Chapter 37

Older Sister and Younger Sister is the thirty-seventh chapter of the Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan manga.

Summary
The chapter once again begins in the past, with a young Alice meeting with her friend Yuuri. Yuuri and Alice go walking into the town, and as the weather is rather cold, Alice wraps her scarf around both of them. Alice and Yuuri walk around the town, discussing their current situation, and poor living conditions. A car then passes by Yuuri and Alice, with an old and influential man sitting in it. Seeing Yuuri and Alice, the man notes that street children like them should be cleared out, to improve the image of the town, deciding that rubbish like them will be taken out by rubbish.

Alice receives payment from a man she was working for, though only receiving a partial amount. As she heads back to the chapel where all of the children are staying, Alice finds a bloody piece of cloth nearby, quickly rushing to find who's blood it is. Alice finds a bloodied and beaten Yuuri, who explains that the mob came and kidnapped the other children, while Yuuri was too weak to protect them. Alice attempts to ask other people to help Yuuri, but everyone ignores them, as they are simply worthless children. As Yuuri dies in Alice's arms, she asks her to save the other children. Members of the mob then surround Alice, but they are brutally killed by her, enraged due to the death of her friend. Alice attacks the headquarters of the mob, ripping their bodies apart. When Alice attempts to come to the other children, she notices they are terrified of her, not wanting her to come near them. Alice then leaves, wandering around the city. She comes across a mysterious man, dressed in a black robe. The man claims that Alice killed the mob he was supposed to assassinate, and as reward he presents the severed head of the old man that sent the mob to Alice. The man then tells her his name - Wallenstein, and his affiliation to the terrorist organization Rebellion, wanting Alice to come with him. As she has nothing left here, Alice agrees to come with Wallenstein and join Rebellion, though for a large sum of money. In Rebellion, Alice will be trained by Wallenstein, to become the assassin she is today.

In the present, after Shizuku has gone to sleep, Alice wonders about her current life, and how ahe has started to like her new friends, particularly Shizuku. Realizing that ahe will soon betray them, Alice is torn between her loyalty to Wallenstein, and her love for her friends.
