**[00:26] ---**
Creed Diskenth!
**[00:28] ---**
As the captain of the
Chronos Numbers, I shall...
**[00:33] ---**
eliminate you!
**[01:09] ---**
Creed, prepare to die!
**[01:21] ---**
*That's how it always starts...*
**[01:23] ---**
*under the azure sky*
**[01:26] ---**
*After making a vow,*
**[01:30] ---**
*I now set off*
**[01:46] ---**
*Yeah, the desert glitters with a golden hue*
**[01:51] ---**
*(The wind is scorching)*
**[01:52] ---**
*I'm searching for a diamond flower*
**[01:57] ---**
*(I keep on wandering)*
**[01:59] ---**
*Now, for the first time in my life,*
**[02:06] ---**
*I live for someone else*
**[02:12] ---**
*There's something I wanna protect*
**[02:18] ---**
*I'll never, ever lose it again*
**[02:24] ---**
*Resound, my heartbeat!*
**[02:31] ---**
*A heartbeat smaller and fragile,
but tougher than anyone's.*
**[02:51] ---**
"The Cat’s Showdown"
**[03:11] ---**
Useless! It's useless!
**[03:17] ---**
There!
**[03:19] ---**
What?!
**[03:23] ---**
I thought I said it's useless.
**[03:27] ---**
Now then, stay still and let me kill her...
**[03:30] ---**
The female sweeper who put this
horrible scar on my face...
**[03:37] ---**
Saya Minatsuki!
**[03:40] ---**
Saya, he said?!
**[03:42] ---**
Die, Saya Minatsuki!
**[03:47] ---**
Hold it! She's not Saya!
**[03:50] ---**
It's useless, Sven.
**[03:51] ---**
He can't hear you at all.
**[03:54] ---**
Well, we have no
choice but to run for now!
**[04:35] ---**
Not bad...
**[04:38] ---**
But I want more...
**[04:39] ---**
I want a fierce melody.
**[04:42] ---**
More fierce...
**[04:46] ---**
and more sensual melody...
**[05:03] ---**
It's a pretty nice tune...
**[05:06] ---**
That amazing determination
and fighting sprit...
**[05:08] ---**
Or rather, is this pleasant
feeling "murderous intent"?
**[05:31] ---**
Arks Sword style,
the 36th Finishing Stroke...
**[05:36] ---**
"Death World"!
**[05:37] ---**
Before the Wisdom King,
become ash without pain and suffering,
**[05:42] ---**
Creed Diskenth!
**[05:49] ---**
Th-This is...?!
**[06:00] ---**
It is finally complete...
**[06:02] ---**
my ultimate power!
**[06:05] ---**
Ultimate power?
**[06:07] ---**
No matter how critical the injury is,
I am able to heal myself instantly...
**[06:11] ---**
I can also live eternally.
**[06:15] ---**
I have indeed become a "god."
**[06:26] ---**
Where are you?!
**[06:28] ---**
Where are you, Saya Minatsuki?!
**[06:34] ---**
Come on out!
**[06:38] ---**
There you are!!
**[06:40] ---**
Rot, Saya Minatsuki!
**[06:45] ---**
Huh?!
**[06:50] ---**
Why you! What're you trying to do?!
**[06:54] ---**
Your shirt stayed on you
even though you dissolve anything...
**[07:00] ---**
In other words, this shirt
shouldn't rot and fall, right?
**[07:06] ---**
Strike the gong, Eve.
**[07:11] ---**
Come then!
**[07:13] ---**
Vision Eye... on!
**[07:21] ---**
Too bad.
**[07:23] ---**
After all, it seems the symphony can't be
finished with you as an opponent, Sephiria.
**[07:29] ---**
This "Song of Murderous
Intent and Friendship"
**[07:32] ---**
requires harmony with my true partner...
**[07:36] ---**
With Train Heartnet, that is...
**[07:40] ---**
Heartnet!
**[07:42] ---**
Yes! Train is the one with whom
**[07:45] ---**
I can change this world into "paradise,"
**[07:49] ---**
and who is suitable to reign
together with me as a god!
**[07:54] ---**
The paradise... you desire...
**[08:00] ---**
It's different from the
false peace under Chronos' rule.
**[08:06] ---**
Train and I will choose
who deserves to live,
**[08:10] ---**
and the rest of the
trash will be eliminated.
**[08:13] ---**
It will be a peaceful paradise
filled with murderous intent.
**[08:16] ---**
Ridiculous!
**[08:19] ---**
Such a ridiculous dream...
**[08:21] ---**
I cannot let it become...
**[08:26] ---**
reality!!
**[08:29] ---**
Yes, I know...
