| Izumi | Let’s get practice started. |
| Tasuku | … |
| Azuma | … |
| Izumi | (The mood here is awful as always. The opening day is just around the corner… This isn’t good.) |
| Tsumugi | I don’t think that practice would go well if we keep things going like this. |
| Izumi | I agree… |
| Tasuku | …*sigh*. Let’s move on. Regardless of how we really feel, we shouldn’t bring it to practice. |
| Azuma | Regardless of how we really feel. |
| Tasuku | What? |
| Azuma | I don’t mind quitting if my being here is detrimental to our reputation. |
| Izumi | Azuma-san――!? |
| Tasuku | Where did that come from? I didn’t say anything like that. |
| Azuma | Either way, it’s not untrue that I sleep with my clients regardless of who they are. And among those people there may have been someone involved with God Seat. |
| Tasuku | Please cut that out. You were the one that doubted me first to begin with. |
| Besides, suddenly saying that you’re quitting… What’s the big idea? It’s the same as when you said you were moving out. You’re too irresponsible. |
| Izumi | Azuma-san has his own circumstances— |
| Azuma | It’s fine, Director. |
| Homare | —Can I have a word? |
| Izumi | Homare-san? |
| Homare | Why don’t you let me sort things out? |
| First, Azuma-san. |
| It seems that you either feel inferior regarding your suspicious job as a sleeping partner, or it could be that you are concerned about how the other members view you for your occupation. [1] |
| Azuma | … |
| Tsumugi | Homare-san, that way of saying things is a bit— |
| Homare | Secondly, Tasuku-kun. |
| It appears as if the fact that you used to be in God Seat bothers you more than we thought. That is also the reason why you did not nominate yourself for the leader position, is it not? |
| You are afraid of being doubted. And that is why, in order to protect yourself, you are being overly aggressive. |
| Tasuku | ―― |
| Homare | And Hisoka-kun. You do not have any memories and so even if you are doubted, you do not have any excuse. I assume that you are keeping quiet because of that – you are afraid of being targeted with suspicion. |
| Hisoka | … |
| Homare | And it appears that Tsumugi-kun has not gotten over the trauma of failing to enter God Seat. |
| That is the reason why he cannot come forward to resolve this conflict assertively as the leader. |
| Tsumugi | … |
| Tasuku | … |
| Izumi | (Everyone got quiet… He may have been right on the mark, but this way of saying things is just…) |
| Azuma | …Sorry, let me take the day off from practice for today. |
| Tasuku | …I’ll do the same. |
| Hisoka | … |
| Tsumugi | …Homare-san. There are things you can and can’t say. |
| Homare | ―― |
| Tsumugi | I’ll go cool off as well. |
| Homare | … |
| Izumi | Homare-san, all the things you said may have been true. But they’re all things that everyone didn’t want to hear. |
| Homare | …I made a mistake again. |
| Izumi | …Again? |
| Homare | I do not understand people’s minds. Just like a broken cyborg. |
