[00:26] Talisman
I had this gut feeling, if you will.
Something small that bothered me.
[00:31] Talisman
Vichyssoise was one of our trump cards.
[00:35] Talisman
Not many people, even from the Lou
and the Zoa family, could stop her.
[00:40] Talisman
I never thought she would fail.
[00:42] Iska
Should you be saying these things to me?
[00:46] Talisman
Was it you who defeated her?
[00:49] Talisman
Ex-eleventh seat of the Saint Disciples?
[00:52] Iska
I'm not going to answer that.
[00:55] Talisman
This is why I had a bad feeling about this.
[00:59] Talisman
That's why I sent another assassin, but
it seems he hasn't arrived here yet.
[01:05] Iska
Assassin?
[01:06] Talisman
But all is well. I must return
to the royal palace soon anyway.
[01:12] Talisman
Today is a big day—
[01:15] EP SIGN
Last Crusade: Night of the Witch Hunt
[01:16] Talisman
I was still talking.
[01:19] Iska
I don't care.
[01:30] Talisman
It'd be dangerous to let you come any closer.
[01:36] Talisman
The Great Eagre.
[01:43] Iska
My arm will be crushed!
[01:48] Talisman
You evaded before I could capture you.
[01:50] Talisman
You have a lot of experience
for such a young man.
[01:54] Talisman
A destroyer who has spent
much time in the battlefield.
[02:10] Iska
If I move at the same time, I can
jump in faster than the waves!
[02:14] Talisman
It's rare to see an Imperial soldier
who doesn't use a gun, but there's a—
[02:19] Iska
There's a barrier there, isn't there?
[02:23] Talisman
Oh? What did you see?
[02:27] Iska
It was intuition.
[02:29] Talisman
Saint Disciples are truly remarkable.
[02:32] Talisman
An individual that can surpass a group
in this day and age is a huge problem.
[02:39] Talisman
I was waiting for someone like you.
[02:45] Talisman
A wave is a wavelength of dynamic
energy that has acquired a vector.
[02:50] Talisman
It is the very physical quality
that creates mass and acceleration.
[02:55] Talisman
This you must already know.
[02:57] Iska
What?!
[02:58] Talisman
You shouldn't lump all
wave astral mages together.
[03:08] Iska
He can do all this damage via
simple contact with his fist?
[03:15] Talisman
The Vicious Tyrant, Talisman.
[03:17] Talisman
Although this moniker is far
from my true intentions.
[03:23] Iska
Seems like it suits you.
[03:28] Jhin
As a reward for safely
escorting her to the palace,
[03:31] Jhin
we get a sticker that can
hide the boss's astral crest.
[03:35] Jhin
This is becoming a deadly mission.
[03:37] Sisbell
D-Did you say something?!
[03:39] Jhin
Nothing at all.
[03:40] Mismis
Can't you do something using
your astral power, Sisbell?
[03:44] Nene
Like blast everyone away?
[03:47] Sisbell
I wouldn't have hired a
bodyguard if I could do that!
[03:50] Sisbell
But maybe I can buy us some time to escape.
[03:54] Sisbell
Stars, show me your past.
[03:59] Fake Imperial Soldier C
What?!
[04:03] Sisbell
H-How was that? I was able to fool them.
[04:07] Jhin
Yeah, it'll work the first time.
[04:10] Jhin
Either way, we need to leave this palace,
or we'll be surrounded.
[04:15] Jhin
Is there a room on the second
floor that we could jump off from?
[04:19] Sisbell
Yes, maybe the corner guest
room on the second floor.
[04:23] Mismis
Isn't it cold here, Nene?
[04:25] Nene
It's cold, Captain.
[04:28] Mismis
Huh?
[04:29] Grugell
I found you, Imperial soldiers and Lady Sisbell.
[04:37] Grugell
You escaped earlier, but you can't run
for long with Lady Sisbell with you.
[04:44] Jhin
Hey, grandma. You really
are persistent, aren't you?
[04:48] Jhin
Old people should be fast
asleep this time of the hour.
[04:52] Grugell
I would like to do just that.
[04:55] Grugell
I have grown tired of chasing you.
[04:59] Grugell
Hand over Lady Sisbell.
[05:01] Jhin
Pass.
[05:04] Jhin
Let's go!
[05:04] Mismis
Yeah!
[05:04] Nene
Yeah!
