Conclusion

Where was I?

I looked up and saw a familiar ceiling. I looked around and saw a desk and a dresser. I looked at my feet and saw the rest of my body covered up in blanket.

Wait—I can see.

That means I have left that dimensionless world. That means General Machine and Count Devil… they're no longer here. That means…

I plopped myself back down against my pillow, in a faint hope that if I stare at the ceiling long enough it would give me answers.

And then I felt it again, the feeling of an icy flame.

And then I let my hands do the talking once more, and saw them burning in the cold.

It wasn't a dream.

I felt a smile form around my face.

"I could get used to this…"

Ah, but why was I made human, if I will be the one to cause to their destruction? Maybe… perhaps… it was so I could see what being a human is like. So I can see their strengths, their weaknesses, their beginning, and how to destroy them. I understand it now… I am the one. Pests, prepare for the coming of the black night, that you may never see dawn once more.

Reiko Minna-san, did you get the moral lesson of this story?
Hideki That water is really important and we should never belittle it!
Saemi That illusions can be SO powerful they can defeat you!
Takeshi That ogres are not good!
Ochiai-san That's not exactly it kids… ne, Reiko-chan?
Reiko Saa… the lesson is that your hands were made for playing on the piano and not to play in fire with!
