Virus symptoms—

begin

The next requested piece is the "Waltz of the Flowers" from The Nutcracker Suite.

Yo, Ivan, I've completed the orders.

Hey, Ivan, are you listening?

Hey!

Silence.

I can't hear Tchaikovsky.

Listening to the radio again?

I infected the intruders.

So, what's the boss's next order?

Our master instructs you to do what you can to escape.

No backup?

If I get caught, the virus will be lost, as well.

I have no intention of protecting anyone other than our master.

I'm in bliss.

I'd love to see your face the moment the bliss is gone, too.

The skin on my face?

If the master were to ask for it,

I would peel it off without a second thought.

You're completely nuts.

The are after me.

I'll see you on the surface.

Episode 37

Finally, a connection.

Dazai-san!

I trust that you're chasing down the gifted controlling the virus.

His virus infects the victim through open wounds.

The fever and nausea make it difficult to even just stand.

Don't let yourselves be so much as grazed.

I'll take care of Fyodor.

Don't let that gifted out of your sight.

****, I can't reach.

Weretiger!

Akutagawa!

Neither the wretched dog nor the weretiger live up to their reputations.

What is that?

Go faster than him!

Also, you're an uncomfortable ride.

Shut up.

Left!

Right!

What?

Forward!

Don't think. Just run, fool!

Shut up! You're not paying for this ride!

Got you!

You're too late.

Weretiger!

What is that?

Later!

He's getting away.

I'm so blessed.

My master, Fyodor-sama,

has tasked me with something more important than guarding him.

Rats in the House of the Dead Agent Ivan G.

Special Ability: The Precipice

Prepare yourself, weretiger.

We're going to take him down within a minute and go after the tram.

They're on the move.

Dazai-san, three cars just left the abandoned mines from the north.

Contact the surface team and follow them.

Ignore them.

Those are decoys meant to slow us down.

How can you be sure?

Because that's what I would do.

Understood.

Tanizaki-san, there's a cargo truck leaving from the west of the mines.

Is that the one?

No, it's not.

Ignore that one, too.

Now we're seeing several armed soldiers moving to the southeast.

They're escorting someone in a hood.

Ignore them.

But...

We're trying to capture a demon.

We need every hand we can spare.

Ignore them.

You're wasting your time.

My ability is to control earth.

No amount of cutting or crushing will defeat my stone giant.

Weretiger!

Don't forget that you're in the belly of my ability.

Even the ground you stand on is your enemy.

I'm impressed that you survived my blow, man with the ability of the weretiger.

It seems there'll be a lot of pain to be had before my bliss.

If we can't defeat the stone giant,

we have no choice but to go after the gifted himself.

But if this ground is in the field of his special ability,

even getting close will be difficult.

Then our only choice...

Akutagawa.

Yeah.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Of course.

How many times do you think we've tried to kill each other?

Stay put, sickly man.

Keep running, fool.

Give it up!

What?

This is...

Is he jumping on the black cloth of that ability to avoid touching the earth?

I can't tell where he is!

Got you!

An fully-enclosed defense using fast-spinning rocks.

If I can't tell where you're coming from, I just need to protect myself in all directions.

Now, wretched dog, it's your turn.

"Even the ground that you stand on is your enemy."

I'm afraid to say, those words have been directed at my enemies countless times.

**** it, using me as bait...

You're the one who charged in knowing you were bait.

Of course I knew.

How many times do you think we've tried to kill each other?

Let's go after the tram, weretiger.

Be my horse.

Come on, that's—

Weretiger!

A golem...

It's a fake!

This is the virus'...

My master brings joy to this godless world.

Evil is the one who stands in his way.

I've infected you with the virus through your wound.

I have no strength.

I won't be able to go after the tram, even if we beat him.

Dazai-san, there's a helicopter of unknown nationality approaching from the east.

We can't fight it off with our equipment.

Call for the military police to back us up.

A helicopter?

Is there anyone on the ground?

People?

There's what appears to be hiker at the base of the mountain.

He's wearing a hat, so I can't see his face.

That's the one.

Everyone stop the hiker.

Send Mori-san's men, too.

Immediately.

G-Got it.

Dazai-san, it wasn't him!

He's just an ordinary hiker handcuffed with grenades.

It's not Fyodor!

You two are strong.

There's no end to this.

I'll have you drown.

My body's sinking and I don't have the strength to escape.

Farewell.

Shit.

Weretiger.

Answer my question from earlier.

Why do you fight?

This isn't the time for that.

There's a way to escape.

A last resort.

But answer me first.

Why do you fight?

You know the answer.

Those who can save no one do not deserve to live.

You fight to escape your childhood memories and earn the right to live.

But I heard that your childhood master died.

He's not dead.

He's standing behind you right now.

He lives in my head now.

He keeps repeating the cursed words, "Do what is right."

I can't get revenge against someone who's dead.

That's far more brutal than my trivial death.

Hey!

If I'm a wretched dog, you're a wandering dog.

This is the solution.

