To Love Ru Darkness
It tickles, Dr. Mikado.
Is that right?
You have to wash your body squeaky-clean.
That’s what a young lady is supposed to do, Oshizu.
I can tell you’ve gotten quite comfortable with your body.
Now you’re ready to fall in love any time.
Is that how it is?
At any rate, I’m thankful that I’m able to live my life
like this once again although I’m a ghost.
You’re not the only one who’s thankful.
Thanks to you I was able to collect a sample of telepathic form.
“Telepathic form”?
It’s the psychic energy form that’s produced from the intelligent life over certain level.
In other words, it indicates the form like yourself.
The identity of what the advanced science of the universe considers “ghost”
has begun revealing itself little by little.
Because you’re an energy form,
overstraining your nerves too much could burn you out and eventually wipe you out.
So remember not to push yourself too hard.
Don’t worry! I’m not distressed over anything!
You’re right about that.
I’m sure you’re a stranger to that type of issue.
You’ve been staying up and doing the battle training again, Master?
You should sleep well and get some rest for a change.
I want to regain my sense, which has been deteriorating due to the peaceful life I’ve leading.
Besides, have you ever even seen me sleeping in this bed
ever since I picked you up at the junkyard?
Actually no, but that’s why I’m telling you this.
Also... Luna?
Yes?
Will you stop calling me “Master”?
Call me “Yami” from now on.
I can’t even remember the last time I had a goodnight sleep.
I don’t recall much about the past.
Because I’ve rarely looked back on it.
Although I remember everything that happened very vividly since that moment.
Miss Kujo, I know that you cared for Mikan the other day, so thank you so much!
Don’t mention it. I only did what I was supposed to do.
I have to go now. It may cause trouble if Lady Saki seems me talking to you.
Okay.
I’m glad that you were able to thank her properly.
Yeah. Thank you for setting that up for me.
So, what do you think about Kujo?
Huh? What do you mean by that?
What is that?
Don’t tell me that thing is...!
Yami, don’t touch that!
Yuuki? Yami?
Wh-What’s going on?!
Don’t get the wrong idea, Sairenji and Kotegawa!
I can explain!
Supposedly my sister’s invention malfunctioned
and as a result their hands are stuck together.
What? How did that happen?
It looks like Celine took it without permission.
How interesting! So you can’t separate them?
Our hands are like powerful magnets now...
I guess we have no choice but...
...to cut it.
Stop it!
Calm down, Yami!
She’s right! The magnetic force should eventually wear off as time goes by!
Are you telling me that I need to hold his hand until then?
That’s disturbing.
Hey, where are you going?
I’m going to get some taiyaki.
That’s my after-school ritual.
I’m coming, too!
I’m jealous of Yami.
How indecent!
I’m going, too!
Let’s go, Mea!
Sorry, Nana. It sounds like fun, but I’ve got stuff to do today.
Okay.
See you tomorrow then!
See ya!
Walking while holding hands is quite embarrassing...
I’m quite disturbed as well.
Okay...
Hey, Yami!
You’re with your boyfriend today?
Um, it’s not like that!
The usual please.
Coming right up!
Holding hands together, huh? What’s the deal?
I see you two in love!
Good luck with your boyfriend, you love bugs!
Taiyaki...
I’ll kill you if you eat it without my permission.
I know that.
I can’t believe he’s being flirty!
“Sticky-Stuck”... I completely forgot we had such an amazing item like that...
Rito...
We’re being watched!
But we can’t help it!
If I use it, too...
At any rate it was unusual for Mea not to come with us.
Considering her personality, I thought she would definitely stick her nose into this.
I’m so curious...
But I guess it’s best not to make a careless action while Rito and Yami are in that condition.
Yeah... Yeah...
Yeah... That would be great.
I just talked to Mikan. She said she would love you to have dinner with us.
She sounded really excited.
Thank you.
By the way, what were you like when you were a kid?
Please don’t get carried away.
It’s not something I should share with my target.
I guess you’re right.
It would be bad if I’m too full to eat Mikan’s food, so you must eat it too.
Yami, I see you’ve mastered how to chop that I taught you the other day!
Next.
Yes!
You can cut it into thin strips perfectly, too!
Next.
Yes!
Wow! Rotary cutting, too?!
I practiced hard.
This is impressive, Yami!
I’m glad to be your help, Mikan.
They’re working so well together! Yami seems to be enjoying it, too.
Thank you for the food!
I’m sorry that I gave you trouble, Yami.
