[00:02] Fate
    You sure you've got Wrath and not Gluttony?
[00:06] Fate
    We just bought all those supplies...
    How much do you need to eat?
[00:11] Myne
    Rage burns a lot of calories.
[00:13] Fate
    With all the eating you do, I have
    to wonder where it all goes.
[00:20] Fate
    Hang on! Don't do it!
[01:57] Fate
    If you could please handle the repairs.
[01:57] [SONG] Eptitle sign
    The Twilight Swordsman
[01:59] Driver
    Sure thing. That'll be
    costing you extra, though.
[02:05] Fate
    Huh? Where's Myne?
[02:09] Fate
    Just does whatever she wants... Myne!
[02:19] Fate
    This place seems pretty peaceful.
[02:22] Greed
    We're near Galia at this point.
    That means monsters pose a big threat.
[02:26] Greed
    I'd bet there's someone
    very powerful protecting this village.
[02:29] Fate
    Makes sense. What's that castle?
[02:32] Greed
    Based on where we are,
    I'd say that's Hausen.
[02:34] Fate
    I thought that Seifort had
    the only castle around here.
[02:45] Fate
    Excuse me, where's the mayor?
[02:48] Fate
    We're looking to stay
    in this village for a while.
[02:51] Aaron
    I'm this village's chief.
[02:53] Greed
    That's a holy sword.
[02:56] Fate
    You're a holy knight?
[02:57] Greed
    I get it. He must be defending the village.
[03:02] Aaron
    You'd like to stay, is that right?
[03:04] Aaron
    First, I'd like you to cross swords
    with me for a bit.
[03:08] Aaron
    Identify, eh?
[03:10] Aaron
    You're level 1, but with stats
    over two million.
[03:14] Fate
    When did you use Identify on me?!
[03:19] Aaron
    Are we doing this or not?
[03:33] Greed
    Hey! Don't drop me!
[03:42] Fate
    I take it this means we don't get to stay...
[03:44] Aaron
    Far from it. I sense a purpose
    in this chance meeting.
[03:47] Aaron
    You're welcome to stay.
[03:49] Fate
    Really?
[03:50] Aaron
    On one condition, though.
[03:53] Fate
    What's that?
[03:54] Aaron
    During your stay, you'll train under me.
[03:58] Fate
    Why train me?
[03:59] Aaron
    Let's just call it the whims of an old man.
[04:02] Greed
    This is fishy.
[04:04] Fate
    Yeah...
[04:04] Aaron
    You don't know how to counter Identify.
[04:08] Aaron
    You're not making the most of
    your other skills, either.
[04:11] Aaron
    I feel like your body isn't
    accustomed to its strength.
[04:14] Aaron
    The way you fight will serve
    you well against monsters
[04:17] Aaron
    but less so against other humans.
[04:19] Aaron
    There's nothing for you to lose
    from my instruction.
[04:23] Aaron
    What do you say?
[04:24] Greed
    And he's not asking for anything in return?
    Just keeps getting sketchier.
[04:28] Fate
    But... it's not every day you get an offer
    to learn directly from a holy knight.
[04:33] Greed
    Suit yourself, then.
[04:36] Fate
    I'm Fate Graphite. Nice to meet you.
[04:40] Aaron
    Aaron Barbatos.
[04:43] Fate
    Myne?
[04:44] Aaron
    Is this your companion?
[04:45] Fate
    Yes.
[04:48] Aaron
    Well... a warrior. And a very
    capable one at that.
[04:52] Fate
    You can tell?
[04:53] Myne
    Fate, we can camp out over there.
[04:55] Fate
    I already found us a place to stay, Myne.
[05:08] Fate
    We're starting with hand-to-hand?
[05:12] Aaron
    Correct. It's the best way
    to learn to control your stats.
[05:16] Aaron
    That's something you
    have trouble with, right?
[05:18] Fate
    I guess you can see right through me.
[05:20] Aaron
    It happens all the time with warriors
    who suddenly become much stronger.
[05:24] Aaron
    Come, Fate, give it a try.
[05:31] Aaron
    Arms closer to your body.
[05:33] Aaron
    Lower your hips.
[05:35] Aaron
    Hands like this.
[05:36] Fate
    Ow!
[05:39] Aaron
    You're tensing up too much.
[05:42] Aaron
    You need to loosen up, like this!
[05:46] Fate
    So fast!
[05:47] Aaron
    The more you flex, the weaker
    and slower your movement.
[05:50] Aaron
    You'll generate more power
    from a relaxed state.
[05:53] Aaron
    And beyond that, you'll be able to
    pursue unconscious power!
