## Chapter Chronology

**zora, Part 2** is the second part of the thirty-third chapter of the manga *Choujin X.*

## Summary

Ely does not react well to the unexpected change of landscape but Zora reveals that her goal is to inherit her powers to the "Beast" i.e. Tokio. When asked to explain again why this is necessary, the woman projects a new vision: that of a monstrous figure, a Choujin who has entered a state of Chaos and lost control and who will destroy Yamato, killing anyone and leaving locust carriers of pestilence to breed on their bodies. The "Dark Calamity".

When Ely continues to be skeptical, believing the vision to be only a dream, Zora explains how in June 1923 she was just a young nun who was traveling through Nanasu to console the spirits of the war dead. One day she had a dream of a monstrous giant and shortly thereafter watched Queem, the War Choujin, slaughter her procession.

Sora begged the leaders of her faith to change their tack and react against Guelta but they valued the order above all else and refused to listen to her. That day the girl was left alone among the corpses and was resurrected as a Choujin. From that day she began to use her powers and visions to fight the war that crossed her country. Her prophecies are not dreams but a specter of a future that could happen.

To answer Azuma's further questions, the woman explains that another person appeared in Yamato with the power to have predictions. she could predict the future more accurately than Sora and many Choujins started following her but their most important visions still aligned.
However this person did not see the "Black Calamity". This difference created discord in the nascent Yamato Mori and Sora's faction ended up being expelled.The woman ended up in the Omega Tower and was branded a witch, thus losing the power to stop the calamity over the years.

Until, one day she had a new vision, of a "beast" with her "mark" and "wings" and that this Choujin would be able to stop the calamity. This became her final mission, to impart the mark on the beast and stop the destruction.

After Zora concludes his explanation Azuma wonders if it is Tokyo that should take the brand and the woman explains how her vision is similar to a puzzle in which all the pieces must fit together to complete it. He also explains that an "iron piece" would not fit in that place.
After reflecting on having been referred to with that title, Azuma urges Tokyo to accept Zora's request as he believes her.

Ely reacts angrily to this, stating that they can't believe a woman kidnapped them like that but Azuma suddenly claims that he had the same vision of Yamato in ruins. Asking Tokio if he too had a similar vision, which would confirm Zora's words.
Tokio is paralyzed thinking about the dream in which Azuma blamed him for Yamato's destruction, but when Zora is about to start branding him Ely launches a powerful fire shot towards the woman. However this sweeps the smoke thanks to a huge hand that comes out of her body, clearly annoyed.

Azuma's doubtTokio's doubtEly's doubt
Ely replies that the bodies he saw in the hall had the same mark as Zora's and assumes that the power was dangerous to those who obtained it.
Zora explains that the mark is the source of her powers and that a Choujin or normal human couldn't stand it but that she kept transferring it to both of them in hopes of bringing forth the chosen beast.

Ely loses her temper at the fact that the woman has no qualms about killing just for a small chance.
Tokio interrupts the conversation abruptly, asking sheepishly if they can go home, think about it and come back later with an answer.

As the boys argue, Zora realizes she has no choice but to forcefully transmit her powers and erases the mindscape to bring everyone back to reality. The creature of the Tower awakens, communicating to Noh Mask that they have finished talking and can kill Tokio's friends.
