THE INSIGNIA OF AVAN
**[01:52] ---**
Sizzle!
**[02:06] ---**
Sir Avan!
**[02:12] ---**
Is everyone alright?
**[02:16] ---**
Thank goodness.
Talk about very nice timing.
**[02:20] ---**
Master!
**[02:23] ---**
I didn't think he had the strength.
**[02:28] ---**
Master, are you okay?
**[02:31] ---**
I'm in a lot of pain.
But I don't have time for that now.
**[02:35] ---**
He's more powerful than
when he was the Dark Lord.
**[02:39] ---**
Not only that, he has
the Dark King backing him.
**[02:45] ---**
Our enemy is far beyond my expectations.
**[02:49] ---**
With our current strength...
**[02:53] ---**
we can't win.
**[02:54] ---**
But...!
**[02:55] ---**
That's why he...
Hadlar, the Dark Commander...
**[03:00] ---**
must be brought down here.
**[03:03] ---**
And Dai, Popp...
**[03:07] ---**
I ask that someday you two
defeat Vearn, the Dark King!
**[03:19] ---**
I underestimated you.
Well done, Avan, the Hero.
**[03:23] ---**
Wait...
**[03:25] ---**
Master, do you intend to die?!
**[03:27] ---**
Master, I'll fight with you!
**[03:31] ---**
Kaclang!
**[03:35] ---**
W-What's this?!
**[03:36] ---**
It's Kaclang!
**[03:38] ---**
Kaclang?!
**[03:39] ---**
It's a high-level defensive spell
**[03:42] ---**
that turns the body to steel
and repels any magical attack!
**[03:47] ---**
But if we're like this...
**[03:49] ---**
We can't move!
**[03:52] ---**
You should all be safe now.
**[03:54] ---**
You may watch my final battle from there.
**[03:59] ---**
By "final," you mean...!
**[04:01] ---**
Don't do this! I'll fight!
Together with you!
**[04:05] ---**
How foolish, Avan. To spend your remaining
Magic Power on your students.
**[04:24] ---**
Oh! Those are...!
**[04:26] ---**
Insignias of Avan!
Certificates of graduation!
**[04:29] ---**
Graduation?!
**[04:31] ---**
I give these to students
I believe are fully trained.
**[04:35] ---**
Dai, you possess outstanding potential.
**[04:43] ---**
I regret our training was cut short
at three days.
**[04:47] ---**
If we continued for the remaining four...
**[04:50] ---**
I'm certain you could have become a Hero.
**[04:54] ---**
Master Avan!
**[04:55] ---**
That is why I give this to you.
**[04:58] ---**
Continue with your training
and become a true Hero.
**[05:02] ---**
Master, I...!
**[05:06] ---**
Popp.
**[05:07] ---**
Don't!
**[05:10] ---**
Don't do it, Master! I don't want that!
**[05:13] ---**
Stop being so morbid!
Our training isn't over yet!
**[05:20] ---**
Popp...
**[05:21] ---**
I don't care if you were the Hero once!
Why are you doing all this?!
**[05:26] ---**
You said yourself you can't beat him!
**[05:30] ---**
It's because I can't beat him
that I must risk my life.
**[05:36] ---**
Besides, Popp,
**[05:38] ---**
I believe the power we gain through
training should be used to help others.
**[05:44] ---**
Perhaps my power was granted to me
by the gods to protect you on this day.
**[05:51] ---**
Don't do this, Master!
**[05:54] ---**
Someday I know you will understand.
**[05:57] ---**
So, hold onto this
for when that day comes.
**[06:02] ---**
Master!
**[06:04] ---**
Master!
**[06:05] ---**
Oh my. You haven't officially graduated
and you're already so emotional.
**[06:12] ---**
You'll need to work much, much harder
to become Heroes worthy of those.
**[06:20] ---**
Mr. Brass and Gomechan,
thank you for everything.
**[06:25] ---**
Sir Avan, don't do anything rash!
**[06:28] ---**
Don't worry. I will not lose.
**[06:38] ---**
Done saying goodbye to your students?
**[06:41] ---**
Let us fight, Hadlar!
**[06:45] ---**
Very well.
**[06:46] ---**
But having used your last Magic Power
to cast Kaclang has sealed your fate.
**[06:52] ---**
You've spent most of
your Magic Power, too!
**[07:13] ---**
Here goes!
**[07:22] ---**
Fool!
**[07:24] ---**
As we stand...
**[07:27] ---**
even with just combat skills...
**[07:30] ---**
I have more than enough...
**[07:33] ---**
power to...
**[07:34] ---**
tear you...
**[07:37] ---**
apart!
**[07:49] ---**
Master!
**[07:50] ---**
Move! Move!
**[08:10] ---**
Die, Avan!
**[08:19] ---**
You...!
**[08:27] ---**
A spell?! Impossible!
**[08:30] ---**
You should be out of Magic Power!
**[08:33] ---**
This spell requires
very little Magic Power.
