“You know that eating is still important, even if starving brings you despair, right?” Mukuro asked, looking at Kuzuryu. It had been quite a while since the Tragedy began and Junko had already put her plans into action for the killing game. Here, on the outside, Mukuro commanded the remnants of despair along with the other Ultimates who had leadership qualities.
Those included Kuzuryu, Kamukura, Nevermind, and Nidai. Together they led the activities of the remnants, working to bring the world to its bitter end, spreading despair throughout every city, country, and continent. Mukuro was more fit to lead such actions because she was more akin to a normal person rather than a despair.
While Fenrir had beaten a lot of personal feelings out of her, she was still closer to the average person than her peers. She knew what could cause a person to despair.
The Ultimate Despair Command had begun planning the destruction of Japan’s sewer systems. The results were large, hence why it had come into their sights as a potential move.
Streets would be flooded far more often; not only with water, but the years of waste built up from human activity. People could no longer relieve themselves in a bathroom. All waste and trash would accumulate on the sides of roads, or perhaps even in the middle of them. A truly despair-inducing scent would rise from the city into its skies.
However, for such a plan, the remnants would need to be in good shape. It would take hours of placing explosives and makeshift dams in order for the plan to work.
Kuzuryu sat across from her, while she polished her sniper, quite malnourished. She could swear that every bone in his body was visible. Mukuro wondered whether Pekoyama was truly okay with this, mayhaps the sight of her master’s health declining brought her blissful despair?
“Seeing one of my captains under-performing is upsetting,” she commented. Even if she didn’t want to admit it, she’d come to enjoy these people before they met Junko’s wrath. In her heart, she couldn’t let go of the good people they once were. So she showed her sympathy for their situation, even if it made them feel “good”.
