of, if they can go so far as to steal souls for a bit. If that's what they were trying to do.
It's fine, really. What kind of adult would I be if I left a child alone and lost? Besides, we all live in the Residential District anyway so it's on the way home for me.
Well... Alright then, I'm going to investigate what's going on, if you need me, just call for me, okay? I think there's some people I need to interrogate.
