It's been a while... it's really been a while. Azuma Kazuma-kun.

Chapter 215: Kirisaki and Bread
-----
You... you're...
-----
No way...

P42
Oji-san... are you the Oji-san from back then!?
----
Yes.
----
Bottom half, top right: You really were such a little kid back then
----
Bottom right: I'm glad you remember me
----
Left: There's no mistaking it... it's really him.

P43
It was so long ago I completely forgot his face...
----
But after seeing these gentle eyes... I was able to remember.
----
Wha... what happened to them?
----
Both Kirisaki and Azuma-kun...
----
Kanmuri:After Kirisaki took off his sunglasses, the two of their attitudes completely changed...
Tsukino: You're right..

P44
But why! Why would you do something like this!?
----
For that Oji-san to become someone like you...
----
It was before I met you...
----
At that time, Silvan was just a child, and Sophia was just born

P45
Aaaaaaah
----
Woman: What's wrong honey? You look like you're really struggling...
Kirisaki: Well...
----
It's just that I have to make a really addictive bread. I've been thinking about it, but I just can't quite figure it out.
-----
Woman: Addictive..?
Kirisaki: Basically a bread that you would want to keep eating everyday // English Bread and French Bread sell really well because you can eat them everyday and you still don't really get bored of them.

P46
That's why I think it would be a lot better if my Ja-pan was addicting.
-----
Kirisaki:Ahhhhh, it looks like the Go-pan where I used rice flour really is better
Woman: Hey, Honey
----
Woman: I'm really happy that you're doing your best, but don't try to overdo it, ok?
Kirisaki: What?
----
It's just that I've been really worried about you lately // You've really lost a lot of weight. It seems like this bread is just sucking the life out of you...

P47
Wh.. what are you talking about Francoise! I'm not pushing myself, and I'm full of life too!
Box: while I was saying things like that, things were looking bleak
----
The salary of a Japanese baker like me was very low. Now that my second child was, my every day life was very tough.
----
left top: Anything is fine... I need money... I want to succeed... the lust for money in my heart quicky grew stronger
---
box: Then one day
Child: Mama, I'm hungry!

P48

Francoise: It'll be done in a minutes so just wait a second OK Silvan?
Silvan: Ok
Baby: Oka~y
-----
Francoise! // Francoise!
-----
What happened Honey? Why are you in a such a hurry...
----
Listen, Francoise! // I did it! I finally did it!
----
Francoise: Do you mean you finally completed it?
Kirisaki: That's right!

P49
The ultimate additictive Ja-pan I've been trying to make is done! // Maou!
tl note: Maou means Devil King, or Magic Emperor
----
I just tried it and was really surprised! It really tastes like it's possessed by magic! // If its this bread the sales should even be explosive in my mother country Japan!
----
Fran:You really did it Honey!
Kirisaki: Thank you, Francoise
Box: At that time, we were at the peak of our happiness.


p50
Box: However, the bread made by my lust and impatience completely crushed that happiness
Fran: Hey, Honey!
----
Do you really need to be going on a trip to improve your bread? What are you going to do...
----
Didn't you tell me that you already completed it?
----
Fran: The kid's and I have been lonely..
Kirisaki: Shut up Francoise!

p51
Since when were you allowed to share your opinion with me?
-----
top left: H..Honey!?
----
middle right:
Kirisaki: Ugh...
Francoise: Honey...
----
S... sorry Francoise
----
Lately I been saying some things I can't even believe.
----
Francoise: What do you mean?
Kirisaki: I think..

P52
It's the Maou's fault.
----
That bread is so delicious it's dangerous
----
The addiction is too strong, if you eat it once you won't be able to stop it. It's like my ambition is overflowing from the bread's dough.
----
Kirisaki: The reason I haven't let you and the children eat it yet is because I've realized this danger after I ate it.
Francoise: This is crazy...

P53
If that's how it is, you need to stop trying to improve that terrible bread now!
----
Kirisaki: There's nothing terrible about it...
Fran: What!?
----
Kirisaki: You can just shut up and devote yourself to raising the children. Don't talk about things that aren't necessary.
Fran: His...his expression changed again..

P54
Kirisaki: Got it?
Fran: But... Honey...
----
Don't talk back to me!
Aaah!
----
Bottom right: And then, Francoise fell ill and eventually passed away
----
bottom left: After that, while being overtaken with pain at the death of my wife, I was suffering from the control of the Maou

P55
No matter what I did, it didn't go well. I did some horrible things to Silvan and Sophia.
----
On the surface I was smiling in front of the customers, but for many may years after that until I met you I didn't return to normal even once.
----
Azuma: So.. why were you normal when you met me?
Kirisaki: I don't know
----
But, you just might have some other special power besides your solar hands...

P56
Why you say? It's thanks to you that I've been able to return to myself again for the first time in 10 years.
----
Before creating the Maou, I lived happily with my wife.. For turning me back..
----
Thank you so much Azuma-Kun, really.
----
Azuma: Oji-san...

P57
Kirisaki: Ug... aaah....
Azuma: Wh.. what's wrong Oji-san!?
----
Kirisaki:It's... it's no good.. the Maou's control has gone too powerful again..
Azuma: No, don't give up Oji-san!!!
----
If you focus hard enough you can return back to your true self!!
----
Heh // Quit saying the impossible

P58
But.. even though it was only for a sort time, it was fun.
---
Farewell
----
Wa.. // Wait!!!
----
Please wait Oji-saaaan!!!
