Mama Mama

Mama!

Mama Mama

Mama!

Jina!

Mama

I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!

Mama Don't leave me

I would never leave you behind.

You and I will always be together.

Mama

Jina.

Setsu said their hands are tied right now,

so could you go check on the medical pod?

Huh?

Apparently, they're

supposed to wake up soon.

Um you know.

That one passenger who was hurt.

Yuri was it?

Maybe you should go instead of me, Comet.

Whoever goes will have to explain

what's going on with the ship,

so a space traffic controller like you

would be the better choice.

Setsu's words, not mine.

All right.

Looks like the instant learning is complete.

Does your body feel okay?

Y-Yeah

Did you understand the instant learning?

I see I went back again.

"Went back"?

Er, nothing.

We're currently aboard the

Interstellar Cruiser D.Q.O.

But we're currently facing a huge problem.

Yeah. There are Gnosia

infectees on board, right?

Huh?

And that's why we're about

to have a meeting, right?

Yeah

Well, let's hurry.

Did you also find out about the meeting

from the instant learning?

Huh? Er, yeah

What do you think it will be like?

Hm

The meeting's purpose is to determine

who the Gnosia infectees are, right?

Yeah.

I heard that Gnosia infectees

have no problem lying,

so we'll have to use the meetings to

figure out who isn't telling the truth.

Or so I think.

I see

Do you not want to?

I don't do well with meetings and stuff.

Like, actively exchanging

opinions with others.

What do you think I should do?

Sorry.

It's not that I don't believe you,

but there currently exists the possibility

that either you or I could be a Gnosia.

So we shouldn't try to coach each other

outside of the meetings.

Okay.

There's ten of us.

And among those ten are the Gnosia infectees.

Affirmative. There are two infectees.

So, how fares the amnesia?

I seem to be doing a lot better now

thanks to the instant learning, Racio.

Hmph.

All right, it looks like we're all here.

Let's start the meeting. LeVi.

As you wish.

There appears to be one Engineer on board.

I believe this would be an opportune

time to make yourself known.

And silence.

Well, there isn't much merit in making

yourself known the first day.

But I think it'll be really hard to go forward

if we don't know who the Engineer is.

To begin with, we might as well

press anyone who seems suspicious.

For example, a certain someone

who may be feigning amnesia.

I mean anyone who tries to lead the

meeting is pretty suspicious, too.

I see. This proves it.

Yuri and Chipie are clearly

collaborating with each other.

You are?

No. I just said what I thought.

Though I guess there's no way

to prove otherwise.

What shall we do?

This is foolish. We are merely wasting time.

You're right.

At this rate, we're going to end up

choosing someone without any basis.

That may just be something

we can't really help.

Also, instead of words,

paying attention to someone's

mannerisms and tone

can be an effective way to spot lies.

Yeah, I think I'm better at that.

What do you think, Jina?

Huh?

About what I just said.

I think you're right, Yuri.

Sometimes, it's important

to go with your gut feeling.

I agree with Jina!

It is almost time.

Who is the Gnosia?

Let's go.

It's only natural for people to find

you suspicious if you talk too much

but it's also not a good idea

to stay too quiet.

Huh?

What should I do?

No matter how much I rack my brain,

I can't think of a good strategy.

I can't imagine making it through this.

Maybe I should just

Jina. Jina!

It's me, Otome. I wanted to talk to you.

Okay. Just a minute.

Huh?

Yu—

Yuri

Oh, Yuri.

I-I'm sorry!

You really don't mind?

It's okay! I can just tell her what

I wanted to later, so please, go ahead.

Thanks.

Thank you, too.

Huh?

During the meeting You decided

to include me in the conversation.

R-Right No problem.

Well, I must've sounded pretty

dismissive in the elevator, so

I'm sorry.

It's okay. It's not your fault, Yuri.

But

What you said was right, after all.

Thank you.

You just keep saying "thank you."

You're right.

Even now Should we still

not trust each other?

Well

There's still a chance that

one of us could be a Gnosia.

I don't think so.

Come with me.

Are we going to go out into space?

Huh?

Er, uh

How did you know that?

What is that?

It's an organism called a Silver Key.

Because of its power, I've been looping

the same period of time over and over.

So that's why you know so much?

Yeah.

I've been to countless meetings

and voted countless times.

Did I end up in cold sleep?

Yeah. There were world lines

where that happened.

But there were also times

where you made it to the end.

I see.

Sorry. I'm never sure if I should

keep this a secret or not.

What about a Gnosia?

Huh?

Was I ever infected by the Gnosia?

Yes.

I see.

Not just you, though.

There were world lines where others, like

Setsu or Racio, were infected by the Gnosia.

I've even been infected myself.

Did I lie?

When I was a Gnosia Did I lie?

Yeah.

You said that we should go into space

to determine whether we

could really trust each other.

That's what you said to deceive me before.

But I'm talking about a Jina

from a different world line.

Not to mention, when you're infected by

the Gnosia, it also affects you mentally.

So that really does happen.

Huh?

When you're infected by the Gnosia,

you gradually just become okay with it.

With lying and deceiving people.

I don't want that to happen.

I can't bear the thought of it.