[05:57] Fate
    Right!
[06:02] Myne
    Hungry...
[06:03] Fate
    He's right, I can move better
    if I don't tense up.
[06:07] Fate
    And if I can control my stats better...
[06:10] Fate
    Damn it! Why is Gluttony acting up now?!
[06:13] Aaron
    Your eye color has changed. What's wrong?
[06:16] Fate
    This is bad...
[06:19] Aaron
    Well, you're suddenly moving much better.
[06:22] Fate
    You're a good teacher, Aaron.
[06:24] Aaron
    I see... How about this, then?!
[06:32] Greed
    You're able to move pretty well
    despite being nearly starved now.
[06:39] Aaron
    Tomorrow, we'll move on to
    actual combat practice.
[06:43] Fate
    Right!
[06:44] Fate
    I can smell a monster...
[06:48] Fate
    Is there a monster in that castle?
[06:49] Aaron
    What in the world?
[06:51] Fate
    Aaron!
[06:55] Fate
    What is wrong with her...?
[06:57] Fate
    I'm sorry about this.
[06:58] Aaron
    Don't worry about it. I'll go ask
     the villagers to share some food.
[07:03] Fate
    Dammit, as if being nearly starved
    wasn't bad enough...
[07:11] Fate
    This is your fault, y'know? Yours.
[07:12] Greed
    Whoa, I wouldn't do that if I were you.
[07:15] Greed
    Getting reckless all of a sudden, huh?
[07:45] Fate
    Is that... Aaron?
[07:48] Fate
    So this would be his son?
[07:50] Greed
    He looks like you, Fate.
[07:53] Greed
    I get it now.
[07:54] Greed
    Looks like there's a reason he's the head
    of a village in the middle of nowhere.
[08:10] Aaron
    I want you to parry my strike with that stick.
[08:13] Fate
    With just a wooden stick?!
[08:14] Fate
    It's obviously gonna break!
[08:16] Aaron
    You've been training under me.
    You'll manage.
[08:19] Fate
    Understood. Whenever you're ready!
[08:21] Aaron
    Now then, let's begin!
[08:24] Fate
    Predict the angle and path of the sword...
[08:27] Fate
    Then with the minimum amount of strength,
    like you're sliding across the blade!
[08:34] Aaron
    Well done!
[08:35] Aaron
    You're able to control those stats, now.
[08:38] Fate
    Yes! Thank you so much.
[08:41] Myne
    Here's a reward from me.
[08:43] Fate
    From you, Myne?
[08:48] Myne
    Good. It suits you.
[08:51] Greed
    I tried to warn you.
[08:54] Aaron
    You're leaving early tomorrow?
[08:56] Fate
    Yeah. Thank you for everything you've done.
    You should thank him, too, Myne.
[09:01] Fate
    Myne...
[09:03] Fate
    Sorry about her.
[09:04] Aaron
    It's no problem. By all means, eat your fill.
[09:08] Aaron
    There's plenty of meat and vegetables, still.
[09:10] Myne
    It all tastes the same.
[09:13] Myne
    My sense of taste is gone.
[09:15] Greed
    That's the price she pays for Wrath.
[09:18] Myne
    I've got a mission.
[09:21] Fate
    A mission...?
[09:25] Aaron
    A goal you need done, eh?
[09:35] Fate
    Is there something in that castle?
[09:37] Aaron
    Hausen...
[09:39] Aaron
    It used to be my castle.
[09:43] Aaron
    That was 15 years ago.
[09:48] Aaron
    I had left Hausen on royal orders...
[09:56] (Flashback) Luke
    I'm going to defend the castle
    while Father is away!
[10:03] Aaron
    My family and my people
    fell to a crowned beast
[10:05] Aaron
    that had grown from accumulated aggression...
[10:09] Aaron
    Ever since, Hausen has belonged to
    the Genesis of Death, a lich lord.
[10:15] Aaron
    My family is still in its clutches.
[10:21] Aaron
    What's the matter, Fate?
[10:23] Fate
    I need to step out for a sec...
[10:29] Aaron
    You're headed to the castle?
[10:30] Fate
    Aaron...
[10:31] Aaron
    I'll join you.
[10:34] Aaron
    This is a good chance
    to put my past to rest.
[10:38] Myne
    I'll watch the village.
[10:40] Myne
    How's 50 gold coins sound?
[11:03] Aaron
    Magic arrows?
[11:04] Fate
    With a petrifying effect
    caused by Sandstorm.
[11:07] Aaron
    That's a technique so difficult to manage,
    they've stopped studying it in the capital.
[11:12] Aaron
    I'm impressed.
