"What the fuck did you just say?" Yuki asked Aida, staring daggers at her.
"Masachika Kuze is dead." Aida repeated herself to Yuki in simpler language.
Yuki grabs Alya by her collar and rests her katana's sharp edge on her throat.
"YOU STUPID FAULTY AI!! THERE IS NO WAY HE IS DEAD!! CHECK AGAIN!!" Yuki asked her angrily.
"No need, it is for certain." Alya replied.
Yuki lets Alya go and then kneels near Masachika's lifeless body again.
"Oh… oh… I see…"
"Right… This is an elaborate prank, right?" Yuki said while wiping her face with her dress.
"You want to get back at me for all those shenanigans, right?" She said with a forced smile in denial.
"Hahahaha…"
"You totally got me…"
"I admit defeat…"
"You can stop now, big bro."
"You are so cool and strong and dependable and reliable and great and…"
Yuki sobs and sniffles uncontrollably while staring at her brother's corpse.
"And… and… there is just… no way…"
"There is just no way you would lose your life now…"
"… Please wake up." Yuki said while knocking on his chest. "I beg you…"
"We were supposed to raise our baby together…"
"Don't go… Don't leave me…"
"… You are the only one I want to spend my life with…"
"You are the only family member I really had left…"
Nonoa, Sayaka, and Ayano do not dare to stop Yuki's denial and how she clings to him in fear of her emotional outburst.
"Lord, have mercy on his soul." John prayed in his heart for Masachika.
Suddenly, the masked man pushed Chelsea back near them again.
"WHY ARE YOU GUYS STILL HERE!?" Chelsea shouted when she noticed that they hadn't escaped.
"RUN AWAY!! NOW!!!"
The masked man follows suit, talking to the idling and griefing Liberators.
"Don't escape, you all." The masked man taunted them. "I have to kill every last one of you and retrieve Chisaki."
Yuki stares at the masked man with intense hatred and starts thinking to herself.
"Hate."
"I fucking hate that person."
"I loathe him…"
"He murdered my beloved brother!!"
"Why the fuck is he alive?!"
"It should have been him that died!"
"IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN HIM!!"
"He is evil and must be purged…"
"Yes… but how…?"
Yuki then looked at Chelsea's equipment, which made her capable of fighting the masked man.
"It's not something she carried. She summoned it…"
Yuki then turns her gaze at Alya.
"Yes… I can ask her to help… I can use her…"
"She is strong…"
Sayaka and Nonoa can only look in horror at what she is trying to do in silence.
Ayano's expression turned bright again, thinking to herself "Yuki-sama has a terrible idea…"
"Whatever it is…"
"… I should stop her."
"But… I also want to avenge Masachika-sama…"
"What should I do?"
"I can't decide… at all…"
"Masachika-sama… What would you like me to do now?"
Trapped between two contradicting wishes, Ayano decided not to interfere.
Roberta grasps on John's clothes, feeling that something terrible will happen soon.
John grabs her hand in response, trying to calm her down while preparing to leave.
"Don't worry, we will get out of here soon."
"You all! We should depart right now and-"
"Please stay silent, pastor." Yuki told John, trying to stall for some time.
Yuki then grabs both of Alya's shoulders and starts asking Aida some questions, staring sternly at her.
"What is that big pair of things she was carrying?" Yuki asked.
Aida replied, "Improved version of SUV weapons. They are only usable by CASTs from Gurhal subrealm, and-"
"Yeah yeah, that's not important." Yuki responded, cutting her mid-sentence due to her impatience.
"What's more important is… can you acquire one like that? You are also part CAST after all." Yuki asked her again.
Aida replied, "This body is not suited to using that kind of weaponry."
"But it is possible to use one should Chelsea give us permission to use her arsenal."
"However, such usage is highly not recommended, as this body is not designed to withstand it."
"Our priority should be escaping right now for everyone to survive."
Yuki grips Alya's shoulders even tighter.
"Listen closely, Alya."
"Resist Aida's influence on you."
"You got me?" Yuki asked Alya, trying to convince her to do her bidding.
Yuki then grabs Alya's chin and moves her head to face the sky while pointing at Chelsea who is fighting with the masked man high above.
