    THE TEAM BATTLE BEGINS
[01:50] ---
    Nova!
[01:52] ---
    I guess it was a good lesson.
[01:56] ---
    Here's a lesson to take with you.
[01:59] ---
    In this world,
    there's always someone stronger.
[02:03] ---
    Well... goodbye!
[02:06] ---
    Nova!
[02:08] ---
    At least die gloriously, you loser!
[02:12] ---
    No!
[02:25] ---
    You talk too much.
[02:27] ---
    But you were right about one thing.
[02:30] ---
    There's always someone stronger!
[02:36] ---
    Hyunckel!
[02:45] ---
    Maam! Big Guy!
[02:52] ---
    Rushing while carrying three was rough.
[02:55] ---
    You can rest for a while.
[02:58] ---
    -Crocodine!
    -Right!
[03:03] ---
    Yow, ow, ow!
[03:07] ---
    Be a little more gentle, Big Guy.
[03:11] ---
    Thank you! But be careful!
[03:14] ---
    They're really strong!
[03:18] ---
    So all the Disciples of Avan are here.
[03:21] ---
    I suppose we can't back down anymore.
[03:25] ---
    Look Dai.
[03:30] ---
    I impaled his head and he still lives.
[03:33] ---
    They really are just like Flazzard.
[03:36] ---
    They're metallic lifeforms
    made by Forbidden Magic.
[03:39] ---
    If we find their cores and use
    our Air technique, they can be defeated.
[03:46] ---
    That's right. We just need
    to find their cores!
[03:49] ---
    Don't bother searching!
[03:51] ---
    Our cores are right here!
[03:54] ---
    The same as you humans.
[03:56] ---
    Is he an idiot?!
    He just revealed their weakness!
[04:00] ---
    Knowing that won't help you can beat us.
[04:03] ---
    Just like you humans,
    it's meaningless if you can't hit it!
[04:08] ---
    This makes it five against five.
    We're evenly matched.
[04:11] ---
    As a reward for impaling me,
    let us show you...
[04:18] ---
    the true power of the Hadlar Royal Guard!
[04:21] ---
    Their confidence is almost terrifying.
[04:24] ---
    So what?!
[04:26] ---
    After all we've been through,
    our teamwork won't lose to those puppets!
[04:31] ---
    Maam, try to take care of that horse-head.
[04:35] ---
    Without his spell reflector,
    I can blow them all away
[04:39] ---
    with my Extreme Spell!
[04:42] ---
    Got it!
[04:47] ---
    I'll take the big one.
[04:51] ---
    Dai, which one is their leader?
[04:53] ---
    Hadlar isn't here, so that queen
    should be their leader.
[04:58] ---
    Got it.
[05:01] ---
    I'll be taking the armoured one, Albinass.
[05:05] ---
    You will not, Hym.
    You must take the Hero, Dai.
[05:09] ---
    What? You're telling me
    to just ignore what he did to me?
[05:13] ---
    I won't be happy
    until I impale his head, too!
[05:17] ---
    We are all pieces for Lord Hadlar.
[05:20] ---
    We live and die all for Lord Hadlar.
[05:24] ---
    Don't forget that.
[05:26] ---
    I guess I can't argue with that.
[05:28] ---
    If you're going to fight, revealing their
    strengths will better serve Lord Hadlar.
[06:39] ---
    Whoa!
[06:50] ---
    Very well, then!
[06:54] ---
    You've got to know when to switch gears!
[06:59] ---
    I'm taking the Hero!
[07:09] ---
    Frizz!
[07:16] ---
    That's it, Hym. Keep it up.
[07:22] ---
    Are you my opponent?
[07:25] ---
    How confident. You could have
    pierced my core from behind.
[07:30] ---
    Are you a woman?
[07:33] ---
    No need for concern.
[07:35] ---
    I am merely a piece
    bearing the role of queen.
[07:39] ---
    A piece has no gender.
    No need to hold back.
[07:43] ---
    You're pretty brave.
[07:44] ---
    But I think you underestimate us.
[07:48] ---
    That one must be a pawn.
[07:51] ---
    Did you think pitting the weakest piece
    against Dai would actually stop him?
[07:56] ---
    You're the one underestimating us.
[07:59] ---
    Excuse me, but I believe you're unfamiliar
    with the game of chess.
[08:05] ---
    In chess, there are no stronger
    or weaker pieces.
[08:09] ---
    There is only a difference in abilities.
[08:12] ---
    A pawn is not necessarily
    weaker than a queen.
[08:16] ---
    It's all in how you use it.
[08:18] ---
    Recognize your opponent's abilities
    and deploy your pieces accordingly.
[08:22] ---
    It's the basic strategy in chess
    to stop your enemy.
[08:32] ---
    Right there!
[08:33] ---
    If I can hit the heart with Air Slash...!
[08:38] ---
    Now!
[08:39] ---
    Avan Style Sword Technique! Air Slash!
[08:47] ---
    If you're using this knife against me,
    you still don't understand my power.
[08:53] ---
    Or is that thing on your back
    just a decoration?
[08:57] ---
    Well?!
