    Episode 8: The Dragon Emperor of Bronze and Flames
[01:36] Nono
    I wanted to show him that even if
    you're S-rank, you're not a threat.
[01:40] Nono
    Caesar said he'd find someone
    powerful at tonight's party.
[01:45] Nono
    Because it was a gathering of the elite.
[01:48] Nono
    And what he found was Rin from Saki.
[01:51] Nono
    Rin looks up to you, S-rank.
[01:56] Nono
    What are you blushing for?
[01:58] Nono
    An A-rank girl is perfect
    for an S-rank like you.
[02:01] Liu Mingfei
    No, I mean, I don't even know her number...
[02:04] Nono
    Join the Student Union.
[02:09] Liu Mingfei
    This is definitely a honey trap!
[02:11] Liu Mingfei
    Caesar's having Nono seduce me
    so I'll join the Student Union!
[02:15] Liu Mingfei
    And I ain't falling for it!
[02:18] Liu Mingfei
    But part of me feels like
    I might have a shot with her!
[02:21] Liu Mingfei
    No, I won't be defeated!
    I will resist this temptation!
[02:24] Nono
    Caesar's got nothing to do with it.
[02:26] Nono
    I want you to join it.
[02:29] Liu Mingfei
    What does that mean?
[02:31] Nono
    I've been wanting somebody
    I could boss around.
[02:35] Liu Mingfei
    Don't you get to boss around all the
    people Caesar gets to boss around?
[02:38] Nono
    Why would I? I'm not Caesar.
[02:41] Nono
    Sure, we're engaged. But that was
    something our families decided.
[02:44] Nono
    I'm my own person!
[02:46] Liu Mingfei
    So you're engaged to him, huh?
[02:49] Liu Mingfei
    I see.
[02:50] Nono
    It would be better if you
    joined one of the groups.
[02:53] Nono
    What will you do?
[02:55] Nono
    Let me boss you around and
    I promise to keep you safe.
[03:00] Liu Mingfei
    You didn't help me at all during the dance.
[03:03] Nono
    I wanted to!
[03:08] (Flashback) Caesar
    Don't interfere.
[03:10] (Flashback) Caesar
    If he's who I think he is, he'll be
    capable of handling this on his own.
[03:16] Nono
    That's how it went.
[03:18] Liu Mingfei
    So she did try to help me.
[03:22] Liu Mingfei
    I guess it's okay, then.
[03:23] Nono
    So what will it be?
[03:24] Nono
    I promise to help you if you need it.
[03:28] Liu Mingfei
    Don't act like you're the only
    one who gets to help somebody.
[03:31] Liu Mingfei
    If I get a chance, I'll help you!
    I'll repay you!
[03:34] Nono
    The sooner the better, they say.
[03:36] Nono
    Will you repay me today?
[03:38] Liu Mingfei
    Very well.
[03:39] Liu Mingfei
    Ask me anything you want me to do!
[03:40] Nono
    I haven't gotten a birthday present yet.
[03:43] Nono
    Give me a present, now.
[03:46] Liu Mingfei
    H-Here in the middle of the mountains?
[03:49] Liu Mingfei
    How am I supposed to get you a present?
[03:52] Liu Mingfei
    If you really want one,
    let's go back to the dorm.
[03:54] Liu Mingfei
    Maybe there'll be a big stack
    of presents on your bed.
[03:56] Nono
    That's not the kind of present I want.
[03:59] Nono
    I just want a present from a single person.
[04:03] Nono
    I'm waiting for a present
    from that person, here.
[04:07] Liu Mingfei
    That person? Caesar?
[04:10] Nono
    No.
[04:12] Liu Mingfei
    Then...
[04:13] Nono
    I get a present from that person,
     and realize someone is watching over me.
[04:22] Nono
    And then I spend another year happy.
[04:25] Nono
    Because I'm not alone.
[04:30] Nono
    Every year... Every single year...
[04:37] Nono
    What will my gift be... this year?
[04:46] Nono
    It would make me so happy...
[04:49] Nono
    if it were flowers.
[04:57] Liu Mingfei
    Show...
