Galley: Masterrrr!
Where’d you go masterrrr?
Heyyy! Gremlin!!
Have you seen master Arago?
Ah, he probably went off on his own again to look for some clue for his brother…
Don’t worry! Master Arago will get revenge on whoever did that to your friends!
He may not look like it, but he’s a really nice person!!
Oh yeah, I still need to come up with a name for you.
Since I was master’s first henchman, you have to call me Beggar Senpai!!

Galley: “You’ve been enjoying yourself…
You must really be used to Brionac”
Arago: No…I’m,
Different from…
Patchman: We’re not different…
Arago: Be quiet…you’re not real!
Patchman: It’s not good to lie to yourself…You knew from the beginning.
As soon as you saw those fierce looking gremlins, your mind was consumed with rage.
And…

Page 4:
One wrong step, and you would have slaughtered them all…
Accept it…
Arago: You’re wrong.
Patchman: You’re the same as me…
Arago: You’re wrong!
Patchman: A monster.
Arago: You’re wrong!!

Page 5:
Patchman: You can’t destroy an illusion.
I am the weakness in your heart…
If you kill me,
Won’t Ewan die as well…?
Arago: There has to be a way…
I will save Ewan!!
It can’t…really be them…!!
Patchman and Ewan…!?

Wh…what the hell……?
Is this thing…!!!

My,
Aren’t you a lively one?
Yesterday was quite dangerous…I merely went out to gather “seed” ingredients…
And I almost ended up bumping heads with the man who holds Brionac…
It’d be foolish to confront him directly…
I don’t know what happened with that mutt Lucian, but I’m not surprised at all that he failed to kill him…

Page 8:
I still don’t understand what his majesty was thinking, letting a man like that join our ranks…
Nothing else can oppose Brionac aside from my ability, the black horseman’s ability.
SFX: *Rustle*
Simon: Slowly but surely,
I’ll drive you into a corner…
Slowly,
Slowly but surely,
I’ll torment you to the end…
Now then, I have some excellent materials today.

Page 9:
If I meld these two together,
What kind of golem will be born?

Page 10:
Arago: Oh Sethhhhh!
Can I borrow you for a little bit?
Angry Fangirls: What, why you!! We’re talking to Seth right now!!
Arago: Now, now…Seth belongs to everyone!!
Right?
Seth: Sorry everyone, I’m going to step out for a little while.
Fangirls: Please come back soon!

Page 11:
Seth: This is…
So it died?
Arago: I really didn’t want to come to you about this, but Beggar doesn’t know anything.
You’re blaming me!?
Seth: Are you sure about that? You want to “borrow” from me again.
I’ve done all sorts of favors for you but I don’t believe you’ve paid me back yet.
Arago: Uh.
Seth: Oh well,
I’ll let it slide for now, but I’m still expecting you to pay me back.

Page 12:
The body and the bicycle frame have been completely fused together.
There are no surgical scars, which means it was done with some sort of ability…
A creature…no, a seed holder…and not an ordinary one either…
Arago: The four horsemen!?
Seth: Right, it’s probably a different one than the pale horseman Lucian…
Arago: He did something this horrible!!
It’s disgusting…
Seth: Where’d you find this?
Seth: Pareem Street.
He’s close…probably watching our movements.
He’s an extraordinary opponent, with considerable power.
…You’re not ready.
Arago: Ready for what?

Page 13:
Seth: In a situation like this, when you don’t know what kind of attack is coming at you,
Someone important may be taken as a shield.
That’s the kind of thing you need to be ready for.
Arago: Someone…important.
SFX: *Vrrrrr*
Arago: This is Arago.
Right, I’ll be right there!!
It looks like he really is making his move.
They found another body like that dog.

Page 14:
It’s a person this time!!
A human…
Cops: Wh, what the hell happened to this guy…!?
Ugh…that smell is horrible…
I’ve, got to be dreaming…

Page 15:
Machines and adhesion…I don’t even know how to describe it…
He’s started to decay, which means he’s in his second day of post mortem at least….
The first person to find the body was a park cleaner, who found it around 9:00 AM, he works the same hours every day.
So we were able to narrow down the time of death…

Page 16:
There seems to be a big gap between when he was put here and when he died…
He was probably killed somewhere else, and was then placed here…
Joe: It’s impossible…this isn’t natural…
Is Patchman connected…?
I have a very bad feeling about this…
It isn’t that far off from Patchman…
I’m getting closer…
Coco: Hunt Senpai!
Arago: Coco!!
Coco: They found it over there…

Page 17:
Arago: So what’s the body’s condition?
Coco: I haven’t seen it, Papa wouldn’t let me near it.
I’m not a child anymore…
I’m a police officer!!
Arago: ……
Coco: Anyway, aside from the coroner, it looks like they called in a doctor who specializes in strange corpses.
He’s probably with Papa by now.
Simon: Ah!!
Coco: Kya!!
Simon: Oh, please excuse me….I was in a hurry.
Coco: I…I’m sorry!
…..! Oh, are you!?
Simon: Yes?

Page 18:
Oh….I was asked to come in as a consultant.
I’m Dr. Simon Cloteaux…