[08:59] ---
    Dai!
[09:01] ---
    Hym is unmatched
    in close-quarters combat.
[09:06] ---
    Without your Hero, it seems
    you're the ones at a disadvantage.
[09:27] ---
    I can't shatter that shield.
[09:30] ---
    I need to stop his movements!
[09:32] ---
    For a human to attain such speed
    is quite a feat.
[09:37] ---
    The speed...!
[09:42] ---
    However...
[09:46] ---
    no one can eclipse my agility and speed!
[09:50] ---
    I appears that our piece placement
    was better than yours.
[09:55] ---
    Then I merely need to take out
    the queen who commands them!
[10:01] ---
    What?!
[10:02] ---
    It hardly bears mentioning,
    but I, too, am very strong.
[10:09] ---
    This is bad!
    They're controlling the battle!
[10:13] ---
    I need them grouped together,
    otherwise I can't cast my spell.
[10:18] ---
    What can we do?!
[10:19] ---
    And where did that pointy guy
    who was chasing me go?
[10:24] ---
    Right here!
[10:27] ---
    You're wide open!
[10:29] ---
    You bastard!
[10:34] ---
    My brand-new staff!
[10:36] ---
    Over 80% of my body is blades.
[10:39] ---
    I wouldn't suggest touching me.
[10:43] ---
    Get back! Don't touch me!
[10:45] ---
    Popp!
[10:47] ---
    Come on! You don't have time
    to be worried about others!
[10:53] ---
    Darn it!
[11:01] ---
    It won't come out!
[11:03] ---
    What a disappointment!
[11:08] ---
    Don't carry around a weapon
    that you can't even use!
[11:12] ---
    It appears that he hasn't yet
    mastered that sword.
[11:17] ---
    It seems that we need not bother
    summoning Lord Hadlar.
[11:22] ---
    Don't be so sure about that!
[11:28] ---
    Impossible! He actually hit me?!
[11:31] ---
    Unfortunately, we humans aren't pieces.
[11:35] ---
    Don't think you can
    approach this like a game.
[11:41] ---
    Sizz!
[11:45] ---
    Futile, futile!
[11:57] ---
    Everyone!
[11:58] ---
    Draw it. This is your last chance.
[12:04] ---
    At this rate, everyone is going to die!
[12:09] ---
    If I could draw my sword,
    I could defeat them easily!
[12:15] ---
    Darn it! Why won't it come out?!
[12:20] ---
    What a joke. You really can't draw it.
[12:23] ---
    You're not worth Lord Hadlar's time.
[12:26] ---
    My Heat Knuckle can easily shatter
    someone like you.
[12:34] ---
    Time to finish things.
[12:37] ---
    Don't worry. I'll take your head
    before you feel any pain.
[12:45] ---
    Nova?!
[12:48] ---
    Curse you, you feeble weakling!
[12:52] ---
    Quick! Give me your staff!
[12:56] ---
    It's over!
[13:07] ---
    Nova!
[13:08] ---
    Thank you for saving me, Nova!
[13:10] ---
    Don't bother thanking me.
[13:13] ---
    It's a Hero's duty to protect the weak.
[13:19] ---
    Don't worry. He's just unconscious.
[13:22] ---
    He exhausted himself
    by using up the last of his Aura.
[13:26] ---
    He fought to the very limit.
    He's tougher than I thought.
[13:33] ---
    To the very limit!
[13:39] ---
    REFRACTOR FIST
[13:44] ---
    DARK PUPPETRY AURA HAND
[13:52] ---
    It's no good!
[13:53] ---
    All this training and I couldn't
    draw my sword once!
[13:59] ---
    Hyunckel's already mastered
    the Dark Armour Spear...
[14:04] ---
    But I...
[14:05] ---
    I...
[14:06] ---
    Don't you get it, Dai?
[14:09] ---
    It's only natural.
    Of course you can't draw it.
[14:12] ---
    The Sword of Dai can't be unsheathed
    to face a retired warrior like me.
[14:18] ---
    If there's a reason that
    you can't draw your sword...
[14:23] ---
    it's in your inability
    to properly read your opponent.
[14:28] ---
    The issue is in you!
[14:31] ---
    It's... in me?
[14:37] ---
    That's it!
[14:38] ---
    Ever since I sliced that giant
    Sovereign Rock Castle,
[14:41] ---
    I've been unconsciously
    relying on the sword's power!
[14:46] ---
    I mistook the power I wielded
    with the sword as my own!
[14:51] ---
    But...
[14:52] ---
    my sword has its own soul.
[14:55] ---
    It can read my enemies
    far better than I can.
[15:00] ---
    I'd forgotten that!
[15:03] ---
    Only when I've fought to the limit
    with my own strength,
[15:08] ---
    will my sword lend its power to me!
[15:13] ---
    Nova, seeing you fight so desperately
[15:17] ---
    has made me understand
    what Lon Beruk tried to teach me.
[15:22] ---
    I guess we both have
    a lot to learn as Heroes.
[15:28] ---
    There's still a way!
[15:29] ---
    What's wrong, Dai?
