Where is the place I truly belong to-?
-pg 01-
Firuka: I wonder if the Miko...is alright.
Firuka: I guess the only thing to do is to stop her.
Firuka: But...if that man comes-
-pg 02-
Firuka: Uruki!? What's wrong!?
Firuka: The light just now...!?
Firuka: ...Uruki?
-pg 03-
Firuka: Are you listening...?
Uruki: Ah...Firuka?
Firuka: Your face is so pale, what's wrong!?
Uruki: Nothing...
Firuka: Alright then. Oh, right...the Miko's having a fever!
Uruki: Takiko!?
Firuka: If you're feeling fine, go see her! She'll feel better.
Uruki: Ahh.
Firuka: Besides that, if it's you, you might be able to stop her from pushing herself on.
-pg 04-
Firuka: Uruki?
Firuka: What's wrong? You're acting strangely!
Uruki: ...I'm sorry. I leave Takiko...to you.
Takiko: ...You came, Haagasu!
-pg 05-
Takiko: The tree trunk over there marks the boundary of the forest.
Takiko: Just one more step...
Takiko: Haagasu.
Haagasu: ...Unfortunately,
Haagasu: right now, I'll probably be thrown back by the forest.
-pg 06-
Haagasu: I came to tell you that it's pointless to wait.
Haagasu: If you want me to your comrade as one of the seishis,
Haagasu: why don't you too come out of the forest.
Takiko: Haagasu...
Takiko: You still don't believe in me?
Takiko: Your heart won't change unless I find Tegu...?
Haagasu: ...You don't understand what kind of feelings we brothers have.
-pg 07-
Haagasu: My brother was captured and his life was taken* because he was born a seishi.
Haagasu: In exchange for my life...
Haagasu: You don't know where Tegu is...Other than Temdan-ou becoming the emperor, there's no other way of finding out.
Takiko: The current emperor, Tegiru, should know the place, right?
Haagasu: It will be easier to ask him but...
Haagasu: In your case, what can you do if you seclude yourself here? ...And you said to bring you to Touran.
*He doesn't mean that Tegu is dead, it's more like Tegu's life was taken because he was imprisoned. Tegu lost his freedom, the life he could have led.
-pg 08-
Takiko: ...Even to the end, he wants to bring me to Temdan-ou.
Takiko: But if I become a prisoner, the other seishis will...
Takiko: But
Haagasu: ...In this case, you should just sit here and wait for this country to perish.
Takiko: Now is a chance to move his heart-!!
-pg 09-
Namame: Miko, no.
Takiko: Namame...!?
Firuka: Miko!?
Firuka: No, you can't step out of the forest!!
-pg 10-
Takiko: Haagasu!! Wait-
Takiko: Haagasu...!!
-pg 11-
Firuka: Miko!
Tomite: Oh? Uruki! Ah, could it be you're going to see Takiko?
Tomite: Since I'm awake, why don't I go with you for awhile? That girl is so stubborn, we have to secretly peep...ah, that sounds so wrong.
Tomite: ...What's wrong, you seem depressed?
-pg 12-
Uruki: ...I'm sorry, but could you wake everyone up?
Uruki: I have something important to say.
Uruki: Hey, it's too bright!
Haagasu: It's useless for you to hide. I know that you are all keeping an eye on me.
-pg 13-
Shigi: I was wondering if you will betray us.
Haagasu: Unfortunately...I won't serve anyone other than Temdan-ou.
Shigi: Oh...aren't you loyal to your master?
Haagasu: It seems like the glaring contest will go on for a while longer. If only the Miko would just come out like that...
Shigi: What...are you talking about?
Firuka: We'll reach the house soon, Miko! You should rest properly for awhile.
Takiko: Yes...
-pg 14-
Takiko: Haagasu...
Firuka: Oh.
Firuka: Uruki! You're right on time, give us a hand...
Uruki: Have you given up on Haagasu?
Takiko: Huh...
Uruki: I see.
Uruki: It is impossible for you after all.
-pg 15-
Takiko: Uruki...?
Firuka: It seems that your fever has gone down a little. I wonder what was wrong with Uruki last night.
Takiko: It's okay...He has always been talking like that. But we became friends like this.
Takiko: That's why, Haagasu too...
-pg 16-
You don't know where Tegu is.
Takiko: If this necklace would at least give a response...
Firuka: Miko...You can't just work hard on your own.
Firuka: You have the seven seishis, don't you?
Firuka: I think you should discuss with them and depend on them more.
Firuka: Or do they exist solely for the purpose of summoning Genbu?
Takiko: Ahh...
-pg 17-
Hikitsu: ...Ahh.
Inami: It's not your fault...
Takiko: That's how it is now! After you guys have finished eating
Takiko: we'll discuss about Haagasu...
Uruki: You still haven't given up?
Takiko: Huh...
Uruki: It's impossible for you. There's no way he'll become a comrade.
Takiko: Ho...how can you say for sure?
Uruki: It's obvious.
-pg 18-
Uruki: You won't be able to find Tegu.
Uruki: You should realise that there are limits to what you can do.
Takiko: What do...you all think...?