[04:59] Liu Mingfei
    Show me...
[05:01] Liu Mingfei
    the flowers...
[05:08] Nono
    Music?
[05:19] Nono
    Fireworks?
[05:21] Nono
    Those are fireworks!
[05:24] Nono
    Hooray!
[05:34] Liu Mingfei
    Fireworks...
[05:36] Liu Mingfei
    They look great.
[05:47] Nono
    Fireworks!
[06:05] Liu Mingfei
    There's even a message.
[06:07] Nono
    They're beautiful.
[06:11] Nono
    I don't care who they're from...
[06:14] Nono
    Because they made me so happy.
[06:23] Nono
    Happy birthday to me!
[06:38] Nono
    Mom...
[06:47] Liu Mingfei
    So Senpai was waiting for her mother...
[07:02] Nono
    What's wrong?
[07:05] Nono
    You got quiet all of a sudden.
[07:12] Liu Mingfei
    Senpai, I've decided.
[07:15] Liu Mingfei
    I'll let you boss me around, I think.
[07:23] Nono
    I'll protect you, Mingfei.
[07:50] Lao Tang
    I didn't mean to...
[08:11] Lao Tang
    That's a huge aquarium.
[08:13] Lao Tang
    Are they keeping a giant turtle here?
[08:14] Lao Tang
    Or...
[08:17] Lao Tang
    A shark?
[08:21] Lao Tang
    Come and get me! I'll fight you!
[08:23] Lao Tang
    Just so you know, lots of animals hate me!
[08:31] Lao Tang
    Animals have always avoided
    me since I was little.
[08:34] Lao Tang
    I can't believe that goes for sharks, too.
[08:37] Lao Tang
    But that strange part of
    who I am just saved my life.
[08:40] Lao Tang
    Cassel College Aquarium #7
    Main Animal: Pliosaurus
[08:46] Lao Tang
    Where is the Svartálfaheimr lab?
[08:50] Lao Tang
    An elevator?
[08:53] Lao Tang
    This way to lab
[08:55] Lao Tang
    So it was under Valhalla, huh?
[08:59] Lao Tang
    Let's go!
[09:04] Lao Tang
    This door doesn't look easy to open.
[09:07] Lao Tang
    But I've got this card the client gave me.
[09:12] Lao Tang
    My secret weapon.
[09:29] Norma
    Injecting liquid nitrogen.
[09:31] Norma
    Superconducting coolant magnetic field on.
[09:34] Norma
    Recovery successful.
[09:37] Principal
    Without a sample of a Dragon Emperor,
    research went nowhere.
[09:42] Principal
    But it's time for a new history to begin.
[09:46] Principal
    This is Norton,
    the Dragon Emperor we've secured!
[09:53] Principal
    For thousands of years,
[09:55] Principal
    we've had to deal with
    Dragon Emperors coming back to life.
[09:59] Principal
    The Dragon Emperors were created
    by the Black Dragon Emperor
[10:02] Principal
    as supernatural beings,
    somewhere between gods and devils,
[10:02] Lao Tang
    Is that what my client wants?
[10:05] Principal
    and we can't even create anything similar.
[10:05] Lao Tang
    All right, that five million is mine!
[10:08] Man
    Let's get to the point, Principal.
[10:11] Man
    Will you let us dissect the dragon?
[10:13] Man
    Dissect! Dissect!
[10:15] Man
    Principal Anjou,
    is what's inside still alive?
[10:19] Principal
    We don't know.
[10:21] Principal
    The vessel was made in the year AD 33,
[10:26] Principal
    and its owner was the retainer of a general.
[10:29] Principal
    That person was actually Norton in disguise.
[10:32] Man
    Is the vessel safe?
[10:34] Man
    If we don't know, shouldn't we
    dissect it as soon as possible?
[10:37] Man
    Principal! Let's dissect it!
[10:40] Man
    It's extremely dangerous.
[10:42] Man
    Is there any guarantee that
    what's inside won't revive?
[10:45] Principal
    Don't worry. It's safe.
