[00:00] ---
    The Black Army is a force of darkness
    that showed up without warning.
[00:05] ---
    Led by the Black King,
    it seeks to destroy the world.
[00:15] Allam
    You're Yuri of the Volunteer Army.
[00:28] Yuuri
    And you are?
[00:32] Allam
    I'm Aram.
[00:44] Yuuri
    Aram!
[00:45] Yuuri
    Is he dead?
[00:47] Michidia
    No way.
[00:48] Kain
    Marina, healing magic!
[00:50] Marina
    Right away.
[00:52] Yuuri
    It's all right.
[00:54] Yuuri
    He's just unconscious.
[00:57] Kain
    Man, don't scare me like that.
[00:59] Michidia
    Who is this kid?
SIGN    To Be With Others
[03:06] Eirenus
    So, they're headed for the Vice Capital.
[03:25] Allam
    Where am I?
[03:30] Yuuri
    You're awake.
[03:32] Allam
    What happened to the old lady and the rest?
[03:34] Yuuri
    They're all safe.
[03:35] Allam
    That's a relief.
[03:36] Yuuri
    The villagers said to thank you.
[03:40] Allam
    It was nothing.
[03:43] Allam
    You're Yuri, aren't you?
[03:46] Yuuri
    You've heard of me?
[03:54] Allam
    I heard you're the captain
    of the Volunteer Army.
[03:59] Phoena
    Oh, you're awake?
[04:02] Phoena
    Thank goodness you're okay.
[04:05] Phoena
    Oh, I'm Phoena.
[04:08] Phoena
    Nice to meet you.
[04:10] Allam
    Sure.
[04:11] Phoena
    Let's go eat.
[04:13] Phoena
    Kain and the others
    will be back from patrol soon.
[04:17] Yuuri
    Yeah.
[04:21] Phoena
    Here you go.
[04:21] Wayne
    Thanks.
[04:22] Michidia
    Here.
[04:23] Yuuri
    Yeah.
[04:27] Phoena
    Here.
[04:28] Aries
    Thanks.
[04:29] Kain
    Time to eat.
[04:35] Michidia
    What is it, Kain?
[04:38] Kain
    Ah... Is this...
[04:41] Marina
    Don't tell me...
[04:43] Michidia
    Phoena's cooking, isn't she?
[04:45] Phoena
    Eat up, everyone.
[04:53] Allam
    Seconds, please.
[04:56] Phoena
    Coming right up.
[04:58] Kain
    How can you eat Phoena's cooking?
[05:01] Allam
    What do you mean? It's great.
[05:03] Kain
    What do you usually eat?
[05:06] Allam
    Lizards.
[05:09] Phoena
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[05:11] Phoena
    Here you are.
[05:11] Phoena
    There's plenty more where that came from.
[05:16] Allam
    S-Sure.
[05:18] Yuuri
    Aram, you aren't from
    that village, are you?
[05:22] Allam
    No, I was just passing by.
[05:24] Yuriana
    You were trying to protect the village
    all by yourself?
[05:28] Allam
    I couldn't just let it be destroyed.
[05:30] Allam
    Besides, I can't stand those black things.
[05:33] Phoena
    You're pretty strong.
[05:35] Allam
    Y-Yeah.
[05:38] Allam
    But...
[05:39] Allam
    But I'm not good enough.
[05:41] Allam
    I want to get a lot stronger.
[05:47] Marina
    Phoena! The Chronicle!
[06:01] Wayne
    Your Highness!
[06:02] Michidia
    Phoena!
[06:06] Allam
    What's happening?
[06:13] Allam
    Look out!
[06:16] Kain
    Aram!
[06:18] Kain
    Are you all right?
[06:19] Allam
    Yeah.
[06:32] Yuuri
    Phoena.
[06:33] Yuuri
    Phoena!
[06:35] Phoena
    Thank you.
[06:41] Yuuri
    Looks like it's settled down.
[06:52] Allam
    Hey, what is that?
[06:55] Phoena
    The Chain Chronicle.
[06:58] Phoena
    A chronology of everything about the world.
[07:03] Phoena
    If the world is stained black,
    so will the Chronicle.
[07:06] Phoena
    And vice versa.
[07:09] Allam
    That can't be...
[07:12] Phoena
    More pages have been stained black.
[07:22] Black King
    The darkness spreads further.
[07:29] Black King
    Have you still not located the sprite?
[07:33] Eirenus
    Was it not killed in the last battle?
[07:38] Black King
    The world has yet to fall into ruin.
[07:41] Phoena
    Then...
[07:42] Yuuri
    Yeah.
[07:43] Yuuri
    Pirika is still alive somewhere.
[07:46] Allam
    Pirika?
[07:47] Yuriana
    One of our friends. A sprite.
[07:49] Yuriana
    Tiny and cute.
[07:51] Yuriana
    Pirika has a foul mouth at times,
    but is very important to this world.
[07:56] Phoena
    Pirika is the will of the world,
    a world with hope for the future.
[08:00] Yuuri
    We have to find and save it.
[08:05] Black King
    Find her and dispose of it.
