[00:09] (Flashback) Gayus
    Shit...
[00:11] (Flashback) Gayus
    That bastard used me as a meat shield.
[00:19] (Flashback) Gayus
    A penniless, powerless, novice Jushikiist...
[00:24] (Flashback) Gayus
    I get used up, and that's it.
[00:28] (Flashback) Gayus
    This is bullshit.
[00:28] (Flashback) Gigina
    This is bullshit.
[00:30] (Flashback) Gigina
    Such a pathetic victory is a
    humiliation to the Draken people.
[00:35] (Flashback) Diorg
    It certainly hurt that we
    lost one of the rearguard.
[00:40] (Flashback) Diorg
    If only there were a good
    Jushikiist just lying around.
[00:44] (Flashback) Cuello
    They wouldn't be lying around if
    they were any good, Chief Diorg.
[00:49] (Flashback) Stratos
    Let's just up and die now.
[00:52] (Flashback) Diorg
    Hey, now, Stratos, we wouldn't
    want to lose even more men.
[00:57] (Flashback) Stratos
    Too bad.
[00:58] (Flashback) Stratos
    I'll think of another way to die, then.
[01:01] (Flashback) Gigina
    Diorg...
[01:03] (Flashback) Gigina
    I found some trash for you.
[01:05] (Flashback) Gigina
    Over there.
[01:11] (Flashback) Gigina
    But he looks to be dead already.
[01:14] (Flashback) Gayus
    Who are you calling trash, you peabrain?
[01:20] Gayus
    This happened back when I had
    slightly higher aspirations.
SIGN    And Yet, We...
[03:07] (Flashback) Gayus
    I did it.
[03:08] (Flashback) Gigina
    Fool!
[03:10] (Flashback) Gigina
    A rearguard who gets the front line hurt
    is even more dangerous than an enemy.
[03:14] (Flashback) Gigina
    We aren't amateurs here!
[03:18] (Flashback) Gayus
    You're just too slow to dodge, you slowpoke!
[03:22] (Flashback) Gigina
    All right, then.
[03:26] (Flashback) Gigina
    I have no use for an incapable rearguard!
[03:35] (Flashback) Gayus
    Cuello...
[03:37] (Flashback) Gigina
    I assume you don't value your life,
    if you're standing in front of a Draken's sword.
[03:42] (Flashback) Cuello
    I value my life.
[03:44] (Flashback) Cuello
    But I won't allow pointless
    killing on my watch.
[03:48] (Flashback) Cuello
    Never!
[03:48] (Flashback) Gigina
    Removing useless trash isn't pointless.
[03:53] (Flashback) Cuello
    That decision is up to Chief Diorg.
[03:56] (Flashback) Cuello
    As the chief isn't here,
[03:57] (Flashback) ---
    you'll be taking orders
    from the deputy chief—me.
[04:03] (Flashback) Gigina
    You really are an annoying woman.
[04:06] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'll take that as a compliment.
[04:10] (Flashback) Cuello
    Hey, where are you going?
[04:12] (Flashback) Gigina
    To the furniture shop.
[04:13] (Flashback) Gigina
    Don't talk to me for a while.
[04:16] (Flashback) Cuello
    Jeez.
[04:17] (Flashback) Cuello
    You were the one who picked him up.
[04:20] (Flashback) ---
    I don't care if he's a Draken or whatever.
[04:22] (Flashback) Gayus
    Warfare freaks like him ought to
    play with their toys in hell.
[04:29] (Flashback) Cuello
    Take a good look at what you've done.
[04:34] (Flashback) Cuello
    This is the result of your
    foolishness and arrogance.
[04:47] (Flashback) Gayus
    I hate Gigina.
[04:51] (Flashback) Gayus
    I'm fundamentally incompatible with him.
[04:54] (Flashback) Cuello
    Then you ought to make yourself compatible.
[04:57] (Flashback) Cuello
    Same goes for that attack earlier.
[05:00] (Flashback) Cuello
    You shouldn't have tried
    to fight on your own.
[05:02] (Flashback) Cuello
    You should have relied on Gigina's assistance
     or waited for my lightning Jushiki.
[05:07] (Flashback) Cuello
    You used a needlessly, excessively huge Jushiki
[05:10] (Flashback) ---
    just to show off your skills.
[05:15] (Flashback) Cuello
    Are you listening to me?
[05:17] (Flashback) Gayus
    Sorry.
[05:19] (Flashback) Gayus
    I do nothing but cause you grief
    because of my inexperience.
[05:24] (Flashback) Cuello
    It's not really grief.
