Gohda arrives with Rosa in Lobby. You see Hideyoshi, George, Battler, Genji and Yoshiya there.

2 Winchesters are in table, meaning that nobody was capable to find the others 2 Winchesters inside the forest.

It is now 7:35. With only 8 people (counting with yourself), what Gohda will do against The Witch in Gold, Beatrice?

"Wait. There is something wrong here. I need to think."

Chesterton summons his stinks cigar and start to think furiously.

"First, how Rosa could win a fight against the traitors? She doesn't show any wounds. She should be pretty tired and hurt... except if her plan as a successful."

"This is why she offered herself to guide us at Kuwadorian! She wants us to fail! She is a wolf in sheep's clothing!"

"Second. Kumasawa. She doesn't answered my questions. She just told us her story, a story doesn't fits to any questions asked before. She avoided me completely!"

Then, he smiled.

"HAH... HAHAHAHA!", he laughs loudly, "Napoleon, bring a drink to me! Let Flambeau do your job! Miss Virgilia, Mister Eriko, do you want some drinks?"

"I know what to do. But where is my weapons? Did they stolen me?"

That stink smoke covers all the Meta-Room.

Eriko opens some windows. "No, thanks, I don't drink."

"Me neither."

"As I can see, you got something in my Gameboard, right? Wanna share with us or do you wanna make your next move with Gohda?"

"Fine!", Chesterton says with a different smile, when smoke.

Virgilia already saw that smile before... that wasn't good thing.

"I'll go with you, Gohda-san" Rosa says, following, but before she leaves with you. "Genji-san, please, go call Kumasawa. We need everyone here."

"As you wish, Rosa-sama."

You and Rosa go to the Kitchen. You open the door and you try to find all those items. You sucessufly find it.

"What are you going to do with salt, pepper and sauce?" Rosa asks, a little confused.

[Note: She is with a different clothe beucase you and the others were left in the rain last night. Some of them are with different clothes.]

"I see......" Rosa says, realizing that her help isn't need at the moment. However, they were alone in Main Building. She can't let Gohda alone. "I'll stay watchful in front of kitchen while you are cooking."

Rosa laughs. With that smile in her face, she thinks maybe they can get out of that island in tomorrow morning. Gohda tries to find Berune's favorite candy, but he fails. Maybe she got all of them when she left Rokkenjima for vacation.

Meanwhile, in Kuwadorian, Beatrice is drinking some tea. The sun shines in her beatiful house and flowers blooms like newborn babies.

"So, so, Rice!" Gaap says with enthusiasm. "Who will be the next two victims! Tell me!"

"Hum... I don't know... "

"Eeeee? It's obvious that is Rosa and Gohda! Duh!"

"The current Game Master will not allow us to kill the detective."

"Then I kill Rosa and bring Gohda here."

"It's too early for bring Gohda to my home. Let's wait a little more."

Suddenly, 2 maids appear. It was Beelzebub and Asmodeus.

"Beatrice-sama, Gaap-sama, we received good news!" Beelzebub says.

"Yeah! Two cute boys are alone in cousin's room! Awww! They are... They are...... Can I kill them, Beatrice-sama? Can I? Can I?" Asmodeus says. Her eyes are shining, waiting for Beatrice's answer.

"Hum.... Let me see..........

NO! *ahaha.wav*"

"Awwwnnn..."

"I presume you both are talking about George and Battler, right?"

""Exactly, Beatrice-sama!""

"Then... Gaap, go and kill them. You wanted so much to know the victims of 2o Twillight... Now you are going to kill them! Kyahahahaha!!"

"That is great! No... That is more than great! It's paafekuto! Ahahahaha!" Gaap opens a black hole above her and jumps into it.


In cousin's room (Guest House), George and Battler wanted a little time for themselves. They both went to their room and set the chain and locked the window. They are alone in second floor, since Genji called Kumasawa to stay with everyone in the Lobby.

"Are still thinking on Sayo, nee, George-aniki?"

"Yes. I could save her! I really could! But..."

"You said it before... Said that Sayo said you both will met each other again."

"Just in heaven, right? She might be dead right now!"

"Shut up! Don't say that!" Battler gets angry. If Sayo was dead, Jessica was dead too. And Lion.... "No...! Lion can't be dead! They are alive, George-aniki! I am sure! Sayo, Jessica, Lion... Even dad, Kyrie-san and Eva-oba-san... They are alive! I know it! They are just lost in the forest, trying to get back home."

"Do you really believe in this?"

"If he doesn't beleive it, then he'll lost his faith in everything!"

""Who is there!?""

A black hole is opened in the door. From there, Gaap, the devil, show up.

"Helloooo~! I am Gaap, devil of holes, nice to meet you! *cackle**cackle*"

"What the heck??" Battler says. He tries to reach the telephone, but a black hole appears and the telephone disappear.

"Oops! Sorry! Iihihihi!

Now that none will disturb us, I'll kill both of you for Rice's Ceremony!"

"... Rice?" George says.

"It's Beatrice's nickname, duuuuhh!"

"Shut up, you monster! Give it back everyone!" Battler yells at her.

"Ahahha! Never! I'll never give back them!"

"Grrrraaaaahhhhh!!!" Battler runs in Gaap's direction in an attempt to give a punch in her face.

"Ahahaha! Really?" She opens a hole in front of her.

"Battler!"

"Don't worry, I'm gonna give him back to you!" Another hole opens, but this time on the ceiling. Battler falls from there, hiting the ground.

"Ouch!"

"Battler, watch out, this girl--"

Suddenly, while George turn his head around for talk to Battler, a big and black hole opens in front of George.

"GEORGE-ANIKI!"

"WHOOO--"

When George turned around, he only saw a pink high heel in front of his face.

Blood... Blood all over the floor... George's face was completly destroyed. A fatal hit.

"UUUAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" Battler screams... Screams for everyone hear.

"Ahahaha.... Kyahahaha... GYAHAHAHAHAHAA!!" Gaap laughs. "It's impossible for everyone hear you! My black holes are absorbing aaaalll your scream! Give up, Battler!"

"You... You.... I HATE YOU!" Battler tries one more time to punch her.

But then....

"...... Grh..... Agh....... Wha.... What....."

"What a poor cute guy!" Asmodeus says, nailing her stake in his back. "Thanks for using one of your holes to teleport me, Gaap-sama! I wanted so much to kill this red hair guy! So cute! So cuuuuuute!"

"You're welcome, Asu."

"It's Asmo! It's Asmo! Asmo, from Asmodeus! Not Asu, from Asune!"

"Okay, okay... Now, as the 2o Twillight says: 'Tear apart those who are close'. I need to make Battler disappear."

"Awwwnnn.... But... But..."

"You can stay with him while nobody discover his body. I will set up a black hole for you come back to Kuwadorian when you hear everyone approaching. Right?"

"Reaaally? Thanks, Gaap-sama! You are the best!" Asmodeus smiles and Gaap opnes another hole. Asmodeus kick Battler's corpses into the hole and then she jumps into it.

"Now, now... I need to clean this mess and return the telephone to this room." Gaap says.

Some time later, in the Lobby, Hideyoshi finishes to make some coffee.

"Yoshiya-kun, Genji-san, please, go call Battler-kun and George." Hideyoshi says.

""As you wish, Hideyoshi-sama.""

Both go to second floor and knocks Cousin's room door.

"Battler-sama, George-sama..." Yoshiya says. Noticing that there was no answer, he tries to open the door, but the chain is set. "Battler-sama, George-sama..."

He looks around and...

"....!!"

"What is the matter, Yoshiya?"

"Genji-san, go to the shed and take the gardening scissors!! George-sama is..."

"And what about Battler-sama!?"

"I don't know! I can't see more through the room! I... I'll look for Battler-sama in the other rooms!"

Yoshiya go to the room in front of Cousin's room and opens the door. Again, the chain was set. He tries to look around and... Another corpse... Battler's corpse.

"He is here! Go and get the gardening scissors!!"

"I'll do better than this..." Genji goes to the third room and opens the door and goes to the telephone. "Gohda-san... Rosa-san... Please, answer!"

