Koutatsu: Heh…]

Inu-yasha: !]

2[Inu-yasha: You fucking bastard…]
3[Koutatsu: Uh…] 4[Miroku: Inu-yasha…is actually all right!?
Kagome: But there’s still flames on his body…]
5[Koutatsu: Why aren’t you dead yet…]
6[Inu-yasha: Heh…]

1[Inu-yasha: How can I die in the hands of a common human!!]
2[Koutatsu: Wait! Please spare my life…]

1[Koutatsu: This…]
2[Inu-yasha: The shard of the Shikon Jewel…]
3[Koutatsu: Without this I will have no power of controlling the demons, only a common human!]
4[Inu-yasha: Heh! For blood and organs, you have killed so many people, and you want to beg for mercy?]
5[Koutatu: I am a man without any strength, if I didn’t get a hold of this…]
6[Inu-yasha: …]
7[Inu-yasha: Ch!]

3[Koutatsu: Huah! Huah! Hu…]
5[Inu-yasha: !]
6[Inu-yasha: Hurry and let go…]

Page 180
1[Koutatsu: How can I let go…I still have lots of things I need to…]
2[Koutatsu: do…

(Please sxcuse this translation. In Chinese, you would say "there’s lots of have to do…things" but in English, there’s no way to say that and make it sound right. So the real word that belongs here is "things", not "do".)]
4[Koutatsu: Ah…]

1[Inu-yasha: Shit…
Koutatsu: Help…help me…]
5[Inu-yasha: What an idiot! Really…]

1[Kagome: !]
3[Miroku: Devoured by the ink…
Kagome: Why…
Inu-yasha: It’s blood…]
4[Inu-yasha: This ink was made from human blood and organs…it was attracted by the blood of the artist, and overflowed…]
5[Kagome: Ah…?
(Paper sound effect: sha…)]
6[Kagome: This…the picture on it looks a lot like the princess.]

Page 183
1[Miroku: Idiot! By using such inpure ink, how can one draw such beautiful things?]
3[Ch! I finally found a shard of the Shikon no Tama, and it’s covered with demonic energy. Even if I touch it, there still might be a risk.]
4[Ah!]
5[Kagome: This…who wants it?]
6[Miroku: Ah?]

Page 184
1[Inu-yasha: How can you even mention such a thing?
Kagome: Because Miroku did help us a bit!]
2[Miroku: Kagome-san, you keep it!]
3[Inu-yasha: Eh…
Kagome: Really?
Miroku: What I thought before was correct…]
4[That girl…cleansed the energy from the shard…]
5[Shippo: No one even thought about looking for me!
Kagome: I’m sorry Shippo! Were you scared?]

1[Inu-yasha: Feh! What the hell are you doing?]
2[Miroku: The dead do not know the difference between good and evil. This is Buddha’s compassion.]
3[Inu-yasha: Compassion? That’s why I can’t understand the talk of humans!
Miroku: Inu-yasha…]
4[Miroku: I thought that you would kill the artist for sure, but you didn’t.]
5[Mirouku: This is compassion.]
6[Inu-yasha: Feh! Stop with the crap already!]

2[Kagome: Miroku-sama, would you like to travel with us?
Miroku: All right!]
3[Miroku: Traveling with a pretty girl is definitely more enjoyable.
Kagome: There you go again!
Inu-yasha: Heh!]
4[Miroku: And Inu-yasha…]
5[Miroku: Seems different, almost like a good person…
Kagome: That’s right!]
6[Only that he himself hasn’t realized yet…
Inu-yasha: Huh~~~?]