It’s okay.
Well, make yourself home until the effectiveness wears off.
Thank you.
I should...
It tastes good!
Why would I do that?
Here.
I’ll kill you if you look.
Mikan.
What’s the matter, Yami?
I’d like to use your shower.
Shower?
You mean you’re gonna take shower with Rito?
It’s unavoidable at this point.
Why don’t you skip a day?
It’s my policy to take shower once a day.
You’re a little musty, so be sure to wash thoroughly, too.
And of course....
I-I swear I won’t look!
That’s wonderful! I’d love to help you!
No, you can’t do that, Momo.
I mean...
I’ll take shower together, too!
You?
That’s right. I’ll watch him.
Momo tends to be too easy on Rito.
You’re okay with that, right, Yami?
Understood.
What about what I want?!
How are we supposed to undress?
Why don’t we just cut it off?
I’ll sew them back together later with my trans ability.
Do not remove the blindfold, Rito!
I can still smell the scent of girls even with the blindfold!
I’ll wash your back.
How did this happen...
Thank you, Princess Nana.
Just call me Nana.
Good!
Hey. I’m NOT going to wash you.
I-I know that.
Where’s the shower...
Here.
This texture is...
That’s my... tail...
What?
I’m sorry!
I don’t like nasty stuff!
No way...
Get out of here!
What the heck are they doing in there?
What’s wrong, Nana?
N-Nothing...
So you put the futon in the tatami room, Mikan?
Yeah, because Yami told me that a bed isn’t big enough to sleep with Rito.
Thank you, Mikan.
No problem. Lala said that the effectiveness of the item should wear off by tomorrow morning.
Make yourself at home!
Good night!
Are you sure you want to put them downstairs?
We can’t be down here right away if anything happens to them.
It’ll be fine. It’s Yami we’re talking about.
She’s not like you, Momo.
So she’d rather trust the most infamous assassin in the universe than me.
See you later!
Is that Mea?
No matter how you look at it she’s just an ordinary girl.
She doesn’t seem like a threat.
This may be a chance!
If I enter her mind as a ghost, I should be able to see what kind of person she really is!
Who would’ve thought I’d end up sleeping with Yami?
I was really nervous when I was alone with Lala,
but with Yami I feel different kind of nervousness.
Besides, my hand still remembers how it felt earlier...
Are you thinking about something nasty?
I’ll kill you immediately if you try to do something funny to me.
I wouldn’t do anything funny to you!
You can’t sleep, either, Yami?
I’ve never slept in peace ever since I became an assassin.
I could close my eyes, but I’m only resting my body. I try not to fall into deep sleep.
Because you never know when you might get attacked?
Yes. I could lose my life in a split second unless I’m always alert.
You must’ve been living your life in a very harsh world.
Now that I think about it, when I first met her...
I’m sorry.
What did you apologize for? About what happened in the bath?
That, too, but...
Remember I’ve said some cocky things to you before?
Of course my intention was serious and to give you advice.
But now that I think about it you must’ve been thinking...
“You don’t know anything so stop giving me lectures as if you were better than me.”
So, you know, I’m sorry.
Professor Tearju Lunatik...
What?
Holding hands with you reminded me of her today.
Why don’t I share an old tale with you?
This is inside Mea’s mind.
Please lick me some more! I love being licked!
What kind of picture is this? What’s going on in her head anyway?
I’d better go a little deeper.
Hopefully I can find something that’s related to her true identity...
What’s that?
You said you wanna know the whereabouts of Golden Darkness?
A cute little girl like yourself is a bounty hunter?
We do know where she is, but we’re not that nice to give that away for nothing!
We may tell you if you spend some time with us though.
Okay.
She’s just like Yami!
Jeez, they’re not nice people.
But they told me where I could find my big sister Yami.
They said she’s on Earth.
I wonder if this means that I don’t have to pretend to be a bounty hunter anymore.
You’re coming, right, Master?
Of course.
“Master”?
The person Yami and Momo have been trying to find out about!?
What kind of person is she?
If I could find out about it I’ll get great credit!
Why...?
You should stop now, Miss Murasame.
You’re the assistant of Dr. Mikado, correct?
“Telepathic form”, huh? This is the first time I’ve seen it.
I guess it’s similar to my psycho-dive ability.
But you shouldn’t be inside of me any longer.
What?
I’m being pulled into the darkness!
Good for you, Miss Murasame.
You could’ve been destroyed completely if you came out of my body a second later.
Just who are you?