Jina

Yuri Put me into cold sleep.

Right now.

Jina Does that mean you're

Tell everyone

that you found one of the Gnosia infectees.

Wait!

Just wait.

So this is your home planet?

Yeah.

It's far away from where

I actually lived, though.

I see.

I hate lies.

Huh?

I don't want to lie.

Right.

But before I realize it,

I'm lying like it's second nature.

When it comes down to it,

I pretend to be human like the others,

deceiving them without a second thought.

Even though I hate that

more than anything else.

I get it.

Because I've been a Gnosia before.

Did you also lie?

Yeah. I lied like it was completely natural.

I was trying to convince everyone

to believe that I was human.

It felt like that was just

what I was supposed to do.

Then why?

If you understand all of that,

then just freeze me.

But

I don't want this.

I hate deceiving everyone.

I don't want anyone to disappear

like they're being cyberized.

Cyberized?

I heard that was what it was like.

People who are eliminated by the Gnosia

don't die.

But only their souls remain.

Cyberization

Have you ever heard of it?

Just once.

It's a technology that was

developed some time ago.

The only known practitioners are the

shrine maidens from the Hoshibune.

The Hoshibune Wait, that's Yuriko's

Right.

The Hoshibune drifts through space,

and the shrine maidens on board

cyberize any believer who desires it.

They corrupt them,

turning them into something else.

They relieve you of your body,

and you're freed from all earthly suffering.

You don't have to fear death anymore.

But you said you'd always be with me.

And I will! I'll always be by your side.

Because I'll never die.

I'll be by your side forever.

So your mom

I never saw her again.

I don't know what happened to her after that.

Your mother's soul is up in Heaven.

If you wish you can join her.

I don't want to make anyone

else disappear like that.

I don't want to take away

anyone else's loved ones.

If it comes down to that, I'd rather

What does the other Gnosia

have to say about this?

Sorry.

I'm sure you don't want to say anything

that would rat out your comrade.

Why are you trying to help the Gnosia?

You're human.

Yuri, you're supposed to eliminate

the Gnosia and protect the humans.

It's not that I want to help the Gnosia.

I want to help you, Jina.

I'm going to give it all I have

to figure what you should do.

Yuri

We're really high up.

Jumping down

Huh?

They say, when you're ready

to commit to a decision,

you should treat it as seriously

as jumping down from here.

I see.

Huh?

Thank you.

Warp commencing in four, three, two, one

The two of you were talking

for a really long time.

Yeah.

Jina, who do you think we should eliminate?

What do you think?

I think Yuri suspects us the most.

So, Racio was

Affirmative. I do not sense

Racio's presence.

I trust you all understand this will continue

as long as there are Gnosia on board.

Surely, the time hath come for the Engineer

to make themselves known eth.

Well?

I'm the Engineer.

I know my argument with Racio yesterday

might make me seem like a Gnosia, but

Is there anyone else?

This is very strange.

There should only be one Engineer.

So you as well

Does that mean one of them is a Gnosia?

Yeah, I guess that's what that means.

Huh?

Jina?

I'm the real Engineer.

N-Now, hold up. There's three?

Now things are getting interesting.

But wouldn't that mean two out

of these three must be Gnosia?

That would be the natural conclusion.

One of them is real,

and the other two are impostors.

Jina

Well, for now, let's hear

each of their reports.

Who did you all investigate?

I checked Otome.

She's a Gnosia.

I also did some investigating

And Chipie is a Gnosia.

What about you, Jina?

I checked Chipie

He's a Gnosia.

Two against one Well, they

would win if majority ruled.

But that's not the case here.

Two out of the three are Gnosia.

There's no way that one Gnosia

would report another Gnosia.

So the only answer that's

not contradictory is

That Chipie is human?

Why did you do that?

What?

You should've known this would happen

if you said you were the Engineer.

And yet

I'm sorry.

I just can't deal with this.

I can't deal with becoming

something not human.

Jina.

And

Warning.

The shields are down due to

a magnetic field anomaly.

Wait, what?!

Please equip space suits as a precaution.

The shields!

Jina!

LeVi, can you tell us the

extent of the damage?

This ship has been my faithful companion

across thousands of light years.

She will not sink so easily.

Receiving transmission from outside the ship.

Jina

Magnetic field anomalies

happen often in this area.

If they lower the ship's shields,

it can be sunk from impact with debris.

I've carried out emergency repairs.

The maintenance drones can handle the rest.

But the maintenance drones will not operate

as long as there are Gnosia present.

- There aren't.

- What?

No Gnosia remain on board.

So, LeVi, please.

Jina you

Yuri

Don't go!

I won't let you go alone!

Thank you.

I've always hated lies.

Both lying myself

and being lied to.

But this is the first time

it's made me happy.

I'm glad you said that, even if it's a lie.

It's not a lie!

It is.

You're going to leave, Yuri.

You can't stay with me.

Isn't that right?

Well

That's what I've come to realize.

Even then, I

I love you, Yuri.

Even if you're going to leave me.

So

Thank you my beloved Yuri.

Danger. Oxygen concentration decreasing.

Danger. Oxygen concentration decreasing.

I hope we can see each other again.
