-Hm...

-What the...?

-What happened?

-Izumi!?

-Hey, come on.
Izumi!

-0.42 It Begins

Page 2

-Gah.

-Did Izumi put this on me...

-She's breathing...it looks like she just fainted.

-Sleeping gas...?

-Someone did this...

-Hah

-Hah

-Hah

-Probably the same one as the person who locked the doors.

-Dammit...I'm so unsteady...

-Hah

-Hah

Page 3

-Hah

-Hah

-042. It Begins

Page 4

-You cannot go any closer!

-Kogami-san, this way.

-Kaede disappeared somewhere around here...

-Yes.
She disappeared very suddenly.

-And she dropped these.

-Kaede...

-Where are you...

Page 5

-Isn't that...

-President Shirokane!?

-Are you okay!?

-K-Kogami-kun...

-Inside...

-Someone....

-President...President Shirokane!

-It's okay, he's breathing.

Page 6

-Judging by the situation it looks as though the President barely escaped from someone setting off sleeping gas inside.

-Tonogaya-san...please take care of the Company President.

-You don't mean to...

-There's only one mask.

-So I'll go looking.

-It's dangerous...we should just wait until the police arrive.

-No, I cannot wait.

-Not while Kaede might in danger...

-Tonogaya-san...I'll look for your fiance Maria as well.

-I guess you're right.

-I'll come too though.

-Eh?

-By coincidence...or should I say being crazy prepared...

Page 7

-This is a researcher's stock and trade.

-We can leave him sleeping in the car.
The police or someone else should notice him later.

-Let's go.

-Who...?

Page 8

-Hey, what's going on.

-All communication has been blocked from Wahre Liebe so nobody knows.

-Mother, can't we enter via teleportation? Perhaps I could use my magic...

-That's not possible. My ability can't penetrate building walls.
And your ability isn't enough to tear through that protective shield.

-I can't help...

-But feel a very ominous sense of dread about this.

-My father...

Page 9

-Shinobu!?

-For some reason I feel really good...

-Are you...okay?

-Yeah.

-It appears as though the thing inside has gone to sleep.

-I was losing the ability to control the power but that all changed just now...

-I feel like he's sleeping now...although
He's still inside me.

-Did the creator of the seal regain their vitality...

-Or is it that...

Page 10

-Hey, hey, hey, is that alright!? To let this dangerous bastard outside!?
If he gets out of control he'll annihilate us all!

-If he appears again...

-I'll take myself out.

-Keh,
Suicide huh...thanks I guess.

-Shinobu...

-More importantly, I'm worried about my father.

Page 11

-All of the employees have been knocked out...

-What the hell's going on, FFS...

-Kogami-san...

-What's this blood trail...!?

-It keeps going down here.

-Let's follow it...

-It's from this room.

Page 12

-What the fuck...!

-Human experimentation!?

-This is so messed up and cruel...who did this...

Page 13

-I'm not sure who, but it looks like they're already gone...

-They've taken all their notes and data away...

-Tonogaya-san...

-This operating table is still warm...

-Could it have been...

-Maria!?

-I can't see Kaede either...
Where were they taken...

Page 14

-Tonogaya-san watch out!

Page 15

Page 16

-A mysterious explosion was just heard inside the Wahre Liebe building.

-The building just shook violently!

-Father...

-Can we go there!?

-We can get as far as the outside.

-Please take me...!

-Hey shitty cop, you're coming too!

-Hey, why do I have to!?

-You might be useful.

-This is bullshit!

-Hold on everyone.

Page 17

-Kuhuhu.

-The 2nd Lab I had prepared in advance...

-We'll set up base here.

-Although...

Page 18

-We've nearly achieved our goal anyway...

-Papa, what do I need to do now?

-We move into the final stage of the plan.

-Eliminating Fukumoto Tsukune...

Page 19

-But her magic...her magical power is extremely powerful.
We won't be able to deal with her easily.

-However according to "The Catastrophe of the End",

-The ritual requires gathering 13 Mahou Shoujo of one generation...

-Because of an accidental death there are only 12 Mahou Shoujo left in the 8th Generation

-So to gather 13 we need the next generation, the 9th Generation.

-But that Tsukune lady doesn't have a child
So then...

-We might need to capture her and keep her alive rather than eliminate her.

-By the way...I couldn't help but wonder,

-What happens when you perform the ritual?

Page 20

-To find that out we need Fukumoto Tsukune...

-The torn off scrap which she has explains everything about the ritual.

-It was something "they" wrote.
and I'm going to find out what.

-They?

-You don't,
Need to know that.

Page 21

-You just need to act as I tell you to.

-Which reminds me...

-I still haven't decided on a name for you yet...

-How about Himeji Wataru?

-I don't have time to think of another one,
So you can inherit the name of that scrap from earlier.

-I can inherit it...

-Thanks.

-It's good.

-Wataru then...

Page 22

-Ow!

-Se-se-se-seriously! We teleported to the outside of the building!?

Page 23

-Oh my god...

-What is it Mikano...

-Shinobu, don't come any closer!

-What do you mean don't come...