[08:08] Black King
    So long as that sprite exists,
    the world cannot be destroyed.
[08:27] Allam
    What's up?
[08:28] Yuuri
    Can we talk?
[08:31] Yuuri
    Aram, why do you want to become stronger?
[08:35] Allam
    Why?
[08:37] Allam
    Because you can't do anything
    if you're weak, obviously.
[08:41] Yuuri
    I see.
[08:44] Yuuri
    Aram, why don't you join us?
[08:52] Allam
    No, I'm not gonna join the Volunteer Army.
[08:55] Allam
    I'd rather be my own man. Free.
[08:57] Yuuri
    There's only so much you can do by yourself.
[09:00] Allam
    That's not true.
[09:01] Allam
    I've fought alone my entire life.
[09:04] Yuuri
    But it's not as if you've never lost, is it?
[09:07] Yuuri
    There must have been times
    when you had to run from your opponent.
[09:11] Allam
    Well...
[09:12] Allam
    I'll be able to beat them someday.
[09:15] Yuuri
    What if you were just lucky?
[09:19] Allam
    What would you know?
[09:21] Allam
    You lost even with your buddies.
[09:24] Yuuri
    That's exactly why I'm asking.
[09:26] Yuuri
    Aram, hear me out...
[09:38] Aries
    The highway ahead seems to have
    escaped the blackening earlier.
[09:42] Yuriana
    Thank goodness.
[09:44] Yuriana
    We'll depart at dawn.
[09:46] Yuriana
    For the Vice Capital.
[09:57] Michidia
    That's...
[10:00] Yuriana
    Hurry!
[10:15] Silva
    Don't let a single one of them through!
[10:26] Teresa
    This is too easy.
[10:38] Dusty
    I stock only the best weapons.
[11:03] Silva
    Dammit.
[11:15] Silva
    Yuri!
[11:16] Silva
    Yuri!
[11:17] Silva
    It's good to see you.
[11:19] Silva
    You, too, Princess.
[11:20] Yuuri
    Sorry to worry you.
[11:22] Yuriana
    Status?
[11:23] Silva
    The southern bridge has fallen.
[11:24] Silva
    The outer wall is, well,
    you can see for yourself.
[11:28] Silva
    Aludra's defending the castle walls
    by the slums, but...
[11:45] Silva
    New recruit? Kid's got spirit.
[11:48] Yuuri
    Yes.
[12:00] Yuuri
    We'll handle things here.
[12:02] Silva
    Got it. I'm counting on you.
[12:04] Silva
    All right! We're going to go help Aludra out!
[12:14] Kain
    There are so many of them.
[12:16] Kain
    What do we do, Captain?
[12:17] Yuuri
    What else?
[12:18] Yuuri
    We take 'em down!
[12:19] Kain
    You got it!
[12:20] Yuriana
    Let's finish this!
[12:22] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[12:27] Allam
    Don't forget me!
[12:34] Allam
    More of them?
[12:51] Allam
    Piece of cake.
[12:53] Burkchardt
    You...
[12:55] Burkchardt
    You took my mana again!
[12:56] Allam
    Wh-What?
[13:01] Wayne
    Burckhardt!
[13:04] Burkchardt
    We'll discuss this later.
[13:05] Allam
    Ow...
[13:06] Allam
    Man, what's his problem?
[13:09] Yuuri
    Let's do this!
[13:39] Yuuri
    Seize the light!
[13:53] Allam
    W-Wow.
[13:57] Kain
    We did it.
[13:58] Yuuri
    Yeah.
[13:59] Allam
    Hey!
[14:01] Allam
    That was amazing!
[14:03] Kain
    I-I guess.
[14:04] Kain
    That was our chain attack.
[14:07] Kain
    Chaining attacks makes them more powerful.
[14:10] Michidia
    And to do that,
    we need all our mana to resonate.
[14:13] Allam
    I want to try.
[14:16] Kain
    I think it might be a bit soon for you.
[14:18] Allam
    Why?
[14:19] Allam
    I can practice.
[14:20] Yuuri
    Aram, it isn't that easy.
[14:24] Yuuri
    You need strong bonds
    with your allies to pull it off.
[14:29] Allam
    Bonds?
[14:30] Burkchardt
    You're wasting your time.
[14:32] Allam
    What?!
[14:33] Burkchardt
    You understand nothing of battle.
[14:36] Burkchardt
    You just fight mindlessly,
    thinking of no-one but yourself.
[14:40] Allam
    What? I have my own way of fighting—
[14:43] Burkchardt
    And I'm telling you it's all wrong.
[14:45] Burkchardt
    What exactly are you, anyway?
[14:47] Burkchardt
    I don't know how you did it,
    but you stole my mana.
[14:51] Allam
    S-So what?
[14:53] Burkchardt
    Humans shouldn't be capable of
    meddling with others' mana.
[14:57] Burkchardt
    There's too much about you we don't know.
[14:59] Allam
    Shut up!
[15:00] Allam
    You're just jealous that you can't do it!
[15:03] Burkchardt
    This is getting nowhere.
[15:04] Burkchardt
    It's clearly a waste of time trying to
    explain things to a feral brat like you.
