130:
BUBBLE1: Sandou.
BUBBLE2: Is this how you spent the last century preparing for my arrival?

BUBBLE3: Interesting.

BUBBLE4: Kaen.

BUBBLE5: Well now.

131:
BUBBLE1: It has been a thousand years - How about we settle this once and for all?
BUBBLE2: Princess.
BUBBLE3: Shirayuki.

BUBBLE4: But know that I will rise the victor.

BUBBLE5: Fufufu.
BUBBLE6: Fufufufu.

TITLE: Chapter 4: A Request

133:
BUBBLE1: It's been two weeks
BUBBLE2: since both Tsukumo Isshu's attack and the breaking of Kaen's seal,
BUBBLE3: And we've noticed nothing suspicious since then.

BUBBLE4: ... I expected them to go on some rampage, to be honest...
BUBBLE5: Man, what a letdown.

BUBBLE6: That big rock could've just split on its own...
BUBBLE7: Maybe Kaen didn't really exist in the first place.
BUBBLE8: I wish I could believe that.

BUBBLE9: Is it possible that both Kaen and Tsukumu got through Futakago's Barrier?
BUBBLE10: No, it isn't.

134:
BUBBLE1: Yamato and the others investigated the area, but there were no signs of the barrier being broken.

BUBBLE2: Also, if the barrier were broken...
BUBBLE3: we would've lost our abilities a while ago, since Futakago's Barrier is the source of our power.

BUBBLE4: True.
BUBBLE5: Hmm.
BUBBLE6: So, what do we do now?

BUBBLE7: Akifuji, analyze any data that Sandou left behind.
BUBBLE8: Okay.
BUBBLE9: The rest of you remain cautious.

BUBBLE10: If I had to guess,
BUBBLE11: Kaen may have moved faster than we anticipated.
BUBBLE12: He could be lurking around every corner...

135:
BOX1: Matabi Gakuen's rear forest

BUBBLE1: Haa
BUBBLE2: Hii
BUBBLE3: Whew

BUBBLE4: Hii...
BUBBLE5: Even after reducing my size,
BUBBLE6: Hahi...
BUBBLE7: it seems that I cannot find a way out of this blasted forest.
BUBBLE8: What in the world is with this barrier!
BOX1: In the deepest area...

BUBBLE9: No doubt Kaen-sama is experiencing considerable hardships because of this...

136:
BUBBLE1: Hmm?

BUBBLE2: ...

BUBBLE3: A split end!!?
BUBBLE4: Is that a split end
BUBBLE5: marring my perfect hair?!


BUBBLE6: Noooooo!
BUBBLE7: I can't believe it...

BUBBLE8: On top of that, it's losing its moisture and sheen...

BUBBLE9: !

BUBBLE10: Owowowow...!
BUBBLE11: I guess my neck still hasn't recovered...

137:
BUBBLE1: ...

BUBBLE2: Kaen-sama...

BUBBLE3: Tsukumo.
BUBBLE4: !!?

138:
BUBBLE1: It has been ages, Tsukumo.
BUBBLE2: This voice...
BUBBLE3: Could it be...

BUBBLE4: Kaen-sama!?

BUBBLE5: Where are you?
BUBBLE6: Please tell me where you are!

BUBBLE7: Kaen-sama...
BUBBLE8: !!

139:
BUBBLE1: ...
BUBBLE2: A raven?

BUBBLE3: Indeed.
BUBBLE4: For the moment, I can only communicate with you through this medium.

BUBBLE5: No...
BUBBLE6: Is the seal still...!?
BUBBLE7: Fufufu.
BUBBLE8: No,
BUBBLE9: I've completely awakened.

BUBBLE10: All that I will say now is that I am working
BUBBLE11: to take back what is mine, as well as to end the fates of the Princess and Shirayuki.

140:
BUBBLE1: In order for us spirit beasts to once again rule the earth as gods
BUBBLE2: I will destroy the greater barrier of Futakago!

BUBBLE3: Kaen-sama...

BUBBLE4: How may I assist you?

BUBBLE5: Listen, my brethren.
BUBBLE6: Your first goal shall be to deceive the second barrier
BUBBLE7: that Sandou has crafted; I shall tell you how.

BUBBLE8: Goodbye, Vice-principal.
BUBBLE9: Yes, goodbye.

