Chapter Fifty Five of the Witch Hat Atelier manga series.
Summary[edit | edit source]
Galga and Atwert are spending time together at the festival, but Galga doesn't focus on having fun, but on a song he's hearing being played, that rings a bell. He figures it was becaus he recognized Dagda's voice and goes to investigate, promising his lover he'll be back soon.
Meanwhile, Coco and Tartah were listening to Dagda's song, distracted by having noticed the sigil on his exposed chest. The man notices their trouble expressions, assuming they did not like the music, and the two children nervously tell him it was not the music but his tatoo. Dagda explains he doesn't know where it's from, that he just woke up with it in town, and in fact, knows little of what he was doing here at all. He only remembers his concern for Custas. Seeing his confusion, the children piece together he is under the effect of a Counterclock spell.
They try to warn the man of the danger he's in, and are cut short by Galga suddenly ambushing them, jumping from above to try and strike Dagda. Coco recognizes Galga from the Staircase River incident. He continues to attack Dagda, who is trying to protect the children, drawing his sword against the Knight. Much to Dagda's confusion, he calls him out as a Brimmed Cap, thinking he's taking the children as hostages. Coco and Tartah push Dagda to run away, while he still does not understand why he's being attacked.
Galga continues to pursue the trio. After seizing Dagda's harp with a spell, he realizes it's not a weapon like he initially thought. Dagda's spell expires, and he collapses from his old wounds in front of Galga and the children. Custas jumps from above to attack Galga to prevent him from approaching Dagda, knocking the Knight out, who just has the time to recognize him as the wounded boy from the river. Coco and Tartah watch as he redraws the spell on Dagda's chest in panic, and Coco explains to Tartah what Qifrey told her about how this magic works and what it entails for Dagda - him having repeated his dying moments this way since the day he and Custas left Kalhn.