[15:09] Allam
    I'm not here because I want to be!
[15:11] Allam
    If you don't want me around, I'll just leave.
[15:13] Allam
    I'll become stronger my own way!
[15:16] Yuuri
    Aram!
[15:17] Burkchardt
    Let him go.
[15:19] Burkchardt
    Don't be so undisciplined as to
    allow that fool to have his way.
[15:23] Burkchardt
    Why do you not realize that
    being so soft only makes you weak?
[15:27] Yuuri
    Aram has potential.
[15:30] Burkchardt
    Do you honestly believe that?
[15:33] Yuuri
    That's why I brought him all the way here.
[15:37] Yuuri
    He'll make a good soldier.
[15:44] Wayne
    Looks like the boss has appeared.
[15:55] Allam
    Dammit.
[15:58] Kain
    Not this fog again!
[16:00] Michidia
    Let's go again.
[16:01] Marina
    The fog just gets thicker.
[16:03] Marina
    I can't...
[16:08] Kain
    Captain!
[16:11] Yuuri
    D-Don't worry. I'm fine.
[16:14] Burkchardt
    Protect Her Highness!
[16:24] Yuuri
    Aram, hear me out.
[16:27] (Flashback) Yuuri
    When I lost to the Black King,
    I also lost faith in myself.
[16:32] (Flashback) Yuuri
    But seeing you fight
    so desperately in that village
[16:36] (Flashback) Yuuri
    reminded me of something important.
[16:40] (Flashback) Yuuri
    I had sworn I would never give up,
    no matter what.
[16:46] (Flashback) Allam
    Wh-What's any of this got to do with me?
[16:49] (Flashback) Yuuri
    When I came to, my friends were at my side.
[16:54] (Flashback) Yuuri
    They'd supported me.
    They never gave up on me.
[16:58] (Flashback) Yuuri
    Some obstacles can't be overcome alone.
    They require a little help from your friends.
[17:03] (Flashback) Yuuri
    That is the power of bonds.
[17:05] (Flashback) Yuuri
    Aram, you are indeed strong.
[17:09] (Flashback) Yuuri
    You're better at using mana than anyone else.
[17:14] (Flashback) Yuuri
    But, with bonds of friendship,
    you can become even stronger.
[17:21] (Flashback) Yuuri
    Let us fight together.
[17:30] Allam
    You idiot.
[17:35] Marina
    We can't hold out any longer.
[17:37] Michidia
    We have to!
[17:41] Yuriana
    Wayne!
[17:42] Wayne
    Stay back, Your Highness.
[17:44] Yuriana
    I can fight.
[17:48] Burkchardt
    Your Highness!
[18:01] Burkchardt
    Your Highness...
[18:04] Kain
    Burckhardt!
[18:17] Phoena
    Aram!
[18:35] Kain
    Y-You've gotta be kidding me.
[18:39] Michidia
    Amazing.
[18:45] Allam
    Hey, take this!
[19:00] Allam
    We're even now.
[19:03] Yuriana
    Burckhardt!
[19:05] Yuriana
    Let's end this.
[19:07] ---
    As you wish!
[19:24] Burkchardt
    Know your place!
[19:48] Allam
    Whoa. He's pretty good.
[19:52] Kain
    Look at you. Coming back to steal the show.
[19:55] Yuuri
    Aram.
[19:59] Allam
    I figured I might as well
    stick around a bit longer.
[20:04] Allam
    I want to see more of
    your techniques in action.
[20:07] Allam
    Besides...
[20:09] Allam
    I want to make him eat his words.
[20:15] Yuuri
    That's fine.
[20:24] Yuuri
    Everyone, there's something I need to say.
[20:27] Yuuri
    I lost to the Black King once.
[20:31] Yuuri
    He said that destruction is
    the fate that awaits this world.
[20:37] Yuuri
    But, even if that's true,
    I don't want to give up.
[20:41] Yuuri
    As long as we live, there's hope.
[20:45] Yuuri
    So I'd like to form
    a Black King Suppression Squad,
[20:52] Yuuri
    once more.
[20:54] Yuriana
    A Black King Suppression Squad?
[20:55] Yuriana
    That won't be enough.
[20:57] Yuriana
    We'll gather troops from
    every corner of the land
[21:00] Yuriana
    and form a Black King Suppression Army.
[21:04] Kain
    Yuri's back to his old self.
[21:06] Kain
    That's my captain.
[21:08] Michidia
    Someone thinks pretty highly of himself.
[21:12] Phoena
    Yuri, I'm so glad.
[21:17] Yuuri
    Aram.
[21:22] Allam
    All right, fine.
[21:29] Yuuri
    Aram, your arm.
[21:44] Yuriana
    You should give him a chance.
[21:45] Yuriana
    He returned your mana, after all.
[21:49] Burkchardt
    Excuse me.
[21:53] Yuriana
    Sheesh.
[22:07] Yuriana
    Burckhardt!
[22:09] Yuriana
    Burckhardt!
SIGN    Symbol of Loyalty
[23:46] ---
    Fate is set in motion.
