This reminds me so much of my home.

A nameless church.

Ah, what a fabulous home it was.

'Twas my beloved and shabby church.

Alas, she no longer exists.

Yes.

Pain must exist in this world.

sasayaku kaze no ne no shirabe

The melody of the whispering winds

shigure no kokoro wo sarai sugu

Carries my rainy heart away

sukashita konpeki no sora wa

The translucent, azure skies

kikyouiro ni kawaru no

Change to match the blue of bellflowers

utsurou maboroshi wa kakuen to shite izu

The wavering illusion appears with a crimson glare

yorisoeru tsuioku to tomo ni megurase

And spreads around with recollections I hold dear

kasaneta tomohishi no omoi wa

The accumulated memories act as lamps

tadori kita michi no shirube

Marking the path I followed here

ikusobaku no kotonoha yori mo hitotsu no shirushi

A single insignia is greater than countless words

kakedasu ashioto wa haruka tokoshie no tooto he

My running footsteps turn into an eternal, distant sound

matotta rasen no chikai wo kono ryoute de kizamikonde yuku

I'll continue carving the spiral pledge clad around me with my own two hands

My bad, Prez.

Chapter 11

The Insane Believer is Somewhere

You're still in pain, right?

No, I'm fine now.

Besides,

you'd have a better grasp of the situation with a third-party opinion.

Let me get this straight.

Fear-kun suspects you, Ningyouhara Kuroe-kun,

as someone who's involved with the serial killer.

She also has evidence to prove it.

First being those who were murdered were attendants to your shop.

Second being...

She witnessed you eating the victims' hair herself.

In addition, the news say that some of the victims' body parts...

...were missing instead of being molded into a box.

So the victims have had parts of their body taken away.

How about this?

Just lock me up until your suspicions are gone.

Huh?

If you want to be locked up, then be my guest!

What on Earth is your curse?

Maybe you still have it!

An abominable curse.

A curse that was forged through layers of curse.

Why am I—

Fear!

Hey—!

Yachi.

Just leave her be.

She doesn't want to suspect Kuroe.

She's just a child.

I'm not going to ask whether or not it's true,

but why are you doing it, Kuroe?

Why am I offering to lock myself up?

Why you were doing what Fear saw.

It's not because of my curse.

It's just a means of refueling my powers.

Aside from that,

I figured that the owner was dead,

so I ate the hair in their memory.

Why don't you just tell Fear that?

Do you really think that will convince her?

It's as if someone told her that curses can't be lifted.

What are you looking for?

A deck of cards.

They can be Japanese ones, too.

It's going to be a long night.

That visitor's villa is best for confining me. Right, Kono-san?

A deck of cards?

Well, we could gossip.

No!

Oh, right.

I've been meaning to ask,

who is this girl?

Could it be Haru's...?

It's our first time meeting, but I feel that I understand her already.

This is the Student Council President of Haruaki's class.

Oh, I see.

Though I may be a den to you,

I hope our relationship lasts a lifetime.

It's burden.

Oh, my.

You found me.

You shouldn't be fighting with your friends, you know.

I thought you'd figured it out by now, so I came by for another visit.

I think we've figured out the common trait.

You were killing customers of the beauty parlor, weren't you?

Unfortunately,

you'll need to look deeper into that trait.

That's what you'll have to deduce.

What?

That's not it?

Thanks, Kuroe.

Now, where shall we flail about?

I've no preference.

Wait right there!

Konoha!

Stay here!

I don't want you getting buried again!

Fear—

Be careful.

It's odd.

Why did she just break glass?

Why would she start a fight and run immediately after?

Just a hunch,

but don't you think she effectively split us apart?

Oh, my.

It seems you're quite the sharp one.

Not that it matters, though.

Haru!

"Welcome to Other-side."

Kuroe!

Yachi!

My, my.

I wouldn't move if I were you.

What do you want with us?

I just want a hostage.

Do not worry about Kuroe-sama,

I've only paralyzed her body,

leaving both her eyes and mouth intact.

Thank you for that.

Prez. You should get out—

My, my.

Make any false movement and I'll make pomegranate juice out of him.

Fine.

Do as you wish.

Please enter this container.

This is quite the suite you have.

The hard, cold steel is irresistible!

Please put these on your hands and feet.

My, my.

Would you like some fresh juice?

Fine.

You, too.

My apologies for the delay.

Let us start the event.

Huh?

It's a video message.

Let's begin.

So, Fear-sama,

if you want these three returned to you safely,

you'll promise...

...that you'll come with us.

I hope you get it, Fear!

No, no.

She doesn't...

...get it at all.

What'd you say?

There is no salvation without suffering.

Think about the serial killings.

There is a great deal of pain in thinking about its meaning and reaching the truth.

What're you saying?!

That we, the Families...

...just wish to invite you...

...just want to spend time with you...

...just want to drink tea.

...just because.

Won't you accept us...

...as part of your family?

That's right.

We wish to become a part of your family.

Your splendid family.

Your family without humans.

Families...

Families love!

They bring salvation!

They accept one another!

So that a family can be a family!

We have a very simple stance.

We,

the Bivorio Families,

fully accept Waas.

"Fully accept Waas"...?

Yes.

We accept everything about a Waas.

Even their curses.

We accept the curses which led to the birth of you higher beings.

You can use your curses to deal with humans however you see fit.

We will acknowledge you.

We will accept you.

If you wish to kill,

then we shall kill.

If you wish to drive your owner mad,

then we will gladly go mad.

And if you wish to steal the life of your owners,

then we will gladly...

offer our lives to you.

