**[00:11] King Inglis**
Do not look so forlorn, everyone.
**[00:15] King Inglis**
I can hardly pass on in peace if
I'm worried about the rest of you.
**[00:20] Minister**
Your Majesty, please, you must recover!
**[00:23] Minister**
The people still need your strength!
**[00:26] King Inglis**
This is my fate.
**[00:29] King Inglis**
My friends, I leave the rest... in your hands.
**[00:37] Alistia**
Inglis...
**[00:40] King Inglis**
Oh, such a sight for sore eyes!
**[00:43] King Inglis**
Divine Alistia...
**[00:46] King Inglis**
I had hoped to see you one
last time before the end.
**[00:51] Alistia**
As did I, Inglis.
**[00:53] Alistia**
Yours was truly a life well-lived.
**[00:56] Alistia**
I can think of no greater achievement
than your efforts to serve the people.
**[01:01] King Inglis**
Oh, no... without your blessing,
**[01:05] King Inglis**
it would have been impossible to found the
Kingdom of Silvare in a single lifetime.
**[01:11] Alistia**
But it was the forthright
nature of your heart
**[01:14] Alistia**
that allowed you to slay so many
monsters and wicked gods,
**[01:17] Alistia**
and become known as the Hero-King.
**[01:20] Alistia**
It seems I chose wisely in
making you my Divine Knight.
**[01:24] King Inglis**
Your words fill an old man
with much pride, divine one.
**[01:30] Alistia**
It is for that reason that I am here today,
to repay you for your extraordinary efforts.
**[01:38] King Inglis**
I am unworthy.
**[01:40] Alistia**
Is there anything you wish for?
**[01:43] Alistia**
If it is within my power, I will make it so.
**[01:47] King Inglis**
Anything, you say?
**[01:51] King Inglis**
Well... if I could, I would
choose to be reborn.
**[01:58] King Inglis**
I have dedicated my entire life
to my kingdom and its people.
**[02:03] King Inglis**
I have no regrets about that, and yet...
**[02:08] King Inglis**
Had I not become king, and instead spent my
life dedicated to honing my martial skill...
**[02:14] King Inglis**
What heights could I have reached?
**[02:17] King Inglis**
I find myself wishing to see that outcome.
**[02:21] Alistia**
Your wish shall be granted.
**[02:29] Alistia**
I will look forward to our
reunion in the distant future,
**[02:35] Alistia**
once you have been reincarnated.
**[02:49] Luke**
Up you go! Look how high you are!
**[02:50] Selena**
Dear, you mustn't shake her like that!
***SIGN*** Serena
***SIGN*** Luke
**[02:54] Selena**
You'll frighten our little Inglis.
**[02:56] King Inglis**
*Inglis?*
**[02:58] King Inglis**
*It seems I truly have been reborn!*
**[03:02] King Inglis**
*And with the same name, in spite of everything.*
**[03:02] Luke**
You're not afraid, are you,
Inglis? Oh, no, you aren't!
**[03:07] Luke**
I have to say, Serena, she looks just
like you. Such a beautiful girl!
**[03:13] King Inglis**
*G-Girl?*
**[03:15] Serena**
I'm sure she'll be a fine lady someday.
**[03:18] King Inglis**
*A... girl?*
**[03:22] King Inglis**
*I'm a girl?!*

**[05:05] Inglis**
* Good grief. I can't even*
* swing a sword as a baby.*
***SIGN*** Inglis Age 0
**[05:11] Inglis**
* But even after reincarnating,*
* my divine blessing is intact.*
**[05:16] Inglis**
*I can feel the aether within me.*
**[05:21] Narration**
Aether is the foundation of
all creation in the world.
**[05:27] Narration**
Everything that exists
is composed of aether,
**[05:31] Narration**
and control over it means exerting
your will over the world itself.
**[05:36] Narration**
It is, in essence, divine power.
**[05:40] Inglis**
* I only had time to master the*
* fundamentals of aether in my past life.*
**[05:46] Inglis**
* And since being reborn, I haven't seen*
* anyone else with control over it.*
**[05:50] Inglis**
* It's also troubling that I can't*
* sense the goddess anymore.*
**[05:55] Voice**
A magicite beast is attacking!
Take cover in the castle!
**[05:58] Inglis**
*Magicite beast?*
**[06:00] Serena**
Chris, we need to escape in a—
**[06:05] Serena**
Was she... f-floating?!
**[06:08] Serena**
I-I must've been seeing things.
**[06:11] Inglis**
*Will this get her to drop it?*
**[06:12] Serena**
It's all right, Inglis.
**[06:15] Serena**
Your father and the others will chase
off the magicite beast soon.
**[06:19] Inglis**
*"Magicite beast."*
**[06:21] Inglis**
* Now, there is a name that*
* captures the imagination!*
**[06:25] Inglis**
* Here's hoping they're vicious beasts*
* that will make satisfying foes!*
**[06:37] Irina**
Serena!
**[06:38] Serena**
Irina!
**[06:40] Serena**
Where are the children?
***SIGN*** Irina
**[06:42] Serena**
Rafael is looking after Rafinha.
**[06:44] Serena**
Hurry, inside!
**[06:46] Irina**
Yes!
**[06:48] Rafael**
Mother. Auntie. I'm glad
to see you're all right.
***SIGN*** Rafael Age 8
**[06:52] Irina**
How has Rafinha been, Rafael?
**[06:54] Rafael**
She's right here. And behaving very well.
***SIGN*** Rafinha Age 0
**[06:58] Rafael**
It'll be all right now, Chris.
**[07:01] Irina**
We can wait here while the knights
chase off the magicite beast.
**[07:08] Inglis**
*That's a magicite beast?*
**[07:11] Inglis**
* Mm. It seems the color of those stones*
* varies between each creature.*
**[07:16] Inglis**
*Do they contain the power of condensed mana?*
**[07:20] Inglis**
* The world seems to have become*
* much more dangerous...*
**[07:24] Inglis**
*Which works out nicely for me!*
**[07:27] Inglis**
*I'm itching to get started!*
**[07:29] Serena**
Come on, settle down.
**[07:31] Irina**
You can't blame her. This is the first
time she's seen a magicite beast, right?
**[07:36] Irina**
It's only natural that she'd be scared.
**[07:38] Serena**
I can only hope that we're rid
of those monsters someday,
**[07:42] Serena**
for the sake of the children...
**[07:45] Inglis**
*You mustn't say such things, Mother!*
**[07:47] Inglis**
*I'm in need of worthy foes!*
**[07:50] Inglis**
*That means I need those magicite beasts!*
**[07:52] Serena**
There, there. Don't be afraid, Chris.
**[07:56] Rafael**
It's so frustrating.
**[07:58] Rafael**
I've already received my Rune,
but I can't do more than watch from here.
**[08:04] Narrator**
*Runes.*
**[08:05] Narrator**
* They are needed to wield Artifacts, the weapons*
* that allow combat against magicite beasts,*
**[08:12] Narrator**
*and are the mark of all knights.*
**[08:15] Inglis**
*Those didn't exist in my past life, either.*
**[08:18] Irina**
Rafael...
**[08:19] Irina**
You have a Special-class Rune.
**[08:22] Irina**
The kind only given to the chosen few
who will represent the hope of all people.
**[08:28] Irina**
You must not fall in a place like this.
**[08:32] Irina**
Do you understand?
**[08:33] Rafael**
Yes, Mother.
**[08:36] Irina**
Even if you have to abandon
everyone else here,
**[08:39] Irina**
you must survive, no matter what.
**[08:41] Rafael**
B-But that's...
**[08:45] Serena**
Sister!
**[08:48] Rafael**
Mother!
**[08:54] Serena**
No!
**[09:07] Serena**
Rafael!
**[09:11] Rafael**
Auntie?!
**[09:12] Serena**
Take the babies and run!
**[09:14] Rafael**
But that sword won't be of any use!
**[09:18] Serena**
Just get the two of them to safety!
**[09:26] Rafael**
Auntie!
**[09:27] Inglis**
*Mm. Her swordplay is by no means lacking.*
**[09:30] Inglis**
* But this magicite beast is more*
* agile than one might think.*
**[09:35] Serena**
What are you doing?! Hurry and go!
**[09:42] Rafael**
Rani, Chris, I'm sorry.
Just wait here for a moment!
**[09:47] Rafael**
I'll help you!
**[09:48] Serena**
No! You need to run!
**[09:51] Rafael**
If I can't protect the people I care about,
how can I help anyone else?!
**[09:57] Inglis**
*Well said, boy!*
**[10:00] Inglis**
* You do not become a hero at*
* someone else's direction...*
**[10:04] Inglis**
* but through the fruit of your*
* own choices, your own actions!*
**[10:16] Rafael**
Auntie...
**[10:25] Inglis**
* He's too gallant a lad to let*
* die in a place like this.*
**[10:29] Inglis**
*I'm living this new life for my own sake.*
**[10:33] Inglis**
* And that means I have*
* no interest in heroism.*
**[10:36] Inglis**
*Yet...*
**[10:37] Inglis**
* I am not disinclined to lend my aid*
* to those with heroic potential!*
**[10:48] Inglis**
*Aether Strike!*
**[11:00] Inglis**
*A fair showing, I'd say, for a baby.*
**[11:06] Rafael**
C-C-Chris?
**[11:10] Rafael**
Wh-What just happened?
**[11:12] Inglis**
*W-Was he awake?!*
**[11:14] Rafael**
I'm so glad...
**[11:17] Inglis**
* You'd do well to think you caught a*
* fleeting glimpse of a dream, boy.*
**[11:23] Inglis**
*Things... should be fine... now...*
**[11:27] Inglis**
* A baby's stamina... was not*
* meant... for battle...*
**[11:28] Knights**
Ma'am! Master Rafael! Are you all right?!
