A hero's welcome (backdated to after the Balmarian operation)

[herodrawing]

Guys! Guys!

[It didn't take long for Izuru to learn what happened during the Crossgate fight. He's quickly running through Sakihama corridors, trying to find his friends.]

That was amazing. I knew you could do it!

[He steps for a moment, but isn't even short on breath. Where does all this energy come from?]


I was kinda worried that I couldn't go out there and help. But everything turned out fine. Sorry, looks like I still need to learn to trust my friends more.

After all, we're all heroes, right?

Yes, it worked out. Hadn't expected it to go like that either.

[herodrawing]

I knew you could do it Kei. After all, you've wanted the JURIA System not to be the master of you for a long time now, right?

[majestic_keiki]

Yes.

And not just be like those Balmarian clones, doing whatever they're told.

[herodrawing]

I guess you were told what to do again, to use my kind of JURIA System thing...

But that'd never work. Of course you gotta do it your own way.

[majestic_keiki]

Yeah, I guess. Asagi did something entirely different too.

Just how does the JURIA system work? The Wulgaru seemed confused too.

[herodrawing]

It's connected to your state of mind and emotions, but it's mysterious...

[Izuru gasps!]

Could it be... love?!

[majestic_keiki]

Asagi did start dating Eva...

But it still has to have some scientific or magical workings making it function, but not even the designers seem to understand them.

[herodrawing]

No, no, I mean like - love for the whole of humanity. A hero's love!

[Izuru makes wide and nebulous hand gestures while explaining. What is this supposed to convey?]

[majestic_keiki]

Okay... I imagine somebody is trying to work out what's doing it.

[herodrawing]

It's a mystery for the ages. But whatever made it work...

It worked. That's all that matters now.

[majestic_keiki]

Yeah... I just wonder what the answer will turn out to be.
