[T] Phase.123:Alita's Quest XII
[T] Two fellow travellers wandering about the Badlands. The last stop of their endless journey is...

Page 02-03

[T] Nova's secret laboratory
[T] Granite Inn site

[T] They continue their journey in search for Alita's traces, but...

[F] No use.
[F] It's completely submerged.

Page 04

I thought there could be some clues in this place, but...
there're no traces of people having been here for almost one year...

[F] Professor Ido, did ya remember somethin'?
No...

I remember having escaped from here with Kayna, but I can't recollect things before that.
It's been almost three years since I've left this place...

[F] If ya hit yer head, would yer memories come back!?

Page 05

Ha ha ha, no, I don't think so.
If the “previous me” erased his memories after understanding the structure of the brain chip...the possibilities of restoring them are zero.

[F] I see...

Is Nova dead...
or alive?

Personally,
[I] I think he's alive.

[F] Why!?

[I] It's my intuition...no,
[I] perhaps it's something I wish for...

Page 06

[I] Nova is alive and ran away somewhere.
[I] Then Alita went after him.
[I] That's why she couldn't come back to you, right?

[F] !!
[F] Oooh!!

[F] I didn't thought 'bout that!!
[F] That's what's called a “syllogism”, right?
[F] As expected from a professor!!

[I] If Nova is alive somewhere,
[I] I must make him atone for playing with people's lives...!!

Page 07

[fx ] BOOM!

[F] This goes beyond my capabilities!!

Page 08

[F] Thanks for having run well until now...

[fx] sluuurp
[I] What're we going to do from now on...?

[sign] Raamen
[x] Aaand after the CM, we'll have a report on the second half of the MBGP (Motor Ball Grand Prix)!
[x] Stay tuned on Vector Channel!!

Page 10

[x] The Killing Angel...
[x] returns!!

[fx] blurp

[I] …...
[fx] drip drop
[F] Hoy!! The heck is that!?

[x] It's a TV program we receive from the Scrapyard!!
[x] H-hey, are you friends with that player!?

Page 11

[x] Tonight, in the distant space, will be the beginning of the fierce fighting with the destiny of the scrapyard on the line!!
[x] You can watch the program here, on Vector Channel!

[F] T-this time it's for certain...
[F] That's Alita!!

[F] What're ya doin', Professor Ido!?
[F] We're goin' to the Scrapyard!!

[F] The distant space...eh?

[I] What does it mean, I wonder?
[F] No more than some exaggerated inciting words, right?

Page 12

[F] We'll find out if we go to the Scrapyard.

[I] What kind of...
[I] girl is Alita?

[F] What're ya askin' so suddenly?
[F] Ya met her too, right, Professor Ido?

[I] I was thinking about what of her did make you falling in love...

[F] Uhm, let's see...

Page 15

[I] W-what's that!?
[F] A meteorite!?

[T] After ten minutes...

[F] The heck was that...
[I] Don't tell me that something has really happened in space...!?

[T] The last stop of their journey approaches...!!

Thanks very much! That's quite invigorating to have new chaps to read from time to time, even if the plot is not that interesting to me.

Question: You wrote "the killing angel"
Shouldn't it be the angel of death?

Near the japanese characters ("satsuriku no tenshi", the angel of slaughter/massacre) Kishiro put "kiringu enjeru" as reading, so I went with Killing Angel.
I don't know if that has already appeared in the story and what they chose for the official English edition

Now that you have mentiones, there is a difference: Killing Angel is Alita's name in motorball, while Angel of Death is her name as a tuned agent.
