And your friends that you thought were dead? They're really alive?

Oh. Yeah. They died in the Phantom Dimension, so it doesn't carry over.

So if you die in the Phantom Dimension... you don't die in real life?

Nope. It'll just hurt.

[ Well, that could be worse. But... ]

Then what are you trying to do now?

Survive? Find a way out of the facility, I guess. It's complicated.

You don't trust them?

They're just trying to use us and we don't know what for. Who knows if we can trust anything they say. We already know they lied about our parents.

What was the lie...?

They said our parents knew where we were and that they were fine.

But they're locked up too.

What? Why?

[ sorry he has so many questions ]

I don't know. Maybe just to keep them quiet about us being taken?

... That's messed up.

It's hard to tell what they could want from all this.

My best guess is power of some kind, but... It's a blind guess. I don't know how. I don't know why.

And you'll be going back to all that.

[ ugh ]

It sucks. You haven't caught a break in a long time, huh?

It is what it is. I want to get back. I don't like not knowing what's going on while I'm away.

... Yeah. Three weeks is a long time when people need you.

[ huh. ]

Were you pulled away from anything? I feel like I only know some vague stuff about your world, but not... you.

Not anything in particular. But me and Satoru are two of the strongest sorcerers in Japan, so without us there...

They might send less practiced sorcerers to fend off cursed spirits. And they might not survive.

There aren't... adults who are stronger?

Sorcerers don't really have long life spans.

But right now? No, there aren't.

... Because it's so dangerous?

Yeah. It really just takes one mistake to get you in deep trouble.

[ hrm. ]

That sucks.