**[08:36] ---**
Instead, it turns life energy
into explosive power to defeat enemies!
**[08:43] ---**
Wait! This spell is...!
**[08:48] ---**
Stop! Don't do it!
**[08:53] ---**
You'll die! It'll kill you too, Avan!
**[08:56] ---**
Do you want that?!
**[09:03] ---**
Popp, Dai! I leave the rest to you!
**[09:07] ---**
Stop!
**[09:15] ---**
Megante!
**[09:48] ---**
Master!
**[09:50] ---**
Sir Avan used the spell Megante.
**[09:53] ---**
Megante?
**[09:55] ---**
He used the final destructive spell
that uses his own life to save his allies.
**[10:02] ---**
Sir Avan, you truly are...
**[10:05] ---**
Master used his own life to protect us.
**[10:11] ---**
Master...
**[10:16] ---**
SIZZLE
HEAT-TYPE SPELL
**[10:21] ---**
KABOOM
EXPLOSION-TYPE SPELL
**[10:28] ---**
Is that Master?!
**[10:37] ---**
Hadlar?!
**[10:41] ---**
No! Where's Master?!
**[10:54] ---**
You truly have grown weak, Avan!
**[10:57] ---**
You used your own life to cast Megante,
and you still couldn't defeat me!
**[11:05] ---**
Now there is nothing left to fear!
The Dark Army is unopposed!
**[11:11] ---**
He truly is a monster!
**[11:14] ---**
No way...
**[11:20] ---**
Curse you, Avan.
**[11:30] ---**
I need to wipe out your students
here and now.
**[11:38] ---**
Don't worry! The effects of
Sir Avan's Kaclang still remain!
**[11:44] ---**
It will repel any attack!
**[11:47] ---**
Don't be so sure.
**[11:48] ---**
Having you immobile is perfect.
**[11:54] ---**
Huh?!
**[11:55] ---**
He can use Frizz, too?!
**[11:57] ---**
My Frizz is pure hellfire.
It will burn until my target is destroyed.
**[12:03] ---**
I simply cast it, and the moment your
Kaclang wears off, you'll turn to ashes!
**[12:09] ---**
Don't! Please don't!
**[12:11] ---**
You should be happy.
When you die, you can go to the afterlife.
**[12:16] ---**
Your precious master is there,
waiting for you.
**[12:22] ---**
*That's right! Master did it for us!*
**[12:26] ---**
*He gave his life so we could survive!*
**[12:31] ---**
*If we die here,
then what did he sacrifice himself for?!*
**[12:44] ---**
*I have my life
because Master gave it to me!*
**[13:00] ---**
*What?! Is he going to
break the Kaclang on his own?!*
**[13:08] ---**
*What is he?!*
**[13:16] ---**
He broke the Kaclang!
**[13:18] ---**
You brat! Burn to death!
**[13:23] ---**
Kafrizz!
**[13:26] ---**
Kacrack!
**[13:37] ---**
Dai used magic?!
**[13:38] ---**
And it's stronger than mine!
**[13:40] ---**
My flames...
**[13:43] ---**
Then I'll just pummel you to death!
**[13:47] ---**
Die!
**[14:03] ---**
What is this power?!
**[14:08] ---**
Impossible! Th-That crest...!
**[14:22] ---**
A Dragon?!
**[14:28] ---**
What is that light?!
**[14:29] ---**
I remember!
Dai used powerful magic in battle before!
**[14:35] ---**
That mark appeared on his forehead then!
**[14:39] ---**
*A Dragon Crest?!
Is this boy a Dragon Knight?!*
**[14:45] ---**
*Impossible!*
**[14:49] ---**
How dare you...
**[14:52] ---**
How dare you kill Master!
**[14:54] ---**
You'll pay for that!
**[14:57] ---**
Don't get cocky, boy!
**[15:10] ---**
Yes!
**[15:12] ---**
This is impossible! I may have
sustained damage from Megante...
**[15:17] ---**
And he may be a student of Avan...
**[15:20] ---**
But how could I be overpowered
by a mere child?!
**[15:30] ---**
Die!
**[15:35] ---**
Die! Die!
**[15:41] ---**
Eat this!
**[15:44] ---**
Boom!
**[15:52] ---**
Dai!
**[15:57] ---**
How's that? I used
the last of my Magic Power on that spell.
**[16:03] ---**
Surely he's dead now.
**[16:09] ---**
Dai! Don't tell me he killed you, too!
**[16:13] ---**
That's right! There's no way I can lose!
**[16:31] ---**
Impossible!
**[16:49] ---**
I won't lose! Not to you!
**[17:02] ---**
Die!
**[17:05] ---**
Dai! Above you!
**[17:06] ---**
Feel how powerful Master's attack is...
**[17:13] ---**
for yourself!
**[17:18] ---**
What?!
**[17:19] ---**
Avan...
**[17:23] ---**
Strash!
