Episode #17 – The Days in Waiting

A great defeat of Suguru and his Shadow self from the castle of his own Palace is long gone since Keiko/Joker, Morgana/Mona, Ryuji/Skill, and Ann/Panther got the Treasure of his crown to steal and escaped from the old part of the Metaverse and back to the real world. But what did Suguru's Heart of the Treasure look like in the real world? After checking the app/nav of the place to be no more on their cell phones to prove it was gone and Suguru has finally turned himself in to confess his crimes from his change of heart...A lot has been happening so far.

Keiko: Kamoshida's castle is no more...You're right, Ryuji.

Ann: ...It's true. We can't go there anymore.

More importantly...

Morgana: What about the Treasure?!

Keiko: It's okay, Morgana. I got it right here. (So this is Kamoshida's favorite Treasure to have and to love so much. His award medal.)

She shows the others what Suguru's Treasure really looks like, from a crown to really be a medal type of trophy.

Ryuji: What the...?

Ann: ...A medal? Wait, where'd that crown go?

Ryuji: What's goin' on...?

Keiko: I'm starting to, but we'll let Morgana explain to us.

And so, he tells them. For the medal was the crown.

Morgana: It means, that was the source of Kamoshida's desires. To him, this medal is worth as much as that crown we saw in the Palace.

Suguru, being an Olympic champion, wanted it so much to keep on going to be better than the rest of the people in the world, even the other high school students. Now they were getting it.

Ryuji: An Olympic medal...So, that perv kept clingin' to his past glory and couldn't let it go...

Ann: But...this means that Kamoshida's heart might have changed, right?

Seems like it, for they now had to wait and see for the time being.

Keiko: I sure hope so.

Morgana: ...Probably...

One 'probably' is all that Morgana's saying who doesn't know yet. So they have to wait...? Ouch.

Ryuji: "Probably"?! Our expulsion's on the line here!

Morgana: This is the first successful example for me too. However, there's no doubt that this has affected Kamoshida's personality quite a lot. The entire Palace disappeared, after all.

This might be a while since Suguru did go straight to the police station for the rest to take effect for his career to end real soon.

Ryuji: Ugh, I feel all antsy! Ain't there a way to check now?

Keiko: Hey, Ryuji, it'll be okay. We'll just wait and find out in a bit. But look at it this way...Kamoshida's not going to bother me, Ann, Yuuki, you, or any other students anymore, right?

True, so true, they are all safe and hopefully Shiho will be too far from Suguru to be no more.

Ann: Right...Keiko has a very good point.

Morgana: Come on, why the gloomy faces? Be happy! We completed this with great success, you know. And Madame Keiko's right, you're all safe and staying in school.

Ryuji: We just don't know if everything's OK yet...

It will take some type for the people in the school and the public to soon learn about Suguru's abuse of the students to be told soon enough.