That doesn't make me happy.

Not for me.

Not in the least bit.

Total love and acceptance of Waas.

That is the key to being accepted as a member of the Families.

So, I had some family members cooperate with me.

Cooperate with you?

Yes, the family members had no regrets while dying.

Screw that!

What the hell?

What the hell was that?!

Is that the common trait?

Yes, indeed.

I see...

It wasn't that Kuroe's customers were being killed.

They were coming as customers to be killed!

Oh, that's right.

Here's one last thing.

They were all wearing crosses.

Was that a bit too subtle for you?

We wanted you to truly experience how wonderful we were by overcoming pain for the sake of salvation.

I don't understand any of this, but I have a question.

Why did you mutilate the bodies?

Oh, the curse of Cannibal Cooker is simple.

You just feel the need to kill and eat someone.

So, Fear-sama,

do you understand the situation?

Once you've made up your mind,

please come to the location marked on the map.

We'll welcome you with open arms.

No, thank you.

I'd rather not!

The Insane Believer is Somewhere

Now, everyone.

Please, make yourselves at home.

Can you move your hair at all, Kuroe?

If I could, I would've used it ages ago.

Figured.

Are there any cracks on the door, Yachi?

Let me see...

It's stuck.

Let me help you.

How dare you?

You flipped my skirt while fixing it.

Wait a sec!

I helped you, but I didn't flip anything!

How cute, the couple's blushing.

I said, it was an accident!

You're...

You're pretty calm.

Am I?

I think it's normal.

Don't you think it's weird to think that?

We're locked up.

He's like an old man.

His spiritual age is old enough to be the head priest of a temple.

Well, there's not much we can do about it.

All we can do is wait.

But I would've freaked out if I were alone.

I can stay calm because you're both here.

I feel at ease.

I see.

I feel the same way.

You're really helping just by being here.

But I'm the one who's actually going to help you.

Wh... Who are you?

How did you—?

I didn't notice him.

How, you ask?

I just opened the door and walked in.

This is a Waas which makes its owner become detached from this world.

It's named after the name who was first forced to wear it.

Il est dans Bastille.

That's how you sneaked in?

Right.

The mask doesn't just lighten your existence,

but your actions as well.

That's a hundred points for good listening skills, Yachi-kun.

How do you know my name?

Whoa, there.

Kirika hasn't told you yet?

I knew I could count on—

Shut up!

I am a member of the Laboratory Kingdom,

and Ueno Kirika's partner.

This is exactly why I told you not to involve yourself with the Families.

That woman's name is Alice Bivorio Basskreigh.

Mother-of-Canonical.

She who has the title of (A), the Beginning. The First Mother.

She's the founder of the Families. If the founder of this madness is here,

then there's no telling what'll happen.

But man, showing him your secret was reckless gamble, Kirika.

You did see it, right?

Did it get you hard?

You'll live a very painful life.

Shut the fuck up!

You're the reason why Prez had to hold it in until she collapsed—

I'll ask you once, then.

Why are you locked in this cell right now?

Let go of him!

Little brat.

Annoying cunt.

I'll thank you for saving me,

but don't you dare lay a finger on Yachi.

I didn't really touch him, though.

Shut it!

Now undo Yachi's—

Kirika.

What're you saying?

What?

I've no reason to save him.

This mask can only erase one other person's existence.

You—

Prez...!

Well, we're done here.

Don't think bad of me.

I will, like crazy!

Help us!

I'll let you touch me in return!

I'm not into children.

Please...!

Please take care of Prez...

You're so selfless, kid.

You don't even know if you'll be alive tomorrow.

Himura!

Finally up?

How're you holding up?

Turn around.

Who knows what that woman will do to Yachi.

Yeah,

but it's none of my concern.

What?

The Families,

the Yachi household,

Fear-in-Cube.

I'm interested in how these three will interact with each other.

My job is to observe.

So this is all for your research?

Of course.

So...

So we're just tools.

Tools of that man.

We were the chief's tools to begin with.

Or parts, maybe gears.

Nothing has changed—

That's enough.

I've had enough!

I'm sick of this!

Sick of Yamimagari Pakuaki.

Sick of the Laboratory Kingdom.

Sick of you!

I'm sick of everything!

If I can't even save the man I love because of this,

then I won't know why I'm alive to begin with.

That's absolutely absurd.

I'm sorry.

I'm the only one.

You don't need to apologize.

So you got out of the Laboratory Kingdom?

I guess so.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

I'm pretty much all healed up.

I'm ready when you are.

Cow Tits,

I have a request.

Hit me.

I messed up.

I suspected Kuroe,

and I want closure.

Seriously?

Yes.

So be serious and hit me.

As you wish.

Wh-What are you doing?

I'll curse you!

Unfortunately, that's the most I can do.

We'll leave the rest of it to Kuroe-san.

What's done is done.

It's all about what we'll do next.

I know.

I'll do all I can, and sacrifice anything possible.

I will take back what I ought to.

Fear-kun, Konoha-kun.

If Yachi had a power, what do you think it would be?

Haruaki-kun's power?

But he's just a normal human.

Maybe the ability to never be cursed, and be a total perv?

Don't forget the ability to be kind, selfless,

and cook skillfully.

It's to have friends like us.

Like me, and both of you.

Good morning.

If we win, we're taking Haruaki back.

If you win, you can take me away.

This is what I've been waiting for, Fear-sama.

To be cursed, more and more by the moment,

until I'm beyond the reach of mankind.

Much like you.

Nobody wants to be cursed.