"Humm... Your food is smelling good, Gohda-san! It's almost ready, right?" Rosa laughs again.

Suddenly, Kitchen's telephone starts to ring. "Oh, it must be Hideyoshi, asking if our food is ready! *giggle* ...... Hello? Hideyoshi? Our breakfast is al--"

Rosa's smile disappeared in that minute. She let the telephone fall on the ground.

"No... Not again!" Rosa says, scary. "Gohda-san, we must go! Fast!"

Rosa runs away from the Kitchen.

Gohda keeps the food in a "Marmitex"¹. It will keeps the food fresh for many, many hours.

Then, he follows Rosa until the Crime Scene.

You and Rosa arrives at Guest House.

"We are here!" Rosa says, going up the stairs.

"Thanks God, Rosa-san!!" Hideyoshi says, worried about his son. "Break the chain, Yoshiya, break the chain!"

"I'm trying!"

*CRACK!*

And then, Hideyoshi's open the door. "GEOOOOORGEEEEE!! NOOO! NOO!"

George's face is destroyed. Hideyoshi fall in his knees and hugs his dead son. "First, Eva... And now... You... Why? Whhhyyy!!??"

*CRACK!*

The other guest room's chain is break. Rosa and Yoshiya go inside. Battler was dead, too. A stake nailed in his back was the proof.

"Aaah!" Rosa screams. "Battler-kun...."

Then, Yoshiya hears what you said to him.

"I am sorry, Gohda-san, but Lion-sama is the only one who has that key and only one exists."

"So let's try to destroy the Study's Door. If necessary, bring axes. I think the final clue to solve this mystery it's find the Epitaphy's solution."

Gohda approaches to Battler's Body, searching for wounds and tips about his death and tries to find the scorpion charm on him.

"Or we can just use the boiler's ladder and breaks one of Lion-sama's window. /ange" Genji suggested.

"It's a better idea, Genji-san." Yoshiya agrees.

When you try to approach Battler's body, Rosa stops you. "Do not touch Battler's body, Gohda-san!"

She looks at you with serious eyes. "Your digital can contaminate everything!"

"No problem, that's only will keeping you from say 'you cannot use the Devil Token because you have a Scorpion Charm'."

"And if he died and you doesn't want to me look his body, it's because he died with a scorpion charm. So, the culprit didn't kill Battler, but an accomplice. Can you deny it?"

Genji locks all Guest House, preventing the culprit to disappear with Battler and George's body.

Finished this, everyone go to Main Building. Gohda and Yoshiya go to boiler room and get the ladder. Rosa, Kumasawa and Genji are waiting in front of Lion's door.

First Yoshiya goes up and breaks one of the windows. Then Gohda and finally Hideyoshi.

"We arrive, Rosa-san!" Hideyoshi says.

"Try open, Hideyoshi." Rosa says.

Hideyoshi looks around, trying to find something. "Find it!" He catch a big and heavy book and throw into the door.

*CRACK!*

The door forcibly opens. Rosa, Kumsawa and Genji gets in.

It is now 9:27.

"Hum... If I remmember..."

Someone said. It doesn't matter, since Gohda was trying to look for a specific magic book.

"Gohda, if you find somethingon this books, please, tell us!" Hideyoshi sasy.

Some minutes on search, Gohda finds something. The book was in english, but Gohda knows very well how to read it.

You open the book and there....

Devil Token:

Devil Token is an artifact that, when the right enchant is said, can summom a demon from hell.

A devil token can have many forms: A mini-statue, a marble, a coin, or, if a great sorcerer fabricated it, a powerfull and colorful pocket-light.

How to use: Speak out loud a generic enchant and nothing more. Don't forget to say the name of the demon you want to summom. If you don't, you can summom a dangerous demon that will kill you and eat your body.

In this moment, Yoshiya gets away from Gohda and try to reach the last shelf from library. "Unfortunatly", he didn't reach and the book he "wanted" fall on him, togheter with many other books.

"Oh my god, Yoshiya-kun!" Rosa yells. "Hideyoshi, help me here!"

He walks quietly through the door and then runs wildly, jumping up the stairs and forgot the steps.

Since Battler managed to jump out the window to the ground without getting hurt, Gohda could do it more easily.

When he reaches the entrance, he goes to the Guest House and heads to the room where George and Battler were, fallen.

Meanwhile, in Kuwadorian, Beatrice is watching Gohda running to the Guest House.

"Grrrrr... Toshiro Gohda! Goddamnit, you miserable cook! I will... I will... ........ Gaap!"

"Yes, Riceeee~?"

"Go to the Guest House and disappear with George and Battler corpses!"

"Ahaha! Aaalllright!"

"No... Wait... You can be destroyed by his anti-magic toxin." Beatrice thinks for a while. "Hum... But if I..."

The witch laughs. "Brilliant! I am such a genius! Now you can go!"

"Oh, god, this will be so fun! *ahaha.wav*" Gaap disappears.

Back to the path Guest House, Gohda was in the front garden, when...

"Haji temu sere!" a familiar voice speak a strange spell and a red and blue barrier surrounds you and this mysterious person. "I am sorry, Gohda-san, but I can't let you arrive there."

When you see it, it was.... Sayo. No... She was different... Those red-furniture eyes..... She wasn't Sayo! She was a copy!

Inside the Guest House, Gaap arrives in the second floor.

"This is gonna be so easy!"

"That's what you think, blond demon..."

"That voice..." Gaap looks in front of her: It is Belial, one of the most powerfull demons in hell. "But Gohda didn't summom you! Or... No... Is SHE here!?"

"That doesn't matter at all." Belial drew his sword. "I won't let you disappear with those bodies.

If you win me, then you can take these two corpses. But if you don't, then it is <checkmate> for you!"

Two Battles begin.

Gohda vs "Sayo"
Belial vs Gaap

Gohda is in human side
Gaap and "Sayo" are in witch side
Belial is a mysterious

"Hnhihihi." "Sayo" laughs. "Gohda-san, I hope you know what you are doing. Gaap is doing a job for Beatrice-sama in this moment. If she wasn't doing anything in this moment, then you could summom her

But in this case..."

Said and done. Gohda's enchant didn't work, but the Devil Token still exists. Be careful next time!

"If you done your move." Shannon (let's call her Shannon. I'm too lazy to write "Sayo" all time) smile with malice. "Take this!"

She opens her arms and 3 red errant shields appears, floating slowly in Gohda's direction.

____________________________________________

"Is that only what you have to show me, Gaap?" Belial cuts again another black hole. "You need to pratice more."

"Shut up!" She jumps into another black hole.

"Hunf... So predictable." Belial jumps in the air and sees a black hole appears above him.

"Oh f*uck!"

Belial uses his sword to cut the air many times.

"Ghaaaaaahh!" Gaap tries to protect herself get into the hole, but it didn't work. "You..."

She gets into a black hole again. Then... Many and many black holes appears.

"Take this! And this! And this! And this!"

Attacking with her high heels, Belial couldn't defend perfectly from them.

Gaap: 9 HP
Belial: 12 HP

"AHAHAHAHA!!!", Chesterton laughs loud, "Napoleon, please guide Gohda's steps for a bit."

As mentioned before, 'Napoleon' is a furniture of Chesterton, but he is not a detective. He is a "just" skilled fighter. Even Virgilia doesn't know why 'Napoleon' is here.

_______________________________________________

The fake Shannon cannot noticed, but Belial and Gaap could recognize his steps as belonging to a famous fighter. Napoleon is not famous, and it's not simple realize from who that technique belongs just looking in middle of a hot battle.

Gohda draws quickly his knives, cutting every shield he can with that sharp iron blades. Something uncommon as happening with that blades, but not exactly an advantage in combat.

Iron, in the Dark Ages, was called "Cold Iron". The metal was known for his capacity to hurt witches, demons, fairies ans supernatural menaces. Especially fairies. Even if it's not like the Brass Knuckles of Jessica or a Scorpion Charm, he could stop furniture blades and hurt supernatural agencies.

It works fine at supernatural like in a human being. But, steel doesn't work THAT fine. May a demon or a witch could regenerate easily if wounded by steel blades, but not iron's.

