Chapter 42
Summary
As the boat sails forth, Erina looks out to the ocean and notices a bird flying onto the edge of the ship. It had apparently gotten separated from the rest of the flock and begins to cry out in distress. Another bird flies down to keep the lone bird company. Erina becomes emotional and runs over to hug Jonathan. Confused at first, Jonathan asks why she is distressed, but realizes they were merely tears of joy. The two decide to get something to eat and start heading down to the lower decks, but not before Jonathan hits his head on the doorframe.
The two begin eating, and Jonathan encourages Erina to drink some wine, despite her having never drank it before. She shows a bit of discomfort after doing so, but before Jonathan can say anything he spots Wang Chan from across the room and immediately takes after him.
Elsewhere, Father Styx is drinking alcohol and drops his crucifix into a metal grate nearby. He looks inside and, noticing that it connects with the ship's hold, makes his way downstairs. He spots the cross on the same coffin the men were taking into the ship earlier. He takes a closer look at the box and notices that it is unlocked, but is instantly killed when the lock triggers and a gem flies into his head. Wang Chan runs into the room and throws open the coffin, revealing Dio's decapitated head. Jonathan soon arrives and confronts Dio. After a speech about taking over Jonathan's body, Dio releases a Space Ripper beam from his eyes, which tears through Jonathan's hands and straight into his neck.
