Uzuki: But, I…… Kei-san, I……
Kei: Uzuki-san, you are the Onikiri-Yaku of the Senba Clan Onikiribe. The one who slays the oni that bring harm to humanity…
Uzuki: And one who will even kill humans for her duty… an oni of the oni slayers…
Kei: ……Yeah.
Kei: So please, kill me.
Kei: Before I become an oni… while I’m still me… so you don’t end up hating me……
Uzuki: Kei-san… but… I can’t……
Kei: Yeah… I guess it ended up just like you said it would. It’s so horrible……
Kei: I’m sorry, Uzuki-san. Can you lend me Ito? Just for a little bit…
Kei: ……Ahaha, I’m so scared. I can understand why there were samurai who couldn’t do it……
Kei: If I could, I wanted to do it as easy and painless as possible…… I’m sorry……
Uzuki: Why are you apologizing……
Kei: Because, I was asking so thoughtlessly. After they become oni, that might be one thing, but you don’t like to kill people, do you? Of course not.
Kei: You’re so kind, Uzuki-san… killing people makes you suffer.
Kei: So I will… I’ll do it myself.
Kei: So, Uzuki-san, my blood will dirty it, but…… will you lend Ito to me?
Uzuki: ……I’ll do it.
Uzuki: I’m sorry, Kei-san. I can’t think of any way to save you.
Kei: Yeah……
Uzuki: So, at least, let’s do it in one stroke.
Kei: ……I’m sorry, Uzuki-san.
It doesn’t hurt.
My sight just drops low suddenly, as my vision grows dark.
At the last moment, what my field of vision shows just barely over the bare earth, is…
Uzuki: ……Kei-san, I can’t untie the bond I tied with you. Not a bond like this.
The crimson-dyed blade of Ito, and…
Uzuki: This Ito… will tie the two of us together.
Red ending: 赤い維斗 – Akai Ito (TN: A play on the title name, the kanji translate as “the red Ito,” Ito being the name of Uzuki’s katana, rather than “the red thread of fate.”)
