He opened his eyes and stood up, seeing Mio's body hovering above the ground.
Zero: Mio... Stop. I'm okay. So—
Mio: No... You can't... Holding this power back is the most I can do... And I can barely do even that...! Please... Zero... I can't keep it under control... So please ... kill me....!!

Mio: Eh?

Mio: W-What are you sayi—
