Vol. F Ch. 3 Ep. 11: The Start of the Story

...The burden of fault lies with me.

The cause and effect of my decisions.

It had to come to this for me to finally realize you were right all along...

Please forgive my impudence, but I need your help.

Sensei.

You won't remember these words, but that doesn't matter.

Even without your memories, you'll probably make the same decision in the same situation...

Because what matters are the choices we make, not the experiences we've lived.

There are choices only you can make.

I've spoken of responsibility before.

I didn't truly understand it then, but now I do.

Adulthood, responsibility, obligation...and the choices you make that extend beyond those ideals.

I even understand their implications.

...

Therefore, Sensei.

...you're the only one I can trust.

Only you

Only you can free us from this twisted, distorted fate...

Please uncover the choices that will lead us

to a new future.

So, Sensei. Please...

Your relationships with all of us...

The precious memories we've built... All those days that we spent together... Please...

Wh-What?!

Error on the multidimensional analysis system...!

The quantum superposition state of Utnapishtim...doesn't match with the Ark!

What?! Did our system break?

N-No... This is...

It's not on our end! The Ark of Atrahasis is what's off!

P-President Rio?!

...!

I-Impossible... Could it be...?

The state of the Ark of Atrahasis has changed?! It deviated from the value we calculated...?!

...It created a new axis that's not within the multidimensionality we exist within.

It's similar to trying to explain 3D to a 2D being. No matter what, they'll never understand it...

S-Seriously...?

Does that mean...calculations that surpass multidimensional analysis have always been possible...? We just...can't understand it?

You mean to say...all our analysis and calculations until now were...

...Everything was futile?
