This chapter starts off with Sakuta talking to Izumi, inside the clinic.
Izumi says with his hands covering his face He can gain power when people dies around him.
Sakuta nods and says He's been pulling people into this world from Earth and killing them, I think.
Izumi: And you're sure that he has the power to kill us all?
Sakuta looks up at the ceiling and says I'm positive.
Izumi stands up and says I'll fight by your side. How many do we need?
Sakuta shakes his head and says More than two. Lanza had an army.
Izumi paces back and forth while saying There's Lost Crimson.
Sakuta shouts NO! I will not send them to their deaths! This is my fight.
Izumi: Your are Lost Crimson's leader, therefore it's not just your fight.
Sakuta crawls out of bed and says I will not ask them to die for me, besides it's not like any of them would agree to go to an early grave.
Izumi looks Sakuta dead in the eye and says Do it. Ask them to fight on your behalf.
The story now cuts to Sakuta in Zaphkiel's mindscape.
Zaphkiel: More or less.
Sakuta walks over to Zaphkiel and asks What happens if I devour you?
Zaphkiel eyes get wide from shock and says Try me.
Zaphkiel makes an ice sword and swings at Sakuta.
Sakuta hair begins to turn white and he says I'm going to use you for my own bidding, you filthy centipede.
Sakuta disarms Zaphkiel as his mindscape begins to be destroyed.
The story now cuts back to present day with Sakuta standing on the stage in the base of operations.
Sakuta starts his speech Thank you for coming on such short notice, I'm going to tell you all everything that happened to me a month ago. I received a threat from someone named Oliver Lanza, he said that he would kill you all I go didn't come alone, so I went alone. Lanza was there with an army of cursed spirit users. After I cut down ten, Lanza fought me and he gains power from those who die around him. I did not stand a chance against him, and I was knocked unconscious. When I awoke I killed all who remained in the compound and I ate them.
Everyone in the room is hit with shock at what Sakuta just said, but he continues I'm going to ask you, will you die for someone who did something so unspeakable, would you go to war on the behalf of a monster?
Rika comes out, bows her head and says Lanza is killing innocent people from Sakuta's home. If you are not willing to trust him, then could you trust the bond we all have?
Sakuta continues Cursed spirits and their hosts, if you want to go to war then stay, but those who don't want to and those of you who are regular people, please stay here nonetheless, I may be Cursed Crimson, but still I ask you to remain my family.
The story cuts again to a dark room.
Someone enters the room with lantern and sets it on the table. We see a women and a little girl in a bed together unconscious.
The man sits in a chair and we see that it is Oliver Lanza.
Oliver: That kid Sakuta who killed our man in the government is still alive, the fucking monster ate fifteen of my men like a centipede, but don't worry I'm putting vengeance aside. Im still working on trying to gain the ability to heal or find someone who has it, but still I cannot tear a big enough gate to the other world and try to find something or someone to fix you two.
Oliver gets up and kisses both of them goodbye, walks out of the room and says to himself I don't care how many people I have to kill, how many lives I have to uproot and alter, we will be a family again.
