**[00:08] ---**
Here's your bread for today.
**[00:10] ---**
Yeah.
**[00:11] ---**
What a gruff reply.
I'm used to it by now though.
**[00:15] ---**
What's wrong, Hiyori?
**[00:17] ---**
You're grinning.
**[00:18] ---**
Oh, it's nothing.
**[00:20] ---**
You sure?
**[00:21] ---**
I really feel for you, Hiyori,
being this guy's apprentice.
**[00:25] ---**
I never made her my apprentice.
**[00:27] ---**
Whatever, just hurry up and eat.
We'll be late for school.
**[00:31] ---**
It's not like we're always late.
**[00:33] ---**
We're always cutting it close
because of you, geez.
**[00:37] ---**
*The days I spent with Master and Sakura
were such happy times.*
**[00:42] ---**
*I've been chasing after that ever since.*
**[00:46] ---**
*And now I've finally made it here.*
**[00:49] ---**
*Master!*
**[02:27] ---**
#22 choice
**[02:37] ---**
Bring it, Hiyoko.
**[02:39] ---**
Here goes!
**[02:40] ---**
Accept. Chakaur, Avatar of Victory.
**[02:44] ---**
Attack the player!
**[02:48] ---**
My turn. Energy Set...
**[02:51] ---**
End of turn.
**[02:53] ---**
Master.
**[02:56] ---**
Accept. Grave, Avatar of Slaughter.
**[02:59] ---**
Attack the player again!
**[03:01] ---**
Quick Command. Sorcerer's Scheme.
**[03:04] ---**
Decrease Grave's power by 6,000.
**[03:08] ---**
I'm counting on you, Chakaur.
**[03:10] ---**
Just like you saved Kikka, this time,
I'm going to save you, Master.
**[03:16] ---**
What a fool you are.
**[03:22] ---**
I'm the king of Neo Kyoto now.
I'm going to carry out my mission.
**[03:27] ---**
I'm not looking for any help.
**[03:29] ---**
But...
**[03:31] ---**
What I want are the resources
that are necessary for Neo Kyoto.
**[03:35] ---**
All you need to do is lose.
**[03:37] ---**
Accept. Ambition Eater.
**[03:40] ---**
Devour her lives.
**[03:46] ---**
No way!
**[03:48] ---**
Shot Trigger.
**[03:50] ---**
ELIMINATE IRRATIONALITY
**[03:52] ---**
Command. Eliminate Irrationality.
**[03:55] ---**
I'm shackling Ambition Eater,
and drawing one card.
**[03:59] ---**
End of turn.
**[04:01] ---**
So pointless.
**[04:02] ---**
Just like everything
you've been doing until now.
**[04:05] ---**
It wasn't pointless.
**[04:08] ---**
I just want to go back to the time
that I spent with you and Sakura.
**[04:14] ---**
Weren't those happy days for you, too?
**[04:22] ---**
Those are extremely old,
meaningless memories.
**[04:27] ---**
For who I am now...
**[04:29] ---**
For Neo Kyoto, they have no purpose.
**[04:41] ---**
Heaven's net casts wide. Though its meshes
are coarse, nothing slips through.
**[04:44] ---**
Exorcise evil with your holy flames!
**[04:47] ---**
Accept. Palhadora, Avatar of Sacred Fire.
**[04:54] ---**
Territory. Build Arise.
**[05:00] ---**
Blazing Holy Shrine!
**[05:03] ---**
Chakaur!
**[05:05] ---**
Attack Ambition Eater!
**[05:09] ---**
Palhadora. Attack the player!
**[05:12] ---**
Why would you say
it's meaningless, Master?
**[05:21] ---**
What's wrong with calling
an impossible dream meaningless?
**[05:28] ---**
Sending all living beings into chaos.
Repeating death and rebirth.
**[05:34] ---**
Accept. Bloom, Soul Wager.
**[05:45] ---**
Bloom.
**[05:47] ---**
Territory. Build Arise.
**[05:54] ---**
Casino of Fate.
**[05:58] ---**
Activating my Territory's ability.
**[06:01] ---**
That place you're dreaming of...
You won't find me there.
**[06:06] ---**
Sakura's not there, either.
**[06:08] ---**
Sakura is gone now.
**[06:11] ---**
Sending two cards
from my deck to the Cemetery.
**[06:14] ---**
If there are zero Buster Cards,
I'll destroy one of your units.
**[06:19] ---**
If there's one Buster Card,
my lives will be erased.