[15:31] ---
    If I still can't draw my sword,
[15:33] ---
    it means there's still a way
    to defeat them without it!
[15:40] ---
    Dammit!
[15:47] ---
    You and your meddling!
    You'll pay for that!
[15:51] ---
    Full power Draconic Aura!
[16:02] ---
    Dai, knock Hym this way!
[16:04] ---
    That's right! I'm not the only one
    who can use Air attacks!
[16:08] ---
    Avan Style Spear Technique!
[16:10] ---
    Air Strike!
[16:14] ---
    Hym!
[16:17] ---
    Hyunckel!
[16:18] ---
    Great! That's one down!
[16:20] ---
    No.
[16:28] ---
    You still haven't mastered Air Strike?!
[16:32] ---
    It's true that it's not an easy skill.
[16:35] ---
    But the queen spit this out,
[16:38] ---
    shifting my aim from Hym's core.
[16:42] ---
    Without this, I could have ended it.
[16:44] ---
    It's instantly fatal
    depending on where you're hit.
[16:50] ---
    I'd suggest healing it quickly.
[16:53] ---
    Maam!
[16:54] ---
    Maam, we need you!
[17:02] ---
    Why you...!
[17:03] ---
    Everyone gather for a moment!
[17:07] ---
    Understood.
[17:13] ---
    Squelch.
[17:20] ---
    Damn. I can't lift my arm.
[17:23] ---
    -Fenbren.
    -Sure.
[17:33] ---
    That makes things easier.
[17:35] ---
    To be honest, I misjudged them.
[17:38] ---
    Sorry, Albinass.
[17:40] ---
    I did, too.
[17:42] ---
    The Disciples of Avan have grown far more
    powerful than what Lord Hadlar described.
[17:49] ---
    Our abilities surpass theirs.
[17:53] ---
    But their experience
    makes them relentless.
[17:56] ---
    They can't be underestimated.
[17:58] ---
    You should be okay, Hyunckel.
[18:00] ---
    Thanks.
[18:01] ---
    Hym is going to fight without an arm...
[18:05] ---
    Where do they get that tenacity?!
[18:08] ---
    Popp has a point.
[18:10] ---
    Their solidarity and sense of purpose
    are terrifyingly strong.
[18:14] ---
    But Dai, while I missed,
    you were on the right track.
[18:18] ---
    You still have your friends.
[18:20] ---
    Don't try to do everything yourself.
[18:25] ---
    I made my own discovery.
[18:27] ---
    Crocodine!
[18:28] ---
    Individually, their abilities
    are far beyond our own.
[18:33] ---
    We can't win fighting power
    with power or speed with speed.
[18:38] ---
    We should fight their strengths
    with different strengths.
[18:42] ---
    I get it.
    Matching their strengths is no good.
[18:47] ---
    Okay! Let's switch things up!
[18:49] ---
    Maam, confuse the big one with your speed.
[18:54] ---
    And Big Guy, use your strength
    to overpower the knight.
[18:58] ---
    Dai and Hyunckel, I need you to take
    the other three at once.
[19:02] ---
    Keep together as a team!
[19:06] ---
    I'm going to prepare my Medroa!
[19:09] ---
    Once the knight's mirror is disabled,
    try to gather them together!
[19:14] ---
    I'll be firing a huge spell,
    so get some distance!
[19:18] ---
    Got it?!
[19:18] ---
    Right!
[19:19] ---
    Here we go then!
[19:21] ---
    Beast King Redemption Blast!
[19:53] ---
    Okay!
[20:04] ---
    Pathetic!
[20:05] ---
    You can't beat me
    with an Aura Flow this weak!
[20:10] ---
    Then how about the other whirlpool?!
[20:13] ---
    What?!
[20:14] ---
    I risked my life
    in the Valge Whirlpool for this!
[20:17] ---
    My new attack will tear you apart!
[20:29] ---
    A second twister with a reverse spin?!
[20:42] ---
    Beast King Indomitable Blast!
[20:54] ---
    Sigma!
[20:58] ---
    Now! Everybody scatter!
[21:03] ---
    A spell won't work!
[21:05] ---
    No!
[21:06] ---
    Medroa!
[21:20] ---
    W-What power!
[21:22] ---
    That's worth bragging about.
[21:25] ---
    Well done learning such a spell.
[21:28] ---
    That's amazing, Popp!
[21:35] ---
    Popp!
[21:37] ---
    That was amazing!
[21:38] ---
    So that's what all that training was for!
[21:42] ---
    I did it!
[21:43] ---
    I definitely hit them this time.
[21:46] ---
    One good hit with that...
[21:58] ---
    and we win!
[22:04] ---
    Even if you face the devil
    With logic on your side
[22:04] ---

[23:34] ---
    The fierce team battle was ended
    by Popp's new spell, Medroa.
[23:40] ---
    Meanwhile, Chiu infiltrates
    the Field of Death with his companions.
[23:45] ---
    They get closer to the secret
    of the Dark Army's stronghold.
[23:48] ---
    But the hand of the Dark Army
    reaches towards them.
