He said he was going to the Tenjukyuu...!! Nakime: $ To stop the sun... $ To stop Amaterasu-sama from dying off completely...! Nachi: Wait! (I don't understand any of this!)

You idiot, do you hae any idea how worried s- Souta: ! pg 75 Souta: ...Nakime=san. Please come out. You can see me from there, can't you? pg 76 Souta: I want you to answer me. I want you to tell us what the "Ama of Iwato Project" is...!! Yuuki: % Wha... pg 77 Nakime: So you realized...about the eclipse, Futotamanomikoto. Typical... pg 78 Nakime: ...thousands of years ago, when the world was sick like this... Then, the one known as the Omohikanenokami unsealed the six magatama, summoning the six Amatsukami from Nakatsukuni. ...those were you. Yuuki: "Six"...? Yuuki: % So, Takaomi, too... Kaya: Wait, please- he... When he got his magatama, he grew black wings... And became a god of destruction. Are you saying that you summoned the god of destruction as well...?! Keimia: She's right-because of this, the world could be destroyed, couldn't it...?! pg 79 Yuuki: % WHY?! Yuuki: Nakime-san... Nakime: ...it is for the REBIRTH of this world. Yuuki: % !! Nakime: Summon the god of destruction to destroy the polluted world... So that once again, it can be recreated anew. pg 80 Yuuki: % It can't be...!! Nakime: The god of destruction...right now, "Susanonu" is not in his final foem. ...before long... "Susanonu's" body will awaken as that creature...! Souta: ...a dragon. Yuuki: !! Souta: A dragon will be awakening from within Takaomi, won't it? I was researching eclipses... I found a ledgend about them that was left from ancient times. pg 81 Souta: An "eclipse" is when... In the human's place... The sun shoulders the burden of their sins, and is consumed by the dragon... But it wasn't a legend, it's reality!! Nakatsukuni's sun has lost all power. The sky remains black...and panic is spreading throughout the cities...!! Yuuki: Them, "Susanonu" will.. Now, Takaomi will... pg 82 Nakime: ...just as the writings say... He will eat Amaterasu-sama, the sun. Yuuki: % N...o... Keima: ...so then... The world will be destroyed...? Nakime: The world was dirtied by human hands. We cannot revive it. And also, nobody... pg 83 Nakime: Nobody can stop Susanonu. We will just start everything over again. The World Rebirth System. That is... ...the "Ama of Iwato Project". Yuuki: % So this was all planned? % How we were given the magatama... % How Takaomi was "Susanonu"... Nakime: This is the plan that Amaterasu-sama willed, which I put into operation. To let the dragon consume her is Amaterasu's true role. Yuuki: % All of it...you... pg 84 Yuuki: % You always knew... Nakime: The plan is to be repeated each time the world is polluted like thi- ! pg 85 Yuuki: ...SO?! Are you saying that both Takamagahara and Nakatsukuni will vanish?! You're blaming the world's sickness on all humans?! ALL... pg 86 Yuuki: All humans aren't like that...!! Yuuki: % I couldn't stand it! % To have everyone disappear... % To let Takaomi destroy the world..!! Yuuki: Nakime-san, you told everyone to "help Amaterasu", didn't you?! Was that a lie?! Then why did you call the five of us here?! If we can't save Amaterasu-sama, then... WHY?! pg 87 Nakime: The four...Amatsukami... ...were to protect you until you reached the Tenjukyuu... ...Yuuki, you are... Amaterasu-sama. ...after this sun is dead, and all is lost... You are to become the sun of our new world. pg 88 Nakime: To have a new Akutei born of thee Horu... Your existanc is what is saving the world. (ed: "Horu" still read as "horizon", "akutei" is read as "light".) Yuuki: % That was... % What she planned all along... Yuuki: ...ar. Nakime-san, you LIAR...!! Nakime: Yuuki...! pg 89 Nakime: ...everything went according to plan... I'd hoped for her to be pleased... Except one thing... I never thought... ...that this Amaterasu would fall in love with Susanonu... pg 90 Taizou: ...there is one other thing. ...the reason that I am going to the Tenjukyuu... Is to meet you. pg 91 Kaya: ...I'll give you the Shinkakyou, ...but... I have one condition. Take me to the Tenjukyuu as well, please...! pg 92 Yuuki: % Takaomi... % He's so different from the Nakatsukuni Takaomi. % He's selfish... % And he can hurt people without caring... % But. pg 93 Yuuki: % He's lonely... Takaomi: $ Live together, just the two of us. Yuuki: % ...kind... % Takaomi. % Why must I light the world that you must destroy...? pg 94 Takaomi: $ I'll eat you. $ Eat you. Nakime: ...Yuuki. pg 95 Yuuki: I'm very sorry about before! It's not even all your fault, Nakime-san... Nakime: It didn't hit me, but... No. It didn't hurt, but... It hurt very much... I won't ask you to forgive me. But... There is no other way. pg 96 Nakime: Until we do this, the world will remain sick- Yuuki: Nakime-san. I...am going to become the next Amaterasu, aren't I? Nakime: Y...Yes. Yuuki: Then... pg 97 Yuuki: I'll let Takaomi eat me. pg 98 Nakime: ...Yuuki...? Do you know what you are saying?! You love Susanonu, don't you?! Yuuki: That's why. I'm pretty selfish. I don't want Takaomi to eat Amaterasu-sama now. But I want to save everyone else in the world, too. So... Yuuki: % If letting him eat me... Yuuki: I don't mind. If just...my one wish could be granted. Yuuki: % Takaomi... % Takaomi... pg 99 Yuuki: I want to see him... I want to see Takaomi one more time... Yuuki: % No matter what form he's in, I need to meet him... % I have something I want to tell him... Nakime: It's impossible! You don't have power that's anything close to Amaterasu-sama's level! You wouldn't even be able to get close to Susanon- ...!! There's only one way... Yuuki: What?! Nakime: There may be one other way...! pg 100 Yuuki: Tell me!! I'll do anything...! Nakime: ...the Takamagahara you. You must join with the other Yuuki, that lives in this world..!
