[00:32] ---
I thought I told you not to come in here!
[00:35] ---
Do you want that to happen to you?!
[00:39] ---
He's my child.
[00:42] ---
I will raise him by my own hand.
[01:02] ---
It's only natural that my parents feared
the unfortunate curse I had from birth
[01:09] ---
of breaking the tools I used.
[01:24] ---
All the books I enjoyed
crumbled as I read them.
[01:28] ---
And I hardly ever touched anyone.
[01:31] ---
I wonder what would have happened
if I'd handled someone like a tool.
[01:40] ---
Once counted among the richest in D'natia,
my family was headed to ruin before I knew it.
[01:53] ---
Shark.
[02:04] ---
I won't touch you, I promise.
[02:16] ---
When I lost my close friend,
that's when I finally understood...
[02:21] ---
Tools can be broken, and lives lost,
even if I don't come in contact with them.
[02:27] ---
That was what I took as truth in this world.
[02:37] ---
I heard rumors of the Clazzvali Family's fall.
[02:51] ---
His suffering should end on this island.
[02:55] ---
Are you referring to his
contract with Black Dragon?
[02:58] ---
So long as his bad habit doesn't surface...
[03:00] ---
Bad habit?
[03:03] ---
The name of this island is Nil Kamui.
[03:06] ---
The land where the great
and ancient country Kouran
[03:08] ---
and our homeland, D'natia,
are in conflict for supremacy.
[03:13] ---
Empire Era 285, September...
[03:17] ---
The great ancient country, Kouran...
[03:20] ---
...our country, D'natia...
[03:23] ---
...and the revolutionary army
representing Nil Kamui
[03:26] ---
came together to form
the Red Dragon expedition,
[03:29] ---
whose ranks I joined.
[03:33] ---
All so that I can part ways with my absurd fate.
[05:08] ---
Ogani Volcano
[05:13] ---
It's me! You remember me, don't you?!
[05:43] ---
Hien...
[05:45] ---
The Child of Contract...
[05:48] ---
Get a hold of yourself!
[05:49] ---
You're a mighty warrior of the Hyakki Force!
[06:00] ---
He's a Returned One now...
[06:04] ---
I will sacrifice anything in the
name of the one to become king.
[06:13] ---
Wait for me...
[06:24] ---
Let's hit it four times, shall we?
[06:29] ---
P? Shn!
[06:39] ---
What nectar, Lou!
[06:41] ---
Never before have I savored
such a soul as that.
[06:47] ---
That is quite pleasing to hear.
[06:51] ---
Izun...
[06:54] ---
Izun, can you hear me?!
[06:56] ---
I'm one of the Imperials, Ibuki!
[07:02] ---
Ibuki!
[07:16] ---
Are you really Izun...?
[07:31] ---
There...!
[07:33] ---
How's that?
[07:36] ---
What are you trying to do here?
[07:38] ---
Ibuki...
[07:40] ---
Uh, Sir Ibuki, was it?
[07:42] ---
I'm trying to buy him time so that
he can try to talk sense into him.
[07:45] ---
Once a person becomes a Returned One,
they will never regain their sanity.
[07:50] ---
So it is with Izun.
[07:53] ---
Um, what are you planning to do?
[07:57] ---
I will offer my life to
bring down the Stone Giant.
[08:02] ---
I don't think he'll comply with your wish...
[08:15] ---
I don't need to borrow
my lord's power for this!
[08:20] ---
Fng ZhÎn!
[08:32] ---
So that's the power of a Black Dragon Knight...
[08:52] ---
Ibuki!
[09:02] ---
Those kids still have room to grow.
[09:06] ---
They need to be protected by someone
until their time to break arrives.
[09:31] ---
Dragon | The dragons are the
primordial beings of this world.
[09:38] ---
What is this...?
[09:40] ---
My lord?
[10:05] ---
Lady Meryl...?
[10:08] ---
It was back when he was ten years old...
[10:12] ---
He insisted on a Mixed One as a slave.
[10:19] ---
Supposedly, Bounded Ones
and Mixed Ones didn't age...
[10:23] ---
...so they wouldn't break.
[10:25] ---
Or at least that's what he thought.
[10:30] ---
That Mixed One wasn't brought in as a slave,
but was instead adopted by a steward.
[10:42] ---
Years later, she was involved in a kidnapping,
which left her on the verge of death...
[10:53] ---
I see.
[10:57] ---
So, that peculiar phenomenon
of yours drew me here.
[11:03] ---
Do you wish to save her?
[11:06] ---
Yes!
[11:09] ---
If so, then I will shift her wounds onto you.
[11:21] ---
All things go to ruin without exception.
[11:24] ---
He knows that very well, and yet...
[11:30] ---
Such a bad habit...
[11:34] ---
Val!
[11:54] ---
Izun!
[12:19] ---
I'll absorb all that it has!
[12:38] ---
It's still full of life!
[12:41] ---
I'm truly sorry!
[12:42] ---
I will protect you, my lord!
[12:49] ---
Lou!
[12:56] ---
Izun...
[12:58] ---
I'll kill you...
[13:01] ---
I'll follow you shortly after.
[13:06] ---
If she keeps that up, Eykha will kill Izun...
[13:10] ---
Killing a friend...
[13:13] ---
No one else...
[13:16] ---
...needs to go through that!
[13:19] ---
Ibuki!
[13:22] ---
Hien!
[13:25] ---
He turned into a Returned One?!
[13:33] ---
Hien...
[13:35] ---
You too...?
[13:47] ---
Please kill me...
[13:50] ---
I'm sorry...
[13:52] ---
I'll offer you as a sacrifice to Red Dragon!
