You're amazing, Raishin!
I can't...
Quit making those weird sounds.
You're going to get me branded as a freak.
Uh...
What's with this bizarre fetish play?!
You strung this girl along, then strung her up!
You've been with me the whole time!
I took my eyes off you for about 0.3 seconds in the changing room!
That's not enough time to seduce a girl.
What are you doing in my room?
That dog's an automaton, isn't it?
Wait, did you get caught in your own trap?
Was that... a honey trap?!
There was no "honey" anywhere.
There was, too!
You were about to fall for her panty shot strategy!
If you like panties that much,
then look at mine instead!
Knock it off!
Um...
Thank you for saving me.
I made you lunch as a token of my gratitude.
So you two really are lovers?
What makes you think she'd have a thank-you present already?!
It's such an obvious trap!
I'm a really good cook.
That doesn't really matter, you know.
What the hell did you put in this thing?!
Sleeping powder—
I mean, I couldn't find any sleeping powder,
so I put in lots of salt instead.
Those two are nothing alike!
In the first place, who wouldn't notice the taste before... swallowing... this down?
I've caught a dreadful chill.
Could you warm me up?
It is a honey trap!
Look, what exactly do you want?
T-To...
assassinate you.
My burning passion absorbs all my pain

Are you serious?
She said she wanted to assassinate you, and you just let her go?
White hair and a dog?
That has to be Frey,
a third-year.
Codename: Silent Roar.
Ranked 99th.
She's going to be your first opponent.
She must've realised how strong you are,
and figured she had to take you out before the Evening Party.
You may be ranked 100th,
but you beat Felix.
You've got everyone quivering in their boots.
Oh, speak of the devil.
What on earth... is she doing?
Looks like... she's setting up a cage.
Hold on, is that supposed to be bait?!
I can't believe she thinks I'd fall for that.
What is this nonsense?
Loki, the King of Swords!
Oh, so he's the Sacred Blaze?
You're still wearing those?
I believe I told you to pull out before you get hurt.
But...
Despite being a second-year, Loki's one of the Rounds,
and he's seen as one of the few able to take on the Marshal.
He and Frey look awfully alike.
Of course they do.
They're siblings.
Know your place, weakling.
Bow down to the strong.
As you wish.
Cherubim.
Command.
I'm a puppeteer too, you know.
Let's do this, Ravi.
Go.
I'm ready.
Ravi!
The Evening Party doesn't start until tomorrow,
Your Majesty, King of Swords.
Get lost.
I'd rather not.
Then die.
I'd rather not die either.
I'm a benevolent and tolerant guy.
However, there are three things I simply cannot stand.
People who order me around,
people who oppose me,
and...
Asians who don't know their place.
Great minds think alike, eh?
I hate haughty Caucasians, too.
Such a fool.
Don't you understand who you're up against?
You're the fool.
Most people who deem others to be fools are fools themselves.
I'll have you know I have a triple-A average across all my grades.
See? Only a fool would measure intelligence using grades alone.
Is that what you tell yourself to save what little pride you have left?
You're a truly pathetic fool.
You're the fool!
No, you are!
Cut it out!
That's enough.
If you wish to keep going,
then I'll join in on the fun.
Tyrant Rex?
Withdraw from the Evening Party, Second Last.
And stay away from the two of us.
I'd rather not.
Th-Thank you.
Why were you fighting?
Loki bears a grudge against me.
See you.
A grudge?
What program is she in, love?
History, if I'm not mistaken.
"Love"?
I'm not your wife!
Wife?!
Wife?
Looks like there's more to this than meets the eye.
Wife...
Wife?
What, you want to stick your nose into this?
Wife?!
You're on your own. I won't raise a finger to help you.
What?!
I'm your wife!
No, you're not.
Useless, the lot of them.
"She's got massive knockers", my foot!
Didn't you say you wouldn't help?
H-Hey...
Do you... like them big, too?
Like what big?
Are you stupid?
How can you not tell from the context?!
Br-Breasts.
I'm talking about breasts, obviously.
That doesn't matter once you fall for someone, now does it?
R-Really?
He's lying!
Raishin loves his bouncy bosoms, like what Frey has.
Yaya...
"Looks like there's more to this than meets the eye", huh?
You just got lured in by the bounce!
You damn freak!
How dare you determine a woman's value by the size of her chest?
You're horrible!
Yaya.
Yes?
Might you know what this dark feeling swirling within me is?
That vixen is to blame for trying to use her feminine wiles on you!
She was not!
She just wanted my advice.
You fool!
You're such a fool, Raishin!
As such, an unconscious puppeteer does not emit any mana.
However, it is possible to draw it out using a magic equation.
Raishin!
Who do you think I'm holding this supplementary class for?
The Evening Party is almost upon us.
Take this seriously.
Be that as it may,
aren't all the participants on equal footing?
Not in the least.
Since you're ranked 100th,
you're in the most difficult position.
The Evening Party is a royal rumble.
On the first night, the participants ranked 100th and 99th fight.
The battle ends at midnight,
but if one combatant can strip the other of their gauntlet, the gauntlet-less participant is eliminated.
Regardless of the result,
the 98th ranked participant will join the battle the following day, and so on.
In that case, all I need to do is avoid fighting until the final day.
That way, I can face the Marshal with a minimum of effort.
Oh, it's not that easy.
Only the higher-ranked participants can avoid battle in that way.
The lower-ranked participants are required to spend at least one hour on the battlefield per day.
