Towa is probably the strongest supernatural in history.
Quon is invincible.
Then why isn't he here?!
Surrender.
Shun...
Please save us.
Quon-sama.
Password: Iconoclasm.
Death... is catching up to me.
Get out of there, Quon!
Why?
Why?!
What did you do with the kids you hunted?
You didn't!
I can see my mom.
Tei!
Kamishiro!
Don't take the kids!
Operation complete.
Releasing the perimeter and heading back.
This is HQ. Roger.
Check for action by any public institution.
Roger. Checking now.
The police and fire departments are on the move, but the situation is well protected.
Take care of everyone here.
Quon!
What are you going to do?!
I need... to get Towa and everyone else.
Wait.
Seiji!
Even if you go alone, you won't stand a chance against him.
We have to do this together.
We need a plan.
Towa's at Custos Headquarters!
How do I get in?
Please tell me!
It's going to be difficult.
I can download the location of their headquarters,
but I can no longer manipulate their security system very easily.
When we did maintenance on you the other time,
we obtained some data.
Maybe we can use it to hack into their network.
If I access their security system from the inside, maybe I can pull it off.
Ryou, can you do that for me?
Sorry.
I'm the one who should be sorry.
I kept quiet about Towa.
No, you were protecting me.
Thank you.
Um...
What's going on, exactly?
A long, long time ago,
mankind viewed abilities like the ones you have as nothing special.
But... due to a mutation, the supernaturals became the minority.
Eventually, the non-supernaturals started to oppress them.
The non-supernaturals displayed excessive fear about supernatural abilities.
Youkai, mononoke, other spirits...
Quon's tribe was demonized in countless way.
They were chased away from civilization and had to live in secrecy.
That sounds just like Fantasium Garden.
Ever since, Quon's tribe has strictly forbidden the use of its powers,
fearing that would lead to wars.
Then what happened?
Generals and nobles have a long history of hunting youkai and monsters to burnish their reputations.
That night... the night of the annual festival...
the people of the town attacked our village.
And that started everything?
For whatever reason, Towa sealed himself in a crystal,
and Quon became immortal.
Later, my ancestors found Quon alone at the site of the massacre and took him into custody.
Something's been bothering me ever since I was a child.
Why doesn't he wake up?
Is he unable to forgive himself?
I'll go too!
You're going to save Towa, right?
I'll go too.
We need to get Tei and that blockhead as well.
Yuri...
Me too!
Takao-san was really impressed when I put up a force field.
So me too!
Everyone...
I'm sorry.
Chapter 6 ｢The Endless Eternity」
You can't sleep?
Yeah.
My grandma teaches dance.
It's amazing.
She can make anyone dance beautifully.
I like this song.
Thank you.
My mom and dad wrote it.
I was very confused.
I didn't know why I had powers.
One day, I realized something.
My parents also had their own powers.
Writing songs, cooking delicious meals, or drawing pictures...
Those are also powers.
Everyone has their own special powers.
Towa...
I wonder... what your brother and the others are going through right now.
That night...
I was the only one not at the village.
I just wanted to be carefree and slack off.
I can use this as my excuse.
Damn.
I screwed up.
I couldn't protect anyone.
Not my people... Not Towa...
Towa had a benevolent heart.
One of these days, I'm sure we'll stop caring about our differences.
That day, I swore I'd never make the same mistake again.
I'm sorry for not telling you.
Don't be.
It made me happy...
that you told me about yourself.
Because you always felt so far away, Quon.
No matter how many hundreds or thousands of years you've lived,
I... I...
Ryou said he's ready.
This is a diagram of Custos Headquarters.
There are two signals: here and here.
Tei and Towa?
I think so.
I'll guide you once we get in.
That Kamishiro guy hasn't said anything yet.
Isn't this just a prison?
Hey, can we really see our parents?
Hey, Takao-san?
Shut up.
Shut up. Shut up. Shut up!
90 seconds until we start.
Security system down.
Unlocking the gate.
What's this?
What's going on?!
No way!
Did they detect my intrusion?
Hizuru!
I'll take care of things here.
You guys go ahead.
But...
I have my own scores to settle.
Go!
Are you done yet?
She's connected now.
But... she's not mentally stable, so it might not work as planned.
I don't care. Just do it.
Roger.
Don't try to resist.
It'll only increase your pain.
Yuri, go on ahead!
This won't help me figure out where everyone is!