Fight, and give me an answer.

If you still lose like this...

I'll never forgive you.

One of them is missing!

The whole ground's missing, space and all.

Teleportation...

He carved out space with his ability...

and moved!

Don't bother.

The stone he carved isn't recovering.

Only those who've tried to kill him

know that the tiger's claws can cut through the very fabric of an ability.

Thus, by expanding and contracting the space he detached

the same way he cut through my Rashoumon...

our abilities become a peerless sword against which

there can be no defense for physical armor or abilities!

Let's go, Akutagawa!

Obliterate him, weretiger!

Beast Beneath the Moonlight, Rashoumon!

Kokuto Zessou!

I made it out.

I win.

Fyodor and the Rats in the House of the Dead are all tools for my entertainment.

Weak men like me get away with anything.

The haves ought to die barfing.

See? Just as I told you.

What a simplistic escape route.

Far too predictable compared to Fyodor, master of phantoms.

I-Impossible.

Well, we were all put in mortal danger because of you.

Any thoughts?

Forgive me!

I'll disable the virus right away!

I'll turn myself in!

So please...

Good enough, then.

Yeah.

Let's forgive him.

Obviously not!

The virus is gone.

The mission was a success.

But...

Fyodor's missing?

He's nowhere to be found.

But he wasn't in the helicopter or the escape vehicles.

He must still be in his hideout.

But...

What's so funny?

I'm just so happy.

My master removed the part of me that feels grief.

Did anyone ever once guarantee that

capturing this base would lead you to my master?

What?

No...

Would you like more tea?

I think not.

Thank you.

He was never even here to begin with?

Impossible...

There are no connections to the outside world here.

We're monitoring cell phone communications with our hacking ability.

This place can't be operated from outside.

It's this music.

What?

The requests being made on all the music programs

are serving as a secret language to relay his orders.

Our communications make use of all the radio waves in the air.

No amount of hacking can stop us.

You'd lost from the beginning!

Atsushi, what's going on?

Kunikida-san...

What?

The rat is already outside the hole.

The "St. Matthew Passion" by Bach.

It seems my time's up.

They weren't nearly as formidable as I'd thought.

It looks like I'll be able to end them in my next move.

Hey.

Nice café, huh?

I've never seen you so shocked.

You want to ask how I found you here, don't you?

I really played my best card.

This is my best card. The one that caught the demon.

Long time, Rat.

Excellent!

Eyes of God?

That's right.

The inescapable eyes that integrate surveillance images from all over the city.

I used that power to find this place while you were distracted by your base.

He agreed to help us on the condition that we'd take back

the Guild's hidden assets, which you've swiped.

I have no interest in money once it's escaped me,

but my pride wouldn't allow me to leave it in the hands of rats.

We'll take it from here.

Is that all right, Dazai-kun?

Sure.

That's why I called you here.

Put your hands where we can see them.

Wait, don't touch him!

He's dead.

Try anything funny, and we'll shoot you on the spot.

Sure.

Let's go.

Detective...

Do you know what his ability is?

No, I don't.

This is bad.

Yes, it is.

It's bad?

We straight-up disobeyed the president's orders not to fight against the Port Mafia.

We could be axed.

We could?

I've never been axed before.

Y-Yeah...

Do you know what "axed" means?

I do.

Several people have been axed at my previous job.

Cleaning up after them was such a pain.

Forget it.

This kid doesn't know what the word means, either.

Look at all these snacks.

Ranpo-san.

You made it out of the mystery novel.

Of course.

I identified all 500 criminals.

Fancy-hat boy is still inside.

He gave up on the mystery novel and just started beating everyone up.

It's the president.

We'll accept any punishment in the fullest.

We'll determine your punishment later.

But I'm deeply grateful for your work on this matter.

Well done, everyone.

This is such a nice venue.

Yeah.

It's a beautiful ship.

Atsushi-kun.

Yes?

How was it working alongside Akutagawa-kun?

Awful.

I never want to partner with him again.

Why not?

We're just fundamentally incompatible.

He's short-sighted and...

In six months, I kill you.

Be well-prepared.

When we first fought on the ship,

I utterly despised you for how well-off you are.

But that's somewhat different now.

Until I defeat you, I can't move on.

Thus, I will kill you.

And what did you tell him?

I'm sure you can guess.

Sure, I have a vague idea.

All right.

But on one condition.

Don't kill anyone for the next six months.

There's something simple that you'll learn from that:

what it takes to win Dazai-san's approval,

and the fact that weakness and strength aren't what they seem,

and that you're really ahead of me already.

Very well.

I'll get stronger.

I'll ask Kunikida-san to teach me to fight,

and I'll train myself to control my ability better,

so I can brush off Akutagawa's strength six months from now.

That way,

I can be freed from the shackles of that man.

I figured that's what you'd say.

A mafia member who doesn't kill, huh?

You and Akutagawa-kun are both fighters.

Just like us.

Atsushi-kun.

What are we toasting to?

To the stray dogs.

To the stray dogs.