The usual strategy is to eliminate your opponents as soon as you have the chance to.
Does Frey want to be Wiseman so bad she's willing to kill?
That way, you limit the number you have to face at once along the way.
It hasn't changed.
Everything's the same as I last saw it—
rotten to the core.
It's finally time for the Evening Party, is it?
I have high hopes for you.
Me?
Not Loki?
That kid's special, so you shouldn't develop an inferiority complex.
I understand your talents better than anyone.
Along with how much hard work you've put in.
I have a gift for you.
U-Um...
Father, what about our promise?
Of course I remember.
If you hold up your end of the bargain,
we can all live together again.
Okay.
Dear me, Tenzen's outrageously gifted.
He's a truly superhuman prodigy.
He's the kind of man who only comes around once in a century.
I am certain he'll make the Akabane name resound around the world in due time.
Raishin, on the other hand...
Brother, wait!
Are you really leaving?
Become a fine puppeteer, Nadeshiko.
One even better than our brother.
Yaya!
How many times must I—
Raishin!
Are you under attack?!
It's not Yaya?
Who is this, then?!
What's the meaning of this, Raishin?
You wouldn't even let me on the bed!
Look!
This is an assassination attempt—
Bouncy...
That's not what you're supposed to be looking at!
S-Stop, don't!
Yeah, I want you to investigate Frey thoroughly.
I don't think I can handle much more of her nightly raids.
Your enemy's that formidable?!
I understand.
I'll inform Milady at once!
W-Wait...
Aren't you gloomy first thing in the morning?
I recalled a rather famous story about Frey,
so I went out of my way to come tell you.
Be grateful.
Thanks.
Have you heard of Divine Works?
It's a mechanics company that has been nominated to design the next line of automatons
that will be used in Britain's army.
They have the patent for the magic circuit "Sonic".
They're Frey's and Loki's sponsors.
Which means...
Ravi and Cherubim could be prototype designs.
But...
There aren't many nice rumours about them.
For example, they apparently bribed officials to push their patent through.
You don't need to hold back against people like that.
Smash them to a pulp.
Oh right, the Evening Party's tonight.
You aren't the least bit nervous, are you?
Whatever will be, will be.
Don't forget about the amulet, all right?
Thanks.
Sonic, huh?
Stop, Ravi! Down, boy!
Is something wrong with the magic circuit?
Ravi! Ravi!
Don't worry.
That was only a stun grenade.
Ravi!
See?
You're... hurt.
Sorry about this.
Do you always walk around with that stuff?
I keep getting hurt all the time.
You are a klutz, after all.
A klutz...
So what was that all about?
I'm sorry.
I'm not really mad.
You are.
I'm not.
Tell me what's going on.
Why must I be assassinated?
Let's annihilate them, Raishin.
Just give me the order to take them out.
I'll crush them until there's nothing left.
Make your decision.
You'll face true danger if this goes on.
You'll...
You'll be overwhelmed by those two lumps of fat!
You're wearing your heart on your sleeve, you know.
I'll massacre every single vixen that comes after you!
You're awful, Raishin.
You distanced yourself from me, and met with another woman in secret!
What part of that looked like a clandestine meeting?!
I nearly got killed here!
Raishin!
Long time no see.
Komurasaki?
Have you grown a little?
You can tell?
Want to feel for yourself?
Don't twist my words around.
I was talking about your height, not your chest.
I might grow bigger than my sister if you fondle me.
Stop talking about breasts already.
And since I'm all grown up now,
I can even be your wife.
You're such a prankster, Komurasaki.
Your dear sister wants to have a chat with you.
Sit down here,
Komurasaki!
Try not to smash the floor.
Yeah.
If you don't tone it down, Raishin won't like you anymore.
Oh no...
Raishin, do you...
Well?
Shouko sent you here, which means we're going undercover, I take it?
Aren't you quick on the uptake?
It'll all be clear once you get there, basically.
Let's go.
I'm a government mule.
A spy, first and foremost.
I'll come too.
You can't.
I've been ordered to carry out this mission with Raishin alone.
N-No way!
Sit tight and wait for me.
O-Okay.
Komurasaki.
Okay!
Give me your mana, Raishin.
Pump me full of it!
Raishin...
I knew that nobody would be able to see us, but it still feels weird.
Everhaze's ability clouds the sensory information you send to humans' eyes, ears, and noses,
putting you in complete stealth mode.
We could get down and dirty right now, and nobody would find out.
Who are you, Yaya?
Look, Raishin.
Doggies!
Is this it?
It's empty?
No. Something's here.
How unusual to see you on your own.
So what did you want to talk to me about?
Sigmund, have you ever wanted to become an actual human being?
Hmm...
I take it that you do?
Human girls play too unfair.
If only I could be human, too, then I...
If you were a human girl,
you wouldn't be able to protect Raishin the way you do.
You're a top-class automaton.
What he needs isn't some ordinary girl you could find anywhere.
He needs someone like you.
Do you still wish to be human?
I...
I'm fine as a puppet.
Even if he doesn't see me that way,
I'll prove useful to Raishin.
Even if he gets hung up over some human girl and never pays me any attention...
Even if he holds hands with vixens...
or kisses them...
Yeah, I can't come to terms with this!
You're extremely human-like, and Raishin does treat dolls as equals.
It pains me to say this, but I believe the reason you haven't won him over
is because your own human nature is a tad warped...
