[00:14] Gejutel
    Is this it?
[00:19] Tashiro
    Next period's in another classroom.
[00:20] Kase
    What's wrong? Let's go, c'mon.
[00:23] Regis
    Go on ahead.
[00:25] Regis
    Seira and I will be a bit late.
[00:32] M-21
    Pardon me.
[00:33] M-21
    Entry without permission is
    prohibited, even for parents.
[00:37] M-21
    My apologies, but would you mind
    showing some identification?
[00:41] Gejutel
    What about you, then?
[00:43] Gejutel
    What are people such
    as yourselves doing here?
[00:48] M-21
    Who... is he?!
[00:53] Regis
    It is a privilege to see you
    again, Clan Leader.
[00:56] Takio
    Clan...
[00:58] Tao
    ...Leader?
[00:59] Gejutel
    Regis, explain this.
[01:02] Gejutel
    Common sense dictates that the likes
    of these three should not be here.
[01:08] Regis
    No, they are—
[01:09] Gejutel
    Regis.
[01:10] Gejutel
    Have you forgotten your pride as a noble?
[01:13] Gejutel
    Cavorting with people such as these,
    and neglecting your duty as a result...
[01:18] Franken
    Oh, dear.
[01:19] Franken
    What business do you have
    at their place of work?
[01:25] Gejutel
    Frankenstein?
[01:28] Franken
    Long time no see, Gejutel K. Landegre.
SIGN    Frankenstein
[03:06] Raskreia
    Gejutel has left?
[03:08] Ludis
    Yes, he has departed for Japan.
[03:11] Karias
    Is it true that Regis and Seira
[03:14] Karias
    have encountered the one
    from inside the coffin?
[03:17] Rajak
    If they've met someone who seemed
    to be a noble, then it is likely.
[03:22] Rozaria
    What naughty children.
[03:25] Rozaria
    If that's why they've been silent,
    we should really punish them.
[03:28] Karias
    Hey, now...
[03:30] Kei
    Our enemy is the one from inside the coffin...
[03:33] Kei
    The traitor who betrayed the nobility.
[03:35] Raskreia
    Precisely.
[03:39] Raskreia
    Cadis Etrama Di Raizel...
[03:44] Raskreia
    That filthy creature.
[03:50] Rajak
    You were trying to defend Regis
    and Seira, weren't you?
[03:53] Karias
    I wouldn't paint a target
    on myself like that.
[03:56] Karias
    What's so unusual about kids
    not doing their homework?
[03:59] Rajak
    I'd say that's just you, Karias.
[04:02] Karias
    Yes, of course. As you say, Rajak-dono.
[04:06] Rajak
    You've always been soft on those two.
[04:09] Rajak
    Don't let your personal
    feelings overtake you.
[04:16] Rajak
    As clan leaders, our duty
    is to serve the lord
[04:19] Rajak
    and dedicate our lives
    to carrying out her orders.
[04:23] Rajak
    Apprehending the traitor
    should be your first priority.
[04:28] Karias
    I can't stand you Kertia men.
    You're so quick to risk your lives.
[04:32] Karias
    You shouldn't rush to your death like that.
[04:35] Rael
    Brother...
[04:38] Karias
    Rael?
[04:42] Rael
    I heard Seira's name mentioned.
    What happened?
[04:46] Rajak
    Call me Clan Leader, not Brother.
[04:56] Karias
    Oh, boy.
[04:57] Karias
    I think your brother's a bit busy right now.
[05:01] Rael
    Clan Leader, Clan Leader...
[05:03] Rael
    I'm qualified, too.
[05:05] Karias
    Weren't you just released
    from your confinement?
[05:08] Karias
    Better not butt into—
[05:10] Rael
    Don't treat me like a child!
[05:14] Karias
    Well, at least his little
    brother's hell-bent on living.
[05:23] Franken
    What's the matter? Is it that unusual?