"That masked bastard…"
"He killed your child, and he destroyed any chance you have to have kids with Masachika."
"Then he ruined your sister's sanity…"
"And then he killed Masachika."
"He also ruined the Quarantine Zone, and caused suffering to many."
"They won't rest in peace knowing their killer is prospering in this world."
"Remember what he took from us…"
"Remember your mission…"
John wants to cut in and tells Yuki to stop.
He then steps forward, but before he can say anything…
Nonoa, Sayaka, and Ayano point their weapons against him.
Chisaki then tells John, "Don't interrupt this. Please."
"We… have to put an end to this..." Nonoa said, having much to avenge herself as well.
"That person must pay for his evil." Sayaka said, wishing for the masked man to die as well.
"For the greater good, Pastor." Ayano said, wanting nothing short but a closure and justice for her beloved master.
Roberta then pulls on John's right wrist even harder, asking him not to meddle in their business.
Alya stays silent, thinking about her words.
Yuki then turns Alya's gaze towards Masachika's corpse.
"… Ma… sa… chika…" Alya mumbled.
Slowly, she's taking over Aida's influence.
"Yes, Alya…" Yuki gently whispered to Alya while smiling deviously.
"Let your wrath and rage fuel your vengeance, Alya!"
"… Let justice be done."
Alya slowly stands up and throws her weapons away.
"… Yes... Let justice be done, else evil goes unpunished…" Alya said to herself.
"My wish… My dreams…"
"He is the cause of it all going unfulfilled."
"I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!!!" Alya shouted loudly.
"WHY ARE YOU GUYS STILL HERE!? RUN!!" Chelsea shouted at them.
"Chelsea, give me access to your entire SUV Arsenal." Alya
Chelsea responds sternly with "No, young lady! You cannot use them-"
"FOCUS ON THE BATTLE, YOU BUSTED BOT!!" The masked man says mockingly while attacking her.
"DAMN IT!! FINE SENORITA!! HAVE IT YOUR WAY!!" Chelsea said. "Just help me take this bastard down!"
"… Спасибо, красавица. (Thank you, pretty lady.)" Alya replied in gratitude.
"Warning, this unit is not compatible with SUV attachments." Aida warned Alya.
"Just shut up and help me, Aida." Alya said to herself, or rather, Aida.
"But-"
"Halt all logical thoughts and speech, effective now!!"
"This order is in effect until you confirm the death of either myself or that masked man!!"
The Liberators, Chisaki, John, and Roberta can only stare at Alya with concern as she is talking to herself.
Aida then warns Alya, "Warning… this unit cannot sustain a SUV weapon, let alone 3 of them. Consider-"
"SHUT UP!! DO AS I SAY!!" Alya replied loudly.
Aida then warns Alya again, "The energy requirements require you to use ultra-condensed Photon reserve as fuel. It's not-"
"STOP YAPPING ALREADY!! JUST FUCKING DO IT ALREADY!!" Alya replied angrily and impatiently.
Aida finally gives in, and lets Alya do what she wants.
"Safety and limits lifted."
"Now summoning…"
"Rafal Burst - Anti-fortress Rapid auto-cannon."
"Exusia Espada - Anti-colony Photon sword."
"Exusia Fluge - Full support wing system."
"Ultra-condensed Photon reserve tanks."
"Installation ongoing…"
Chelsea immediately screamed after seeing how many SUV weapons Alya had summoned.
"NANI THE FUCK!!?"
"YOU CAN'T EVEN USE ONE SAFELY YOUNG LADY!!"
"WHY ARE YOU USING THREE!? EVEN I WILL GET WRECKED USING THAT MANY!!"
"DO YOU WANT TO END UP AS JUNK!?"
Alya immediately equipped everything she had summoned, ignoring the strains and warnings Aida and Chelsea gave her.
"I'm already nothing without him…" Alya replied to her.
Alya's eyes glow red from the warning system.
Her mind is now full of malicious intent to avenge Masachika, not caring about anything anymore.
"My wish is over… But…"
"At least I have to send that person to hell first!!" Alya said while pointing her new giant sword at the masked man.
