風隠と疾風の八咫烏連盟条約機構（この神殿を犯すヤツは許さない）たちの出会い(英語版)

Rehabilitation Zero Machine

In the dark room, the computer screen was glowing pale blue. The man's face was filled with anger, and his fingers continued to tap on the keyboard.

"Why did you make something like this..."

Reich's work was streaming on his feed, and many people were leaving likes of praise. Every time he saw it, dark emotions swirled inside the man.

"This is rubbish... why is someone like this so highly rated..."

He opened Reich's work and glared at it for a while.

"I'm supposed to be better than you..."

Jealousy and irritation mixed together, and his fingers pounded furiously on the keyboard.

"Why did you do this, Reich? Are you only capable of making boring, shitty works? No one would be happy to see something like this."

He pressed the enter key hard and clicked the post button. When the comments appeared on the screen, he finally exhaled as if satisfied.

"Serves you right..."

However, the emptiness deep in his chest did not go away. [Reich's Rage]

Afterwards, Reich saw the post.

"...Again?"

He sighed and stared at the anti-comments, which he didn't know how many times before.

"This guy... he went out of his way to come and see my work, only to complain and then go home?"

He was so angry that his fingers trembled.

"He doesn't know anything...!"

Reich's eyes were filled with flames of rage. His anger boiled over at the way they looked down on his work and mocked his efforts.

"Do you know how much time I spent on this...!"

The sound of someone banging on the desk echoed through the room.

"I didn't make this carelessly...! I put all my heart into this work and put all my effort into it...!"

His breathing became heavy as the frustration and anger tightened in his chest.

"Don't mess with me...! I'm not going to lose to someone like that...!"

Reich's fans left kind words in the comments section of the screen. However, the sharp words that were mixed in with the words were like knives and deeply hurt his heart.

"You don't know anything... Don't just assume...!"

Reich clenched his fist and took a deep breath. Then, as if to invigorate himself, he muttered.

"I believe in my work. That's why... I won't lose to someone like this."

[The weight of words]

A few days later, the man was sitting in front of Nanaka (Light).

"What did you do?"

Nanaka's low, cold voice echoed. The man answered while looking away.

"...It's just criticism, isn't it? What's wrong with that?"

"Do you really think that?"

Nanaka's eyes were sharp.

"Your words aren't just criticism. They're just slander."

The man bit his lip.

"But... Reich's work...!"

"You just used Reich as an outlet for your emotions."

The man was speechless in response to Nanaka's words.

"If you know what you did, apologize."

[Apology on Twitter]

The man opens Twitter and types with trembling fingers.

"Reich, I've said horrible things up until now. I'm truly sorry. I was jealous, frustrated, and hurt you. If my words hurt anyone, I'm sorry too. I'll never do this again."

The moment he presses the post button, he feels a tightness in his chest.

"...I really apologized..."

Staring at the smartphone screen, tears suddenly spill.

[A man's rehabilitation]

After that, Nanaka looks at the man and says quietly.

"Now's the real thing."

"Huh?"

"Just because I apologized doesn't mean it's over. What's important is what I do from now on."

The man is confused, but ponders Nanaka's words.

"There's still something you can do. Instead of hurting someone, support someone."

The man nodded slightly at Shichika's words.

"... Can I change?"

"If you're willing to change, then choose a way of life that you will never regret."

The man wiped away his tears and laughed softly.

"Thank you... I will never make the same mistake again."

Shichika smiled and looked up at the sky.

"Well, that's fine."

Those words resonated deeply in the man's heart.

The man called himself "Ink." And he became the one who would lead the Yatagarasu together with Shichika and Reich.