**[11:33] Inglis**
*Oof...*
**[11:35] Luke**
I'm just glad no one's hurt.
**[11:37] Serena**
All thanks to Rafael.
**[11:39] Serena**
And the town wasn't too badly damaged.
**[11:41] Luke**
No, but we need to re-examine
the town's security.
**[11:45] Luke**
If the beast had been a Prismer...
**[11:48] Luke**
It takes only one of those creatures
to lay waste to a nation.
**[11:51] Inglis**
*Well, isn't that interesting?*
**[11:54] Inglis**
*These "Prismer" beasts...*
**[11:57] Inglis**
*will make for fine prey.*
**[12:01] Inglis**
*Something to look forward to.*
**[12:09] Inglis**
* My rebirth seems to have come with quite*
* the darling change in appearance!*
***SIGN*** Inglis Age 5
**[12:13] Inglis**
* In time, I'm likely to become*
* an unparalleled beauty!*
**[12:16] Inglis**
* What I would have done for*
* a granddaughter like this!*
**[12:19] Irina**
Oh, my! Our Chris really does love
looking in the mirror, doesn't she?
**[12:24] Serena**
I don't know what it is. She's so
clever and well-behaved otherwise.
**[12:29] Rafinha**
Chris!
***SIGN*** Rafinha Age 5
**[12:31] Inglis**
Rani!
**[12:33] Irina**
Where's the harm? She *is* adorable.
**[12:36] Irina**
Enough to even dazzle herself, right?
**[12:38] Inglis**
Auntie, I apologize for
that unseemly display.
**[12:42] Irina**
And so well-spoken, too!
**[12:46] Irina**
It's hard to believe she's
only five, like Rani.
**[12:49] Irina**
What kind of lessons made
her turn out like this?
**[12:53] Serena**
We didn't do anything, really.
**[12:55] Inglis**
I, uh, read about it in a book.
**[12:57] Rafinha**
Chris! Let's work hard at practice today.
**[13:00] Inglis**
Right!
**[13:10] Rafinha**
Oh, no!
**[13:13] Inglis**
Are you all right, Rani?
**[13:16] Inglis**
Here, stand up.
**[13:19] Rafinha**
Chris...
**[13:21] Inglis**
You need to brace your hips.
**[13:23] Inglis**
Try to do it like everyone else.
**[13:26] Middle-Aged Knight**
Come now, Master Rafael!
No need to hold back!
**[13:28] Rafael**
Right. If you please!
***SIGN*** Rafael Age 13
**[13:31] Inglis**
* The eldest son of the local lord,*
* the Duke of Bilford.*
**[13:34] Rafinha**
You can do it, Brother!
**[13:34] Inglis**
*Dignified, serious, and dedicated.*
**[13:37] Inglis**
* Everyone expects great things*
* from him as the next lord.*
**[13:41] Inglis**
*And with exceptional martial talents.*
**[13:41] Luke**
Enough! Master Rafael wins.
**[13:44] Luke**
Well done.
**[13:46] Rafael**
Thank you!
**[13:47] Rafinha**
He's so amazing!
**[13:49] Inglis**
* I'd say that the only*
* person among these knights*
**[13:51] Inglis**
* who can stand against him is*
* my father, their captain.*
**[13:55] Inglis**
*I'd love to spar with him someday!*
**[13:58] Rambach**
Greetings, Sir Luke!
**[14:00] Rambach**
Pardon the intrusion.
**[14:02] Luke**
Mr. Rambach!
**[14:05] Luke**
It's a pleasure to have you joining us.
**[14:07] Luke**
Everyone, meet the Rambach Company,
who have joined us for a mock duel.
**[14:12] Inglis**
The Rambach Company?
**[14:13] Rafinha**
Well, I heard that people who trade get
attacked by magicite beasts a lot!
**[14:18] Inglis**
How lucky for them!
**[14:20] Inglis**
Er, never mind.
**[14:22] Rafinha**
And that's why they train with the
knights sometimes to get stronger!
**[14:26] Rafinha**
My brother told me.
**[14:30] Rambach**
This is my son, Rahl.
**[14:33] Rahl**
My name is Rahl.
**[14:35] Rahl**
It's a pleasure to meet you.
**[14:36] Luke**
Likewise, of course.
**[14:38] Luke**
You seem to be the same
age as Master Rafael.
**[14:41] Rafael**
I'm Rafael Bilford.
**[14:43] Rafael**
It's a pleasure to have you joining us.
**[14:45] Rahl**
L-Likewise...
**[14:54] Luke**
That's enough! Rahl wins.
**[14:57] Rafinha**
Wow! He beat ten people by himself!
**[15:02] Inglis**
The knights were dominating at first.
**[15:05] Inglis**
The flow changed completely
once he picked up a sword.
**[15:08] Rahl**
Are you knights out of shape or something?
**[15:12] Rahl**
It would make sense,
**[15:13] Rahl**
given how few magicite beast
attacks there have been lately.
**[15:16] Rafinha**
He sure got snooty fast, huh?
**[15:18] Inglis**
*It was an act all along.*
**[15:20] Rambach**
While we've been having to contest with
those creatures constantly during our travels.
**[15:26] Knight B**
That boy suddenly seems a lot stronger.
**[15:30] Knight C**
It's hard to find your footing against him.
**[15:33] Knight A**
It was the same for me. He must be
really skilled at gauging striking range.
**[15:39] Inglis**
*Are they serious?*
**[15:41] Inglis**
*It's obvious he's using some kind of magic.*
**[15:44] Narration**
The use of mana, a weakened
distillation of aether,
**[15:48] Narration**
as fuel to cause supernatural phenomena:
**[15:53] Narration**
That is magic.
**[15:56] Inglis**
* He's restricting the movement of*
* anyone who makes eye contact...*
**[15:59] Inglis**
*A kind of binding.*
**[16:02] Inglis**
*And a weak kind at that.*
**[16:04] Inglis**
* All it does is hinder the*
* opponent's movements slightly.*
**[16:08] Inglis**
*Yet no one has been able to notice it.*
**[16:11] Inglis**
* It seems the people of this time have truly*
* lost all knowledge and concept of magic.*
**[16:24] Rafael**
Rani!
**[16:29] Rafael**
Chris!
**[16:31] Rafael**
Thank you.
**[16:33] Rahl**
Well, this is a shame.
**[16:34] Rahl**
I came here hoping to
learn from you knights...
**[16:38] Rahl**
But now it's like I'm teaching *you* a lesson!
**[16:42] Rambach**
Come now, Rahl! Let's not be rude.
**[16:47] Rafael**
I'll face you next, Rahl.
**[16:51] Rahl**
It's an honor to face a future holy knight.
**[16:56] Rahl**
Let's have a fair contest, shall we?
**[16:59] Inglis**
*Oh, he's being absolutely brazen.*
**[17:01] Inglis**
Excuse me, Cousin Raf?
**[17:04] Rafael**
What is it, Chris?
**[17:05] Inglis**
I think you should try to avoid
looking at him as much as possible.
**[17:09] Rafael**
What do you mean?
**[17:11] Inglis**
Something strange is going on.
Everyone is moving sluggishly.
**[17:15] Inglis**
And Rahl always positions himself
directly in front of his opponent.
**[17:21] Inglis**
It makes me wonder if
something's going on.
**[17:24] Rafael**
Fight without looking at him, eh?
**[17:26] Inglis**
* I doubt he'd understand if I told*
* him that this fight involves magic.*
**[17:30] Inglis**
*Better to just hint at it.*
**[17:33] Rafael**
Understood, Chris. And thank you.
**[17:36] Rafinha**
C-Chris, my brother can win, can't he?
**[17:40] Inglis**
It'll be all right!
**[17:41] Inglis**
And you can cheer him on
to encourage him, Rani.
**[17:46] Rafinha**
Yeah!
**[17:47] Rafinha**
You can do it, Brother!
**[17:50] Luke**
Begin!
**[18:01] Knight A**
He's pushing him!
**[18:02] Knight B**
Attaboy, Master Rafael!
**[18:04] Rafinha**
Brother!
**[18:06] Rafael**
*I can do this!*
**[18:08] Rahl**
Damn it!
**[18:09] Knight C**
Right there, Master Rafael!
**[18:10] Knight C**
Don't let him recover!
**[18:13] Inglis**
Look out!
**[18:17] Rahl**
I've got you!
**[18:21] Luke**
That's enough!
**[18:23] Luke**
Rahl wins.
**[18:25] Rambach**
Magnificent, Rahl, my boy!
**[18:28] Rahl**
How fitting of a future holy knight,
and the heir to this land...
**[18:33] Rahl**
He's clearly on another level
compared to the other knights.
**[18:39] Rafinha**
He lost...
**[18:44] Inglis**
It's okay.
**[18:47] Inglis**
I'll avenge him.
**[18:50] Rahl**
Charging in without looking
at the opponent...
**[18:53] Rahl**
Can you all accept a holy knight
like this leading you someday?
**[18:59] Rafael**
It was a shameful display.
**[19:01] Inglis**
Well done!
**[19:05] Inglis**
Would you be willing to teach
me a bit before you go?
**[19:09] Rahl**
Oh, come off it.
**[19:11] Rahl**
How am I supposed to fight
a little girl like this?
**[19:15] Rahl**
Go and find some dolls to play with.
**[19:19] Inglis**
Would you rather I explain
what you've been doing?
**[19:25] Rahl**
Wh-What are you insinuating?
**[19:27] Inglis**
I believe you know exactly what.
**[19:30] Inglis**
So, what do you say?
**[19:32] Rahl**
Fine, then! Just don't
cry after you get hurt!
**[19:36] Inglis**
Likewise.
**[19:38] Luke**
Inglis, this is crazy!
**[19:40] Rafael**
He's right, Chris! Don't do it.

