Chapter 254

01

Title: Chapter 254 "And the Final Confrontation"

Text on the right: The butler's back on which both his lady's future and Athena's life are carried.

02

Hayate: I will save her...
Hayate: In order to repay milady for the stone...

Hayate: And...
Hayate: From now on, I...

Sakuya: But how are you going to separate them, Isumi-san?
Isumi: When they find out the stone has been destroyed, their point of agreement will have been destroyed and the board chairman's soul will separate from the monster's.

Isumi: And then I will use the legendary treasure and tool passed down by the Saginomiya family,
Isumi: this "Piko-Piko Hammer of the Gods", to kick out the interloper.
Sakuya: There are a lot of problems with having a treasure that's designed like that...

Right margin: For the sake of Hayate who was suffering, his lady has destroyed the stone and, therefore, her right to her inheritance. In response to her feelings, he heads to where Athena is!!

03

Ginka: Yeah, well, it works perfectly.

Sakuya: Ah!! Granny Ginka.
Ginka: Long time no see.

Sakuya: As I'm sure the readers have long since forgotten, you're Isumi-san's great grandmother.
Sakuya: But why are you here?
SFX: *land*
Ginka: Don't refer to me like that. It pisses me off...

Box: Anyone who has actually forgotten...
Box: should check the Shimoda section.

Isumi: I thought I might not be powerful enough myself, so I had her come here.
Isumi: Because of that Machina guy...
Ginka: From what I heard, he's a personification of a snake that defended against Isumi's power...

Ginka: So? What kind of person is this Machina?
Isumi: Let's see...

04

Isumi: He's sort of like that...

Hayate: Ah!! You...!!
Sakuya: It's that snake kid!!
Machina: W-wait!! I'm not here to fight...!!

Machina: Please save...
Machina: Athena...

Hayate: Eh?

05

Ginka: So you're the enemy!!!!

Sakuya: Waiiit!! What are you doing, Granny Ginka!?
Isumi: Listen to what we're saying!!
Ginka: Time to finish him off!!
Sakuya: We're telling you not to finish him off!!

Hayate: But if he's all beaten up like that...
Hayate: we have to hurry...!!
Isumi: Y-yes.

Hayate: We'll leave him to you, Sakuya-san, Great Grandmother Ginka!!
Hayate: Let's go, Isumi-san!!
Isumi: Y-yes!!
Sakuya: Ah!! Wait, Isumi-san!!

06

Sakuya: Here!! Take this cell phone so we can contact each other!!
Isumi: Th-thank you.

Hayate: Bye!!

Sakuya: Hey, you're pretty beaten up. Are you okay?
Machina: Y-yes...

Machina: Hamburgers...
Machina: As long as I have hamburgers, I'll make it somehow...
Sakuya: Hamburgers?

Sakuya: Hey, if that's what you want...
Sakuya: I can make some for you.

07

Machina: Eh?

Sakuya: It seems Nagi and the others are having a party at the hotel, so we can go there.
Sakuya: There are plenty of ingredients there...
Sakuya: so I can make you a bunch of hamburgers.

Sakuya: We don't need to fight.
Sakuya: Instead we can do this and get along.
Sakuya: How's that sound?

Machina: G...
Machina: Great!
Box: That is a very reassuring reply...

Box: Athena's castle

08

SFX: *creak*

Isumi: Yesterday I felt an unusual presence so I came here.
Isumi: I saw a crest that bothered me on the gate, so I tricked them into revealing the truth.

Isumi: But this atmosphere...
Isumi: is pretty bad.

Isumi: They might be uniting faster than I thought.

Hayate: A-tan...

Hayate: Anyway, let's hurry, Isumi-san!!
Isumi: Yes!!

Hayate: But this is a pretty big building...!!
Hayate: Make sure you don't get...

09

Hayate: lost!!
SFX: *suddenly gone*

Hayate: I-Isumi-san!?
Hayate: Umm...!!
Hayate: I told you not to get lost...!!

SFX: *step*

Hayate: Isumi-san. Thank goodness!!
Hayate: You're still nearby.

10

Hayate: Eh?

Hayate: Come to think of it, that Machina guy was all beaten up...
Hayate: Could it be that...

11

SFX: Bam!
Isumi: Hayate-sama!?

Isumi: Hayate-sama.

Isumi: Oh, no...
Isumi: I didn't think Hayate-sama would get lost...
Box: Note: You are the one who is lost.

Isumi: Also...

Isumi: What is that...?

12

Athena: It is a replica of the King's Jewel.
Athena: Using the leyline created by this land of legend...
Athena: I thought I could create a stone as pure as the original...

Athena: But it was no use.
Athena: All the imitation has done...

Athena: is cause more and more legendary monsters to materialize as power is gathered.
Minotaur: Bmoooo!!

Athena: What I need is...
Athena: the original stone...!

13

Hayate: Seriously...
Hayate: Is this an RPG or something...?

Hayate: But...

Hayate: I don't have time...

Minotaur: Bmoooo!

14

Hayate: to play around with you!!!

Hayate: This is...

Athena: Well done getting here.

15

Athena: Thanks for bringing me the stone,
Athena: Hayate...

Hayate: A-tan...

Hayate: Isumi-san!?

16

SFX: *snap*

Athena: Come to think of it...
Athena: we never ended...

Athena: what we started...
Athena: 10 years ago...

Hayate: This is bad...With Isumi-san knocked out...
Hayate: even if I show them the stone, I can't separate them...!!

Right margin: Just like 10 years ago, the two of them face each other with sword in hand. But what of Athena's heart that has been possessed...!?
