Riko! there are countless tragedies buried at the bottom of this beautiful world.
there are countless tragedies buried at the bottom of this beautiful world.
But unless you are one of those directly concerned, this is not something you can know.
You should simply be captivated by the utterly dazzling beauty and push on, Hold on You should simply be captivated by the utterly dazzling beauty and push on, You should simply be captivated by the utterly dazzling beauty and push on, Riko You should simply be captivated by the utterly dazzling beauty and push on, treading firmly on the ground below.
Don't leave me behind, Riko! treading firmly on the ground below.
For your tragedy, too, is sure to become sustenance and give birth to the blooming of new flowers Riko! Open your eyes! Please open your eyes! Riko! You're so noisy That girl Her heart is still beating It's likely to stop any moment now, though.
Wh-what are you?! I'm just a fluffy stuffed doll.
I've come here to comfort you two Wh-what?! Just who the heck are you?! I'm happy to properly introduce myself but first wouldn't it be best to hear about how to save her? Riko This's quite bad What should I do? Please tell me! I want to save Riko! What can I do to get her breathing again?! Just blow a breath directly into her.
Like a kiss, you know, a kiss.
Do you know how? She's breathing again.
I'm so glad! Thank you! I can't begin to express my gratitude It's still too early to relax.
Huh?! Well, it seems she's not regaining consciousness.
Th-that can't be! What should I do?! Calm down! You, come on and carry the girl back to my hideout.
Huh?! I'll find a way to do something for her Really?! Even though you don't know anything about us?! Well Just keep a little distance between us, okay? What is this place? Cave-raiding equipment? Besides that Are those whistles? H-hey who exactly are you? Ah! I suppose I never told you my name I'm Nanachi.
I'm what you cave raiders would call a Hollow.
Everyone, unable to resist, goes down in Make those eyes shine brighter than a torch The destination we are aiming for is deep We squarely lose our way The trap of the open-mouthed netherworld Let's chase the traces of truth If an answer can be found now, we don't mind losing it all The echo is still reverberating So that we do not part with that voice The compass is always Pointed to the darkness Where there is no escape In that direction Even if that is a curse The pulse is the real thing Never again will the yearning stop A "Hollow"? A small child? Oh So you don't know about us, after all.
Well, I suppose you don't exactly look like a cave raider.
Hey, lay her down over here.
Nanachi, I don't mean to be rude, but aren't you about the same age as us? Feeling anxious? In that case, you wanna try finding someone else? I beg you! Please save Riko! Ah that's a good boy.
Among cave raiders, handling it like this is apparently common practice But that's just because they don't know the proper way to do it.
Wh-what are you?! The poison will! Come on, just calm down.
We'll allow the poison to flow through her body and then get rid of it once it does.
This is medicine made from a friend of mine that I then hardened with wax.
When it's not possible to administer it orally, you need to insert it in the butthole Now, on to her arm.
I'm gonna remove the smashed bone fragments and stitch up the blood vessels and flesh.
Look, this white thing is a nerve.
A number of them were damaged I'm not good at stitching these, you know.
Still, the way you cut her is pretty gruesome It's a good thing she passed out Alright, I think that should do for the time being.
Ah, that's a relief.
But, now comes the hard part.
I'm going to need you to go out and fetch a bunch of stuff.
Wha?! Just tell me what I need to do! Don't get so close! Sorry for doubting you earlier! I'm begging you, Nanachi! Please save Riko! Anyway why didn't you cut her at the elbow joint? You could've taken her arm off from the joint without breaking the bone first Uh, well Were you perhaps just following her directions? Y-yeah I see She's an extraordinary girl.
Y-yeah? If the part past the elbow is left intact, then it totally changes the things it's possible to do when out cave raiding.
She was still determined to press on.
Even finding herself in that situation, she still didn't give up on her adventure.
R-Riko Oh, th-that's right! I still haven't told you our names! I'm Reg! And that's Riko! I know It's the first time anyone like you two has come here.
Ever since you entered my hunting grounds, I've been listening to everything you've said.
Th-then the presence I sensed right after we entered the fourth layer It was you! Yeah, that's right.
I was watching the entire time.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to treat the orbed-piercer's poison, would I? Wait a minute So, even when that thing attacked us, you were Yeah, I was watching and I heard it all, too.
The look on your face says, "Then why didn't you help us?" I was simply interested in what the deal was with you guys, you see.
From the very beginning, I had no intention of showing myself.
S-so then, why did you save us? Because I started to pity you.
"Riko, don't leave me!" You were sobbing like some lost little kid.
I couldn't bear to watch.
What was that? Is there someone else here? Just somebody I live with.
I'll introduce you.
This is my cute little Mitty.
Wh-what is that? This girl is also a Hollow.
Wha? Have you heard about the strain of ascending in the sixth layer? I'm quite sure it was, "the loss of your humanity or even death.
" Right, if someone survives the Curse of the depths' sixth layer, this's what becomes of them.
Their personality and intellect vanish.
As the name implies, they become a hollow husk of the person who once was.
No matter what anyone tries, they can never go back to the way they were.