[05:25] (Flashback) Gayus
    I was anxious.
[05:27] (Flashback) Gayus
    I couldn't keep dragging
    everyone down forever.
[05:31] (Flashback) Gayus
    If I don't make myself useful,
    I'll be abandoned again.
[05:35] (Flashback) Cuello
    We don't abandon our own.
[05:38] (Flashback) Gayus
    Cuello, please don't hate me.
[05:41] (Flashback) Cuello
    I don't hate you.
[05:43] (Flashback) Gayus
    Then...
[05:50] (Flashback) Gayus
    I've always wanted...
[05:53] (Flashback) Gayus
    to do this.
[05:55] Gayus
    To take advantage of a
    righteous bitch like you
[06:00] ---
    and then throw her out like scrap paper.
[06:05] (Flashback) Cuello
    What do you think you're doing?
[06:09] (Flashback) Gayus
    Do you happen to hate men?
[06:12] (Flashback) Cuello
    I like men.
[06:14] (Flashback) Cuello
    They make good Jushikiists.
[06:17] (Flashback) Cuello
    Especially if they're real men
    who won't try to act pathetic
[06:21] (Flashback) ---
    just to win a woman's pity.
[06:24] (Flashback) Gayus
    I'd never sleep with you.
[06:27] (Flashback) Cuello
    The feeling is mutual.
[06:29] (Flashback) Cuello
    I have no interest in men who
    are cowardly and weaker than me.
[06:40] (Flashback) Cuello
    Yes?
[06:41] (Flashback) Cuello
    Yes.
[06:42] (Flashback) Cuello
    Okay.
[06:43] (Flashback) Cuello
    Understood.
[06:45] (Flashback) Cuello
    What do I do?
[06:47] (Flashback) Cuello
    Stratos and the chief are out on business.
[06:50] (Flashback) Cuello
    And with Gigina's acting the way he is...
[06:52] (Flashback) Gayus
    What about me?
[06:54] (Flashback) Gayus
    What a cheap act.
[06:57] (Flashback) Cuello
    At least you get back on your feet quickly.
[07:00] (Flashback) Cuello
    So, do you have the guts to come with me?
[07:06] (Flashback) Cuello
    Our target today is Maslow Gossum.
[07:09] (Flashback) Gayus
    He's good-looking.
[07:11] (Flashback) Gayus
    Marriage fraud or something?
[07:12] (Flashback) Cuello
    A month ago, he attacked a jewelry store
    and killed two security Jushikiists.
[07:18] (Flashback) Cuello
    He made off with a hundred million
    yen's worth of merchandise.
[07:21] (Flashback) Cuello
    He was later arrested by Largonkin's men,
[07:25] (Flashback) ---
    but he escaped while
    out on bail awaiting his trial.
[07:27] (Flashback) ---
    All before he revealed
    the whereabouts of the stolen goods.
[07:31] (Flashback) ---
    He got bail after committing
    murder and robbery?
[07:34] (Flashback) Cuello
    Yeah.
[07:34] (Flashback) Cuello
    And to come up with that bail,
[07:36] (Flashback) ---
    he's borrowed an incredible amount
    of money from a bail bond agent.
[07:41] (Flashback) Gayus
    But if you flee,
    the court gets to keep the money.
[07:45] (Flashback) Gayus
    Does he hope to screw them over?
[07:47] (Flashback) Gayus
    That's why we were hired.
[07:50] (Flashback) Gayus
    Our client, the bond agent,
[07:52] (Flashback) ---
    requested that we capture Maslow before
    the police do, during his bail period.
[07:57] (Flashback) Cuello
    Of course, no killing him.
[07:59] (Flashback) Cuello
    The problem, though...
[08:00] (Flashback) Gayus
    Claymore...
[08:02] (Flashback) Gayus
    He's a chemical manipulation Jushikiist?
[08:04] (Flashback) Cuello
    He's skilled, too. A 10th-rank.
[08:08] (Flashback) Cuello
    Want out?
[08:09] (Flashback) Gayus
    N-No way.
[08:12] (Flashback) Gayus
    So what's the plan?
[08:14] (Flashback) Cuello
    First, we'll go through his past
    and figure out where he's hiding.
[08:18] (Flashback) Cuello
    We don't make a scene until then.
[08:25] (Flashback) Gayus
    One request and you sell out one of your own.
[08:29] (Flashback) Gayus
    What a time to be alive.
[08:30] (Flashback) Cuello
    Sadly, humans are ungrateful creatures.
