Translation: “Ao no Exorcist” Chapter 93 Summary (Spoilers!)
Here is your translation summary for this month. Please forgive any translation or spelling errors, I type this up as I read it. Spoilers ahead, of course!
This Chapter is entitled “The End of the Snow 2″
The chapter starts out with Yukio wondering why his father raised them, then transitions into a flashback of Yukio questioning his father on why their presence was tolerated. Shiro replies “It wasn’t my intent to deceive you. But I can’t tell you ‘right now’” with emphasis on “right now”. Yukio asks when, and Shiro says “one day you’ll understand.”
In the present, Yukio is looking at the computer screen in shock. Someone asks him for the computer back, but Yukio is gone. We find him smashing the computer against a tree just as the order is given for B team to switch. Yukio goes back to shooting demons and thinking “In the end, I didn’t understand the secret of our birth”. He is starting to go a bit crazy shooting things and thinks “The Order of the True Cross and the Illuminati were birds of the same feather, sacrificing people to protect the human world. Getting their priorities wrong is a good thing.” Just then it looks like he gets sprayed with something on accident, and the guy asks him if he’s okay. Yukio picks his gun back up and reloads, shooting another demon and thinking “Also, dad was…!!! Just what is virtue, and what is evil? And I thought the order and my dad were my allies…” Just then, a superior tells him to go home because he’s still a minor and apologizes for having him fight. Yukio tries to protest but the guy tells him that “There are reports that the way you are fighting is dangerous, so go home and get some rest.” As he walks away, he wonders how he will rest. He also thinks “Home…where is that…? I don’t want to go back to the dorm, the order or the monastery.” He sits down and thinks “I even went so far as to point a gun at Suguro-kun and this is the truth I find. I’m tired.” He looks up and sees Shiemi’s shop. “I don’t want to think about anything else. Why am I here?”
He then thinks about two years before, when his father said he would understand one day. “I heard from Shura-san. You asked Shura-san to take care of Rin.” His father tells him not to talk about her, and Yukio says that she told him that Rin was raised to be a weapon. “What do you mean by weapon? What is your goal!!” Yukio asks and leaves. “It was the first time I ran away from home”, and he ends up at Shiemi’s place, and wonders “Why was I there?” Shiemi sees him and asks “What’s wrong? The shop is closed, why don’t you go home? You’re soaked,” and hands him her umbrella. He apologizes, and she says “…don’t you want to go home?” He says that’s not it, he was just getting hot and thought a walk in the rain would be a good idea. “But, it’s a bit absurd at this time of night…” but Shiemi cuts him off and says “You do!? So do I!! I love when it rains!” She says she loves the smell of rain and earth, etc, and says “Here the smell of earth enshrouds the area and my heart starts thumping.” She tells him that her mother scolded her for not using an umbrella because it’s unseemly, and asks him “Does Fujimoto-san not scold you?” Then she says “But you’re always so diligent, so it’s okay if you’re improper sometimes!” He replies “I suppose so…”
In the present, he’s walking in the snow up the stairs when he sees Shiemi. She asks “What’s going on? You’re out so late…” and then asks him if he’s run out of equipment. He tells her no, and she says “that’s right, this is just like the time two years ago.” She asks if he doesn’t want to go home in a jovial way, but then she looks at him and she’s concerned when he says “I don’t want to go home.” She says “I…I see, but it’s cold out here. Let’s go inside.”
She tells him that her mom is on a business trip and offers to make tea. While she’s putting the kettle on, she thinks “Two years ago, I got nervous and rattled on and on.” She remembers Rin saying “I don’t understand Yukio anymore…” She thinks “I might be useless, but I’m different than I was back then!!” She asks him what happened, and he says nothing, and then tells her that he’s tired from the mission. He apologizes for his gloomy mood and she says “It’s okay for you to be improper sometimes. I feel like I’ve said that before, but I still think so now! You’re always trying your hardest.” He starts to lean in towards her and says “I’m weak…” He hugs her, and she tells him that it’s okay. He says “I’m all alone. I worked so hard to be recognized, but…I no longer have a place where I belong. When I realized this, I was alone, and I no longer have a decent family or friends anymore.” Shiemi says “That’s not true…I…I’m your friend! And Rin…he’s worried about you…” Suddenly Yukio shoves her down violently and screams “Who asked you!!” The two of them are shocked by Yukio’s outburst and he runs off. She yells “Wait, Yuki-chan!!” and cries to herself “I really am useless!” As she cries, she thinks “Rin”.
Yukio falls to his knees, and thinks “The discord within me has hurt a kind person,” and he picks up his gun. “I’m weak” he thinks, as he puts the gun up to his head. Out loud, he says “I wasn’t able to become strong”, and thinks “I’m tired” as he shoots. Suddenly his eye sets on fire as he thinks “What’s that…what’s…” and a voice starts laugh at him and says “So weak, you piece of shit, it’s no use trying to kill yourself on your own, idiot”. Yukio screams and thinks “Satan…” Just then, Shima walks up and says “Sensei, your good face is finally finished”.
It then cuts to a news report being show on TV, talking about the ‘fire and blockade’ at Ikebukuro station. They talk to Mephisto, saying that there isn’t an official explanation yet, and while they know about exorcists and the order of the true cross, that they don’t really know what it is or who these people are. Mephisto says “Then shall I myself explain!!”
Rin and Konekomaru are watching from the dorm. Rin says “Wow, Mephisto is on tv” and Konekomaru says “He’s very lively…” Suguro finishes up, saying “That brute master of mine…” and thinks “hurry up and send!!” Rin says “Suguro, if you’re finished, do you want some breakfast?” Sugaro says “Okumura, do you have a minute?” and Rin says “Sure”. Out in the hall, Sugaro says that he’s not sure what he should tell him…”What Okumura-sensei said”. Rin is surprised, and says “What happened!?” But before Sugaro can continue, Shiemi bursts in and shouts “RIN!!” Rin is surprised, and Shiemi says “Yuki-cha…Yuki-chan is..!!” with tears running down her face. Rin looks shocked.
Ao no Exorcist is on hiatus next month.
