Rewrite (リライト)

Pathetic.

You housebroken dogs in your sheltered environment,

talking about "justice" when you know nothing about war...

I'll destroy you all!

That's why I've stayed alive in this rotten world!

Should we call it good for now?

Wait.

I can keep going.

Distracted as you are right now, you will not learn anything.

Now, I will go make my rounds through the forest.

Damn.

He saw straight through me.

Good... memories...

Guess I'll head to the Harvest Festa for a change of pace.

Denied.

I figured as much.

Aw, why not?

What's the problem?

I can't say I don't understand.

And here I thought I could go to a festival with friends for the first time.

Next year, for sure,

let's go around the Harvest Festa with everyone from the occult club!

With Shizuru and the president, too!

That sounds nice.

Yeah, very nice!

It does.

I'm sure Shizuru will be delighted, too.

Indeed!

I'll have to drag my best friend, Yoshino, along with us.

And of course, Kagari, you'll join us—

Kagari?

She is kind of quiet today, isn't she?

What was that noise?

No way!

What's wrong, Kotori?!

The barrier has been broken from the outside!

What?!

Yo.

So you were here.

You...

Is your friend from Guardian here, too?

Or did she kick the bucket already?

You're the one who hurt Lucia!

I stuck a skewer through her belly and barbecued her good.

I grilled her just right, didn't I?

You bastard!

Wow, you had a trick like that up your sleeve?

Guess I'd better show you my hand, too.

Wh-What is it? An earthquake?

It's a waste to use it on scrubs like you,

but get a taste of its power!

Chibi-Moth! Everyone!

Fight!

You had a monster user kicking around, too?!

What is this monster?!

Bastard!

Yo.

I see you're alive, hunter.

This time, I'll kill you for good.

Chibi-Moth, help us out!

What're you doing?!

We're running away!

He shouldn't be able to animate that monster for long!

Besides...

This place is done for.

Kotori.

She's right! Let's run away, quickly!

That thing's dangerous!

Easier said than done...

It's all right.

The trump cards are on their way.

Huh?

A gun?

Get rid of them, big guy!

Wha—

Let's go, while we have the chance.

Wait!

Why are Keisuke-san and Rikako-san...

Why are your parents here?!

Huh?

Come on, hurry!

Wait!

Kotori, listen to me—

They're just monsters now!

You're not getting away!

I do not understand any of this complicated stuff,

but I believe we need to run for now!

Got it!

With this, we can protect our family.

Yes. You are right, dear.

Huh?

Let us go, dear.

Yes.

No way...

Impossible...

I mean, they're both already...

Dad!

Mom!

Don't get in my way!

I should have known better! I got too far away.

Chihaya-san, please be safe!

We won't let you get in Midou's way!

Gaia's Strongest...

Let's see if you're really as powerful as the rumors say!

Kilimanjaro and Krivoy Rog?

I believe they're a tad insufficient to take me on.

These small fry ate up my time.

We're counting on you.

Yeah!

Bayern Knights of the Green Sword...

Move out!

I'm leaving now, too.

Oh, first, I would like to make something clear.

You and Lucia-chan aren't thinking of doing anything stupid, right?

I see.

Good, then.

Shizuru-chan, you be a good girl and watch over the place.

You're our ace in the hole.

Don't forget.

You're a member of Guardian.

That day ten years ago...

The first monsters I created after becoming a Druid

were my dad and mom.

They could move and could even talk.

But those were only reflexive movements from when they were alive.

They were nothing but tools!

And I just used them at my convenience, right to the very end...

I'm sorry.

I was with you,

but I never noticed.

Not to mention,

I didn't even know about the accident...

It's fine.

There isn't a single thing you need to apologize to me for.

Kotori?

Are you all okay?!

Yes! We are fine!

I see.

You bastard!

Go on without me!

I'll stop this guy!

Don't be stupid!

What're you saying?!

You can't do it on your own!

I'll be fine!

I'll definitely meet up with you later!

No lying, okay?!

I know.

Sacrificing yourself for others?

So touching...

It makes me wanna hurl!

I won't let you lay a finger on Kagari!

Kagari?

Oh, you mean the Key?

True.

I'm sure hunters would go into a frenzy over that,

but you're the one I want to kill!

Why are you so obsessed with me?!

It's not just you!

You pieces of crap in this country

spend every day with your heads in the clouds,

and I want to turn all of you into dust!

Hurts, doesn't it?!

A peace-addled fool couldn't possibly endure this!

He's getting destroyed!

How is that man still alive with two monsters

that powerful in tow?

Yeah, it hurts.

But, unfortunately for you,

handling pain is the one thing that jerk Sakuya instilled in me!

You brat!

"Bull's-eye," as they say.

Damn!

I see. This thing's a real piece of work.

The newbies would be no match for it.

Hunter reinforcements?

Is that...

Don't me tell you're all...

Boy?

Gen-san!
