Chapter 10: Huguel's Revelation and Houka's Decision
After Huguel makes Breno Huguel unconscious, he addresses Houka and reveals that he is chosen to be part of his plan for the new world order, bringing peace to a world full of sin and making sin disappear completely. Houka, without hesitation, agrees to join him, even without knowing who he really is.
Huguel then reveals that he is the creator of Houka, her parents and her relatives, and the entire Zerk world in general. He explains that he was cast out of Heaven by his older brother, Hugel, but that this was exactly what he wanted. He claims that Houka and the other companions he is recruiting will be the heroes of the innocent, the children, and all the repressed and humiliated, whether they want it or not. Then Huguel disappears, leaving Breno Huguel to wake up and find Houka still lying on the floor.
Breno Huguel drops the knife and moves away from Houka. He turns his back and leaves, without saying a word. Nikkoman arrives where Breno Huguel is and asks if he is okay. However, Breno Huguel doesn't respond and, with a sad and empty look, turns his back and leaves without saying anything.
Nikkoman looks at Breno Huguel with a confused expression, but then turns his gaze to Houka, who is lying on the ground. The police arrive, pick up Houka and take him to the ambulance.
Chapter 10 ends with a series of revelations and decisions that leave the characters and readers in a state of uncertainty. Houka is now being taken away by the police, while Breno Huguel and Nikkoman follow different paths, each with their own emotions and thoughts. The next chapter will reveal what the future holds for these characters and how their choices will affect how the story unfolds.
