“She's down again.”

“We should just dispose of her already.”

“Why let such disappointment suffer living life?”

I look over.

“Hm?”

“Why are you faltering?”

I stand over her bed, in which she laid upon.

“Ayanokoji...?”

“Why do you fall? Are you not a special specimen?”

“No...”

“Why do you fall, when you're not ordered to?”

“It's because...”

“Why do you fall, when you are one of us?”

“It's because...”

“Why do you fall, despite feeling love?”

“It's because...”

“Why do you fall?”

Her face suddenly homes multiple wrinkles.

“It's because I’m weak, hopeless, broken and useless!”

She screams.

“Why? You weren't ordered to be such thing.”

“I don't know... I don't know... why do I have to be disposable, Ayanokoji?!”

“Because you're a weak person. But you chose to be a weak person.”

“I didn't choose to be like this!”

I widen my eyes.

“You weren't ordered?”

“No...”

“You weren't forced?”

“No...”

“Then why?”

“Why... you ask?”

“Those who stray from the path of the strong, are those willing to become weak. That is what father said.”

“I see...”

“Dote on living as the strong, dread becoming among the weak. The weak shall die earlier, exactly because they have not the will of the strong, but as cowards.”

“Did your father say that too?”

“Yes.”

“I see...”

“Then, why are you weak, nine?”

“Why...?”

“Tell me, I want to know the answer. You know more than me.”
