MN.J.: ......

Rose: There's...only fifteen days left. Either I finish the exhibition and return home safely...

or...die either before or after that...

I...

would like it to be the former...

MN.J.: You won't die...

Rose: .......

MN.J.: Since you made a contract with me.

Anchovy: Big Bro!

Big bro...I can'st stand this anymore!

I don't care whether or not I become a killer, just lend me a gun!

Rose: What the heck are you talking about...?

Anchovy: Look at this! This bastard is pretending to be an angel again!

I won't let him...I'll kill him! Even now, someone might be suffering!

Big bro! Please lend me a gun!

MN.J.: What could you do wit a gun...?

Anchovy: It's a gun, so I'll just shoot it at him!

Whatever I do, his sins doesn't get exposed!

The only option is to kill him!

MN.J.: No.

Anchovy: Ugh!

MN.J.: Nothing will change even if you have a gun in your hand.

Anchovy: Big bro...you say that to the end...

alright! I don't need a gun or big bro!

I'll kill him with my two hands! That bastard!

I won't come here any longer, so see you in hell!

Rose: What's up with him?

MN.J.: ......

He's like that because he wants revenge...

Rose: Revenge?

MN.J.: He was a normal human like everyone else.

Everyone saw him as normal...

(black box - use anime ace font): Except his father was a killer like me...

his mother was suffering from a serious disease and was in a hospital...

the only reason these things didn't affect him was because Maan Gil was naturally nice.

since he thought that his father would be distressed

he pretended he didn't know his father's job

anchovy: You must be tired~ I'll massage your back!

(dad): Ah...that feels good, since it's my son...

(mom): You must be tired studying...you don't need to come here everyday...

anchovy: Mom, you are more tired than me! It's not hard to come to the hospital...after all, I come to see you!

(mom): My son is too nice...

Anchovy: Hihihihi~

You'll get better soon!

(black box): Even while he looked after his mother

he didn't stop smiling.

He was the kind of guy who could smile in any kind of situation.

but as time passed his mother's sickness worsened

and came to the point where it wouldn't be weird if she died.

Anchovy: Mom...

don't be sick...

(black box): Maan Gil was getting restless...

it's hard for me to understand his feeling, but he says he couldn't hide his sadness because he loved his mother dearly.

Then one day he got in a fight after drinking a bit

and was told an interesting fact by the Trace Detection Team while creating a file.

(man): Yes, it's true...for one thing we know that you are speaking the truth, but we would need to investigate just what power you have.

Anchovy: So...I...was born a "Trace"...?

(man): Yes...you are a "Trace".

(black box): Maan Gil realized that he was a "Trace" and could smile again after knowing his power.

Anchovy: Then...whatever the sickness...I can absorb it?

(doctor): Yes...but we do not know what will happen after it.

Anchovy: What...happens after...doesn't matter...

it doesn't matter...

(black box): He didn't know that the absorbed diseases disappeared after a year
but he ran to his mother regardless of what would happen to him.

(box): You can live!

You can live!

Wait a little bit longer!

I'll heal you!

You won't hurt anymore!

(black box): Luckily, he absorbed the sickness just the day before the big surgery

Anchovy: Mom...

If I do this...I can absorb your sickness!

You'll be fine now, mom!

Thank you

for waiting this long!

Egh!

Kuhuk!

Haaak!

Ugh...mom...

you were...hurting this much...

(black box): After he absorbed it, he fainted from the excruciating pain.

He went down smiling

knowing he had cured his mother's sickness.

Anchovy: But it's fine now...heheh...

Rose: That story...?

MN.J.: Yes...

(black box): Maan Gil regained consciousness late next day...

Anchovy: Wha...what are you saying...?

(surgeon): I'm sorry...we tried our best on the surgery, but it didn't work...

Anchovy: No...that's not true...

why...why would my mom die...?

I...I healed her...

(surgeon): Eh...?

Anchovy: I healed my mom, so why the hell did she die?! Don't lie to me! Where's my mom?! Where?!

(surgeon): Pl...please calm down! I understand you feel deeply sad! But we tried our best...

Anchovy: Tried our beat?! There was no disease to heal in the first place!

You people are trying to coverup killing a person by mistake!

Bring my mom back! I said bring my mom back!

BRING MY MOTHER BACK!

(black box): It was obvious that it was the hospital's fault...
but whatever Maan Gil did was no use.

The hospital ignored Maan Gil's every actions and in order to keep their reputation

they stopped all news of them in the media.

(the paper anchovy is holding): The hospital is killing patients and trying to lie about it
We must know the truth!

(black box): And a little bit later...

Anchovy: Dad...I'm home...

......

(black box): He saw the corpse of his dad...

who was having mental disorders after his wife's death.

MN.J.: After that Maan Gil came to me, asking to make him into a killer.

He's always smiling...

but he's crying inside...

Anchovy: I remember...

It hurt a lot at the time,

but I remember clearly...

(bubbles): We laid your son down safely. I think he's just exhausted.

Ah...but I don't hurt anymore....

If you're in a lot of pain, you could feel that it's normal and that you aren't feeling any pain.

No...it doesn't hurt at all...

Hahaha, it's a nice sign! The surgery will go well.

It's weird....I feel fine...

(space): Don't...do it...

my mom...is healed...

don't do it...doctor...
