I was just pawning off some grunt work. You guys saved me the trouble of taking out those golems myself. [k] ＠Count Peperon You really shouldn't be so quick to trust me, Da Vinci. Like I said, I'm still a Crypter. [k] ＠Count Peperon Once this business with Beryl is taken care of,[sr]I'm going right back to being your enemy. [k] [charaFace B 24] ＠Da Vinci ...A Crypter, huh.[sr]Your real name was Myourenji Arou, right? [k] ＠Da Vinci According to Chaldea's database, you were doing dirty work for the Mage's Association when Marisbury discovered you... [k] ＠Da Vinci Then he assigned you to Chaldea after transferring you to the Astromancy Department. [k] ＠Da Vinci That all lines up with what you told us in India, too. But that's as far back as your record goes. [k] ＠Da Vinci Since you helped us out both in India and Olympus, and it looks like you're going to help us here, too... [k] ＠Da Vinci Would it be too presumptuous to say I consider you an ally, and I'd love to know what really makes you tick? [k] [charaFace R 3] ＠Count Peperon Oh wow, that hit me like a bolt of lightning, hon! You really are a genius to come up with a line like that! [k] [charaFace B 12] ＠Da Vinci Really? Was it that good? I've never hit on anyone before, so that's good to know. [k] [charaFace R 6] ＠Count Peperon Oh yes, darling. It was simply wonderful. [k] ＠Count Peperon After all, you said it for me, not for Chaldea. [k] ＠Count Peperon All right. It's not a very fun story, but if you really want to hear it, well, how can I refuse now?

[k] ＠Count Peperon You want to know what kind of person I really am? [k] ＠Count Peperon Well, you probably have a good idea already from the kind of work I did for the Clock Tower.

[k] ＠Count Peperon It's a sect of Shugendou whose ultimate goal is to have it's practitioners[line 2]referred to as fallen or corrupted tengu[line 2]arrive in hell. [k] ＠Count Peperon I was good enough at it that everyone[sr]used to fawn over me... [k] ＠Count Peperon But, well, me being me, it's no surprise that they eventually decided to expel me. [k] ＠Count Peperon So, once my family stopped being my family, I tied up a few loose ends and put Japan behind me. [k] ＠Da Vinci By which you mean... [k] ＠Count Peperon I killed my entire family and the sect, yes. [k] ＠Da Vinci ...So, there's no one alive who knows your past. That would explain why there weren't any records of it. [k] ＠Da Vinci So why did you do that, anyway? [k] ＠Count Peperon ...Can't it just be because I thought it was for the best? [k] ＠Count Peperon The Myourenji family was a single[sr]generation of Houjutsushi. [k] ＠Count Peperon Our founder managed to form a connection to Sanat Kumara on Mt. Kurama after he fell to Tengudou... [k] ＠Count Peperon But his descendants weren't so lucky. [k] ＠Count Peperon They had to undergo long, intensive training to make their bodies superhuman without the power of Sanat Kumara. [k] ＠Count Peperon In some ways, it was similar to how Muramasa lived. [k] ＠Count Peperon You practically kill yourself trying to come up with a special circuit[line 2]well, body, really[line 2]and you can never pass it along to anyone else before you die. [k] ＠Count Peperon That part, I didn't have problem with, though. The real problem was how they went about growing the clan. [k] ＠Count Peperon I was directly descended from the founder, so I was born and raised on Mt. Kurama... [k] ＠Count Peperon But all the other Myourenji children were kids they abducted from around the foothills. [k] ＠Count Peperon In ancient times, child mortality rates used to be much higher than now... [k] ＠Count Peperon So back then it was easy to get away with kidnapping the occasional kid to raise as their own, but not now. [k] ＠Count Peperon Plus, if the kids couldn't keep up with the training, they'd be abandoned in the mountains. And even if they persevered, the only thing waiting for them was a fall from grace into hell. [k] ＠Count Peperon If messing with people's destinies wasn't bad enough on its own, the fact that the only choice they replaced it with was “death or disgraced tengu” made it even worse. [k] ＠Count Peperon Any group that would keep doing something like that is irredeemable. So when I decided to leave the mountain, I killed them all first. [k] ＠Da Vinci Even though they were your family? [k] ＠Count Peperon BECAUSE they were my family. I wouldn't have cared if they'd been strangers. [k] ＠Count Peperon But since they were my family, it was my responsibility to make sure they never ruined any more kids' lives.