[05:27] Gejutel
    Are Regis and Seira living here
    with those humans?
[05:31] Gajutal
    And you?
[05:33] Franken
    Yes, because this is my house.
[05:38] Gejutel
    So it was you, then...
[05:40] Gejutel
    Cadis Etrama Di Raizel-sama.
[05:45] Raizel
    It's been a long time, Gejutel.
[05:48] Gejutel
    I heard that you spent the roughly 800 years
[05:52] Gejutel
    since your disappearance in a deep sleep.
[05:55] Raizel
    Frankenstein has told me that is the case.
[06:00] Raizel
    Ever since Regis and Seira arrived here,
    I foresaw that this day would come.
[06:07] Raizel
    They came here to find me, did they not?
[06:11] Gejutel
    They were sent to investigate upon
    learning that the coffin was found.
[06:16] Gejutel
    There have been great changes in Lukedonia—
[06:19] Gejutel
    the nobles' country—since you disappeared.
[06:22] Gejutel
    No...
[06:24] Gejutel
    It may be more accurate to say, "since
    the previous lord entered eternal sleep."
[06:33] Gejutel
    For nobility, eternal sleep
    is synonymous with death.
[06:36] Gejutel
    After the previous lord's death,
[06:38] Gejutel
    his daughter, Raskreia-sama,
    took over as lord.
[06:43] Gejutel
    Raskreia-sama is searching for you...
[06:49] Gejutel
    as the traitor who drove
    the previous lord to his death.
[06:54] Franken
    What?! On what grounds—
[06:57] Raizel
    What is the present state of Lukedonia?
[07:00] Gejutel
    Many senior clan leaders entered eternal
    sleep along with the previous lord,
[07:04] Gejutel
    and the hole left by the transition
[07:07] Gejutel
    to a young lord and young
    clan leaders remains vast.
[07:10] Franken
    And Seira Loyard is one of them?
[07:14] Franken
    I saw her in possession of a soul weapon.
[07:18] Franken
    Those are weapons that have been
    handed down for generations
[07:21] Franken
    from one clan leader to the next.
[07:24] Franken
    The leader of the Loyard clan, at her age...
[07:27] Franken
    Now it makes sense.
[07:28] Franken
    It seems Lukedonia is drastically
    different from the way I remember it.
[07:35] Gejutel
    Raizel-sama...
[07:37] Gejutel
    Won't you return to Lukedonia?
[07:42] Gejutel
    If you have any intention of
    defending your own innocence,
[07:46] Gejutel
    please return with me.
[07:51] Raizel
    Gejutel...
[07:52] Gejutel
    Yes?
[07:54] Raizel
    I wish to remain here a bit longer.
[08:01] Tao
    So basically, for you guys, a "clan leader"
    is someone super important, huh?
[08:07] Regis
    Yes.
[08:08] Regis
    It's a title bestowed only upon
    the thirteen household heads
[08:12] Regis
    with the highest noble blood.
[08:14] Seira
    Gejutel-sama is the Landegre clan leader.
[08:18] Tao
    So he's your relative, Regis?
[08:20] Regis
    He's my grandfather.
[08:21] Tao
    Ah, no wonder you look so much like him.
[08:24] M-21
    How?
[08:25] Takio
    They're nothing alike in size.
[08:27] Tao
    No, no, no!
[08:29] Tao
    I mean the black streaks in their hair.
[08:30] Tao
    I dunno how I'd feel about that
    as a fashion statement,
[08:33] Tao
    but I hadn't considered
    that it might be hereditary!
[08:36] Takio
    That's true. As a fashion
    statement, it would be hideous.
[08:39] Regis
    I'm not so sure bowl cuts
    or long hair are any better.
[08:42] Tao
    Hey! This is a techno cut, not a bowl cut!
[08:46] Takio
    And I prefer to retain my natural hairstyle
[08:47] Takio
    rather than take scissors
    unnecessarily to—
[08:53] Tao
    Anyway, what we're curious about
    is how he's connected to our boss.