[08:35] (Flashback) Gayus
    Well, that's how we managed
    to find him, though.
[08:39] (Flashback) Gayus
    I guess it's all good.
[08:41] (Flashback) Gayus
    Now we just have to catch him or kill him.
[08:46] (Flashback) Cuello
    I said no killing.
[08:48] (Flashback) Gayus
    More of your righteous talk?
[08:51] (Flashback) Gayus
    Killing is part of the business.
[08:55] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'll go in first and neutralize him.
[08:59] (Flashback) Cuello
    You're only to serve as my backup.
[09:03] (Flashback) Gayus
    I know.
[09:06] (Flashback) Cuello
    Pardon me.
[09:07] (Flashback) Cuello
    We're from the power company.
[09:09] (Flashback) Gayus
    We're here for an inspection.
[09:11] (Flashback) Gayus
    Is anyone home?
[09:15] (Flashback) Gayus
    He got away!
[09:20] (Flashback) Maslow
    Die!
[09:22] (Flashback) ---
    Shit!
[09:35] (Flashback) Cuello
    Stop!
[09:41] (Flashback) Cuello
    Shit.
[09:46] (Flashback) Cuello
    Gayus!
[09:48] (Flashback) Cuello
    Gayus!
[09:50] (Flashback) Cuello
    Hang in there, Gayus.
[09:54] (Flashback) Gayus
    Sorry... I caused you more trouble.
[09:58] (Flashback) Cuello
    Save your self-loathing
    and reflection for later.
[10:03] Gayus
    Huh? Am I...
[10:05] (Flashback) Cuello
    Stay conscious.
[10:07] Gayus
    ...going to die?
[10:08] (Flashback) Cuello
    Gayus!
[10:46] (Flashback) Cuello
    Oh jeez, you're awake?
[10:51] (Flashback) Gayus
    You didn't do anything to me
    while I was asleep, did you?
[10:54] (Flashback) Cuello
    Obviously not!
[10:58] (Flashback) Gayus
    Why did you save me?
[11:01] (Flashback) Gayus
    I ignored your orders.
[11:04] (Flashback) Gayus
    If I'd died, it would've been my own fault.
[11:07] (Flashback) Gayus
    You didn't have a reason to put
    yourself in danger just to save me.
[11:12] (Flashback) Gayus
    Between a 6th-rank like me
    and 11th-rank like you...
[11:16] (Flashback) Gayus
    Our lives don't have the same worth.
[11:21] (Flashback) Cuello
    Gayus, you must have been fighting
    in a really awful way until now.
[11:27] (Flashback) Cuello
    It's normal to put your own life
    on the line for the people on your team.
[11:31] (Flashback) Cuello
    That's our policy at Diorg Jushikiist Agency,
[11:34] (Flashback) ---
    and my own personal belief.
[11:37] (Flashback) Cuello
    You need to learn to believe in
    and depend on people a little, newbie.
[11:43] (Flashback) Cuello
    You don't need to be ashamed.
[11:45] (Flashback) Cuello
    I was dragging everyone down at first, too.
[11:49] (Flashback) Cuello
    I've gotten ahead of myself and screwed up.
[11:51] (Flashback) Cuello
    I've cried at how powerless I was.
[11:56] (Flashback) Cuello
    Right now's the time to learn.
[11:58] (Flashback) Cuello
    As long as you make yourself more
    useful over time, it's all right.
[12:03] (Flashback) Gayus
    Cuello...
[12:04] (Flashback) Cuello
    Yes?
[12:07] (Flashback) Gayus
    Thanks.
[12:10] (Flashback) Cuello
    Well, you can't stay in bed forever.
[12:14] (Flashback) Cuello
    I had the chief call Gigina in.
[12:17] (Flashback) Cuello
    We're headed for a rematch
    as soon as we meet up.
[12:20] (Flashback) Cuello
    I've already set up our information warfare.
[12:23] (Flashback) Gayus
    You're strong.
[12:25] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'm not strong.
[12:27] (Flashback) Cuello
    It still scares me that my enemies
    and I are trying to kill each other.
[12:32] (Flashback) Cuello
    But more than my own fear,
[12:35] (Flashback) ---
    my hatred for those who
    hurt others galvanizes me.
[12:40] (Flashback) Cuello
    I want to do what I can
    to protect the people I love.
[12:46] (Flashback) Cuello
    I don't want to kill my enemies
    if I can help it, either.
[12:50] (Flashback) Cuello
    It may sound like self-righteous hypocrisy,
[12:54] (Flashback) ---
    but even if I get laughed at,
    even if I'm mocked for it,
[12:59] (Flashback) ---
    I'll never waver in my belief.
