[00:11] ---
Ibuki!
[00:15] ---
Why didn't you call me earlier?
[00:17] ---
Wait, Eykha!
[00:19] ---
That's Gakusho!
[00:23] ---
Eykha!
[00:25] ---
Val, again!
[00:34] ---
Is she really dead?
[00:48] ---
Are you certain this was Gakusho's unit?
[00:52] ---
It seems they were headed to Ogani Volcano.
[00:55] ---
What happened...?
[00:57] ---
Subleader!
[00:58] ---
We found one of the villagers.
[01:00] ---
A Returned One... did all this...
[01:03] ---
Many villagers escaped to our fort saying
that they were attacked by Returned Ones.
[01:09] ---
That's why we came to investigate.
[01:11] ---
Please tell me... Did the Returned Ones
really appear in your village?
[01:16] ---
It's not only our village...
[01:17] ---
What?
[01:18] ---
Kouran's general was killed...
[01:21] ---
She took a hit to the neck...
[01:23] ---
General...?
[01:24] ---
Could it be...? Lady Gakusho?
[01:27] ---
Then she revived...
[01:29] ---
As a Returned One?
[01:31] ---
The general killed everyone,
and then they all revived too!
[01:36] ---
It's exactly like what happened in my village!
[01:38] ---
I've never heard of any instance
[01:40] ---
where those killed by a
Returned One became Returned Ones.
[01:43] ---
So, where could Lady Gakusho
and her unit of Returned Ones be?
[01:50] ---
The name of our country is Nil Kamui.
[01:52] ---
It's a small island country.
[01:54] ---
The covetous, great ancient country
of Kouran conducted a sudden invasion
[01:59] ---
and plundered a third of the land.
[02:02] ---
Our ally, the great country to the east, D'natia,
[02:05] ---
defended settlements where they
had their bases, then kept silent.
[02:09] ---
The two great countries quickly
carved away Nil Kamui's lands
[02:12] ---
like meat from a sacrificial swine.
[02:16] ---
The guardian deity,
Red Dragon, attacked the people,
[02:19] ---
and the Returned Ones
of legend began to appear.
[02:23] ---
Imperial Era 3015, September...
[02:26] ---
Our country was no longer ours.
[04:09] ---
You all right?!
[04:15] ---
Is that the Kouran general?
[04:17] ---
What happened?!
[04:29] ---
Are you okay, Ibuki?
[04:59] ---
Hm, even if they are undead,
destroying their brain seems to stop them.
[05:05] ---
Pretty good, aren't you?
[05:29] ---
Everyone, I recommend we retreat for now.
[05:35] ---
Gakusho!<br>[05:36] ---
Ibuki!
[05:39] ---
Ibuki, it seems you took a liking to Gakusho,
despite getting to know her only recently.
[05:46] ---
She... taught me the true meaning of resolve!
[05:50] ---
But look at her.
[05:52] ---
She's a Returned One now.
[05:55] ---
There are no instances within legend of any
Returned Ones regaining their former selves.
[06:02] ---
That means that the only thing we can do
for her now is to make her rest in peace.
[06:08] ---
Don't worry, I'll do it.
[06:13] ---
We can't just defeat her and leave it at that!
[06:29] ---
I do recall this flavor...
[06:33] ---
It's similar to that of a dragon.
[06:36] ---
So, the Returned Ones and Red Dragon...
[06:39] ---
...are probably connected.
[06:41] ---
Don't worry, Lou.
[06:43] ---
Returned Ones wounded
by me will never revive.
[06:47] ---
After all, whatever residual souls
remain of them are contained within me.
[06:51] ---
Yes, my lord...
[06:53] ---
That wound on her neck proves
that Gakusho was killed by someone.
[06:58] ---
Killed...? But why?
[07:00] ---
Not "why," but "Who was able to kill
someone so skilled as Gakusho?"
[07:08] ---
Red Dragon...
[07:11] ---
Answer me...!
[07:15] ---
Gakusho was someone precious to me...
[07:19] ---
Someone who could have become my friend.
[07:21] ---
Thus, she can be taken as an offering.
[07:25] ---
Indeed.
[07:26] ---
Do you seek power, Imperial?
[07:29] ---
I want to use your dragon flame to
incinerate the person who killed Gakusho!
[07:34] ---
Are you going to kill Gakusho again
to kill the person who killed her?!