After he broken the shields, Gohda, guided by Napoleon's help, jumped into flowers and he is hiding, from where he can do a sneak attack.

"That move was really unexpected! You are good, Chess-kun!"

"*giggle* As expected from <Mister> Chesterson"

__________________________________________________________

Belial and Gaap hear Chesterson's furniture, but they don't get intimidate.

"It seems one more furniture will come." Belial says, while attacking Gaap.

"Hunf... He might want those bodies too." each hit Belial tries, Gaap jumps into her black holes.

"Again, predictable." One cut on the ceiling, one cut behind him and another cut in front of him. "What a shame to all demons."

Gaap falls in front of Belial. "Grh... Such proud..." She disappears and try her last blow.

"Aaaaahhh!!" She tries a hit bellow him. Belial deviates, but his avoidance wasn't perfect. "Yes!"

Belial chuckles.

Gaap: 1 HP
Belial: 8 HP

"IMPOSSIBRU! Impossible! How you-- .......... Wait.... Where is him?

The entire scene between Fake Shannon and Gohda/Napoleon becames an example of nature. The Prey cannot even notice the Hunter.

Not even a single rose moves when Shannon spams her shields. When she could not notice, Gohda already jumped, broke a shield with a single blow and, in another quick step, he advances with the knife, aiming vital points.

"<Checkmate>, Gaap!" Belial raises the sword for the final blow....

*bling! blong!*

All second floor gets dark for a few seconds. After this, everything gets back to normal. Only Belial was there, alone.

Gaap disappeared.

"Don't worry, Bel. I will keep our promisse: I won't take those corpses away... But I don't accept to die this way!"

"... That f*cking demon..."

"*ahaha.wav*"

Belial sheathes his sword and waits.

This time, her enchant sphere worked and Gohda was surrounded by a purple sphere. He felt a big pressure under his body and then Shannon throw him away while her sphere exploded.

Gohda smiles and starts to talk in English, while he draws the sauce.

"I am the bone of my kitchen"

Gohda opens his sauce.

"Bread is my body and wine is my blood"

He begins to run toward her.

"I have created over nine thousand dishes"

Two steps before her sphere reach it, he stops suddenly, with the sauce open in front, pointing to her face.

"Unaware of loss, nor aware of gain"

The sudden stopping allows the sauce go toward her quickly.

"Withstood pain to create recipes, waiting for guests' arrival"

Stepping back, he holds the knife the other hand in a "forward grip edge up".

"I have no regrets, Love is the only path"

He stands still, waiting for her advancement.

You nail your second in Shannon's forehead, killing her.

She starts to disappear in a wave of butterflies, together with her colossal red and blue barrier.

Now, the fantasy over. Belial isn't anymore in Guest House, since he was summoned specially to fight against Gaap, while you fought against Shannon.

When you were fighting against Beatrice's furniture, time stopped. Now that you killed her, the time goes back to walk and everything is the same.

Now Gohda will finally reach Battler and George's corpse?

Battler's corpse wasn't there either.

Meanwhile, in Kuwadorian, a cyclone of butterflies arrive, revealing the Witch in Gold, Beatrice.

"Kyahahahaha!" She laughs and throws Battler and George's corpse on the ground, like garbage. "Just because Gaap couldn't do her job, that doesn't mean that I can't do it for her!

Gohda's last Devil Token starts to shine with a bright red light. Butterflies surrounds him and Gaap appears.

"Ahahaha! I bet Rice is pulling her hair out! I will concede this wish, Gohda-sama!

Let's go to Kuwadorian!"

*bling blong!*

The darkness of abyss surrounds you both. Moments later, you are in Kuwadorian. It is beatiful: Sun, fresh air, flowers... Like it's a barrier stopping the rain to get in.

And it was a barrier. WAS. Bit by bit, that barrier starts to dissolve, due to the fact that Gohda is this tale's detective.

Bit by bit, the sky becomes grey and the rain fall on Kuwadorian grounds. That is the truth: The truth of Kuwadorian.

"That was fun. Very fun. Good luck in your investigation, Gohda-sama." Gaap snaps her fingers and jumps into another black hole, disappearing.

Gohda looks around, trying to find anything on the garden. Nothing.

Gohda looks, then, at windows and, in one of those, he sees a girl in a maid dress. You can't see who is he, but she can see you. Some seconds later, she moves away from the window, disappearing.

Chesterson finally reaches Kuwadorian and the truth he wants so much maybe is there, hiding somewhere. What his piece, Toshiro Gohda, will do? Will he unmask Beatrice?

"Gohda, reveal to me your thoughts. You have a different theory than mine. Since that girl has a maid outfit, maybe she is not Beatrice. I don't think she is Shannon, maybe Runon. Say to me. What you think about?", Chesterton asks Gohda.

Gohda's thoughts reveals outside the Gameboard.

"...maybe it's possible she is Berune?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't think so. Mister Eriko already spoke the Fukuin Servants are in vacation. Even if it's not stated in red or purple, they didn't appeared on the Game Board."

"..."

"However, it's possible for the Fukuin Servants aren't in vacation, but living in Kuwadorian. To any Fukuin Servant, Shannon, Jessica and Lion is possible to consider Kumasawa like a mother. Even without blood ties, they're all could love Kumasawa."

"I understand, Chesterton-sama."

"Do you want to see Berune that badly?"

"...since I could die now... I want to see her smile one last time. It's funny, but I'm feeling like Kinzo-sama. But she is not the only one I want to see now. I want to see Jessica-ojou-sama too. I want to protect her."

Then, it became obvious for everyone who could see Chesterton and Gohda sharing thoughts. Chesterton wanted protect Jessica because Gohda saw Jessica in the same way himself saw Dlanor.

Even without blood ties, there's are father's love. Both could not blame Kumasawa to not give to then Beatrice's True Identity.

"...I understand, Gohda. I will do my best for the better happy ending. I will share to you my own skills."

"Thanks, Chesterton-sama."

Gohda grabs the pepper and loosen the lid of the pepper, inside the pocket. If someone attacks him, he will throw the pepper, causing a distraction. In other hand, a knife.

She obvioulsy doesn't answer, since she isn't there anymore. For Gohda, that is only one thing to do: Get inside the house.

Slowly, you walk in door's direction and open it carefully. When you get in... Your nose smells something good. It is a familiar smell.

Food. But it wasn't a normal food, those sold in ordinary restaurants.

It's your food. But better. With a female touch. Your eyes wide open, you couldn't beleive. It is........ Berune's food. You turn your head to your right side and see a door near to a flower's vase. That's probably the kitchen, since Berune's food smell is coming from there.

You try to pay more attention. You heard voices coming from the kitchen. One is Berune's voice.... And the other one...... Asune's voice. You can't hear what they are talking about, but it's probably girl's talk, since their voice tone is a happy one.

Speaking of voices... You hear other two. But they are coming from your left side, coming from that double door.

"Uu~... When breakfast is going to be ready?" you hear Maria's voice.

"Soon, Maria-sama, soon." you hear Manon's voice. "Asune and Berune are working hard to make a perfect breakfast for all of us!"

"Uu~ And... And... Beatrice is going to eat with us?"

"Sure! Why not? *giggle*"

You also hear another voice coming from that room. But it's just TV. Probably that room is a Living Room.

Like Jessica said, there is a stairs in front of you and a corridor.

What are you going to do, Toshiro Gohda? Follow your heart and try to get Berune out of there? Or are you going to finish your detective role in this Witch's Tale? Aaaahhh! So many possibilities!

Ahahahaha!

It is now 10:30. Rosa, Hideyoshi, Genji, Yoshiya and Kumasawa are going to the Chapel. They finally solve Beatrice's Epitaph.

Rosa is carrying a book, but it isn't a ordinay book. It is Kinzo's diary. In this diary, rests the Epitaph's solution.

Everyone get inside the Chapel and goes to the Main Area. There is a door to Chapel's Basement.

"I am sorry, Kumasawa-san." Hideyoshi says. "But we can't take the risk to lost you. Please, stay in basement, please."

"I understand. Thanks for your worry." She get's into basement and locks the door.

Some moments, later, the others go out from Main Area. And then.... Golden butterflies appears, revealing Leviathan and Satan in maid clothes.

