第4話: ErnaはKlausの暗殺を試みるが、彼女の呪いは実際には生存者責任感であることが判明する

4

Twenty days prior to the Impossible Mission, Erna takes it upon herself to try and defeat Klaus. She is apparently cursed with bad luck, which causes accidents to happen to people around her and makes her the perfect assassin, though it means she cannot get close to anybody. She meets Klaus in town and attempts to lead him into accidents, but Klaus' skill means he is able to avoid all of them. He then tells Erna that he already knows how her ability works. Erna doesn't actually cause or attract misfortune, but her survivor's guilt over the fire that killed her family has caused her to subconsciously seek out misfortune as a way of punishing herself. Klaus instead praises Erna, pointing out that all the accidents that happened to him would have hurt other people. Klaus and Erna are then captured by kidnappers, though Klaus figures out they were tricked by Lamplight into attacking him. With the ruse exposed, Lamplight takes down the kidnappers and assure Erna that they can handle any misfortune she brings their way. Encouraged, Erna begins to feel more at home with Lamplight.