[07:40] ---
This is the only thing I can do now...!
[07:43] ---
Oh...? Quite an interesting
idea he came up with.
[07:48] ---
Is the dragon's power that versatile?
[07:52] ---
The Returned Ones are
connected to Red Dragon.
[07:55] ---
In that case, I wager that Red Dragon knows
that you were the one who killed Gakusho.
[08:02] ---
I don't mind taking on that wager,
[08:07] ---
but I would lose the means to please
my lord if I were incinerated.
[08:15] ---
My flames will reach any,
no matter where they are.
[08:19] ---
Understood. Accept the equivalence!
[08:25] ---
At this distance, I can kill him
using my Bai Bu Quan.
[08:29] ---
There's no telling what
could happen, after all...
[08:33] ---
How unfortunate, Child of Contract...
[08:38] ---
Lady Ulrika.
[08:40] ---
Report on the expedition.
[08:42] ---
It seems as if one of them,
the Kouran female...
[08:45] ---
...is targeting the expedition members,
in an attempt to kill...
[08:48] ---
Members...?!
What is going on?! Answer me!
[08:54] ---
Looks like you were too focused
to sense his presence.
[09:27] ---
I am sorry to have arrived so late, my lord.
[09:30] ---
Hien...?
[09:34] ---
Yes, it is I, Hien.
[09:36] ---
Agito has ordered me to guard you again.
[09:41] ---
Gakusho...
[09:42] ---
How dare she try to take our Child of
Contract's life using the truce as a cover?
[09:51] ---
You idiot!
[09:52] ---
Wh-What are you saying?
[09:55] ---
Gakusho...
[09:57] ---
Gakusho was...
[09:59] ---
...a friend.
[10:01] ---
Nonsense!
[10:03] ---
Please stand up, Lord Ibuki.
[10:05] ---
Our citizens would misunderstand if they
saw you kneeling with your head down
[10:08] ---
over the corpse of one from Kouran.
[10:10] ---
Hien, you can't be friends with Ibuki.
[10:14] ---
Friends?
[10:16] ---
I'm merely a loyal subject
of the Child of Contract.
[10:22] ---
Returned One | Legendary beasts of mythology
that were said to have laid waste to Nil Kamui.
[10:28] ---
D'natia territory | Fort Rosweisse
[10:31] ---
Excuse me for calling you all here.
[10:34] ---
Sorry, but the fort houses
a lot of military secrets,
[10:39] ---
so we can't let the revolutionary
army or Kouran see its insides.
[10:43] ---
Why, of course.
[10:47] ---
Lady Lou Chun Wah?
[10:49] ---
Yes?
[10:50] ---
By any chance, did you meet
one of my subordinates?
[10:53] ---
One of them is currently missing.
[10:56] ---
I heard there is an item used in
D'natia that allows communication
[10:59] ---
with someone from afar, similar to
Kouran's communication seal...
[11:03] ---
He didn't respond...
[11:05] ---
That must be quite troubling...
[11:07] ---
Unfortunately, I don't know anything.
[11:14] ---
Gakusho and her unit weren't
the only Returned Ones?
[11:18] ---
There were many villages scattered
around the foot of Ogani Volcano.
[11:22] ---
They were attacked by Returned Ones,
[11:24] ---
and those attacked in turn
became Returned Ones themselves.
[11:27] ---
In the first place, where did
the Returned Ones appear from?
[11:31] ---
According to the villagers,
[11:33] ---
the first Returned Ones to appear
wore the revolutionary army's attires.
[11:39] ---
Are you trying to place blame on us?
[11:41] ---
Wait.
[11:43] ---
Were they from the first expedition...?
[11:46] ---
Yes. I heard that a unit
from the revolutionary army
[11:49] ---
headed to Ogani Volcano about a month ago.
[11:54] ---
Everyone rose as Returned Ones...?
[12:04] ---
What's this about, Ka Grava?
[12:06] ---
If that's true, that means the Returned Ones
are those who were killed by Red Dragon.
[12:12] ---
So you think my friend's message about leaving
something at Ogani Volcano is questionable?
[12:18] ---
Even so, we have to go to Ogani Volcano...
[12:21] ---
One moment. I must inform you
[12:24] ---
that the Black Dragon Knights' third
corps leader, Simeon, is headed this way.
[12:28] ---
Simeon...?!