[14:03] ---
Hurry...
[14:04] ---
Red Dragon's power...
[14:07] ---
Hien...!
[14:08] ---
His sanity...
[14:09] ---
No, he wasn't a Returned One
in the first place?!
[14:13] ---
No...!
[14:14] ---
Then, those eyes were...?!
[14:21] ---
If I wasn't a Returned One...
[14:24] ---
...you would not have used my life, Lord Ibuki...
[14:31] ---
You are a kind person, after all...
[14:36] ---
What of Red Dragon...?
[14:40] ---
Hurry, the Stone Giant must be...
[14:46] ---
Red Dragon, the offering has been made.
[14:49] ---
Lend me your flames!
[14:54] ---
Finally, you will use... my life to...
[15:02] ---
Red Dragon! Your power!
[15:04] ---
Lend me your power!
[15:06] ---
Hien!
[15:07] ---
I offered Hien's life...!
I offered it to you just now!
[15:11] ---
Answer me!
[15:13] ---
Please answer me!
[15:19] ---
Ibuki, we need to get out of here!
[15:23] ---
Why...?
[15:25] ---
The Dragon Eye isn't shining...
[15:28] ---
That means...
[15:29] ---
...Hien's life isn't considered
to be an equivalent exchange.
[15:34] ---
I suppose that's the line of reasoning.
[15:37] ---
But...
[15:39] ---
I was told to offer those precious to me...
[15:46] ---
S-Sweallow...?
[15:49] ---
Don't worry... I've got something I need to do.
[15:54] ---
I knew Hien wasn't a Returned One...
[16:00] ---
None of the other
Returned Ones were moving at all.
[16:04] ---
But there was no way I could tell them
about the Black Dragon's Scale...
[16:09] ---
Because of that, Hien...
[16:13] ---
All of this is my sin to bear...
[16:17] ---
Months ago
D'natia | Clazzvali Family manor
[16:25] ---
Please don't touch.
[16:27] ---
At least let me get some tea.
[16:29] ---
No.
[16:30] ---
This mansion and all its belongings are
under seizure by the Sherbet Company.
[16:37] ---
I really appreciate it, my dear creditor.
[16:40] ---
You're about the only one to support
the bankrupt Clazzvali Family.
[16:46] ---
By the way, it's about time, Sir Sweallow.
[16:50] ---
Do I really have to go?
[16:56] ---
Oh, all right, I'll go...
[17:00] ---
Hours later...
D'natia | Shrine of the Black Dragon
[17:31] ---
I see.
[17:34] ---
I suppose it can be called
a curse of destruction.
[17:39] ---
It's exactly how you saw it, Black Dragon.
[17:42] ---
Do you wish to remove that curse?
[17:45] ---
If possible.
[17:47] ---
As you can tell, it's just absurd living with this.
[17:52] ---
You are aware that one of the Seven Dragons,
Red Dragon, resides in Nil Kamui, yes?
[17:59] ---
That one, Red Dragon, has gone mad.
[18:03] ---
I want you to join the combined
expedition among the three countries...
[18:07] ---
...and exterminate Red Dragon
with your very own hands.
[18:13] ---
Is that the condition placed
on the removal of my curse?
[18:16] ---
The scar placed upon you shall
again seal your contract with me.
[18:33] ---
This scar saved Meryl...
[18:38] ---
I have nothing else to say.
[18:40] ---
I appoint you, Sweallow Clazzvali,
to the Black Dragon Knights.
[19:00] ---
Contract seal, release!
[19:02] ---
I bring the tyranny of Black Dragon!
[19:13] ---
This power is supposed to be saved
for finishing off Red Dragon...
[19:19] ---
But this is my sin too...
[19:22] ---
Black Blade...
[19:27] ---
My contract and your curse are connected.
[19:32] ---
When differing powers of humans
and dragons come together as one...
[19:41] ---
Izun...!
[19:56] ---
I know of the Black Blade which
the Black Dragon Knights use,
[20:00] ---
but that is not quite the same...
[20:03] ---
I can't believe how graciously
he uses his swords to ruin...
[20:08] ---
I wonder how he would use me.
[20:11] ---
My lord...
[20:12] ---
My greatest joy is to offer all of the living
blood flowing within me to you, my lord...
[20:27] ---
Ibuki, are you okay?
[20:31] ---
I... couldn't kill Izun.
[20:35] ---
Ibuki?
[20:39] ---
I...
[20:41] ---
Hien...
[20:47] ---
It seems as if this is the clue that
my friend Red Dragon has left behind.
[20:52] ---
I suppose it's only fair that the
rights to it belong to Sweallow.
[20:59] ---
I recall an ancient legend saying
that only dragons can kill dragons.
[21:05] ---
Hello...
[21:08] ---
Excuse me, but it seems something
odd is happening in Haiga.
[21:12] ---
Haiga, you say?
[21:15] ---
Ah, um... Hello, Shaddy?
[21:18] ---
Ah, Lord Ka Grava!
D'natia's bishop is in the city, and...!
[21:23] ---
Why don't you send an image to me?
[21:26] ---
Ah, yes!
[21:28] ---
Behold, citizens of Nil Kamui!
[21:31] ---
The one you see here is the
true Imperial of Nil Kamui!
[21:35] ---
The one to become queen!
[21:37] ---
Lady Inori!
[21:41] ---
Inori?!
[21:42] ---
Do you know her?
[21:46] ---
She's...
[21:48] ---
...my younger sister.

[23:32] ---
Act 8: "Perfect Serenity."
[23:36] ---
Inori's return releases Ibuki from his fate.
[23:41] ---
Who is it that doesn't want that to happen?