The masked man then taunts her, "What's the matter? Avenging your boyfriend, sexbot?"
Alya lunges upward and stabs the masked man using the end of her cannon while shooting it multiple times point blank at him.
"KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL…" Alya derangedly, repeatedly says to the masked man.
"That girl is furious, huh?" Chelsea thought to herself. "But there's no way I can withdraw those SUV weapons now…"
"Please make it count!!"
Chelsea analyzes the battle while assisting her as it is a rare chance to analyze the effect of using multiple SUV weapons.
"Unbelievable, that masked man is still putting up a fight after being pressured by 4 SUV weapons at once."
"And that girl…"
"Her body is glowing blue from Photon particle overload..." Chelsea thought to herself.
"Every time her body starts breaking down from the overload, she uses the Exusia Fluge support system to heal and repair herself fully."
"But this probably cannot go on for too long. Her body is not designed to handle that much energy."
Meanwhile, Yuki looks upward at their fight, giggling happily while smiling deviously at the chaotic sight.
"Hehehehehehe…! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
"Yes, Alya! You are so amazing now!!"
"Destroy that bastard!!" Yuki shouted at her, smiling widely as she enjoyed how Alya is winning against him.
"MAKE HIM PAY!!!"
Ayano, Sayaka, Nonoa, and Chisaki cheered for Alya in their own hearts while staring at Alya's self-destructive act of vengeance, wishing for her victory.
Roberta and John could only stare at their battle with their jaws dropped and eyes widened in utter disbelief.
"It's like one of those Japanese anime I watched…" Roberta commented.
"Lord… What is even going on now…? Please protect us…" John prayed.
Yuki then realized something and thought to herself...
"He somehow wants Sarashina-senpai…"
"For something very important, most likely."
"I can't let her fall to him."
"I must make him lose something important too…"
Yuki then says "Senpai, I want you to kill yourself if that masked bastard wins."
"What are you saying, Ms. Yuki!?" John screamed.
"WE CANNOT LET HIM HAVE HER!!" Yuki screamed. "WHO KNOWS WHAT HE NEEDS HER FOR!?"
"And she is not innocent anyway! She obeyed him the most!!"
"Some of his blood… big bro's life… is on her hands!"
"For once in your life, do the right thing, Sarashina-senpai." Yuki said to end her talk while throwing an empty pistol and a bullet at her.
Chisaki pondered on her words, and found some truth in them.
She cannot let the masked man get away with everything he has done.
"… I understand." Chisaki replied.
"… If my death can make things right, I will gladly do it." She said while grabbing the pistol and loading the bullet into its chamber without hesitation.
"Thank you, senpai." Yuki replied. "We must do… the right thing…"
Roberta thought to herself, "She just convinced her friends to commit suicide!! What the fuck!?"
"But her words are not lies either…"
"Is this really the best thing to do!?"
Yuki looks up again, trying to see Alya putting up a fight against the masked man.
"Yes… YES!! DO IT ALYA!!"
"Hihihihihihihi… Hehehehehehehehehe…. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Suddenly, there is a call from within the Landhawk.
"Anyone, answer me! Anyone!"
John notices the call and immediately answers it.
"Who is this?" John asked.
"Oh, thank goodness! No one is replying to my calls on their phone!"
"Wait, who is this? Are you their friends?"
"I guess you can say I'm their ally?" John replied.
"Please tell one of them to come here and talk to me. Tell them it's from the dealer."
"… Okay?" John replied before heading out of the vehicle.
"Ms. Yuki? Anyone? There is someone calling us." Roberta said to them all.
"Not now, it's getting good…" Yuki replied without turning her gaze, feeling annoyed with his interruption.
"It's from someone called the dealer?" John added.
Yuki quickly takes her phone out and calls him back.
"… Please call me again later, sir. I am… grieving right now." Yuki said to the dealer through the phone.
"What the hell happened there!?" The dealer asked.
"Aida's limiters and safety is unlocked, and she is wielding THREE SUV WEAPONS AT ONCE!!"
"We have to kill that masked bastard at all costs." Yuki answered. "For my brother's sake…"
"What happened to Mr. Masachika?" The dealer asked.