**[06:22] ---**
If there are two,
I’ll destroy all units except for Bloom.
**[06:35] ---**
Accept reality.
**[06:38] ---**
Activating Bloom's ability.
**[06:41] ---**
Removing six cards from the Cemetery
into infinite darkness.
**[06:45] ---**
Resurrect yourself from the darkness...
**[06:47] ---**
Pallene, Lord of Retribution.
**[06:50] ---**
Slash away all reckless hopes.
**[07:08] ---**
*Master.*
**[07:30] ---**
*Master won't be coming back here.
And Sakura's gone now.*
**[07:36] ---**
*My dream won't come true.*
**[07:39] ---**
I knew that all along. But still...
**[07:44] ---**
It was you who gave me hope
so that I could chase after my dreams.
**[07:50] ---**
So why?
**[08:06] ---**
What's going on?
**[08:08] ---**
Why? No! Don't disappear!
**[08:16] ---**
This sound... A heartbeat?
**[08:21] ---**
Master?
**[08:22] ---**
Master!
**[08:27] ---**
Hiyoko?
**[08:29] ---**
Master!
**[08:31] ---**
What?
**[08:40] ---**
Master!
**[08:45] ---**
*Look after Teruto for me.*
**[08:56] ---**
DIVINE MESSENGER
**[08:58] ---**
Shot Trigger.
**[09:00] ---**
This sound is coming from
inside that thing.
**[09:05] ---**
*The word “king” referred
to the human sacrifice that Lady Kikka was,*
**[09:10] ---**
*and it also referred to the main server
that powers Neo Kyoto.*
**[09:15] ---**
*So that's the king. Then that means...*
**[09:18] ---**
*What I just saw now was the real...*
**[09:24] ---**
Command. Divine Messenger.
**[09:27] ---**
Checking the top three cards of my deck,
**[09:29] ---**
and summoning one Attribute,
Holy Soldier unit.
**[09:34] ---**
What's the matter, Hiyoko?
**[09:37] ---**
Do you like bread?
**[09:40] ---**
What did you say?
**[09:42] ---**
Please answer me.
**[09:43] ---**
I told you. Other than Neo Kyoto,
there's nothing that means anything to me.
**[09:49] ---**
Okay. I see.
**[09:52] ---**
Selecting Palhadora.
**[09:54] ---**
Burn once again.
**[09:56] ---**
Palhadora!
**[10:00] ---**
My turn. Draw.
**[10:01] ---**
RETURN OF THE SETTING SUN
**[10:03] ---**
Accept. Raziyah, Avatar of the Sunstorm.
**[10:07] ---**
Master, you loved bread and Build-Divide.
**[10:11] ---**
You had no interest in the city.
**[10:14] ---**
But now you're saying
everything but Neo Kyoto is meaningless.
**[10:18] ---**
There's just no way
you'd ever say something like that.
**[10:22] ---**
You're a fake.
**[10:24] ---**
Raziyah, attack Bloom!
**[10:29] ---**
End of turn.
**[10:31] ---**
A fake, huh?
**[10:34] ---**
Activating my Territory's ability.
**[10:37] ---**
Then who am I, exactly?
**[10:40] ---**
The main server that Rinpu told us about...
**[10:44] ---**
When I saw Master in the darkness...
**[10:47] ---**
And the truth about this city...
**[10:50] ---**
You're the control system
for the virtual city, Neo Kyoto.
**[10:54] ---**
The actual king, aren't you?
**[10:57] ---**
Aren't you?
**[11:00] ---**
One Buster Card!
**[11:03] ---**
So you're the one
who just had unauthorized access, huh?
**[11:09] ---**
Command. Dimensional Window.
**[11:12] ---**
Returning Bloom
to my hand from the Cemetery.
**[11:15] ---**
Accept. Ambition Eater.
**[11:17] ---**
Pallene, demolish her lives!
**[11:25] ---**
I am the king.
**[11:27] ---**
Along with Neo Kyoto, I'm going to continue
this irreversible expansion and augmentation.
**[11:33] ---**
That's my mission. That's my wish.
**[11:38] ---**
I am...
**[11:40] ---**
The king of Neo Kyoto!
**[11:43] ---**
Expand Neo Kyoto!
**[12:01] ---**
Accept. Chakaur. Attack Pallene!
**[12:05] ---**
Block! Ambition Eater!
**[12:07] ---**
Not done yet. Raziyah,
launch a Two-Hit Attack on the player!
