Director: What do you mean, I'm missing and presumed dead-so that means I'm dead?! (1W2 (Continued)

"In other words, the current director was still being continuously vivisected." Ritsuka Fujimaru nodded heavily, then, red-eyed, lashed Alaya hard again.

If something like this was happening, why the fuck didn't you tell me sooner?!

Whether it was for the Lostbelts or Pan-Human History, Humanity's Incineration had to be stopped anyway. If you'd told me, it wasn't like I would've quit!
