The Frivolous Men

Lighting a blue light; that is destruction, slumber, rebirth Gespenst Jäger Wandering wounded, you advanced toward a definite rendezvous Gespenst Jäger Ah, your back Bears scars where your wings were plucked off Believe in that small something and grasp it once more Pulsing steel burning red, pain and then wavering Gespenst Jäger Rise to tear to pieces and rip apart any kind of husk Gespenst Jäger Have pride and raise your sword overhead I (You) Your hands (My hands) know peace! Non! That is enough Non! That is hope I will at least (Hold me) protect (Tightly) Your smile! You IDIOT! Your wounds festered and now you have to stay in the hospital even longer?! And all because you went sneaking out! If you have an explanation, let's hear it! Well, you see, I went out to feed the cats No excuses! But Whoa.
But Whoa.
To begin with, you don't have enough comprehension Comprehension of what it means to be a member of State Section 3! Listen up! This is the last time I will come see you in the hospital.
See if I ever visit YOU again! Shallow-Minded Men It looks like I made her mad.
Well, just think about what you did.
The commander was really worried about you.
Corporal I'm going to look for him! What are you just standing there for?! Y-Yes, ma'am! She made this big racket It was all a huge pain.
Right, Martis? A pain, huh? Yeah.
I guess so.
Ah! So you're back, Mr.
Troublesome Patient! Honestly I'm not putting you in a private room ever again! Mr.
Wantz, since you're right next to him, I want you to keep an eye on him for me.
If he leaves, please ring this bell.
I'm counting on you, okay? Yeah Rosetta.
Huh? Please take care of him, okay? He's a bit of a lug, but he's my lovable subordinate.
My, are you his friend? That's perfect! Would you mind collecting his urine for me? After all, it's better to have someone of the same sex do it! Come on.
Let's go, Martis.
Uh, w-wait! He left.
Sorry.
You've been blessed with wonderful co-workers, haven't you? Oh.
Um I'm Wantz.
I work at the briefcase factory.
It's been a week since I entered the hospital, but no one comes to see me.
Still, I guess I'm fortunate enough just to have work.
Once I get this fixed up, I have to work hard and make some money.
Excuse me I'll do it myself.
Oh, really? Sorry to make you do this when your leg's hurt.
There are paper cups by the entrance to the toilet! Oh, excuse me.
No, excuse me.
How are you feeling, Wantz? Chief! I was worried about you.
Oh, you didn't have to come all the way here! No, no.
It's only natural.
Anyway, you seem to be doing well.
Intelligence Division Reference Room The 901 ATT does not exist in our army! It doesn't exist, huh? Truer words were never spoken.
That's why they were called the Invisible 9.
Invisible 9? You're really getting into it, aren't you? Oreldo.
What are you sneaking around and researching? It's got nothing to do with you.
Nothing to do with me, huh? That was pretty cold of you.
It's about the Big Guy, right? Anyone could tell just by seeing your attitude at the hospital.
I like Section 3.
I didn't think much of it at first, but gradually I've come to like it.
But But the corporal's existence could be a threat to Section 3.
That's what I'm researching.
Well? How far have you gotten? I can't say.
This is a PERSONAL matter I'm looking into.
Uh, excuse me for interrupting your work! This guy here, Warrant Officer Martis, is my childhood friend and a very capable man.
That's the kind of guy he is, but back when we were seven, Section 3 again? That's the kind of guy he is, but back when we were seven, when we took a piss break together and he decided to attack an earthworm Oh, you won't believe what happened! That has nothing to do with anything! That's right.
I've got nothing to do with your past.
Or the Big Guy's past, either.
Of course, you've got nothing to do with it either.
I think you should just leave it alone.
Don't go messing around in it to try to protect Section 3.
Quit acting like some lone crusader or something! That's not the kind of people we are.
Me, you, and the Big Guy We all wear the patch of Section 3.
Don't say I've got nothing to do with it.
Talk to me, Martis.
In other words, you don't know much? I can't help it.
It's only been three days.
But I do know for sure that it exists.
Apparently, intel on the front lines and at the top levels was flying around like mad.
"Apparently"? Was that intel coming from the Boss? And where's the Boss now? He's attending a debriefing on the armored vehicle incident from a few days ago.
The "Invisible 9" that appears in no official documents, huh? And the Invisible 9's Oh, Oreldo! What are you doing? And the Invisible 9's Oh, Oreldo! What are you doing? We're admiring the roses in the courtyard.
