Saude |
…How did you manage to win without even using any wishpower? |
|
|
Saude |
No, before any of that, what made you so sure that you’ll win regardless? |
 |
RODION |
Yikes, hold your horses, gal… One question at a time. Okay? |
|
|
RODION |
The Tieqiu Crew’s boss had been keeping a wary eye on the Tingtang Gang’s all along. |
 |
MEURSAULT |
How did you know that? You couldn’t have read the tells from his mechanical body. |
|
|
RODION |
He had every reason to. After all, it was a well-known fact to them that the Tingtang Gang owned a wishpower extractor. |
|
|
RODION |
He must’ve been totally sure that the boss or someone representing him would make use of it for this game. |
 |
Effie |
So… You deliberately made it look like you were using a sticker so that he’d call you out on it? |
|
|
RODION |
Yup! Then I declared I’m going all in~ I needed to seem suspiciously ballsy in his eyes. |
|
|
RODION |
A winning gambler creates her own momentum and rides it. Fuhu. |
|
|
Saude |
…… |
|
|
RODION |
I mean, look. Even you guys thought I’d popped the wish stickers, right? |
|
|
RODION |
If I’m being real, wish stickers and all that stuff are just hopes and desires given important-sounding labels in the end. |
|
|
RODION |
To someone with unshakable faith in themselves, it’s nothing more than a weird piece of paper. |
|
|
Saude |
That can’t be true… J Corp’s wishpower-related tech is an officially approved semi-Singularity with widely proven efficacy. |
|
|
Saude |
Thousands of people rely on wishpower for every aspect of their lives… |
|
|
RODION |
I guess there’s nothing like it to give people a confidence boost in this day and age. |
|
|
RODION |
But me? I’m different. |
|
|
RODION |
I’ve always believed in myself. |
 |
YI SANG |
…To have faith means that the mind may avoid crashing into the depths. |
|
|
YI SANG |
Pray tell, how does one go about acquiring that faith? |
|
|
RODION |
Oh, that? It’s actually super simple. I’ll let you in on the secret, so listen up. |
 |
SINCLAIR |
Ooh… |
|
|
RODION |
Just think: “I’m the most awesome person in the world, so whatever anyone else says is crock shit!” |
 |
FAUST |
That certainly makes sense. Faust agrees as well. |
|
|
SINCLAIR |
…… |
|
|
YI SANG |
…Perhaps I shouldn’t have asked at all. |
 |
DANTE |
<Rodya… Don’t tell me that’s how you’ve been treating my words…?> |
|
|
RODION |
Hold on a sec! There was no point in us winning the game then! |
|
|
RODION |
Why do we have to be so sneaky about this? And who are those slaves picking away at rocks? |
|
|
Saude |
Although we’ve earned ownership… we have nothing proper to show as proof that we won, and we’re more or less intruders to them. |
 |
ISHMAEL |
Quite the grand excavation. They even made space to insert vaults, all the while digging a tunnel. |
|
|
RODION |
What a stunning sight… When I die, please bury me in a mound of cash like that. I want to fill my lungs with the scent of bills for my final breath. |
 |
GREGOR |
By the way, about that man who was at the table… Did you know him from somewhere? |
|
|
RODION |
…A friend from back home. |
|
|
DANTE |
<Something tells me the history between you two runs deeper than just that.> |
|
|
RODION |
Greg, love, reunions are always uncomfortable. Didn’t you feel the tension that time you ran into your former comrades? |
|
|
GREGOR |
…Can’t argue with that. |
 |
HONG LU |
Things are moving inside these cages. |
|
|
HONG LU |
Are they pets they might be raising, perhaps? |
|
|
ISHMAEL |
…Does your family usually count creatures violently shaking their cages as pets? |
|
|
FAUST |
It’s the Peccatula. |
|
|
DANTE |
<Did they think they could tame Abnormalities?> |
|
|
GREGOR |
Dear Yuri would’ve knocked three grown adults out cold with a scoff if she heard that. |
|
|
SINCLAIR |
Oh, Yuri… |
|
|
FAUST |
It should be theoretically possible. |
|
|
FAUST |
Provided that they possess a similar level of intelligence to humans and that an empirically proven method of managing them exists, that is. |
|
|
ISHMAEL |
Huh… If it did work out, I guess they could’ve made good guard dogs. |
|
|
HONG LU |
Oh? I’m taking a closer look, and these people have fingers or other parts of their bodies bitten off. |
|
|
HONG LU |
…Is this in fashion these days? |
|
|
DANTE |

GREGOR |
Tch… We’ve got security guards and Peccatula… This is starting to be a bother… |
|
|
RODION |
Got any ideas, Greg? You fought on the frontlines before. Try something. |
|
|
GREGOR |
What does that have— Hey, don’t push! |
 |
Captive Debtor |
……? |
|
|
GREGOR |
…… |
|
|
GREGOR |
H… Hey there, looks like the way things are going here isn’t all too pretty for the both of us, ‘ne? How about we let this slide? |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
…… |
|
|
GREGOR |
We’re not after the cash stored in that vault. |
|
|
GREGOR |
I mean, wouldn’t say no if we were offered it—but the point is, we’re just looking for a way downstairs. |
|
|
GREGOR |
Not here to make any fuss. Why don’t we pretend this never happened and go our own ways? |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
F… Four… |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
Forty-seven million, nine hundred and twenty thousand… |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
Forty-seven million, nine hundred and ten thousand… Forty-seven million, nine hundred thousand… |
 |
RYŌSHŪ |
Speak some sense, or I’ll BARF on your hands. |
|
|
SINCLAIR |
I can’t say for sure, but I think she meant she’ll “break all the remaining fingers” on that person’s hands… |
|
|
DANTE |
<…At this point, I’m more scared of how quickly you got that.> |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
Must repay… |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
Repay all the debt… before I can go back to my family… |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
They said they’ll take off 1 Ahn for every swing… Forty-seven… How much…was it… Aack! Don’t talk to me! I have to count… |
 |
Rigid Security |
Hold on? What’s that noise over there? |
|
|
GREGOR |
Ah, shoot… |
|
|
GREGOR |
We… We can’t live like this anymore! |
|
|
GREGOR |
This is… outrageous… tyranny! To tie people up and force them to dig! |
|
|
GREGOR |
Let us all… rise up… and fight our oppressors…! Go, onwaaard!! |
|
|
DANTE |
<……> |

Captive Debtor |

Rigid Security |

 |
HEATHCLIFF |
The hell was that? |
|
|
MEURSAULT |
Propaganda. His effort has regrettably ended in failure. |
|
|
RODION |
Greg, sweetie… Here’s the thing about those people… They ended up here by living their whole lives as scum—exploiters and exploitees. |
|
|
RODION |
You weren’t expecting some half-baked speech to be enough to wake up the revolutionary inside them, were you? |
 |
OUTIS |
…Before you attempt an instigation operation next time, be sure to train your acting skills to at least an intermediate level. |
|
|
RODION |
Oh, Greg… Have you never tried acting in your whole life? |
|
|
GREGOR |
Scheibenkleister… Look, I’m embarrassed myself… |

Rigid Security |
G-Get them away from me! Hurry! |
|
|
Captive Debtor |
…Forty-seven million, nine hundred… |
|
|
GREGOR |
So we did get help from the debtors after all. |
|
|
RODION |
Just a coincidence. |