141:
BUBBLE1: A satisfactory farewell.
BUBBLE2: Truly a shame that all students aren't so courteous.

BUBBLE3: Right, there was also that girl came late during the opening ceremony.
BUBBLE4: What was her name?

BUBBLE5: Hmm?

BUBBLE6: A letter?

142:
BUBBLE1: Okay,
BUBBLE2: all done.

BUBBLE3: Isn't that nice, Kansuke?
BUBBLE4: ...
BUBBLE5: Yeah,
BUBBLE6: it looks good.

BUBBLE7: What's this?
BUBBLE8: An ID plate.
BUBBLE9: It's a sign that you're allowed to roam around the school.

BUBBLE10: The cat's name is on the front,
BUBBLE11: the owner's name
BUBBLE12: is on the back.

143:
BUBBLE1: Thank you, Hasutani-Sempai.
BUBBLE2: No problem.
BUBBLE3: This is actually Aoki-san's job, but...
BUBBLE4: She really anti-social.

BUBBLE5: And, just between us,
BUBBLE4: The entire student council are a bunch of problem children.
BUBBLE6: Is... that so?

BUBBLE7: ...What?
BUBBLE8: What are YOU looking at?
BUBBLE9: Got a problem, kid?
BUBBLE10: We can continue where we left off.

BUBBLE11: Yeah, we never did finish, huh?
BUBBLE12: Seeing as how I was TOO BUSY taking care of that monster.
BUBBLE13: Don't think you're the only one with powers.
BUBBLE14: Just wait 'til you see ME in action!

BUBBLE15: Cut it out already.
BUBBLE16: Don't stop me, Kotori!
BUBBLE17: Kansuke!

144:
BUBBLE1: I need to show him our difference in strength!
BUBBLE2: Listen: without me, you HAVE no powers.

BUBBLE3: What's your ability?

BUBBLE4: Uumm...
BUBBLE5: It's a lot like yours, actually.
BUBBLE6: My type lets Musashimaru fight rather than myself.

BUBBLE7: Type?
BUBBLE8: There are other patterns, you know.
BUBBLE9: The president, for example, is the type that fights instead of his cat.

BUBBLE10: Once you see it, you'll understand.
BUBBLE11: ...Though it would be better if you never got the chance to see it.
BUBBLE12: Yeah.

BUBBLE13: It's gotten really dark.

145:
BUBBLE1: ...

BUBBLE2: What?

BUBBLE3: Aren't you scared, Hasutani-sempai?
BUBBLE4: About... Kaen and everything...

BUBBLE5: ...
BUBBLE6: Yeah, I'm scared.

BUBBLE7: I think all of us are a little scared, deep down.
BUBBLE8: If the tales are true, our opponent isn't someone we can beat by just doing our best.

BUBBLE9: ...But at the same time,
BUBBLE10: knowing that we have this power, that we're the only ones who can do this,
BUBBLE11: really makes me happy.

BUBBLE12: Don't you think it's great to be relied on?

146:
BUBBLE1: Musashimaru understands. That's why he takes his role as Boss of the Strays seriously.
BUBBLE2: Stop, Kotori.
BUBBLE3: You're embarrassing me.

BUBBLE4: Feh.
BUBBLE5: You're not fooling me.

BUBBLE6: What!?
BUBBLE7: ...

BUBBLE8: ...I thought
BUBBLE9: that you were doing this only
BUBBLE10: because you have a wish that you want granted...

BUBBLE11: Oh, that. "One's dearest desire will be met."
BUBBLE12: ...

BUBBLE13: Yumi-chan, do you...
BUBBLE14: Do have a wish you want granted?

147:
BUBBLE1: ...

BUBBLE2: Me!? N-not really...
BUBBLE3: I mean, I have a lot of little wishes,
BUBBLE4: but I couldn't choose if I had to pick one...

BUBBLE5: Hmm, what about...
BUBBLE6: "I want the boy I like to confess to me,"
BUBBLE7: for example?
BUBBLE8: NNNNNNNNN, noo!
BUBBLE9: Wh-What are you saying, that's not it at all!
BUBBLE10: That really is small.

BUBBLE11: But, you do have a guy in mind, right?
BUBBLE12: Come on, 'fess up!
BUBBLE13: S-stop it, please!

BUBBLE14: Why do humans like talking about this crap?
BUBBLE15: Who knows.

