Master and Student
Mob: M… Master, I’m so sorry it took me so long to get here. -He’s breathing hard- Reigen: Oi! Mob, you’re here! -Snaps phone shut- Did you run all the way here?
Y…Yes… I didn’t want to be late. -Still breathing hard-
Reigen notices something.
Reigen: ……………
Mob: Master?
Reigen: Mob…. come a little closer.
Mob: huh?
Reigen: Alright….Alright…. (Caption: Reigen turns around)
Mob: Huh? What are you?
Reigen: Alright, come on up.
Hurry up, or it might look suspicious to passerby.
That leg looks like it hurts to walk on.
Mob: oh
Mob: Master…. I’m sorry, I tripped on a rock.
Reigen: Don’t apologize, This is MY fault for rushing you.
Mob thinks: This is the first time I’ve been carried by someone other than my dad.
Reigen: Anyway, we should go back to the office and get it bandaged. (Caption: It’s pretty close)
Mob: Okay
Reigen: Hey Mob, You don’t cry?
Reigen: When I got hurt when I was little, I’d cry my eyes out because it hurt so much. My mom always got mad at me for that. I’d get scolded. “You’re a boy aren’t you?” But whether you’re a boy or a girl, it still hurts the same, doesn’t it?
Mob: But….. If I don’t hold back my feelings, then I’ll lose control of my psychic powers.
Like…. like that time with Ritsu. Somebody….somebody might get hurt.
Mob: I…. I’m so scared Reigen: Mob
Only after having cried and laughed through these experiences can you become a stronger, more resilient person. So as a kid, you shouldn’t be suppressing yourself like this.
Mob: But…. Reigen: Mob! Who do you think I am? I’m Reigen Arataka, I’m the most powerful psychic the world has ever known!
Reigen: …. It’s fine
I wouldn’t even break a sweat handling something so small. Don’t worry about it!
Mob starts to sniffle
B…Blood.. Wh..When I fell there was blood all over my leg. -Crying- It hurts….. It hurts so much… -Sobbing-
-Sobbing-… Master….-Sobbing- Reigen: ey…ey… you cry like a boy you know.
Reigen: Ah… We’re here. Mob we’re here. Mob?
Huh? He cried himself to sleep?
…….Well, I guess it can’t be helped. I’ll just bandage this for you while you’re asleep. Probably better that way.
Caption: That was the first time that Mob had cried infront of someone what wasn’t his family. Unbelievably, his powers did not explode.
The next day, Reigen was plagued with full body muscle pain Reigen: I don’t believe this….. (Note: The thing on his back is a medicated pain relief bandage) This is one of my top favorite comics. It motivated me to start translating. It’s so good. Original: https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/63144347