[13:05] (Flashback) Gayus
    Cuello...
[13:07] (Flashback) Gayus
    The way I feel about you right now...
[13:14] (Flashback) Cuello
    The way he's ringing the bell,
    that must be Gigina.
[13:21] (Flashback) Gigina
    Oh.
[13:22] (Flashback) Gigina
    You're alive.
[13:24] (Flashback) Gigina
    You four-eyed loser.
[13:28] (Flashback) Cuello
    Die, dim-witted pigs!
[13:31] (Flashback) Cuello
    Speed!
[13:32] (Flashback) Cuello
    Everything is about speed!
[13:34] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'm the queen of speed!
[13:37] (Flashback) Gayus
    Gigina!
[13:39] (Flashback) Gayus
    Why didn't you stop her
    before she started driving?
[13:41] (Flashback) Gayus
    Cuello, calm down, please!
[13:42] (Flashback) Gayus
    Out of the way!
[13:44] (Flashback) Cuello
    Here comes the massacre demon
     of the mountain path!
[13:53] (Flashback) Gayus
    So, what's the strategy now?
[13:56] (Flashback) Gayus
    How do we find Maslow?
[13:57] (Flashback) Cuello
    It's simple.
[13:59] (Flashback) Cuello
    Maslow is likely on edge
    after the incident yesterday.
[14:02] (Flashback) Cuello
    Even if he isn't, high-dollar gems
    are hard to sell in this nation.
[14:07] (Flashback) Cuello
    In either case, the most
     certain course of action...
[14:10] (Flashback) Gigina
    Is to leave the country.
[14:13] (Flashback) Gigina
    But for a wanted man like Maslow
    to get through border security,
[14:19] (Flashback) ---
    he would need a fake passport.
[14:21] (Flashback) Cuello
    Correct.
[14:23] (Flashback) Cuello
    Remember how I said I'd set up
     our information warfare?
[14:26] (Flashback) Cuello
    Lay down the bait,
[14:28] (Flashback) ---
    and they'll come to get caught themselves.
[14:37] (Flashback) Maslow
    Where are you?
[14:38] (Flashback) Maslow
    I'm here with the passport money.
[14:43] (Flashback) Cuello
    You should have paid the
    forger some hush money.
[14:49] (Flashback) Cuello
    I doubt you'll get anywhere by resisting.
[14:54] (Flashback) Maslow
    Who do you think I am?!
[15:18] (Flashback) Cuello
    Gayus!
[15:26] (Flashback) Maslow
    You're weak.
[15:28] (Flashback) Maslow
    Go to hell, you four-eyed scrub!
[15:33] (Flashback) Gayus
    Are you trying to kill me, asshole?!
[15:35] (Flashback) Cuello
    Look out!
[16:08] (Flashback) Cuello
    Well then, now we just tie him up, and...
[16:13] (Flashback) Gayus
    Gigina?
[16:16] (Flashback) Gayus
    Wait, Gigina!
[16:19] (Flashback) Gigina
    Haven't I told you that if you stand in
    front of a Draken sword, you're dead?
[16:25] (Flashback) Gigina
    I'll kill any enemy who
    forces me to spill blood.
[16:28] (Flashback) Cuello
    There's something I can't give up, either.
[16:32] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'll tell you again.
[16:33] (Flashback) Cuello
    I won't let you kill anyone.
[16:37] (Flashback) Gigina
    Your beliefs are nothing but pretty words.
[16:41] (Flashback) Cuello
    Still, I have my pride.
[16:44] (Flashback) Cuello
    Just as you do.
[16:47] (Flashback) Cuello
    If this isn't enough blood for you...
[16:50] (Flashback) Gigina
    Don't bother.
[16:51] (Flashback) Gigina
    I don't have a need for your blood.
[17:04] (Flashback) Gigina
    Cuello, give me your arm.
[17:15] (Flashback) Gayus
    That's impressive.
[17:17] (Flashback) Cuello
    Gigina's a master of healing Jushiki.
[17:20] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'm fine now.
[17:22] (Flashback) Cuello
    Thanks.
[17:24] (Flashback) Gigina
    Your strength and intensity are
    worthy of a certain kind of praise.
[17:28] (Flashback) Gigina
    I'd like to fight you to the death someday.
[17:34] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'm just doing everything I can.
[17:37] (Flashback) Cuello
    I'll never become a heartless executioner.
[17:46] (Flashback) Diorg
    All right, everyone, get together.