That's why I chose to make a clean break with my family instead of sticking with them. [k] [charaFace R 7] ＠Count Peperon Basically, I'm a no-good scumbag who'd rather keep things neat and tidy than honor my Crypter obligations.

[k] ＠Count Peperon If a Myourenji Houjutsushi can acquire one of the six Buddhist powers known as Rokujintsu in a hundred years... [k] ＠Count Peperon ...that's enough for them to officially be considered a tengu. [k] [charaFace R 4] ＠Count Peperon I'd mastered three of them by the time I turned ten. [k] ＠Count Peperon Jinsokutsu: the power to run at superhuman speeds. Tashintsu: the power to read people's minds. [k] ＠Count Peperon And Rojintsu: the power to know how long I'll live, and what my fate will be. [k] [charaFaceFade R 9 0.2] ＠Count Peperon Can't blame them for thinking I was some kind of prodigy!

Altria and Gareth didn't know what to make of it at first, but it didn't take them long to see the appeal. [k] ＠Da Vinci Too bad Oberon didn't join us, though.

I've suspected since we left Salisbury that we might be on different pages there! [k] [charaFace B 14] ＠Da Vinci Okay, this seems as good a time as any to clear this up, so let's go ahead and do that. [k] [charaFace B 25] ＠Da Vinci You probably feel as though you've spent ten fewer days in Faerie Britain than you actually have. [k] ＠Da Vinci That's because you were unconscious for ten days after you passed out in the Nameless Woods. [k] ＠Da Vinci And the reason I know that is because you guys showed up at Mike's establishment about ten days after I started working there. [k] ？！ [charaFace B 0] ＠Da Vinci Anyway, it's getting pretty late. I know we have a lot to think about, but for now, we should make sure we're well-rested for tomorrow.

[k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Oberon Now that we have not one, but two Children of Prophecy here in Norwich, there's no chance of Morgan sitting idly by.

[k] ＠Oberon But you didn't say anything. You stuck to the same priorities we've been following so far. [k] ＠Oberon I'm sure you want nothing more than to go after her, but as the Master of Chaldea, you decided to stay the course. [k] ＠Oberon It was the right call, but seeing that face you made, I still couldn't help but worry about you. [k] ？1：It's like you said: I should trust her, not worry about her. ？2：I'm just following your advice to trust her instead of worry about her. ？！ [charaFace C 3] ＠Oberon Nnn.

[k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Oberon Sorry, just thinking out loud.[sr]Anyway, let me just say this. [k] [charaFace C 4] ＠Oberon ...Mash said she still hadn't recovered her memories since leaving the Nameless Woods, right? [k] ＠Oberon Well, I'm afraid Da Vinci's theory was right. [k] ＠Oberon If someone who forgets their name in the Nameless Woods is given a stronger role[line 2]that is, a new self[line 2]than they had before they lost their memories... [k] ＠Oberon ...they may not ever be able to return to who they once were. [k] ＠Oberon I don't know how Mash ended up taking on the role of Child of Prophecy herself... [k] ＠Oberon ...but did the Mash you know have a role that could possibly surpass it? [k] ＠Oberon A role bigger than responsibility for the fate of the world, with everyone's hopes and dreams on her shoulders? [k] ＠Oberon ...Exactly. It's hard to imagine she did. Which means...the Mash you're looking for is gone. [k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Oberon We only need one Child of Prophecy to uncover Faerie Britain's secrets, and we already have Altria for that. [k] ＠Oberon So I have to ask... Do you still need to concern yourself with Mash? [k] ＠Oberon Even though she might never remember you, or go back to being the Mash you knew?
