Ouka

WHAT in the blue blazes is going on here?

Ouka watched Kiriko point the gun at Erie from his hiding place behind a building a short distance away.

I came to the dorms thinkin’ I’d finally gotten my hands on a good lead and what do I find? Some insane chick fight. Neither Erie nor I got any luck, he thought as he listened to them talk.

Kiriko didn’t seem to believe what Erie had blurted about Jair. But Jair unquestionably existed, and he was most likely the person who murdered the security guard. However, was that worth mentioning to Kiriko?

Ouka weighed the pros and cons. Erie should have information on Jair that he didn’t. Ouka might just grab hold of an even better lead if he made her indebted to him.

Well, saving her can just be an extension of my job. Erie’s arrest wasn’t part of the Church’s request.

Ouka left his hiding spot and raised his voice in greeting. “Yo, Kiriko.”

His unexpected voice startled not only Kiriko into turning around, but also Erie and the other Rabbis.

Kiriko scowled when she saw him. “…Ouka? Why are you here?”

“Put down your gun. That girl is innocent,” Ouka said, walking toward them.

The Rabbis looked skeptical.

“Why are you standing up for me?” Erie asked, but he didn’t bother with the annoying details. Kiriko glared at Ouka like he was the bane of her existence.

“You suddenly appear and expect me to believe you?”

“What the girl said is true. An even more heinous person is behind these incidents. She’s just a victim of circumstance. Let her go free.”

Kiriko let out the loudest sigh at him. “You speak as if you have authority here… You’re not even aware of the precarious position you’re in.”

“Come again?”

“Do you remember what happened four years ago?”

Ouka was taken off guard by the question she suddenly thrust at him. “Four years ago? What are you going on about all of a sudden?”

“I’m talking about Sehem-hamphorasch. The four original cubes and thirty-seven imitation cubes were stolen from the Church right around the time you quit, yes?”

Ouka groaned. “…Yes, they were. What about it?”

“We continued to search for them, but couldn’t find a single trace. And now, four years later, several people have appeared with the cubes… Moreover, you always show up wherever they are. Don’t you find that suspicious?”

Ouka suddenly had bad feeling about where this was going. “Hold your horses, Kiriko. What are you trying to say here?” he demanded hesitantly.

“The source of the cube leak. You illegally sold the cubes on the black market, didn’t you?”

“I-Illegally sold the cubes?! On the black market?!” Ouka’s voice cracked.

“I bet you’re going around collecting the cubes now that you’ve grown scared of your crimes coming to light,” Kiriko intoned with disgust. “This theory perfectly explains why Lovel’s cube went missing.”

“Are you an idiot?! You’ve gotta be an idiot! That’s not just a false accusation anymore!”

“Then explain to me how you were able to make a ridiculously expensive Amber Golem after quitting the Rabbis, when you were
