Momonga: Of course.

If someone does ask me where you are, I will be truthful, but I know better than to confine you too harshly.


Asagi:-Nods-

...She worried me almost more than I'd worried about the rest of you, to be honest.

Momonga: As if you could have succeeded.


Asagi: Yeah. But at least I knew what she was going through. And I could conceivably help her, even if it was just to keep her sheets dry. It felt...weird, seeing all these people who I remember as generally amicable just fall apart so fast.

Lisa: Well, there's probably many reasons. I think the main one is, people need to feel like they'e doing something good to be happy with their jobs. Maybe there's some exceptions, but most people need something in addition to money or they won't feel fulfilled. For the first time I can remember, it wasn't seemingly guaranteed that we were doing the right thing. Our given mission, to give an unworthy ruler even more power of the world he governs, was clearly not something any of us were happy about. Then once we decided how we'd approach that issue, we had to worry about what would happen to Suzu's family, and what would happen after that. We weren't the "good guys" anymore. The situation we were in didn't allow us to think in such black and white terms, like we have the luxury of doing when we're fighting rabid monsters in a lonely western town.

It also reminded us of a time I think we'd all like to forget. A time where people were considered lesser just because of who or what they are. It's not like prejudice just vanished after all these years, I'm not saying that at all. But people like Akihiro... to put it bluntly, people like him don't even exist anymore where I come from. It is just an accepted fact that women and men are equals. We are so far past the point where his attitudes would be accepted if they were held today, let alone by a member of the ruling class, that I honestly didn't know how to deal with it. Perhaps others had the same experience that I did.

That's how I'd answer you, at least.

Momonga: You wish.


Asagi: Understandable.

I don't think I've ever felt that kind of thing, considering the circumstances of my own life are highly unusual by your standards. So I suppose I have to really go with what you said, given how everyone did react.

Lisa: You did allude to that. You come from the Netherworld, right? Perhaps it's just a much more brutal place to live, by the standards of the rest of us.

Momonga: You keep making mentions of my body.


Asagi: Well, yeah. I'm not sure if you want to hear it, but thinking back on it, it probably gave me a distorted idea of how people relate to one another...

Momonga: I choose to blame you.


Asagi: Well...I spent most of my time in a little cottage I'd built for myself. I don't really know where I came from, but somehow I was one of the only humans there, so a lot of demons were clamoring for my soul. So after a certain point of being tired of sleeping in caves, I built myself a house and poured about fifty dozen different forms of holy magic around it.

...I think I spent, like, the next few decades hiding in the basement of the cottage reading and playing video games because people kept trying to break in. >.>
