Lingering Monologue
Is that...?
A Voidborn!
When did it appear? There was no sound, no presence at all!
It just went whoosh and popped out of nowhere!
Then it must have been summoned somehow.
Did you call it forth, Asmodeus?
Correct. Hardly a difficult feat for me.
I merely gave a little push to the embers I scattered earlier.
Don't tell me this is your plan...?
This world branched off in response to the young Wolf's lingering attachment.
Remove that attachment, and the problem resolves itself.
Then that thing... came from me?
Yoo. Mina.
Huh?! It can talk too?!
Guess it's not some ordinary Voidborn.
Why. Aren't you. Dead?
You owe. Your life. To another's death.
Living like that. What meaning does it have?
You bastard...!
How many. More people.
Must you devour. Before you are satisfied?
Damn it...! Why won't it budge?!
Don't lose your composure.
But it's spewing nonsense...!
The Captain's right, rookie. Cool your head.
You may have been the cause, but now, that thing is the very foundation sustaining this world.
That thing must be stronger than you think it is.
Don't push yourself, Mina. You can fall back if you need to.
Yeah! Omega will give that thing a good smack to fix it!
...No. It's fine.
In the end... this is something I have to finish myself.
Oh ho. At last, you are starting to behave like a proper Wolf.
Very well. I shall join in as well.
You too, Rosaria?
Weren't you just going to sit back and watch?
Hmph. I have changed my mind, acting servant.
Right. Let me teach you one more thing about me.
I despise pests that refuse to leave the stage once their part is over.
...To think the day would come when we fight side by side. The world truly is unpredictable.
Hmm. You do not look pleased. I, on the other hand, am enjoying this quite a bit.
Yoo. Mina.
Are you trying. To survive.
Again. By taking. Another person's life?
...Shut it, you monster.
I might've been drowning in regret back then.
Because until the very end... I couldn't protect anyone.
But being here taught me something.
That there are far more people I don't want to lose... than I ever realized.
And so...
You will be the one that's going down.