[08:58] Takio
    You're right. The tension
    between them was intense.
[09:01] M-21
    Did something happen between those two?
[09:05] Regis
    I don't know.
[09:06] Regis
    The fact that they even know each other
    was a surprise to Seira and I.
[09:10] Tao
    Oh, really?
[09:12] M-21
    So, Frankenstein isn't the same
    kind of person you guys are?
[09:17] Regis
    It's clear that he's no
    ordinary human, but...
[09:21] Seira
    We aren't certain ourselves.
[09:24] Seira
    In a way, he is even more
    mysterious than Raizel-sama.
[09:32] Gejutel
    I never imagined I would
    one day stay in your home.
[09:36] Franken
    I cannot simply ignore Regis' grandfather.
[09:39] Franken
    Frankly, I wish more than anything
    that you would leave at once.
[09:45] Gejutel
    You never change.
[09:46] Gejutel
    Nor has the way you conceal
    your fangs in his presence.
[09:52] Gejutel
    I will have you know
    that I still don't trust you.
[09:58] Gejutel
    You are still the madman who slaughtered
    many of us nobles in Lukedonia long ago.
[10:20] (Flashback) Knight
    You bastard!
[10:22] (Flashback) Knight
    You think you can defy the Central
    Order of Knights and get away with it?!
[10:27] (Flashback) Franken
    Oh?
[10:28] (Flashback) Franken
    So you're from the Central Order of Knights?
[10:31] (Flashback) Franken
    You should make fine samples, then.
[10:36] (Flashback) Knight
    Wait, are you the "Noble Hunter"...
[10:38] (Flashback) Knight
    You lunatic!
[10:45] (Flashback) Franken
    Struggling won't help you.
[10:48] (Flashback) Franken
    Those chains were made
    especially for you boys.
[10:52] (Flashback) Franken
    How does it feel...
[10:54] (Flashback) Franken
    to be tormented by someone
    you once looked down upon?
[10:59] (Flashback) Knight
    How can someone like you
    possess such power?!
[11:03] (Flashback) Franken
    You find it strange
[11:05] (Flashback) Franken
    that a human such as myself has the power
    that only you nobles should have?
[11:11] (Flashback) Franken
    You really find it so strange?
[11:18] (Flashback) Knight
    No...
[11:20] (Flashback) Knight
    How are you so...
[11:40] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Cadis Etrama Di Raizel.
[11:43] (Flashback) PrevLord
    You still haven't changed your mind?
[11:48] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Living alone in a secluded mansion
    like that must be boring.
[11:53] (Flashback) PrevLord
    You should live here.
[11:54] (Flashback) Raizel
    I decline.
[11:56] (Flashback) PrevLord
    I have a grand room for you.
[11:58] (Flashback) Raizel
    I decline.
[11:59] (Flashback) PrevLord
    And pretty maids—
[12:00] (Flashback) Raizel
    I decline.
[12:02] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Hedonistic feasts—
[12:02] (Flashback) Raizel
    I decline.
[12:05] (Flashback) PrevLord
    I see.
[12:06] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Very well, then, if you insist.
[12:08] (Flashback) PrevLord
    I cannot force my selfish wishes on you.
[12:15] (Flashback) PrevLord
    But don't forget...
[12:17] (Flashback) PrevLord
    that I am concerned about you.
[12:21] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Pay me a visit every now and then.
[12:33] (Flashback) PrevLord
    He left the moment the subject was closed.
[12:36] (Flashback) PrevLord
    He's so antisocial.
[12:37] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Lord, please watch what you say.
[12:41] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Raizel-sama has been tasked with a unique—
[12:43] (Flashback) PrevLord
    But the lord is still superior, correct?
[12:46] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Lord!
[12:48] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Well? You have business with me?
[12:51] (Flashback) Gejutel
    I have new information
    regarding the Noble Hunter
[12:53] (Flashback) Gejutel
    that we have been investigating
    for some time.
