starladyI've been meaning to pick up another manga now that TRC is over. It's looking like it's this one. I'll try to get to chapter 10 sometime soon.

Azusa: Ah ha ha ha!
Look!
FX: Whizz!
Azusa: I’m flying this high!!
FX: Thump
Azusa: I’m going now, Coach.

Chapter 09: Parcel and the Champ
------------
!!! page 04
Parcel: Waugh…
FX: Squeeze
FX:
Parcel: Stop!
Put me down!
Hei: You’re a contractor too, huh.
The guise of a kid screwing around…
Did you think you woudn’t be noticed in that standout form?
Parcel: …Screwing around in a guise?
You’re the only one who hasn’t been told this, huh.
Because it’s my payment, I have no choice…
Hei: Your payment is to have ears put on your head?
…….
Parcel: That’s right…
I’m not wearing this because I like it, am I?
Isn’t your mask the same thing?
Hei: Talk!
Whose spy are you?
Are you a friend of Harvest?
Parcel: N…No!
I’m one of PANDORA’s contractors too, but friends with a guy like that…
------------
!!! page 05
Hei: PANDORA…
So it’s the Syndicate’s instigation…
Did you come for information on the destruction of Saturn’s Ring,
Or to eliminate me, the traitor?
FX: Jerk
Flapping
Parcel: Augh!
Wait, wait!
There’s no meaning in dropping me…besides,
…Don’t you care what happens to that Doll
You’re always bringing along with you?
Hei: !?
Yin!?
FX: Shake
Hei: What happened to Yin!
Parcel: You’re a careless guy, leaving a Doll alone….
Did you think that she’d never be exposed, always staying in the same place?
------------
!!! page 06
Hei: Shi…
FX: Swift
Hei: Yin!
Yin! You all right?
FX: Crackle
Yin: …Hei.
Hei: Yin!
Yin: …Someone’s come.
Toprope: This BK-201’s Doll, Dash?
Dash: Looks like, Toprope.
------------
!!! page 07
Yin: ….
Hei: Run, Yin!
Take the route I told you!
Parcel: She can’t run, can she?
She’s a Doll.
Dolls can’t move of their own will.
Yin: ….
Toprope: Seems there’s an escape route.
FX: Flash
Dash: It’s useless.
Right?
FX: Whiz
------------
!!! page 08
Yin: If the programmed route is blocked, that’s the end.
FX: Crunch
Dash: She’s a Doll after all.
Hei: Yin!
Toprope: It’s an easy job.
FX: Uncoiling
FX: Flash
Toprope: If I hang her high with my rope
Afterward, that’ll be the end.
Dash: Don’t kill her by tightening it too much like before, Toprope.
FX: Snaking movement
Toprope: Yeah.
Yin: ….
Hei: …Why are you targeting Yin?
She has no connection to this.
FX: Jerk
Parcel: It was decided that taking a hostage was the easy way of fighting you!
That’s why you’re careless!
Hei: Contact your friends and tell them to stop immediately!
If you don’t…
FX: Flash
------------
!!! page 09-10
Parcel: Stop?
My friends?
If I do that, you’ll be the one to regret it.
Hei: What?
Yin: Hei!
Hei: !
FX: Snaking movement
Yin: I’m fine.
FX: Crunch
Toprope: !!!
FX: Grating
Toprope: !!?
FX: Quick
------------
!!! page 11
Champ: Target protection program, protection candidate, 1.
Elimination candidates, 2.
Confirm.
Dash: What’s with this huge guy…
A contractor?
Toprope: Does it matter?
My rope is more than two tons!
FX: Howl
FX: Whip
Toprope: I’ll slap him against the wall I hurl him into!
Champ: Execute.
FX: Crunch
Jerk!
Toprope: What!?
Augh!

Yin: There.
FX: Rustle
Hiss-snap
FX: Click-hiss
Hiss

Dash: -choke-
FX: Thump thump thump

Dash: ….
FX: Meaty thump
FX: Hiss
Champ: Elimination complete.
Hei: ….!
Parcel: Well done,
Champ.
Take her to the safehouse like that.
Hei: …..
FX: Sudden
Parcel: Woah!
------------
!!! page 15
Hei: What is the meaning of this?
FX: Cough cough
Hei: Who are you guys?
Parcel: Shit—Cut me some slack…
I said it, didn’t I? I’m a contractor from PANDORA.
Champ is one of PANDORA’s experimental Dolls, loaded with corporeal adaptation and combat programs.
Hei: You said a Doll?
Parcel: Yes.
Champ: We’re moving out.
Yin: ….
Parcel: A Doll will take surgeries and combat training that a normal person couldn’t bear without question or complaint.
It’s the perfect soldier.
Since the cost is extreme and Dolls with good builds like Champ are rare, it seems it’s been mothballed, but—
…Don’t worry. Our safehouse is more secure than your place.
Hei: Why did you save Yin?
What is your goal?
------------
!!! page 16
Parcel: Time’s short, so I’ll speak quickly.
There is a faction within the Syndicate trying to obtain the power of the black flower.
Right now they’re daring to let Harvest run loose and are watching the evolution of the black flower.
Hei: ……
Parcel: Their goal is the development of the perfect soldier at a lower cost.
From their point of view, since you’re trying to get rid of Harvest, you’re in the way too.
Hei: …Substitutions for contractors!
Parcel: Who knows.
Anyway, our goal is to stop their plan.
Saving you and your Doll…look.
It’s often said that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?
Hei: …..
Aren’t you members of the Syndicate too?
Parcel: Well, different factions?
------------
!!! page 17
Parcel: Thanks to you destroying Saturn’s Ring, the Syndicate isn’t monolithic anymore either.
FX: Creak
FX: Vong
Parcell: Well, it doesn’t matter to me.
Hei: …Hmph.
FX: Wong
Ong
Parcel: What will you do?
I’m going to follow that woman who flew out of here earlier.
I can bring you along with this power of mine.
FX: Whining
Parcel: If you give me a hand, that is.
Your legs can’t catch up with that, can they?
Hei: …You talk pretty for someone who seized Yin…
Brat.
FX: Grab
Parcel: -snicker-
I like adults who catch on quick.
FX: Voo—
------------

FX: Whoosh
FX: Bam bam bam
Screech
Man: ……
Here’s fine. Let me out.
Driver: Sir!
Man: They failed to secure BK-201’s Doll?
Driver: Yes…
FX: Rustling wind
Man: Capture the awakened before him no matter what.
Driver: Sir!
Blondie: There was some kind of crazy noise over there.
Shortstuff: Yeah.

Polo shirt: An accident?
Hey, I’m Buddha!
Blondie: Well, it doesn’t concern us, right?
If they die by their own carelessness.
It’s close.
Polo shirt: Man, they’re slow.
Though they were all prepared for the video and convenience stores.
You’d think they’d been abducted in a van.
!!! page 20
Polo shirt: What if that Kyouko got frightened and betrayed them?
Blondie: …Geez.
She’s useless,
That damn bitch.
Azusa: Who’s a damn bitch?

Guys: !!?
Big guy: …Oh! She’s—
The girl Kyouko was supposed to bring!
Azusa: I won’t forgive you insulting my friend.

Blondie: What’s up with this girl?
Why did she come alone?
Polo shirt: And what’s with that outfit?
You trying to get killed?
Huh?
