Mr. Tear thinks he's suddenly nauseous and touches Ferdo's back. And he goes to the restroom. He tells the beer Ferdo drank contains a liquid bomb that reacts to sounds, and the bomb will go off when a triggering sentence is read aloud. And he shows billiard ball 5 and tells he's just using the same trick Ferdo used to beat him in the game. Mr. Tear asks it's Balak who's behind this. He tells Mr. Tear is good at acting and reads the triggering sentence. "Once a target, forever a target. The Balak's way." Mr. Tear is killed because of the bomb. He reports to director Balak by network. He tells Edel is killing time running a few errands at here and there. Balak orders return to base.
In God's Lover (7), the Deputy director of Internal Affairs asks his secretary does she find the firearm maker, and she says Korah will be on it himself. The Deputy director of Internal Affairs says he'll tell the Director.
Denma receives a massage from a masseur. In fact, he disguised himself as a masseur. He puts his hands on the Denma's body and reads the memory. And he's embarrassed.
He says the Deputy director of Internal Affairs' secretary who confirms his mission that, he's angry because he was on his way back after completing a mission until she has tricked him into this. He disturbed so hangs up the phone, and curious that who was that woman in Denma's.
In Chapter 2 2. A.E. (8), Yahwah thinks it's a firearm which is strong enough to attack the Transcriptome and Mirai is the manufacturer of the firearm, and just because he didn't inform this to the security management system of the church body, the Directors of Silverquick's station 7 reported him to the Internal Affairs, and as a result, his main body had to go through the most untimely mind map reading, and they must've realized his mind map was way off course from the church simulation and they probably found out that he included Epraimite Quanx on the hunting list even after the Quanx was done analyzed, and that Internal Affairs agent, who was additionally dispatched, managed to read Denma's memories, and not from his consciousness, but through his body somehow, and they must've taken appropriate measures about that forearm manufacturer by now, and from all this information, the first thing they'll expect him to do is to use this weapon that can attack the Transcriptome, and they'll think that he'll leak the information to the resistance within the company, in the advent of a riot by those Quanxs equipped with highly advanced weaponry, he'll have to invoke the Adam's Night again to find his real body, and it's not like he hasn't thought about it, but such a naive plan that will get him tracked down as soon as he escape.
Foreshadowing[]
Skellion and he are of the same skin tone. His skin tone is similar to Balak, but Balak is slightly redder than his skin tone.
In Sixteen (24), he can read the history of objects or space. He sees the things Edel had done, and the things that were done to Edel. In (25), he reads Edel and Balak's past, and in (37), he reads Nell's past. So Skellion knows Edel, Balak, Nell's past. In (11), he can't read the memory of released Edel. So Skellion tells vaguely of Edel's actions.
In (25), he reads Balak's memory and (26), Skellion is suddenly nauseous and touches mohawk's back. And he goes to the restroom.
In (29), Gatsu's right-hand man says to someone that the Deva he served wants a tiramisu cake, so Edel wanted to break out of prison. Someone is him.
There's also limited foreshadow of new English version. The old English version, Balak is calls to him that he's the Baldy (Korean: Bead head), but new English version, he calls Cue-Ball. At this time, Skellion and Ferdo are playing pool.