"Renon. Sanon." Kumasawa greets them. They seem don't bother with Kumasawa call them like that.

"Kumasawa-san, we are here to take you away." Leviathan says.

"It's your hour, now." Satan says.

"..... I understand." She smiles and both disappear.

Rosa, Hideyoshi, Genji and Yoshiya arrive in the waiting room that Battler, Lion, Genji and Kumasawa passed the night. In that room, a mini-portrait of Beatrice is hanged on the wall.

Rosa opens Kinzo's diary.

"According to father's diary, there is a safe behind it. Yoshiya, please."

"Right, Rosa-sama." Yoshiya removes Beatrice's portrait and an old green safe is revealed.

"If you read father's diary." Rosa continues to talk. "You can see that he wrote many times one specific year:

1944. The year he met with Beatrice... Beatrice Castiglioni."

"I still can't believe that Kinzo-san was really Beatrice's lover and they both had a child... And he and that child....." Hideyoshi says. He still doesn't beleive in it.

"But more importante: Here he says that he gave that child to Natsuhi." Rosa says, get angry. "That child.... Is obviously Lion. And Gohda is his/her accomplice! That's why he ran away that way!

But that doesn't matter now... We need to go where the gold is!"

Rosa turns that "lock" with numbers. 1-9-4-4.

*CLUNCK!*

Rosa opens it and there is a key in a keyhole. She turns it and...

A door opens. A secret passage to gold's locate.

"Now, we just need to get there and--"

*ahaha.wav*

Suddenly, golden butterflies appears.

"Siesta 00, here!"

"Siesta 45, here!"

"Siesta 410, here!"

"Siesta 120, here!"

"Siesta 27, here!"

"""""Siesta Sisters, here!"""""

"What!?"

"We are Siesta Sisters and we are here to protect Beatrice-sama's gold!" Siesta 00 says. "Shageki!"

Golden threads surrounds everyone and hold them in the air.

"At 3o twillight, you shall praise my noble name.

Praise Beatrice-sama's name! It's an order!"

"Wrong! It's father's name! Ushiromiya Kinzo's name! Lord Ushiromiya's name!

U LORD!!
" Rosa screams and all those golden threads became purple, dissolving little by little.

*KPLOF!*

All 4 people fall on the floor.

"Run, everyone, run!" Rosa says, leading the path to the gold.

Gohda will not leave with Berune.... yet. First, he needed to understand the situation. It's obvious he needed to talk them. The pepper is ready in his pocket anyway, but he dropped the knife on the pocket. He goes to the kitchen.

He was pretty confused. How a nest of killers and kidnappers could be so happy and normal? He needed to talk them, understand the situation... and try to solve the Epitaph BEFORE they noticed he didn't knew the solution.

"Berune-chan! Are you here too?"

Yes, all other servants became secondary.

"As I expected... none of you went on vacation."

He was trying to keeping himself calm. But he was worried with Jessica. And his was hungry; defeated the Fake Shannon let him exausted... and Berune is food was so sweet, like her heart.

He smiled, one last time.

And, as magic, all that chatter disappeared. All joy. Berune and Asune stopped to cook and got hard like statues, but at same time relaxed.

"Yep." Berune said with a cold tone, not even turned around to look at Gohda.

"But we get out from vacation." Asune completed, with same attitude. "We arrived in Rokkenjima yesterday, by boat."

Berune turned off the stove. She didn't want to let food burn.

"Stay right there, Gohda-san." You hear Manon's voice and a trigger sound. She was between living room and the kitchen. "You don't wanna get shot, don't you?

Also, if you try something against me or try to escape throught the corridor, Runon is gonna shot you. She is on the middle of stairs, with a gun."

"Ushiromiya Rosa asked to Maria go to Kuwadorian! She knows the way! And that's why she tried to made look you or Yoshiya kidnapped her! She lead the way in the Witch-Hunt and knocked you out!"

"She tried keep an eye on you too, in the kitchen. Since you didn't anything who could blame her, she ignored our moves. But she asked to Battler and George fake their own deaths and this is why their corpses gone!"

"Battler came to Rokkenjima and faked an affair with Lion, just to know the whereabouts of the Gold. I don't know about George, but maybe he is dangerous."

"Listen to me, there is no culprits inside the Fukuin Servants!"

"Could you deny THIS, Mister Eriko?"

"Kynhuhhuhu! I think your theory will deny it by itself with my next move."

You all hear a door sound, coming from the end of corridor.

"*arf**arf**arf* ....... This is...." it is Rosa's voice. "This is Kuwadorian! I... I made it! I finally arrive!"

You hear her fast steps coming in your direction.

"Maria! Maria! Whe--" She stops suddenly, seeing you. "You..."

Rosa points her winchester to you. "You are the cul--"

Then, she sees Manon pointing a gun to you. "Wha--"

"Please, Rosa-sama..." Then she hears Runon's voice. She looks up, seeing her on the stairs. "Don't move, Maria-sama is on the living room."

"Is she alive!?"

"Go there and see by your--"

"Mama?" Maria goes out the living room, seeing her mother and ignoring Gohda completly. "Mama! Mama! You finally arrived! Uu~! Uu~! Beatrice was right! She knew you were going to solve her Epitaph!"

Maria runs in Rosa's direction. Both hug each other.

"Maria... Maria..." Rosa can't hold her tears and cry. "Mama finally finds you..."

*ZUUUUUUMMM!*

You all hear that sound. Like an elevator.

"What is...?" Rosa says, confused.

"You will soon see, Rosa-sama." Runo says. Both Runon and Manon are aiming in Gohda, in case he ruins everything.

The door near to Living room's double door opens. Gohda turns his head carefully, trying to see who will get out of there.

It is Renon and Sanon. That door was...... An elevator's door?

Both maids look to Rosa.

"Welcome to Kuwadorian, Rosa-sama." Sanon greets her.

"'Welcome' my ass!" She points his gun to both.

"Our intention is not hurt you and Maria-sama." Sanon says.

"Exactly." Renon says. "Beatrice-sama ordered us to make sure that you, Maria-sama and Kumasawa-san leave Rokkenjima alive.

She doesn't want to kill anyone of you."

"This elevator will carry you to an underground corridor. In the end of this corridor, you will see an underground dock."

"Uu~ There is the place that Beatrice's pirate ship is, right?"

"Yes, Maria-sama." Renon giggles. "Now, Rosa-sama, you and Maria-sama must go now."

"What about Gohda-san?"

"........ We will talk to Beatrice-sama. She know what to do with him."

"And what about the gold? All that gold..."

"All that gold is fake. Beatrice-sama took away the gold from Rokkenjima and deposited and many bank accounts. Inside the ship, you will see a letter with a bank card and a key with a PIN number. This is the key for a coffer that contains the gold.

Please, go now."

Rosa looks to Gohda with sad eyes. "I am sorry, Gohda-san. I am so sorry... But I need to think in Maria first.

Let's go, Maria."

"Bye bye, Fukuin!" She smiles, while she walk away with her mama. "Kihihihi. Goodbye, Gohda. Be happy for be one of Beatrice's sacrifice!"

With that, Rosa and Maria get into the elevator and go away.

"I think I can awnser all your questions, Gohda-san!"

""""Beatrice-sama.""""

"Bring Toshiro Gohda to my room."

"As you wish, Beatrice-sama." Runon says.

Manon lowers her gun, letting you pass. You follow Runon to Beatrice's room. In front of the door, she looks for something dangerous in your body, tooking away your pepper, salt, sauce and knife.

"You can get in, now, Gohda-san." Runon opens the door and you get in. "Good luck."

She closes and lock the door.

Gohda and Beatrice. In front of each other. You could see her body, her face... Everthing. She is alive.

"Before we get start, I need to do something." Beatrice says, going to her make-up desk.

And then you saw her undo her braiding. Her long and blond hair is free now. So golden and so beatiful.

Then you saw her rub some liquid in her face. Maybe it's something to remove make-up. She dryies her face and then....... Beatrice turns around to you.

"What do you wanna know..." It is Lion. He/She smiles. "Gohda-san?"

Gohda shares the same despair.