**[19:43] Inglis**
No! Young as I am,
I'm my father's daughter!
**[19:47] Inglis**
I must uphold the honor of his knights!
**[19:49] Luke**
As admirable as that is...
**[19:52] Inglis**
If you don't let me, I'm going to tell
Mother about that new vase you bought.
**[19:59] Luke**
Understood! Fight hard, Inglis!
**[20:02] Inglis**
*I'm glad we could come to an understanding.*
**[20:04] Luke**
Begin!
**[20:06] Rafinha**
Good luck, Chris!
**[20:13] Inglis**
* I can dispel this paltry magic with*
* the aether that wreathes my body!*
**[20:22] Inglis**
*I'd win with ease by using aether.*
**[20:25] Inglis**
*But what fun would that be?*
**[20:28] Inglis**
* This will be a pure contest,*
* measured solely in skill with swords!*
**[20:36] Inglis**
* I managed something similar in*
* my past life, at a young age...*
**[20:39] Inglis**
*And now?*

Incredible...

You're incredible, Chris!
**[21:22] Rafinha**
Chris!
**[21:35] Rahl**
I... I give.
**[21:42] Inglis**
Thank you for the bout.
**[21:46] Rafinha**
You were amazing, Chris!
**[21:50] Inglis**
Thank you, Rani!
**[21:59] Inglis**
*Not a bad fight at all.*
**[22:01] Inglis**
* I'd say this merits a passing*

**[22:05] Inglis**
*But I've got further to go.*

*I need to aim even higher!*
**[22:10] Inglis**
*That's the reason why I was reborn!*

***SIGN*** Inglis Age 6
**[00:09] Rafinha**
It's warm...
***SIGN*** Rafinha Age 6
**[00:11] Rafinha**
It tickles a little!
**[00:13] Rafinha**
I think it's safe, Chris!
**[00:15] Rafinha**
It's not scary!
**[00:16] Irina**
Rafinha, don't talk during your baptism!
**[00:20] Narrator**
Baptism is a ritual whereby one is granted
the Rune needed to become a knight.
**[00:26] Narrator**
Runes are divided into ranks:
Special, Greater, Normal, and Lesser.
***SIGN*** Rafael Age 14
**[00:30] Narrator**
More powerful Runes enable one
to use more powerful Artifacts.
**[00:35] Priest**
Look at your hand.
**[00:40] Priest**
The Bow of Light...
**[00:43] Bilford**
A Greater Rune?
**[00:45] Rafinha**
Yay! Look! Look, Chris!
**[00:48] Inglis**
Congratulations!
**[00:49] Inglis**
Now you'll be able to become
a fine knight, Rani!
**[00:52] Rafinha**
Yup!
**[00:53] Priest**
Next, please come this way, Miss Inglis.
**[00:55] Inglis**
Okay!
**[00:57] Rafael**
Chris is sure to get a Greater Rune!
**[01:00] Rafael**
Maybe even a Special Rune!
**[01:03] Inglis**
*I beseech you, anything but that.*
**[01:06] (Flashback) Serena**
Listen to me, Inglis.
**[01:08] (Flashback) Serena**
To tell the truth, I don't want you
to get a Special Rune.
**[01:13] (Flashback) Inglis**
Huh?
**[01:14] (Flashback) Serena**
I can't help but feel they force you to live
and die for the sake of others.
**[01:20] (Flashback) Inglis**
Then we are of the same mind.
**[01:24] (Flashback) Serena**
Really?
**[01:25] (Flashback) Inglis**
Yes.
**[01:27] (Flashback) Inglis**
I have no need for any power
that would force me to live a certain way.
**[01:31] Inglis**
*I've lived one life that way already.*
**[01:35] Priest**
Go ahead.
**[01:38] Inglis**
* So this device fixes the flow of mana*
* and imprints it on the user?*
**[01:43] Inglis**
* The people of this era lack*
* the ability to control mana,*
**[01:47] Inglis**
* but that does not mean*
* they are bereft of it entirely.*
**[01:50] Inglis**
* They've simply forgotten*
* the techniques with which to use it.*
**[01:53] Inglis**
* I assume that having a Rune inscribed by*
* this box allows them to pour their mana*
**[01:57] Inglis**
*into an Artifact and wield it.*
**[01:59] Inglis**
*But that means...*
**[02:02] Priest**
It's finished.
**[02:03] Priest**
Look at your hand.
**[02:09] Inglis**
Nothing happened.
**[02:13] Bilford**
What? Inglis is a Runeless?
That's impossible!
**[02:17] Rafael**
It must be some mistake!
**[02:19] Luke**
Is the baptismal tabernacle broken?
**[02:19] Inglis**
*Of course I don't have a Rune.*
**[02:21] Inglis**
*As a Divine Knight, I use aether, not mana.*
**[02:22] Priest**
But it worked for Rafinha!
**[02:26] Inglis**
* When it attempted to imprint the mana flow*
* on me, I ended up deflecting it.*
**[02:31] Luke**
Without a Rune, she can't
be an official knight.
**[02:35] Luke**
We can't have her succeed me
as captain, then...
**[02:38] Inglis**
I'm sorry for disappointing you, Father.
**[02:42] Luke**
No, no... You didn't disappoint me, Inglis!
**[02:46] Inglis**
Mother, Father, there are things
one can still do without a Rune.
**[02:51] Inglis**
I'm sure Rani will be a splendid knight.
**[02:53] Inglis**
And I shall serve her as her squire!
**[02:58] Inglis**
Even without an Artifact,
I can still protect her!
**[03:04] Inglis**
* This means I can continue to train on the*
* front lines without being promoted...*
**[03:09] Inglis**
*What a wonderful outcome!*
**[03:11] Luke**
That's right... Yes, that's right!
**[03:14] Bilford**
Keep Rafinha safe, Inglis!
**[03:16] Inglis**
Okay!
**[03:17] Rafael**
You're such a good girl, Chris!
**[03:19] Rafinha**
I'm so happy, Chris!
**[03:23] Rafinha**
We can be together forever, huh?
**[03:25] Inglis**
*I can't help but feel a pang of guilt.*

**[05:00] Narrator**
The Prism Flow.
**[05:02] Narrator**
While it has no effect on humans,
**[05:05] Narrator**
this rainbow rain turns wild animals
and plants, as well as livestock,
**[05:09] Narrator**
into magicite beasts that attack humans.
**[05:16] Narrator**
The most powerful of them
all is the rainbow king,
**[05:23] Narrator**
the Prismer, which can level
a nation all on its own.
**[05:28] Inglis**
I finally get the chance to go hunting for
magicite beasts, and they're all weaklings.
**[05:33] Inglis**
When do I get to fight a Prismer?
**[05:37] Rafinha**
They say no one's seen one here
in Ymir for 20 or 30 years.
**[05:42] Inglis**
But there have been sightings in
neighboring countries, or so I've heard!
***SIGN*** Inglis Age 12
***SIGN*** Rafinha Age 12
**[05:46] Inglis**
I'd love to go to another country.
**[05:48] Rafinha**
That sounds scary!
**[05:51] Inglis**
Don't you want to see if it's possible for
someone besides a Holy Knight to beat one?
**[05:54] Rafinha**
You're so extreme, Chris!
**[05:57] Inglis**
*More! Rain more!*
**[05:59] Inglis**
* Give birth to strong magicite beasts—*
* no, to a Prismer!*
**[06:03] Inglis**
*Let me train more!*
**[06:07] Inglis**
What's wrong, Rani?
**[06:09] Rafinha**
It's just strange that a pretty girl
like you is strong enough
**[06:11] Rafinha**
to beat magicite beasts without a Rune.
**[06:14] Rafinha**
I guess some people get all the luck, huh?
**[06:17] Inglis**
That's our little secret, right?
**[06:19] Rafinha**
I know that!
**[06:24] Rafinha**
The rain stopped!
**[06:29] Rafinha**
The Highland!
**[06:30] Inglis**
It's been a while since we've seen it, huh?
**[06:33] Narrator**
The Highland: home of those
known as Highlanders,
**[06:37] Narrator**
and the producer of the Artifacts
and baptismal tabernacles
**[06:42] Narrator**
that allow the people on the surface
**[06:46] Narrator**
to protect themselves and their
livelihoods from magicite beasts.
**[06:50] Narrator**
In exchange, the surface dwellers gift them
crops and materials in massive quantities.
**[06:56] Inglis**
*That didn't exist in my last life.*
**[06:59] Inglis**
* But what happened to the Kingdom*
* of Silvare that I ruled back then?*
**[07:06] Inglis**
*I could find no trace of the answer in books.*
**[07:10] Inglis**
What are you doing, Rani?
**[07:12] Rafinha**
Making a wish!
**[07:13] Rafinha**
They say if the Highland
is visible, it'll come true!
**[07:15] Inglis**
That has to be a superstition, right?
**[07:18] Rafinha**
What's wrong with that?
**[07:19] Rafinha**
Just in case, you know?
**[07:20] Rafinha**
Why don't you make a wish too, Chris?
**[07:25] Inglis**
Fine.
**[07:26] Rafinha**
I wished for Brother Raf
in the capital to be healthy!
**[07:31] Rafinha**
What about you?
**[07:32] Inglis**
I wished for a worthy foe to fight!
**[07:36] Rafinha**
You really do have the soul of a warlord
in the body of an angel, don't you?
**[07:42] Inglis**
I won't deny that.
**[07:44] Rafinha**
You should make a girlier wish!
**[07:47] Rafinha**
Like, for a wonderful boyfriend!
**[07:50] Inglis**
No, no! No way!
**[07:51] Inglis**
* My mind's the same as it was*
* in my last life, you know!*
**[07:54] Rafinha**
That's right.
**[07:55] Rafinha**
I don't want you falling in love
with some guy I've never met!
