Sakiko

If only those days had continued... I could have been happy.

Sakiko

Without shedding a single tear, bathed in warm light—

Tomori?

Take my hand, Saki-chan. Let's go back to those days.

Sakiko

Yes... Tomori!

Tomori?

...

Sakiko

—That's what you expected me to say, isn't it?

Tomori?

Huh...?

Sakiko

Mother, Tomori... and I. We no longer belong there.

Sakiko

All those dazzling, beautiful memories lie buried beneath the grave of the weak person I once was.

Sakiko

I became a god for the sake of Ave Mujica. And gods... do not waver.

Tomori?

...

Sakiko

It's about time you dropped that facade. You are no Tomori.

—Hehe, that's more like it.

A temptation of this caliber can no longer shake you. I'm glad to see that.

Sakiko

The past, bound by attachments and laden with sin... I have already forgotten it. We stand now only upon the traces of the tears we have shed.

Sakiko

Attempting to ensnare a god with sweet words—that is blasphemy.

Sakiko

Who are you?

Hehe, it seems there's no time to answer that. Your ride is here.

??? (Uika)

"...-ki-chan! Saki-chan!"

Sakiko

That voice is—

Uika

"Saki-chan! Give me your hand...!"

I'll be looking forward to what comes next. Oblivionis, Goddess of Forgetfulness.

Sakiko

Wait—who are you—!

Oblivionis

Tonight's masquerade draws to a close. Everyone, may you have a pleasant night...

Oblivionis, please accept this bouquet. It is a token of gratitude from the Togawa Group.

Nyamu

Whoa, such gorgeous roses!

Sakiko

(That person is actually... grandfather's secretary.)

To think the Togawa Group would stoop to clinging to a mere band to salvage their image. How the mighty have fallen, trying to curry favor with the masses...

No, no, they were right to set their sights on Ave Mujica. You saw it, didn't you? The level of their performance and world-building! They're the real deal!

They might even be able to recoup those massive losses. And as his granddaughter, she must be content to protect the family name. Truly, blood is thicker than water. What beautiful familial devotion.

...

Sakiko

(We cannot rely on the Togawa's blessings forever...)

Sakiko

(We must become independent from the Togawa and make Mujica unshakable. That is my sole purpose.)

Sakiko

(I will captivate every guest here and turn them all into collaborators for Mujica. Even if they're devils, I will use them.)

Oblivionis

Thank you. What a beautiful bouquet... On behalf of everyone, I express our gratitude.

Oblivionis

As long as you desire a sweet feast, Ave Mujica will remain your faithful partners.

Oblivionis

With that, I bid you a good night.

Sakiko

Phew... The breeze feels so refreshing.

Sakiko

The heat of the party was a bit much. But we were able to mingle with the guests as well...

Sakiko

Even so...

Sakiko

(Was that a waking dream...? Or some phantom taking the shape of a girl...?)

Sakiko

(No, surely it was—)

Sakiko

My resolve will not waver. —No matter how you, the devil, try to tempt me.

Sakiko

!! The wind is so strong...

Sakiko

These beautiful flowers... They should rest here.

Sakiko

Goodnight... May you have sweet dreams. All of my... dazzling, beautiful memories...