[12:30] ---
Oh?
[12:31] ---
So, that...
[12:33] ---
Uh, who is that again?
[12:35] ---
He's the leader of the Black Dragon
Knights who were sent to this island.
[12:39] ---
He's third in rank among
the Black Dragon Knights.
[12:41] ---
Ah, and what was my rank again?
[12:44] ---
Why, the lowest of them all, of course.
[12:47] ---
You're ranked thirtieth.
[12:50] ---
No matter what happens, our leader
Simeon can make things right.
[12:54] ---
That's some faith you have in him.
[12:56] ---
Yes. So please leave the rest to us.
[13:05] ---
Are you still going to go to Ogani Volcano?
[13:08] ---
I'm sorry, but I don't want to see
any more people become like Gakusho.
[13:15] ---
Well then, at least let my unit accompany you.
[13:19] ---
Ulrika...
[13:20] ---
I believe I was sent to
protect this island's order.
[13:25] ---
I can't turn my head away from
the suffering of its citizens.
[13:28] ---
Lord Ibuki.
[13:36] ---
I know of your power, Lord Ibuki.
[13:39] ---
Hien...
[13:40] ---
Please kill me near Simeon!
[13:44] ---
Are you telling me to incinerate
Simeon with the dragon's power?
[13:47] ---
That flame will become a beacon to spread
the revolution throughout the land!
[13:51] ---
All in the name of ousting D'natia and Kouran!
[13:56] ---
I won't kill you or Simeon.
[14:00] ---
Also, Hien... You and everyone else
are getting this all wrong.
[14:06] ---
No matter what I do to you,
nothing will happen.
[14:10] ---
Lord Ibuki, you can offer the
citizens of Nil Kamui to Red Dragon
[14:15] ---
to gain the dragon's power.
[14:17] ---
That's not it, Hien.
[14:19] ---
Lord Ibuki, you are too kind.
[14:23] ---
A part of me died when I lost my family--
my young sister--during the Seven Year War.
[14:31] ---
No one will be saddened by my death.
[14:34] ---
Having my life taken by the Child of Contract
is the one and only happiness left to me.
[14:39] ---
Please, use my life as you see fit!
[14:42] ---
That's not the issue...!
[14:44] ---
Ibuki? Hien?
[14:46] ---
It looks like they're ready.
[14:47] ---
Okay...
[14:51] ---
Stop with your discourtesy, Kouran!
[14:54] ---
Oh?
[14:55] ---
In every respect, Lord Ibuki
is the successor to the throne.
[14:58] ---
I ask that you treat him as such!
[15:00] ---
How rude of me.
[15:03] ---
"Lord" Ibuki... was it?
[15:07] ---
Ogani Volcano | Mountain path
[15:15] ---
Lord Ibuki.
[15:17] ---
Did Hien tell you to call me that?
[15:20] ---
Please stop.
[15:21] ---
Really? How about we take the middle
ground and call you "Sir Ibuki"?
[15:28] ---
Meryl told me you said that if you killed
Gakusho, you could incinerate the culprit.
[15:34] ---
Not me, but Red Dragon.
[15:36] ---
So then in exchange for someone's life,
you can gain the dragon's power to--
[15:40] ---
Why don't we drop the
subject already, Sir Sweallow?
[15:44] ---
You knew, didn't you, Lou?
[15:46] ---
Why, of course not.
[15:48] ---
Such a frightening thought...
[15:49] ---
I see...
[15:51] ---
I think I know why you called it a curse.
[15:53] ---
You mind if I ask you something?
[15:56] ---
Do you really want to get rid of that power?
[15:59] ---
But you're going to become
Nil Kamui's king, right?
[16:03] ---
If so, that power may be
something you need as king.
[16:07] ---
A friend of mine died trusting in me...
[16:11] ---
That's why I want to become king,
so that I can put an end to sorrow.
[16:15] ---
But...
[16:17] ---
I don't know what I need to do...
[16:19] ---
I see.
[16:21] ---
In any case, I'm for the idea of
getting rid of that power of yours.
[16:25] ---
Why, yes... After all, that power
is a major threat to D'natia.
[16:30] ---
Is that how you see it?
[16:37] ---
There was a village here, but...
[16:40] ---
The place is just a pool of lava now.
[16:47] ---
Look...!
[16:48] ---
No matter how you take this...
