Even when chapter 67 is over, Dai still wishes that he could be with Goris. He remembers that the gift that Goris left for him was kept in a drawer with his soul. He wonders where the gift came from, and wonders if he could have gotten it in person. When he finally sees Goris, he is happy to see him. He says that he has been waiting for him for a long time, and that now he has returned. He promises that he will always be at his side, and he promises to study alchemy, prepare meals, and enjoy his time with him. When the teacher asks him if he is leaving, he tells him that he is, in fact, dead. He tells the teacher that he just left an "afterimage" of himself in the room, and the teacher is lying to him.