[12:57] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Let's hear it.
[12:59] (Flashback) Gejutel
    According to the Central Order knights
    who survived the recent attack,
[13:04] (Flashback) Gejutel
    he appeared out of nowhere
    like a gust of wind,
[13:07] (Flashback) Gejutel
    and felled knights one after another.
[13:11] (Flashback) Gejutel
    And...
[13:13] (Flashback) Gejutel
    without a doubt, he was human.
[13:17] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Human?
[13:19] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Is it possible for a human to have powers
    surpassing those of nobility?
[13:23] (Flashback) Gejutel
    I believe that he obtained
    power equal to ours
[13:26] (Flashback) Gejutel
    by some method unknown to us.
[13:31] (Flashback) Gejutel
    To allow him to remain on the loose
    any longer would prove dangerous.
[13:35] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Hmm... Then you men should go after him.
[13:39] (Flashback) PrevLord
    I want to meet him myself and talk to him.
[13:42] (Flashback) Ragar
    Talk?
[13:43] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Yes. Don't kill him.
[13:46] (Flashback) PrevLord
    Bring him to me.
[13:48] (Flashback) PrevLord
    I will decide what is to be done with him.
[13:53] (Flashback) Both
    Yes, Lord.
[14:27] (Flashback) Knight
    There's nowhere left to run.
[14:28] (Flashback) Knight
    Come quietly with us.
[14:31] (Flashback) Franken
    I refuse.
[14:32] (Flashback) Knight
    Then we have no choice
    but to take you by force.
[14:44] (Flashback) Franken
    Very well, then. Take me with you...
[14:46] (Flashback) Franken
    if you think you can!
[14:59] (Flashback) Knight
    What?!
[15:01] (Flashback) Franken
    My goodness.
[15:02] (Flashback) Franken
    I didn't expect you to be so weak.
[15:05] (Flashback) Franken
    You're not even worth using as samples.
[15:08] (Flashback) Franken
    Die.
[15:21] (Flashback) Franken
    Don't get arrogant, nobles.
[15:24] (Flashback) Gejutel
    It is exactly as you say.
[15:29] (Flashback) Gejutel
    These men seem to have overestimated
    their own strength a bit.
[15:34] (Flashback) Gejutel
    All of you, withdraw and report to the lord.
[15:38] (Flashback) Knight
    Yes, sir!
[15:40] (Flashback) Gejutel
    I am the head of the Landegre clan,
    Gejutel K. Landegre.
[15:45] (Flashback) Ragar
    Leader of the Kertia clan...
[15:50] (Flashback) Ragar
    Ragar Kertia.
[15:52] (Flashback) Franken
    My, my. What an honor it is to meet
    two great clan leaders at once.
[15:58] (Flashback) Gejutel
    You had best accompany us.
[16:01] (Flashback) Franken
    That small fry earlier said the same thing.
[16:03] (Flashback) Franken
    To the lord, is it?
[16:07] (Flashback) Franken
    There's no reason to be surprised.
[16:09] (Flashback) Franken
    Only the lord has the power
    to dispatch clan leaders.
[16:15] (Flashback) Franken
    Oddly, though, for some reason...
[16:23] (Flashback) Franken
    I'm not in the mood.
[16:26] (Flashback) Ragar
    Gejutel, you stay back.
[16:30] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Ragar...
[16:31] (Flashback) Ragar
    If anything happens to me,
[16:33] (Flashback) Ragar
    I already have an heir ready
    to inherit the Kertia clan.
[16:37] (Flashback) Ragar
    And no matter who it is we face,
[16:40] (Flashback) Ragar
    it should never take two
    clan leaders to win a battle.
[16:44] (Flashback) Ragar
    On my pride... here I come!
[16:50] (Flashback) Franken
    Then how about this?!
[17:16] (Flashback) Ragar
    What a predicament.