[16:52] ---
...it sure doesn't look like they're
survivors waiting to be rescued.
[16:56] ---
Men, forward!
[16:58] ---
Hey now, what are you planning to do, Hien?
[17:02] ---
We will handle the Returned Ones.
[17:04] ---
Leave us be!
[17:05] ---
What are you saying?!
[17:07] ---
It seems like most of them
were from the revolutionary army.
[17:11] ---
We will deliver our friends by our own hands.
[17:14] ---
Hien!
[17:15] ---
Please move on ahead, Child of Contract!
[17:18] ---
And please pray for their
calm and eternal slumber.
[17:25] ---
Rest in peace, friends!
[17:37] ---
Well then, let's graciously accept his offer.
[17:41] ---
After all, we are supposed to be
an expedition for Red Dragon.
[17:54] ---
It is Izun...
[17:57] ---
Izun?
[17:59] ---
Izun is in there?
[18:04] ---
Now then, everyone, what should we do?
[18:07] ---
We do have the option of leaving this place
[18:09] ---
and letting Leader Simeon
take care of the rest.
[18:12] ---
Sir Sweallow...
[18:14] ---
Oh, come on, we're not going to stand
a chance against that huge thing!
[18:19] ---
I agree with you this time.
[18:22] ---
We can't take any risks that
could jeopardize Ibuki or Eykha.
[18:26] ---
Right?
[18:27] ---
I'm staying behind.
[18:29] ---
Eykha...
[18:30] ---
Izun would probably want me to kill him.
[18:34] ---
Besides, look over there.
[18:37] ---
That's...?
[18:38] ---
I believe it's Red Dragon's claw.
[18:41] ---
Izun fought Red Dragon by himself to save us.
[18:46] ---
So that must have lodged itself there then.
[18:48] ---
I see... So my friend left behind...
[18:52] ---
Oh, it looks like that claw is still alive.
[18:56] ---
By that, you mean...?
[18:57] ---
There is way more life energy
[18:59] ---
contained in Red Dragon's claw and
that giant than in any normal person.
[19:04] ---
This is a first for me as well.
[19:07] ---
So then...?
[19:08] ---
Feed me...!
[19:10] ---
As you wish.
[19:12] ---
Let's attack it from both sides.
[19:15] ---
I can cross the lava to the other side.
[19:18] ---
I will attack from behind.
[19:20] ---
We'll go from the front.
[19:22] ---
Before we strike...
[19:24] ---
...please let me confirm whether
or not Izun has really lost his sanity.
[19:29] ---
Ibuki...
[19:30] ---
It's possible that he still has his sanity
despite becoming a Returned One.
[19:37] ---
Got it.
[19:39] ---
Lou...
[19:40] ---
Sweallow...
[19:42] ---
Please help!
[19:44] ---
Well, I'll just try to stop it, then.
[19:51] ---
Is stopping it your only plan?
[19:53] ---
If I can move to a dead angle,
I can hide you from their sight, my lord.
[19:57] ---
Ah, I see...
[19:58] ---
I suppose you're serious about feeding me.
[20:10] ---
Meryl, hand it over...
[20:13] ---
I believe you may have forgotten,
so I'll say it once more.
[20:17] ---
This will disrupt the order of this island--
[20:27] ---
Ahem...
[20:28] ---
Well then, let us both head in from the front.
[20:32] ---
No, Lady Ulrika.
[20:34] ---
I'd like to ask you to take care of Meryl.
[20:36] ---
Please watch us from behind.
[20:39] ---
It's not that I'm underestimating
a newcomer such as yourself, but...
[20:42] ---
I know you're strong.
[20:44] ---
That's why I'd like you to stay behind.
[20:47] ---
And when we reach our limit, I'd like you
to at least have those children escape.
[20:55] ---
In the end, Sir Sweallow isn't attached to me.
[20:59] ---
To him, what needs to
be protected is the future.
[21:03] ---
Are you saying you're willing to offer
your life for the expedition's mission?
[21:09] ---
You know, it was the first time
someone asked me for help.
[21:16] ---
Keep one thing in mind.
[21:17] ---
Do not place trust in that nun, Lou.
[21:22] ---
Don't worry. I'm used to
being tricked by females.
[21:28] ---
Quite a fine master you have there.
[21:31] ---
He's... just a good-for-nothing.