[11:13] Fate
    It's nothing.
[11:14] Greed
    The credit all belongs to me.
[11:16] Aaron
    Let's keep moving!
[11:18] Fate
    Right.
[11:32] Fate
    From the second floor?
[11:33] Aaron
    An invitation, most likely. Let's go.
[11:42] Aaron
    Impossible!
[11:43] Luke
    Father!
[11:45] Aaron
    It can't be...
[11:47] Diana
    Welcome home, dear.
[11:50] Servants
    Welcome home, master.
[11:54] Diana
    We've been waiting so long for you, dear.
[11:57] Aaron
    Luke... Diana...
[12:01] Aaron
    You're both...
[12:05] Aaron
    You were both still alive.
[12:07] Luke
    What do you mean, Father?
[12:09] Diana
    You must be exhausted, dear.
[12:11] Luke
    Did you carry out your mission
    from the king, Father?
[12:13] Aaron
    I did. The stampede has been dealt with.
[12:16] Luke
    That's amazing!
[12:18] Luke
    Could you tell us more about it?
[12:20] Aaron
    I suppose I can...
[12:22] Fate
    What's going on here, Greed?
[12:25] Greed
    They might look alive,
    but they're definitely not.
[12:28] Greed
    This is an illusion spell.
[12:30] Fate
    All of this is an illusion?
[12:35] Diana
    Oh, you two, that's enough chat for now.
[12:39] Diana
    You should get some rest, dear.
[12:41] Luke
    Oh, Father, did you bring me a souvenir?
[12:43] Aaron
    Of course I did.
[12:45] Luke
    All right!
[12:49] Fate
    Aaron!
[12:52] Aaron
    You've grown so strong, Luke!
[12:56] Luke
    Because I had to protect the castle
    in your absence, Father.
[13:00] Luke
    For so many long, long, unending years...!
[13:04] Luke
    While you only care about work, work, work!
[13:06] Luke
    You abandoned us to monsters
    for your duty in the capital!
[13:11] Luke
    How could you show up
    after all this time to kill us?!
[13:14] Diana
    We're still alive!
[13:17] Fate
    Aaron, I can get rid of the illusions.
[13:20] Fate
    Greed, I need the black scythe.
[13:23] Greed
    It can cut through the effects
    caused by a skill, true.
[13:26] Greed
    But when it does that,
    it'll mean slaying them.
[13:30] Greed
    Souls that are devoured
    by Gluttony can never pass on.
[13:35] Greed
    It's like being confined to an endless hell
    with no hope of salvation!
[13:40] Fate
    I can't do that to them...
[13:46] Aaron
    Fate!
[13:48] Aaron
    Sorry, but would you
    let me handle my family?
[13:52] Fate
    In that case, I'll find the lich lord!
[13:57] Aaron
    Luke... you truly have become strong.
[14:00] Aaron
    You must have followed my teachings,
    never shirking your training.
[14:09] Fate
    This place is thick with its scent.
[14:13] Fate
    There!
[14:15] Fate
    No more hide and seek!
[14:22] Fate
    There's the lich lord!
[14:26] Fate
    All of its stats are above a million!

    Its power to control corpses is still intact.
[14:47] Zombie Servant
    Save us, please...
[14:50] Zombie Servant
    Help... please...
[14:53] Fate
    I can't attack them.
[14:55] Greed
    Fate, behind you!
[15:00] Aaron
    Sorry about the delay. I'm ready now.
[15:03] Aaron
    I've cut the tendons in their limbs
    to immobilize them.
[15:07] Aaron
    Now, then...
[15:11] Aaron
    Diana.
[15:12] Diana
    Reconsider...
[15:15] (Flashback) Diana
    Reconsider, dear.
[15:18] (Flashback) Luke
    She's right, Father. Why is it always
    you on these dangerous missions?
[15:22] (Flashback) Aaron
    It's all right. You don't need to worry.
[15:24] (Flashback) Aaron
    Once I've dealt with the monsters,
    I'll be right back.
[15:29] Aaron
    That's right. If I had...
[15:32] Aaron
    If I had returned faster...
[15:35] Aaron
    But now, I can end your suffering.
[15:39] Aaron
    Grand Cross!
[15:53] Aaron
    I've nearly got him...!
[15:56] Fate
    What do we do?
[16:00] Fate
    His son's sword...?
[16:02] Fate
    Greed?
[16:03] Greed
    Just don't make a habit out of it.
[16:05] Fate
    Right!
[16:08] Fate
    Aaron! I'll help!
[16:09] Aaron
    That's...
[16:11] Fate
    Let's end this!
