The Executioner And Her Way Of Life Vol 4

Pandmonium in the mountains. Hoping to avoid a future where Menou dies trying to save Akari, the girl from Japan runs away with her sworn enemy, Momo. The pair ride the rails to a secluded village in the mountains where they believe they’ll be safe for a few days. Unfortunately, they’re not the only ones who decided to stop off there. Manon and Pandmonium have arrived as well, and they aren’t alone. Akari had hoped keeping away from Menou would be enough to spare the girl she holds dear, but keeping the Executioner alive may require a more drastic course of action...

The Lost Ones are wanderers who come here from a distant world known as "Japan." No one knows how or why they leave their homes. The only thing that is certain is that they bring disaster and calamity. The duty of exterminating them without remorse falls to Menou, a young Executioner. When she meets Akari, it seems like just another job...until she discovers it's impossible to kill this girl! And when Menou begins to search for a way to defeat this immortality, Akari is more than happy to tag along! So begins a journey that will change Menou forever...

Journey to where the fog never lifts… Libelle, a city by the sea. Those who venture into its fog are said never to make it back alive—a murderous phenomenon that’s another of the Four Major Human Errors that has ravaged the world. But for Menou, it just may be the solution she’s looking for. To fulfill her role as Executioner, she needs to find a way to murder Akari, the girl who seems to spring back to life whenever she’s killed. Maybe this time, Menou will be successful in carrying out her duty... but a calculated encounter with Manon, the daughter of Count Libelle, shifts all their fates in a direction that even Akari never could have predicted. Just what will become of the Executioner and her seemingly unkillable target...?

To kill Akari, Menou scours the outer reaches of the West in search of a legendary blade that turns all it touches into salt. There, she stumbles across Sahara, a monk, who has history with the young Executioner and begs her to take her life for reasons unknown. Meanwhile, one of the Four Major Human Errors begins to unfold in the undeveloped regions of the East and slowly inches toward them, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake...

In the port city of Libelle, where one of the Four Major Human Errors is sealed, Menou and company are tasked with finding the origin of the drug monstrine. They each begin their undercover operations, but nothing goes quite according to plan—Menou is attacked by an unexpected foe, Momo is caught in a trap, and Akari goes missing! And when the time comes to face off against their greatest suspect, Manon Libelle of the Fourth, Menou will learn just how terrifying a Human Error truly is...

IT AIN'T EASY BEING A GOOD BROTHER! It's time for the three Imperial princes to meet and argue their way to the throne in the city of merchants, Mealtars. Sounds like a good opportunity for Wein to take a breather since this gathering obviously has nothing to do with him...until Imperial Princess Lowellmina goes out of her way to invite him to Mealtars, too. But Wein's already learned that it's always better to decline her offers. Turns out, things would have gone smoother if he'd just attended, because now he has to deal with a whole new problem: his sister, Falanya, going in his stead!

Chito and Yuuri board a train that runs below the forgotten remains of the streets above and take it to the end of the line. When they finally reach the surface of this new layer of battered city, they discover a mysterious creature that can learn human languages. With a new companion along for the ride, the girls' tour gets a little more lively-but what awaits them is beyond what they could ever imagine!

*sniffle* Yotsuba thinks grown-ups are mean. Daddy plays all kinds of neat games with Yotsuba, but he ALWAYS WINS! Even when Yotsuba TELLS him to be paper in Rock-Paper-Scissors, he doesn't listen! Even then! Yotsuba never, ever wants to be a big meanie grown-up, nuh-uh! But grown-ups get to buy ice cream all by themselves, so...um...maybe it's okay to be a grown-up sometimes?
