Mother-like Strengths


>Panel 3
Hmm.... // Zuellni sneaked out from the city's core again, so I was going to ask Nina to help us find Zuellni...

It's been quite some time but Zuellni hasn't returned yet.

Eh....


>Panel 4
Please tell her if you see her.

Ah, (text at bubble edge) // If you're done over there, you can call it a day.

Okay......


>Last Panel
Nina-senpai.... Did something happen, I wonder...?

Good work, everyone.


CSR 120 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Mother-like Strength

Something DID happen!!


>Last Panel
Ah... Layfon, this is terrible, Zuellni is missing!!

If something happened to her, I-

Senpai, please calm down!!

First of all, what's terrible is your condition!!


CSR 121 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I have already checked all the places where Zuellni might go to, but....


>Panel 2
I suppose I should go around one more time....?

Uu----mu (Nina Text)

Rather, just what on earth happened to you?

Let's stop the bleeding first ,okay? (Layfon's Text)


>Panel 3
Aah.... This? // When I was searching outside just earlier, I passed through a cat gathering spot and...... you see...

nya nya nya nya nya (Small Text)

Captain VS Pussy Cats!! (VS Text)

Why didn't you take another route? (Layfon Thought)


>Panel 4
However, when I succeeded passing through that spot, the kid of the giant chicken I defeated last time stood in my way....

I wonder if it escaped from the agriculture dept. (Text)

OOOOOOOHH (Top Bold Text)

Captain VS Giant Chicken Jr.!! (VS Text)

The vengeance of the chicken!? (Text)

It was such a sorrowful battle....


>Last Panel
The victory of that battle was but a fleeting one------ This time, I came across upon a hang-out of some delinquent gang.....

UOOOH! (Top Bold Text)

Captain VS Delinquent Group!! (VS Text)

WE TALKED TO EACH OTHER THROUGH OUR FISTS!!

You had lost sight of your original objective by then, right?

The world-reforming sensei? (Text)


CSR 122 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Captaaaaain! (Cut Off Text)

UOOOH----
Captaaaaain! (Text)

I'll follow you anywhere! (Cut Off Text)

Well, when you try talking to them they were actually good men, you see?

....Mu....? // Now that I think about it, I don't think we knew each other, but they were calling me "captain" for some reason....?

I....I think they meant something different from a platoon captain...!!


>Panel 2
Okay, // I will go search outside one more time.

Eh?

You are done for the day right? // Good work.


>Panel 3
A-are you going to search again NOW?

Yes, that's right?


>Panel 4 (NOTE: Zuellni is also written as "The heart of the city" or "the city's consciousness" )
Well, what's happening to Zuellni is definitely a serious matter, but.... // It's already so late, so I think we should leave the searching to the Student Council and the City Police.

You should take a good rest just in case something serious does happen, senpai.


CSR 123 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
.... // I suppose so....

That's right, // we have morning training too...


>Panel 2
Then.... Layfon, could you please send the message to the police on your way home?

Eh?


>Panel 3
I will search for Zuellni.


>Panel 5
Senpai....

If you look at it from the beginning, it might seem like pointless efforts.... // However, if I gave up here and it turned out something serious did happen, // I will surely blame myself, thinking why I stopped searching for her at that time.


>Last Panel
I just do not want to have any regret.


CSR 124 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
This person-----


>Panel 3
She's always.... how can she always be so straightforward and persevering....?

Even though it's not rare that all this hardwork could turn out to be just another fruitless effort...


>Panel 4
To do what you think is right----


>Panel 5
Is she not afraid of being denied by everyone and everything....?


>Panel 6
Hm?


>Panel 7+Last
Ah.

Nothing....

Behind you!


CSR 125 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Zuellni!!


>Panel 2
Where have you been!!?

I was really worried!!


>Panel 4
Oi!?


>Panel 5+6
Wait! // Just where are you...


>Panel 8
Woah!?


>Last Panel
Waaah!

Senpai?!


CSR 126 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Wow......


>Panel 3
What a pretty flower garden....

To think there's such a place next to the machinery dept.


>last Panel
I have never seen such flowers.

Are these wild flowers....?


CSR 127 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
....Senpai.... she had hard time running around searching.... // But the one she's been looking for was so close all this time...

She must be really down right now----

Ah, um---- sen.....


>Panel 4
pai....

Thank you, Zuellni.


>Panel 5
If you didn't tell me,

this flower garden... // I'm sure I would never know of it even until I graduated.


>Last Panel
Above all----


CSR 128 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I am glad that you are well.


>Panel 3
Hm? // What is it?

No....


>Panel 4
....Senpai, you sure are strong.

HAH?


>Panel 5
Coming from you, I can only hear that as sarcasm!!

Oh, no, I wasn't talking about military arts...


>Last Panel
Later. (Box)

Dude, (handwritten inside bubble)
Nina, don't ya think your fan base looks like delinquents?

Uooooh, captaaaain~~~!!

They are pure deep down in their heart!!

A big thank you to the readers, those who were
involved in the making and everyone else!

At any rate, I wonder what will happen if the captain
is gradually getting less intelligent....
