Yuka: Mino-San, Tsurugi should be coming soon. Let’s dig here!
Page 14
Yuka”: Something’s coming out.
Tsurugi: Hah… it’s the mother’s corpse. I guess it had to be hidden in the house a child couldn’t carry it, after all.
Maru: Did you bury it yourself?
Masayoshi: Yeah
Page 15
Maru- So, it must’ve been tough for you. You did well.
But… where am I supposed to go back to?”
“No, no, that’s why… To the academy!!”
Masayoshi: My house? Can’t I come back here?” Am I… going to be arrested?”
Tsurugi: No, nothing like that! Listen, kid!! If you don’t have parents, the academy will take you in,
and you’ll be trained in how to handle curse energy
Maru: …Yeah, that’s right, It’s not that simple, is it?
The familiar scenery, the house full of memories
I’ve lost it all.
That void of lies will probably never be filled.

Maru: Until someday I become someone’s friend
Masayoshi: What’s friend?
Maru: They’re companions who understand why the things you cherish are important.
First, Masayoshi, be my friend!!
I’ll do my best so I can be your friend too!!!
Masayoshi: Ehh—? What should I do?
Maru: Are you hesitating!?