-F...

Page 24

-Father!

-The...Company President.

-He has no pulse...

-How could this be...

Page 25

-Aaaaaaahhhhhhh

Page 26

-Who is that....

-Those are....

-Definitely...

Page 27

-It has been two months since the mysterious explosion at the global Pharmaceutical company Wahre Liebe...

-As well as the death of its President Shirokane Sou and the disappearance of several of its employees.

-It's still unclear what caused the incident.

-Nobody is still allowed inside the building,

-However numerous people have left flowers around the outside as part of Shirokane-san's funeral.

-President...

Page 28

-Looks like both of our wounds were completely healed.

Page 29

-The doctors are amazed. They were fatal wounds but we made a full recovery. They're calling it a miracle.

-But really...

-It was Tsukune-san who healed us wasn't it?

-Yes.

-Though I was half conscious,

-It was undeniably her.

-To think,
You and Tsukune were childhood friends...

-I had no idea....

-That Tsukune was a Mahou Shoujo...

Page 30

-She quit her work at the Kindergarten and I don't know where she lives.

-She was avoiding me all this time...even now.

-I haven't seen her since then...

-I can only think of one reason why she would be avoiding you.

-In order to avoid giving birth to the child needed for the ritual mentioned in the scripture.

-Tsukune and...me?

-But I'm with Kaede...

-No...I think I know why.

-For some reason, she is concerned that if you and her have a child,

-It may be used as part of the ritual.

-What exactly is this ritual about...

Page 31

-Among archaeologists, scientists and researchers there has been a mysterious bit of scripture known as the "Catastrophe of the End".

-I've recently been absorbed with deciphering it in my study.

-Fortunately I've successfully deciphered nearly everything. There's only one remaining part which is missing.

-*Something * will happen if the ritual is completed, but without the missing piece I am not sure what.

-Where is it...

-I'm not sure...

-And, who on earth wrote that?

-That's a mystery as well.

-Humans...

-Or perhaps

-Something...not human.

Page 32

Page 33

-Mother...

-Father...

-So you were here...

-What is it Mikano.

-Mother is calling for you.

Page 34

-So

-How did your research go.

-At that time, I had worked out about the Mahou Shoujo blood.

-The blood sample's DNA didn't have any effect upon the female body...
But

-Once even a little entered a male body, the cells would violently react and the body start breaking down.

-Because of that I fell into a coma.

-So...I had realised that much.
But other than that the blood itself shouldn't have been a problem
Or so I thought...

Page 35

-I hadn't noticed at that time, but that blood...
Has a special gene which will mix into any cell on earth.

-A special gene?

-It's a special gene where inside a single cell there is a will, a sort of behavioural principle which acts exactly like a lifeform.

-In other words,

-"The Original Demon"

-Why would that blood have the Demon's genes...

-I'm not sure.

-Maybe someone mixed it in...or maybe it was there from the start.

-Is there no way to remove it?

-The will inside the cell moves extremely quickly...
That by itself cannot be removed at the present time.

-If we could stop just that cell's activity,

-Then I would need to be drained of blood...so basically

Page 36

-I would need to die.

-We've finished investigating.

-Do you have any idea how big a task that was.

-These are records of all the surveillance camera footage of President Shirokane over the past few months.

-These ones are of particular importance.

-The President was having secret meetings across the last few months...I thought it seemed pretty fishy.

-Do you think there's anything to it...?

-That guy is...

Page 37

Page 38

-Welcome home.

Page 39

-Kii-kun!

-Hold on there.

-Don't move an inch you hear? If you so much as budge Wataru will tear a hole through his heart.

-Who are you people...

-We've come for the fragment about the "Catastrophe of the End".

-How do you know about that...

-I know Fukumoto Tsukune...

-That you stole the fragment from the "Exorcist's" companions...

-How could...you...

-Come now...would you just hand it over.

Page 40

-Alright fine!

-I'll do it, I'll give it to you...so please...
Don't hurt that person.

-Fine then...

Page 41

-Truly...

-Space.

-Truth.

-Existence.

-Reality.

-It's the power to control the entire dimension...you could shape the world...no the whole universe is in the palm of your hands.

-The ritual...

-It grants the ability to obtain the same strength...the same power as the Demon's Power.

-Kukukukukuh..
Such an superb thing!

-It's perfect!

-My reading was correct! After all this time of pursuing it I finally have it!

Page 42

-Hahahaha! Wataru, capture that woman.

-We will start collecting the 13 Mahou Shoujo right no-

Page 43

-ow!!

Page 44

-Wa...

-Wataru...you cunt...
Have you...gone mad!?

-No that can't be...
You were meant to do exactly as I programmed you to...

-My experiment...my plans were perfect...why...

-Programmed? Huhu...

Page 45

-You're pretty stupid.

-What...

-A betrayal...?

-That's for what you did to my body, Baldie.

-I had planned to dispose of you after you had deciphered the ritual's instructions, but didn't think you would be so fast.

-Wataru! Are you...
Planning on taking the Demon's Power for yourself!?

Page 46

-Exact~~ly

-Now die...
Bitch.
