| Introduction |
Sigma (シグマ, Shiguma) is a member of the Decay of Angels. He is also the general manager of Sky Casino.
Appearance
He is a young man with long straight hair that reaches his waist. He also has portions of his hair that appear to be in loose spikes and is parted in the middle of his face. He also wears earrings on both of his ears. He is seen wearing a long white coat with black pants. His coat has a sparkly or galactic design on the interior.
Personality
He appears to be kind to his customers at the Sky Casino, given the fact that he gave a customer another chance by saying that the game is invalid.
He also appears to have a strong sense of ownership. In a conversation with Teruko Okura to close the casino, Sigma refuses and even asks her who will reimburse the revenue and reputation if the casino were to be closed and claims that the casino is his life and his customers are valuable to him.
Sigma is also a capable leader giving precise and necessary orders to the guards of the Sky Casino when a bomb blew its exits. However, when alone he is a worrisome person.
He was also described as implacable by Fyodor since Sigma is a desperate man.
Ability
His ability allows him to exchange information with anyone he touches. The exchange consists of "giving" the personal information they want to know and thus giving Sigma the information he wants to know.[1]
Background
It was later revealed by Fyodor Dostoevsky that Sigma himself was a person born from being written into The Book, this was later confirmed by Sigma who told that when he first opened his eyes and became aware of his surroundings, the first thing that greeted him was not a midwife or a mother but instead a vast desert, filled with nothingness and his only possession being the clothes on his back and a train ticket from a station that does not exist. Confused with his circumstances, he wandered around the desert nothingness until he was eventually captured by an armed group and held prisoner, where he eventually unlocked his Gift, causing his captors to then take advantage of his ability for their gain during his time with them. Eventually, he managed to escape from then and continued to wander the world nihilistically due to not knowing his reason for living or existing until he was eventually approached and invited by Fyodor to join the Decay of Angels and upon agreeing he was eventually also given the duty of overseeing the Sky Casino, a job he eventually came to love due to it giving him a sense of purpose. [2] Somewhere along his time together with the Decay of Angels he eventually obtains information on the location of the "page" of the Book, as stated by Atsushi Nakajima.
Plot
Decay of Angels Arc
Battle at the Sky Casino
Sigma refuses to blockade the casino
In the operation of Hunting Dogs in finding Lucy Maud Montgomery, Teruko Okura lead a team towards the Sky Casino stating that Lucy Maud Montgomery and the others entered the casino, telling him there is a need to blockade the casino and deploy the police to every section. However, Sigma refuses to close the casino. After someone blew the exits of the casino, Sigma orders the soldiers to don't panic and gives them personal orders. While monitoring the events in the Sky Casino, he finds Tachihara in a hotel room where the RDG1800 counterfeit coins are kept in a safe. Panicking, he decides to make it explode in order to kill Tachihara, however, Tachihara manages to stop the metal piece, preventing the blast
After realizing, he did not successfully kill him, Sigma decides to use his trump card, an aircraft to attack Tachihara. However, before reaching Tachihara, Teruko manages to stop it on time. After Teruko's fight with the guards, Sigma orders the customers via their respective room's televisions to attack Teruko and Tachihara on sight and tells them that whoever manages to kill them will have their debts to the casino written off, those who wound them will earn 10, 000 dollars, and 1,000,000 for knocking them unconscious. After managing to escape the customers, Teruko meets up with Sigma in the telecommunication room.
Sigma attacks Teruko with the Painless Gun
Sigma then faces Teruko and says that he can not and would not surrender and tells that even the key breaks it would be meaningless unless if someone can override the controls with the key, they cannot block the detonation signal. Sigma then throws the key to Teruko. After giving it to her, Sigma attacks her with The Painless Gun, a weapon with a 7.62 mm ammo that can pierce even armored vehicles. However, Teruko manages to stop it and blocks its passage with knives. Sigma then decides to add a new turret to the device however Teruko stops him. Just as Teruko hinted that Sigma is done over, Sigma pulls out a directed resonance gun, pushes her onto the floor and shoots her. After shooting her, Sigma shouts that those are the strength of his feelings. However, Teruko manages to stand up and push Sigma at the edge of the casino. Teruko then offers Sigma two choices, surrender or else she'll drop him, Sigma again refuses and tells that he had no chance of winning and at that rate, both he and the casino will be destroyed. He then decides to drag Teruko along with him in order to save the casino. While falling, Sigma tightly holds onto Teruko's arms in order for her not to escape however Teruko kicks him and manages to free from Sigma.
As Sigma is falling, Atsushi grabs him and they manage to land at the box with the electric power installation at the casino's base level. Sigma asks Atsushi the reason for saving him. Atsushi replies that he saved him in order to save the Armed Detective Agency since he knows the location of the page. Sigma then asks Atsushi if he is sure he will tell him up front. Atsushi then shows him a video of Ango telling him that he'd be able to read the memories of "the page". Sigma then states that he had taken measures against Ango's ability. Ango then replies that they just have to take it the old-fashioned way, torturing the subject until they speak since he cannot forgive the man who stabbed Chief Taneda. Sigma then replies that he did not wish to stab the chief, it was only a threat and gives them the permission to ask him and states that after all, he did not understand what he was born for in the first place.
Sigma falling from the Sky Casino
After the conversation, Nathaniel appears before them. Ango warns Atsushi to be careful with him since he intends to kill him and save Sigma, however, Nathaniel attacks Sigma causing him to fall. Sigma was saved by Atsushi. While grabbing on a pipe, Nathaniel shoots Atsushi on the forehead causing them to fall again, however, Atsushi barely saves himself and Sigma by using his tail as a rope. Sigma then orders Atsushi to let go of his hand or he will die too. Atsushi then shouts that he cannot let die someone whose last words is "Ï never understood what I was born for". Sigma then lets go of Atsushi's hand.
Battle at the Sky Casino Aftermath
Sigma is seen falling and sees Gogol waiting at the ground for him. After landing, Sigma wakes up at the sight of Gogol. Gogol then explains how he rescued him. Sigma then asks Gogol that if the one who gave instruction to shoot him was Fyodor, what is the reason for rescuing him and states that Gogol should have died during the hostage operation, Sigma asks Gogol how he survived and Gogol proceeds to tell him. Sigma then states that the one he is surprised with is the fact the Gogol is expected to die yet he does not. Gogol then replies that Fyodor is the one who understood him but if they were to use Sigma's ability to read Fyodor's ability, they will be free from "brainwashing".
