      Vol. 8 Chapter 1.1 – Prologue: The Raging Mat Cover
      by PinkPanther “W-Whaaaat is with this outfittttttttttttttttttt!” Lisara Restall, a first-class Shinigami, screamed, her voice echoing through the square pro-wrestling ring. Lisara’s slender chest and toned stomach were thrust high toward the ceiling like a bridge, while her head was bent back, her throat exposed, facing downward. Because of that, her long red hair hung down onto the ring mat. However, her long, pale arms and legs were not touching the mat. One of the Eight Weirdos, the『Pretty…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 8 – March 2056, National Defense Academy Dormitory Cover
      by PinkPanther Once it was over, I thought that even eight years passed surprisingly quickly. Instead of continuing to wait endlessly for emails from Nagamine, I searched for the path I should walk and chose it. But that did not mean I had forgotten about Nagamine. I still use the cellphone I used back then. Though when I say『use』it is really a cellphone dedicated only to Nagamine, and in reality, it never rings. Still, I carefully keep it charged and never forget to renew the contract. So, if things…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 7 – September 2048, Noboru’s Room Cover
      by PinkPanther The second email from Nagamine, sent from the outer edge of the solar system. “We’re just like lovers torn apart between outer space and Earth.” Without thinking, my hand stopped over the button. Whether the timing was too good or too terrible, for someone like me who had just broken up with Takatori (?), the contents were too heavy. Just one year had already turned things into this. I could not immediately imagine what eight years and seven months would really mean. Nagamine…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 6 – September 2047, Sirius Cover
      by PinkPanther The point where the Lysthea fleet warped out,『Sirius Line Beta』was a void of darkness where no star systems existed nearby. Mikako experienced the moment of warp while aboard her recovered Tracer as it was being transported back to the hangar. When the countdown echoing throughout the ship reached ten, all major power sources were shut down, and the interior of the ship was sealed in darkness. The container carrying Mikako’s Tracer also came to a stop along the track. For safety reasons,…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 5 – September 2048, Stair Landing Cover
      by PinkPanther Honestly, I was lost about how I should spend this summer. It felt like I had plenty of choices, but in reality, none of them gave me a decisive reason to choose. Even without that, this was the time of year when, whether I liked it or not, I had no choice but to think about my future. My parents, my teachers, and my classmates all pressed me together, asking,『What do you want to become?』, 『What do you want to do?』There was no way I had a clear answer. To begin with, I had absolutely no…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 4 – August 2047, Pluto Cover
      by PinkPanther ■ ■ ■ Noboru-kun. Mikako is on Pluto right now. It feels like I’ve come all the way to the very edge of the solar system. There’s almost nothing new left for me to learn here. I’ve learned everything I need to learn and when it comes to piloting a Tracer, I feel like I can handle anything. What we do here is search for Anchor Points. I may have mentioned this before but the shortcut anchor for the return trip still hasn’t been found. So the staff connected to the U.N.…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 3 – April 2047, Jouhoku High School Cover
      by PinkPanther ■ ■ ■ Noboru-kun. I’m sorry for suddenly disappearing. Mikako is now at the base camp on the moon. I meant to say a proper goodbye but they came to pick me up suddenly, without any warning at all. Late that night, on the day Noboru-kun and I took shelter from the rain and went home together, that agent came and made the unreasonable demand that I get ready in one hour. Awful, right? My parents were angry too, saying that was ridiculous. I hurriedly stuffed changes of clothes…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 2 – April 2047, Mars Base Cover
      by PinkPanther Calm down, Mikako. First, detect the enemy. Focus your awareness in every direction. Always pay attention to your rear and overhead, which can easily become blind spots, as well as beneath your feet. I’m doing it. Just like the lecture. Besides, I’ve experienced it countless times in the simulator. Even with a real Tracer, I trained countless times on the lunar surface. Basic maneuvers, experienced. The real thing and the fake thing aren’t that different. After all, even now, inside the…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 1.2 – July, 2046, after school Cover
      by PinkPanther That day, I did not notice at all that Nagamine was different from usual. No, this might sound like I am making excuses but at the very least, when Nagamine was waiting to ambush me as usual at our usual place, the stair landing after school, there did not seem to be anything particularly strange about her behavior. Still, looking back on it afterward, maybe her spirits had been just slightly higher than usual. Nagamine Mikako was, if anything, the calm and gentle type. She was on the shorter side,…

      Vol. 2 Chapter 1.1 Cover
      by PinkPanther I have so many things that feel nostalgic to me. For example, summer clouds, cold rain, the scent of the autumn wind, the softness of spring soil, the comforting feeling of a convenience store late at night, the cool air after school, the smell of a blackboard eraser, the distant sound of trucks in the middle of the night. Noboru-kun, those kinds of things, I always, always wanted to keep feeling together with you. Even if something looks worthless to other people, I think…
