As Coe warned, it was a dangerous area from up there. I wonder if Chun-Li looks like nothing different from below. Good weather. But it's freezing in my body... If I stay here for five minutes, I'll freeze to death. Maybe it's better if there's just no wind...

And I still can't breathe. Does this mean the air is thin...

I've never even climbed Mount Fuji in my previous life. This breathlessness will be my first experience. But don't hurry. It's a straight line of alpine disease if you disturb your breathing. Keep a constant breath in no hurry and you just have to climb.

Ko seems fine, but Kamui looks a little tight. Well, in this case, I envy the fact that it's not cold. You told me you weren't really cold at all, but you were a little cold being us.

Ko's not here. Where have you been...

Still, you can't stop.

"Puypuy."

It's Ko! Did you come down from above?

"Puypuy."

Almost!? Seriously!

"Alec! Almost! Good luck!"

"Yes! You come this far and you lose!

It's too cold for my body to move. The muscles of the arms are the limit. But still, we have to climb. You can't expose yourself in front of Alec. If you don't have a grip, you can insert your arm into the gap in the trunk. I don't even have a finger! You just have to force yourself to climb.

"Alec! Almost there! You can go!"

"Yes! I'm coming! Never!"

"Puypuy."

"Gawgaw!"

Does Kamui suck too...... do you have trouble breathing?

"Almost there! Almost there!

"Yes!"

"Gawgaw!"

"Puypuy."

Ko says you're almost there, too. Damn, my breath hurts...... I can't think of anything...... but my hands move, my fingers didn't... I can climb...

"Alek!"

"Curse!"

"Kamui! Are you okay!

"Gawgaw!"

"Coe! How much longer?

"Puypuy."

A little later...

"Curse... I'm sorry... my hand, no... my body... won't move..."

"Wait! 'Cause I'm going!"

If your body doesn't move in here, you're just gonna fall! Definitely something to drop!

"Stop... go ahead..."

"What are you talking about! There's no way you can leave Alec!

"Stop! I don't want to be Curse's foot wrapper! I'd be happy to fall off as much as I'd be a load of curse!

"If Alec's gonna fall, I'm gonna fall! Plus, if you forget your promise, you'll be in trouble! Contract magic is on the line!

Yes. Alec has contract magic to live longer than I do for a day. I mean, you shouldn't be able to fall on your own will.

"Oh yeah... sorry..."

"You got it. I will never let you die before me. [M] My contract magic is absolute.

"Yeah... I love you, Curse..."

Well... I just have to decide to be ready too...

I'll do it...

"Alec, tie this to your left wrist.

"Ca, Curse this!?

Underneath the sacred coat, I took it off. I'm flutin 'in the extreme cold right now. Tie the left hem of your trousers to Alec and I'll bite the right hem.

Alec also thought about falling because I was sloppy. I can't believe you let Alec think about that... pity...

Just a little later!

I don't mind if all my teeth fall out!

You'll never open this mouth!

Alec to the top...

"Curse! Don't push me!

I'm sorry, but I can't reply. I'm not Isop's crow. Well, Alec didn't mean to either.

Still... I have a limit...

"Puy, puy!"

Come on!

Coe!

Ko wrapped his tail around my right wrist, and he's supporting me. That's not all! He's trying to pull me up! With such a thin body...

"Purpuy!"

Hang in there!? I know. You're almost there, aren't you?

What's almost there, Ko...

It's been an hour since...

But... here we are...

We're here...
