>Joseph is still hiding something from us.>A bit ago I asked Sherry to stand watch outside of Joseph's room.>Nothing less from Kate! She's not one to trust people so easily!>Phrasing!>And he didn't come to help when I was attacked by Sophie...*mumble*>Kate-sama is angry.>So she took it badly after all.>What I want is information about Great Grandfather.Chapter 250: Joseph's room

>>291955137*munch munch**clack*>Is this the time to suck on some candy?!>Uuuh!>Hey, are you okay?!>It's entirely too tasty!>Don't worry me for nothing!>Sorry, she did that I reccommended it.>Eh? Ah, relaxation is important too, right!>Oops!>How about you also suck on some?
>>291955151>Sherry-sama saw Joseph coming from beyond the bookshelves, right?*nod*>How does it open?*pow*>I'm sure it works like this!*rattle*>Ah!>It opened!(refer to chapter 92)>It's the same mechanism we saw in the coffee storage room!>Alright, let's go.>Shaun! Don't step in it!>Huh!*stagger*
>>291955161>Sorry, that was stupid.>You did well noticing that. These are probably soot bags from Joseph-sama.>I thought it looked weird for a staircase.>...>Let's look for things which might hold some clues about Great Grandfather.>This is written using difficult words.
>>291955171>It's using antiquated wording.>There's plenty of books that look like hundred-years old history books.>There're old records from Mirror House also mixed in.>I'm great at reading this stuff! Leave it to me!>Then, I'll do what I can! I'll look for other clues!>A family tree...>Ledgers...>Look! This sheaf of paper>are documents about people coming to the House!>There's also information about the third floorers!
>>291955185>So Sophie, Dorothy and Ryan were but villager after all...>And the times when they entered the house is quite far apart.>That means the only one around from the time of the incident who has any connection to Mirror House is Joseph-sama.>So the only reason they got to the third-floorers is that they Unified with a special morph.>We should've thought of Morph ecology and the story of Mirror House as separate things.>Morph (Shadow) ecology>Great Grandfather>Leader of the colony called Shadow House>Special Morphs>Individuals whose nature is to protect the leader. One appears every few decades. Their soot power and physical abilities and other aspects are far above that of many other morphs.>Other Morphs>Working for the colony while following the leader
>>291955201>The third floorers have no connection with Mirror House.>Then, is Great Grandfather>also unconnected?>Here! Personal notes of Joseph-sama...!*flutter*>Information after it turned into Shadows House, eh...>Nothing is written about the Morphs going wild.>There's also random titbits from outside the island.>and about military expansion...>Here! Look!>It's an entry about Great Grandfather!
>>291955210>Great Grandfather uses three Media.>The first medium is>"coffee">which is a drug made from mixing hi soot in with it and roasting it, which brainwashes humans.>His second medium are>"tears">from whose hardened form the "Fragments of Favour" are made, which increase the negative emotions of Morphs and Shadows.
>>291955221>So far these are useful abilities for my plan.>However, only the third medium is troublesome.>"Island">Ah!>Maryrose-sama said she couldn't leave the island due to feeling unwell!>So we know the answer to that now!
>>291955235>Great Grandfather's soot power is>to confine the Shadows to the island!>Isn't that weird?>Joseph-sama said...>Great Grandfather intends to leave the island.>I wanted to avoid more victims no matter the cost.>To expand one's territory one first needs allies ... in other words, I convinced that we need to increase the number of the island inhabitants.
>>291955251>It's the complete other way around!>It was a lie that Grandfather was trying to leave the island.>It was Joseph himself who wanted to leave!
>>291955264>Everyone, there's trouble!*sniff*>Cigar smell....>Oh no! He's already back?!>...>You're bad children.
>>291955277>I prepared soot bags in my room,>... so I guess you saw what was in my hidden room?>You tried showing off Grandfather as the villain>and got close to Kate by pretending to be an ally...
>>291955291>You are trying to>leave the cage that is Shadows House ... and the island itself>and then cross the sea to also control the opposite shores, Joseph!Joseph seems entirely too composed. Was this also part of his keikaku? Find out probably next week.

>>291955122250? I haven't seen anything after 247 posted here. Archive doesn't seem to have anything either.
>>291956839All the 3rd floors are dead.Shadows House have anti-fire sprinklers so Mia suicide burning the house down was most likely in vain.Kate and Anthony are in a talk no jutsu fight because the water is making their soot powes useless.
>>291955310Thanks for the dump.So Joseph is the true true TRUE final boss?
>>291957962Did Edward and Sara make it? I don't care about Mia.
Man, will John fuck Kate?
>>291959331We just don't know yet. I guess her chance of survival would be unification or Sara finally developing her own power to save her.
>>291955310Thanks OP!
>>291955137Which king is that? Edward VII? An earlier monarch perhaps? A fictional one?
>>291955201Dorothy was lighter then.
>>291955210Who is that on the far right of the top left panel?
>>291964375Maryrose, this generation’s special morph who would’ve joined the 3rd floor if she’d been unified according to plan.

The same thing happens with Jadow/Jadou Season (which also means Shadow funnily enough).
>>291964679Oh okay. I thought it looked like her so that makes sense.
I wonder if we're going to get an origin for the morphs or if we'll learn that there are other mystical creatures.