**[07:59] Rafinha**
The only boyfriend I'll accept
for you is Brother Raf.
**[08:02] Inglis**
*Now there's a terrifying thought...*
**[08:10] Inglis**
*My body is growing up nicely, too.*
**[08:15] Rafinha**
Chris, are you ready?
**[08:17] Rafinha**
Wow, you look so grown-up!
**[08:20] Rafinha**
You're so pretty, Chris.
**[08:23] Inglis**
You too, Rani!
**[08:24] Inglis**
You look really cute!
**[08:26] Rafinha**
If I'm with you, I'll just make you
look good by comparison!
**[08:30] Inglis**
That's not true! You're perfectly lovely!
**[08:33] Inglis**
The tiny Rani I knew has grown up so much...
**[08:38] Inglis**
I'm overcome with emotion!
**[08:40] Rafinha**
Haha! You sound like Mother and Father!
**[08:41] Inglis**
* I've known her since she was*
* but an infant, after all.*
**[08:43] Inglis**
*This must be what it's like to be a parent.*
**[08:48] Inglis**
So a Highlander's coming with
the inspector from the capital?
**[08:52] Rafinha**
Yes, Father was talking about it.
**[08:55] Rafinha**
An inspector comes by once
every two or three years,
**[08:58] Rafinha**
but it's the first time they've
been accompanied by a Highlander.
**[09:02] Rafinha**
They'll be coming to the party tonight, too.
**[09:05] Inglis**
* So a Highlander's coming*
* with a royal inspector?*
**[09:10] Inglis**
* In this country at least, the royal family*
* and noble classes still function as rulers.*
**[09:17] Inglis**
* But it's possible that the Highland*
* wants to get rid of them and rule directly.*
**[09:23] Inglis**
* Maybe what I'm seeing*
* is an early harbinger of that?*
**[09:26] Inglis**
*No, no! I can't fall into my old habits!*
**[09:29] Rafinha**
Everybody's looking at you, Chris!
**[09:32] Nobles**
How wonderful!
**[09:32] Nobles**
She's so beautiful!
**[09:34] Nobles**
Like she walked right out of a painting!
**[09:35] Inglis**
Rani, let me hold on to you...
**[09:38] Inglis**
*The stares of the women don't bother me...*
**[09:41] Inglis**
* But the lustful eyes*
* of the men hurt to look at!*
**[09:47] Inglis**
*In my last life,*
**[09:48] Inglis**
* I'd sometimes stare in awe at beautiful*
* maidens when I attended banquets...*
**[09:52] Inglis**
*Is this how they felt?*
**[09:57] Inglis**
*I truly was uncouth.*
**[09:59] Inglis**
*I know it's too late, but I'm sorry!*
**[10:01] Rafinha**
Father!
**[10:04] Inglis**
Your Grace!
**[10:06] Bilford**
You're both beautiful flowers,
perfect for this ball.
**[10:10] Bilford**
Allow me to introduce you.
**[10:12] Bilford**
This is my daughter, Rafinha,
and my niece, Inglis.
**[10:15] Leon**
So you're the little sisters
Rafael was talking about?
**[10:21] Leon**
Nice to meet you.
**[10:22] Bilford**
Leon here is a holy knight,
serving alongside Rafael.
**[10:28] Both**
A holy knight!
**[10:30] Leon**
I suppose I am!
**[10:32] Leon**
Sorry I'm the one who's showing up.
**[10:34] Leon**
I was supposed to let Rafael have this job,
as a way for him to visit home.
**[10:39] Leon**
But he's too busy.
**[10:41] Leon**
This is Lord Shiony, the inspector.
**[10:44] Shiony**
A pleasure to meet you, beautiful ladies.
**[10:48] Shiony**
And the envoy from the Highland...
**[10:50] Rahl**
It's been a while, huh?
**[10:56] Rahl**
Inglis.
**[10:58] Inglis**
R-Rahl?
**[11:07] Inglis**
*He's the envoy from the Highland?*
**[11:11] Inglis**
*What is the meaning of this?*
**[11:13] Rahl**
You look confused as to how
I could be a Highlander.
**[11:18] Rahl**
But this stigmata is proof
that I truly am!
**[11:23] Inglis**
So you can become a Highlander
without being born in the Highland?
**[11:27] Rahl**
Sure you can.
**[11:28] Rahl**
You just need to contribute to the Highland
in a significant enough way to gain citizenship.
**[11:32] Inglis**
Contribute?
**[11:35] Rahl**
It's simple: money.
**[11:37] Rahl**
I gave almost all of my business
earnings to the Highland.
**[11:42] Rahl**
You need connections with a Highlander
who has the authority, though.
**[11:46] Rahl**
It cost me everything I had,
but it was worth it.
**[11:49] Rahl**
A Highlander holds more power
than any surface-dwelling noble.
**[11:55] Inglis**
I can't say that topic
holds any interest for me.
**[11:58] Rahl**
So what *are* you interested in, then?
**[12:01] Rahl**
You've grown up into a
beautiful woman, I see.
**[12:05] Inglis**
*Spare me those leering eyes!*
**[12:08] Inglis**
I seek only to improve my fighting skills.
**[12:10] Rahl**
And yet, as I hear, you are Runeless!
**[12:15] Rahl**
What good would improving your skills do?
**[12:17] Leon**
Oh, right!
**[12:18] Leon**
There's someone I want you to meet!
**[12:21] Leon**
Why not go see them?
**[12:23] Rafinha**
Leon, who do you mean?
**[12:26] Leon**
Take a guess!
**[12:27] Leon**
Every holy knight has a trusty companion, right?
**[12:32] Inglis**
Are you referring to the ultimate Artifacts?
**[12:34] Leon**
Yup. A Hyral Menas.
**[12:37] Leon**
Every girl looks up to them, right?
**[12:39] Both**
I'd love to meet them!
**[12:40] Leon**
Great! Follow me!
**[12:42] Rafinha**
Okay!
**[12:46] Rafinha**
Are all Highlanders like that?
**[12:49] Leon**
To some degree, yeah.
**[12:52] Leon**
From their perspective,
**[12:54] Leon**
we surface-dwelling humans are a lesser race
**[12:57] Leon**
who can't even protect ourselves
without the Artifacts they grant us.
**[13:02] Inglis**
So they control whether we live or die.
**[13:05] Leon**
Yup.
**[13:06] Leon**
So when you're around them,
it's better to just smile and nod.
**[13:11] Leon**
Whenever I'm around 'em,
I turn into a total suck-up!
**[13:14] Leon**
I'd lick their boots if I had to!
**[13:16] Leon**
Well, maybe not that far.
**[13:18] Rafinha**
A holy knight shouldn't say that!
**[13:22] Inglis**
Rani?
**[13:23] Rafinha**
Holy knights carry the hopes
of everybody in this country.
**[13:27] Rafinha**
They protect us, right?
**[13:29] Rafinha**
If even a holy knight
starts talking like that,
**[13:31] Rafinha**
who's left for the powerless
to turn to for help?
**[13:35] Leon**
Harsh.
**[13:37] Leon**
Sorry, I took the joke too far.
**[13:39] Rafinha**
No, I'm sorry! I spoke out of turn.
**[13:43] Leon**
It's fine.
**[13:44] Leon**
I can tell you're Rafael's sister.
You've got a strong heart.
**[13:49] Leon**
Oh, there she is.
**[13:52] Inglis**
*The Hyral Menas!*
**[13:54] Inglis**
* Those who can transform into Artifacts*
* usable by those with Special-class Runes.*
**[14:00] Inglis**
*The only ones who can fight the Prismer...*
**[14:06] Leon**
Hey, Eris.
**[14:08] Leon**
Stop being gloomy out here alone.
**[14:09] Leon**
Come inside and have fun!
**[14:11] Eris**
I don't want to. That's why I'm here.
**[14:14] Eris**
Leave me alone.
**[14:16] Leon**
Now, now. You have people
who want to meet you.
**[14:19] Eris**
Meet me?
**[14:20] Leon**
Yup. Rafael's younger sister Rafinha,
and his cousin Inglis!
**[14:26] Rafinha**
Hello! I'm Rafi—
**[14:29] Eris**
What were you thinking, you idiot?
**[14:31] Leon**
Oww!
**[14:33] Leon**
You didn't need to slap me, did you?
**[14:35] Leon**
They were looking forward to meeting you!
**[14:38] Eris**
I'm sorry.
**[14:40] Rafinha**
Um...
**[14:42] Rafinha**
Did we do something wrong?
**[14:45] Inglis**
Should we go apologize?
**[14:48] Leon**
No, it's fine.
**[14:50] Leon**
You didn't do anything wrong.
**[14:52] Leon**
I just wasn't thinking.
**[14:55] Leon**
Sorry about that!
**[14:57] Leon**
Why don't I tell you what
Rafael's been up to—
**[15:01] Rafinha**
Wh-What?
**[15:08] Leon**
Don't tell me...
**[15:10] Bilford**
That was Lord Shiony.
**[15:12] Leon**
Just what happened here?
**[15:14] Rahl**
I slew him for his insolence, is all.
**[15:17] Rahl**
He failed to treat a Highlander
with the respect they deserve.
**[15:20] Knight**
I-It's my fault...
**[15:23] Knight**
It's my fault Lord Shiony...
**[15:25] Leon**
What do you mean?
**[15:27] Knight**
Rahl ordered me to visit
his chambers tonight.
**[15:31] Knight**
I wasn't sure what to say,
**[15:33] Knight**
and then Lord Shiony stepped in between us...
**[15:37] Knight**
Rahl created flames out of nowhere...