We'll just have to look everywhere we can.
Leave it to me.
I don't want to fight you.
You saw the kids yourself.
They're all normal people!
They disrupt order.
They disrupt order, and that makes them evil.
Hizuru.
Quon-sama...
Everyone...
Increase the output.
That will put her in danger!
We've never cared about their lives.
R-Roger.
I just heard Tei.
Yeah, me too.
It's this way!
Why do you refuse?
Why won't you awaken?
We can't stop Insania.
Permission to use GA Avian.
Roger, permission granted.
Shun...
I regained my heart.
And... you too...
Right?
You... too...
Hizuru!
You're in the way!
This ends now!
Why?
Don't get me wrong.
I've owed you since our first battle.
Now I can rest.
Hizuru!
Insania has infiltrated the Central Tower.
Heading due west through Area 313.
Towa, where are you?
Towa!
Taka-bou...
Towa!
My goodness.
I had no problem bringing him here,
but look how fast it's growing.
Kamishiro!
This place won't last much longer.
Still, Towa has awakened, luckily.
With his power in my hand...
I don't have any reason to stay here.
He'll never be yours!
Whoa there.
Nii-san...
Towa...
Towa!
No, Nii-san!
Towa! Towa!
Takao-san?
What do you think you're doing?
C-Come with us!
You're done sneaking around!
Is that Kamishiro's order?
Do you seriously believe his words?
He's the very man who's been chasing us all this time!
I'm going home.
I want to go back home.
For that, I'd...
Takao-san...
For goodness sakes...
Move! I need to go save Tei!
No!
Taka-bou!
Stop!
Will that Kamishiro guy really make our parents happy too?
Will the man who's been killing us really make us happy now?
Will he, Takao-san?!
What?
Insania is still...
What's going on?
The system's going down.
It isn't due to an attack or physical damage.
Main server inaccessible.
What's going on?
I'm back online.
It looks like something happened to their system.
HQ, do you copy?
HQ!
Anything?
Nothing. There's no connection.
We've lost communications with the Operations Team.
System unrecoverable.
All system authority has been transferred to Ordo?!
What?
What's this?
I guess the Council has started to take action.
Bang. Bang.
So you'll fight death and live to suffer?
Wh-What'll we do?
Guys, can you hear me?
Ryou!
Good. You're all safe.
Well, not exactly.
Calm down and listen to me.
That facility's self-destruct sequence has been activated.
Self-destruct?
What do you mean?
I don't know who initiated it,
but because the system there is down, it was probably activated from the outside.
Still, thanks to that, I'm online again.
Takao-san.
What's going to happen to us now?
We're gonna drown at this rate.
I want to see my parents.
Takao-san.
God damn it!
Guys, get close to me.
And you guys too!
No! You can't take all of us at once.
Just come!
I... was an idiot.
Let's go.
My legs are gone!
Takao-san!
That's because you tried too hard.
Shut up!
Tei!
Tei! Talk to me!
Do you recognize me?
Yuri...
Yuuma-kun too.
Thank you.
What the hell is this?
Are they going to destroy the entire place?
I see.
I guess they have no use for us anymore.
I'll do it.
Guys, gather around me.
Not in your current state.
You'll break your neck or your spine next!
It's the least I can do for my stupidity.
I put everyone in danger.
Aren't you going to see your family?
We're getting out alive, for sure.
And I mean all of us.
I found one!
Yuri, I've found an escape route.
Got it. Thanks!
Where are Quon and Shun?
Tei, I need a favor.
Can you tell everyone?
Everyone?
We can't go through this door.
It's already filled with water.
What about the emergency hatch?
It's locked. We can't open it.
What was that?
Something just...
Unable to stop self-destruct sequence.
The timer's been activated.
All emergency routes have been locked as well.
Unable to find an escape route.
The Operations Team is also trapped.
What can we do?
What was that?
An escape route?
Is this... a larva's voice?
We're at G_006!
Then take a right.
Take a right at G_006...
Should we trust that voice?
The information is precise.
If we follow the cracks the destruct sequence has caused,
we can get to the surface.
As of right now, we're abandoning the base!
Everyone, make your escape!
This way!
That way is blocked.
Take a left at the blockage and go up the stairs.
The stairs at B_204?
What should we do?
It could be a trap.
That way's blocked.
I think we can trust them.
Let's move!
Nii-san...
Towa!