[17:18] (Flashback) Ragar
    If this goes on too long, it may be
    a challenge to leave him alive.
[17:22] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Ragar, you aren't—
[17:27] (Flashback) Ragar
    I do apologize for brandishing Kartas,
[17:30] (Flashback) Ragar
    but I do so only because
    I acknowledge your skill.
[17:33] (Flashback) Ragar
    Do not take offense.
[17:35] (Flashback) Franken
    So that's a soul weapon?
[17:37] (Flashback) Ragar
    If you already know, that will save us time.
[17:40] (Flashback) Ragar
    You should also know what it means
    when a clan leader wields one.
[17:43] (Flashback) Ragar
    I suggest you avoid any
    further foolish behavior.
[17:48] (Flashback) Franken
    Who knows when I'll be
    in a position like this again?
[17:53] (Flashback) Franken
    This is an experiment...
    so let's see how far it can go!
[17:59] (Flashback) Franken
    Resonate...
[18:01] (Flashback) Franken
    Dark Spear!
[18:18] (Flashback) Ragar
    Is that a soul weapon?!
[18:20] (Flashback) Gejutel
    It feels similar, but it is not.
[18:23] (Flashback) Franken
    You apologized for taking up your weapon,
    but I won't do the same for you.
[18:28] (Flashback) Franken
    Don't be offended.
[18:36] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Ridiculous.
[18:38] (Flashback) Gejutel
    How can a mere Noble Hunter possess
    the intellect to call forth such an attack?
[18:43] (Flashback) Franken
    Don't make me laugh!
[18:44] (Flashback) Franken
    Are you saying nobles
    are free to hunt humans,
[18:47] (Flashback) Franken
    but humans aren't allowed to
    do the same to nobles?!
[18:51] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Nobles hunting humans?
    What are you talking about?
[18:58] (Flashback) Franken
    Your kind can manipulate
    and control human blood.
[19:02] (Flashback) Ragar
    Only if the subject wishes it.
[19:05] (Flashback) Ragar
    We do not form blood pacts indiscriminately!
[19:11] (Flashback) Franken
    Not so many nobles are really that noble.
[19:15] (Flashback) Franken
    There are plenty of barbaric ones who
    control young ladies and children for fun
[19:19] (Flashback) Franken
    and use them to their hearts'
    content, then discard them!
[19:23] (Flashback) Gejutel
    And you intend to punish them?
[19:26] (Flashback) Franken
    Precisely!
[19:28] (Flashback) Franken
    With this power, I will prove that humans
    aren't as weak as nobles think!
[19:40] (Flashback) Gejutel
    He possesses this much power?
[19:46] (Flashback) Franken
    Not now!
[19:48] (Flashback) Gejutel
    What is this?!
[19:49] (Flashback) Ragar
    His power is rampaging out of control!
[19:54] (Flashback) Franken
    Damn it!
[20:01] (Flashback) Gejutel
    It's begun to consume his soul!
[20:03] (Flashback) Ragar
    If he loses any more control over his power,
[20:05] (Flashback) Ragar
    he won't be able to restrain it!
[20:07] (Flashback) Gejutel
    I have no choice.
[20:09] (Flashback) Gejutel
    Show yourself, Regasus!
[20:17] (Flashback) Gejutel
    This is no longer about our pride as nobles.
[20:21] (Flashback) Ragar
    Right!
[20:24] (Flashback) Ragar
    Let's go!
[20:49] (Flashback) Gejutel
    He got away?
[20:53] (Flashback) Ragar
    It would seem so.
[20:55] (Flashback) Ragar
    Let's hurry.
[21:08] (Flashback) Franken
    Damn it...
[21:12] (Flashback) Franken
    I guess the Dark Spear
    is still more than I can handle...
[23:29] (Flashback) Raizel
    Those clothes...
[23:34] (Flashback) Raizel
    are mine.
[23:35] (Flashback) Franken
    I-I'm sorry!