**[08:31] ---**
Train!
**[08:32] ---**
I have to eliminate this obstructive
melody before you come, right?!
**[08:48] ---**
The fate of those who defy God...
**[08:54] ---**
How pitiful...
**[08:56] ---**
Farewell, Sephiria Arks.
**[08:59] ---**
Rest in peace.
**[09:16] ---**
For heaven's sake!
**[09:19] ---**
It seems "The Song of Murderous
Intent and Friendship"
**[09:23] ---**
will be unfinished...
**[09:39] ---**
I've come...
**[09:41] ---**
to bring you bad luck!
**[09:46] ---**
Train...
**[09:48] ---**
No, Black Cat...
**[09:52] ---**
You are the one and only man I respected.
**[09:57] ---**
That's why... that's why
I cannot accept it!
**[10:01] ---**
That the only way to release
you from the hold of that witch...
**[10:05] ---**
is to kill you!!
**[10:10] ---**
I don't think of you as Train any longer!
**[10:14] ---**
I will kill you without fail!
**[10:28] ---**
*It's useless, Preta Ghoul.*
**[10:30] ---**
*My Vision Eye can clearly see
your next one hundred punches!*
**[10:53] ---**
It's useless!
**[10:55] ---**
This sword is... a part of me!
**[11:27] ---**
Of all things...
**[11:29] ---**
that witch's trick...
**[11:38] ---**
You should know that you can't
bring me down with an attack like that,
**[11:44] ---**
since I've become a god...
**[12:01] ---**
See? Good as new already.
**[12:05] ---**
What'll you do?
**[12:08] ---**
The way I am now,
you can shoot through my head,
**[12:11] ---**
but as long as there's one fragment
of my brain left, I can regenerate.
**[12:19] ---**
Use that!
**[12:21] ---**
Sephiria!
**[12:22] ---**
Your Hades...
**[12:25] ---**
can demonstrate its ultimate power
**[12:29] ---**
only by using that "orichalcum bullet."
**[12:34] ---**
No matter what your target is,
**[12:37] ---**
it will be able to instantly destroy
the target down to the molecular structure.
**[12:47] ---**
Sorry, Sephiria.
**[12:49] ---**
I didn't come here to kill Creed.
**[12:53] ---**
I came to take him
into custody as a sweeper!
**[12:57] ---**
Oh, stop!
**[13:00] ---**
I've had enough!
**[13:03] ---**
Now that the song ended unfinished...
**[13:05] ---**
I wanted this painting at least,
**[13:08] ---**
to be finished by dyeing these
eyes crimson with your blood...
**[13:12] ---**
No, with your blood and mine!
**[13:17] ---**
But with the way you are now,
**[13:20] ---**
red just doesn't suit the image I have.
**[13:25] ---**
Because when one loses
his murderous intent,
**[13:27] ---**
the beautiful red isn't suitable.
**[13:31] ---**
And!
**[13:34] ---**
All that was needed
to complete this statue
**[13:37] ---**
was to carve your
murderous look on those eyes!
**[13:42] ---**
But now, I don't even know
which way to turn those eyes.
**[14:16] ---**
What?!
**[14:43] ---**
Heartnet!
**[14:47] ---**
Shoot, Heartnet!
**[14:49] ---**
Fire that orichalcum bullet!
**[15:00] ---**
Since this sword is part of you...
**[15:03] ---**
if I break it apart, your
heart will be destroyed, too!
**[15:10] ---**
Break apart!!
**[15:26] ---**
Too bad...
**[15:28] ---**
The disappointment and anger over you
**[15:30] ---**
felt by my Imagine Blade
makes its strength so great...
**[15:33] ---**
that not even your
orichalcum bullet can destroy it.
**[15:39] ---**
Oh?
**[15:44] ---**
I see...
**[15:46] ---**
So that's the orichalcum bullet.
**[15:49] ---**
Fine...
**[15:52] ---**
Go ahead and shoot
through my head with that bullet.
**[15:56] ---**
You may be able to defeat me.
**[16:01] ---**
Don't make me repeat it!
**[16:03] ---**
It'd be meaningless if I killed you.
**[16:07] ---**
You have to live and start over.
**[16:11] ---**
To make up for all those you've killed.
**[16:13] ---**
And, of course, for Saya too.
**[16:17] ---**
And like me...
**[16:19] ---**
Saya is probably wishing the same thing.
**[16:27] ---**
That witch again!
**[16:33] ---**
Damned witch! That witch!
**[16:35] ---**
That witch! That damned witch!!
**[16:45] ---**
Dammit!
**[16:51] ---**
I feel so sad, Train.