[10:47] Principal
    What's inside has yet to awaken.
[10:49] Principal
    The liquid nitrogen keeps it
     at an ultra-low temperature,
[10:52] Principal
    and the superconductive magnetic field
    stops it from controlling the metal.
[10:56] Principal
    When the Dragon Emperor of Bronze and
    Flames is kept away from metal and fire,
[11:00] Principal
    it falls into a long sleep.
[11:03] Principal
    The urn itself is also very strong.
[11:06] Principal
    It's also not actually brass,
    but some kind of regenerative metal.
[11:11] Principal
    Even the Dragon Emperor himself
    would struggle to open it.
[11:14] Man
    Um, Principal, it seems to be cracked.
[11:18] Principal
    When Professor Lars secured it,
    he used a solvent made of tin and ash.
[11:22] Principal
    That's the one thing that can
    damage regenerative metals.
[11:27] Principal
    Norma, are the scan results ready?
[11:30] Norma
    Yes.
[11:31] Principal
    Show them.
[11:38] Man
    It's split in two?
[11:41] Principal
    One half is empty!
[11:43] Principal
    That wasn't caused by the solvent.
    It's much older!
[11:48] Principal
    Is that a cocoon?
[11:49] Principal
    Something came out through that hole?!
[11:56] Man
    Let's dissect it!
[11:58] Man
    I can't wait anymore!
[11:59] Man
    We should see for ourselves, now!
[12:00] Principal
    But we don't have any
    tools that can cut it.
[12:04] Man
    A water jet cutter...
[12:06] Principal
    I'm sorry.
[12:07] Principal
    This is critical for the college.
[12:10] Principal
    Stop the lasers now. And then
    all of you leave the room.
[12:15] Principal
    You know nothing. If we awaken the
    Dragon Emperor, the school is doomed.
[12:22] Principal
    Leave, now. Now!
[12:24] Lao Tang
    This is my chance!
[12:27] Principal
    Norma, lower the temperature in the room.
[12:29] Principal
    -30 degrees.
[12:31] Norma
    Lowering temperature.
[12:36] Man
    I didn't mean anything by it. I just...
[12:43] Lao Tang
    It's so cold!
[12:49] Norton
    Brother.
[12:53] Lao Tang
    The cold's making me see things.
[12:55] Lao Tang
    Do it for the five million!
[12:57] Lao Tang
    Five million is worth a little cold!
[12:59] Lao Tang
    Here it is, huh?
[13:01] Lao Tang
    First I'll take photos,
    and then see if I can carry it.
[13:13] Norton
    Brother.
[13:15] Lao Tang
    Evil spirits begone! Evil spirits begone!
[13:23] Lao Tang
    What is this thing? It's creepy...
[13:27] Lao Tang
    Forget the five million...
[13:31] Lao Tang
    That's the vial my client
    sent me before the job.
[13:37] Lao Tang
    I've given up on the mission.
[13:39] Lao Tang
    I don't care.
[13:50] Enxi
    #13. This is my last order.
[13:52] Enxi
    Open the vial and pour the tin
    ash solvent over the target,
[13:56] Enxi
    then take out what's inside.
[13:58] Enxi
    Do this and your reward is 10 million.
[14:05] Principal
    He abandoned the mission?
[14:08] Principal
    You can't trust the young.
[14:16] Norma
    This will open a ley line.
[14:19] Norma
    The Dragon Emperor may awaken.
[14:20] Principal
    Norma, be quiet.
[14:21] Norma
    Operation not permitted.
[14:22] Principal
    Let us witness a miracle together.
[14:38] Principal
    I offer my body to the great
    Black Dragon Emperor, Nidhogg.
[14:42] Principal
    For he is noble, strong, virtuous,
    and fated to rule the world.
[14:54] Principal
    I welcome your return,
[14:58] Principal
    Constantine.

[15:26] Caesar
    Ninjutsu?
[15:27] Caesar
    You seem to be of Eastern descent.
[15:30] Caesar
    The sound of your butterfly hairpin
    and your high-speed movement
[15:32] Caesar
    make it impossible to track you.