You're so silly.
Ask me to dinner again, okay? Sure.
Who was that? Mireille from Personnel.
Hmmm.
That's odd.
If someone came from a unit that didn't officially exist, there's no way he'd get through Personnel's examination.
Especially since this place is filled with the entire country's military intel.
Someone put pressure on Personnel? But there's no way to make sure Why are you leaning like that? Leave this to me.
I-I can't, Oreldo.
Everyone will be back soon.
This won't take me long.
B-But I really can't.
There are strict rules about managing Personnel's files.
There's no way I can show them to you.
No one will find out.
B-But Sorry.
Huh? Actually, I don't care about some file.
I just wanted to use a shared secret to bind you closer to me.
But my underhanded ways have caused you trouble I'm a real lowlife, aren't I? Farewell, Mireille.
Oreldo! J-Just finish before everyone gets back, okay? Yeah.
Oreldo's late! I swear You sure took your time! I guess so There's lipstick on your cheek.
But the mission was a success.
When the Big Guy transferred in, there was a push from a certain organization.
The Imperial Science Research center.
The Calplan Organization? Yeah.
Then if we investigate that, we'll find out about the corporal, too.
I don't mind that.
I mean, being peaceful and all that What's wrong? Sorry, Oreldo.
From this point on, I want to hear everything from the corporal.
Me, too.
Let's go to the hospital right now.
At this time of night? What do you need to do at the hospital? Uh, well, you see What do you think you're doing neglecting your work?! Uh, b-b-b-but we were worried about the Big Guy! Uh If someone gets their wounds dirty, sometimes their condition suddenly gets worse at night! What? Well, on that note, we'll be going to the hospital.
I-I said I won't be visiting him! Yeah, that's why we're going by ourselves.
Well then, excuse us.
He's gone again, isn't he? What? You're here! Where's Mr.
Wantz? He hasn't come back.
Not since this afternoon.
This afternoon? Honestly, the patients in this room are such a pain! What's this is in the trashcan? It's a briefcase! Are you here, Big Guy?! He is here What's going on here? If you want to visit him, please do it tomorrow! That's not what I'm here for.
There's someone on the roof! Someone's going to jump? Who in the world is it? Mr.
Wantz! Please! Think this over! You can't go killing yourself! Thank you very much.
But it's all right now.
Mr.
Wantz! Big Guy You'll catch a cold.
Let's go back to our room, Mr.
Wantz! That briefcase Do you know what that is? It's severance pay.
Severance pay? Twenty years.
I was there twenty years! I worked there for twenty years But I take one week's vacation and they fire me! What's more, my severance pay is a single briefcase.
Mr.
Wantz Twenty years.
And do you have any idea how hard I served that company, working from morning till night? I didn't once complain about the low wages.
Yet when I take one week off Just because I took one week off They blame it on the recession! They must be joking! In this recession, how am I supposed to eat with a single briefcase? How am I supposed to eat? How I'm trying my hardest I'm trying my hardest To make this a better world.
I'm trying my hardest, as a part of Section 3! Don't get closer! Don't get any closer.
It's too far I can't save him.
Could I reach him if I ran? Can I run properly? I'm so scared My knees are trembling.
Can't you leave me alone now, neighbor? This has got nothing to do with you.
Yes, it does! I've always worried that if I wear the lantern, I'll go on a killing spree.
But without the lantern, I can't do anything.
I wondered if someone like me, who can do nothing but kill, Could be a part of Section 3.
I wondered if I could fit in.
But I gained a little confidence today.
Because you saw the Warrant Officer and the others as my co-workers.
So I don't want your life to end in the wrong way like this! Well, that was quite a self-centered little speech.
I'm sorry.
To think that someone who just met me today needs me that much Mr.
Wantz! In that case, there might still be a workplace that needs me, too.
Mr.
Wantz! Mr.
Wantz! Big Guy! Warrant Officer! Don't group the two of us together! Ow, ow, ow Put some more power into it, Martis! The corporal's too heavy! You saved us.
Hold on! Hang in there, you two! Warrant Officer! My grip isn't strong enough Let's pull him up in one heave! I don't know if we can! Just do it! Here we go! 3, 2, 1! Hey, Corporal.
Y-Yeah? Sorry for being suspicious of you.
Huh? Never mind! Th-That's a beautiful moon, isn't it? Huh? Yeah Hmph.
Well, look at that.
He seems perfectly fine.
