Artist's commentary
The gears of disaster grind where the man cannot see...
The next day, I tried to ask Nazu about that unbelievable scene.
Without hesitating, she said, "It's just sex."
'The way you two behave, I can't imagine you getting together for sex. Is he threatening you somehow?'
Hearing this, she said, "No, we both have feelings for each other," without batting an eyelash.
'Why! Why would he, with you...'
You shouldn't assume that that cozy feeling will last forever.
Nazu's words from that time reappeared in my head. Was this why she told me those things...
'You must end this relationship at once, Nazu. For as long as you are at the temple, you must uphold your position. Do you understand that?'
She snickered when I said that.
"If the monks on the outside can drink alcohol, then we can sleep together. It doesn't matter," she said, heedless of her situation.
That's when I lost control and slapped her. She collapsed, silent and amazed.
'Though my sinful behavior surprises me, you must still separate yourself from him at once! You know it's right.' I said, trying to keep anger from my voice.
She glared at me and said, "Master. Go ahead and say you're upset with me for taking him from you."
'You-You're wrong. That's not true.'
Her answer was cold.
"You don't know, of course. His face lost in pleasure. Having him lift your tail to reveal your bottom. When he loses his shame in the excitement, and turns into a sadistic beast. Pressing you to the ground against your will. At those times my most embarrassing and disgraceful behaviors are exposed to him. Those are the kinds of things that we do for each other, and that is why he has no place for you now!" she said.
'You whore! You've used your body to lead him astray!" I shouted at her. She saw my anger and her eyes grew cold.
"I was always waiting for you to tell him your feelings. But you never did anything. No matter how many chances you got... So, I... No. You're pretending. Give up this stupid show. Now, if you'll excuse me."
After that parting shot, she walked away. I was alone with my pitiful thoughts. I was miserable. Why would he pick Nazu? Why... ?