[15:34] Caesar
    Fascinating.
[15:36] Mai
    You always have to act so
    calm and collected, huh?
[15:39] Caesar
    Let's do best two out of three.
[15:41] Caesar
    Can you beat me with those katanas?
[15:45] Mai
    Don't be afraid.
[15:46] Mai
    I always go easy on hot guys.
[15:49] Caesar
    And beautiful ladies are my weakness.
[15:59] Mai
    First round.
[16:03] Mai
    Kamaitachi picks up even the
    smallest sounds, doesn't it?
[16:06] Mai
    Amazing.
[16:07] Caesar
    That's because my Kamaitachi
    is made up of wind spirits.
[16:13] Mai
    Time for the second round.
[16:23] Caesar
    You used your hairpin to make a clone?
[16:25] Mai
    Impressive.
[16:27] Mai
    Third round.
[16:29] Mai
    This will be the last.
[16:45] Caesar
    What's going on?
[16:47] Caesar
    She discarded the advantage
    her high speed gave her.
[16:50] Caesar
    The last sounds I heard
    came from all directions.
[16:53] Caesar
    In other words, she's standing
    in every direction around me.
[17:05] Caesar
    Which means...
[17:07] Caesar
    Kamaitachi, return.
[17:35] Mai
    Not bad.
[17:37] Mai
    How did you know I was here?
[17:39] Caesar
    You used your ninjutsu to hide
    the sound of your heartbeat,
[17:42] Caesar
    but it was pounding violently after
    all that high-speed movement.
[17:45] Caesar
    And at the very end, the sound from
    your hairpin couldn't hide it.
[17:51] Caesar
    That's why I said three rounds.
[17:53] Caesar
    Tell me.
[17:55] Caesar
    How were you able to generate
    sound from all directions?
[18:00] Mai
    The victor doesn't have to say a word.
[18:05] Caesar
    I thought I said to use your katanas.
[18:07] Mai
    You believe what girls tell you, don't you?
[18:09] Mai
    Especially pretty ones.
[18:11] Norton
    Brother.
[18:16] Both
    What's going on?
[18:18] Both
    I don't know!
[18:26] Caesar
    Call a truce?
[18:27] Caesar
    It's a tie.
[18:28] Mai
    Fine. A tie it is.
[18:31] Mai
    Tell them to turn the lights on.
[18:32] Caesar
    Norma, lights on.
[18:36] Mai
    Did somebody trip the breaker?
[18:39] Mai
    Do you only hire the
    very cheapest electricians?
[18:43] Caesar
    So many of those butterfly hairpins...
[18:46] Mai
    Have you figured out the truth
    behind my "clone"?
[18:54] Caesar
    Footprints?
[18:56] Caesar
    If they came from a person, he or she
    would be about 160 centimeters tall.
[19:01] Caesar
    With a stride two thirds of mine.
[19:04] Mai
    A hole just opened in the wall.
[19:07] Mai
    Something would have to be as
    hot as the surface of the sun to do that.
[19:12] Mai
    Is this college hiding something weird?
[19:15] Caesar
    Are you sure it's not some buddy of yours?
[19:16] Mai
    Of course not.
[19:18] Mai
    But then what was that sound?
[19:22] Caesar
    The elevator?
[19:24] Caesar
    They came up from below.
[19:26] Mai
    What's below Valhalla?
[19:27] Caesar
    A lab.
[19:28] Mai
    Then...
[19:29] Caesar
    That doesn't explain it.
[19:31] Caesar
    When I pulled in my Kamaitachi, they were
    already about to arrive at the first floor.
[19:36] Caesar
    But I didn't even hear a heartbeat.
[19:41] Mai
    Which means...
[19:43] Caesar
    If they're a person,
    then their heart isn't beating.
[19:54] Mai
    Get away from me.
[19:56] Mai
    I'll make a call.
[20:00] Nono
    Why'd this car suddenly start working again?
[20:05] Liu Mingfei
    I don't know, myself.
[20:10] Nono
    Let's head back to the college, then.
[20:14] Liu Mingfei
    Okay.