"… He's gone. That masked fuck took him from us…" Yuki replied.
"He crushed his heart like he is Kano in Mortal Kombat and… well…"
"We tried all sorts of recovery items, but he didn't wake up."
"Even Aida doesn't detect any life signs from him."
The dealer quickly uses the sensors of the Landhawk to see what is going on.
He then noticed something peculiar about his autopsy.
"… Wait a minute."
"This pattern… the nanomachines in his reproductive organ are still active… even though…"
"It could be…"
"Ms. Yuki, or anyone, please give him a handjob or anything."
"There is a chance he might still be alive."
"What…?" Yuki asked the dealer with hope in her eyes.
"This… is probably Biostasis caused by something… since his crotch is likely still alive."
"The nanomachines are preventing it from spreading there, I suppose?"
"Anyway, I need to confirm it. Can you do that?"
"Just… try and see if you can get his penis to stand up."
Everyone's eyes widened upon hearing his statement, being filled with hope.
"… Call us if you need any help, okay?" John said before entering the Landhawk with Roberta, giving them some privacy.
Wasting no time, the Liberators lays Masachika's body flat on the ground with Ayano resting his head on her lap.
Yuki quickly takes his pants down and grips his cock with her tender right hand, stroking it gently along its length.
"Come on, big bro… Please, give us anything!" Yuki said while giving her own brother's cock a handjob.
Chisaki thought to herself, "… I already saw it before, but it's not any less impressive even when it's limp…" while blushing profusely.
"And apparently it is so good his own sister got hooked on it…"
"No, wait! Shut up, me!"
"This is to revive him!!"
"What are you doing idling, senpai!?" Yuki said to her.
"Hyah! Wha- What!?" Chisaki replied in surprise.
"Fondle his balls or something!! The more girls, the better!!" Yuki said to her.
Chisaki nods and complies, and without hesitation, extends her arms toward's Masachika's heavy scrotum.
She gently holds and massages his testicles with her firm grip.
"… It feels warm and pretty fun to fondle."
"It feels so heavy… It must contain a lot of semen… and sperm cells in there…"
"If back then… he shot it all in me…"
"OKAY STOP MY DIRTY HORNY MIND!! I AM TOUYA'S GIRLFRIEND AND WE ARE DOING THIS TO HELP HIM!!"
Chisaki continues to fondle Masachika's balls, while trying to suppress her lust and desire for him.
Sayaka and Nonoa both kiss his lips at the same time, giving it their all trying to stimulate him with other ways without getting in Yuki's way.
"Oh… OH!!! YES!!" Yuki shouted happily.
"I can feel it twitches!! It's getting erect, and his precum is flowing out too!"
Everyone smiles happily realizing that Masachika is alive.
"Thank goodness!!" The dealer said, expressing his relief too.
"How can we save Masachika-sama!?" Ayano said to the dealer through Yuki's phone.
The dealer thinks for a few second before telling them his analysis result and what to do.
"It doesn't go to his crotch because the nanomachines are operating using Photon particles…"
"Then it must be afraid of it…"
"Try overwhelming whatever it is that caused Biostasis in his body using Photon particles."
"Grab all photon weapons you can get around you! If the Landhawk is there, we can use it too!"
"Use every single Photon reserve vial on you, as well!"
"Roger!" Ayano replied, quickly collecting every Photon weaponry and reserve vials laying around near them.
"The sword from Alice, Alya's rifle and sword, our weapons, Chisaki's gauntlets…"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! THEY RUINED MY BEAUTIFUL WEAPONS!!!" The dealer screamed in anger.
"Screw it, we can still make it work!" He added.
Sayaka knocked on the vehicle door and John immediately opens it up.
"Yah!" Roberta shrieked seeing that Masachika's pants is still down.
"My bad, I forgot about this!" Yuki said before putting his pants up again.
"Ms. Sayaka and Ms. Nonoa, follow my instruction and get these wires out of the backpanel here!" The dealer said in the Landhawk's display, telling and showing them what to do.
"Ms. Yuki and Ms. Ayano, grab those glowing blue powerlines in the car's storage out and use it to connect all the weapons together!" The dealer said on Yuki's phone, also telling and showing them what to do.
