where obsession needs to go?

the direction of relieving?

Deep in the night

Far off the light

Missing my headache

Visions of light

Sweeter delight

How come I must know

where obsession needs to go?

How come I must know

where the passion hides its feelings?

How come I must know

where obsession needs to go?

How come I must know

the direction of relieving?

Hey, it's Mimiru. How are you doing?

I'm worried because I haven't seen you around at all!

You know... Well, I'll be waiting in the courtyards of Dun Loireag.

I'll be waiting, so do drop by.

Ok?

What kind of a change of heart is this?

Well, there were a lot of things going on...

A lot of things... a convenient phrase.

It is!

And so, that's why I decided to hang out with Tsukasa until I puke.

So it'll be nice to see you around.

You say that, but...

Oh, it's all right.

I'm just solidifying my feelings by talking to others about it.

It's nothing great, is it?

Hang out until you puke...

What will you do?

Tsukasa is still missing, you know.

But, I can call out to him.

And?

You should know that he's not the type that will...

...come crawling out just because you call him.

Yeah...

I don't get it...

I know that.

What I don't understand is what you're thinking.

I... I'm not good at thinking.

Though I like to make schedules and stuff...

...I've never done things according to the schedule even once.

If I call out to him, all I can do then is wait.

That's about all I can do right now.

Just wait...?

Is that bad?

That doesn't seem any different from doing nothing...

If I can make him understand I'm waiting for him...

...I think that's good enough.

I think the rest is up to Tsukasa, anyway.

So, in that case, all I can do is wait, right?

What?

I hope those feelings of yours reach him.

Are you scheming again?

Not yet.

What!?

Just kidding.

It's tough to just sit and wait...

Speaking from experience?

Who knows?

It's too late...

No!

Why?

Mother, you told me to meet Mimiru in the beginning.

Why!?

I really don't care, but...

...I don't want to go.

Wait, huh?

That's all my feeble brain could come up with.

I don't like how you said that.

You're much more intelligent than you make yourself out to be, Mimiru.

No, I'm just a good-for-nothing!

Even when the Crimson Knights were all out looking for him...

...they couldn't find him.

Perhaps Tsukasa has a place set aside just for him.

He's a character that has surpassed the system.

It wouldn't be strange for him to have such a place.

If that's so...

...it would be downright impossible to search for and find Tsukasa.

Perhaps the best and only choice we have on the net is to wait.

I don't think it's the best, but it might be the only...

What about outside?

Well, there were a lot of things going on...

What a convenient phrase.

You're retorting in unison now?

In other words, you haven't found anything too important.

You get lines by connecting a point to another point.

When the lines close, the outlines for the situation start to appear.

The more points there are to connect...

...the clearer the outline becomes.

But, right now, we're still looking for those points.

I'll leave the outside stuff to you, Bear. I'll just sit here and wait it out.

Oh, sorry. I'm gonna make some tea now.

Yeah...

When a player steps away from his console, this happens to him.

It's something that is so obvious...

However, Tsukasa does not lose control of the character...

...despite not being in front of a console.

Yeah... I'm sure that the reason for that...

...can't be found out from the outside.

I think the key to solving the mystery lies within this game.

Of course, it is connected to Tsukasa as well.

However, getting to the truth of...

...the matter may be a little too much for Mimiru.

At least, that's what this old man thinks.

And so, you want me to seek that?

There may be a need to do some research...

...on something other than Tsukasa.

MISTER Bear is good at using other people.

Don't call me that.

Depending on how we carry this out, Sora may also be of use.

I'm not so sure about him...

Have you seen little Tsukasa anywhere?

We don't know about him.

I see.

Mister!

Do you know about little Tsukasa?

Hey, wait!

You have to answer the question properly.

I know about him...

Oh, good. Where did you see him?

On the Board.

You're too dumb.

I think... that is a problem.

However, the Knights getting down to controlling Sora's actions...

Lady Subaru, even if only for a short time...

...he once acted in concert with the Knights.

If we leave such a man to keep wreaking havoc...

...the pride of the Knights...

Pride, huh?

Anything else?

The matter of those monsters.

It looks like it's starting to calm down.

At this rate, we may be able to say that it was simply...

...a bug in the test data for the next version.

It was good that the Board didn't become as unruly as I expected.

With the issue of the monsters calming down...

...is the issue of Tsukasa also being buried?

What is it?

I have a favor to ask you.

You're keeping your distance from Tsukasa...

...but there still is a need...

...to look into this ''bigger flow'' that he got involved in, something that...

...might eventually rock the entire realm of The World.

I've heard that's the assumption the Knights are operating under.

Are you interested in how the Knights operate?

No.

What I am interested in is the ''bigger flow''.

For now, are you the only one in the Knights...

...who suspects just how grave the situation is?

Are you trying to sell yourself?

I know you're smart, but...

...I'm not sure if I like how you jump to conclusions...

I don't see your point.

In other words, I'm asking you with that in mind...

Whoa, it's getting light outside...

I think I'm going to pass out if I stay still.

So he did come here...

Hey! Hey! Wait a minute!

