HITORIBOCCHI NO CHIKYUU SHINRYAKU
OOGAWA MAIKO
Chapter 51: Outbreak of war.

002
???: See you later.
???: Bye.
???: Day duties included making printouts of pamphlets for tomorrow..
???: Oh?
???: Really? Day duties include helping out with that?
Koichi: Well then…
Let’s be off!

003
Koichi: Whoa…
Rico: Uwah!
Koichi: There are shops open all over the place playing Christmas music, huh?
Rico: Koichi, it’s bad to come to a place like this on your own!
Koichi: Normally that’d be the case, but…
Today is special.

004
Koichi: It’s about that time.
Rico: Yeah..
Girl: A-kun, I don’t wanna go hooome for today yet…
A: I getcha Misacchi, what do you wanna do?
Koichi: I borrowed this tune from Ayla-san.
Rico: Ah! Let’s listen to it!
???: Hello there.
Are you listening?

005
???: If you can hear my voice then…
I shall tell all of you of my most important wish.
You must flee from this city.
I beg of you all.

006
???: I realize how selfish and sudden this request sounds..
Unfortunately,
We cannot protect all of you.
So I’m begging you…
Misacchi: A-kun, I think I want to go now.
A: Me too, Misacchi.

007
Nozomi: What are you listening to?
Ayla: Hm?
Just some pop song. Right now it’s only the people in town who can hear your voice, so I felt like if I didn’t listen to something I’d go crazy.
Nozomi: Hmph.
But’s the bishahora broadcasting right now, right?
Ayla: I guess so, but the range of its power is pretty scary.

008
Ayla: Hey Nozomi,
What kind of power is that anyway?
Is it like using your voice to mind control others who hear it?
Nozomi: No.
It’s something grander than that, something more along the lines of acting upon reality itself.
Words themselves are keys to possibilities granted by the world upon being spoken.
My power is taking that key and making that possibility reality.
Ayla: But, your power has no effect on Maaya.
Furthermore she used that same power on you to place a malignant curse.
You’ve been completely swallowed up by Maaya, Nozomi.

009
Ayla: Don’t make that face.
As long as you don’t end up in that same situation again, it’ll be fine.
You absolutely must not fight Maaya alone.
Never leave Koichi’s side, got it?
Nozomi: I understand.
I’m going now.

010
Koichi: Amazing…
There really isn’t anyone here.

011
Koichi: Let’s do this, senpai!
Nozomi: …Kay!
Koichi: Oh yeah.
You’re not supposed to leave my side at all today.
I talked to Ayla-san about it, and if Maaya should show up, you leave her to me.
Nozomi: But Hirose-kun you’re supposed to be Nagi-kun’s opponent…
Koichi: Why’s it got to be a prerequisite we fight separately?
We’re friends right?

012
Nozomi: He’s here.
Ayla: A platoon of beings with heat signatures have appeared at a traffic crossing in the second block!! Hurry there immediately!
Koichi: Got it!

013
Koichi: There’s nothing here…
Nozomi: Shh.
???: Listen and you shall know.
Across the universe from Orbelio…
The last of the Goz star,
The youuuuuungest son who has at long last proclaimed the seal of the king..
But as the king’s eldest brother has already died,
His whole body surrounded by black salt..

014
???: His ambition,
Has not exhausted.
His aim is to be number one under the heavens…
Number one in the universe!

015
???: His liege King of Goz Zoki, has decended!!!

016
Nozomi: And here he is.

017
Zoki: Huh?
No one’s here.
(Handwritten- No earthlings…)
Zoki: Heeeey Koichi!
Ootori-senpai!
It’s me, Zoki! Heeeey!
Awww, what the heck! I go out of my way to make a flashy entrance and there are no spectators?!
It’s like I did this in vain, dammit!
Koichi: Rico.
Rico: Yeah.

018
Zoki: Ooh! So you finally showed up huh?
I knew you would!
From behind?!
Is that where you’re coming from?

019
Rico: Aaaagggghh!!!
Koichi: Rico, that’s enough! Let him go!
Rico: Nghnn!

020
Zoki: I’m a little disappointed in that choice of yours.
Tricks like those are useless.
Come at me straight on!

021
Rico: Something like that has been lurking in the city….?

022
Ayla: Zoki has used the center to make a mass quantity vortex of Goz soldiers.
And it would appear at the center of that storm is where Zoki is.

023
Nozomi: What should we do, Hirose-kun?
Koichi: If it’s a frontal attack he wants…
That’s what he’s gonna get!
Senpai!
Nozomi: Yes?
Koichi: Let’s go!
We’ll show him our strength!
Nozomi: Okay.
Rico: AWWRIGHT!!

024
Rico: Cleared for takeoff!!
Nozomi: Hirose-kun,
Let’s do that the thing!
Koichi: Yeah!
Haaaaaaaah!!!

025
Zoki: Ooh!

026
Koichi: We’re here Zoki!!
Give Nagi back!!
Zoki: Hmph…
I see.
It seems like you’re a little stronger than before,
But you’re still one hundred years too early…
To stand before me!

027

028
Nozomi: Hirose-kun!!
Koichi: Uwaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!

029
Koichi: Ngh….
Ayla: Are you two okay?!
Koichi: I’m fine…
My face got a little fragged is all…
Senpai? Where are you?
Ootori-Senpai?!

030
Koichi: Dammit! Just how far was I sent flying?!
Ayla-san, where’s senpai?
Ayla: Nozomi is…
She’s about twelve kilo’s north, in the direction of the Washimi block.
Koichi: That far?!
I’m headed there right away! Just hold on for a sec, Senpai!

031
Koichi: Ayla-san, this isn’t…
Ayla: That’s what it appears. You won’t be able to go to Nozomi as long as Zoki is standing in front of you.
Koichi: Damn, there’s no easy way to catch up with her…
Moreover, she hasn’t responded for a little while now! Senpai, what’s going on?
Nozomi: I can hear you fine, Hirose-kun…

032
Nozomi: However I may not be able to return to you for some time…
Maaya: Hello~