**[15:41] Inglis**
*"Out of nowhere"?*
**[15:42] Inglis**
* A method that they weren't*
* capable of sensing, then.*
**[15:45] Inglis**
*Magic?*
**[15:47] Inglis**
* He used magic previously,*
* during that sword fight...*
**[15:50] Inglis**
* It was most likely given to him*
* by the Highlanders.*
**[15:54] Leon**
This is a real problem.
**[15:57] Rahl**
Tell everybody he got
sick suddenly and died.
**[16:00] Rahl**
I'm a Highlander. If I tell everyone
it happened, they'll accept it.
**[16:04] Leon**
That's certainly true.
**[16:06] Leon**
Even the king of this country can't
say a word against the Highlanders.
**[16:09] Leon**
Not that he would in the first place.
**[16:11] Rahl**
Which means I can tell His Majesty
that Lord Shiony died of an illness,
**[16:17] Rahl**
but I can also tell him that you
had him assassinated, Duke Bilford.
**[16:23] Rahl**
You know what that means, right?
**[16:26] Rahl**
Now, tell that knight there to do
everything I want her to!
**[16:32] Rahl**
Sell out your loyal knight to save yourself!
**[16:35] Bilford**
Oh, no...
**[16:37] Rafinha**
Father...
**[16:38] Inglis**
Rahl, you've grown into a sick man.
**[16:42] Inglis**
All I feel for you...
**[16:45] Inglis**
is disgust.
**[16:48] Rahl**
Don't get cocky just because
you beat me once before.
**[16:52] Rahl**
I can just as easily ask for you instead—
**[16:54] Inglis**
That's fine.
**[16:56] Rafinha**
Chris, what are you thinking?
**[16:59] Inglis**
Rahl hates me. He was sure
to come after me eventually.
**[17:04] Inglis**
So it's better that he come after me first.
**[17:07] Bilford**
But...
**[17:08] Inglis**
Give me your word that you'll
leave Rani and her alone.
**[17:13] Rahl**
Of course.
**[17:14] Rahl**
Come to the mansion where I'm staying later.
**[17:17] Rahl**
Alone.
**[17:20] Rahl**
That woman shattered my pride...
**[17:23] Rahl**
This time, I'll break her and make her mine!
**[17:28] Inglis**
*Now, what to do?*
**[17:31] Inglis**
*The magic that slew Lord Shiony...*
**[17:34] Inglis**
*I hope Rahl's actually gotten stronger.*
**[17:40] Inglis**
You're...
**[17:42] Inglis**
Eris?
**[17:44] Eris**
Run away.
**[17:47] Eris**
Leon told me what happened.
**[17:49] Inglis**
You came to save me?
**[17:51] Eris**
You're Rafael's cousin, right?
**[17:54] Eris**
I can't just let you do this.
**[17:56] Inglis**
Thank you.
**[17:59] Inglis**
But there's no telling what
Rahl will do if I don't go.
**[18:04] Eris**
You need to care about yourself more!
**[18:06] Eris**
I'll handle this however I can!
**[18:08] Inglis**
How, specifically?
**[18:10] Inglis**
Don't tell me you're
planning on killing him.
**[18:13] Inglis**
That could have consequences for Ymir.
**[18:17] Eris**
You don't need to concern
yourself with that.
**[18:19] Eris**
Just go.
**[18:21] Inglis**
That's not an option.
**[18:23] Eris**
You're a stubborn little girl, aren't you?
**[18:26] Eris**
If you take another step...
**[18:29] Eris**
You'll taste my blade!
**[18:31] Eris**
* It's shameful for a Hyral Menas*
* to be threatening a little girl...*
**[18:35] Eris**
*But I don't have a choice.*
**[18:41] Inglis**
Thank you!
**[18:43] Inglis**
You're giving me the opportunity
to fight you, right?
**[18:46] Inglis**
All right, let's get started!
**[18:49] Inglis**
*A chance to fight a Hyral Menas...*
**[18:52] Inglis**
* This is the perfect opportunity*
* to test my current skills!*
**[18:56] Eris**
Idiot! What are you thinking—
**[18:58] Inglis**
This was your idea, wasn't it?
**[19:00] Eris**
Y-Yes, but...
**[19:02] Eris**
*Has she gone crazy?*
**[19:05] Eris**
*I can imagine why, but...*
**[19:07] Eris**
*Fine! I'll just have to scare her off!*
**[19:13] Inglis**
Impressive!
**[19:15] Inglis**
*Speed! Flexibility! Agility!*
**[19:18] Inglis**
*She's nothing like the knights!*
**[19:20] Inglis**
* But she hasn't brought out*
* her full power yet.*
**[19:24] Eris**
Why do you look so happy?
**[19:26] Inglis**
I love fighting strong people!
**[19:30] Eris**
Your personality's a pain in the ass!
**[19:33] Eris**
*What's going on?*
**[19:34] Eris**
*I'm every bit as strong as a holy knight,*
**[19:37] Eris**
* and she's handling my attacks*
* without a Rune or an Artifact...*
**[19:40] Eris**
*Who is this girl?*
**[19:43] Inglis**
Show me your true strength!
**[19:45] Eris**
I am!
**[19:52] Inglis**
*Impressive, Hyral Menas!*
**[19:55] Inglis**
*This is getting fun!*
**[19:57] Inglis**
*Have I finally found a worthy opponent?*
**[19:59] Eris**
A-Are you okay?
**[20:01] Eris**
I didn't mean to...
**[20:03] Inglis**
Don't ask that.
**[20:05] Inglis**
Am I not sufficient to be your opponent?
**[20:08] Eris**
Th-That's not what I mean...
**[20:11] Inglis**
Eris, can Hyral Menases sense mana?
**[20:15] Eris**
Why are you asking?
**[20:18] Eris**
Surface dwellers shouldn't
be able to sense mana at all.
**[20:22] Inglis**
Please don't worry about that.
**[20:25] Inglis**
So, what's the answer?
**[20:27] Eris**
I can. To a degree.
**[20:29] Inglis**
Great!
**[20:32] Inglis**
I'll show you something
I've been working on lately.
**[20:37] Inglis**
* I'll take the aether that surrounds*
* my body... and convert it to mana!*
**[20:46] Eris**
What is this?
**[20:48] Inglis**
* I can make my power visible to*
* those who can recognize mana!*
**[20:53] Eris**
You're a Runeless! Why do you have mana?
**[20:56] Inglis**
Do you understand now?
**[20:59] Inglis**
You don't have to hold back.
**[21:01] Eris**
Yes. Maybe you didn't need my help after all.
**[21:07] Eris**
I won't try and stop you. Go.
**[21:11] Inglis**
Wait! That's not fair!
**[21:14] Eris**
Wh-Why not?
**[21:15] Eris**
With all that mana, you can protect
yourself without my help, right?
**[21:19] Inglis**
Crap! Why didn't I realize you'd say that?
**[21:23] Inglis**
I am a weak, helpless little girl!
Please, try and stop me!
**[21:27] Eris**
You are not!
**[21:28] Eris**
Go on. The Highlander's waiting.
**[21:31] Inglis**
I shouldn't have done that!
**[21:34] Inglis**
What a terrible blunder!
**[21:42] Inglis**
Eris!
**[21:45] Eris**
What are you thinking?
**[21:47] Eris**
Show yourself, Leon!
**[21:49] Leon**
Well, I do understand
why you'd feel that way.
**[22:02] Inglis**
Leon...

**[01:38] Leon**
Yo.
**[01:40] Inglis**
*Is that an Artifact?*
**[01:42] Eris**
Do you mean to betray us?
**[01:44] Leon**
Something like that, yes.
**[01:47] Eris**
When you said you'd lick a Highlander's
boots if you had to, that wasn't a joke?
**[01:48] Inglis**
* Is he planning to stop us from hurting Rahl*
* as a way to win the Highlander's favor?*
**[01:54] Leon**
Don't be stupid. Of course it was a joke.
**[01:57] Leon**
I'm a holy knight, you know.
**[02:00] Leon**
I'm ready to throw away my life
for the people of this nation.
**[02:05] Leon**
You saw what happened, right?
**[02:07] Leon**
Right now, the Highlanders can do
**[02:09] Leon**
whatever they want, and no one
on the surface can stop them.
**[02:13] Leon**
It's a holy knight's duty
to protect the people, right?
**[02:16] Leon**
But I can't do shit. And it makes me sick.
**[02:20] Eris**
But without the Highland's help,
**[02:22] Eris**
we can't protect the surface nations
from the magicite beasts!
**[02:25] Eris**
There's some things
we just have to accept...
**[02:28] Leon**
I don't like that.
**[02:30] Leon**
I don't want either the Highlanders or the
magicite beasts hurting innocent people.
**[02:34] Eris**
And there's a way to stop them?
**[02:36] Leon**
Ever heard of the Bloodchain Brigade?
**[02:39] Inglis**
No.
**[02:40] Eris**
An anti-Highland guerrilla organization.
**[02:43] Eris**
In other countries, Highlanders
have destroyed entire towns
**[02:46] Eris**
after the Brigade killed
one of their number.
**[02:49] Eris**
All they do is spread chaos!
**[02:51] Leon**
You're only seeing one side of the story.
**[02:54] Leon**
The real goal of the Bloodchain Brigade
**[02:57] Leon**
is to turn their blood to chains of iron
and drag the Highland down to earth.
**[03:02] Inglis**
So you'll defeat the Highlanders,
**[03:03] Inglis**
steal their technology, and spread
it among the people on the surface?
**[03:07] Leon**
You're a smart one.
**[03:10] Leon**
That way, we can keep ourselves safe
from the magicite beasts
**[03:12] Leon**
without needing to suck up
to the Highlanders to do it.
**[03:15] Leon**
The ideal outcome, don't you think?
**[03:17] Eris**
And that's why you decided to betray us?
**[03:19] Leon**
They've been trying to
recruit me for a while,
**[03:22] Leon**
and what happened tonight
was the push I needed.
