P122
Soubi: "Ritsuka, you must feel cold in these clothes. And your hair is wet."
Ritsuka: "I’m fine! We’re in a hurry!! He said he’s in the public park in the 2nd district. I didn’t know this voice. It wasn’t Seimei!!"
P123
Ritsuka: "Mother said Seimei have phoned her, but she misunderstood."
Soubi: "You’re under a delusion once again. You’re saying she’s mad."
Ritsuka: "Soubi!?"
Soubi: "What are you angry for? A woman who is beating her child isn’t sane. It would be better if she died."
Ritsuka: "Repeat that and I’ll never forgive you!! Mother is… not like that… You don’t even understand her feelings!"
Soubi: "I know what I can see. She’s weird."
P124
Ritsuka: "she’s not weird…!!"
Soubi: /ha…/ "Then are you okay with things like this?" /What will I do if Ritsuka cries?/
Ritsuka: "Shut up… I’m fine this way…"
Soubi: /Looks like he’s going to cry…/
Ritsuka: "To be murdered… just like Seimei… She would be fine if I wasn’t there… But I only need her to be there, at home…"
P125
Soubi: /To only need her to be there… Are you stupid? Or is it that… you are an angel?/ "Alright!" /Ritsuka is like this because of his mother…?/ "First put this one. You feel cold aren’t you? There’s a cool breeze."
Ritsuka: "What about you?"
P126
Soubi: "I’m fine." /Ristuka is… he’s looking for someone to love./ "Shall we go?"
Ritsuka: "Hn…"
Soubi: /He’s longing for this person ever and ever… If he found them, he would reply with all his might. But such an unwavering trust is only pure madness./ "You’re wondering who’ll be there?"
Ritsuka: "I don’t know… He didn’t give his name… But he said to come if I wanted to know about Seimei."
P127
Misaki: "Hello? Seimei? It is really you, isn’t it? Ritsuka, it’s a call from Seimei!!"
Ritsuka: "It can’t be him! Give me the phone!"
People on the phone: "Hello? You’re Aoyagi Ritsuka, aren’t you?"
Ritsuka: /Who is it? It’s not Seimei!!/
P128
Ritsuka: "Mom, you know… It’s someone I’ve absolutely never met, so why…"
Phone: "If it does not disturb you at this hour, could you wait at the public park in the second district?"
Ritsuka: "Wha…"
Phone: "Could you hurry as much as possible. I hate having to wait. I’m sure you want to know about Seimei…"
Ritsuka: "Who… who are you…!?"
Misaki: "Ritsuka? It’s Seimei, isn’t it?"
Ritsuka: "Mom…"
P129
Misaki: "Didn’t he tell you he would come back at once?"
Ritsuka: "Mom…"
Mei: "Ha!"
Mimuro: "Mei?"
Mei: "They’re coming…"
Mimuro: "Our enemies?"
Mei: "How… impressive…"
P131
Mimuro: "We’ve been waiting for you! But you must be a delinquent to come this late!."
Mei: "/This is Agatsuma Soubi!!/
Ritsuka: "I don’t have lessons to learn from a guy who phones this late! If you have something to tell, just do it!"
Mei: "System expansion! Please fight!"
P132
Mimuro: "Woa! Isn’t it too sudden , Mei? I wanted to talk a little longer! And Ritsuka-chan looks so cute…"
Ritsuka: "They’re his clothes!!"
Soubi: "… your hands feel cold. Let me hold it. Then, let me fight for you."
P133
Soubi: "For the dripping wet Ritsuka."
Ritsuka: "Then fight! Fight and disclose everything! Smash all those who hide the truth from me!!"
P134
Soubi: "Well, shall we start? Our name is Loveless."
Mimuro: "And we’re Fearless. Do you know what it means? It means ‘afraid of nothing’!!"
P135
Nisei: "A man’s brain is a mystery. Look at what you want to look at. Listen to what you want to listen to. Then, is there a meaning to what is called reality? Or something like that… System expansion!"
P136
Nisei: "I’m home! Mother! It’s Seimei! I’m back home!"
P137
Ritsuka: "Wh… who are you!?"
Misaki: "Ritsuka, it’s Seimei, isn’t it?"
Ritsuka: "Mom…"
Misaki: " Didn’t he tell you he would come back at once?"
P138
Ritsuka: "Mother… he… he hanged up!"
Misaki: /Ritsuka is behaving strangely… why is he making such a face?/
Ritsuka: "We should go to sleep now! Here are your pajamas! You’ll be able to put them on, right? Mom, you must sleep. See you tomorrow, good night."
Misaki: /I don’t have to worry any longer, Seimei is coming back./
P139
Misaki: /Seimei will help me. Seimei will protect me. Seimei will stop me. Seimei will protect Ritsuka from me. Thank God./
Nisei: "I’m home. Mother! I’m back! It’s Seimei!"
P140
Misaki: "Seimei!!"
Nisei: "I’m back!"
Misaki: "Seimei! Seimei! Why didn’t you come back earlier?"
Nisei: "I’m sorry."
Misaki: "They told me you had died! It was a lie, wasn’t it?"
Nisei: "Mother, I’m sorry."
Misaki: "Never leave me again! Please help Ritsuka!"
Nisei: "Calm down."
Misaki: "Show me your face, Seimei…"
P141
Nisei: "Mother, you know… I couldn’t come back home because of Ritsuka."
Misaki: "Huh?"
Nisei: "I can’t come back if Ritsuka is here."
Misaki: "But… why? You mean… Ritsuka mustn’t be here?"
Nisei: "Yes, it would be better if he wasn’t here."
Misaki: "What can I do… maybe if we locked him up?"
Nisei: "No, it’s not enough."
P142
Misaki: "Then…should we expel him…?"
Nisei: "hm~… it would be useless too… isn’t there another more effective way? Think hard…"
Misaki: "Really? But what can I…"
Nisei: "It would be much better if Ritsuka wasn’t there…"