"I'M SORRY... I COULDN'T PROTECT JESSICA! I DID EVERYTHING WRONG! I CAN'T BLAME THE FUKUIN FOR ALL HER HATRED!"

Henrica appears in front of Chesterson in a wave of silver butterflies. "You didn't fail, <Mister> Chesterson-sama. Sometimes we think our moves inside Chessboard are only going to give us joy and bliss, but we, in fact, only receive pain and sorrow.

Don't blame yourself. Without Yoshiya-sama alive, Jessica would never be able to escape from Rokkenjima with life."

"Beatrice-sama." Berune says, in the other side of the door.

"Yes, Berune?"

"I am here to confirm the victims from 4o,5o and 6o Twillight.
4o Twillight, Ushiromiya Hideyoshi.
5o Twillight, Servant Yoshiya.
6o Twillight, Servant Genji.
"

"Thanks, Berune. You can all go now." Lion stands up and opens his/her dresser from make-up desk. In his/her hands, a gun. "We need to complete it Beatrice's epitaph, Gohda-san."

"No... Beatrice-sama... Don't do this!" Berune says, kicking the door. "Please, noo! Gohda! Gohda!"

"Berune, stop!" Sanon says.

"Let me go! Let me go! Gohda! Gohda!"

"At 7o Twillight, gauges the knee and kill." Lion shots in Gohda's head, killing him. Then, he/she shots in Gohda's knee.

"GOHDAAAAAAAAA!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!"

"At 8o Twillight, gagues the leg and kill." Lion shots his/her own leg. It hurts, but he/she need it. Then.... A shot in his/her chest.

Lion falls on the floor.

"At.... At 9o Twillight...... The witch shall... Shall revive and.... None... None....... Shall.... Sur...... Survive."

Lion dies, in the most perfect closed room.

"Beatrice-sama?" Sanon says. "Bea..... Oh god..... We need to go. Beatrice-sama...."

"No! I want to take Gohda's corpse with us! I can't--"

"No! Our job is finished, we have to go!"

Silence. Silenc all over the room. That means that Berune agreed with her sister. Poor Berune.

But this tale isn't end. We need to see until 10o Twillight and then all doors to 1987-Rokkenjima can be closed.

"I failed, Miss Henrica. Everyone died. I couldn't solve the mystery. My piece died. I cannot do anything anymore", Chesterton cries in despair.

"Of course you have. You will confess."

An insignificant figures appears in the room with Napoleon and ohter guy. That "other guy" was a man who could not cover his singular height.

But that "insignifcant figure" was a Priest. The little priest was so much the essence of those Eastern flats; he had a face as round and dull as a Norfolk dumpling; he had eyes as empty as the North Sea. The most notable trait of him is "not possess any trait worthy of noticed".

"You will do the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation and I will be honored to allow Christ forgive you."

"Father Brown...", Chesterton whispers.

"Let's go", answers the Father Brown. Napoleon and Flambeau helps Chesterton to rise.

They start to leave the room and they turn his backs to everyone.

Eriko snaps his fingers and the world inside chessboard stop to move. He was confused, and a little angry.

"Virgilia-sama!" Eriko ordered.

"My child, I think you can't do nothing about it."

"But--"

"Don't. This is beyond your knowledge about the world."

"I see..." Eriko thinks. "Them...."

Belial appears. "What now?"

"Please, follow these gentle... These gu... These people you worked when you were in Heaven. Make sure that nothing happen to Chess-kun."

"If necessary, I would absolve the culprit, if they find them."

Chesterton arrives with Father Brown and Belial. Napoleon and Flambeau went to finish Chesterton's Research about the Eco's Labyrinth.

"<Mister> Chesterton!"

Dlanor salutes Chesterton in an unusual way to her. She was worried.

"<Mister> Chesterton... please forgive ME", she said, until hugs him strongly, "I did not tell you how much fortunate I am for have someone like you at my SIDE."

"Dlanor... Thanks...", Chesterton starts to cry again, hugging Dlanor, "But why you are here?"

"<Mister> Napoleon called ME. He was worried TOO."

"Dlanor... I should apologize. I could not make you happy..."

"I am HAPPY. You can not be my father, but you are like a... grandfather to ME."

"But... How? I done everything wrong, your trauma never vanished and..."

Dlanor stops Chesterton's lips with a single finger.

"Did you REMEMBER? Happiness is a mystery, like religion, and should never be RATIONALISED. It does not make SENSE. It just IS."

"Dlanor..."

They hug each other, like grandfather and granddaughter.

"FIGHT... Even if you LOST... You will be always my beloved GRANDFATHER. Remember THAT."

The spark of life in Chesterton's eyes burned like fire.

"Mister Eriko. I want clarifications before the next Twilight. I'm seeing inconsistencies who cannot be that can not be postponed."

"First, I need to know how the Twin Devil Tokens work. Since Gohda died and they're all gone, you won't deny this knowledge to me, right?"

"You finally recovered your souls, aren't you? Kunhuhuhu. Good, good.

Well... About the Twin Devil's Token: As I said, you just need Two Devil's Token to fabricate one of those. You only need a simple thing: Magic. If Gohda had two Devil's Token when he was at Lion's Library, in the same book had a chapter talking about it.

You need to make a potion or you need to be a witch and use your magical powers. Simple, isn't?"

"So... let me state about my piece Gohda never denied the magic's existance until this very point on the Game Board. Even when he cook with the other, he talked about Magic and Love."

"Since the Twin Devils Token has the SAME FORMULA than normal Devil Token, he could summon Zepar Furfur and at that moment without losing the Devil Tokens."

"As stated in the book:

How to use: Speak out loud a generic enchant and nothing more. Don't forget to say the name of the demon you want to summom. If you don't, you can summom a dangerous demon that will kill you and eat your body."

"He did that and trusted magic. The "How to use" doesn't states any 'you need to read this book first'. So, he could summon Zepar and Furfur."

"Therefore, he unfairly lost their tokens at the beginning and I lost resources to play the game. What you will do about that?"

"But, <Mister> Chesterton, there is a Knox about THAT..."

"Knox doesn't enforces this game, Dlanor. Eriko give me rights to use magic."

"You're forgetting something, Mister Eriko... Gohda is a Magical Chef! Before deny it, listen to me."

Dlanor widened her eyes, but Father Brown smiled.

"Gohda fought against Fake Shannon without any previous training. How he did that awesome techniques? He was a Magical Chef!"

"More. Gohda ate the breakfast with the survivors of the forest. Gohda entered inside the Guest House AFTER that and came to Kuwadorian BEFORE the breakfast of Fukuin Servants and Maria."

"How he did that? Gohda is a Magical Chef!"

Dlanor was surprised.

"BUT... It doesn't make any SENSE! Detective sure should be logical BEINGS! Not Supernatural ONES!"

"Dlanor... Men talk of the extravagances and frenzies that have been produced by mysticism; they are a mere drop in the bucket. In the main, and from the beginning of time, mysticism has kept men sane. The thing that has driven them mad was logic..."

"The only thing that has kept the race of men from the mad extremes of the convent and the pirate-galley, the night-club and the lethal chamber, has been mysticism — the belief that logic is misleading, and that things are not what they seem."

"Gyahahahaha! Just this!? Well, well...

It was 9:27 when everyone get into Lion's room. Then Gohda and Yoshiya planned a distraction and Gohda got out to Guest House. He fought with Fake Sayo, but it doesn't matter because the time stopped while this fight happened.

When you Gohda got inside Guest House, he used Gaap's power to carrying him to Kuwadorian.
When he arrived was 10:30.

This means that Gohda spent around 1h30min to arrive in Kuwadorian by foot. You really thought that I would give you those Devil Token, let you use magic without think in a reasonable solution to it? I am not stupid at all!"

"Like Rosa, when she was young, he ran, ran and ran. In a luck stroke, he found Kuwadorian. Also, I am not cheating. You opt to use magic and I MUST give a rational solution to all magic presented in this Gameboard!

And, well... You couldn't see Gohda spent all that time running throught the forest because you used MAGIC, a camouflage."

"He is right, <Mister> Chesterson. Inside a witch's gameboard, you have to extract all that isn't possible and you know what is left? The truth.

