Mushi Uta:Volume 6 Chapter 6
6.00 Shachito The Last[edit]
Shiohara Shachito left the Concertgebouw before watching the conclusion of the play.
The battle between Mushitsuki would soon be sniffed out by the Special Environmental Preservation Bureau. He definitely didn't want to be found out by such an organization and lose his freedom.
Connecting the Mushitsuki with Shachito who would have gone missing should be difficult even for the SEPB. Until now he had perfectly concealed his status as a Mushitsuki.
Only Rio knew about him coming in contact with Inuko. And since he had countless friends that were much closer to him than Rio, whether the investigation would reach all the way to her depended on luck.
"I wonder where Inuko went."
He sent his wounded face looking around Oranje Land illuminated by the moonlight.
"—Oh well. She won't shut up about training if I'll be found by her again anyway."
Straddling his So1o parked on the wayside, he revved up the engine. He had lost his timing to bring Inuko back her hockey stick, so he decided to take it along for the ride. He put his helmet and fastened its metal fixtures, holding the motorbike in place.
Before leaving Oranje Land he turned around to look at the Concertgebouw once last time.
"Rio-chan sure was cute. Just like I thought I did well trying to hit on her."
His cute underclassman's acting was majestic. She would definitely be able to keep giving her best efforts in pursuit of her dream from now on.
Masaki Rio.
The girl Shinpu first set his eyes on as a vessel.
There was the possibility that she might be targeted again by another one of his fragments.
If possible Shachito would've liked to stay at her side and protect her, but he couldn't stay in Holland City. Just checking on her once in a while through text messages would be good enough.
Because he had another way to protect her.
"No, if I'm talking about cute, then surprisingly Inuko's the one who…"
He muttered with a light smile.
Fighting.
As the successor of a berserker, what Shachito could do was only to fight.
As long as the battlefield favored Shachito he would fight.
He would keep on fighting until he exhausted himself.
"I think Rio-chan's the type to grow beautiful as she gets older."
Even now mumbling about such silly things, Shachito took off on his So1o.
He didn't turn to look back in the direction of Holland City.
He had no regrets.
He had no worries either.
He already knew what he had to do.
"Hmm, can't let myself hesitate, seriously."
Shiohara Shachito's journey to annihilate the fragments of Shinpu.
—Start.
