Yaztahruis hits Ryujiro continuously.
"Watch, Katsuro Kurogane!! Watch as I torture your grandson!"
Nozavelle wakes up.
Vasilisa and Dusty both shoot her at the same time but she still dodges.
"Not that easy! No matter how much you try. You'll be dead meat!"
She starts Violating Dusty again with her strong fists.
Dusty starts breathing heavily in search for air.
Vasilisa cries out.
"Stop!!! Please leave him!!! Kill me if you want! Please, I beg of you!!"
She shoots another arrow.
Dusty (not able to speak properly, lacking oxygen): "It doesn't matter, Vasilisa..
It's just one minute.. She'll wake up again and.. I'm about to die. I have.. accepted that."
- "Shut your mouth!! Please!"
Vasilisa tries to get up but falls down.
Third floor:
Ryujiro remembers the situation of Vasilisa and Dusty.
He screams with rage and corners Yaztahruis.
Kicking his face in an unstoppable manner.
"Tell that Nozavelle to kill herself!! Right now, you bastard! I don't know what is happening to them right now. But I don't need to know! No matter what, she needs to die!"
The whole face of Yaztahruis gets drenched in blood but he still smiles.
"Kill me if you want! Nozavelle will stay alive!
You won't be able to find the time machine! And a lot more! It's your loss, Ryujiro Kurogane!"
Ryujiro hesitates but realises that it's his loss if he hesitates and acts according to how Yaztahruis wants.
Ryujiro (smiling): "You think I care? I'm not that good of a guy to want peace.
I just wanna kill you, bastard."
It's Yaztahruis now who hesitates as Ryujiro continues punching and kicking him.
Yuki in the corner:
"He.. He manipulated the manipulator?"
On the road:
Dusty: "Vasilisa.. It's my last request. Please. Go away. Crawl.. or whatever. Try to get away.
Just accept it that.. I'm gonna die.
Please. It's my final request from you."
Vasilisa wiper her tears off.
"Please.. Vasilisa. If you don't.. then my death will be meaningless. Would you want that? Please."
Vasilisa slowly nods and turns away. Trying to walk and crawl.
"Dusty.. I love you."
- "I love you more, my love.. Go."
Nozavelle wakes up again but Vasilisa doesn't look back this time. Accepting the loss.
Nozavelle starts punching Dusty again.
"Yeah.. Keep.. hitting me. I just need to buy time for her. I can't die yet. I need to buy as much time as possible."
He shoots Nozavelle again in the head.
Dusty (with a sigh): "I guess.. This is my end.
This was the last time I was able to stop her. Now it's all on you.. Kurogane."
He closes his eyes and starts singing quietly.
