[00:22] ---
    Let's sleep here tonight.
[00:25] ---
    I wanna get Yuri and Precht
    to a doctor fast, but...
[00:29] ---
    I'm fine.
[00:30] ---
    It seems like a long way to the next town.
[00:33] ---
    I'll draw some water.
[00:37] ---
    Mavis...
[02:31] ---
    I was careless.
[02:34] ---
    Our enemies are wizards.
[02:37] ---
    One guild...
[02:39] ---
    I should have realized they
    were powerful opponents.
[02:43] ---
    But instead...
[02:46] ---
    ...because of my error in judgment...
[02:49] ---
    If I had more power...
SIGN    The One Who Teaches Magic
[03:19] ---
    I... I'm sorry!
[03:21] ---
    I didn't know anyone else was here!
[03:24] ---
    Leave this forest.
[03:31] ---
    Sorry.
[03:33] ---
    Force of habit.
[03:40] ---
    I'm the one who will leave.
[03:43] ---
    Um...
[04:00] ---
    What is this?
[04:03] ---
    Everything that gets close to me...
[04:06] ---
    ...dies.
[04:13] ---
    You're...
[04:15] ---
    You mustn't come near me.
[04:18] ---
    Ankhseram Black Magic...
[04:24] ---
    I've only read about it in books,
[04:27] ---
    but it's a type of ancient curse, isn't it?
[04:30] ---
    It's also called the
     "Curse of Contradictions."
[04:34] ---
    The more one respects the
    lives of living things,
[04:38] ---
    the more death energy is released.
[04:41] ---
    On the other hand,
[04:42] ---
    if one doesn't have respect for
    the lives of living things,
[04:45] ---
    death energy won't be released.
[04:51] ---
    I'm sorry.
[04:53] ---
    It just... came out...
[04:55] ---
    That's all right.
[04:57] ---
    You're quite knowledgeable.
[05:00] ---
    It's the first time someone has
    correctly identified my curse.
[05:03] ---
    That being said, I avoid meeting
    people to the best of my ability.
[05:09] ---
    Have you been here long?
[05:11] ---
    No. I wander around from place to place.
[05:15] ---
    Because of this curse, I can't
    have physical contact with anyone.
[05:18] ---
    Not even animals.
[05:20] ---
    Any living creature dies at my touch.
[05:27] ---
    You don't need to be sad for me.
[05:29] ---
    You're a kind girl.
[05:32] ---
    Aren't you lonely?
[05:35] ---
    I don't know.
[05:36] ---
    It's been a long time, but I believe
[05:39] ---
    I'm enjoying this, talking to you.
[05:45] ---
    But at the same time...
[05:47] ---
    ...I'm battling with fear, the fear that
    my power will kill a little girl like you.
[05:54] ---
    Even though I don't want to kill anyone...
[06:01] ---
    I have to go.
[06:02] ---
    I apologize for scaring you.
[06:11] ---
    Don't.
[06:15] ---
    You mustn't come near me!
[06:26] ---
    And yet...
[06:31] ---
    Why are so many animals gathered around me?
[06:34] ---
    You can touch them without fear.
[06:39] ---
    This is my magic.
[06:46] ---
    I see...
[06:50] ---
    You can't really touch them, though...
[06:52] ---
    No. It's warm.
[06:56] ---
    Thank you.
[06:58] ---
    Perhaps it's fate that you and I
    encountered each other here.
[07:04] ---
    I have a feeling you're an incredible wizard.
[07:10] ---
    Please.
[07:12] ---
    Please teach us magic.
[07:15] ---
    There's an enemy that we have to fight.
[07:26] ---
    Who's he?
[08:12] ---
    We're supposed to be doing magic training,
[08:14] ---
    so why do we have to meditate?
[08:17] ---
    Anyway, this is important
    to start with, right?
[08:21] ---
    Magic power is necessary
    to put magic into operation.
[08:30] ---
    You're too far away!
[08:31] ---
    He can't get too close to us.
[08:33] ---
    Also, you have to materialize
[08:35] ---
    the magic power that's inside
    of you and release it.
[08:39] ---
    But we don't have any magic in our bodies!
[08:43] ---
    But the fact is, there are a great number
    of wizards who possess magic in this world.
[08:47] ---
    This is what it is.
[08:50] ---
    To wizards, magic power is
    the equivalent of life force.
[08:54] ---
    So-called Ethernanos are the
    building blocks of magic power.
[08:59] ---
    Ethernanos...
[09:00] ---
    That's right.
[09:01] ---
    They're in the air
[09:04] ---
    and can be absorbed into the body.
[09:06] ---
    Ethernanos that are thus absorbed
    become the person's magic power.
[09:11] ---
    Meditation is the most effective
    means of magic absorption.