[17:48] (Flashback) Diorg
    We're taking a picture
[17:50] (Flashback) ---
    to commemorate a successful mission
    and the addition of a new member to our team.
[17:55] (Flashback) Gayus
    Wh-Why is the chief all beat up?
[17:59] (Flashback) Gayus
    Wasn't he out for a meeting?
[18:01] (Flashback) Cuello
    Apparently, he got caught in an
    attempted suicide bombing by Stratos.
[18:06] (Flashback) Stratos
    I almost had it.
[18:08] (Flashback) Gigina
    Hurry up and take the picture, damn it.
[18:12] (Flashback) Diorg
    A little more to the left, Gigina.
[18:16] (Flashback) Diorg
    And raise your head a little, Stratos.
[18:19] (Flashback) Diorg
    Okay!
[18:20] (Flashback) Diorg
    Now, smile!
[18:26] (Flashback) Cuello
    Come on, look forward and smile.
[18:28] (Flashback) Cuello
    From now on, depend on us,
    and let us depend on you.
[18:36] (Flashback) Diorg
    All right. Here we go.
[18:49] Gigina
    You definitely need a shelf.
[18:52] Gayus
    Did you say something?
[18:53] Gigina
    You need a shelf to organize all of that.
[18:57] Gigina
    I know.
[18:58] Gigina
    I'll make you one.
[19:00] Gayus
    If you call that giant piece of trash
     you made a "shelf," no thanks.
[19:05] Gigina
    Are you mocking my beloved son Tarelk?!
[19:10] Gayus
    Yeah. Trash gives birth to trash.
[19:12] Gayus
    Now, help me out a little!
[19:13] Gigina
    How dare you, you toxic waste?!
[19:19] Gayus
    Let's not do this today.
[19:21] Gayus
    This is never going to get finished.
[19:26] Gigina
    It's not getting finished because you
    waste time reminiscing in silly memories.
[19:33] Gigina
    It seems Remedius died.
[19:36] Gayus
    I know.
[19:37] Gigina
    I see.
[19:40] Gayus
    After Dochetta's death,
    Urmun entered into a nasty civil war.
[19:46] Gayus
    The Dragon Empire deployed the military
    in the name of peacekeeping.
[19:50] Gayus
    But I doubt that man will
    do any more than that.
[19:56] Gayus
    So long as Urmun continues
    to churn in political turmoil,
[19:59] ---
    the Dragon Empire's economy stays stable.
[20:03] Gayus
    It's as rational a conclusion
    as you could reach.
[20:06] Gayus
    In the end, most of the people of Urmun
[20:09] ---
    never responded to the Aurora Hammer's call.
[20:12] Gayus
    After sporadic regional
    revolts and resistances,
[20:16] ---
    they, too, fell apart, and Remedius died...
[20:22] Gayus
    As the Man-Eating Dragon of the Sand, Zhuo Lu.
[20:26] Gayus
    His corpse, as it was found
    outside of the city, was decapitated.
[20:29] Gayus
    It's believed he was assassinated.
[20:35] Jiv
    Gayus, are you there?
[20:38] Jiv
    Come on, hurry up.
[20:40] Gayus
    Where are we going?
[20:42] Gayus
    To the seabird shop.
[20:44] Gayus
    I had us invited to Largonkin's
    welcome home party.
[20:49] Jiv
    Jabeira and Iegie are coming, too.
[20:53] Gayus
    Wait, does that mean we're...
[20:56] Gigina
    Do you never learn?
[21:00] Jiv
    I don't know what you're talking about.
[21:02] Jiv
    Never mind that...
[21:04] Jiv
    Crab!
[21:05] Jiv
    We're going to have crab!
[21:07] Gigina
    What the hell?
[21:08] Gigina
    Unhand me, woman.
[21:09] Jiv
    I'll do no such thing.
[21:11] Gayus
    The golden age has passed.
[21:15] Gayus
    The sky I saw then will never return.
[21:19] Gayus
    Still...
[21:21] Jiv
    Hurry, hurry!
[21:22] Gigina
    I'm never saying what I did again. Ever.
[21:23] Jiv
    I have a woman I love,
[21:27] ---
    and a partner who has my back.
[21:31] Gayus
    Beneath this sky is the world
    I both loathe and love.
[21:37] Gayus
    In which case...
[21:43] Jiv
    Gayus!
[21:45] Jiv
    Hurry up already!
[21:50] Gayus
    Yeah, I'm coming.
[21:54] Gayus
    I have all I need.
[21:56] Gayus
    Don't I?
