Harvest: Why do you flee,
Black Reaper?
Is my powers's resonance blasting things away
That horrible?

Harvest: Who are you afraid of involving?
Just like then--
FX: Slam

Harvest: Then in that case why did you bring them along?
Why didn't you cut them loose?
------------
!!! page 04
Harvest: I knew you in South America.
FX: Sudden
Harvest: Back then you were more cold-blooded and merciless than anyone, a killing machine.
Literally Death.
That's what you were.
Now that you've become a contractor,
FX: Air moving
Harvest: Why do you walk the opposite road?
FX: Slam
FX: Whoosh
FX: Whoosh
Harvest: Is that
The true nature of what you have that I don't?

Kiyoko: Does that man intend to destroy the whole building?
------------

Kiyoko: Well,
Since I have the flowers, even if that happens, my body will be protected.
Besides,
The wind and the shock just now have made all the remaining seeds fly with a good feeling.
In the wind's direction, first is…
Yokohama.
Azusa: !
Kiyoko: Yokohama will be engulfed in chaos.

Kiyoko: It's not just the wind bearing the seeds.
With fear as the trigger, there will be individual variation in the time until awakening--that's the incubation.
People's movements will further increase the flowers' dispersal.
By car,
By boat,
By airplane.
------------
!!! page 09
Kiyoko: The flowers' dispersal cannot be stopped.
The world and the flowers will become one.
And everyone will know my existence.

Azusa: Stop!
You said you promised, so this…
Kiyoko: A promise alone isn't a reason. As a countermeasure against this ability's price…
With many more people knowing, I can preserve this existence longer.
Or do you think that it would be better if I disappeared again?
Azusa: No…
But…
Kiyoko: There is already so much solitude.
------------
!!! page 11
Kiyoko: Not being known by anyone, not even understanding yourself,
Within the darkness, only thoughts turning around.
Those thoughts are now…
Azusa: …But will this really make everyone know you?
Think about it!
Kiyoko: ……
Azusa: One-sidedly peering at your heart, damaging and manipulating it--
But no one can touch your heart,
Or be told anything.
That's just pointless!
------------
!!! page 12
Azusa: …I can't remember now, but
I understand the huge size of the hole that all of Kyou-chan's memories have become.
My…happy memories are almost all full of holes…
And all of my difficult memories.
If I can make them return, I want to.
With your current plan, they were forgotten, and the hole won't open up…
It won't be noticed, either.
You'll be come even more alone.
Though my own existence isn't much to me,
The Kyou-chan who was inside me…
She wasn't like you now in the slightest!
------------
!!! page 13
FX: Whoosh
FX: Slam
Azusa: Augh!
FX: Slump
Kiyoko: You don't remember anything, so don't just say whatever.
Are you saying that you understand anything about the real me?
FX: Snaking around
------------
!!! page 14
Kiyoko: I know all about how you thought about me.
I said that even though I assembled this body, your memories were necessary too.
That is one aspect of me that I don't know.
The awful parts and all were necessary.
You disliked a lot of things about me.
It was a bit of a shock.
There were things about you that I disliked too,
But I couldn't believe you thought about me that way.
FX: Pressing and rolling
Azusa: Aaauugh!
------------
!!! page 15
Kiyoko: You made fun of my way of running, said it was weird.
FX: Rolling
FX: Shuddering
Azusa: Tha…that hurts!
Kiyoko: I hated your stupidly thick porny legs.
And your pride in their appearance.
That good-for-nothing was tempted by these legs too, right?
FX: Squeezing

Harvest: I know what you're thinking.
Adjusting the electric shock without influencing the circuit…
By hitting me, you'll give me damage…
FX: Crumble
Harvest: But it's pointless.
Even if you're wearing electricity, you won't be able to completely prevent the decomposition.
FX: Slam
Harvest: As much as wheat flower is ground up as most as possible by a pumice stone,
All the more your power won't adjust for it.
FX: Falling apart
Harvest: Give up.

These should be fine for gliding and landing.
FX: Rustling
Kiyoko: I don't want to lose this body as well, like that time at the tower.
