"All right." "She's in a far too weakened state." "She wasn't this bad when she was brought in last time." "Nothing's shown up in her blood work." "I've never seen symptoms like this." "Hospitalize her and see how she does, then?" "Excuse me..." "Are you a family member?" "Uh, no..." "Excuse me..." "How is she?" "She will be okay, right?" "It's hard to say right now." "You can't mean that..." "Ama-san!" "A-chan!" "I apologize." "I was with her, and yet..." "The symptoms your daughter exhibits are completely unprecedented." "For now, all we can do is to counter her weakened state with IV therapy." "But if she remains in this weakened state..." "She might not make it?" "Further treatment will be determined after we look at the test results." "What kind of laid-back attitude is that?" "!" "N-Now..." "You are a doctor, aren't you?" "!" "If you are a doctor, please do something!" "Ri-chan..." "Pardon me." "Ri-chan, could I have a minute?" "Thank you, Ri-chan." "What?" "Bringing her to the hospital and everything." "It was a lot to deal with, wasn't it?" "It must have been shocking for you." "Oh, no..." "I Just do not understand what is going on." "Say, Ri-chan, do you love A-chan?" "I asked you before, too, I know." "So?" "Do you love her?" "I do love her." "Good!" "Then, I'll tell you." "What?" "Have you heard of project Yggdrasil?" "How do you..." "So you have heard of it." "Then, you also know what an experimental subject is, right?" "Yes..." "Say, Ri-chan..." "I'm sorry for keeping it from you." "Are you surprised?" "Could it be that you..." "This is a secret." "Don't tell anyone, okay?" "B-But the King of Devils said the first experimental subject was in an accident..." "Did he tell you that she'd died?" "I suppose that's not surprising." "I'd actually felt that it would've been fine if I'd died then anyway." "What?" "But why?" "Because I couldn't see a future for myself." "Back when I was in the world of devils, I had no family and every day was truly horrible." "So I wanted it myself." "To become an experimental subject." "I wasn't scared one bit of the experiment failing." "In fact, I was more afraid of continuing to live that life." "And then, when I came to," "I found myself in the human world." "It was before people knew of the existence of the world of devils, and I had become all alone again." "It was then that I met him." "Is that person Asa-senpai's..." "The person I admire more than anyone in the world." "The person you admire more than anyone in the world..." "A strong person, who protected me." "I am who I am today, because I had him." "I'd finally found a place where I belonged." "That alone would've made me happy, but I was also able to obtain a wonderful treasure." "The treasure called A-chan." "Then, Asa-senpai is a devil?" "No, she's human." "Just a normal human." "But she inherited two qualities from us." "My magic, intensified by the experiment, and his human body, which is far too frail to contain that magic." "Asa-senpai..." "Rin-chan..." "Asa-senpai!" "Thank goodness!" "Where am I?" "The hospital." "You collapsed at the apartment..." "I see." "Thank you." "So you've been here with me the whole time?" "I was so worried." "I'm sorry." "I'm fine now." "What the?" "You are not ready for that." "Come on, you must stay in bed." "What's gotten into me?" "I wonder if the move tired me out." "Right now, the magic that's been swelling in her is about to overflow." "But her body can't withstand that." "That's why." "That is terrible!" "Then, what can be done?" "There's Just one way to make her better." "She Just has to use up the magic in her body." "Oh, that's all?" "But you see, that's the biggest problem of all." "Asa-senpai." "What is it?" "Please use your magic." "I beg of you." "So you heard about it." "If you use up the magic in your body, you can be cured!" "Please use your magic!" "No!" "Asa-senpai!" "I don't want to!" "I'm never using magic!" "Besides, I can't, even if I wanted to." "Because I'm human!" "Now is not the time for such things!" "I'm human!" "Magic is Just..." "Asa-senpai!" "Yes?" "How many I help you?" "Please hurry!" "Asa-senpai is..." "Y-Yes, Sir!" "Asa-senpai, please hang in there!" ""We are closed for the day." "Hospital Director"" "Rin-kun." "Kaede." "Primula." "And Kareha-senpai, too." "We heard from Ama-san, so..." "I was so shocked when I also heard from her." "Um, how is Asa-senpai?" "Rin..." "She's sleeping soundly right now." "Don't worry." "She'll get better in no time." "It'll be okay." "Rin-kun..." "You must not let this consume you." "You are too kind and you have a way of taking on other people's burdens." "Kaede..." "Rin-kun, please take care of Asa-senpai." "I will." "It seems visiting hours are over already." "Shall we come again?" "Are you sure?" "Yes, since it was so sudden today." "Next time, we shall make sure to invite Sia-chan and the others as well." "Okay?" "Got it." "I'm sorry." "When you guys came all this way..." "We'll leave it to you." "Right." "Well, then, please excuse us." "You are the only one who can save Asa-chan." "Kareha-senpai..." "But I do not know what I can do for her." "There must be something that only you can do." "Something only I can do?" "Asa-senpai..." "What in the world can I do for you?" "They still haven't identified what's ailing Miss Shigure in 501?" "No." "She's suffering attacks more frequently, too." "I wish there was something we could do for her..." "With Just IV therapy..." "But there's nothing else we can