[05:04] Sisbell
Yes!
[05:07] Grugell
You little pipsqueaks!
[05:09] Mismis
S-So many!
[05:12] Jhin
Ignore it, boss!
[05:16] Jhin
It feels like we're being hunted.
She shouldn't underestimate us too much.
[05:21] Talisman
I converted the wave energy
into physical acceleration.
[05:28] Talisman
Any astral mage with this type
of astral spirit can do this.
[05:34] Iska
Anyone? You're lying.
[05:36] Talisman
It just requires training.
[05:47] Iska
Just as I thought. It's not the
initial speed that makes him fast.
[05:51] Iska
His acceleration is through the roof.
[05:53] Iska
It's enhanced by the astral spirit of waves!
[06:02] Talisman
Physical conversion of waves.
[06:04] Talisman
It took me six years to create this technique.
And another eight to master it.
[06:10] Talisman
Thirteen years to reach this palace.
[06:13] Talisman
It took me nearly thirty years.
Skillful I am not.
[06:20] Talisman
But you can't get to this
level with a normal mentality.
[06:25] Talisman
Can you understand what I'm trying
to say, young Saint Disciple?
[06:31] Iska
I can't even evade it?!
[06:32] Talisman
We are the same, walking the path of
bloodshed, aiming to master ultimate power.
[06:42] Talisman
Unfortunately, I'm older and well seasoned.
You can see the difference.
[06:48] Iska
Wait.
[06:49] Talisman
What?
[06:54] Talisman
I thought you took a direct hit.
[06:56] Iska
I did.
[06:58] Talisman
Then how can you stand back up?
[07:01] Iska
If I didn't release the
astral art, I was a goner.
[07:08] Talisman
Beautiful! Just facing you gives me the shivers.
[07:12] Talisman
Indeed, a terrifying opponent.
[07:14] Iska
That'd be my line, you con artist.
[07:17] Iska
How frustrating. I never
thought I'd lose in speed.
[07:22] Iska
I've never felt so aggravated in my life.
[07:25] Talisman
What a great stage.
[07:27] Talisman
This palace is built on a hill,
so the sunrise must be beautiful.
[07:33] Iska
A little ahead of yourself,
aren't you? It's still midnight.
[07:38] Talisman
That's why I must witness it.
[07:41] Talisman
Tonight will be the last time
the star, the Lou, will shine.
[07:46] Talisman
The long night will finally come to an end.
[07:49] Iska
Are you saying the queen will fall?
[07:53] Talisman
I cannot say such a thing, but you're
smart to understand what I said that way.
[07:58] Iska
And then what?
[08:00] Talisman
Isn't it obvious? When the starry night
of the Lou ends, morning will come.
[08:06] Talisman
It will be the start of the new world.
[08:11] Kissing
I will eliminate you. Disappear from before me.
[08:16] Mei
Whoa, scary.
[08:19] Mei
I see, this is star-body astral
spirit that interferes with matter.
[08:24] Mei
Isn't that right, missy?
[08:26] Kissing
Do you think that's going to save your life?
[08:30] Mei
I heard second-gen astral spirits
born from the depths of the planet
[08:34] Mei
usually give their owners
a purple-colored crest.
[08:36] Mei
Lemme see it.
[08:38] Kissing
Unfortunately, I am a lady.
[08:40] Kissing
I have no intention of showing you my skin.
[08:44] Mei
Lady? That's some talk coming from a
bloody witch, like you're a human being.
[08:52] Mei
I've always wanted a sample of a pureblood.
[08:55] Mei
I'll find out where your astral crest is,
[08:58] Mei
by ripping off that pretty dress of yours.
[09:05] Kissing
Wonderful. It's as Uncle On told me.
[09:09] Kissing
Imperial soldiers are savages.
[09:13] Kissing
This is good.
[09:14] Kissing
I can do terrible things
without a care in the world.
[09:21] Kissing
Disappear, Imperials.
[09:30] Mei
How about I give you a hard lesson
with shards of glass, missy?!
[09:41] Kissing
She used my astral spirit's automatic
defense to her advantage...
[09:44] Mei
How lame. Your astral spirit looks strong,
but you're a sheltered little girl.
[09:50] Mei
Not knowing how to play mind games
makes you less than a witch.
[09:54] Mei
You're just a doll.
[09:56] Mei
Kill her.