[09:16] ---
    Did you know this?
[09:18] ---
    I just read a little about it in books.
[09:20] ---
    I have a question, Sensei!
[09:22] ---
    What, are we in school now?
[09:25] ---
    Some of us could never pass as students.
[09:32] ---
    I understand that Ethernanos
    are the source of magic power.
[09:36] ---
    So is it the more you take in,
[09:39] ---
    the stronger the magic you can use?
[09:41] ---
    With Ethernanos...
[09:43] ---
    ...the vessel determines the limit
    of each wizard's magic power,
[09:47] ---
    so the amount you can take in varies.
[09:50] ---
    But even if the magic power in one's body is
    exhausted after being used extensively,
[09:56] ---
    the body will automatically
    absorb Ethernanos from the air
[10:00] ---
    and after a while,
    the vessel will be full again.
[10:03] ---
    In other words, magic power is
    something that can be replenished.
[10:09] ---
    Wow!
[10:13] ---
    But there's one more important thing.
[10:16] ---
    Important thing?
[10:18] ---
    To use magic,
[10:20] ---
    it takes more than just transforming
    the magic power in your body.
[10:24] ---
    There's something else that's indispensable.
[10:27] ---
    That is...
[10:32] ---
    ...the strength of a wizard's feelings.
[10:36] ---
    Strength of feelings?
[10:38] ---
    Yes.
[10:39] ---
    Unless you have strong feelings in your heart
[10:41] ---
    and draw upon them,
    it won't be easy to employ any magic.
[10:49] ---
    It's gotten late.
[10:52] ---
    We'll stop here for this evening.
    We'll start practicing tomorrow.
[10:55] ---
    Goodnight.
[10:59] ---
    Goodnight.
[11:02] ---
    That's what magic is?
[11:04] ---
    Who is that guy?
[11:16] ---
    Meditation is the most effective means
[11:19] ---
    of Ethernanos absorption.
[11:40] ---
    Are those...
[11:42] ---
    ...Ethernanos?!
[11:48] ---
    This is...
[11:50] ---
    It seems you have the makings of a wizard.
[11:56] ---
    I'm not losing to him!
[11:57] ---
    Me either!
[11:59] ---
    Let's all do our best!
[12:12] ---
    You should probably just try again tomorrow.
[12:14] ---
    Don't talk to me!
[12:16] ---
    I'm meditating.
[12:18] ---
    It's not about trying to
    absorb them with your will,
[12:21] ---
    but setting your heart free.
[12:23] ---
    I can't do it!
[12:25] ---
    Sitting still goes against my grain!
[12:31] ---
    Th-That won't...
[12:33] ---
    Nope, I feel much better
    movin' the old bod around.
[12:37] ---
    This is how I set my heart and mind free!
[12:40] ---
    Th-That's how it works for you?
[12:45] ---
    Here it comes!
[12:49] ---
    Look! It came to me, too!
[12:51] ---
    Really?
[12:53] ---
    Shut up and go to sleep.
[12:55] ---
    Just look at me, I said!
[12:57] ---
    Look! Look! Look! Look!
[12:59] ---
    What do you think?!
    What do you think about this?!
[13:07] ---
    Transformation, huh?
[13:34] ---
    Focus on my consciousness.
[13:37] ---
    It's the same as before...
[13:44] ---
    More... more...
[13:53] ---
    It's difficult.
[13:55] ---
    How are you doing, Zera?
[14:00] ---
    Hey! Don't look at me!
[14:01] ---
    I can't concentrate!
[14:12] ---
    That's amazing, Zera!
[14:14] ---
    Here I go, Mavis!
[14:16] ---
    I'm ready when you are!
[14:35] ---
    Guess I don't have enough focus...
[14:53] ---
    You can't call it training
    without a waterfall!
[14:56] ---
    Yeah! Here come the Ethernanos!
[14:59] ---
    Gimme more!
[15:04] ---
    Gimme more!
[15:12] ---
    Wh-What the...?
[16:59] ---
    All right!
[17:10] ---
    Precht, your magic's awesome, too.
[17:13] ---
    I saw it a little while ago
    and was flabbergasted.
[17:15] ---
    You need to work on yours farther away.
[17:18] ---
    Your noisy lightning is too distracting.
[17:20] ---
    Oh, really?
[17:22] ---
    Then I'm magnificent, too?
[17:23] ---
    Just get that fire started.
[17:26] ---
    Up yours.
[17:28] ---
    By the way, Warrod,
    how's your magic comin' along?
[17:31] ---
    So-so.
[17:33] ---
    I see.
[17:38] ---
    That's not enough.
[17:40] ---
    I'll get some more.
[17:42] ---
    Okay. Yeah, I'm countin' on you.