do." "Thanks, Rin-chan!" "Shouldn't you be lying down?" "I'm fine!" "I'm feeling good today anyway!" "Never mind that!" "Juice!" "Juice!" "Oh, I'm taking the apple!" "What's wrong?" "Aren't you going to drink yours?" "Asa-senpai, please..." "No way." "I'm not using it." "But..." "If you're going to say things like that, I hate you." "I do not care if you hate me!" "If that will make you better, Asa-senpai..." "No "Asa-senpai"!" "Thanks for the Juice!" "What should I do?" "What can I do to save her?" "What?" ""No Visitors"" "I guess I'm making Sia-chan and Nerine-chan worry, too." "You should get better soon, so you can go to school." "Everyone is waiting for you." "I'm sorry, Rin-chan." "You've missed 3 days already, haven't you?" "It is all right." "Especially since Ama-san made special arrangements to allow me to visit." "But still..." "Besides, I was planning on missing school because of the move anyway." "That reminds me, I promised you I'd cook you a meal there, didn't I?" "You can Just do it the next chance you get." "Yup." "When I get out of the hospital, I'll cook you some delicious dishes!" "What do you want?" "If you are cooking, Asa-san, I would be happy with anything." "That's the hardest request, you know." "Let me think..." "Like hamburger steaks or casseroles..." "Stew could be nice, too, since it's going to get colder now." "Oh, it'd also be nice to go on walks before winter comes." "Just the two of us on a little path with autumn leaves dancing in the air." "Or something like that." "There's so much I want to do!" "What do you want to do, Rin-chan?" "Rin-chan?" "Oh, no, that is..." "Pardon me." "Come on!" "What're you apologizing for?" "Pardon me." "Don't worry." "I'm not going to die." "I promise." "Then..." "But I'm not going to use magic." "I might die if I don't use the magic, right?" "But I might not die, right?" "You cannot know that!" "Then, you can't say I'll die, either, right?" "Don't worry, because I have a dream." "A dream?" "Someday, we'll be an old man and an old woman, and when that time comes, we'll go again to that overlook." "That place where you confessed your love for me, marking a new beginning for us." "And I'm gonna get you to confess your love for me again." "We'll say, "Thank you so much for everything."" ""I look forward to spending more time with you."" "That's why I won't die." "Oh, yeah!" "How about we open the gifts?" "!" "Sorry, Rin-chan." "Would you go borrow something to cut with?" "Sure." "Oh, excuse me." "Could I borrow a pair of scissors or a box cutter?" "Oh, let me see." "Do I have something like that on me?" "Oh, found it." "Here you go." "Asa-senpai!" ""Surgical Ward Asa Shigure Dono Surgical Ward Masakazu Andoh Dono"" "It's happened again!" "Stabilizer!" "And oxygen!" "We have done everything possible, but at this point, her condition is beyond our abilities." "If things continue at this rate, your daughter's body will not hold up." "We can only rely on her will to live now." "Ama-san, at this rate, Asa-senpai will..." "Let's go, Ri-chan." "What?" "W-Wait..." "Where are you going?" "!" "Shouldn't you be staying by Asa-senpai's side?" "!" "Aren't you worried?" "!" "I am worried." "Then..." "There isn't a mother out there who wouldn't worry about her child!" "She's suffering so much!" "Of course, I'm worried!" "Ama-san..." "If I could take her place, I would!" "If it would make her all better, I wouldn't care what happened to me!" "Even if it meant my life, I wouldn't hesitate one bit!" "I've always... always felt that way." "No, and I always will." "But you see, who she needs right now isn't me, but you." "Me?" "Please save her!" "But there is nothing I can..." "It has to be you." "Only the strong boy that she admires can save her." "I am not strong at all." "Even now, I am unable to do anything..." "No, I think you know." "What only you can do for her..." "Something only you can do, because you put her above all else in your life." "Something only I can do..." "Please take care of A-chan for me." "Save her, Ri-chan." "Please." "I'm sorry for making you worry." "Cheer up." "I don't wanna see you looking like that." "Why?" "What?" "Why do you not want to use magic?" "!" "Why are you so adamant?" "You know, Mother's always got a smile on her face, but I've seen her tears Just once." "Why is my body like this?" "!" "Why am I different from everybody else?" "!" "Mother told me." "About how she's a devil." "About how she got transported to the human world because of a certain experiment..." "All of it." "I'm sorry!" "If I weren't a devil, you wouldn't have had to suffer like this!" "I'm sorry for being a mother like this!" "I'm sorry!" "I'm really sorry!" "It was the one single time I ever saw my mother cry." "The tears of the person that had always kept up her smile, no matter what terrible things I'd said..." "I realized then that I'd asked something I never should've." "And that this person loved me so much and that I had been hurting her so much." "That's why I'm human." "Just a human, who can't use magic." "I have no devil blood in me." "A normal child born to a normal mother and father." "I'm never going to bring grief to my mother again!" "I don't want to bring her grief!" "Asa-senpai!" "I'm not using magic." "No matter what happens." "Asa-senpai, I am sorry." "I do not know what to do." "I am sorry." "Rin-chan?" "Asa-senpai, what should I do?" "What..." "Oh, man." "Am I at my limit already?" "I'm sorry, Rin-chan." "Asa-senpai?" "Asa-senpai?" "!" "Asa-senpai!"