**[17:39] ---**
Curse you, boy! I'll remember
this humiliation and your name!
**[17:44] ---**
I swear I will kill you! Dai!
**[18:15] ---**
Dai, are you okay?!
**[18:18] ---**
Grampa, Gomechan.
**[18:21] ---**
Where's Hadlar?!
**[18:23] ---**
Unfortunately, it seems he escaped.
I saw him use a Chimaera Wing.
**[18:29] ---**
Oh...
**[18:36] ---**
Master...
**[18:38] ---**
Master...
**[18:40] ---**
Master!
**[18:58] ---**
The magic circle of light remains
even after Sir Avan has gone.
**[19:05] ---**
He still protects us even now.
**[19:08] ---**
I told you Master is amazing.
**[19:11] ---**
Popp...
**[19:12] ---**
Dai, what will you do now?
**[19:15] ---**
Huh?
**[19:16] ---**
Will you continue
your magic training under me?
**[19:20] ---**
Or...
**[19:22] ---**
I...
**[19:27] ---**
Master gave me a mission.
To one day defeat Vearn, the Dark King.
**[19:35] ---**
That's why... I...
**[19:41] ---**
SOVEREIGN ROCK CASTLE
**[19:51] ---**
*I see you took quite the beating, Hadlar.*
**[19:55] ---**
Forgive me, my Dark King,
for making you see me in this condition.
**[20:01] ---**
*It matters not.*
**[20:04] ---**
*You have buried Avan, the Hero.
Consider them wounds of honor.*
**[20:11] ---**
My Lord.
**[20:12] ---**
*I have placed all of my trust in you.*
**[20:16] ---**
*With your rival Avan dead,
no one can stop my Dark Army.*
**[20:22] ---**
*Go forth and fulfill your dream
of overthrowing the world.*
**[20:27] ---**
Yes, Sire!
**[20:32] ---**
*It's true that Avan is dead.*
**[20:35] ---**
*But that boy Dai is a far greater threat.*
**[20:40] ---**
*Wounded as I was, to overpower me,
Hadlar, the Dark Commander...*
**[20:48] ---**
*And that mark on his forehead.
The Dragon Crest.*
**[20:54] ---**
*If he really is a Dragon Knight...*
**[20:58] ---**
*And, with Avan's training,
if he manages to reach power of a Hero...*
**[21:04] ---**
*he will become
far more powerful than Avan!*
**[21:09] ---**
*The wounds I received from him
are proof of that.*
**[21:14] ---**
*The wound from Dai heals slower
than the wound from Avan.*
**[21:19] ---**
*In that instant,
Dai's blade surpassed that of his master!*
**[21:29] ---**
*If I let him live, he is sure to grow into
a terrifying enemy.*
**[21:44] ---**
I must crush him!
While he still remains a fledgling!
**[21:54] ---**
With my grand Dark Army!
**[22:20] ---**
*Kindness is the magic of kind people*
**[22:20] ---**
*yasashisa wa yasashii hito ga tsukaeru mahou*
**[22:26] ---**
*Then do I have no choice
But to just be a normal person?*
**[22:26] ---**
*jaa boku wa tada no hito de iru shikanaino?*
**[22:33] ---**
*I'm not sure*
**[22:33] ---**
*doudarou*
**[22:38] ---**
*Even if the place I call home may change*
**[22:38] ---**
*kaeru basho wa ne kawatte yuku kedo*
**[22:44] ---**
*Listen to me, Mother*
**[22:44] ---**
*naa kaasan boku wa*
**[22:46] ---**
*I will never change those I protect*
**[22:46] ---**
*mamoru hito wo kaetari shinai*
**[22:53] ---**
*I wonder what you'd say*
**[22:53] ---**
*anata wa nannte iukana*
**[22:57] ---**
*At times I can be cowardly and small*
**[22:57] ---**
*tokiyori yowaki de chippoke de*
**[23:01] ---**
*What would you say to me
As I hesitate to even hesitate?*
**[23:01] ---**
*mayou koto ni mo mayou boku ni nannte iukana*
**[23:08] ---**
*Unlike the today that I sought*
**[23:08] ---**
*sagashite ita kyou to chigatte*
**[23:14] ---**
*I'm sure you'd laugh at my disappointment*
**[23:14] ---**
*ochikonnde shimau boku wo warau no darou*
**[23:33] ---**
*With new determination in their hearts,
Dai and Popp leave Dermline Island.*
**[23:38] ---**
*Their first stop
is the Dark Forest of Romos Kingdom.*
**[23:42] ---**
*Dai and Popp meet the girl Maam.*
**[23:45] ---**
*The terrifying footsteps
of monsters approach.*
**[23:48] ---**
*Can Dai and his friends
safely make it through the forest?*
**[23:53] ---**
*Next time on*
DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai*,*
**[23:56] ---**
*"Crocodine, the Beast King"*
**[23:58] ---**
*The adventure continues!*
**[24:00] ---**
**[24:02] ---**
