This'll bring the value back down, so
the discrepancy with this should...

...Nope, it's nowhere near enough.

Yuri!

...What are you two
doing out here?

Shut up and leave me alone!
Oh, it's you.

Nice to see you too. So,
what kind of experiment
is this, anyway?

...Is something wrong?

No, it's being kept
well under control,
and it's stable.

As annoying as it is to admit,
Dein Nomos and this system of
Alexei's are both pretty amazing.

So then, where's the problem?

The effective area of control is
more limited than I thought.

The control barrier originates at the
barrier blastia. She's stable inside it,
but she can't leave.

I guess Dein Nomos alone couldn't take
the place of all those apatheia.

So long trips are out
of the question?

Also, the barrier blastia's part
of the system. As long as it's
in use, this city is defenseless.

That's why I'm out here trying
to figure out a way for her to
move around freely.

Why can't Estelle just
take Dein Nomos with
her wherever she goes?

It was really only designed to contain
aer that's gone out of control.

I don't think it could actually affect
Estelle in any way.

I guess that's how it
was with Duke, too.

Don't worry. I'll come up
with something, or my
name isn't Rita Mordio.

I won't let Estelle wind up
trapped like that again.

Nobody treats my friend like
just some... thing.

Okay. I'll leave you to it.

Nothing to worry about.
You've got the best genius
under the sun with you.

Yes, I know Rita can help me.

I'll have this ready by tomorrow.
You get yourself to bed.

Okay, okay. Don't push
yourself too hard.
Same to you, Estelle.
