"when many planets intermingled and the boundary between man and god was vague... a tale of love and rebirth." "1017)}Kyousou{\cHFCFDFB}gi{\cH000000}ga" "Someone in the employ of the Shrine shouldn't speak of destroying the world so lightly." "It's not that I don't care about the Shrine or the other planes." "I'm just wondering if there's some way we can work this out." "Let's All Think About What We Can Do!" "Chapter 25:" "The Present (19) / Inari A but our job at the Shrine is to act on behalf of God to maintain the balance in the planes." "Unified Planetary Organization {\cH737391}The Shrine and the dead outside the barrier." "This was all decided at the beginning." "The existence of a 13th planet violates the laws of the universe." "It cannot be allowed." "You were there." "You heard it." "Or did you just happen to forget it as you reincarnated your soul? but nobody said anything to me." "Stop this." "God can't be allowed to intervene." "Then how did the Looking Glass City manage to exist for this long? why hasn't it been a problem before now? so how was he able to create it?" "Why am I able to be here with my mom and everyone else?" "why is it possible?" "Chief Priest? I can't agree that this place shouldn't exist! I don't want to pretend it never existed." "I don't want to renounce the world I see." "and the world I've found." "Chief Priest." "I'm sure I..." "I won't be able to see anything anymore." "Koto..." "Koto!" "you're wonderful! the most blessed miracle of all!" "Sensei... what's gotten into you?" "Koto." "I'm God." "What?" "what do you mean?" "There's something that's always bothered me." "too." "and our dad. so he hid himself away and left me and the Chief Priest with a ton of work." "I can't really blame him." "We were basically created by him." "so we'll do what he wants." "And it's not like there was anything else to do." "The Chief Priest created subcontractors to control and unite the worlds." "I helped him at first." "and it was a job worth doing." "This was before it was even given the name "Shrine." "There were these huge lizards back then!" "It was a fun time." "I liked it." "it came to an end. and my older brother and I spent our days just doing our jobs." "as you know. but I was a little different." "it was interesting. strange orders would arise that we had nothing to do with." "Don't you think that's weird?" "but things we knew nothing about were happening on their own. things simply got beyond our control." "and nothing ever worked out. we didn't even know what "worked out" meant anymore." "it all seemed stupid to me." "There was no way I was going to like my brother." "So I decided I would do whatever I wanted." "of course." "wasn't I?" "Brother?" "Dad?" "You don't usually talk this much." "How could I keep quiet?" "my job from the start was the creation of life." "So something being born from somebody besides me was a little bit of an accident." "I thought it was disgusting." "to put it mildly." "The idea of another me coming out from another person made me sick." "and yet not me!" "And the rules of life meant that there was no way to change this." "don't you think? everything happens as God wills it. so wonderful!" "Koto!" "I decided that if this wonderful girl I would entrust her with the wish that I couldn't fulfill for myself!" "you've grown beyond my wildest hopes and dreams!" "you are the other me that I wanted! and show me the answer." "Kyousou{\cHEAFEF5}gi{\cH000000}ga" "Chapter 26:" "The Present (20) / Inari B" "What are you thinking?" "Just what she said."

"That which shines and so is divine." "Your light will make a crack in this twisted world." "Are you really the priest?" "Were you surprised to find yourself with a little sister?" "Isn't Koto cute?" "You didn't come back to us?" "We're not going to all live here together?" "I've been waiting for you to come back." "This whole time. and then..." "And then it could all be over." "But..." "You haven't used them?" "I left them for you." "I was just holding on to them!" "It's always been like that." "these beads..." "I didn't want any of them!" "I'm sick of your whims ruling my life!" "Didn't you promise that this would be the last time?" "!" "bringing the beginning and the end." "But all you ever bring is the end." "Koto!" "You're exactly right." "All I've brought with me today is the end." "So why don't you be the beginning?" "Everyone is here!" "Myoue!"

"What is my father thinking?" "let's get out of here." "If only I had my remote control... then what?" "Does it matter anymore?" "What else can we do?" "nothing will change." "It'll just get worse." "Even Koto's gone crazy." "Now what do we do?" "Myoue." "It might be easier for us if we just stay buried." "Myoue!" "Wha—" "Enough." "How long are you going to sit there and sulk?" "Don't expect anything from others. your world never will." "Stop brooding over a past that's dead and gone." "created to make you feel better." "right?" "Myoue!" "Myoue." "The Council of Three was simply a cradle for you until you accepted that." "You must leave this comfortable womb... don't you?" "Myoue!" "Don't look down." "Myoue." "The task you must do isn't in the past." "Look straight ahead." "Go forward." "Don't worry." "Your past won't disappear." "Yakushimaru." "You're late." "I'm sorry." "But I brought all the repair materials that were left." "let's go!" "too." "fake monk." "that is." "I'll go on ahead." "You can do what you want." "it's brighter outside than in a hole..." "Kind of funny." "I wonder? our boat lingered dreamily... pleased a simple tale to hear. slain by cold autumn frosts. that girl beneath those skies?" "Yase?" "Look at that light!" "It's so pretty!" "Can you go get it for me?" "No." "That's a shame." "You should stop sitting there and run—" "Run where?" "It's fine." "I like this place." "is all." "What about you?" "Why are you here?" "It just happened that way." "I see." "do you?" "Yase... but you never wanted this city to die." "I never minded you being Myoue." "dreaming as the days go by." "and all that is left are dreams. lingering in the golden gleam." "what is it but a dream?" "Thanks." "Koto!" "You're crying again?" "You cry a lot more than I'd have thought." "actually." "Myoue..." "Hey." "Myoue?" "Myoue!" "what do I do?" "The world's going to end and it's my fault!" "it won't." "I won't let it." "Probably. there was something he left us besides his promise." "The power of creation that he had." "Myoue..." "I don't want it to just end like this." "I'm sorry I said you were the end." "you are my beginning."
