A Man walks alone in the middle of the city, which is destroyed. He wears a basket to hide his face, plays the flute, and carries a sword on his waist. In the cold silence, he walks on, until he finds a person, a white hair man lying down the street. He goes towards him, and checks if his still alive. "I wouldn't dare to touch a Dark Knight if I were you," said a girl who has similar hair color to a person.

The basket man stands and bows to her in gratitude. He shows his hand sign, telling the girl to help the person. She agreed and took him to a safe place. As they stayed there, the person woke up, throwing a punch at the basket man in a quick move. "Woah, easy mister. We're to help you," she said.

"I don't need your help, I need my family," he said.

"What's your name?"

"Akira...Itto,"

Then it hushed. "Akira Itto? Children of the Cinder?" she said.

He stands and immediately goes out and realizes the aftermath of Erra. As she runs to him, He sprints from one place to another. "Akira... wait,"

"Where're my daughters? Where's Lisa?"

"I'm afraid they got abducted by..."

"Abducted?!" Akira said.

"I'm afraid so," she said. "By the way, I'm Mika. Mika Itta, daughter of Takeshi Itta,"

"Takeshi... Itta?"

"You know him?"

"It's not Itta. That's my ancestor's family name."

"Akira-niichan," a girl with, a beautiful braid of white hair, with a floral tattoo on her face, calling his brother after his training.

"What do you got there, Aiko?" Akira said. She takes his hand and lets him touch her tummy. "Your pregnant?"

"My marriage is a success, Akira," she said excitedly. "Thanks to Takeru, I never felt alone again,"

"Likewise, I told you he is nice," Akira said.

Then, Aiko's husband approaches him. "Well?"

"What do you mean 'well'? You make her happy, Takeshi."

Takeru and Akira were like brothers. Since their childhood, they have always hangout each other and take care of each other.

Until the day when Aiko labored her first child, he named his daughter. Then, he disappear with his daughter without a trace, the same day his family and his village got purged and destroyed by Takeru.

Inside the cages where all the hostages got abducted, Amelia and Hinata tried their best to escape silently by picking the lock on the cage lock. "Hurry up, Amelia!! Mama is in trouble," said Hinata.

"Shut the f**k up and please be calm a bit? I'm almost there,"

When there's a stepping sound nearby, both of them stop for a while and pretend to be weak. A legion walks across, and as he saw them, he spits at Amelia's face. Hinata's about to reach her hand on the legion's face, yet it's too far. The legion laughs and scorns both of them. "I'm okay, dear Hinata. C'mon, let's get out of here,"

As the lock opens, they secretly escape, close the cage and lock it back. Then, they're carefully run, without getting found.

"Hinata, how about this," Amelia said. "Both of us will split up, you find mama, while I find the rest,"

After that, both of them went for the search.

Akira stares at the basket man chatting with Mika using sign language. No laugh, just pure silence. "What's wrong with him?" Akira asked.

"Oh, don't worry. He's a Komuso, but he lost his voice since his last battle," she explained.

"A Komuso. (Sign language) What's your name?" Akira said.

"(Sign Language) Satoshi," he said.

"Oh, you know sign language too?" Mika admired Akira.

"It's been a while since I used this in war,"

Akira only used sign language when it comes to battle. He learns almost every language including Latin and his mother-tongue language, Angelic Lingo.

"I have to go now. I need to find my daughters and my wife," Akira said.

"We'll follow you," she said.

"No, this is personal."

"Well, we didn't have jobs so... shall we?" she confidently said. Akira pulls out his gun on his waist and aims at Mika's head. She didn't react to it. She smiles cutely, hoping for him to bring her and her friend.

But to Akira, he saw her like his late sister. Her hair color and the tattoo she have on her face were so identical. He can't bear himself to look at her face. An innocent girl finally joins his company, alongside Komuso. "So, how should we find them?" Mika asked.

"Do what they always do," Akira said. She couldn't understand the meaning he tries to give until Satoshi explains.

He kneels, touches the dirt, and took a grasp of it. Then, he closes his eyes and connects the vision to his daughter, Amelia. The dirt begins to burn, and before he throws it, he told Mika and Satoshi to stick together with him. As he throws them down, they got transferred to the place where Amelia and Hinata got abducted.

"Papa, get down," Amelia said as she found him appeared. Akira hide and luckily they didn't get caught by the legions. She quickly goes after them, and as she arrives, she straight away hugs Akira. "I thought you were dead, papa," she said.

"What happens to your wings?" Akira said as he realized there was blood on her back. She replies with a few teardrops as she can't explain why. Akira caresses her head, calms her down, and lets it be. "Now, let's find our family, and save the others,"

"This is ridiculous work, Brandr. This is Takeru's masterpiece," his assistant said inside the lab.

"She's controlling her second personality. Her Apostle personality," Brandr said. Lisa tied up with both hands and legs while hanging by a pole. He just watches Lisa argue with her other personality inside.

"I won't let you control me, Elyssa. I won't,"

"But, you still can't even be handling it by yourself. Now give me your body!!"

"NO!!"

Brandr laughs so hard after watching Lisa slowly suffer becoming Elyssa. Suddenly, Hinata found her mother, hanging upside down. "Hinata!!" both Elyssa and Lisa said.

"Mama? Are you okay?" Hinata said.

"Oh, she's okay. Your mothers is okay," Brandr said.
