The Remnant of the Emerald

1 Eyes as clear as the azure sky.
That is how you tell a "Contractor.
" The stigma of the wind, marked on the one who has been entrusted with the entire world's atmosphere by the Spirit King of the Wind.
A blast of wind in my heart Tatta hitotsu no itami ga omokute Hashiri dasu kanjo kurayami wo kakeru Kioku ga kagi wo hazushita Blast of wind Kono mama unmei wa mizu no you ni hitori deni ugoki hajimeru Nikushimi ni dakare hontou no kagayaki shirazuni kono te wa yogosare tsuzukete yuku no ka Mata yume mireru ka kikasete A blast of wind in my heart softly blowing through my heart The last one! Y-You Lapis! This is the end! Kazuma! What did you do that for all of a sudden? Kazuma? Will you protect me? Tsui-Ling What? Tsui-Ling? No How dare you! What are you so upset about? You just got to reunite with the lover that you were bereaved of.
Lover?! There's no way Tsui-Ling is alive.
You people stole everything! Her heart and body You made the devil eat away everything! She no longer exists anywhere! Oh, I know, because I was there four years ago.
What? Lapis, come over here.
Yes, Master.
The thoughts the girl named Tsui-Ling left behind when she died Lapis was created with that residual consciousness.
That's just an imitation! You just dismiss her as an imitation? When she's the spitting image of the girl you once loved, yet couldn't protect because of your powerlessness? What does this all mean? That girl and Kazuma used to be? That's enough.
That's enough! Just die! What? Well, I guess I'll call it a day now.
W-Wait! You're not getting away! I've granted the young people in this country great power.
I've given the same power to Lapis as well.
Lapis' class is "sword master.
" Now show them what you're made of! Yes, Master.
Wh-What is that? Destroy everything.
Big sis! I'm okay.
Kazuma! Bernhardt! We shall meet again, if we're linked by fate! Wait, Bernhardt! Bernhardt! Why? Why did it turn out this way? I was chosen, that's all! Because I'm smarter than everybody else.
So why why is this happening? It's all Nanase's fault.
If only she didn't exist I wonder if everyone's going to retaliate I really don't want that to happen.
I didn't do anything wrong That's right.
It's Vesalius' fault.
He gave me power like that without my knowledge.
I'm just a victim here.
He's the one they need to arrest! Wh-What is this? The footage released to the general public will be a modified version of this.
We're planning to report the incident to the media as an explosion.
At any rate, what you did was reckless.
I'm just surprised all three of you managed to escape that.
Kazuma used the wind to let us escape.
If it weren't for big brother, we would've been So, have you heard from my idiot son yet? No, we haven't.
He's been missing ever since he rescued us.
Right in the middle of the crisis He's so useless.
Father! Ren.
Ayano, you need to be prepared for the next time you face this enemy.
I'm aware of that, Father.
But Pandemonium has been destroyed.
Won't the enemy lay low for a while? We can't be so certain of that.
This was shot after Pandemonium was destroyed last night.
"Congratulations on your level-up.
Now you can acquire more power by changing your class" "Congratulations on your level-up.
Now you can acquire more power by changing your class" It's written in blood? "Congratulations on your level-up.
"Congratulations on your level-up.
Now you can acquire more power by changing your class.
" Isn't this "We welcome you to Pandemonium.
Do you wish to change your class?" Look at this.
"We welcome you to Pandemonium.
Do you wish to change your class?" "We welcome you to Pandemonium" Don't tell me this is Yeah.
There's a new Pandemonium.
So this bloody writing must be a message from that place then.
What's that handprint next to the last line? There's "yes" next to "no.
" That's the choice he made.
He? Kosuke Utsumi.
What did you say?! What's that supposed to mean?! This bloody writing was found in his isolation cell.
He escaped from the cell last night.
It looks like he moved to a different space.
With the power of Pandemonium.
Do you realize what kind of mess-up you guys have made?! If he escapes, he'll go after Nanase first! Is she okay?! Don't worry about her.
We've provided around-the-clock security for her.
She'd better really be okay! If something happens to Nanase Calm down, Ayano.
Has that message only been sent to the boy named Utsumi? No, it's reached others, too.
"We welcome you to Pandemonium.
Do you wish to change your class?" "We welcome you to Pandemonium.
Do you wish to change your class?" This information hasn't been confirmed yet, "We welcome you to Pandemonium.
Do you wish to change your class?" But it looks like four to five people with supernatural abilities "We welcome you to Pandemonium.
Do you wish to change your class?" Have changed their classes between yesterday and this morning.
Have changed their classes between yesterday and this morning.
The enemy's activity has entered a new phase.
Is that it, Detective Tachibana? You're exactly right.
Who is the enemy? The leader's name is Vesalius.
However, it appears to be an alias.
Now that I think I about it, Kazuma called the man "Bernhardt.
" Right.
I heard big brother talking to him.
His real name is Bernhardt.
Bernhardt Rhodes.
What?! Is that true, Ren? I'm sure of it.
Bernhardt Rhodes He's the council chairman of Almagest.