[09:58] Kissing
Do not underestimate the
descendant of the Founder.
[10:01] Captain
Impossible!
[10:02] Imperial Soldier A
Did she block all the bullets?!
[10:05] Kissing
Even the Lous and Hydras don't have
Zoa's control of astral power.
[10:09] Kissing
Oh, that was a slip.
[10:12] Kissing
Uncle On had told me not
to tell anyone about this.
[10:18] Mei
"Ruined King Hurricane," activate.
[10:23] Kissing
Thorns! Rip that woman to—
[10:24] Mei
Didn't I tell you? I'm gonna show you why
they call me the "Incessant Tempest."
[10:30] Mei
Looks like this is goodbye,
my cute little witch.
[10:40] Masked Lord
First, let me express my gratitude.
[10:42] Masked Lord
The fate of this planet
brought us a wonderful guest.
[10:50] Masked Lord
What?
[10:52] Risya
Oops, that was close.
[10:54] Risya
So that's how this is going to play out?
[10:57] Risya
Do you remember an Imperial
soldier called Mismis?
[11:00] Masked Lord
Mismis?
[11:01] Risya
She's a captain from the Imperial
army. You met her at Mudor Canyon.
[11:06] Risya
The one you kicked into the Vortex.
[11:09] Risya
We joined at the same time,
so I've heard a lot about you.
[11:15] Masked Lord
Ah, I remember now. That little lady.
[11:20] Masked Lord
I see. If that's how you're connected,
everything makes sense.
[11:25] Masked Lord
What a surprise, though.
Your friend is at a captain's level,
[11:30] Masked Lord
but you were promoted to Saint Disciple?
[11:32] Risya
Well, yes.
[11:34] Masked Lord
I heard that the Imperial army
is very competitive when it comes to rank.
[11:40] Masked Lord
Many people must be jealous of you.
[11:43] Risya
I'm used to it. After all, this is
my fourth time being 22 years old.
[11:48] Masked Lord
Is that so? Rather than a talented
young lady, you're an old veteran, then.
[11:56] Risya
No, no! I'm a lady!
[11:59] Risya
It's my policy to start over
before reaching my thirties.
[12:03] Risya
Right now, I'm a lady in full bloom.
[12:08] Risya
Now, then, the Eight Great Apostles
gave me a quota of purebreds to capture.
[12:18] Masked Lord
An Imperial soldier that uses astral art?
[12:22] Growley
Allow me to measure the depth of your sin.
[12:29] Nameless
Is this an embodiment of astral energy?
[12:32] Growley
This is an avatar. You have committed a sin.
[12:38] Growley
That sin has become your punishment.
[12:41] Growley
Carelessly attacking me has become your undoing.
[12:47] Growley
Can you escape from your own punishment?
[12:52] Nameless
Punishment?
[12:55] Nameless
Unfortunately, I don't plan
on asking for forgiveness.
[12:58] Nameless
Annoying.
[13:03] Nameless
Pesky thing.
[13:09] Growley
It's useless. This avatar is
immune to all physical attacks.
[13:15] Nameless
A counterattack-type astral spirit?
[13:18] Nameless
Astral energy grows in response to the enemy.
[13:23] Nameless
When it grows to a certain point,
it takes on the form of a beast and attacks.
[13:28] Nameless
The condition for its growth is if
I damage you... and something else.
[13:35] Nameless
There are multiple conditions.
Something that you refer to as "sin."
[13:41] Growley
I'll give you credit. You're pretty close.
[13:45] Growley
I'll tell you one thing.
[13:48] Growley
This avatar will grow indefinitely.
[13:52] Nameless
Ugly astral spirit...
[13:54] Nameless
Its ability to go through physical
objects will be the death of you.
[14:09] Nameless
Die with your astral spirit, demon.
[14:18] Alice
Just as I thought. They're hiding
in the dark to attack us!
[14:25] Alice
How could this be?
[14:27] Rin
Lady Alice! We don't know where
the Imperial soldiers are hiding.
[14:31] Rin
Please be careful.
[14:33] Astral Mage A
You're safe, Lady Alice!
[14:35] Alice
Tell me what you know of the situation.
[14:38] Astral Mage A
Of course! The defense of the
queen's palace is our top priority.
[14:43] Astral Mage B
Lady Alice, please hurry!
Please go to the queen!
[14:47] Astral Mage A
We'll deal with the fires.
