Caska

-G.u….

Gutts

-It’s probably useless to tell you to forget about this..

-It’s already like this

-If you tell me to go now, I’d just leave

-Otherwise I’ll pay you back in a battle field

14

Caska

-Gutts…

-You….

Gutts

-Yes…

Gutts

-It’s ridiculous

-I killed so many……but why?

-Why this….Gambino…thing that I……

(Caska holds Gutts from the back)

16

Gutts

-……..

-That’s enough….it’ll be just like licking each other’s wound.

Caska

-It’s all right, even though it’s indeed only licking each other’s wound

-I have seen everything

-And you brought out my weakness as well

-I think we deserve each other the most

Gutts

-…….

Caska

-You spilt blood for me

-The wound that you took on hundred soldiers still there, right?

17

Caska

-And the wound that I pierced

-It’d be good to lick each other’s wound

-I also want

-A wound that you cause as well.

18

Caska

-“I have changed…”

(Caska’s heart beats hard and fast)

-Within the arms of this man…

-Perhaps I would find my place

-Not only for battle

-I can be the one who gives