Gohda used magic to teleport himself to Kuwadorian. But this isn't real, is it? No. If you extract this teleport, what do you have? Someone arriving in Kuwadorian by foot. And how he arrived there in this short time? Running. And, obviously, a little of luck." Virgilia explains to Chesterson. That fight between Eriko and Chesterson about that could take forever.

"<Lady> Virgilia-sama is right, <Mister Detective> Chesterson." Henrica says. "Even if you didn't saw Gohda-sama running throught the forest, you are in Human's side. You need to think: 'If I, the human's side detective, am using magic, then what happened in reality?'"

"I, Gilbert Keith Chesterton, am not at Human's Side or Witches' Side. Who told you that?"

"The challenge is 'to find the culprit'. That is what you said to me. Are you saying to me that you lied?"

"Let me repeat what you said to me:

By seeing others Kakera inside this wonderful land and hearing your wish, I honorably grant your wish. I challenge you to unmask The Culprit. I know I am not a perfect Game Master and Puzzle Maker. Still, I wish you to grant my will and solve this game. You can discover who is The Culprit by any method you want to use. I don't care what method is it."

"Since you said THAT, it's reasonable to me use magic to find the culprit. Your work, Game Master, it's not proof to me the magic's existance, but hide the Culprit."

"You called me for a reason. Find The Culprit. Unmask the Culprit. And you said you DON'T CARE about my methods."

"So, even if I recognized magic, I still in the game. The Game who Mister Eriko called me is not about fantasy versus mystery. The Game who Mister Eriko called me is about find The Culprit."

"As Game Master, you must not change the rules and the purpose of the Game."

"If you want to me deny magic since beginning, we're losting time. My purpose is NOT TO DENY MAGIC AND WITCHES. My purpose is TO HUNT CULPRITS."

"I'm pretty surprised that Virgilia didn't told you that and didn't even remembered that. I'm surprised with you too, because you forgot my Poirot-piece and EVA's Dialogue on Devil's Roulette. He told her, he doesn't try to deny magic and witches too."

"After all, this is why you called me. Because I respect witches and magic. Because me, Chesterton, do not try to kill witches with burning swords."

"Have I made myself understandable?"

Dlanor was surprised. She knew Chesterton was tolerant with witches, but she didn't imagine such movements on your part. Was he desperate?

Father Brown approached her.

"Sister Dlanor, something is wrong?"

"...YES. I do not understand GRANDFATHER. Why he want to find the CULPRITS? It is not our JOB. Our job it is to kill WITCHES. Even if it HURTS..."

"This is why he left the Inquisition, Sister Dlanor. To him, if witches doesn't commit crimes, but human culprits, why innocent witches had to suffer? That's make no sense."

"...", Dlanor couldn't understand. The entire purpose of her life was to kill witches and deny the supernatural. If the witch was really exist, she couldn't be killed. That's all she was thinking until now.

But Chesterton didn't hate witches at all. He likes Virgilia and a lot of witches respect him. He want to take the Culprit, so he can let the witch live, not to die. He was so different of her! Is he wrong?

"Mister Chesterton didn't want you to read that. But you will understand his purposes now", said Father Brown, giving to her a book.

Dlanor couldn't believe. That book was a diary. Father Knox's Diary. And it was a bookmark at the very end. She reads.

...it seems that in the end, Chesterton was right. I met a witch. So beautiful, so beautiful, so... sad. She had a board considered invincible. Today, after many battles, I won. I found the culprit.

She shed tears of gratitude, because I have freed her from the guilt of the deaths that did not commit. She was ready to die. He closed his eyes, smiling. I raised my sword, crying.

And then I saw. The culprit. Freed. Alive. Eating at the finest restaurants, drinking the most delicious wines. I got myself in anger and committed a sin. I saved the life of the witch and killed the real culprit.

Perhaps those who read this diary never understand. But I think I did not commit a sin, but I did the right thing. My sword should not drink the blood of innocents, but to punish the culprits. This truth has become so obvious that I cannot face my sin most vile. The Decalogue.

I hate my Decalogue. I hate it with all my strength. It is certainly my most abject sin and now, I will answer for made him. My doors get beating from furious inquisitors. I can not blame them for hating me. All what they believed and what I also believed turned to dust.

Chesterton, my friend. I write this part of the day for you. I will hide it in a place where only a inquisitor from your level could find.

I have two wishes. First. Forgive me. Your Principles are right. We should not condemn witches, but save them. From themselves and from the true culprits.

Second. My precious daughter. Take care of her. Made her know I am fool. Teach her principles, which show her disgusting and I am defeated. Do not let her admire me. I am not worthy. Above all, make her happy.

You are my most precious friend. Take care from yourself.

From your friend, now dead,
Knox


Dlanor shed tears. For the first time of her life, she showed such emotions. It was the very first time everyone could see her in such profound sadness.

"<Father> Brown... what I should to DO? I... need to praise my honorable father and my honorable GRANDFATHER..."

"Look at Game Board. There is something even Eriko doesn't know."

Dlanor's eyes shined.

[I already said to Eriko-san it would be 3 posts, so don't worry]

"I found it, <Mister> Chesterton! I found IT!"

"Calm down, Dlanor. What did you found?"

"<Mister> Eriko. You can not be certain what happened inside <Mister> Lion's Closed ROOM. Because there is a factor you do not COMMAND."

Dlanor points to an object who Gohda holds. No Fukuin Servant took that of him. Gohda was with his Marmitex yet.

"Dlanor, my precious! You saved my life!"

"Mister Eriko! Since you are the Game Master and can say with all that certain that Gohda couldn't use magic, here is a challenge to you."

"This food who Gohda contains, is, actually, Magical Food! He prepared that magical food with all of his magical power and love. He can keep Lion sane again, without killing Gohda or himself. In Fantasy, that is the proof to Beatrice that Gohda is actually, a True Magician, a powerful Sorcerer who can ressurect her without the Twilights."

"If you want to proof this food is NOT MAGICAL, say to me the exactly food is inside."

"I will check the kind of food to you, <Mister> Eriko, so do not WORRY."

Only Gohda, Dlanor and Chesterton knows what lies inside the Marmitex. Even Rosa couldn't knew, because she was running to see Battler and George's corpses.

"Oops.... I forgot! *ahaha.wav*"

"Grr....... But you are right, Chess-kun. I can't contradict myself. If you want to unmask the culprit using magic, then you can do this. As I said before: I don't care." Eriko grins.

"It seems you now have to figure out what food is inside Gohda's marmitex, <Lord> Eriko-sama." Henrica says. "If you want to concretize 7th and 8th Twillight."

"Hum........ Nope. I won't try to guess what food is inside that marmitex. You can revive Lion and Gohda." Eriko facepalms. "Let's see if a miracle will happen."

"So, this is how you want to do, Beatrice? Killing Lion and my mortal vessel?", Gohda responds to Beatrice.

"Make Berune... no Beelzebub, your loyal servant, cry?"

Gohda stand up from the floor, with the shot still on his face. He wasn't dead.

"You really want that? Make the Twilights and kill everyone? Make everyone suffer? Make everyone and even your own heart sad?"

"Let's sit and talk, Beatrice. I, the Magical Gohda Chef, am requiring an audience with you."

"I think with we join our powers, we can do a better end to everyone."

Beatrice, if was there, could notice a powerful source of magic energy with Gohda... no. It wasn't Gohda anymore, but GOHDA, also know as Magical Gohda Chef.

Maybe, just maybe, he could broke Goldsmith's Seal and ressurect her without anymore Twilights.

"I don't know how you feel, Beatrice, Golden Witch. But I know Kumasawa... Virgilia feels. If you or Lion dies, she would suffer too much! I'm suffering with Jessica's death. Don't perpetrate the suffering anymore. Right now, Berune will suffer with my death. The Fukuin will suffer with OUR death. Kumasawa and Virgilia will suffer too."

"Could us open a Golden Land with another kind of magic?"

In a golden and warm breath, Gohda could fell Beatrice's presence. Like an angel, she floats from the golden skies. Butterflies are surrounding her, like cherubim.