"Ms. Roberta and Mr. John, I want you both to perform a surgery."
"Cut an incision to expose Mr. Masachika's heart open pronto!" The dealer instructed them both.
"And for you. Ms. Chisaki…"
"I want you to prepare a Trimate and be ready to deliver your strongest punch to save him."
"I understand." Chisaki replied.
After 3 minutes, they all finally completed what they have been instructed to do.
They have connected all Photon-based power source into Chisaki's gauntlet and exposed Masachika's still heart to the open.
Chisaki takes several deep breaths before equipping her gauntlets again while resting her fist on Masachika's exposed heart.
"Remember, punch all the way through his chest." The dealer reminded her.
"We have to flood his system from where he got infected to drive whatever it is plaguing him into stasis instead." He explained further.
"I understand… Here I go…"
Yuki, Ayano, Sayaka, and Nonoa grip each other's arms while sweating profusely, looking at Chisaki while praying that Masachika will be revived.
"God… please let this work… let this work… let this work…" Yuki prayed in her heart.
"God, please save my beloved man. Take my life in exchange if you must." Ayano prayed in her heart.
"Don't let him suffer from my wrongdoing, God. Please… bring him back." Nonoa prayed in her heart.
"Please let him back to us, God… I… I want him back…" Sayaka prayed in her heart.
Pastor John and Roberta also prayed that Masachika will be cured from whatever it is afflicting him right now.
"Have mercy on this man, Lord. Give him a second chance…" Roberta and John prayed in unison.
"Please… Please make it work, God! This man shouldn't die!" Chisaki shouted, praying that this will work.
"Please return this man to us, almighty God creator, king of this and every universe there are…" The dealer prayed.
Chisaki raises her arms and punches her fist down through Masachika's heart again, delivering an obscene amount of Photon particles into his body.
But unlike the reason why the masked man did it, Chisaki did it out of love and compassion.
And in that instant…
Masachika's eyes opened and he immediately raises up to take a breath after feeling another unimaginable pain in his chest..
"MASACHIKA!!" Everyone shouted at him, calling his name.
Wasting no time at all, Chisaki pulls her fist out of his torso and quickly feed him a Trimate, healing his wounds instantly.
"Whah… huh… Whai… why?" Masachika said in a daze.
His nerves are still a little impaired from whatever the masked man did to him, so he still have problem with his speech.
Suddenly, his entire body glows blue from Photon particles overload, and soon he started gagging as he is about to vomit.
"Don't let him vomit!! Keep those Photon in his body!" The dealer shouted.
Yuki quickly covers his mouth with her hands, trying to make him swallow it back down.
Masachika quickly stops himself from vomiting after hearing it, enduring the burning sensation in his throat and stomach.
"… I am… alive? Whah?" Masachika said while looking at his own trembling hands.
Yuki, Ayano, Sayaka, Nonoa, and Chisaki hug him tight while crying with joy, unwilling to let him go away again like before.
"… So… Sowry… I am… I have troubled everyowan…" Masachika said, apologizing to them all.
John and Roberta smiles while crying happily, thanking God.
"I hate to break this tearful reunion, but please untangle this mess and get ready to leave as soon as possible!" The dealer told everyone.
"That treatment is just temporary at best... I don't know how long it will last." He added.
"We really need Ms. Nagisa's help to separate him and the thing plaguing him!"
Yuki smiles brightly and says, "Aye, sir! Let's go to New Kashima now!"
Everyone then starts tidying everything up and gets ready to depart.
However, Masachika refuses to enter while looking around for something.
"Wheh… Wait… Where is… Alya?" Masachika asked.
"I will search for her." Chisaki said, volunteering herself.
"No. The masked man is looking for you." Yuki responded.
Suddenly, they see 3 people fighting in the sky, flying around.
"Chelsea… Alya!!" Masachika said, pointing at them. "There… they are!"
Meanwhile… up in the sky…
Alya and Chelsea successfully drive the masked man onto the defensive.
Each projectile Alya shoots with the Rafal Burst delivers enough force to make smooth holes that pierce through the tall buildings nearby them completely and rapidly.