Nii-san!
I'm coming.
It's too late.
Soon, I will have Towa inside me.
Stop.
Stop!
Towa!
Hurry!
Stop!
Make a turn right there.
Oh, my God...
Even if we get past this debris, the gate on the other side is already locked.
Ryou!
All the other routes are under water from that explosion.
That gate is the only possible way out.
No...
I'll do it.
No, it's too dangerous.
But!
I'll do it.
I've always been running.
From this power...
and from the people with this power.
I couldn't protect Lisa.
Not even close.
In fact, I killed her with my own hands.
If I'd been able to protect her instead,
she could've chased countless dreams...
and perhaps created a happy family.
But I ended her future...
with these very hands.
Now I'm through with running.
I'm moving forward.
There's nothing to fear or feel embarrassed about.
Mankind has the potential to do anything,
and your powers are undoubtedly a part of humanity's potential.
So nothing can stop you from moving forward.
Shun-san!
The younger brother wakes up to his older brother's shouts.
You did just what I expected you to do.
Now, Towa will literally become mine.
Sto—
Nii... Nii-san!
Towa!
Nii-san!
Shoot!
Yuri! Tei!
Can't we save them somehow?
It's obvious that Ordo is pulling the strings here.
If what we're doing is also part of their plan,
then we can't just take action carelessly.
No...
Everyone, please be safe.
Yuuma-kun!
You saved us.
Thanks.
Nice going.
This is nice.
I feel more powerful than I'd expected.
Give him back...
Don't shame my brother.
This isn't the world Towa wanted!
You won't have your way!
I see.
If we can't see eye to eye,
then you're just a nuisance.
Quon!
What's going on?
The commander... is a larva?
Now, let's get this concert underway!
Yuuma-kun!
Tei?
Get a hold of yourself, Tei-san!
Takao-san!
Stop!
But...
Don't worry.
Just calm down.
If you stay strong, you'll be able to control it.
No! Stop!
Don't shoot!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
By pairing up powers, I can create an infinite amount of abilities.
Towa...
Everyone...
I...
failed... again.
toki wa kimi wo michibiku
Time guides you

The future is vast
Everyone...

Time ticks in circles,

But days move on,
I see.

quietly but surely
Then...
I need to do better!
I can do more!
You're so persistent.
Quon!
What a nice piece of art.
Why don't you try something new?!
Quon!
Quon-sama!
This is the limit of your power.
At last... I can touch you!
Towa.
You're still alive.
I'm sorry for keeping you waiting.
I wasn't... I wasn't mentally strong enough.
No, Nii-san.
I'm the one who needs to apologize.
That day, I awakened your powers by force.
I'm the reason our village was attacked.
As the massacre proceeded, fear engulfed me.
Then, I just tried to protect myself.
Everyone feels fear!
There's no reason for you to feel guilty!
That's not it!
I called for you in my heart.
I couldn't do anything.
I couldn't save anyone.
So I gave you all of my burdens.
I sullied your hands with blood.
Because I was a coward!
Then... there's only one thing we need to do.
Let's settle our millennium old business together.
I'm going to monopolize all the power!
Thank you.
Towa!
Don't go!
Towa!
No...
It's all mine!
I-I'm also a larva!
I'm one of you.
You... You protect your kind, right?
Quon, did you kill people?
You liar!
Murderer!
No...
Stay back.
Terminal destruct sequence has been properly executed.
Good.
We didn't foresee that Kamishiro would be a larva.
We can't disregard Kannazuki's actions either.
After all these years, we now face a new problem.
We need to define a new order.
Who defines order and enforces it across the globe?
We, Ordo, do.
Please carry him over here.
Excuse me.
Can I have a few words with you?
We were just desk workers.
I'm completely at sea about what happened.
Right. Please bear the pain for a bit.
Ow.
Guys!
We're here to pick you up!
Where's Kiri-chan?
She's watching the house with the kids.
I'm glad you're all okay!
You did great.
Thank you.
Don't you dare touch me!
Who do you think I am?
We're just going to treat you.
This is going to be difficult.
Where's Quon?
Quon saved us.
It was amazing.
He was even faster than Takao-san's teleportation.
Quon.
D-Don't tell me...
Towa set me free...
from a spell, at long last.
All this while, I'd been frozen in time.
Finally, I've been set free.
Feel Rock emotion! Burning Rock emotion!