**[12:11] ---**
And now I'm activating Raziyah's ability.
**[12:14] ---**
At Chakaur's expense,
I'm returning Pallene to your hand.
**[12:17] ---**
Blast away!
**[12:23] ---**
Smolder, Palhadora!
**[12:25] ---**
Attack the player!
**[12:29] ---**
Who are you?
**[12:31] ---**
What makes you think that your wish
will be granted when you're not even king?
**[12:36] ---**
Activating my Territory's ability.
**[12:39] ---**
Your wish will never come true.
**[12:42] ---**
Buster Cards... Zero.
**[12:45] ---**
I'm going to destroy one of your units!
**[12:53] ---**
Raziyah.
**[12:54] ---**
Submit to the king's rule!
**[12:56] ---**
Accept. Bloom.
**[12:58] ---**
Oh no!
**[12:59] ---**
Activating her ability.
**[13:01] ---**
Excavate the graves of my servants.
**[13:03] ---**
Endive, Mad Bishop.
**[13:06] ---**
Endive has a Two-Hit Attack.
If that goes through, I won't make it.
**[13:09] ---**
Do it!
**[13:11] ---**
Quick Command. Eliminate Irrationality!
**[13:16] ---**
End of turn.
**[13:19] ---**
*Three lives left.*
**[13:21] ---**
*As long as Bloom is out,
there's always a chance of sudden death.*
**[13:26] ---**
Give up. Your wish
will never be granted, no matter what.
**[13:31] ---**
Not now, or in the future.
**[13:38] ---**
When you're in battle, you always enjoyed
having your back against the wall.
**[13:42] ---**
You never gave up.
**[13:45] ---**
And I'm not giving up, either.
**[13:48] ---**
*Please make me your apprentice!*
**[13:55] ---**
I'm your apprentice, Master.
I'm Hiyori Munenashi!
**[14:04] ---**
Draw.
**[14:06] ---**
I haven't lost yet.
**[14:09] ---**
Accept. Raziyah.
**[14:12] ---**
There's no turning back now.
**[14:14] ---**
*I'll eliminate Endive
with Raziyah's ability.*
**[14:17] ---**
*If I draw a Burst Trigger, I can win.*
**[14:20] ---**
*But if it doesn’t...*
**[14:22] ---**
*Endive will emerge from the Cemetery
during the next turn, and I'll lose.*
**[14:26] ---**
*Should I focus on defense
by using Raziyah as my blocker?*
**[14:29] ---**
*Or should I go for an all-out attack?*
**[14:33] ---**
*This is the same thing that happened
when I battled Master for the first time.*
**[14:38] ---**
*That day, I lost because
I hesitated on attacking.*
**[14:42] ---**
*If you can't put your soul
on the line, you can't win.*
**[14:46] ---**
Master would never be afraid!
**[14:49] ---**
My mind's made up.
Using Raziyah to attack the player!
**[14:52] ---**
Activating her ability during the attack.
**[14:54] ---**
Destroying one of my own
Holy Soldiers. Target is...
**[15:02] ---**
SOUL'S WORTH
**[15:02] ---**
RETURN OF THE SETTING SUN
**[15:03] ---**
A flower petal?
**[15:07] ---**
Master would...
**[15:10] ---**
I would...
**[15:13] ---**
Decide for yourself
what it is that you enjoy the most.
**[15:17] ---**
Target of Raziyah's ability, none!
**[15:22] ---**
Just proceed with the attack.
**[15:23] ---**
Endive, block it.
**[15:26] ---**
It's not just about defending,
and it's not just about attacking.
**[15:29] ---**
I'm going to carve out my own path!
**[15:33] ---**
Using Palhadora to attack the player!
**[15:36] ---**
Send your light towards Master!
**[15:38] ---**
Master!
**[15:40] ---**
Hiyoko!
**[15:48] ---**
My turn. Activating my Territory's ability.
**[15:52] ---**
It's over for you. Become my resource!
**[15:54] ---**
Zero Buster Cards. Destroy Palhadora!
**[15:57] ---**
No you don't!
**[15:58] ---**
Quick Command. Return of the Setting Sun.
**[16:01] ---**
Returning Palhadora to my hand.
**[16:05] ---**
You think you've stopped me?
**[16:07] ---**
Bloom.
Summon your pawn once again, Endive.
**[16:11] ---**
I won't let that get through either.
Quick Command. Soul's Worth.
**[16:16] ---**
Removing Endive from the Cemetery.