[14:50] Alice
No, stop!
[14:56] Alice
You two! Rin, where are the medics?!
[14:59] Alice
Hurry!
[15:01] Rin
Right!
[15:07] Alice
Rin, take everyone to the shelter.
[15:11] Alice
There should be doctors there.
[15:13] Alice
I'll wait here.
[15:16] Rin
But Lady Alice...
[15:19] Alice
I'm calm.
[15:21] Alice
I think I'm calm.
[15:24] Alice
The castle should be well defended.
This area has been hit the worst.
[15:35] Alice
I'll extinguish the fires,
so come back in 15 minutes!
[15:40] Rin
As you wish!
[15:47] Rin
If I'm even a minute late,
[15:49] Rin
please head for the queen's
palace by yourself, Lady Alice!
[15:54] Alice
It's okay. I didn't make the wrong decision.
[15:59] Alice
Even a Saint Disciple can't get to the
queen's palace in such short time.
[16:04] Alice
Everyone, listen up!
[16:07] Alice
I'm going to extinguish the fire all at once!
[16:08] Alice
It's dangerous, so get behind me immediately!
[16:15] Elletear
First, they hit the fuel tanks
in the quarantine warehouse.
[16:19] Elletear
If a large fire was started using that fuel,
[16:22] Elletear
even the best of the palace's elite would
have difficulty putting it out.
[16:27] Elletear
I'm glad the assault went successfully.
[16:33] Minister
Lady Elletear! Lady Elletear!
[16:36] Elletear
The only thing left is Lord Talisman's part.
Hopefully he captured Sisbell.
[16:36] Minister
We're being ambushed by the
Imperial army! Please evacuate!
[16:39] Minister
Lady Elletear, you must hurry!
[16:43] Elletear
Minister...
[16:44] Minister
Y-Yes, Lady Elletear? Come quickly!
[16:47] Elletear
You needn't worry.
[16:49] Minister
Huh?
[16:51] Elletear
You evacuate and head to the shelter first.
[16:54] Elletear
The enemy must be targeting the
queen's palace, so stay away.
[16:59] Elletear
There's no need for
non-combatants to be injured.
[17:02] Minister
B-But what will you do, Lady Elletear?
[17:04] Elletear
I'll go there later.
[17:11] Minister
Please, please be safe, Lady Elletear.
[17:18] Elletear
Now... I wonder if the Saint Disciples
were able to reach the queen's palace?
[17:22] Elletear
It isn't my preference for
many people to get hurt.
[17:25] Elletear
I'd be happy if they can get
rid of the queen quickly.
[17:30] Elletear
I should also get ready.
[17:35] Elletear
Alice, Sisbell, Mother...
[17:38] Elletear
You will probably never understand me.
[17:43] Elletear
This is my own way to cleanse the Sovereignty.
[17:47] Johaim
Queen Nebulis, I don't plan on taking my time.
[17:52] Johaim
Therefore,
[17:54] Johaim
die here and now.
[17:56] Millavair
Fall into the pits of hell!
[18:04] Johaim
The Serene Wind, Milla. Contrary to
that name, your astral art is aggressive.
[18:10] Millavair
That was a decade ago.
[18:14] Johaim
Millavair Lou Nebulis VIII.
[18:16] Johaim
An astral mage with an astral
spirit of air, sub-type of wind.
[18:22] Johaim
You control air itself on a much
larger scale, rather than just wind.
[18:27] Johaim
You were 11 years old when
you entered the battlefield.
[18:29] Johaim
In the ten years since then, you fought
more battles than any other pureblood,
[18:34] Johaim
taking 3% of the Empire's territory.
[18:38] Johaim
Despite being a witch,
[18:39] Johaim
you were the Sovereignty's most
skilled martial artist and assassin.
[18:43] Johaim
You were considered the most powerful
candidate for queen in history.
[18:48] Johaim
However, you've gotten weaker.
[18:51] Millavair
You speak of your imagination
as if it's something you've seen yourself.
[18:56] Johaim
It was actually seen
by the people in this palace.
[19:00] Millavair
I see.
[19:02] Millavair
The guards haven't arrived yet?
[19:04] Millavair
With such a loud rumble,
guards nearby would have noticed.
[19:09] Millavair
One must make choices. It doesn't
matter if my power alone weakens.