[16:14] Aaron
    I think we will.
[16:18] Both
    Grand Cross!
[16:49] Aaron
    I'm sorry I kept you waiting for so long.
[17:01] Luke
    It's not your fault, Father.
[17:03] Aaron
    Luke... I...
[17:06] Diana
    Besides, you saved us in the end.
[17:11] Aaron
    Diana.
[17:15] Aaron
    If only I had made up my mind sooner...
[17:18] Aaron
    No. I should've never left your side.
[17:21] Aaron
    I knew that you both were more
    important than any orders, and yet...
[17:26] Aaron
    It must've been painful.
[17:29] Aaron
    Forgive me.
[17:31] Luke
    We're okay now.
[17:33] Diana
    And for our sake, please,
    do what you think is right.
[17:37] Aaron
    Right. I promise.
[17:40] Aaron
    I will live in a way
    that honors your memory.
[17:47] Aaron
    I know it's late, Luke,
    but I have your souvenir.
[17:55] Luke
    Thank you, Father.
[17:59] Aaron
    Diana. Luke.
[18:21] Voice
    Gluttony skill has activated.
[18:25] Fate
    No one is interrupting this.
[18:35] Fate
    It's important... that he gets
    to say goodbye...
[18:59] Aaron
    Go on ahead. Wait for me.
[19:02] Aaron
    When I've finished what
    I must do... I'll join you.
[19:17] Fate
    You exceeded your level limit?!
[19:18] Aaron
    Yes. Likely because of fighting
    at your side, Fate.
[19:23] Greed
    Sounds possible.
[19:24] Greed
    It'd need to be someone that you,
    with your skill, accept, though...
[19:28] Fate
    Seriously?
[19:29] Aaron
    Now then, I have a horde of monsters
    that need dealing with.
[19:37] Fate
    Skeletons!
[19:38] Greed
    There's still this many left?
[19:41] Fate
    Care for a race, then?
[19:42] Aaron
    Interesting. Let's do it!
[19:45] Fate
    Right!
[19:50] Myne
    Late.
[19:51] Fate
    Calm down, Myne!
[19:52] Fate
    And put Sloth down!
[19:54] Aaron
    Your fee, and a little extra as an apology.
[19:58] Fate
    What a mercenary...
[20:01] Myne
    Need money to rebuild village.
[20:03] Fate
    For the village, huh?
[20:05] Myne
    Money doesn't lie. You learn that
    if you live long enough.
[20:10] Fate
    Long enough...?
[20:11] Aaron
    I'd been thinking I'd seen you somewhere
    before... and now I remember.
[20:17] Aaron
    Fifty years ago, monsters appeared in
    this town, and I caught a glimpse of you.
[20:22] Fate
    Fifty years ago?!
[20:24] Aaron
    Yes, and you looked exactly the same...
[20:27] Aaron
    Even then, you were the picture of a warrior.
[20:31] Myne
    You've got a good eye.
[20:33] Myne
    With a millennium of training,
    Aaron, you might catch up to me.
[20:36] Fate
    A millennium?!
[20:37] Aaron
    A harsh appraisal!
[20:39] Myne
    It's true, though. Humans have their limits.
[20:42] Aaron
    What does that make you, then?
[20:46] Myne
    I'm a phantom who's not allowed to die.
[20:50] Fate
    A phantom...?
[20:53] Myne
    And it's time you paid me back.
[20:56] Fate
    Myne...
[20:59] Aaron
    Your eyes are back to normal.
[21:01] Fate
    I have a condition where I need
    to slay monsters regularly.
[21:06] Fate
    If I don't, my eyes turn red—
[21:08] Aaron
    And a great burden
    is inflicted on your soul, eh?
[21:13] Aaron
    Fate, when you've done what you
    need to do, come back here.
[21:17] Aaron
    I have something important to tell you.
[21:25] Memil
    The philosopher's stone, capable
    of healing any illness or wound!
[21:29] Memil
    I didn't think you'd really find it!
[21:31] Memil
    Maybe immortality isn't out of
    reach after all, Rafale!
[21:35] Rafale
    Indeed.
[21:39] Head Butler
    Begging your pardon, sir.
[21:40] Rafale
    Did anything of note happen
    while we were gone?
[21:43] Rafale
    I haven't seen Hado around.
[21:46] Head Butler
    I need to inform you...
[21:48] Rafale
    Hado's dead?
[21:49] Head Butler
    Yes. According to those who were there,
[21:52] Head Butler
    Corpse is not a monster, but a warrior.
[21:57] Rafale
    That Corpse...
[22:02] Rafale
    Just who is he?