[17:52] ---
    Dammit!
[17:54] ---
    I'm fine gathering sticks alone.
[17:56] ---
    If all of them are broken off the trees,
    the wood will be too damp to catch fire.
[18:02] ---
    Let's pick up the sticks
    that are on the ground.
[18:04] ---
    It's always been like this.
[18:06] ---
    I can never keep up with those two.
[18:14] ---
    No matter what it is,
[18:16] ---
    I can't do it as skillfully as them.
[18:18] ---
    It's happening all over again here.
    I'm holding them back.
[18:21] ---
    You're holding them back?
[18:23] ---
    They said just the opposite.
[18:26] ---
    The opposite?
[18:28] ---
    Yes.
[18:36] ---
    Are you okay?
[18:37] ---
    Training is important,
    but you shouldn't overdo it...
[18:41] ---
    I don't want a repeat of
    what happened last time.
[18:44] ---
    Of course not.
[18:46] ---
    We won't be sitting ducks again for them...
[18:48] ---
    No.
[18:50] ---
    I'm talking about getting saved by Warrod.
[18:56] ---
    It's always been like that.
[18:58] ---
    Every time we jump off the deep end,
    Warrod's there to haul us to safety.
[19:02] ---
    Without him, I'd be in
    the afterlife right now.
[19:06] ---
    That's right.
[19:08] ---
    I owe him a lot.
[19:11] ---
    We're comrades.
[19:13] ---
    We can't let the big lug
    do all the heavy lifting,
[19:16] ---
    so next time, it'll be
    our turn to protect him.
[19:19] ---
    Protect me?
[19:22] ---
    It's nice to have comrades, isn't it?
[19:25] ---
    In order to use magic,
    it's important to have...
[19:30] ---
    ...the strength of feelings.
[19:32] ---
    Yes. The strength of feelings.
[19:38] ---
    Well, let's go back.
[19:40] ---
    I'm hungry.
[19:49] ---
    It seems I'm not cut out for intense attacks.
[19:53] ---
    I want to protect my comrades.
[19:56] ---
    Teach me magic that will
    let me support everyone.
[19:59] ---
    Sure.
[20:00] ---
    There's a kind of magic that goes well
    with the color of your soul.
[20:05] ---
    Color of my soul?
[20:15] ---
    Tree magic, huh?
[20:27] ---
    W-What's going on?!
[20:29] ---
    I... I don't know!
[20:30] ---
    What the...?
[20:35] ---
    Is that...
[20:36] ---
    ...Warrod?!
[20:37] ---
    Who else could it be?
[20:40] ---
    You did it, Warrod.
[20:50] ---
    This is my magic!
[20:55] ---
    I'm the last one left.
[20:58] ---
    What are you so down about?
[21:01] ---
    I'm not down,
[21:03] ---
    but I was wishing I also had
    special magic that would
[21:06] ---
    let me protect those
     who are dear to me.
[21:10] ---
    W-What?!
[21:11] ---
    We're having an important conversation!
[21:23] ---
    Whoa! My whole body is surging with power!
[21:27] ---
    Yeah. Now we can also...
[21:29] ---
    ...fight.
[21:32] ---
    What do you think?
[21:33] ---
    Introducing Black Magic Mavis!
[21:36] ---
    You're really into it, huh?
[21:38] ---
    Yes!
[21:39] ---
    Huh? Where is that black magic wizard?
[21:43] ---
    Come to think of it,
    I haven't seen him for a while.
[21:45] ---
    Have you guys seen him?
[21:47] ---
    N-No.
[21:48] ---
    I haven't seen him.
[21:51] ---
    Where'd he go?
[21:52] ---
    For me, this was extremely odd behavior.
[21:56] ---
    Teaching people...
[21:58] ---
    Teaching a girl magic...
[22:00] ---
    Even for a whim, it was going too far.
[22:03] ---
    But our time together...
[22:09] ---
    ...has become a treasure for me, Mavis.
[22:14] ---
    Fairy Tail would be born in ten days.
[22:19] ---
    Perhaps I'm the one...
[22:21] ---
    ...who killed her.
[23:56] ---
    The time to strike back has come.
[23:57] ---
    The time to free the town of Magnolia...
[23:59] ---
    Mavis and the others challenge
    Blue Skull to another fight.
[24:03] ---
    Yuri, Precht, Warrod...
[24:06] ---
    Now that the three of them have new powers,
    they unleash a wave of explosive attacks
[24:10] ---
    as Fairy Tactician Mavis's strategy pays off.
[24:14] ---
    However, the battle takes a turn
    that no one could have imagined.
[24:19] ---
    Next time: Treasure.
SIGN    Treasure
[24:22] ---
    There are some things that can't be lost.