[19:15] Millavair
Have the other Saint Disciples infiltrated
the palace and begun fighting?
[19:20] Millavair
If I can protect the nation as queen,
that is the right choice.
[19:25] Millavair
She should already be here.
[19:28] Johaim
Is your plan to wait for the Ice Calamity Witch?
[19:35] Millavair
Bomb Cyclone!
[19:38] Millavair
So there were conspirators.
[19:40] Johaim
It's an information war. I don't intend
to kill you by attacking head on.
[19:45] Millavair
It must be Elletear.
[19:49] Johaim
Prepare to die.
[19:50] Millavair
I think you're underestimating me.
[19:54] Millavair
I have no choice, since neither the
guards nor Alice will be coming soon.
[20:00] Millavair
I don't like the idea of destroying
the Queen's Hall myself,
[20:07] Millavair
but the show's over.
[20:12] Talisman
This is a very, very ancient nation.
[20:16] Talisman
The Lous and current queen hold balance
in the war against the Empire.
[20:22] Talisman
The Zoas continue to scream for
revenge against the Empire.
[20:26] Talisman
The Hydras have grown tired
of this nation's situation.
[20:31] Talisman
What do you think, Imperial soldier?
[20:35] Iska
Is this really just a wave astral art?!
[20:39] Talisman
Truly, you've got great eyes.
[20:43] Talisman
You even saw this coming. Was it
your hearing? No, did you feel it?
[20:49] Iska
Both!
[20:58] Iska
How many large waves are
compressed on his fist?!
[21:03] Talisman
Wonderful. It's as if you have
Sonar from head to toe.
[21:10] Talisman
Why do you risk your life
protecting Lady Sisbell?
[21:15] Talisman
How big a reward did she promise you?
[21:18] Iska
You attacked us first.
[21:21] Iska
Why wouldn't I chase away a violent mob?
[21:24] Talisman
It may be too late, but you have it wrong.
[21:27] Talisman
This is a palace owned by
the Sovereignty's royalty.
[21:30] Talisman
Ordinarily, no one would imagine
Imperial soldiers being here.
[21:34] Iska
Bull. Elletear must have told you.
[21:39] Iska
Why did Elletear betray her own mother?
[21:43] Talisman
What do you think of her beauty?
[21:45] Iska
What?
[21:47] Talisman
If there is such a thing as witchcraft,
that would be what Elletear's beauty is.
[21:53] Talisman
In front of her beauty, even the goddess
herself would want to serve her.
[21:58] Talisman
Her beauty must be a gift from the gods.
[22:02] Talisman
However,
[22:05] Talisman
she was not loved by the planet.
[22:08] Talisman
You misunderstand one thing.
[22:11] Talisman
The goals of Hydra and
Elletear are not the same.
[22:15] Talisman
We simply share the same first
step in realizing our ideals.
[22:20] Iska
And that's to overthrow the queen?
[22:23] Talisman
If we can take out the current queen,
the Sovereignty will temporarily weaken.
[22:28] Talisman
It would give us an advantage in future battles.
[22:32] Iska
Is that what you said to the Empire?
[22:36] Talisman
I'll leave that to your imagination.
[22:39] Iska
Let me answer one thing for you!
[22:43] Iska
This isn't the kind of battle
I want to have with the Sovereignty.
[22:47] Talisman
What do you mean?
[22:49] Iska
Nothing will change if you do
things the way you're doing!
[22:53] Iska
Both nations will continue to hurt,
their relationship will worsen, and that's it.
[22:58] Iska
That isn't it. That isn't
the "end" I'm aiming for!
[23:04] Iska
I don't want the Empire to fall,
nor the Sovereignty!
[23:11] Talisman
Such a romantic! You dream
of a very sweet fantasy.
[23:16] Talisman
You're full of romanticism,
unfit for a destroyer such as yourself.
[23:19] Talisman
However, the other Saint Disciples
and the royals other than the Lous
[23:25] Talisman
were longing for this day to come, I believe.
[23:28] Iska
What does that mean?
[23:31] Talisman
They wanted to compare. The decade-long
question of who is superior?
[23:41] Talisman
The Saint Disciples of the Empire,
[23:43] Talisman
or the purebreds,
the descendants of the Founder?
[23:47] Talisman
They want to clarify,
once and for all, which is better.
[23:53] Talisman
That's what
[23:56] Talisman
this night is about.