Every time Alya swings the giant sword, buildings get cleaved into two and every building material near them melts.
Alya doesn't care about collateral damage anymore.
She just wants him dead.
"OKAY YOUR POWER-UP IS STRAIGHT UP BULLSHIT!! HOW THE FUCK IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE!?" The masked man asked in utter disbelief.
"I AM LOSING TO A SEXBOT IN SUICIDAL OVERDRIVE JUST BECAUSE SHE'S GOT SOME NEW WEAPONS!!?"
Alya responds angrily, "JUST SHUT UP AND DIE ALREADY YOU FUCKING BASTARD!!!"
After focusing on Alya's pressure for too long, Chelsea finally landed a direct continuous hit on the masked man, rendering him immobile.
"DAMN IT ALL!!! FUCKING WENCH!!!" The masked man cursed.
"NOW!! FINISH HIM OFF!!" Chelsea shouted at Alya.
Alya ditches her cannon and stabs him with her giant sword at maximum output, trying to burn him alive using the energy the sword is outputting.
The masked man tries to push the sword off his body, but Alya simply won't let him go.
She then looks at the ruined entrance of Lower Yoshiwara and brings him there while flying higher, still having the masked man stuck on her Anti-colony Photon sword.
Chelsea then realizes what is she trying to do.
"DON'T DO THAT SENORITA!!! YOUR BODY CAN'T TAKE IT ANY FURTHER!! STOP!!!" Chelsea screamed at her.
"I DON'T CARE!!!!" Alya said, prioritizing to murder the masked man above all else.
"… You still go forward, nonetheless..." Chelsea said while looking at Alya's recklessness.
"Please survive this, mademoiselle!"
Chelsea then quickly flies away from New Yoshiwara.
However, she suddenly sees the Landhawk and the Liberators still ion the street.
She quickly descends to warn them.
"ARE YOU GUYS STUPID!? GET AWAY FROM HERE!!" Chelsea screamed at them.
"THAT GIRL IS GOING TO DESTROY THIS PLACE!!!"
"Alya… Can't leave Alya!!!" Masachika said while walking towards Lower Yoshiwara's entrance.
Chelsea throws Masachika into the Landhawk and take them away.
"Damn it, I'm out of reserve!" Chelsea said while unsummoning her SUV weapon.
She quickly enters the vehicle and shouts, "DRIVE NOW!! DRIVE AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!"
"But Alya… still there… must save…" Masachika said to Chelsea, begging her to save Alya.
Chelsea reluctantly ignores his request, more concerned about saving everyone near her for now.
"… My lust for revenge has doomed Alya." Yuki thought to herself.
"In my anger, I asked her to sacrifice herself to destroy that masked man..."
"… What have I done?"
"Big bro… Alya… I'm sorry…"
Alya plunges down at full speed, driving him with the giant sword down Lower Yoshiwara down to Level B3 where the reactors are.
She plunged so hard and set the sword energy level beyond the maximum level, vaporizing his mask.
"YOUUUU!!!!!"
"HOW DARE YOUUU!!!"
Alya immediately leaves the dying masked man down there and triggers the reactors explosion along with the sword to self-destruct with him.
The masked man screamed as he realizes this might kill him for good.
"NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!"
Alya then triggers the reactor to overload and explodes with as much energy as possible, with the resulting blast sending her flying off somewhere.
The masked man gets caught in the center of the Exusia Espada and reactors' massive explosion underground, pulverizing his entire body on molecular level.
The explosion caused the stored Sulfur in Level B0 to melt and sends them flying before falling and raining down New Tokyo, while causing a massive earthquake and destroying New Yoshiwara completely from underground, killing every citizen residing in there.
Meanwhile, the blast sends everyone in the Landhawk flying away somewhere in the ruins of New Yoshiwara
Everyone holds fast to their seat, with Yuki and Ayano also holding Masachika down since he is weakened from the plague inside his body.
"ALYAAAAA!!!!" Masachika screamed while crying, afraid of losing Alya again from inside the vehicle.
… And so, New Yoshiwara is now a desolate ruin filled with molten sulfur balls raining down on it.
