    Causes of death are many and varied.
    Old age, suicide, illness...
[00:08] Obi; narration
    But the cause of death that scares the
    most people in this day and age...
[00:16] Obi; narration
    ...is death by fire.

[02:34] Haumea
    You're Benimaru from the 7th, aren't you?
[02:37] Benimaru
    I am Moonlite Mask.
[02:41] (Flashback) Konro
    We may be from Asakusa, but we can't
    afford to become enemies of the empire.
[02:46] (Flashback) Benimaru
    And that means I gotta wear this thing?
[02:50] (Flashback) Konro
    And fasten your happi the other way, too.
[02:54] (Flashback) Konro
    Listen closely, Waka.
[02:55] (Flashback) Konro
    The words you'll use to trick
    them are, "Just a moment!"
[03:01] Benimaru
    Just a moment! I am Moonlite Ma—

    "Just a moment"?
    What's that supposed to mean?
[03:53] Joker
    Obi, good work holding out.
[03:56] Obi
    That was close. I thought I was going to die.
[03:59] Joker
    Let's get moving. The White Clad
    have us surrounded.
[04:03] Obi
    Shinra, what happened to Captain Burns?
[04:06] Shinra
    A Demon Infernal. It was right in front of me.
[04:10] Shinra
    It got Captain Burns.
[04:16] Shinra
    I couldn't protect him.
[04:19] Shinra
    He said he'd leave everything to me, but I...
[04:27] Obi
    I see.
[04:28] Obi
    So Captain Burns entrusted
    everything to you.
[04:33] Shinra
    Captain Burns took on
    everything I threw at him.
[04:38] Obi
    Captain Burns fought for the sake
    of this empire to the very end.
[04:48] Obi
    Let's protect this empire.
[04:52] Shinra; internal
    Right now, I'm...
[04:55] Shinra; internal
    This spot... is so warm.
[05:00] Shinra; internal
    His back is so broad.
[05:03] Shinra; internal
    It's so reassuring.
[05:06] Shinra; internal
    This is what the world—

    Grab on to my standards! We're pulling back!

[05:25] Obi
    Yeah! Lieutenant Hinawa,
    thank you for making it this far!
[05:28] Joker
    You guys go on ahead.
[05:35] Joker
    Mr. Strongest, you get out
    of here, too. I'll cover you.
[05:38] Benimaru
    Looks like there are some people here
    who might be worth fighting, though.
[05:42] Joker
    Not even you could take them all on alone.
[05:45] Joker
    Wait, maybe you could.
[05:47] Benimaru
    Maybe. But there's a crazy

[06:45] Haumea
    Yeah.

    Amaterasu, Sho, Shinra, Inca,
    Nataku, me, and now that other one...
[06:55] Haumea
    Today, all the Pillars were in one place.

[07:50] Obi
    Thanks for taking us in.
[07:53] Obi
    If you hadn't arrived,
    we'd have gotten wiped out.
[07:57] Benimaru
    Well, we did exchange cups
    of sake with the 8th.
[08:01] Benimaru
    What happened between you and the empire?
[08:04] Benimaru
    Can you tell me what's going on?
[08:09] Obi
    The Holy Sol Temple and the
    Evangelist's crew have joined forces.
[08:13] Obi
    Because of that, the 8th is being
    cut off within the empire.
[08:18] Konro
    Looks like your instincts were right, Waka.
[08:21] Benimaru
    My instincts never work for gambling,
    but with this stuff...
[08:28] Benimaru
    Is what you just said true?
[08:31] Obi
    Yes.
[08:32] Obi
    Captain Burns of the 1st martyred himself.
[08:36] Konro
    You said a Demon Infernal got him, right?
[08:39] Konro
    Was it one of those doppelgangers
    that Hibana was talking about?
[08:44] Obi
    But the responsibility for the
    crime of killing Captain Burns
[08:48] Obi
    will fall upon the 8th.
[08:50] Obi
    That way, the union between the empire and
    the White Clad will grow even stronger.
[08:55] Konro
    We're heading for the
    worst possible scenario.
[08:58] Benimaru
    Why did Burns go through with that battle?
[09:02] Benimaru
    To isolate the 8th even more?
[09:06] Benimaru
    No. That's not what that guy's made of.

[11:45] Sakura; narration
    A hundred and thirteen

    Every day, conscientiously, from the heart,

    They have three meals per day, in the

    Nutritious vegetables that have bathed in

[13:34] (Flashback) Kishiri
    Anyway, what do you say to grabbing a meal?
[13:36] (Flashback) Kishiri
    I'm friends with the owner of

    Ugly?
[14:07] Kishiri
    I mean, it's nice not having to use a
    curling iron on my bangs every day.

    This is proof that the captain
    cares about me, right?

    Could it be that...

    Oh, Captain!

    That's why we want you

    Yes, Sister.

    Sakura, are you serious?
[15:48] (Flashback) Sumire
    I heard that!
[15:50] (Flashback) Sakura
    Argh!

    Sakura was always causing trouble.

