[00:13] AZEST
    I don't understand.
[00:15] AZEST
    Mana, magic speed, combat skills...
[00:19] AZEST
    I'm better than you in all of them
[00:22] AZEST
    and yet I'm struggling. Why?
[00:27] DESIR
    You've got to have more fun.
[00:31] AZEST
    If I'm lacking anything...
[00:36] AZEST
    It would be actual battle experience.
[00:40] DESIR
    I knew you'd do that.
[00:43] DESIR
    Fireball!
[00:47] AZEST
    It's pointless.
[00:57] DESIR
    Strength!
[01:15] [SONG] SIGN
    Fate is always more heroic than any story
[01:25] [SONG] SIGN
    The one and only despair flaunts
    a completely different sky
[01:32] [SONG] SIGN
    A stolen smile
[01:34] [SONG] SIGN
    Put a period on the nights
    of lament and depression
[01:44] [SONG] SIGN
    When the season comes around
    for the second time, gear yourself up
[01:48] [SONG] SIGN
    For the final challenge
[01:53] [SONG] SIGN
    Why don't we struggle, cry, and bloom away?
[01:56] [SONG] SIGN
    I have a future, a future I want to
    go back to no matter what it takes
[02:02] [SONG] SIGN
    Here we go and embrace
    the next life, nice to meet you
[02:06] [SONG] SIGN
    There's a world, a world
    I want to repaint with you
[02:13] [SONG] SIGN
    Let's go see the end together
[02:15] [SONG] SIGN
    The ending credits signal the beginning
[02:18] [SONG] SIGN
    A special story drawn by light and shadow
[02:22] [SONG] SIGN
    Ge ge ge ge ge get back
[02:25] [SONG] SIGN
    To my own story
SIGN    Episode 9
SIGN     Showdown
[02:41] AZEST
    You can block this, too?
[02:45] DESIR
    Did you assume I couldn't use swords?
[02:55] DESIR
    That was amazing power.
[03:07] AZEST/I
    Why...
[03:11] AZEST/I
    Why?!
[03:16] AZEST
    I'm much stronger than you are,
    so why can't I beat you?
[03:30] DESIR
    Isn't this fun, Azest?
[03:34] AZEST
    Fun?
[03:36] DESIR
    As strong as you are,
[03:38] DESIR
    you've never had a battle against
    a worthy opponent, have you?
[03:43] DESIR/I
    Back then, you looked bored all the time
[03:48] DESIR/I
    because battles didn't challenge you..
[03:56] DESIR
    Someone you can't reach
    with your magic or your sword.
[03:59] DESIR
    What do you say?
[04:00] DESIR
    Do you want to beat someone like
    that with everything you've got?
[04:09] AZEST
    I don't know about having fun,
    but I'll admit...
[04:15] AZEST
    I want to beat you.
[04:19] DESIR
    Give me everything you've got!
[04:21] AZEST
    I will.
[04:32] AZEST
    Frozen Throne!
[05:00] DESIR
    Vision Magic, huh?
[05:02] DESIR
    I can't inverse that.
[05:09] AZEST
    Are you ready?
[05:36] DESIR/I
    Inside the frozen palace of Vision Magic,
    she can wield her magic without limitation.
[05:43] DESIR/I
    It's the trump card Azest
    used before I returned.
[05:47] DESIR/I
    It's incredible that she can use it already.
[05:52] DESIR/I
    But...
[06:03] DESIR
    Are you finished?
[06:10] DESIR
    It doesn't matter how many you make.
[06:16] DESIR
    Your magic will not reach me.
[06:26] AZEST/I
    Every spell is immediately inversed.
[06:30] AZEST/I
    What about my sword?
[06:32] AZEST/I
    No, not enough...
[06:35] AZEST/I
    Not my sword alone... nor my magic alone.
[07:19] DESIR
    Brilliant, Azest.