**[03:24] Eris**
You can't fight the Highland and win!
**[03:27] Leon**
And that's why I wanted
to bring you with me.
**[03:32] Leon**
If they can get a Hyral Menas to research,
**[03:34] Leon**
they might be able to discover how to make
Artifacts without the Highlanders' help.
**[03:37] Eris**
No.
**[03:39] Eris**
I refuse to take part in something that will
lead countless people to their deaths!
**[03:42] Leon**
Want to come with me, Inglis?
**[03:44] Inglis**
I must decline.
**[03:46] Leon**
So you're like Eris? You want
to keep things as they are?
**[03:49] Inglis**
Nope! But the way I see it, if I side with
Eris, I might get a chance to fight you!
**[03:57] Eris**
S-She's crazy...
**[04:00] Inglis**
I can understand what you're saying.
**[04:03] Inglis**
But I've stopped connecting
power with justice.
**[04:07] Inglis**
*I've lived one life that way already.*
**[04:11] Inglis**
If you want to take Eris, come and get her!
**[04:15] Leon**
I saw enough of that last fight
to tell you're strong.
**[04:18] Leon**
It's hard to believe a cute little girl
can be so tough.
**[04:21] Leon**
As an adult, I should go easy on you,
but I'll give you all I've got!
**[04:28] Eris**
Be careful!
**[04:29] Eris**
That's a high-level Artifact that Leon's got!
**[04:32] Eris**
It has a gift that allows it
to command lightning beasts!
**[04:39] Inglis**
*By my eye, about thirty.*
**[04:40] Leon**
Two of you, follow me.
**[04:43] Leon**
The rest, go get Inglis.
**[04:46] Inglis**
*Eris is injured.*
**[04:49] Inglis**
* He means to stall me, and then spirit*
* her away while I am thus occupied.*
**[04:53] Inglis**
*A shrewd stratagem!*
**[04:58] Eris**
If you hit them with a strong attack,
they'll explode!
**[05:03] Inglis**
You sliced it in half? From that distance?
**[05:05] Inglis**
Next time we fight, use that skill!
**[05:08] Eris**
No!
**[05:09] Eris**
I'm not like you!
I don't fight because I enjoy it!
**[05:14] Leon**
You can't fire that one off
very often, can you?
**[05:17] Leon**
You used it just to tell
Inglis to be careful, huh?
**[05:20] Leon**
That was nice of you.
**[05:22] Leon**
So you're a tsundere, huh?
**[05:24] Eris**
Shut up!
**[05:25] Inglis**
Oh, I hadn't realized!
**[05:27] Inglis**
Hang on! I'll come help you!
**[05:45] Eris**
Idiot! I just said...
**[05:54] Eris**
Wh-What happened?
**[05:55] Leon**
What's going on?
**[05:57] Inglis**
I figured it out, Eris!
**[05:59] Inglis**
If you can't dodge their
explosions at close range,
**[06:02] Inglis**
then you just need to boost
your defense so much...
**[06:08] Inglis**
that the explosions don't hurt you, right?
**[06:10] Eris**
I was trying to tell you
to attack from a distance!
**[06:13] Inglis**
This is faster, though!
**[06:16] Inglis**
* I can surround myself with waves of*
* compressed aether—an Aether Shell—*
**[06:20] Inglis**
*to absorb the blast wave from the explosions!*
**[06:29] Inglis**
Sorry to keep you waiting!
**[06:31] Eris**
You're dreadful.
**[06:33] Eris**
How could you tell me to use my full strength
when you weren't using yours?
**[06:37] Inglis**
That's not true.
**[06:39] Inglis**
* The flaw in this technique is that*
* it can't be maintained for long.*
**[06:43] Leon**
You're incredible, kid.
**[06:45] Leon**
I don't think either Eris or I
could handle you alone.
**[06:51] Leon**
Which means you're a monster
on par with a Prismer.
**[06:55] Inglis**
Yes! I'm training to get to the point
where I can defeat one on my own!
**[06:59] Eris**
Are you serious?
**[07:01] Leon**
It's good to dream big!
**[07:03] Leon**
Maybe you'll be invincible in the future,
**[07:05] Leon**
but for now, I'm just going to
hope that you've got a weakness.
**[07:07] Leon**
For example, you can't keep that little
trick of yours up for long, can you?
**[07:13] Inglis**
*He's sharp. And strong of conviction.*
**[07:17] Inglis**
* In my previous life, he would have*
* been one of my most trusted men.*
**[07:20] Inglis**
And if that's true?
**[07:22] Leon**
What else? We see who breaks first!
**[07:29] Inglis**
Not happening.
**[07:30] Leon**
Seriously?
**[07:32] Inglis**
It's not nice to stare at a girl's legs.
**[07:37] Leon**
You're the one shoving them in my face!
**[07:44] Inglis**
I said, not happening!
**[07:51] Inglis**
Rani!
**[08:04] Eris**
A magicite beast!
**[08:13] Inglis**
Rani!
**[08:14] Inglis**
*I won't let her be harmed!*
**[08:16] Inglis**
*I will protect Rani, no matter what!*
**[08:19] Inglis**
* To master the blade, I decided to*
* live this life beholden to none...*
**[08:25] Inglis**
*But this is the one promise I made to myself!*
**[08:32] Inglis**
*My vow as "Inglis Eucus"!*
**[08:37] Inglis**
Rani, are you okay?
**[08:40] Rafinha**
Thank you, Chris!
**[08:42] Inglis**
What are you doing here?
**[08:44] Rafinha**
It wouldn't be right to make you
do this all by yourself!
**[08:49] Rafinha**
So I was going to go on ahead
and teach Rahl a lesson myself.
**[08:53] Rafinha**
But when I was inside, waiting,
**[08:56] Rafinha**
he suddenly started to scream in pain,
and then he turned into that thing...
**[09:01] Inglis**
*That's Rahl?*
**[09:03] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[09:06] Inglis**
*That's my name...*
**[09:08] Inglis**
But how?
**[09:10] Inglis**
I've never heard of a human
becoming a magicite beast!
**[09:13] Leon**
I drugged him.
**[09:16] Eris**
Leon!
**[09:17] Rafinha**
What do you mean?
**[09:19] Leon**
It's called Prism Powder.
**[09:21] Leon**
A drug made of condensed
Prism Flow, they said.
**[09:26] Leon**
The Bloodchain Brigade created it.
**[09:28] Leon**
They gave me some last time
they tried to recruit me.
**[09:31] Leon**
It's harmless to surface people,
but if you use it on a Highlander...
**[09:34] Leon**
Well, you can see for yourselves.
**[09:36] Eris**
There's no way to cure him?
**[09:38] Leon**
Of course not.
**[09:39] Leon**
In any case, he deserves a miserable death.
**[09:43] Leon**
Anyway, I'll be going.
**[09:46] Leon**
Between you and Inglis, he's no threat.
**[09:51] Leon**
Explode!
**[09:58] Inglis**
He got away.
**[10:00] Rafinha**
What's going on?
**[10:02] Rafinha**
Why is Leon...
**[10:03] Inglis**
I'll explain later.
**[10:05] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[10:08] Inglis**
* It may be what he deserves, but I still*
* feel pity seeing him in this state.*
**[10:12] Inglis**
I'll at least put you down
without making you suffer!
**[10:16] Rafinha**
Chris!
**[10:17] Inglis**
* There's only one way*
* to end this in a single strike.*
**[10:22] Inglis**
* But if I were to do that here,*
* it would raze not only the mansion*
**[10:26] Inglis**
*but also a large chunk of the town.*
**[10:28] Inglis**
* Is there a means by which*
* the townsfolk may be spared?*
**[10:38] Inglis**
*That's it!*
**[10:42] Bilford**
Rafinha! Inglis!
**[10:43] Bilford**
Are you all right?
**[10:44] Rafinha**
Father! You came!
**[10:47] Bilford**
I'm sorry! I was wrong!
**[10:50] Bilford**
I should never have left the two of you
to shoulder this on your own!
**[10:53] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[10:56] Bilford**
A magicite beast?
**[10:57] Ada**
Don't let it leave the grounds!
**[10:59] Ada**
Split up!
**[11:00] Inglis**
Wait!
**[11:01] Inglis**
Eris is going to help us!
**[11:04] Inglis**
Eris!
**[11:07] Eris**
What are you planning on doing?
**[11:09] Inglis**
Follow my lead!
**[11:11] Inglis**
We'll kick it!
**[11:12] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[11:32] Bilford**
I-It landed all the way out of the city.
**[11:35] Inglis**
Way to go, Eris!
**[11:37] Inglis**
You're so powerful!
**[11:38] Eris**
What are you saying?
**[11:40] Eris**
I'm not strong enough to kick it that far.
**[11:42] Inglis**
Follow. My. Lead.
**[11:48] Inglis**
Now, let's finish this!
**[11:52] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[11:57] Inglis**
It's still standing.
**[11:59] Eris**
What was that you just did?
**[12:02] Eris**
You made it look like I was
the one who kicked it...
**[12:04] Rafinha**
Chris doesn't want people
knowing about her power.
**[12:08] Rafinha**
If people knew there was somebody who could
defeat a magicite beast without a Rune,
**[12:12] Rafinha**
it would cause chaos, she says.
**[12:13] Eris**
I see.
**[12:15] Inglis**
*That's the excuse I gave her,*
**[12:17] Inglis**
* but the truth is, I just don't want to be*
* stuck with the duty of protecting the town!*
**[12:22] Eris**
So, what do we do?
**[12:23] Inglis**
Eris, is that magicite beast
as strong as a Prismer?
**[12:27] Eris**
No.
**[12:28] Eris**
It's strong, I think, but it's like the
difference between an adult and a child.
**[12:32] Inglis**
So I need to be able to defeat it in
one hit if I want to fight a Prismer.
