6 6 301 1 Staessen Keep fighting! Don't you ever fall back! 1
7 7 202 1
8 8 301 With Lamia's retreat, the Corrupted begin to withdraw. The battle, however, has still yet to cease.
9 9 301 The Corrupted were but a catalyst for hatred. The war has its roots in something deeper.
10 10 301 The wounds of war grow, the roars and warcries too.
11 11 201 1 500211
12 12 301 1 Martin It's too late... 1
13 13 202 1
14 14 301 Martin and the others might have done all they could to eliminate the Corrupted, but they have no way to stop this war. After all, who would listen to these outliers?
15 15 301 They can but only stand far, bearing witness to the transience before them.
16 16 301 Or, perhaps, someone might have held an answer to ending this war. An answer that is not defeating the opponent, nor running and leaving the problems behind.
17 17 301 But instead, facing their mistakes—the mistakes made in that loathsome and horrible past.
18 18 301 And that is when they hear the voice ringing throughout the battlefield.
19 19 301 Ringing Voice I'm... sorry.
20 20 201 1 500208
21 21 301 1 Bionic Machine ...? 1
22 22 201 1 500088 4
23 23 301 1 Diana That's... Rosetta's voice? 1
24 24 201 1 500199
25 25 301 1 Staessen Where'd that come from? 1
26 26 202 1
27 27 301 Everyone's communication channels somehow became connected. From a thunderous explosion in the distance, the apology fluttered over.
28 28 301 An apology like a pity-breathing sigh, trailing with tears.
29 29 301 The ARU and the bionic machines both pause.
30 30 301 Slowly, they began to realize the meaning behind these few words.
31 31 201 1 500208
32 32 301 1 Angry Bear Hey, why are you stopping?! We should seize the opportunity and attack! 1
33 33 201 1 500091 1
34 34 301 1 Nanami It's all over! 1
35 35 202 1
36 36 301 Nanami hurls her chainsaw before the warmongering bear model, stopping him in his tracks.
37 37 201 1 500208
38 38 301 1 Angry Bear What?! 1
39 39 201 1 500091 14
40 40 301 1 Nanami That's enough! You heard it too, right? Amberia must have said something as well! 1
41 41 201 1 500208
42 42 301 1 Angry Bear You broke all our receivers! How could we hear Amberia! 1
43 43 201 1 500091 14
44 44 301 1 Nanami Even so... You must still be connected to her in some way! 1
45 45 301 Nanami You must know what Amberia would have said at her final moments! 1
46 46 201 1 500199
47 47 301 1 Staessen That means... Amberia is... 1
48 48 202 1
49 49 301 Staessen realizes the situation through Nanami's words. The explosion likely came from where Amberia was at. As for the apology, that must be what Rosetta said to Amberia.
50 50 201 1 500087
51 51 301 1 Fisher Amberia... Wha...? Wasn't Amberia 'posed to be long... 1
52 52 201 1 500088 4
53 53 301 1 Diana ... 1
54 54 201 1 500199
55 55 301 1 Staessen It's all my fault! 1
56 56 201 1 500088 4
57 57 301 1 Diana Captain?! 1
58 58 201 1 500201 10
59 59 301 1 Simon Captain, what's... Ugh... 1
60 60 201 1 500199
61 61 301 1 Staessen Just lay still, wobbly! 1
62 62 301 Staessen and Simon march out of the crowd. Like Nanami, they stand between the two conflicting armies.
63 63 301 Staessen Amberia... was the greatest sacrifice of the ARU. She was the living proof of our foolishness in the past. 1
64 64 301 Staessen The commanding captain at the time concealed Amberia in an underground base, which caused the tides, the invasions that endlessly tormented the ARU. 1
65 65 301 Staessen No... or should I say. This caused an irreparable gap between us and the bionics. 1
66 66 201 1 500087
67 67 301 1 Fisher Capt., you hiding this from us the whole time? You just let that thing be? What if Amberia went gaga like before...? 1
68 68 201 1 500199 5
69 69 301 1 Staessen That's why I said she's proof of our foolishness! And I'm just another gimboid like them old duds! 1
70 70 301 Staessen's roar stops the indignant fisherman. He continues.
71 71 301 Staessen We've both paid more than enough for the past! Do whatever you want with me! I'll tell you everything you want to know! Just... 1
72 72 301 Staessen Just listen up, everyone! You too, bionics! This is the captain's orders! 1
73 73 301 Staessen Stop this war AT ONCE! Stop all the fighting! I'm not repeating myself! If you don't listen, you'll be branded a sinner... 1
74 74 301 Staessen ...No, that ain't right. That's not what I'm tryna say... The Forest Guards aren't sinners... I... 1
75 75 301 Staessen Just... Just...! Everything's over with! It's all over! 1
76 76 202 1
77 77 301 Staessen cries in the middle of his speech. He himself cannot understand why he did.
78 78 301 Was it from the relief of the ebbing danger? Or certain decisions and resolves in his heart?
79 79 301 As if infected by Staessen, tears also begin to dot the others faces. They support their wounded companions and retreat. Some throw their weapons onto the ground.
80 80 301 The same atmosphere permeates the bionics.
110 109 301 The sun rises like a fiery jewel above the ice-strewn sea. Nanami, leading and along with the bionics, perform a series of unfathomable poses to welcome this sight.
111 110 301 Martin ...Speaking of, Nanami. What should we do now? 1
112 111 201 1 500091 8
113 112 301 1 Nanami Wha—Hey, that's Nanami's question for you! Why did you all come with Nanami anyways?! You're not living with humans like the other bionics? 1
114 113 201 1 500211
115 114 301 1 Martin Well... The humans will probably say nothing about it, but it still feels kinda weird living with the humans after the Amberia stuff, so... 1
116 115 201 1 500091
117 116 301 1 Nanami Do you all feel that way? 1
118 117 201 1 500211
119 118 301 1 Martin Everyone here does. 1
120 119 201 1 500091 1
121 120 301 1 Nanami I see... 1
122 121 301 Nanami Okay then! Follow the adventures of pied chainsawyer Nanami, I'll bring you to your wonderland! 1
123 122 201 1 500211
124 123 301 1 Martin Really? Thank you... Nanami. 1
125 124 202 1
126 125 301 Displaying the Nanami flag known as a chainsaw, she leads Martin and the others behind. Nanami hops, and the bionics hop.
127 126 301 Just like a parade...
128 127 201 1 500091 8
129 128 301 1 Nanami But, it's time for Nanami to make her move too... 1
130 129 301 1 AniZhuanchangBegin Nanami 【kuroname】, the next time we meet, we'll be... 1
