-------Meanwhile------
Amato was back again in his unusual room. It was as if he had a separate world for himself. He did not like to stay here for the atmosphere of this world. The sky was Grey, foggy and cloud instead of being sunny. The roads and houses were steep, dark and silent while in reality, it used to be really noisy. And yet his room looks dull and dark just like the last time.
He could walk around the house and there he found no one, not even Mechabot and his parents. But strange, Ummi would always stay back at home and Mechabot would always stay by his side, which made this place more hateful for him. He went into the kitchen and looked there as well, and he found nothing. Then when he came outside, he saw Reverse sitting on a sofa, Amato was sure that he didn’t see him while going down the stairs.
Reverse: It looks like your friends are much smarter than I, aren’t they?
Amato: What do you mean smarter? What did they do now!?
Reverse: Hey. Hey! I didn’t say anything and I’m not going to kill them. Yet.
Amato: Yet?
Reverse: Huh…. Remember we made a deal? As long as you don’t tell them that you are possessed, they’d be fine?
Amato: I’m starting to think that you have targeted someone to kill already, didn’t you?
Reverse: (laughs menacingly) I’m not an agent to target someone. I’m a demon. I don’t mind killing anyone.
Amato: Then what are you up to?
Reverse: Ha… its been a while since I had caused up a mess. I’m thinking to do something very interesting.
Amato: Like causing a disaster?
Reverse: Aye! You got it right for the first time. You’re not bad after all. But a disaster for you and your friends to be specific.
Amato: Why us? We haven’t done anything wrong!
Reverse: That is what I wanted to say, y’all had done nothing wrong! Everything is right with you guys.
Why are you kids living in a selfishness and bad traits world with good traits?

Amato remained silent. Because what reverse was talking was true. The world now has become selfish with each other. Very selfish. And also, it is hard to find out is who is better to trust than a traitor. No one truly cares about anyone, and it can be your parents sometimes. They may care everything about you, but they are selfish to act as well because you are one part of the family not the other.

Amato: But that doesn’t mean they need to be killed.
Reverse: Why not? You all are supposed to be good with each other and be together but its all opposite.
Amato: Like how? They haven’t done anything.
Reverse: If your friends or maybe a bully becomes happy for some reason, would you be happy for them?
Amato: I will always be happy.
Reverse: You are different as said already. But 90% would not be happy and yet they think that this luck should have come for them. No one is not being happy by watching other’s happiness.
Amato: I don’t get it! Are you a good or bad demon?
Reverse: That depends on what you think, Amato.
Amato: I mean you are right, but you can’t kill them just because they are selfish and greedy! But instead, you could teach them a lesson!
Reverse: (sighs) Amato, I know what you mean. But Selfishness and greediness are like a disease. And I hate them being infected with it. I may not know any other way other than ending them.

Amato was surprised. Reverse was gentle now. But why had the book called him a ruthless demon? This demon was being right. Unlike shadow bot. What was so unique with this spirit?

Amato: I-I still don’t agree with you!
Reverse: (starts to get aggressive) Who said you are agreeing with me!? Just go away!

And then Reverse disappeared. But did not leave a scratch on Amato this time. Amato was left alone. He then started to think again.
(Was the opinion about reverse in the book wrong? Why was he suddenly like this? Also, he said that this world was made according to his wishes.)
Then Amato decided to walk around the neighborhood to check out what reverse wanted it look like.
When he further walked on the roads, he saw two kids who were not real but were looking like an illusion were helping out from each other. Then more and more good traits along the way. One helping the poor and treating them equally and even the families think others as their family.
But Amato didn’t see anything like killing and bloody things. Everything was so new as the humanity was coming up with good traits. Then he saw Reverse swinging in the nearest park. Reverse might look like an aggressive demon but still has child-like manners in him.
All his wishes were a good will, but the consequence would be killing them right away. But wait, if this world has good traits, then why was the weather so full of sadness? Amato didn’t know any answer for this. “You’ve seen enough.”
When Amato heard reverse talk like that, he turned to see reverse who moved his hand to take him out of this world.
The moment he snapped his fingers, Amato’s eyes shot open. He was awake and he was in the real world.

When he looks around him, it appears to be a new day. And his injuries have been cured a bit and he turns his head slightly to right to notice Mara dozed off in her wheelchair just like that. He didn’t seem to notice his mom around.

Amato: Hey, Mara. Get up!
Mara: Huh!? Y-you’re awake?
Amato: Yes, and have you been here all night?
Mara: Not only me, your mom as well. Are you okay? How do you feel now?
Amato: Much better. Where is she?
Mara: Oh? She had some small things to do so, she left and told that she would come back around 3 hours or something. I don’t know when she left.
Amato: (Since my mom isn’t around, it’s a perfect time to ask Mara about that reverse spirit.)
Mara: What are you thinking about?
Amato: About that book…. Why does it say that all the 3 reverses were ruthless demons?
Mara: Oh…. Yes! Well, whatever it said that they were ruthless because they killed a lot of living beings didn’t, they?
Amato: I mean, all demons can’t be bad right? They must have some intentions behind them.
Mara: Are you trying to say that these reverse are accused of being bad?
Amato: Yeah, maybe. Could you try to find out?
Mara: Sure, but-
Amato: Please, don’t ask me anything now! I’ll tell you later. Now answer this, if you know.
Mara: Y-Yeah?
Amato: You know… if the world created by dreams is by subconsciousness, right?
Mara: Yes. It is. Well, most of the times.
Amato: Will it be created on the things that you mostly wish for or from the personalities, right?
Mara: I heard that it does, so I might say yes.
Amato: Then what do you think if you saw something like you know, A happy neighborhood and a dull weather that shows sadness?
Mara: I’d think that you are having two emotions at the same time or-
Amato: Or what?
Mara: It can be based on the mix of two different people. That could only work for people who have dual personalities.
Amato: Two different people? I’m not sure, anyway can you tell me about them if you find out?
Mara: Amato? Is this really you?
Amato: Yeah, it is me! Why you ask?
Mara: Because put your head into these kinds of topics. Especially the thing is that you never interrogate.
Amato: Mara….(Sighs) Fine…. Y-
Ummi: Amato, dear, how do you feel now?
Amato: M-Mom!? I-I feel fine.

Amato notices a satisfied look in her face and Mara looks up at her.
Amato: Mom? Why are you happy? Can I know what it is?
Ummi: You going out of here tomorrow. They said that you are perfectly fine and are recovering fast.
Amato: Thank god! I can finally get out of here!
Mara: That’s really great!

Mara says that and leaves the spot leaving Ummi and Amato rejoice together. It all had happened like an accident. But it had brought some change in Amato. But anyways, if she try to answer his questions, she might find something in return.
When Mara was going on the footpath near the road making sure that she was going the right way, she suddenly saw Pian and Mechabot Running fast towards her, Pian didn’t seem to notice her and goes her way because his head was turned to Mechabot, they seem to be talking.
Mara: Pian! Look out!
Mechabot: Huh!? Woah, Woah, Woah! Pian!
Pian: Huh!?

It was too late Pian had already crashed into Mara. He fell aside while pushing off the wheelchair which made Mara jerk up from her wheelchair and fall down. Pian got up and helped Mara get up and sit down into her wheelchair.

Pian: I'm so sorry, Mara!
Mara: It's okay. You look tensed. What happened??
Pian: We've got something to show around the area where the fight happened.
Mara: huh?