**[16:18] ---**
She'll lose her target,
and her ability will be erased.
**[16:24] ---**
Stop interfering!
**[16:25] ---**
Neo Kyoto will for all eternity,
forever and ever...
**[16:30] ---**
It will continue to expand endlessly!
**[16:33] ---**
Accept. Paralsite, Possessed Malice,
as well as Pallene.
**[16:37] ---**
Paralsite will attack the player.
**[16:41] ---**
And Pallene, you will protect the king.
**[16:46] ---**
I knew it, you're a fake.
**[16:49] ---**
The real Master gave me hope
to chase after my dreams.
**[16:54] ---**
I know that I can never
go back to those days.
**[16:58] ---**
But...
**[16:59] ---**
As long as I continue battling,
no one can stop me from dreaming!
**[17:07] ---**
Draw.
**[17:09] ---**
I got it. Command. Sword of Reasoning!
**[17:13] ---**
Eliminate Paralsite,
whose cost is under five.
**[17:18] ---**
Don't you dare defy me!
**[17:21] ---**
Before you disappear,
let me say one thing.
**[17:25] ---**
Don't use someone else's power
to achieve your dreams!
**[17:29] ---**
Those are Master's powers!
**[17:31] ---**
Accept! Palhadora!
**[17:34] ---**
Hiyoko!
**[17:38] ---**
Raziyah!
**[17:40] ---**
Blast away all of the nightmares in sight!
**[17:43] ---**
I will never disappear.
**[17:45] ---**
Activating Raziyah's ability.
**[17:48] ---**
At Palhadora's expense,
I'm eliminating Pallene!
**[17:54] ---**
No! I don't want to disappear!
**[17:57] ---**
I'll be the one to decide my own path!
**[18:01] ---**
Let me expand!
**[18:28] ---**
The holy flames burn away the past,
and become the seeds of birth.
**[18:33] ---**
And those seeds will bud,
and new flowers will bloom.
**[18:38] ---**
As long as you don't extinguish
the will to make them bloom yourself,
**[18:41] ---**
your dreams will never end.
**[18:52] ---**
Master!
**[18:59] ---**
Hiyoko.
**[19:01] ---**
Are you yourself again?
**[19:03] ---**
Yeah.
**[19:08] ---**
Thanks to you.
**[19:10] ---**
Master.
**[19:13] ---**
You got a lot stronger, huh?
**[19:20] ---**
Yes!
**[19:24] ---**
Oh, but it's not just me.
**[19:28] ---**
Sakura, too.
**[19:50] ---**
Good job.
**[19:58] ---**
At least, that's what I'd normally say.
**[20:01] ---**
But really, making your apprentice
go through all that.
**[20:05] ---**
Hey, I'm talking to you, Teruto!
**[20:09] ---**
Sakura?
**[20:11] ---**
That's right.
**[20:13] ---**
The real one?
**[20:14] ---**
Yes.
**[20:21] ---**
Sakura!
**[20:27] ---**
- Sakura!
- There, there. You did great, Hiyori.
**[20:33] ---**
I thought I'd never see you again.
I almost gave up.
**[20:38] ---**
But I really didn't want to.
**[20:40] ---**
I know. I was listening.
No one can stop you from dreaming.
**[20:46] ---**
That was lovely.
**[20:48] ---**
And now I'm seeing you again.
**[20:54] ---**
Sakura.
**[20:55] ---**
Teruto.
**[20:57] ---**
It's been a while
since we last talked like this.
**[21:00] ---**
How can you...
**[21:03] ---**
That's right. Sakura, how...
**[21:06] ---**
That.
**[21:08] ---**
I was inside that thing, too,
for the last three years.
**[21:13] ---**
I've been watching Teruto resist
and fight back against the program.
**[21:17] ---**
Is that right?
**[21:19] ---**
Really. Good job.
**[21:32] ---**
Thanks. You did me a favor
by clearing away that broken program.
**[21:38] ---**
Hiyori Munenashi.
**[21:40] ---**
And good day, Teruto Kurabe, Sakura Banka.
**[21:45] ---**
I'm so happy to see you again.
**[21:48] ---**
That's...
**[21:50] ---**
So he showed up, huh?
**[21:52] ---**
Higuma!
**[21:57] ---**
TO BE CONTINUED
**[23:30] ---**
This is a spell.
I'm going to open up your paths.
**[23:33] ---**
I am now going to get my wish granted.
**[23:36] ---**
Call. Bloom.
**[23:36] ---**
