he chapter started with Urek getting annoyed by Luslec's escape.
Urek turned to the big vortex or water at his back. He thought Traumerei was completely dead. He wished that he could've been a lightbearer to save Traum.
Fortunately though we saw Gustang save Traum by imprisoning themselves in Richmondt's Barrier ( The Glass Ball thing ). Urek asked Gustang how did he predict V's attack.
Gustang said that the one inside Baam was their former companion so he knew all of his tricks.
Urek noticed Gustang's glass ball to be breaking apart. If this goes on while the water vortex persist, it might not go well. Urek said that Baek Ryun and Yuri told him to be here and that every event that happened so far have been confusing to him. He asked Gustang again about the nature of their old colleague.
Gustang just confirmed the thing. But he said the guy's dead and he wonders how he came back in Baam's body.
Urek asked Gustang what they'll do now or if they'll even continue fighting. Gustang said that it's done and that he'll just do whatever Urek wanted, that is to finish the game.
Cut back to Khun being dumbfounded still about Baam's disappearance...
The game was still on.
Bellerir tried to be slick by secretly snatching Khun's king piece.
Fortunately tho, Endorsi came with a payback clutch by kicking Bellerir's face. She then grabbed Khun and used Bongbong to teleport themselves to grab Rak's rook piece.
The two then continued to run towards the arena. Khun orders Endorsi to use Bongbong again this time to get to the top. But she said that her bongbong's totally tired out already and that was their final jump. Bellerir and Rachel chased them again.
Gustang appeared before Khun and Endorsi majestically while holding Traumerei's unconscious body. Bellerir felt relief and orders Gustang to get the king pieces.
Khun told Gustang not to stop them as he was giving them the favor of Gustang winning the game. At first Khun didn't understand why Gustang was letting Traumerei have the king piece.
So Gustang made a clear declaration that he will play the chess game with Traumerei.
Bellerir was furious hearing that and yapped out the promise they made about taking down the 10 FH.
Gustang said a lot but it's a solid roast. He told Bellerir to shut his mouth up and said that he ultimately lost the game. The rightful winners who will start the chess game for him are Khun and Endorsi.
Khun then agreed to Gustang's request but he has condition. Obviously, Khun said that he'll give the piece in exchange for Baam's freedom and any info about what happened to him.
Gustang said that finding Baam would be harder. But he agreed with the exchange and said that he'll do his best.
Khun hurriedly run towards the arena.
And again, Bellerir cried about Gustang's actions. He said that Gustang didn't even give the mortals the chance to take down the Family Heads. That Gustang was no different to them.
Bellerir gave a solid " Fuck You " to Gustang. Gustang was a bit surprised. Hahahaha
Khun and Endorsi are finally inside the table of the chess game. They laid out the chess positions of the respective pieces in the board. They managed to complete the game within the time limit ( 9:18 mins left ).
[ The Killing The Chess Pieces Arc ], has finally concluded.
Outside the sprout, the soldiers are just spectating what's happening in the arena. Lobadon is watching there with a serious face too.
The chess game already started.
Traumerei woke up. He was sitting on the chess table along with Gustang. Gustang said that he waited a long time ( seems like the chess clock started long ago )
As far as I can tell, Traumerei only has the king piece ( Khun ). Gustang has both the rook piece ( Rak ) and king piece ( Endorsi ).
Traumerei asked what happened. Gustang fills him in about Traumerei being beat up but never said anything about V yet.
Traumerei was hilariously frustrated why he only ended up with the King Piece.
Gustang said " The results came out like that. What do you want me to do? ". Gustang said that's the only piece that survived throughout the recent game.
Traumerei chuckled and then commented...
The situation his chess piece was in, suits him really well.
That is being " alone "
In Gustang's monologue, he commented that Traumerei is prone to loneliness, the thing Traumerei hated so desperately.