"I, Golden Witch, Beatrice grant your wish to have an audience with me." She says in a calm tone.

"I heard everything what you said, Toshiro Gohda, Magical Chef. And here is my answer........

No. My destiny is now fulfilled. I cannot take a step back. However, you have power to ressurect you and Ushiromiya Lion. You can try to escape, but I don't guarantee that you both can escape with life.

Also, if you ressurect you and Ushiromiya Lion, automaticaly Yasuda Sayo and Ushiromiya Jessica will become 7th and 8th Twillight sacrifices.

The audience is now finished. The choice is yours."

Beatrice disappears. Gohda is back in his own Closed Room in Kuwadorian. He can see his body and Lion's body. Will he ressurect them?

"What you doing, Chesterton?! Stop playing! Did you heard Henrica's red and Eriko's red! They're already dead! If they're already dead, even if you choose Gohda and Lion's death, they won't ressurrect!"

"Father Brown..."

"Listen! It's because that behavior of you, trying to make people happy, that Eriko could finish that Twilights! You have a job here! Don't try to change God's Will!

"If you really regret your sins, do the RIGHT THING. Do what God commands to you. Find the Culprit. That is the minimal tribute you own for the lives you killed."

"Yes, you killed, Chesterton. You are the real culprit. You should do your job! You killed them all!"

It's too late for me. I must stay here and fulfill my destiny. My destiny as Beatrice."

"Lion-sama... I understand. I'm listen and I'll obey. But you need to tell me WHERE THEY'RE GO?!"

Gohda knews that Lion never would go with him. And he needed to find the culprits and save Berune.

He couldn't spend the life who Dlanor and Chesterton gave to him, even loving Lion so much. It was his final will.

And after the twilights happen, he would open the Golden Land with his own hands. His magic would certainly made everyone happy, no matter how much time it would takes.

"They went to that dock where Captain Kawabata lands our food. You know where is, but the path you usually took is very far from here. Because of it, I'll say to you the path that you can take from here, Kuwadorian, and arrive there very fast."

Lion told to him and Gohda ran from there very fast.

"..... Now, I just need to wait." Lion lays his head on the door. "Jessica-chan... I am..."

Suddenly, a light. ".....!? Im.... Impossible...."

There it was.... Beatrice.... The ghost.

"Beatrice...."

"Ushiromiya Lion... My descendent."

"Are you here to take my away?"

"No. I am here to grant you your last wish."

"But I don't ha--"

"Don't lie to me, Ushiromiya Lion. I am here with a friend that wants to stay with you for the last time."

"No... That can't be..."

And then.... There he was.... Ushiromiya Battler.

"Thanks, Beato. You make this boy very happy."

"Don't thank me. Thank you and Lion: Your love is so strong that could suprass life&death barrier.

Now, I must go. <Goodbye>."

""Goodbye, Beatrice.""

Beatrice disappears, letting Lion and Battler alone.

"Oh, Battler!" Lion and Battler hugs each other. "I thought you..."

"Shhh..." Battler silences Lion with a kiss. "We need to enjoy our last moments together."

"You are right, Battler-kun." He/She kisses Battler and both walk to the bed.

Gohda runs through the woods. He feels that someone was brought from the dead temporarily, by magic.

He continues to run without stopping, looking for Berune.
_______________________________________________

"Fine. Since GOHDA is now a magic being, could you give him back that Two Devil Tokens? After all, he is a magic being and could have used that tokens without waste it", Chesterton said, exausted and sweating.

"And for the inconvenience to be without them, we could say he hide it in his SHOES. So no Fukuin Servant could detect IT. What do you think, <Mister> Eriko?", Dlanor complements.

"And I will bring tea. Miss Virgilia, could you help me to make tea? Mister Chesterton said your tea is superb", Father Brown asks for a feminine hand.

"Okay, okay... I will give up those two Devil Token. Here." Two colorful spheresof light get out from Eriko's camera and jumps into Gameboard. There, everyone could see those two spheres get into Gohda's pocket.
________________________________________________________
Gohda runs, runs and runs. Until....

"...!! That heavy footsteps..." Berune look back. "GOHDA!"

All Fukuin Servants look too. It is Gohda.

"I can't beleive it! Beatrice-sama spared your life!" Asune says with joy, while watching her sister and Gohda hugging each other.

"Gohdaaa! Gohdaaa! Uaaaahhh! I thougth... I thought you.... *hic**hic*"

"But...." Manon says. "What about Beatrice-sama?"

"She is now fulfilling her destiny, Manon-nee." Reinon (Belphegor) says. "She is ready for carry her burden of Golden Witch."

"Hurry, everyone!!" Sanon screams. "We need to go to that secret dock!! We must get out of here!"


Meanwhile, in Main Hall of Main Building...
[BGM: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FlMue9BHp4 ]

Belial arrives in a wave of golden butterflies. Henrica also arrives with Belial, but in a wave of silver butterflies. They walks to Beatrice's portrait, admiring it for the last time.

Suddenly, black butterflies starts to get out of Beatrice's portrait, tearing, destroying, shredding that marvelous painting. Bit by bit, a scent of anti-magic toxin manifests in the air, burning the rest of Beatrice's painting.

And finally, from the outside of that destroyed portrait, a witch in a black dress gets out.

"Welcome, ROSA-sama." Belial greets her.

"Welcome, <Premier> ROSA-sama." Henrica makes a bow.

"Thank you, Belial. Thank you, Le Blanche." ROSA says. "With Rosa solving Beatrice's epitaph, I could finally break throught the barrier between Meta-world room and chessboard. I am now here for complete!"

ROSA laughs, while her black butterflies reconstruct the Main Hall portrait. Beatrice's portrait is replaced by ROSA's portrait when she was young. (picture related)

ROSA turns around, facing her portrait. "Ah!, Beato! Thanks for killing everyone for me! I just need to complete 9th and 10th Twillight!"

"And, for curiosity, what are you going to do after this, ROSA-sama?"

"I'll say to you: I am going to destroy this island! I will bury this island in the depts of anti-magic toxin and disappear with it!

Nobody will ever put a foot on this island again!"

"That is a perfect strategy, ROSA-sama." Belial chuckles. "Do you want me to kill Gohda and Fukuin Servants?"

"No. A last minute miracle can happen and Gohda defeats you. I'm going to do this by myself. No magic being can win against Anti-Magic Toxin."

"And me, <Lady> ROSA-sama?" Henrica asks.

"You can stay and watch. If you fight against Gohda, I doubt that he will kill you, since you are Jessica-chan's pet. It can be very fun to watch, put I won't take this risk."

"Understood, <Lady> ROSA-sama."

"If I need anyone of you, I will call. But be alert to anything. This is my order."

""As you wish."" Both disappear.

"It's time to fulfill Beatrice's Epitaph!"

The witch laughs like Paola Bracho a real evil diva and disappears.

Chesterton laughs.

"You are as predictable as an action movie of the fifth category, Mister Eriko", he says when Napoleon arrives.

Napoleon was wearing his halbeard. He was there just for this moment.

"As I expected, you used the most 'powerful' weapon to ruin the Game Board. You are a not bad Game Master, but you are not perfect. You know, it's not against the rules send a Deus Ex Machina to fight players. But it's not a worth move. It will just show you want to use characters who you admire for their power and epicness, not to tell a story."

"Since the beginning, even if you're giving me many chances, I realized you would enforce all the Twilights and summon ROSA to you, no matter what I did."

"I will give you a last chance. I know you will refuse, but, play SERIOUSLY. Send ROSA to home and stop to send that stupid overpowered characters just for start to cackles like a witty-bitty. Stop to use the 'most BADASS characters ever just to show their AWESOMENESS'. I will give to you a chance stop to being stupid."

"Play seriously or you will get the worst headache ever."

"I am sorry for this, Chess-kun, but I can't send ROSA back to home. She is my one of my last pieces inside Gameboard."

Eriko points his finger to the chessboard, showing ROSA as the Queen. Beatrice is the King, while Henrica is a Horse and Belial is a Tower.

Queen, Horse and Tower. Those 3 piecesare protecting the King. However, only the Queen is near enough to the King, while Horse and Tower are needed a few moves to protect the King perfectly.