148:
BUBBLE1: Phew.

BUBBLE2: Even if we do get to have a wish granted...

BUBBLE3: I think I couldn't decide on my own.

BUBBLE4: I want everyone to decide on it together, you know?
BUBBLE5: I guess that would be my wish,
BUBBLE6: ufufu.

149:
BUBBLE1: You two.
BUBBLE2: What are you doing here at this time of night?
BUBBLE3: It's past curfew.
BUBBLE4: Vice-principal!

BUBBLE5: Oh, it's you...
BUBBLE6: The girl who came in late durng the ceremony...
BUBBLE7: Go... Good evening, Vice-principal...

BUBBLE8: Oh, well.
BUBBLE9: Even though this is campus grounds, it's unsafe for girls to travel around in the dark.
BUBBLE10: Hurry and return to the dorms.

BUBBLE11: Yes, sir.
BUBBLE12: Vice-principal, where are you...?

BUBBLE13: I was summoned out here,
BUBBLE14: though I don't know why.

150:
BUBBLE1: Now, head straight for the dorms. Go no where else.
BUBBLE2: Understood.

BUBBLE3: ...Oh, well. Shall we had back?
BUBBLE4: Okay.

BUBBLE5: ...Goodness.
BUBBLE6: How dare this person call me out only to be late!
BUBBLE7: What nerve.

BUBBLE8: ...Well then.
BUBBLE9: I'm leaving.

151:
BUBBLE1: I"ll make a complaint tomorrow.
BUBBLE2: Kuhikuhikuhi.

BUBBLE3: Hmm?

BUBBLE4: !!?

BUBBLE5: ...!!

152:
BUBBLE1: This is my real body...
BUBBLE2: Indeed.
BUBBLE3: You will need that to return to your original form.

BUBBLE4: With this, you may about the grounds freely.
BUBBLE5: But be careful,
BUBBLE6: for you cannot take that jewel outside the barrier of Futakago.

BUBBLE7: Once it is taken out of the barrier, the jewel will be destoyed.
BUBBLE8: Should that happen...
BUBBLE9: Appropriate measures will have to be taken.

BUBBLE10: Understood,
BUBBLE11: Kaen-sama.

153:
BUBBLE1: I guess I'll start
BUBBLE2: by sending a little greeting.

154:
BUBBLE1: Leaf of Summoning. (Shoukanju no ha)

BUBBLE2: Spirit beaty seized by the barrier,
BUBBLE3: I summon thee.

BUBBLE4: !?

BUBBLE5: !!

BUBBLE6: What's wrong?
BUBBLE7: I...
BUBBLE8: There was loud noise just now...
BUBBLE9: A noise?

155:
BUBBLE1: ...

BUBBLE2: !!?

BUBBLE3: A tree!!!?

156:
BUBBLE1: Kyaaaa!
BUBBLE2: Pop! (Pa!)

BUBBLE3: I made it...
BUBBLE4: That yarn is pretty sturdy.

BUBBLE5: Kotori!
BUBBLE6: Yumi!

157:

158:
BUBBLE1: Bumoooo!

BUBBLE2: It's another one of these things, huh?
BUBBLE3: What is ti carrying?

BUBBLE4: Kufufufu.

159:
BUBBLE1: That boar
BUBBLE2: may be a complete idiot, but once he goes berserk, there's no stopping him.
BUBBLE3: Bangai... legendary for his recklessness.

BUBBLE4: You can go all out, Bangai.

BUBBLE5: I'll use this opening to carry out my mission.

BUBBLE6: Kuhikkuku.
BUBBLE7: ...
BUBBLE8: Wha...
BUBBLE9: What do we do, sempai?

BUBBLE10: Kyaaaa!
BUBBLE11: Here he comes!

BUBBLE12: Just get inside for now!

BUBBLE2: Bumo!
BUBBLE3: Bumooaa!

BUBBLE4: Kyaaaa!
BUBBLE5: Get a hold of yourself!
BUBBLE6: Yumi!

BUBBLE7: Move aside, runt.
BUBBLE8: Kotori and I are going to handle this.
BUBBLE9: Musashimaru!

BUBBLE10: .. He doesn't like the type who talks things out.
BUBBLE11: But you're going to try anyway, right?

BUBBLE12: Of course.
