THE SIXTH MOMENT

Makoto...

Makoto...

Ma-tan...

Ma-tan.

Everything is okay now.

Come back.

Ma-tan...

Makoto...

So, what are we going to do next?

Don’t tell me you don’t have a plan!

I might have been a hostage, but at least I was acting as an undercover spy.

Come on!

Dad!

Did they try to get you to convince us?

Did they go easy on you in return?

You’ve gone soft.

Hey, you!

I’m telling you this because I can see through their--

Do you have any idea what would have happened

if Grandpa and I left you just now and disappeared?

They would have beaten you to within an inch of death.

You’d be just about dead by now,

and they'd use you as bait to lure us out.

What?

Don’t tell me, “What?” Come on.

Tsubasa!

It really is him! He’s moving.

Tsubasa?

Makoto...

What? Makoto?

That kid!

People who fool around too much in this world end up as Heralds.

Grandpa!

What are we going to do? Tsubasa is--

Juri! Stop Tsubasa! Get the jellyfish out of him!

But if I stop him, then...

Makoto...

Do it!

If that wasn't the way to turn someone back into a human,

then that girl wouldn’t still be alive!

What? He’s not...

W-- Wait.

-Don’t touch-- -Tsu...Tsubasa!

Huh?

What is this?!

Wood?

Oh... it came off...

Huh? Sand?

Don’t touch it!

What are you doing?!

Grandpa!

Look!

This is...

His body hasn’t changed...

What’s going on?

I feel the Specter flowing through me just like I feel my blood flowing through my veins.

Did he escape?

Sorry.

Takafumi’s words were sort of ambiguous. I took too long to make the call.

Those guys can use instant teleportation.

It can’t be helped.

Let’s go to the Yukawa residence.

Did he lose weight?

He’s not here.

He was definitely here before.

I’m sure he hasn’t gone far.

That’s...

Makoto’s...

We have the child.

If you want him back, then do as I say.

Understand?

Did you see the mess in the annex?

The thing that you guys call The Handler does things that are even worse.

What?

I’m going to summon The Handler.

You expel the Specter from its body.

The Handlers have white jellyfish in their bodies, just like us.

If you expel them, The Handlers will stop,

just like the people who you returned to The Stalled.

Is that Handler...

someone from your family?

Hey, hey! What’s going on?

What's this about her family--

-Shut up, Takafumi! -Okay, I got it...

So it is.

I got it. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to help, but I’ll try.

But was this the only way?

Why didn’t you come talk to us?

I’m under no obligation to answer your question.

Hey, knock it off!

Are you one of them?! Are you after our Stone?

I bet you’re just planning to use the Stasis spell to strike it rich!

Well, I thought you’d say that. That’s the kind of thing you guys think about.

You’ve been in and out of Stasis for so many generations,

and this is how you end up?

I can’t believe it.

It was just coincidence that we happened to have The Stone that night.

We didn’t even know the first thing about Stasis.

Yet we were tangled up in your Stasis spell...

I went to go see you.

I stood in front of your house.

And I decided to negotiate with The Genuine Love Society.

Why?

Why should I tell you?

You didn’t even know that it’s possible to summon people who disappeared in Stasis 17 years ago.

Am I wrong?

I’ll help you.

But I can’t forgive you for what you did.

I’m okay with that.

The feeling is mutual.

Liar!

You said you’d help Tsubasa!

Liar, liar, liar!

Well, anyway, eat this.

I don’t want it! I’m going home!

Wait, wait! Someone just went to pick them up.

Jesus. You better get back here soon.

I hate dealing with kids.

Oh! See? They’re here!