**[16:54] ---**
I wanted to create it with you...
**[16:57] ---**
the eternal paradise.
**[17:12] ---**
Saya!
**[17:21] ---**
Damn you, what nerve...
**[17:24] ---**
You damn witch!!
**[17:27] ---**
Train-*kun*...
**[17:29] ---**
the way sweepers do things...
**[17:34] ---**
Let's show it to him...
**[17:37] ---**
Shatter into pieces!
**[18:03] ---**
Why aren't you killing me?
**[18:06] ---**
Isn't it obvious?
**[18:09] ---**
We're sweepers, that's why.
**[18:16] ---**
Next!
**[18:17] ---**
No one's left.
**[18:19] ---**
Huh?!
**[18:19] ---**
He cleaned up most of them.
**[18:24] ---**
Well, I just did it
to take my mind off things.
**[18:27] ---**
Ha! Show-off!
**[18:33] ---**
You people are...
**[18:37] ---**
It's over, everyone.
**[18:42] ---**
Yes, the battle is over.
**[18:46] ---**
Sephiria-*san* or Creed...
**[18:48] ---**
It's over no matter who won...
**[18:54] ---**
Heartnet...
**[18:56] ---**
Why?
**[18:57] ---**
That's the way of a sweeper.
**[19:36] ---**
*Let's sing the song*
**[19:43] ---**
*Let's sing the world's song*
**[19:50] ---**
*how far shall we go*
**[19:58] ---**
*Looking up in the sky*
**[20:05] ---**
*A baby's first cry*
**[20:11] ---**
--Echidna...
**[20:12] ---**
--*The beating of an insect's wings...*
**[20:14] ---**
--Can you do it, Eve?
**[20:16] ---**
--Uh-huh...
**[20:19] ---**
-- *Lightly, lightly*
**[20:22] ---**
--Wh-What're you going to do?!
**[20:23] ---**
--*Floating*
**[20:24] ---**
--The nanomachines for
immortality inside your body...
**[20:27] ---**
--*Carrying our feelings*
**[20:28] ---**
--I think they can be destroyed
if I send my nanomachines into your body.
**[20:33] ---**
N-No!
**[20:35] ---**
Stop!
**[20:36] ---**
I was finally able to
attain the power of a god!
**[20:40] ---**
I don't want to become a mortal again!
**[20:43] ---**
I'd rather die by your hands, Train!
**[20:46] ---**
Can't do that.
**[20:48] ---**
Live like a human,
bearing the burdens of mortal life...
**[20:52] ---**
in this world, which you
say is rotten to the core.
**[20:57] ---**
Live as a human being.
**[20:59] ---**
No!!
**[21:12] ---**
You really sure about this?
**[21:15] ---**
Do whatever you like...
**[21:17] ---**
Just take care of that fool.
**[21:23] ---**
Why didn't you stop them for me?
**[21:27] ---**
To tell you the truth,
**[21:29] ---**
I've always wanted you to stay just a human.
**[21:34] ---**
Because I was afraid
you'd go beyond my reach.
**[21:40] ---**
Let's go somewhere far and rest.
**[21:43] ---**
It's going to be all right.
**[21:45] ---**
I'll protect you.
**[21:50] ---**
Making him atone for his
sins with life rather than death.
**[21:55] ---**
That was your answer that you
came to, wasn't it, Heartnet?
**[22:08] ---**
What the...?!
**[22:10] ---**
What's going on?
**[22:15] ---**
The time has come to say goodbye.
**[22:18] ---**
That is all.
**[22:29] ---**
*Since your new black
boots caused a blister,*
**[22:36] ---**
*you rest your right foot*
**[22:43] ---**
*We'll keep walking along
with our own rhythm, without rushing*
**[22:56] ---**
*Don't say anything*
**[23:04] ---**
*because we'll soon understand each other*
**[23:11] ---**
*I'm just holding you now to keep you warm*
**[23:25] ---**
*I'm completely wrapped around you, so...*
**[23:35] ---**
*Quietly the powder-like
snow is building up...*
**[23:55] ---**
"Next Episode"
**[23:55] ---**
*The vicious battle has ended.*
**[23:58] ---**
*After putting an end to a long battle,*
**[24:00] ---**
*it looks like Train has
taken a load off his mind.*
**[24:03] ---**
*Sven, too... and the others as well.*
**[24:06] ---**
*They're all happy that
the world will become peaceful.*
**[24:10] ---**
*But I... feel as though
my heart is being squeezed tight.*
**[24:16] ---**
*Someone is...*
**[24:17] ---**
"The Lost Cat"
**[24:18] ---**
*calling me...*
