: "What I wanted to say was that I want to do something important, something that doesn't die when I do." | |||
"Are you starting again ... ?" | |||
: "Daya, we all will die. – Sooner or later. – I don't want to give up but it got difficult to endure this thought..." | |||
"..." | |||
They were still inside the raman micro-store. Small drizzle drops ran down the plastic shelter.<br>Both paused and looked into the moving crowd. | |||
"Asking for the ''eternal question''... – Can't you simply come to terms with this?" | |||
: "And live on because we are programmed to do so? – I don't want this to be everything." | |||
"..." | |||
: ''Since I don't know the answer – what to do – Nihilism tries to invade my brain.'' | |||
: ''...'' | |||
: ''No matter how people try to distract themselves... They can deny it but it bugs them. | |||
: ''The one answer is missing. The understanding, the explanation to our existence that would formulate aims. – And so we don't know what to do.'' | |||
: ''That's why there's all this aimlessness. Quarreling. Injustice. Hate. War.'' | |||
: ''That's why we are restless souls.'' | |||
Nishio laid tired this face in his left open hand, the elbow resting on the table. | |||
"Let's chink glasses." | |||
The young man turned his head towards voice's origin. Daya was really rising a glass. | |||
"For the hope, Nishio. For the hope."<br>"The one thing that shall never die." | |||
: A small grin were playing in his face. ''She has a way that makes her words difficult to reject.'' | |||
===Talk with a centipede=== | |||
<!-- ''To understand the chrysalis we need to understand ourself before.'' | |||
[...] --> | |||
"Why do you know so much about the Chrysalis?" | |||
: "It's my job to know much, and I'm doing my job good..." | |||
"Hmpf..." | |||
: Mukade laughed. "I would be a bad shinobi if I tell you all my secrets." | |||
Her words sounded bitter. "Yes, probably." | |||
: "Hey... It doesn't mean I don't help you as good as I can." | |||
... | |||
: "But Daya, you should think about a place where to go when you are going to lose." | |||
She clenched her fist. "It won't get to that point." | |||
: "Sometimes you need to accept your defeat or it gets even worse." | |||
"Did your death helped to reach this understanding?" | |||
: "How do you know ... ?" | |||
"Such things get around, Mukade." | |||
The man buries his face in his hand. | |||
Daya couldn't resist mocking him. "Do you grieve about your face as invincible phantom? The Shadow became a shadow of himself, haha." | |||
: "You have no idea about the scope but thanks for reminding me. -- I have to go now. Continue your training." | |||
"Hey Mukade. What interest do you actually have in my surviving?" | |||
: "When you would die by a takeover of your Chrysalis from the Bioc ... an even more powerful pattern could have evolved from the struggle. And when it finds its way back to the main mass located in GV... then we do have a real problem. That's why your surviving is in my interest." | |||
"Wouldn't it be easier to eliminate me and the risk of fail?" | |||
: "... Yes, that's right..." Mukade leaves. | |||
"Shinobi... Am I only a new weapon to him?" | |||
