"So, then he isn't working with us because he wants to fight against violence, but just simply because he wants to screw with Mori?" Ranpo asked mostly himself than anyone else in the room. "Or is he really trying to be a different Person, but just can't get rid of his own personality? Or was he srewing with Mori in the beginnning but then got attached? Or is he just aimlessly wandering around?" He continued his thoughts as if no one else was in the room.

"We should stop making conclusions while he isn't here. Wether we like to admit it or not. Dazai, if what we know right now is true and our information sources are truly trust worthy, is a lot smarter and better at pretendences slash manipulation than us. We could have a totally wrong picture of him right now. Or we could be right and he just wants us to come to the conclusion and wants us to believe that we're wrong, because we thought he was so smart that this version of him is the wrong one. We don't know. All we know, is what Dazai knew we would inevitably know and the stuff he wants us to know. Let's not make any rash decisions." Yosano said.

"If he was trained in any way I can imagine right now, then we stand no chance in figuring anything out on our own." Fukuzawa added

"What do you mean, sir?" Atsushi asked.

"The Ariyoshi and the Tshushima, as well as the Shimazakis train their youngsters in a specificly inhuman way. It is brutal, but no human way can compare to it. The things they learn to do as a regular rountine are far beyond what a normal training method could ever hope to achieve." The president explained.

"Could you explain it a little more detailed?" Ranpo asked, thrilled by the thought of new knowledge, but also wary of what he was going to hear next.

"The training method these three clans, yes the Schimazaki are also part of that, however they don't have as much influence. Nevertheless, one of them was Dazais father, while his mother was an Ariyoshi and is also the mother of Sawako, which was already mentioned. These clans need to train their descendants properly in order to secure and maintain the power the country clans currently have. They use a special method called 'black blood'. I am unaware of why, but it is its name.

Almost every child in there is an ability user, usually the powerful abilities only happen in the main line, so there is no reason as to why Dazai is antigifted, instead of being in the posession of a normal ability, since per generation only one antigifted ahould exist and now there are two, but maybe he just got lucky. Anyway, there is a way to find out, wether a child is an ability user or not, though it is, like the entire training method illegal and brutal. In order for them to check for an ability, the child receives physical damage to the point of internal bleeding, in order to activate the ability as lasst survival option, since evry ability has the desire to survive, well except Dazais. And once they're coughing blood, the antigifted is sent in to check it out." Fukuzawa paused and swalloed hard, then he continued

"If the antigifted says, the child is gifted and the ability is useful, the child is sent into training, if the child however happens to be just a normal human, they are sent into an seggregation centre, where they are parted into groups and killed in one way or another, by the gifted children, sometimes even by their own siblings, then their bodies are used for dissection and medical training.

And that's not even all. The survivng children are being 'trained' in fighting, manipulation, deduction, seduction and any other educational thing one might need to learn, goinf from medizine, over law down to design, they learn everything, but also in physical and mental resistance, they're being tortured and punished for showing weakness, they get close to someone, before that someone is killed in fromt of their eyes. In the end, if the training of fifteen years does get completed, they become heartless murderers, with nothing but raitonal thinking, just what they need. The training usually starts at two and ends at 17, Dazai probably never finished his, Sawako most certainly did. She even killed her own sister in a fight to gain the throne, even before I met her for the first time.

Until this day I don't know what kind of ability she has. I can say, that she is probably antigifted, otherwise, she for one wouldn't be alive anymore, as the first born of the main line, she would have been killed by now since Dazai is antigifted and they wouldn't have use for her unless she was also antigifted, or she would have at least not reveiced position of family head. And the other thing is, if she were to be a normal human or a normal gifted, they wouldn't have allowed Dazai or back then it was Shuji Tsushima, to just run of like that."

"Or maybe that's exactly why Sawako was here right now. To take him back. If she were to be as powerful as you described the Ariyoshi family to be, then she could have surely handled this on her own. She wouldn't need Dazai to fix this and risk exposing everything about the undercover buisnesses of both of them and their families. Because even though they are in power, it is not official knowledge, that there is no such thing as democracy, that all this time all of America, most asian countries,Russia, Nigeria, Kenya, south africa, egypt, France, Greece, Italy, Spain, the united kingdom and Germany has been controled by one family, the Ariyoshis and autralia, and a couple of other asian and african countries has been controled by the Shimazakis. That all this time the only thing that has kept the world in line has been a hidden monarchy, no rather emperors and or empresses, who have ruled over multiple countries like a hidden empire over hundreds of generations.

Sawako is a smart woman, she wouldn't risk everything just to fix something she could easily fix on her own. Maybe she is unfit for the position according to her gift but is just the last full blood, since her sister had been weaker than her, or maybe just too young to stand a chance against someone with fighting potentiall. Dazai is not a full blood. All he is is a sideline member with half Ariyoshi and half Shimazaki blood. And Sawako doesn't seem to bee weak in fighting, if what you told us about her fighting methods is accurate, which I don't doubt." Ranpo said.

"However, it might just be her intention to let the mask fall. What if Ariyoshi-san simply wanted the cover of monarchy to fall. And to live freely. I can't believe it is fun and nice to have so much responsibility and burden on your own shoulders. She might have been trained well, but she can't want all that can she?" Yosano said.

"Yosano, she isn't like you or Kyouka, she is someone like Mori or someone like Dazai was in the past, or maybe still is and wants to get rid of or maybe not. My point is, she doesn't mind all the blood on her hands. Just like Mori and Dazai, they chose to fight in the way they did, they chose to torture and kill, they chose to survive in any way possible instead of being swallowed by guilt and die in it. They accepted that that is what it takes to survive instead of deciding to rather die than do all those things, like you did. In that case, this makes you a very good hearted person and them very selfish. But you never know where people come from and why they act the way they do until you know the full story. I can't judge what her intentions are, because we will never know unless she tells us." Fukusawa said.
