The story from the first chapter continues starting from around page 21. After that, Houshou kept getting snatched by Nagato to have this and that done to her... In the last chapter, Houshou sarcastically told Nagato: "Light carriers can't handle this type of manual labor." Many things actually happened around then. I'll explore them in the final chapter. This story was originally supposed to be only two chapters long, now it's dragged into three chapters. The more I drew, the more things kept coming up; I don't even know how to best wrap it up. There probably will be a good ending at the end. But it'll probably be a very helpless ending.

And so be it...
