Vol. 3 Ch. 3 Ep. 21: The Name of Paradise Part 2

I guess it's our turn now.

All set.

Locked and loaded!

Hello, Foreclosure Task Force. I've analyzed the enemies in your area. Sending you the data now.

You did that, Senior Administrator?

I did indeed. It's been a while, hasn't it Okusora Ayane? How have you been?

Well, uh...not bad, I suppose.

Can you all save the class reunion for later?

I don't see the problem! Doesn't it warm your heart to see everyone getting along? ☆

Reinforcements are ready to go on your orders.

All righty, then... Let's do this!

A clash between two separate ETOs... One that has faith in paradise, and the other that denies it.

How interesting.

"Can we prove that anyone has ever reached paradise?"

A paradisaical paradox, yet it demands an answer all the same.

Perhaps the question isn't so flawed as many think. You've chosen to answer that there's no need for evidence.

Rather, your paradise exists simply through the power of faith.

That possibility never occurred to me.

You could then argue that paradise has always existed, here, alongside all of us.

Perhaps that is what you meant.

It's so brazen that it's ridiculous. It doesn't prove anything.

And yet, I'm still conceding the victory to you, Sensei.

Now I understand this story. I was mistaken.

In retrospect, it may have been foolish to challenge an adult in the first place.

Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat is one of the things you do best after all.
