Mikoshimo gradually wakes up: "What is this dark place? Is this hell?"
Then he sees a strange dark being, unable to maintain a stable form, as if confused, with three heads: one sad, one hopeless, and the third angry. The angry face looks at Mikoshimo and says, "Finally, you've arrived. We've been waiting for a long time."
Mikoshimo: "Who ar..."
The being takes control of Mikoshimo.
Mikoshimo wakes up startled in the hospital, finding a policeman in front of him who says, "Well, well, look who woke up—the only survivor and the only suspect."
Mikoshimo: "What does that mean? I don't understand anything."
The detective: "You'll know everything during the investigation. Rest for now."
He leaves him cuffed and walks out.
Mikoshimo takes some rest and back to sleep.
Mikoshimo: "Where am I? I feel a strange power in my hand. What is this? Akari, how did this happen?"
Then he wakes up in a locked room, facing an iron table. The detective enters and says, "Well, well, I think we have a lot of questions today."
Mikoshimo: "First, when did I get here?"
The detective: "I don't have time for jokes. Why did you try to kill the nurse?"
Mikoshimo: "What!? What do you mean by that?"
The detective: "What do you mean, 'what do you mean'? We caught you trying to strangle the nurse."
Mikoshimo: "I don't remember anything."
The detective: "Alright, why did you kill your family and all your neighbors?"
Mikoshimo: "What do you mean by neighbors? I didn't kill anyone."
The detective didn't believe him, but had no way to continue the interrogation, so he left and brought in a psychiatrist to assess Mikoshimo's mental state. The detective, frustrated, went to smoke a cigarette, leaving Mikoshimo alone with the psychiatrist. When the psychiatrist left, the detective asked him, "What's the result?"
The psychiatrist: "I don't think he's the killer."
The detective: "What do you mean by that?!"
The psychiatrist: "The patient has hemophobia, a fear of blood, and experiences seizures when he sees real bodies, so it's impossible that he would have had the courage to kill that many of his loved ones."
The detective: "Are you saying he tricked you?"
The psychiatrist: "A boy like this, trick me? I've been doing this job for forty years, you think it's easy to fool me?"
The detective went back to resume the interrogation, only to be shocked by Mikoshimo's disappearance.
Mikoshimo wakes up at home: "What happened?"
A voice: "Finally, we finished arranging the furniture."
Mikoshimo: "What, Akari?!"
Then he looks at himself lying next to her and says, "Thank God, it was all just a dream."
Akari: "No, it wasn't."
Mikoshimo: "What do you mean?"
Akari: "Convince him, wake up."
She slaps him across the face.
Mikoshimo: "What...?"
Then Mikoshimo finds himself in a strange, incomplete, dark place, and he sees the three-headed creature again. He remains fearful, then remembers his wife's words, approaches the creature, and says, "What do you want?"
The creature: "What brought you to me? Why are you inside me?"
Mikoshimo: "I'm here to protect you."
Mikoshimo: "From what?"
The creature: "From what will happen."
Mikoshimo: "Leave my body now."
The creature: "You're not the one in control."
Mikoshimo remembers what Akari said and tells the creature, "Alright, what do you want?"
The creature: "I'm here to protect you."
Mikoshimo: "How about this? I'll let you stay here, but you give me full control of my body?"
The creature: "I'm not the cause. I'm just some feelings inside you."
Mikoshimo: "What?"
Then, a completely dark figure steps out from behind the creature, hiding its features.
The creature: "He's the one in control."
Mikoshimo: "Who are you?"
The figure: "Me? You could say... hmm, let's see. Ah, the crisis man inside you."
Mikoshimo: "What do you mean by that?"
The figure: "In terms you can understand, you naive fool, I'm an extension of your personality, a better version of you, solving some of your problems. You told me... that you want control. I have no problem with that."
Mikoshimo: "Really?"
The figure: "If the situation gets bigger than you, let me step in. 😁"
Mikoshimo: "That smile doesn't look promising."
Then the figure extends his hand for a handshake, and Mikoshimo shakes it.
A strange dark aura surrounds them, and tattoos cover their bodies. Then the figure says, "If you need me, just say 'dark rule'."