Hatsui: U...Umm, Miko-sa...
Tomite: Hatsui!
Hatsui: I too...I too think that it's impossible for Miko-sama...
-pg 19-
Hatsui: We...Well, I'll go help them feed the livestock.
Hikitsu: I agree with Hatsui.
Takiko: Hikitsu!?
Takiko: But! If Haagasu, Urumiya doesn't become one of us
Takiko: we can't summon Genbu.
Hikitsu: In that case
Hikitsu: there's nothing we can do about it.
-pg 20-
Inami: If it comes to that our powers will be somehow come in handy.
Takiko: But Tegu!
Inami: We'll do something without going close to any wind tunnels.
Inami: Speaking frankly, it's troublesome being moved about by you, who have no powers.
Inami: You have a fever again now?
Inami: Leave this country's matter to the people of this country. Young lady, you should keep quiet and go to sleep.
Takiko: Trouble...some?
Takiko: ...Tomite, do you think so too...?
-pg 21-
Tomite: Yeah.
Tomite: You
Tomite: shouldn't do anything.
Tomite: Come!
-pg 22-
Firuka: Uruki!!
Uruki: What is it.
Firuka: I heard about it. Why did you- That girl is the important miko who will save this country!
Firuka: That's right- What happened at the lake!?
Uruki: Don't tell Takiko about that.
Uruki: The Odo tribe too
Uruki: should not need the Miko.
-pg 23-
Takiko: What's wrong with everyone...
Takiko: Why did Uruki suddenly-
Takiko: If we don't summon Genbu, this country will-
Takiko: Besides that...if
Takiko: this world
Takiko: does not need me-
Villager: Isn't this the Miko!?
Takiko: Excuse me, I heard that it is possible to see Touran from here.</i>
-pg 24-
Takiko: ...Please.
Takiko: Please, this necklace, tell me where Tegu is-
Takiko: ...Why!?
Takiko: If I don't find Tegu, I-
Takiko: I will lose any place that I can belong to.
-pg 25-
Hikitsu: So, the Kutou army has begun its advance again.
Tomite: It's because the snow has stopped...It begun snowing earlier than usual this year and it stopped them but...
Tomite: Even with Tegu's obstruction, when it comes to the crucial moment, this arrow will handle it...
Hikitsu: Tomite!
Takiko: ...You guys really plan to somehow handle it on your own.
-pg 26-
Takiko: Does that mean that the Miko...is not needed...?
Hikitsu: Exactly.
Hikitsu: Even if you don't summon Genbu, it will be sufficient...with us here.
Takiko: ...In other words, even if I
Takiko: am not here, it would be fine...?
-pg 27-
Hikitsu: Yes.
Takiko: ...Why...
Takiko: Am I not your friend...!?
Takiko: Uruki...!
-pg 28-
Takiko: Uruki!
Takiko: You, at least...only you-
-pg 29-
Takiko: Uruki...
Uruki: ...Takiko.
-pg 30-
Takiko: That's good...You've really recovered.
Takiko: ...Listen to me. Everyone's saying some strange things. Things like 'The Miko is not needed' and that 'I'm not needed'...That can't
Takiko: be true...*coughs*
Uruki: ...Takiko...
-pg 31-
Uruki: Go back
Uruki: to your own world-
Uruki: Like everyone has said, give up on summoning Genbu.
-pg 32-
Uruki: You're no longer needed in this country...in this world.
Uruki: Go back.
Takiko: Do you seriously...
Takiko: think...so-?
Uruki: Yeah.
Takiko: It's a lie.
Takiko: Just suddenly...this...
Takiko: Then...what about me?
Takiko: Not as a miko or as a seishi!
-pg 33-
Takiko: Are you fine with it if I disappear!?
Takiko: Why!? You even hugged me just recently.
Takiko: At Tomite's village...you said that you like me-
Takiko: Answer me...!!
Takiko: That was why I tried so hard!!
Takiko: No matter what...
-pg 34-
Takiko: I...love you too, so
Takiko: in this world, I just want to be with-
Uruki: In that case, just forget it.
Uruki: Forget me...I will also forget you.
-pg 35-
Uruki: From the start...I was mistaken.
Uruki: There's no way people from different worlds can be together, is there?
Uruki: You should wake up to reality.
Takiko: People
Takiko: from
Takiko: different worlds-
-pg 36-
Takiko: Uruki...
Takiko: That's...right.
Takiko: We are definitely from different worlds...
Takiko: Look
Takiko: this way.
Takiko: But I
Takiko: I know that, but I...
-pg 37-38-
Takiko: From my heart, I
Takiko: love
Takiko: Uruki!
Takiko: you.
Takiko: So why-
-pg 39-
Uruki: ...Ahh.
Uruki: The scent of the Toka seed
Uruki: is no longer...here...
Uruki: No matter...where you go...or how far apart we are
Uruki: I will know.
Uruki: You've really
Uruki: gone to a place I can't reach...another world-
-pg 40-41-
Even so
Even if we never meet again...in this lifetime
As long as you are alive
If you live
As long as you are alive-
Uruki: ...Goodbye,
Uruki: Takiko...
