SI-VIS: The Sound of Heroes

Oh, you all are back again?

Hello.

How's Kyoya?

Come Back to Life My Friend

Well... he still says he doesn't want to go outside.

What's his problem?

Homesick?

After just six months in Tokyo?

Siren might have to go on hiatus, so if Kyoya leaves too, what's gonna happen to SI-VIS?

Soji?!

What's he doing here?!

It can't be!

Oh, one of Kyoya's friends?

A calling arises from deep within in my burning heart

It's Show Time

The price of living in the time of freedom

"So, what do you want to do?"

Just standing there with my empty body

Like a calling to protect the world

I craved an unequaled gift

Lost in night's darkness

Until a voice called out to me

Like the light that declares the dawn

I'll take you with me at any cost (I pray and wish)

Beyond the Echo-verse (To the future)

Just being with you makes me strong

It's not an exaggeration

That encounter was a supernova

In an instant, everything that I am

Will be changed forever (Just to be)

A calling arises from deep within in my burning heart

Destiny is Calling us now

Just to be who we are

Destiny is Calling us now

Just to be by your side

I'm sorry to bother you so late.

My name is Sakamoto Soshiro.

Kenji-kun and the others told me about you.

You came all the way from Tokyo, didn't you?

You must be hungry after the long trip.

Oh no, please don't mind me.

Soji at Kyoya's home. Are you serious?

They're super competitive on stage.

Are they actually close? No way...

How is Kyoya-kun doing?

The thing is...

Since he came back,

he's shut himself in his room except for going to visit the grave at sunrise.

He doesn't eat much, and he hasn't told me anything about Tokyo.

I see...

It might not be my place to ask you this, but did something happen in Tokyo?

Well...

He lost his parents as a child, and I'm his only family.

But he never showed his sadness and worked hard.

When he found a good job in Tokyo,

he said, "I can look after you now."

He's truly a kind boy.

So if his job is too tough, he doesn't have to push himself.

He can come home and restart his life here.

I can't have that.

Kyoya-kun is irreplaceable.

When he joined SI-VIS, we were facing a big problem,

and it was hard for all of us.

Still, he gave us everything he had with his natural cheerfulness and positivity.

And before we knew it, he became the core of SI-VIS.

But because he's so caring and diligent to shoulder everything on him,

he may have felt too much pressure.

Still...!

Kyoya.

I'm sorry, but please leave.

Feeling comfortable sleeping in your bed, abandoning all your friends?

Running back home with your tail between your legs after a couple of failures.

How can you call yourself a SI-VIS... no, an artist, behaving like that?

You loser!

The complete opposite of what he just said.

Does Soji have a split personality?

So they aren't close after all?

You don't need to come back.

Everything's fine without you.

I'm sorry.

I've done it.

Why can't I say what I think?

I'm a fool.

I'll leave your pajamas here.

Oh, I'm sorry for the trouble!

It may be small since it was Kyoya's when he was in middle school.

It's fine. Thank you very much.

I'm the one to thank you.

Coming to such a backwater town for Kyoya.

No, all I did was make him even more stubborn.

I'm sorry.

But I'm relieved.

I could tell from that interaction that he made a good friend in Tokyo.

A true friend who would raise his voice for Kyoya's sake.

I can't call myself a good friend.

I know what he wants to hear, but what comes out of my mouth is the opposite of that.

I'm jealous of him all the time and make fun of him.

I don't think I'm raising my voice for him. Maybe I'm just frustrated.

Please continue to be friends with Kyoya.

Stay by his side, will you?

That's... up to him.

When Soji-kun gets out, you take a bath next.

I'm sorry for not speaking to you since I came back

and shutting myself in my room.

Don't worry about that.

I do wish you would eat, though.

Grammy, I...

It's all right.

I got the gist of it earlier.

Soji-kun is a nice boy.

He's polite and cares for his friends.

He puts on an act.

He's really harsh towards his inner circle.

So you're in his inner circle.

Soji is right.

Everyone else is doing their best but me.

Only I couldn't do my best. I couldn't bounce back and I ran away.

It's okay to run.

Kyoya, you're a truly precious, irreplaceable treasure

that your mom and dad protected with their lives.

So even if you can't do your best and run away,

I will always love you.

Grammy... thank you.

They're too short.

Lord Apollo.

Medea, are you well?

How kind of you to ask.

Samael and I have arrived at the Earth with no issues.

And Krios?

Have you met him?

Why hasn't he shown himself?

That's because...

How long are you going to shut yourself in?

Aren't you going to report to Lord Apollo?

Tell him you've had a change of heart,

or rather, you'll throw your heart away and exterminate the pests.

Stay out of it!

That face won't do.

Your hatred is clearly painted on it.

Lord Apollo will never overlook it.

But the thing is, I think being emotional is one of your strengths.

So his hatred towards the earthlings is burning strong.

Lukos... Krios's knight meant that much to him.

Right now, he shouldn't be on the battlefield.

At this rate, it will leave a deep scar in his heart even if we win.

Listen, Krios.

You want me to help you with your mission?

What do you mean?

I'll fight on the frontline.

You use your power however you want and don't worry about counterattacks.

Lukos was my only knight.

I don't need your help.

So you're going to charge in alone?

Against the guys even Lukos couldn't take down?

I have no interest in becoming your knight.

You can use me as a tool for revenge.

Why would you suggest something like that?

Isn't it obvious?

The possibility of winning, or rather exterminating, is higher when fighting together.

Lord Apollo would tell us not to use force for personal feelings!

Which are you going to follow, Krios?

Lord Apollo's words?

Or your own wishes?

Indeed, it may not be wise to let Krios fight at the moment.

But is there anyone else who can take that planet as a whole

before Lord Eden's strength disappears?

Lord Eden has weakened that much?

We knew it would come.

We're running out of time.

Please leave this to me.

That is why you have sent me to this planet.

What's wrong with revenge?

Why should the strength born out of hatred be deemed inferior?

Let's do it, Krios.

Destroy Earth with your hatred.

H-Hey.

Why...?

Well, we were on our way to school, and—

Listen, it's 5:30AM!

Hey!

There's no morning practice. It's too early.

You know why we're here. And you're too loud.

But she's always loud.

Say what?!

L-Listen. I—

I don't know what happened,

but I'm glad that you didn't get fired, at least.

Soji himself came here to bring you back.

Talk about VIP treatment.