[07:40] ROMANTICA
    Are you okay?
[07:41] PRAM
    Yes.
[07:42] PRAM
    He is very strong.
[07:47] ROMANTICA
    We have to beat Doneta before
     spiky hair joins the fray.
[07:52] PRAM
    I agree.
[07:59] DONETA
    Percival, give me a hand.
[08:05] PERCIVAL
    I thought you were going to
    take care of the commoners.
[08:10] DONETA
    I don't want to waste any more
    of my time on the stupid commoners.
[08:16] PERCIVAL
    Talk about selfish...
[08:19] PERCIVAL
    All right, then, let's get ready to rumble!
[08:23] ROMANTICA
    Pram.
[08:24] PRAM
    I'll handle this.
[08:28] PERCIVAL
    Take this!
[08:38] PRAM
    Romantica!
[08:41] PERCIVAL
    You're dead!
[08:43] PRAM
    Crap!
[08:57] ROMANTICA
    I can do this!
[08:59] ROMANTICA
    Pram, get down.
[09:03] ROMANTICA
    Checkmate!
[09:26] DESIR/
    Magic sword...
[09:28] DESIR/
    The ultimate attack method that can
    only be used by magic knights.
[09:32] DESIR/
    Usually, it takes about
    ten years to master it, but...
[09:37] DESIR/
    She fit ten years into the blink of an eye.
[09:41] AZEST
    Here I go.
[09:45] DESIR
    Stone Break!
[09:56] DESIR
    Fire Road!
[10:10] AZEST
    It seems that you can't inverse this one.
[10:32] AZEST
    It's my victory, Desi—
[10:39] AZEST
    Inversing... but what?
[10:54] AZEST
    It can't be...
[11:04] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    The quest is cleared.
[11:06] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    The magical power of the Privius
    Clock Tower has been severed,
[11:09] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    and it has stopped functioning.
[11:12] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    This marks the end of the
    ranking tournament's final round.
[11:25] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    The darkness of the Privius
    Clock Tower has been dispelled.
[11:29] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    The clock tower will never
    again summon demons.
[11:35] FEMALE ANNOUNCEMENT/I
    The person who cleared
    the quest is... Desir Herrman.
[11:50] FERGMAN
    Damn it!
[11:55] FERGMAN
    It's not possible!
[11:58] FERGMAN
    I will not acknowledge it!
[12:10] FERGMAN
    Professor Brigitte must have used
    some sort of illegal means!
[12:16] FERGMAN
    It's impossible for a commoner to outdo
    a magic knight and clear a Shadow World!
[12:22] PROFESSOR E
    Exactly!
[12:24] PROFESSOR E
    It's a fraud!
[12:26] PROFESSOR A
    By fraud, do you mean Professor Brigitte
     leaked the content of the exam
[12:31] PROFESSOR A
    to certain students?
[12:33] FERGMAN
    That's right!
[12:36] PROFESSOR A
    Where's your proof?
[12:37] FERGMAN
    It's obvious!
[12:40] PROFESSOR A
    Everyone here watched them fight.
[12:44] PROFESSOR A
    It's hard to believe anything
    illegal took place.
[12:47] FERGMAN
    Something will turn up if we investigate!
[12:52] AIDE A
    Please stop this, Professor Fergman.
[12:56] AIDE B
    We're in the presence of the headmaster.
[13:04] HEADMASTER
    Bring it to me.
[13:05] AIDE B
    Yes, sir.
[13:14] AIDE B
    These are the names of the single rankers
    determined by the headmaster.
[13:23] PROFESSOR A
    If you'd already determined them,
    why did you hold this meeting?
[13:29] HEADMASTER
    I wanted to hear your opinions.
[13:33] HEADMASTER
    Even if they are rubbish
    that isn't worth listening to.
[13:38] FERGMAN
    R-Rubbish?!
[13:42] AIDE B
    I will read the names
    of the nine single rankers.