    It's so nostalgic.
[16:05] Hibana
    She may have been a sister,

[16:46] Hibana
    There's nothing left of the
    buildings above ground.
[16:49] Hibana
    Which means...
[16:52] Hibana
    The Nether.
[16:57] Hibana
    If there's a large pocket of air below the
    surface, the vibration frequency should drop.
[17:02] Hibana
    But where?
[17:17] Hibana
    The frequency dropped!
    There's no mistaking it.
[17:20] Hibana
    There's a space under here!
[17:22] Hibana
    This is... the dining hall?
[17:26] Hibana
    There's an entrance to the Nether here.
[17:29] Hibana
    It's somewhere the sisters
    would never approach.
[17:34] Hibana
    The altar.
[17:36] Hibana
    The sisters wouldn't have touched
    this without good reason.
[17:39] Hibana
    Beneath this altar...
[17:42] Hibana
    But how to move such a huge thing?
[17:48] Hibana
    Gravel!
[17:51] Hibana
    It didn't even shudder.
[17:53] Hibana
    But... what was this altar again?
[17:57] Karim
    It's an altar for offerings!
[18:00] Karim
    Are you sure you used to be a sister?
[18:02] Hibana
    Why are you two here?
[18:05] Karim
    We tried to get in touch
    regarding a certain incident.
[18:07] Hibana
    In touch with me? And you
    came all the way out here?
[18:10] Karim
    There's something I want to
    ask you about doppelgangers.
[18:14] Hibana
    You guys, too?
[18:19] Hibana
    Blast that Kishiri, letting you
    through without permission!
[18:22] Hibana
    Never mind. You can see the
    situation for yourselves.
[18:25] Hibana
    I've deduced that there's
    something under this altar,
[18:29] Hibana
    but I can't figure out what
    to do next. I'm stuck.
[18:32] Karim
    I'll figure something out.
[18:34] Hibana
    Can you make flames under the altar?
[18:36] Hibana
    Are you giving me orders?
[18:39] Huo Yan
    I'll do it.
[18:40] Hibana
    Don't. I'll do it.
[18:42] Hibana
    Rose Whip!
[18:44] Hibana
    Entangle!
[18:46] Karim
    Thermoacoustic cooling!
[18:54] Karim
    What's gonna come to light?
[19:00] Hibana
    I knew it! Stairs leading underground.
[19:02] Huo Yan
    Why would those be in a sacred convent?
[19:09] Hibana
    It looks like the fire didn't
    affect anything down here.
[19:12] Huo Yan
    Holy Sol, I beg your forgiveness.
[19:21] Hibana
    There was a place like
    this underground here?
[19:25] Karim
    This goes against the doctrine
    of the Holy Sol faith.
[19:29] Huo Yan
    It's just as we deduced,
    but I was hoping it wasn't true.
[19:34] Hibana
    Eight pillars.
[19:36] Hibana
    That's the same number as there are
    human pillars with the Adolla Burst.
[19:39] Karim
    This place reeks of something burnt.
[19:46] Hibana; internal
    Somewhere, there's something about
    the mystery of human combustion.
[19:49] Hibana; internal
    As I thought, the convent
    fire was set deliberately.
[19:53] Hibana; internal
    There must be proof of that here somewhere.
[19:57] Hibana
    A book about plants?
[19:59] Huo Yan
    There are instructional books
    on agriculture here, as well.
[20:02] Huo Yan
    Captain Hibana, do you have
    any ideas about this?
[20:07] Hibana
    Agriculture? How could
    that possibly connect?
[20:12] Sakura; narration
    The crest of this convent is the cross of
    the Holy Sol Temple with flowering plants.
[20:18] Hibana; internal
    No, I'm probably reading
    too much into things.
[20:21] Karim
    It's a book about bugs.
[20:23] Karim
    Plants and bugs... This place is
    full of books about mundane things.
[20:29] Sakura; narration
    They have three meals per day, in the
    morning, the afternoon, and the evening.
[20:34] Karim
    After taking the trouble to make this room,
[20:37] Karim
    all they left here are books
    about plants and bugs?
[20:43] Sakura; narration
    Nutritious vegetables that have bathed in
    the light of the sun are the main foods.
[20:49] Karim
    If, after the doppelganger
    experiments conducted here,
[20:52] Karim
    the sisters were turned into Infernals...
[20:55] Sakura; narration
    They are, of course, vegetables that
    the sisters have grown themselves.
[21:04] Karim
    But there aren't any hints about the
    concrete details of those experiments.
[21:09] Karim
    What happened here?
[21:11] Huo Yan
    And now recipes for meals?
[21:24] Karim
    It looks like this was just
    for document storage.
[21:28] Huo Yan
    What's wrong?
[21:30] Hibana
    Could it be that for such a long time, we...
[21:45] Sakura; narration
    The convent's crest, together
    with the sisters' customs,
[21:50] Sakura; narration
    created a tradition in which the
    sisters are named after flowers.
[21:56] Karim
    Did you figure something out?
[21:59] Hibana
    They were creating...
[22:01] Hibana
    Like crops, giving the
    sisters flower names...
[22:07] Karim
    What are you trying to say?
[22:09] Huo Yan
    So something did happen here?
[22:10] Hibana
    Flower names and then bugs...