**[12:40] Rafinha**
Chris!
**[12:40] Eris**
What are you doing?
**[12:42] Inglis**
Just watch!
**[12:45] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[12:53] Eris**
What is that power she's using?
**[12:55] Inglis**
*It's been twelve years since then...*
**[12:58] Inglis**
* This is the perfect chance to test the power*
* I've spent this whole time training!*
**[13:04] Rahl**
Inglis!
**[13:08] Inglis**
Rahl... Goodbye.
**[13:13] Inglis**
Aether...
**[13:14] Inglis**
Strike!
**[13:33] Eris**
W-Wow!
**[13:35] Rafinha**
That's my Chris!
**[13:41] Rafinha**
Chris!
**[13:42] Eris**
You okay?
**[13:44] Inglis**
I'm a little tired, I think.
**[13:47] Inglis**
I don't have enough stamina.
Gotta train more.
**[13:50] Eris**
You're crazy...
**[13:52] Inglis**
What you said was right, Rani.
**[13:55] Rafinha**
What did I say?
**[13:57] Inglis**
If you make a wish upon the Highland,
it'll come true.
**[14:00] Inglis**
Today's fight was a pretty good one.
**[14:05] Eris**
I'll tell everyone that
this was Leon's doing,
**[14:08] Eris**
and that he betrayed us
for the Bloodchain Brigade.
**[14:10] Eris**
I'll make sure nobody blames you or Ymir.
**[14:14] Rafinha**
Please do!
**[14:16] Inglis**
And tell everyone that it was you
who defeated the magicite beast, too.
**[14:20] Eris**
Well, if that's what you want, but...
**[14:24] Inglis**
But?
**[14:25] Eris**
You owe me one.
**[14:27] Eris**
Repay that debt someday.
**[14:29] Inglis**
Okay, got it!
**[14:32] Eris**
Goodbye.
**[14:33] Inglis**
Um, may I ask something?
**[14:36] Eris**
What is it?
**[14:37] Inglis**
When we were introduced at the party,
you seemed upset about something.
**[14:42] Inglis**
Why was that?
**[14:45] Eris**
Sorry.
**[14:47] Eris**
You may find out someday,
but I don't want to say it.
**[14:52] Eris**
I don't want people finding out
if I can help it.
**[15:01] Rafinha**
Here I go, Chris!
**[15:02] Inglis**
Okay, Rani!
***SIGN*** Rafinha Age 15
**[15:14] Rafinha**
Wow!
**[15:15] Rafinha**
I doubled the number of arrows, too!
**[15:18] Inglis**
Yeah! Your bow's getting
stronger and stronger!
***SIGN*** Inglis Age 15
**[15:21] Inglis**
It's worth dodging!
**[15:23] Rafinha**
What does "worth dodging" mean?
**[15:25] Inglis**
Oh, it's time to go!
**[15:28] Rafinha**
No way! I'm not packed!
**[15:28] Narrator**
On this day, 15-year-old Inglis and
Rafinha would set out for the capital.
**[15:31] Inglis**
Rani, you silly girl.
**[15:35] Narrator**
They were to enroll in the knights'
academy in the capital city of Kyral.
**[15:40] Bilford**
Take good care of Rafinha.
**[15:43] Inglis**
I will, Your Grace!
**[15:44] Rafinha**
If any boys go after her, drive them off!
**[15:48] Inglis**
Leave it to me!
**[15:50] Narrator**
Rafinha would train to be a knight,
and Inglis, to be her squire.
**[16:00] Narrator**
They would leave behind the home
they'd known for their whole lives,
**[16:04] Narrator**
and make the month-long
journey to the capital.
***SIGN*** Town of Nova
**[16:11] Rafinha**
The ruler of this town is a Highlander?
**[16:14] Innkeeper**
Yup. They just took over last year.
**[16:18] Rafinha**
And they haven't done
anything terrible, right?
**[16:21] Innkeeper**
Not at all!
**[16:22] Innkeeper**
If anything, life's better
than it was under our last ruler.
**[16:26] Innkeeper**
All the townspeople are grateful.
**[16:29] Rafinha**
I see...
**[16:32] Rafinha**
I guess not all Highlanders are bad.
**[16:36] Inglis**
Yeah.
**[16:38] Rafinha**
Traveling is so fun!
**[16:40] Rafinha**
There's so much good food everywhere!
**[16:43] Inglis**
Yup.
**[16:43] Inglis**
But if we don't cut back a little,
we're going to run low on funds.
**[16:47] Rafinha**
Huh? But it's only been ten days
since we left Ymir!
**[16:52] Rafinha**
This is because you eat so much, Chris.
**[16:56] Inglis**
You too! You eat enough
for four people every meal!
**[17:00] Rafinha**
But without money, we can't
eat yummy food on our trip!
**[17:05] Innkeep**
Why not go help at the castle?
**[17:09] Inglis**
The castle?
**[17:10] Innkeep**
Our ruler is hiring knights and mercenaries
to help with magicite beast attacks.
**[17:17] Innkeep**
You two are both knights,
or so it seems to me.
**[17:20] Inglis**
They're hiring mercenaries, huh?
**[17:23] Rafinha**
Sounds like a job for us!
**[17:27] Rafinha**
This feels so good!
**[17:29] Rafinha**
The hiring exam was easy, huh?
**[17:32] Inglis**
Sure was.
**[17:35] Inglis**
We just had to fight a few knights.
**[17:39] Rafinha**
They're giving us the good guest rooms, too!
**[17:42] Rafinha**
And the bath is huge!
**[17:46] Rafinha**
What's wrong?
**[17:47] Inglis**
No, it's nothing.
**[17:50] Inglis**
* Something has been bothering me*
* ever since I arrived.*
**[17:53] Inglis**
*The flow of mana seems strange.*
**[17:56] Inglis**
* It's like a small amount of mana is being*
* drawn away from beneath everyone's feet.*
**[18:01] Inglis**
*Like it's being drained...*
**[18:04] Rafinha**
Chris, I'll wash your back!
**[18:07] Inglis**
O-Okay!
**[18:10] Rafinha**
You're so lucky, Chris.
**[18:12] Rafinha**
You have big breasts, and they're so pretty!
**[18:15] Rafinha**
And a nice round butt, too!
**[18:17] Inglis**
Don't say that... It's embarrassing.
**[18:21] Rafinha**
I've got the body of a little girl.
So I'm jealous!
**[18:25] Rafinha**
It's not fair.
**[18:29] Rafinha**
They're so big and soft!
**[18:31] Rafinha**
I wish mine were like that!
**[18:32] Inglis**
Let me go!
**[18:34] Seilyn**
You look like you're having fun.
**[18:36] Seilyn**
Good evening.
**[18:37] Both**
G-Good evening.
**[18:42] Seilyn**
What's wrong?
**[18:43] Inglis**
You're a Highlander?
**[18:46] Seilyn**
Yes. I'm sorry for not
introducing myself earlier.
**[18:49] Seilyn**
I'm the magistrate of Nova, Seilyn.
**[18:52] Inglis**
"Magistrate"? You're the town's ruler!
**[18:55] Rafinha**
I-I'm sorry!
**[18:57] Rafinha**
So this bath is for the ruler?!
**[18:59] Inglis**
We didn't know...
**[19:01] Seilyn**
It's fine.
**[19:03] Seilyn**
I heard that a knight with a Greater Rune
**[19:05] Seilyn**
and another warrior had arrived,
so I wanted to meet them.
**[19:10] Miyumi**
Lady Seilyn!
**[19:12] Rino**
We want to take a bath too!
**[19:15] Mimoza**
Rino! Miyumi! Chiko!
**[19:17] Mimoza**
You know better than to interrupt
our ruler when she's talking!
**[19:20] Seilyn**
It's all right, Mimoza.
**[19:22] Seilyn**
Come in, girls!
**[19:23] Girls**
Okay!
**[19:25] Rino**
Me first!
**[19:26] Chiko**
No, me!
**[19:27] Miyumi**
Wait!
**[19:29] Mimoza**
Those kids...
**[19:30] Seilyn**
I know it must be hard for you.
**[19:32] Mimoza**
Not at all. I only ever had a son of my own,
so it's nice to have little girls around.
**[19:39] Rafinha**
Those girls...
**[19:42] Seilyn**
They're orphans. I couldn't just
leave them on the streets.
**[19:46] Rafinha**
Wow, that's wonderful!
**[19:47] Rafinha**
That's how a true ruler should be!
**[19:50] Seilyn**
Thank you.
**[19:51] Inglis**
Um, I have a question.
**[19:54] Seilyn**
Go ahead.
**[19:55] Inglis**
The flow of mana in this city
seems strange, somehow.
**[19:59] Inglis**
Is there a reason for that?
**[20:01] Seilyn**
I'm sorry. I don't know anything about that.
**[20:04] Inglis**
I see.
**[20:05] Inglis**
* If there's some powerful warrior*
* underground draining everyone's power,*
**[20:09] Inglis**
*I hope I get to fight them!*
**[20:12] Seilyn**
How long will you be staying?
**[20:15] Rafinha**
We can't stay that long.
**[20:17] Rafinha**
We'll be enrolling in the knights' academy
in the capital.
**[20:20] Seilyn**
I see.
**[20:22] Inglis**
Is that a problem?
**[20:23] Seilyn**
There's something I'd like your help with.
**[20:27] Rafinha**
Just say the word!
**[20:29] Inglis**
If there's something we can help with...
**[20:32] Seilyn**
Even if it involves fighting not
magicite beasts but people?
**[20:39] (Flashback) Seilyn**
The knights who served under the
old ruler were a wicked bunch,
**[20:43] (Flashback) Seilyn**
and I fired them all a little while ago.
**[20:46] (Flashback) Seilyn**
Their violence toward the
townspeople had become a problem.