[13:57] DESIR
    The objective of our party
[14:00] DESIR
    was to reduce the number
    of alphas down to nine
[14:03] DESIR
    by pitting other parties against each other.
[14:08] DESIR
    But you saw right through it.
[14:12] AZEST
    Yes. You couldn't have become single
    rankers unless you defeated us...
[14:19] AZEST
    or so we thought.
[14:22] DESIR
    It wasn't just you, Azest.
[14:24] DESIR
    The other three from Blue Moon
    were focused on fighting us.
[14:29] DESIR
    That's why we were able to distract you
    from our other objective.
[14:34] AZEST
    Clearing the Shadow World?
[14:37] DESIR
    Bingo.
[14:40] DESIR
    I got to the clock tower
    slightly before you,
[14:43] DESIR
    so I tried to analyze the spell,
    but I didn't have enough time.
[14:47] DESIR
    As expected of such
    a historical magical device.
[14:54] DESIR
    I barely managed to analyze it
    because I was one-on-one with you.
[14:58] DESIR
    If all the alphas had come at me together,
    I'd have been in over my head.
[15:05] AZEST
    You weren't focused on the battle against me.
    You were looking at the bigger picture.
[15:12] DESIR
    Like I was during the entrance exam.
[15:19] AZEST
    I see.
[15:26] AZEST
    Perhaps I've been playing into
     your hands ever since.
[15:37] AZEST
    You defeated me utterly.
[15:41] DESIR
    Just by a hair.
[15:43] DESIR
    If your sword had come slightly faster...
[15:46] PRAM
    If it had,
[15:50] PRAM
    we would have fought in your place.
[15:53] ROMANTICA
    We had already beaten Doneta
    and spiky hair.
[15:58] PRAM
    Desir!
[15:59] DESIR
    Hey.
[16:00] ROMANTICA
    Come on, make some space.
[16:05] ROMANTICA
    You got a problem?
[16:07] PRAM
    Grrr...
[16:16] DESIR
    We survived and won
    thanks to your magic, Romantica.
[16:20] DESIR
    Thank you.
[16:21] ROMANTICA
    What?!
[16:23] ROMANTICA
    Y-You don't have to thank me
    for something like that.
[16:27] PRAM
    Desir, what about me? Me?!
[16:32] DESIR
    You did really well, too, Pram.
[16:34] DESIR
    There, there, there, there!
[16:38] DESIR
    There, there, there, there!
[16:39] ROMANTICA
    Hey! That's not fair!
[16:41] PRAM
    Thank you so much.
[16:42] DESIR
    You, too, Romantica.
[16:43] DESIR
    There, there, there, there...
[16:47] ROMANTICA
    I mean, I didn't ask you to do that!
[16:51] PRAM
    Then you can pet my head more instead!
[16:54] ROMANTICA
    Huh?! Why?!
[17:06] DESIR
    You're going?
[17:08] AZEST
    Professor Fergman wants to see me.
[17:10] AZEST
    Because we lost to you.
[17:26] AZEST
    Desir.
[17:29] AZEST
    I... have a favor to ask,
    although I know I'm asking a lot.
[17:34] DESIR
    What is it?
[17:36] AZEST
    Could I... join your training?
[17:42] DESIR
    What?
[17:43] ROMANTICA
    Of course you can't!
[17:46] ROMANTICA
    Right, Desir?
[17:50] DESIR
    Meet us at the main gate of the training area
    at six in the morning and after school.
[17:55] ROMANTICA
    Come on, Desir!
[17:59] ROMANTICA
    Don't nod in agreement!
[18:14] DESIR
    Well, we should get going, too.
[18:18] DESIR
    Professor Brigitte is waiting for us.
[18:22] BRIGITTE
    Great job, everyone!
[18:25] DESIR
    Thank you.
[18:27] PRAM
    Ma'am.
[18:28] ROMANTICA
    And... what's the verdict?