I'm sorry, I thought you were someone else.

I'm sorry.

Are you bored? How about joining my party?

I'm not bored.

You look really bored.

Sorry, I'm waiting for someone.

Didn't you say that before?

Is that so?

Yeah, you did say it.

I remember.

Maybe the guy you're waiting for is Godot.

Oh, this isn't funny at all... See ya!

There you are.

Of course, here I am!

You haven't slept a wink?

I feel like I wouldn't be waiting if I fell asleep.

I understand that, but... I can take your place for about an hour or so.

I think it would be for your benefit to at least get some sleep.

If I'm not here when he comes...

...I'm sure he'll just go back into hiding again.

I don't want that to happen.

Are you going to last until he gets here?

I'm still young. I'll do my best during this short vacation.

Your will stands firm...

Hey, what is Godot?

Did BT mention that?

No. A passer-by did. What is Godot?

There is a famous play.

Play? Oh, you mean theatre... what's it about?

Two men wait and wait for a man named Godot.

That's all there is to it.

And Godot doesn't show up, does he?

No, he doesn't.

I'm sure Tsukasa will be here. I'm waiting because he will come.

Don't do that! I'm not a kid.

Oh, pardon me.

So you're BT?

''You''?

I have nothing against you. This is the type of guy I role-play.

Don't worry about it.

Or would you rather have me call you ''BT''?

I hate to say this, but you are a guy who won't be popular nowadays...

I hate what you would call fads.

No matter what others say, I personally like this character.

So, you have a pet peeve?

Plenty of 'em. You want to hear about 'em?

I'll decline.

That's right... Subaru didn't arrange...

...this place for us to talk about such things, huh?

Let's get to the point. What do you want?

To discuss Tsukasa and things concerning him...

...and something that might have reference to the future of The World.

I love conversations like that.

I know you're there, so it's a waste of time for you to hide.

Or do you want me to go over there?

Let's talk!

There's nothing to talk about.

Are you wondering how I knew you were here?

BT?

You're a popular topic on the Board.

They're saying there's a female heavy blade...

...here who's just is waiting for someone.

Isn't that bad?

That's... bad.

You see, you see? It's harder for Tsukasa to come here, isn't it?

Why did you decide to meet up with him here?

Because we use this place a lot...

That's it? So you didn't give it any thought.

There were plenty of places where you...

...would be unseen, like a dungeon somewhere.

Well, I don't mind because I can wait for Tsukasa here with you.

You're going to wait, too!?

I have the right to, don't I?

I was the one that let him escape from the Knights!

You ruined the chance I had because you were useless!

You do understand that, right?

I now know what's been on Subaru's mind.

I also know that a Wavemaster...

...named Tsukasa is the focal point of all of it.

And?

In this case, the Crimson Knights...

...starting with Silver Knight, are of no use.

I have no wish to start a coup d'etat.

I am not one for political warfare, either.

What else is there to do?

What can we do by ourselves without a group to fall back upon?

There are advantages to being just the two of us, too.

BT?

I hate beating around the bush! Tell me the main point straight-up!

Your ability to act and my ability to analyze.

When we have both in one place...

...we can gather information more quickly, without being noticed.

Information?

Tsukasa is just one result...

...or one of the processes that is currently visible.

The cause is something else.

Unless we figure out that ''something else''...

...we have no place to start from.

That is why Subaru wants to know what it is, too.

You have any leads?

Tsukasa is a problem because his actions surpass that of the system.

We know that there is...

...an item out there that surpasses the system as well.

That's no good. Such a thing does not exist.

Can you really say that confidently?

I once looked for such an item. But it didn't exist anywhere in The World.

Everything about The World need not be visible to our eyes.

There is no need to deny the existence of something...

...just because you couldn't find it.

If you feel up to it, let me know.

To find the Key of the Twilight...

This is fate...

Hey, what are you gonna do, Crim!?

Time?

What?

You didn't specify a time?

Nope.

How stupid!

Why?

Do you have any motivation?

That's why I'm waiting here!

There are limits...

...decide what time first. From this hour to that hour.

If you wait just during that period every day...

...you'll be able to last much longer.

I see...

You just don't think enough.

I can't take it anymore. I'm gonna logout.

So you're happy about that, aren't you?

No, of course not. I thought I'd be bored by myself again.

Then, I'll stay.

Just kidding. I'd get scolded if I stayed up any later.

You have a favor to repay regarding Tsukasa.

Don't forget that!

I'm sure she's not there... there's no way she'd still be there...

I think Sora has a point, but...

...there's something else. Since Tsukasa can't logout, he's always...

...somewhere within this game, so I have to stay here all the time as well.

That's why this is all right...

Oh, but maybe I should have made it a dungeon...

You really were here...

Hey!

You're so stupid.

Wait!

I'll protect you...

From what?

From all sorts of things.

You think you can protect me?

I'm not sure.

But that's what I've decided. I've decided to do this!

Do as you like.

Sure!

This is good. Tsukasa knows nothing.

The higher it is dropped from, the worse the crash will be.

Hope is the best spice to bring out despair...
