**Path of the Outsider (2)** (いぶんしのゆくえ②, *Ibunshi no Yukue*, ***Path of the Outsider (2)***?) is the second part of the 120th chapter of the *To Your Eternity* manga.

## Summary

Fushi is enjoying a meal when he suddenly asks Yuki for a favor; if he can bring his comrades to live in the house with them. Yuki excitedly asks his grandfather, who allows it, and says Fushi can bring them over anytime.

Fushi resurrects Iddy and his horse. Although confused, the two are very happy to see him. Fushi makes sure that having two extra people in the house is really okay with the family and Yuki reassures him, saying any friend of Fushi’s is a friend of his. Fushi is surprised by this.

Kazumitsu reminds the kids that they have to keep this just between them and that nobody else can know that they have an immortal living in their house. The children agree, worried about the possibility of Fushi being taken away by the government.

The next day, Yuki immediately tells his friends in the Occult Research Club about Fushi. Kazumu, slaps him, telling him not to let these hallucinations cloud his mind. Meanwhile, Hanna reflects in disbelief about the possibility of one of these guys being the one Mizuha likes. Besides Hanna, the only other members of the Occult Research Club are Kazumu, Suzuhiko, and Yuki. Her thoughts are interrupted when a girl from Hanna’s class barges in, reminding her that they have practice for field day. Hanna leaves, reminding the boys to lock up before they leave.

Out on the field, Hanna talks to her friend about how tired she is, she then sees that Mizuha’s class is also practicing. Saki trips Mizuha, injuring her ankle. The girls are wondering what to do, when one of the boys suddenly picks Mizuha up, deciding to carry her to the infirmary. Saki starts to cry, realizing that the boy who picked Mizuha up is Rikuya, the boy she likes. Saki and Funa start fighting over Rikuya, as Hanna fakes a stomach ache and heads to the infirmary.

Hanna meets with Mizuha in the infirmary and explains that she saw Mizuha fall and got worried. Hanna, somewhat awkwardly, tells Mizuha that if something is bothering her or if something bad ever happens, she’ll do whatever she can to help; so Mizuha can just talk to her anytime. She also tells Mizuha that she considers her a friend. A complicated emotion crosses Mizuha’s face when suddenly, she asks Hanna if she would cry for her if she died, while pressing her against a wall. Hanna, caught off guard by the question, hesitantly says yes but is interrupted by Mizuha, apologizing for the strange question.

As Mizuha leaves, she apologizes for putting Hanna on the spot and thanks her for coming to check on her. Hanna asks if she is going to wait for the nurse and that her foot must hurt. But Mizuha begins to jog, saying it’s fine and that she’s leaving early.

As Mizuha is walking home, she hears someone ask her if her ankle hurts. She looks up and sees Fushi who suggests she get her ankle looked at.