"ROSA is the piece that will fulfill 9th and 10th Twillight. She is going to be the one who will lower the curtains of my tale." Eriko tries to explain, although Chesterson probably won't accept this. "I planned this since the beggining. If she goes away or if she dies, then I don't know what is going to happen.

She can't die, Chesterson! It's....... Impossible! If you want to send Napoleon to fight against ROSA, it's fine. But I can't send her back home!"

"As we said before, <Mister Detective> Chesterson-sama: Magic can be many things. Can be real or not. Can be a camouflage or an interpretation of reality." Henrica tries to explain too. "In this case, <Lord> Eriko-sama used a great amount of magic to make <Lady> ROSA-sama as his piece. If she dies, then everything will be ruined."

"I do want to say why the child want to keep ROSA in this gameboard, but if I say, I will reveal what happens in 9th and 10th Twillight." Virgilia says.

"So, Chesterson, what do you say?" Eriko says with a serious tone. It is the first time Eriko don't call him "Chess-kun".

Napoleon smiles serenely. But his serenely is so cold, so empty who cold devoure anyone. Dlanor starts to find herself dazed.

"Of course you can. We are not playing chess, but a challenge who find the culprit. You know Gohda has no chance against ROSA. You know Gohda cannot find the culprit just escaping alive with the Fukuin. Even a 'normal being' cannot won against ROSA."

"But Napoleon can. He can even kill ROSA, but using some 'unfair and anti-plot powers'. I don't want to do this. But Gohda has a last job to do by his own. I will not let you make his feelings being wasted by a terrible witch."

"Let Gohda go away with the Fukuin. Then, we will spare ROSA's life."

"GRANDFATHER... I not feeling WELL..."

Father Brown brings the tea. He looks the Halbeard of Napoleon and he understand the situation.

"Sister Dlanor, please take a sit and drink this delicious tea. Chesterton, you shouldn't bring Napoleon here. You know... using him is... a kind of wrong."

Napoleon says nothing. It's like he wasn't there. He just smiles.

"Gohda needs to do something, Father. I need Napoleon to confront ROSA or Gohda will be killed before he do his last will."

"Certainly, Chesterton... Mister Eriko. Could you be a little reasonable and let Gohda do a few things before you killed him? Since you need him DEAD, you could extend his life just for a while...", Father Brown asks, politely.

Eriko listen Father Brown's words. He thinks a little and sighs. "Sure, I will let Gohda live for a some more moments. But I can't let him and the Fukuin escape from Rokkenjima with life.

I am sorry. Just a miracle can do this. And since Bernkastel is dead, I can't do this by myself."

"Chesterton, be reasonable too! Napoleon will twist all the Game Board. You will lost because you asked him to cheat! And it is a sin."

"Fine... but since Gohda will do something... let Gohda listen her answer..."

Implicitly, Chesterton showed what he wants from Gohda. He wants to Gohda make his last confession and want to him listen Berune's answer.

Maybe Chesterton remembered something.

"It could be done? Gohda will die with no remorse. He told me so."

Gohda cleared his throat. He was nervous. I could not tell if it was because more would die pretty soon in the hands of the Premier was going to die or why would confess his love.

He swallowed and went to Berune.

"Berune-chan... could we talk? Just you and me. It's important. Pretty important."

They are almost arriving at secret dock, when Berune hears Gohda.

"Sure, Gohda." she smiles. Maybe this is the last time that Gohda sees her smiling. "What do you wanna talk about that you can't wait to arrive at the dock?"

"I want you to taste this", Gohda opened the marmitex.

It's a kind of dessert. Remembered a pie, ice-cream, mousse and pudding.

"I call this dessert 'Berune'. Taste it. The flavor mixes both a salty taste and a sweet taste."

"But even with these two different flavors, I guarantee that's remarkable."
__________________________________________________________

"Berune, Mister Eriko, is what was inside the marmitex", Chesterton shed a single tear.

Napoleon disappeared. Father Brown asked Virgilia to serve the tea. He wasn't satisfied with Napoleon's absence and he looked for him, asking Belial's help.

But Belial probably will not care, and will say that ROSA could take care of herself.

Dlanor drank a lot of tea. She looked much better and even willing to prove the Dessert Berune, but said nothing.

"You can go, Belial. I still have your piece in gameboard." Eriko says.

"Sure, Eriko-sama." Belial goes with Father Brown. "So, what's new in Heaven? Did anyone come with a proposal about give more pure and non-lust clothes to Eiserne Jungfrau? I think no: There are many pedo-priests in that place."

Belial laughs.

________________________________________________________
"Goh... Gohda..." Berune blushes. She uses her finger as fork and tastes. "Hum... It's... It's........

<IT'S DELICIOUS!>"

Berune's eyes shines. It is the perfect dessert. She couldn't describe it.

"Flavor... Texture... Softness... Everything... Everything is perfect and balanced like cosmic energy in universe! IT'S PAAFEKUTO!"

She calms down. She breaths deep. "I have something for you too, Gohda."

She takes from her pocket a velvety black box. She gets closer from Gohda. She opens it.

A marriage ring. "Toshiro Gohda..... Will you.... Marry me?"

That is Berune's reason to ally with The Culprit: Toshiro Gohda, the one she loves.
The Culprit offered part of gold to each one of them. Everyone, except for Berune and Asune, agreed at start.
Asune didn't want because Berune didn't want too.
However, Berune thought a little more: She didn't have much money. How she and Gohda could go away from that island and live their dream: Travel around the world, working in each kitchen in each country. Learn more and more... And love each other. Have kids. The perfect dream.
When Berune accepted the culprit's offer, Asune accepted too.

Berune's "Whydunnit" is love. Love for Toshiro Gohda.

"I can not deny your logic", for the first time ever since he arrived, Father Brown laughed.

""WHAT A TWIST!"", Dlanor and Chesterton said at same time and then, they laugh.

______________________________________________

"I wanted to say that!", Gohda looks pretty embarassed.

"Of course I will marry you!", he offered a sincere smile, "I want to cook at your side for the rest of my life! I want to have many children! I want to go with you to many restaurants! Even after death, I will always love you. Magic. Anti-Magic. Nothing can not deny my love for you!"

"I thought you was upset when I arrived at Kuwadorian... I thought you hated me... But I'm happy now. Nothing can erase my happiness. Nothing."

"Hey! You too!" Sanon screams again. "Let's get into the boat or what? We can get a room for you both when we arrive in Niijima!"

"*giggle**giggle**giggle* Let's go..." Berune puts the wedding rings in both hands. "My hunsband."

Berune and Gohda get into the boat. Runon, Renon, Sanon, Reinon, Manon, Berune, Asune and Gohda. All of them are inside the boat.

I envy them. They will not feel anything when they die in some minutes. They will just feel happiness, for finally get out of that island. Just... Happiness.

"Hnhihi." The black witch shows up in the secret dock. "Burn."

*BOOM!*

An explosion and fire. A lot of fire. Those 8 people didn't feel nothing.

"At the 9th Twillight, the witch shall revive and none shall survive." the boat evaporates. "Done."

ROSA flies into Rokkenjima's skies. From there, she can see the island burn. She laughs.

"Rokkenjima is mine! All mine!" a little sphere of pure light appears between her fingers. "Now... The Grand Finale!"

Meanwhile, in the middle of ocean, Rosa, Maria and Kumasawa can still see Rokkenjima, but they can't see the fire. In the top of the ship, a white witch is there.

"I am sorry, Jessica." It is Henrica. "I can't be there with you. However...."

Henrica becomes a white cat and goes to Rosa's leg. "Puuurrr..."

"Oh... Henrica?" Rosa catches her on the lap and then... "Wha....!?"

Rosa, Maria and Kumasawa see a light and then...

*BOOM!*

An explosion of light. A powerfull power, like Hiroshima and Nagazaki's bomb.
For some seconds, they can't see anything. And then....

"I will stay with another Master, that needs my advices. That needs help to understand love and family. I think you understand my choice. And I think you are thanking me right now.

Thank you for being my Master, Jessica.
"

The island isn't there anymore. Disappeared.