That trick you used where you extended your arm Just thinking about what would happen if you did that on the sixth layer is pretty thrilling, huh? B-but, Nanachi! You You're not like that! Well, there's a reason, you see, that I'm an exception among exceptions.
Don't get your hopes up.
There, there Mitty, you're special, too.
That reminds me.
If a cave raider becomes a Hollow, their fellow cave raiders will put them to death and collect their belongings before moving on.
Given the alternative, I suppose it's far better to simply tell people they died.
In that environment, imagine putting yourself out in the open looking like I do.
I am living proof that it's possible to return from the sixth layer while retaining your humanity.
Naturally, people will come and try to capture me however they can, right? Revealing myself is a big risk.
Even if it was only out of pity, getting saved is still a good thing, right? I see So that's your situation I'm sorry.
He's a pushover Well, I'm done sketching it now.
What's this? The materials necessary for healing Riko and the places to find them.
My awesome signature is on there, too.
She still has internal bleeding and her arm will rot off at this rate.
Listen, all I've done so far is delay her death.
Wha?! She'll manage to hold on for another 12 hours.
If it starts seeming like it'll take longer than that, you better think of a tactful way to say goodbye.
D-don't joke around! I guess you can't see it then, after all.
Later I need to ask what that means exactly.
There's so much to keep up with that my mind is churning But, for now think only of saving Riko! Hmm So, my eyes didn't deceive me, after all.
Nanachi Nanachi This new Cartridge is just great.
Please look happier It's all thanks to you, after all.
Come on, smile Let us celebrate the success of the experiment.
You can gather most of the stuff on the western side.
Stay out of the central region.
Orby is in there.
"Orby"? Does Nanachi mean the orbed-piercer? A demonfish, the bigger the better.
Choose one that displays clear color differentiation between its back and belly.
Giant-hammerbeak eggs.
Take just one per nest.
The freshly-laid ones are best.
This here? Sto-! Cut it out! Yellow-shining grass.
Find a spot with lots of it growing and pick the stuff that smells somewhat better.
A shroombear infected with water-shrooms.
Alright, I've collected it all now! Please Make it in time! Riko! Riko! Riko?! Wha?! Wh-wh-what are you?! Nanachi, what are you doing?! Hey, you sure are noisy.
If we just leave her soaked in bloody pee, she'll get a rash, right? Look.
She really peed a lot.
Make sure to wash it later.
Uh is Riko alright?! Also I misunderstood and well Is she okay?! Just calm down, you piece of junk.
Oh, this one's great! You're pretty good.
Well, let's get started right away.
We're going to save Riko.
Ah, okay! These water-mushrooms are parasitic, you see.
When it looks like their host, which has left the den by this point, is about to kick the bucket, they share their stored-up nutrients and get their host going again.
If the number of shroombears in a new den increases, there'll be more water-shrooms, too.
It's what's known as a symbiotic relationship.
While Riko's still unconscious, we're going to plant them on her and put 'em to good use.
She's got a good vein there anyway, so we'll plant 'em right on her wound.
That should help the bone's healing process a bit, too.
They also help prevent the rotting of the flesh.
Well, they do hurt like crazy when you pull 'em off, though.
Nanachi, what are you going to use the fish and the rest of the stuff for? That should be obvious.
For my dinner, of course.
Wha?! I can't believe you! I gathered all this! What would we do if I'd been too late?! Hey, you sure get noisy about every little thing What's all this business about being noisy?! With the state Riko's in I've been watching over her this whole time, so it's not like I can go and find food myself, right? If I collapse from hunger, who's going to treat her then? I suppose that's true I'm sorry.
As long as you understand now.
He's really a pushover Don't look so sad.
I know it doesn't look pretty, but at least this will save her life.
Really?! Her life is truly saved this time?! That's right.
Thank you! Thank you, Nanachi! Jeez, you're so irritating! You really are fluffy Hey now! Go wash Riko's pee-stained clothes.
There's a riverbed out back.
Understood "Flowers of Fortitude" Eternal Fortunes, huh? Are these gravestones? I'll be going now, Lyza Th-that's the Blaze Reap?! But why is it here? I was sure it was kicked away somewhere by the orbed-piercer Wait Where am I? Riko! N-Nanachi! What? This thing Somewhere or other, I Whatcha doin'? N-Nanachi?! Huh? You alright? You were staring intently at a girl's pee-stained clothes H-huh?! It's not like that! Huh? I mean the Blaze Reap's right over there! Hmm So, have you seriously become a piece of junk or what? Well, you have been through a lot Cheer up! And while you're at it, wash this, too.
Wh-what was that just now? It wasn't this place Was it the scenery of somewhere similar? Also, that voice If I'm not mistaken that was one of my own my own memories wasn't it? In that case, the one who was mourning for Lyza was Did I bury her? No, Ozen said, "No one was buried there.
" What does it all mean? The glittering waves that float in the sky Let's bundle them and build a rainbow bridge A dangerous foothold, a slope we slide on A signpost of the past and future Your left hand, with my right hand Join it, connect us, and let's begin I am always beside you In the past, the present, and also the future So let's walk along without hesitating Pile up multicolored dreams Where will we head toward tomorrow? If I can be together with you, the world will begin to shine Let's search for flowers that bloom at the ends of the earth
