I'm going to skip over things a little bit and jump back to where Kyle declares he will "save" his sister. Unfortunately after this page (198) ends with that, we have to skip two pages which also skips over Ney's "transformation" scene (meaning we get no new info on that). Welp, here's what we got on page 201 onward:


 * Apparently Kyle and Ney enter a battle right away and he's able to manage keeping her from stabbing him with the tiny knife (which frustrates her)


 * Apparently they suddenly stop and there's a silent staring at each other in between.


 * Ney apparently starts circling around him, all signs of sanity gone from his face. Ney's looking for an opening while Kyle just keeps reorienting himself so he doesn't lose sight of her.


 * Ney gets impatient and sudenly attacks and he narrowly dodges it.


 * Kyle strikes back at her face and I think Ney knees him to the belly, undaunted; they distance themselves again, blood flowing from Ney's lips.


 * Combined with the Queen Dowager's blood, Ney's face was "bright red again"; matching the color of her dress, her whole body is stained with blood.


 * Kyle's noticing he's got a crack at the base of his sword and that Ney's outperforming him in this fight.


 * I cannot win in this state-. When impatience began to sprout in mind mind, suddenly-a voice sounded in my head.


 * Leave it. Leave it all to me.


 * Kyle recognizes the voice from when he was possessed, saying it was similar (but not the same); I believe feels disgust hearing it again in his mind.


 * Heheh, how awful. Did you forget me?


 * Kyle determines it heard from the mirror (now lying on the floor) that Queen Dowager Prim had.


 * (Oh, is that so? I remember you)


 * He says the owner of the voice is the demon, the incarnation of Lust.


 * Leave it. Leave it all to me.


 * Kyle agreed that if he did borrow its power, he might be able to compete with Ney (inner narration). But


 * Kyle clenches the shell necklace on his chest and says: (I refuse!); he inner narrates something about sins not being forgiven when its too late but that he cannot afford to accept it (the demon) or whatever.


 * ..... Boring. You have a really boring heart/soul/mind. As usual......


 * Kyle no longer hears or feels the voice; apparently this was all in the span of a few seconds "or else Ney would have penetrated my chest long ago."


 * I don't know waht's so funny, but Ney was smiling.


 * "Oh........ My stomach's empty."


 * Kyle's trying to dodge Ney now instead of fighting back.


 * "But I also don't want to eat all that grotesque stuff. But it's useless if I have to eat. Because--" (I may have butchered this so forgive me)


 * Ney continued talking in that child-like wording. In the mean time, she kept swinging her knife and didn't stop.


 * -if I leave anything, I'll be scolded" (May have butchered this too but it's 「残したら、怒られちゃうもの」, ie the same lines from EFEC's original PV)


 * The barrage of knife swings/stabs was becoming increasingly intense. Kyle makes an offensive and swings his broadsword down on Ney. But, when the blows were exchanged (or maybe Ney actually got hit with it?), the sword just broke at it's base.


 * Nothing more could be done, seems like Ney's shoulder rammed into Kyle or something (he ended up keeling over).


 * "Now, it's over!"


 * Ney's apparently straddling Kyle ("horseback riding" is the term I believe), and swung down the knife on his chest.


 * Images of fresh blood crushing from his chest comes to his mind. But, that's now how it played out.

And we lose pages 205 and 206, which jumps us all the way to 207. WONDERFUL.


 * "Resistance is futile....."


 * Ney was glaring at him. Though he saw her eyes were full of murderous intentions, she saw something in hand that made her go wide-eyed.


 * "That's......"


 * The sheath of the sword was just a decoy. The real purpose was to take this (rocket glove) out. Chartette had entrusted her secret weapon to (him?).


 * Made by the hands of Chartette's father, it's am improved version with its output upped several times. When you press the switch on the inside cover on the back of the hand, it becomes wrapped in light.


 * "It's a message from your former colleague. Take this, Ney."


 * "Not sure what she says here, I assume something like "Huh!?" (なっ/つ)


 * The rocket glove fires straight into Ney's stomach in a dazzling light; at that close range, she flies and hits the ceiling and crashed.


 * Her abdominal muscles were a bit burned; the entire clothing around the stomach was plainly burned out.


 * Kyle apparently thinks that was more intense than he expected; then recalls that Elluka had apparently carved a character into the glove the day before they left Lioness (town).


 * (..... Perhaps it's because of that)


 * Germaine runs up and supports Kyle in finally standing up.


 * "You alright, Kyle?"


 * "Yeah, somehow..... [something], your safe as well."


 * "The Dead Soldiers sudenly went back to being corpses. Thanks to the army, (we've) reached the courtyard somehow......"


 * Albeit incomplete, because Ney focused the Glass of Conchita's magic power on herself, the magic power of the dead soldiers was interrupted, for whatever reason.


 * Kyle checks Ney's pulse and feels it, assuming she's just unconscious.


 * "Germaine, let me borrow your sword."


 * "What're going to do?"


 * End this here and stab her." (rough but that's that)


 * Germaine shakes her head and tells him No/I refuse and Kyle says he asks/orders her to, if he can't settle the mismanagement of the Marlon family with his own hands.


 * Germaine looks around and her face shows a little surprise when she sees Prim's corpse and then immediately went back to a calm expression when she replied.


 * While I don't know the circumstances, if you try to kill a non-resisting person, it won't be overlooked."


 * Germaine released his body and embraced Ney instead.


 * "I'll take this child home. Are you--"


 * At that time, some Marlon army soldiers came into the room out of breath.


 * "Your highness! You're safe!!"


 * Germaine smiled and said "You'd better support them?" (Or maybe "They'd better support you?") before she left the room.


 * Kyle began picking up the broken pieces of shell scattered on the floor.


 * "Michaela...... I was also saved by you."


 * The soldiers were petrified by the dead Queen Dowager sitting in the chair before them. He approached them adn they all have a uniformally upset look in their eyes.


 * "King Kyle....... what in the world is this......"


 * Kyle came up with a bogus story. The Dowager Queen was killed by the mage manipulating the dead soldiers. When he rushed in, it was already too late. The Espionage Task Force had been manipulated by that mage. And at the last moment, the mage had escaped.


 * That doesn't mean Ney won't be punished; but if Ney's misdeeds went public and that she was collaborating with Prim, then those two could cause problems with the Marlon family's control and cause confusion within the country.


 * It's not whitewash what Kyle's done but to what he has to as King.

"Mother's corpse.......... Let me carry it up to Marlon Castle. Then I'll take this. Mother's important relics." (at least I am pretty sure he's offering to carry it)


 * Lying at Prim's feet are the mirror and doll that Kyle picks up and then leaves the room with it (and Prim's corpse). While going down the stair, he looks out at the sky through the bars of the window. Day is apparently breaking through the clouds. The rain stopped.
