I'm going to become strong, too.

In order to live on...

...and...

Oh, so you've dispatched three Yoma effortlessly?

Quite impressive.

It's nothing.

You've become quite commendable.

You haven't gone wild lately either,

and you even appear more sincere lately.

Has something happened to you?

I've learned quite well the limits of my abilities after the recent hunt for Awakened Beings.

Unfortunately, I have another job for you right away.

You are to head North to the village of Gonahl...

...and hunt an Awakened Being there.

Awakened Being...

Unfortunately, it's not Priscilla,

but this one was a former single-digit warrior.

She is far stronger than the male Awakened Being you fought last time.

Give it all you've got if you don't want to die.

I will not die.

That much is certain.

Such encouraging words.

I look forward to your work.

Seems like we'll reach the village of Gonahl by tomorrow.

Raki, you will wait here.

I'm going with you!

It's dangerous.

I can't bring you with me.

But Clare, I-

You will wait here until I return.

Do I make myself clear?

I sense my comrade.

What's this...

It's like... all the cells in my body are trying to warn me about something...

Oh, hello.

I thought everyone would've gathered by now.

We have, no?

You and me.

It's just the two of us hunting an Awakened Being?

Yes, indeed.

Truth is, I could've done it alone.

You're like an extra.

She's a single-digit...

One of the top five?

Her symbol...

I'll know if I see her symbol.

You... have the smell of an Awakened Being...

Oh, come on.

Let me taste it a bit more.

I love this smell.

You can't move, right?

Too bad.

Like I said, it's useless to try to move.

What a weird taste.

But hmm, I remember this taste from somewhere.

Are you really one of us?

Get your hands off Clare!!

Raki.

If you're going to put your hands on Clare like that again,

then I won't forgive you!

What's with that kid?

Your... friend?

Hey, don't you think it's beautiful?

The red color, like that of a rose, that adorns all that surrounds it,

but only when your body is slashed and torn into pieces?

Shall I tear that boy apart nicely?

She's...

Number Four - Ophelia.

My, your face has changed after seeing my symbol.

So, you know about me or something?

I'm quite interested...

...of your source...

But before that...

My, you're quicker than I expected.

What's the meaning of this?

The rule dictates that killing humans will only lead to our own death.

Do you want to die?

You two are so stupid.

It's all good if I don't say anything about it, right?

Why would anyone report it when their neck is on the line?

What...

Even if someone were to witness it,

the matter would be over with if I kill that witness altogether.

Ah, I know.

Let's play a game.

Listen, I'll explain the rules now.

I'll fight with this boy.

Of course, I won't fight seriously.

I'll fight according to the boy's strength.

But after every minute, I'll increase my power and speed a level.

Right...

I think his head will fly in ten minutes.

In that time period, you'll have to glue your two legs back together and come save him.

Take too much time, and the boy will die.

Do it too fast, and your legs will be so badly joined, you won't be able to save anything.

So? Doesn't it sound fun?

Why you...

Well, then.

Ready?

Start!

I should be able to do this by repeating the process...

...of releasing my Yoma powers and regenerating.

My, my.

You're better than I thought.

I'm slightly impressed.

It's earlier than the time,

but I'm going up one level.

Come now, you need to hold your sword properly.

The sword is double-edged, after all.

Damn it!

Oh, that's not going to work.

I told you, if you rush, your legs won't even hold together.

It won't even connect.

The more time goes by, the deeper the wound will get.

At that point, you'll never be able to join your legs together.

Calm down.

Concentrate.

You are such a straight and nice girl.

That was the reaction I wanted.

There.

There.

There.

This is so fun.

This boy is so much fun.

Hey, look!

This boy is not making a single noise when he's cut...

...so that he doesn't make you lose any concentration.

He's all bloody and seems like he'll cry any second,

but the boy's keeping his mouth shut.

Shut up!!!

Stop talking trash already.

Your worthless attacks... don't even make me itch!

I can't keep this feeling in.

You're wonderful.

You're so wonderful.

Both of you!

Which one of you shall I kill?

Which one of you would be more fun to watch screaming in agony?

What are you people doing here?

Don't come here!

Run!

Why?

Ahh... you're here...
