Value is the fifty-seventh chapter of the Made in Abyss manga series.
Synopsis[]
As the creatures of the 6th Layer make their way inside The Village of Iruburu, they attack the shocked villagers. Moogie, seeing how their fellow villagers are decimated and shaken by the events unfolding, says that it is over for them and that all will come to an end. Moogie is pulled out of shock by Maaa, who carries the unconscious Riko, and the two evacuate the girl.
Faputa, witnessing the chaos, becomes infuriated that she is being deprived of her duty to destroy the village and its inhabitants and begins attacking them.
The primeval creatures strike back at Faputa, in turn, heavily mutilating her. Eaten and vomited out by a creature. As the villagers watch Faputa fight the creatures, getting more and more hurt, they question why they care for her well-being, even though she is trying to kill them.
As Faputa is about to be attacked by a Turbinid-Dragon, Gaburoon tries to shoot at it with a broken arm. Faputa is happy that Gaburoon is still functional and tells Gaburoon to hurry to get up and move because she doesn't want them to get completely destroyed. Gaburoon apologizes to her, for having not been able to protect her, and admits to regretting that they won't be able to learn how Faputa, being born holding vengeance, obtained something irreplaceable and called it "Value". Gaburoon tells her the days they spent together were their precious "Haku", just before the Turbinid-Dragon crushes them with its leg and destroying them completely.
Faputa is shocked and angered, but a blast from the Turbinid-Dragon sends her flying. Afterwards, she is too damaged to move and contemplates what Value lies in her immortality if she is unable to move anymore. As she lies on the ground, the villagers begin approaching her and feed the Value of their bodies to her, to her irritation.
As she consumes the villagers, she reflects on her loved ones and how she hadn't fully understood them. She feels a fire inside and wonders if it is "Value" that lies beyond duty, hidden in wait.
A villager is snatched by an intruding creature, but the two are devoured by a resurgent Faputa.
Faputa lets out a scream, rattling the creatures and onlookers. As she recalls the memories she witnessed, Reg's words to her, and Belaf's final message, she steps forward. Filled with new confidence, adorned with golden patterns, flowing hair, and mysterious symbols in her eyes, she remarks, "Do not decide for Faputa. Faputa will go learn of Value... for herself, sosu".
