Chapter 182

01

Fujiko: What a cute friend.
Fujiko: Who was she?
Kyousuke: Y-you saw that?
Kyousuke: She's from the sanatorium near the villa...

Fujiko: Is that so?
Fujiko: Making new friends is a wonderful thing.
Fujiko: Bring her here next time.
Kyousuke: What?
Kyousuke: Is she angry?
Kyousuke: Could she be jealous...!?

Fujiko: There are a lot of things I want to teach that pure girl.
Kyousuke: I don't think I should let her near her.

03

Kaoru: Toryaaah!!

04

Kaoru: My left hand...
Kaoru: merely guides it...!

Kaoru: Yeaaah!!
Text left of Kaoru: All right!
Touno: To be that good without your powers...
Touno: An esper doesn't deserve that kind of skill...!

Chisato: Touno-kun's doing well.
Chisato: We'll be fine for a couple of minutes.
Aoi: Kaoru's always hanging around, so it's hard to get times like this.

05

Aoi: Kaoru's birthday is July 30th!
[TN: Funnily enough, so is mine.]
Aoi: She'd notice if we started planning once summer break started, so then we couldn't surprise her.
Shiho: Do your best for our birthdays, too.
Shiho: Although we're a little sharper than Kaoru.
Chisato: I don't think it would be possible to surprise you, Sannomiya-san...
Chisato: Just pretend that you didn't figure it out.

Chisato: Umm...
Chisato: We can get our presents individually.
Chisato: And we can do it at your place, right?

Shiho: Yeah.
Shiho: Minamoto-san'll help out.
Shiho: He said he'd take just Kaoru-chan out.
Shiho: When they get back is when we surprise her.

Aoi: Most of the preparations...
Aoi: will be done by the chief...I mean, by a man we know.
Aoi: But I want to do something extra.

06

Aoi: We don't have time, so everyone feel free to suggest your ideas.
Aoi: We won't hold you responsible for suggesting it, so even if it's impossible, say it!
Shiho: Hmm...
Chisato: Something Akashi-san would enjoy...

Yuuri: Um...
Yuuri: Ah, but I guess that's a bit...
Aoi: It doesn't matter!!
Aoi: Tell us!!

Yuuri: Uh...
Yuuri: Um, well...
Yuuri: Y-you could have...well...

Yuuri: Nogami-san, Sannomiya-san and Hanai-san in sexy outfits pop out of the cake...
Text above Chisato: Aloha
Shiho: Well, it's true she'd enjoy that.
Chisato: Actually, something like that happened at my party...
Aoi: Don't exclude yourself so casually!

07

Yuuri: Sorry, I was just kidding.
Text above Yuuri: Eh heh heh

Shiho: What Kaoru-chan would enjoy the most...
Shiho: would be if Yuuri-chan was the one in there, right?
Aoi: Okay, if it comes down to it, we'll go with that!
Yuuri: Eh?

Shiho: You need to take responsibility for suggesting it.
Yuuri: Wait.
Yuuri: That's not what you promised!
Aoi: It's fine, it's fine.
Yuuri: Then what about Hanai-san.
Chisato: Hey, don't try to pass this off to me!

Yuuri: Ah.

Kaoru: You get rid of me...
Kaoru: and then go off having fun talking about girly stuff?

08

Kaoru: No fair!! I want to be a part of this!!
Text on either side of Kaoru: Sensei, I want to talk about girly stuff!!
Kaoru: And then I can take advantage of the confusion to get some skinship!!
Kaoru: Mainly with Yuuri-chan and Chisato-chan!!

Chisato: T-Touno-kuuun!!

Kaoru: Nyah!!

Touno: ...Sorry, Akashi.
Touno: But you weren't paying attention, were you?
Kaoru: What?
Kaoru: Does Chisato-chan have complete control over what your hands do?
Shiho: Kaoru-chan sure has been insistent about skinship lately...
Aoi: She must be letting frustration about something build up.
Yuuri: I need to come up with another idea....

09

Yuuri: I wonder...if she'll like these...

11

Mirage: *smile*!

12

Nai: Uh...!!
Mirage: You tried to sneak up behind me...
Mirage: you have no right to complain if I kill you.

Mirage: Come on out, Theodore!
Mirage: By the way, you can't wear shoes inside Japanese houses.

Theodore: As I expected of you.
Theodore: She's no match for you, Lady Yuuri.
Theodore: Ah...you're "Mirage"-sama right now.

13

Theodore: You were in your "doll" form...
Theodore: I thought I would take the opportunity to take you back to the mansion....

Mirage: "Yuuri" is a false personality I created.
Mirage: To defend against Psychometry and to blend into the lifestyle, I leave most of the actions to her.
Mirage: But she's always connected to me.

Theodore: You're saying you never have your guard down...?
Mirage: Exactly...!

14

Theodore: It may be rude of me, but I sometimes watch how you live.
Theodore: The time spent as "Yuuri"-sama is increasing.
Theodore: And occasionally you don't realize I'm right next to you.

Theodore: During Golden Week, not only did you not come back for the organization's anniversary...
Theodore: but you didn't even call. That made father feel quite down.
Theodore: Aren't you a little too caught up in this game...?
Mirage: Father...

Mirage: I, too, am quite eager to go home...
Mirage: But "Phantom"...

Phantom: Hmph!!
Phantom: Tell that damn old man that I'm not going back!!
Phantom: We've already gotten him plenty of subordinates with our Hypno, so it doesn't matter, right!?

15

Phantom: Your precious Lady "Mirage"...
Phantom: didn't want to be a good girl deep down.
Phantom: And that unconscious wish became independent...!
Phantom: And it's impossible to remove me from her!

Theodore: I thought we had an agreement.
Theodore: If you figure out "The Children"'s Boost...
Theodore: you can take Akashi Kaoru as your doll.

Theodore: You got those earrings for that purpose.
Theodore: They're made of Rare Metal.
Theodore: Why haven't you given them to her yet?

Phantom: W-well...
Phantom: There have been various issues!
Phantom: And you can't just give a present for no reason...
Phantom: And I want to play some more in my new outfit...

16

Mirage: "Phantom"...
Mirage: loves the thrill of fighting those girls.
Mirage: She wants to continue playing with them forever.

Mirage: But, of course, she understands...
Mirage: "Yuuri" will give those as a present...
Mirage: We'll get them to use the Boost.
Mirage: And if we repeat that enough times, we should have it figured out by fall.

Theodore: I don't have to worry now that I've heard that.
Theodore: I'll pass that along to father.
Theodore: You need a sacrifice for the Boost...

Theodore: Will this girl be suitable?

Mirage: This young a girl...?

17

Theodore: She may be young, but her powers are quite something.
Theodore: And...
Theodore: The hypnotism has been especially effective on her.
Theodore: Releasing it may be difficult even for the Boost.

Mirage: Why the blindfold?

Theodore: We cover her face so that she won't get infected with emotion.
Theodore: We're not truly horrible people.
Theodore: We feel a bit guilty when we turned a child into a murderer.

Theodore: Doing this lets her live without being aware that she's human.

Theodore: But don't worry, she doesn't need her eyes.
Theodore: Ah...
Theodore: I need to call a taxi.
Theodore: As a normal, I can't teleport.

18

Mirage: What...
Mirage: is your name and power?
Nai: "Nai".
Nai: I have the power to use shadows and a sensing power.

Nai: Yuuri-sama, there are...
Nai: 4 people inside you...?

Nai: "Phantom", "Mirage", "Yuuri", and...
Nai: who's the other one?

Text in right margin: The fourth personality!? The deepening mystery of "Yuuri"...!!