Almagest? You mean the magical association? It's not just an ordinary magical association.
They have been active mainly in Europe.
It's an influential organization known as the leading authority in modern magic arts.
But do you think a person of authority like that would get involved in such wicked deeds? Hmm Perhaps it's the work of someone assuming his name I believe it's probably the real him.
Based on what? Almagest has a grudge against Kazuma-san.
And the girl named Tsui-Ling, who's the basis of Lapis, is involved.
Tsui-Ling? Wait a second! Did you know about that girl? Yes.
Then why didn't you say anything about it?! Ayano-chan.
What?! Everyone has secrets that they don't want others to find out.
If you knew such a secret, could you tell it to others? Detective Tachibana.
You're absolutely right about that.
But apparently the existence of that girl has a great meaning in this incident.
Would you please tell us about her? I understand.
However, I got this information secondhand.
I can't guarantee its credibility.
I trust you're fine with that? Yes.
They said it was four years ago.
It happened before he became the Contractor.
You just dismiss her as an imitation? When she's the spitting image of the girl you once loved, yet couldn't protect because of your powerlessness? Kazuma.
Kazuma! Come on, wake up! Five more minutes.
Enough already! You're not going to get breakfast! All right.
Nice weather! Hurry up, get dressed and eat your breakfast.
You've got to work today, right? Roger that.
Oh, I forgot to say it.
Good morning, Kazuma! Good morning, Tsui-Ling.
Thanks, I'm doing great again today, Mother.
Come on! Hurry up! I'm not going to pay you unless you catch her safe and sound! Hey, come over here, you good kitty.
You sure gave me enough trouble.
Fei-Fei! Oh, there, there! Weren't you scared? Now you can pay me.
What? I don't think so! What? You broke our sign! The money goes to the repairs! Wh-What?! Welcome back, Kazuma.
I'm home, Tsui-Ling.
You look tired, Kazuma.
What kind of work did you do today? I rescued a cat for no money.
That's a lame job! Shut up.
When you're the jack-of-all-trades you take any job with a smile on your face.
Kazuma.
Stop fooling around over there and help with the shop.
I know, I know.
She totally wears the trousers in that relationship.
Kazuma's no match for her.
I sure wouldn't mind Tsui-Ling in my trousers, let me tell you! Because you're a dirty old man! Here you go! You sure have changed, you know? You used to get drunk in broad daylight and pick a fight every chance you got.
But ever since you met Tsui-Ling, you're a totally different person.
Kazuma! Don't be slacking off! I know.
Take care of that girl, all right? Yeah.
Look.
Remember the night when I first met you? The moon was just like tonight.
Yeah, you're right.
Hey, what were you talking about with Tsang and the others earlier? About the past.
The past? Have I ever told you about my family back home? No.
There's this tradition of making a person with power the successor of the family.
But I didn't have any power.
I got kicked out of my family and came to this country, this city.
I should have just forgotten about my family, but I couldn't.
I wanted to have power.
The power that I just don't have, and never will.
Back then, I was really a mess.
Kazuma.
Do you still want power? What? You do, don't you? Because if you have power, you'll get to go home and have a much better life than being in a filthy place like this You're an idiot.
Wh-Why did you call me an idiot? I'm thinking of you here, Kazuma! Ever since I came here, every day has been like a dream to me.
What? Because there's someone here who sees me the way I am, regardless of power or stuff like that.
I want to treasure the life we have together right now.
Even if it's ordinary or small To me, this is the greatest happiness, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Kazuma.
Huh? Will you protect me? Will you protect me forever and ever? Yeah, I promise I will.
Just like this breeze that you're feeling right now, I'll be by your side forever.
I heard Kazuma say it to Bernhardt He said, "You people stole everything.
" This girl named Tsui-Ling must've meant everything to Kazuma.
No way He disappeared all alone because From the police headquarters to each mobile station.
A brawl has been reported in the Sector 4.
I repeat.
A brawl has been reported in the Sector 4.
Wh-What's going on here? A typhoon just passed by here or something? That's ridiculous.
This is terrible.
Call an ambulance.
Yeah.
Hey, hang in there! Are you all right? Tell me what happened here.
I-I was just watching it.
During the class change, the seed Class change? Seed? Th-Then he he "He"? Wind? What's the matter, Lapis? It's nothing, Master.
Bernhardt I will kill you.
I'll tear you apart, and that poorly-made doll with you, too.
Wind, show me the next clue! Sabishige na hitomi Ano sora ni nani wo sagashiteiru no Kimi wa kaze no yaiba de dare mo yosetsukenai Shizukani chi wo nagashite naiteru sakenderu hitori Inishie kara no chikara yo mezamete Zutto matteta kono deai wo lenai kizu kakushiteru kimi wo Dakishime sasete itsuka No! He would never do stuff like that! Kazuma is selfish and violent I can spend all day naming his shortcomings and not finish, but still, he would never do stuff like this! This is definitely not the way he does things! Next time on Kaze no Stigma, "The Raging Wind Magic User.
" I'm the only person who can stop Kazuma?