[18:35] BRIGITTE
    First...
[18:42] ROMANTICA
    Is that... a special cake
    from Beswald Bakery?!
[18:48] DESIR
    Is it famous?
[18:51] ROMANTICA
    A super popular store where
     people line up for half the day
[18:54] ROMANTICA
    just to buy a loaf of bread!
[18:56] ROMANTICA
    Their cakes are reserved
    for the next three years!
[19:00] PRAM
    It looks yummy!
[19:03] ROMANTICA
    If you're serving us such a
    special cake, does it mean...?
[19:10] BRIGITTE
    No, you didn't pass.
[19:12] ROMANTICA
    Are you kidding?!
[19:14] BRIGITTE
    Yes, I'm kidding!
[19:16] DESIR/ROMANTICA/PRAM
    What...?
[19:18] ROMANTICA
    Jeez...
[19:20] BRIGITTE
    I'm sorry. I wanted to surprise you.
[19:25] BRIGITTE
    Desir Herrman.
[19:27] DESIR
    Yes.
[19:29] BRIGITTE
    Romantica Eru.
[19:30] ROMANTICA
    Y-Yes!
[19:32] BRIGITTE
    Pram Schnaizer.
[19:34] PRAM
    Yes!
[19:35] BRIGITTE
    Congratulations.
[19:36] BRIGITTE
    As of today, all three of you are
    officially registered as single rankers.
[19:42] BRIGITTE
    You are promoted to the alpha class.
[19:47] ROMANTIC/PRAM
    Yes!
[19:50] BRIGITTE
    Come on, let's celebrate.
[19:53] BRIGITTE
    Have as much as you'd like.
[19:56] ROMANTIC
    With extra chocolate, please!
[19:57] PRAM
    With extra cream, please!
[19:59] DESIR
    Thank you so much for everything.
[20:03] BRIGITTE
    Don't mention it.
[20:04] BRIGITTE
    You outsmarted that dumpy scum,
    so this is the least I can do.
[20:11] DESIR
    "Dumpy scum"?
[20:12] FERGMAN
    Achoo!
[20:19] BRIGITTE
    Here, enjoy!
[20:36] (Flashback) CHILDREN
    Goodbye, Ms. Brigitte!
[20:49] (Flashback) BRIGITTE
    Oh, what's wrong?
[20:52] (Flashback) DESIR
    Teach me...
[20:54] (Flashback) DESIR
    Please teach me magic!
[21:29] BRIGITTE/I
    You've grown so strong, Desir.
[21:35] [SONG] SIGN
    I thought you were the only one for me
[21:38] [SONG] SIGN
    I thought you were the only one for me
[21:41] [SONG] SIGN
    Even though that couldn't be
[21:49] [SONG] SIGN
    All emotions will fade away sooner or later
[21:54] [SONG] SIGN
    So we can pretend it's all a fairytale
[22:00] [SONG] SIGN
    Even love is just a fleeting dream
[22:05] [SONG] SIGN
    So let's throw the dice
    and see what's in store
[22:10] [SONG] SIGN
    I rolled a six today, eight times in a row
[22:16] [SONG] SIGN
    But who knows what
    tomorrow's play will bring?
[22:21] [SONG] SIGN
    I hope one day we'll be able to say
[22:26] [SONG] SIGN
    That not knowing was the best part
[22:32] [SONG] SIGN
    I thought you were the only one for me
[22:35] [SONG] SIGN
    I thought you were the only one for me
[22:37] [SONG] SIGN
    Even though that couldn't be
[22:43] [SONG] SIGN
    If we happen to meet again in the next life
[22:46] [SONG] SIGN
    I'll take any help I can get,
    even my own cat's
[22:48] [SONG] SIGN
    Because this time
[22:51] [SONG] SIGN
    I'll roll a three
[23:29] KRAIKEN
    Now, to the magical tower!
