Chapter 143.2

Binding Earth (2) (むすぶつち②, Musubutsu Chi) is the second part of the 143rd chapter of the To Your Eternity manga.

Summary
Fushi transforms into Iddy's brother to read Yuki's pot. Fushi sees an image of Yuki at Machu Picchu, that Yuki tells him:, "if you're seeing this image... it means I made the pot right."

Seeing as Fushi is perplexed by his creation, Yuki explains that he created the pot because he felt bad for Iddy who couldn't communicate with everyone else. Her pot also intrigued him because of its occult-like nature.

One day, Yuki approaches Iddy and borrows her pot and makes a replicate using dirt and water. He presents his pot to her and shows her his favorite food. Iddy is shocked and runs away.

Later, Yuki is amazed to see that Gugu whipped up some fried chicken for them. Yuki exclaims that they're his favorite and Gugu tells him that Iddy showed him a picture of it and figured she wanted to eat some.

Yuki was surprised his pot worked and figures Fushi can use this method to communicate with him and Iddy without the Nokkers in paradise knowing. Yuki explains further that even though the Nokkers don't have eyes, ears, or noses, they can still find Fushi. So he figures that they must have their own way of communicating with each other. That's why he asked Nokker Funa and Nokker Mizuha such a strange question earlier to see their reactions. Nokker Funa wasn't sure how to respond so she glanced at Nokker Mizuha as if to check with her. Yuki speculates that they must be using their eyes for communication because if they had telepathy, they wouldn't need to do such a thing. To further support his theory, he asks Bonchien if Fen and Nixon communicate by telepathy, but they don't know what that is. Yuki concludes that the Nokkers in paradise aren't bound to earth's rules and they use their own extraterrestrial rules to communicate to the Nokkers on earth.

Fushi is unsure of what to make of Yuki's theory. Yuki reshapes his pot and tells Fushi the next part will have to be communicated in secret as to not let the Nokkers overhear.

Yuki continues on and tells Fushi (via pot now) that the Nokkers original goals was to lead everyone's fye to paradise which goes against their current claims of coexistence. Yuki supposes their current actions are part of a larger scheme to bring everyone to paradise. But their plans will never be complete as long as Fushi is around. Knowing Fushi can't die just by being attacked, that's why they search for where his fye is located. Yuki says if he was a Nokker, he would go after Fushi's creator for answers. Meanwhile, Satoru is walking back to the orphanage alone at night. Sumika appears behind him with her two sisters and calls out to Satoru to walk with them. He ignores them and keeps walking by himself. Lightning strikes and Sumika's sisters cling to her in fright. As she hugs and comforts them she notices Satoru unfazed. She asks if he's scared and to come join them but he denies it, putting on a tough act. Lightning strikes once more and Sumika sees Satoru flinch. Seeing through his act, she runs and hugs him, saying she's the one that's scared.