**[20:51] (Flashback) Seilyn**
They've all joined together,
and they seem to be planning something.
**[20:57] (Flashback) Seilyn**
Some of the knights I sent out
on patrol have been attacked.
**[21:02] (Flashback) Seilyn**
I want to deal with them all at once,
**[21:05] (Flashback) Seilyn**
before something happens to
endanger the townspeople.
**[21:08] (Flashback) Seilyn**
I know where their hideout is.
**[21:11] Rafinha**
Chris...
**[21:12] Inglis**
There's one hundred, at a minimum.
**[21:15] Rafinha**
There he is!
**[21:18] Hawker**
I knew if I caused enough trouble
in town, you'd come eventually.
**[21:22] Hawker**
Welcome.
**[21:23] Seilyn**
Hawker, the last knight commander.
**[21:25] Seilyn**
He's the leader.
**[21:28] Hawker**
You can't possibly beat this many,
Miss High-and-Mighty Highlander.
**[21:34] Rafinha**
Quality over quantity!
**[21:36] Rafinha**
Chris, preemptive attack!
**[21:38] Inglis**
Don't kill them, okay, Rani?
**[21:41] Rafinha**
I'll just blow them all away!
**[21:43] Hawker**
Wh-What? A Greater Artifact?
**[21:47] Rafinha**
Burst!
**[21:51] Sistia**
Sorry. I'm going to have to take you down.
**[21:57] Sistia**
Lament your own poor fortune
that I happened to be here today.
**[22:04] Inglis**
*This intensity... It's just like Eris!*
**[22:09] Inglis**
*She's a Hyral Menas!*

**[00:05] Inglis**
*She's a Hyral Menas!*
**[00:07] Hawker**
Get 'em!
**[00:10] Inglis**
*Truly fortune favors me, that a Hyral Menas should be among my opponents!*
**[00:15] Inglis**
* Could there be any better way*
* to test the fruits of my training?*
**[00:19] Inglis**
You're a Hyral Menas, right?
**[00:22] Rani**
A Hyral Menas?
**[00:24] Inglis**
Rani, protect Seilyn and the others.
**[00:28] Inglis**
I'll handle her!
**[00:30] Rani**
Y-Yeah...
**[00:32] Rani**
You sure do look happy at times like these.
**[00:35] Inglis**
Oh, you can tell?
**[00:37] Rani**
You're grinning from ear to ear.
**[00:39] Inglis**
A-Am I?
**[00:41] Inglis**
Anyway, keep them all safe, okay?
**[00:43] Rani**
Got it!
**[00:45] Inglis**
I ask that you fight me instead.
**[00:47] Sistia**
Is this some kind of joke?
**[00:49] Sistia**
A weak girl like you
stands no chance against me.
**[00:55] Inglis**
*Now, I'll just convert my aether to mana...*

What?

**[02:34] Seilyn**
*Impossible...*
**[02:35] Seilyn**
*Inglis's mana is this strong?*
**[02:40] Rani**
Burst! Shiny Flow!
**[02:52] Inglis**
Please don't hold back.
**[02:54] Sistia**
Very well.
**[02:55] Sistia**
I've been bored lately without
any good foes to fight.
**[03:00] Inglis**
*She's so aggressive! I love it!*
**[03:03] Inglis**
*I'm liking her more and more by the second!*
**[03:06] Inglis**
I think we'll get along.
**[03:08] Inglis**
I was just thinking the same thing.
**[03:10] Sistia**
Bratty little girl...
**[03:13] Sistia**
Draw your sword.
**[03:15] Inglis**
That won't be necessary.
**[03:16] Sistia**
What?
**[03:18] Inglis**
It's uselessly dull.
**[03:20] Sistia**
Time to find out if your words are true.
**[03:30] Sistia**
An ordinary knight would've been run through
before they could move a muscle.
**[03:35] Sistia**
Of course, if you couldn't dodge
this much, it'd be no fun at all!
**[03:40] Inglis**
* She's maintaining her distance at all times,*
* even as she attacks with her spear!*
**[03:45] Inglis**
*Very good!*
**[03:49] Sistia**
* She keeps closing the distance*
* with each attack I make.*
**[03:55] Inglis**
You're out of room to fall back.
**[04:00] Inglis**
Nice attack!
**[04:04] Inglis**
Mine wasn't half bad either.
**[04:10] Inglis**
* Very good. She's strong enough to stand up*
* right after a hit like that.*
**[04:15] Inglis**
*And her desire to fight hasn't dulled at all!*
**[04:20] Inglis**
*Excellent!*
**[04:21] Sistia**
You have so much power.
**[04:25] Sistia**
Why are you serving a Highlander?
**[04:27] Sistia**
Her kind are trying
to steal away the surface.
**[04:30] Sistia**
You're not just letting that happen.
You're actively helping them.
**[04:34] Inglis**
Well, Lady Seilyn seems nice.
**[04:38] Inglis**
And the people in town seemed to like her.
**[04:42] Sistia**
If you only look at what's
happening on the surface, sure.
**[04:45] Inglis**
Surface?
**[04:46] Sistia**
You didn't notice something
wrong about the town?
**[04:49] Inglis**
The flow of mana?
**[04:52] Inglis**
What about it?
**[04:54] Sistia**
If you noticed, then look into it yourself.
**[04:57] Sistia**
And realize for yourself
how foolish your deeds are.
**[05:00] Inglis**
I'd be lying if I said
I wasn't a bit curious.
**[05:03] Inglis**
But unfortunately,
I'm not here to play hero!
**[05:08] Inglis**
I was just helping her to earn some money
after we ate too much and spent it all.
**[05:13] Sistia**
To earn money?
**[05:15] Inglis**
And thanks to that, I got to fight you!
**[05:17] Inglis**
So I'm grateful to all that food I ate.
**[05:20] Sistia**
What use is power without justice?
**[05:24] Inglis**
I get to have fun! That's all!
**[05:26] Sistia**
Fool!
**[05:29] Sistia**
I refuse to let somebody
like you have such power!
**[05:38] Sistia**
You did well to dodge that.
**[05:40] Inglis**
*An attack that ignores space and distance...*
**[05:43] Inglis**
*So this is her true, hidden power.*
**[05:47] Inglis**
*Now this is getting interesting!*
**[05:54] Sistia**
She keeps moving around...
**[05:58] Inglis**
*I've been waiting for this!*
**[06:01] Inglis**
So, what will you do now?
**[06:03] Sistia**
Fool! You've also stopped moving!
**[06:07] Inglis**
*So she can kick, not just use her spear?*
**[06:10] Inglis**
*She knew what I'd do, too...*
**[06:14] Sistia**
Now you're mine!
**[06:18] Sistia**
What?
**[06:26] Inglis**
That was a good fight, huh?
**[06:28] Inglis**
I had more fun than I thought I would.
**[06:34] Sistia**
How will I ever face them now?
**[06:37] Rani**
Chris!
**[06:39] Rani**
I dealt with the enemies outside!
**[06:44] Rani**
Chris...
**[06:45] Inglis**
Rani!
**[06:47] Sistia**
I can't let myself be captured here.
**[06:50] Sistia**
Let me go, if you value her life.
**[06:56] Rani**
Chris...
**[07:00] Inglis**
Go, then.
**[07:04] Inglis**
But may I say one thing?
**[07:08] Inglis**
You're free to do whatever
you want when fighting me.
**[07:11] Inglis**
Flee as many times as you like,
if you think things aren't going your way.
**[07:16] Inglis**
However, if you ever hurt Rani again...
**[07:21] Inglis**
You're a dead woman.
**[07:25] Inglis**
That's all.
**[07:26] Inglis**
Have a nice evening.
**[07:28] Sistia**
What's your name?
**[07:30] Inglis**
Inglis Eucus.
**[07:32] Inglis**
A pleasure to make your acquaintance.
**[07:34] Seilyn**
Sistia Rouge.
**[07:36] Seilyn**
Until we meet again...
**[07:41] Inglis**
Rani!
**[07:42] Inglis**
Are you okay?
**[07:46] Rani**
I'm okay.
**[07:48] Rani**
Sorry...
**[07:49] Rani**
I guess I interrupted you.
**[07:51] Inglis**
No, I was done.
**[07:54] Inglis**
So were you, right?
**[07:56] Rani**
Yes.
**[07:57] Rani**
Lady Seilyn's safe.
**[07:59] Rani**
Our mission's complete.
**[08:01] Inglis**
Yup.
**[08:04] Seilyn**
Thank you so much for your help yesterday.
**[08:08] Seilyn**
Thanks to you, none of my men were injured.
**[08:12] Rani**
I'm glad we could help.
**[08:14] Inglis**
Are the former knights we captured
going to be executed?
**[08:19] Seilyn**
No, they were once loyal
servants of this city.
**[08:24] Seilyn**
They simply got a little arrogant.
**[08:27] Seilyn**
I want them to change their ways and
use their strength not for themselves,
**[08:31] Seilyn**
but for the weak and powerless.
**[08:36] Seilyn**
I plan on taking my time
to persuade them of this.
**[08:40] Seilyn**
And if they're willing to change,
I'm going to hire them again.
**[08:45] Rani**
Wow! And to think they tried to kill you!
**[08:49] Inglis**
I think that's wonderful.
**[08:54] Seilyn**
Oh? This has an unusual taste.
**[08:57] Mimoza**
Yes. I thought you might be tired from
yesterday, so I've added some herbs to it.
**[09:02] Seilyn**
I see.
**[09:03] Seilyn**
I do feel relaxed,
like I could sleep very well.
**[09:08] Rani**
Yes, it's good.
**[09:10] Inglis**
It is.
**[09:16] Seilyn**
There's something I want
to talk to you about.
**[09:19] Seilyn**
Will you come with me?
**[09:21] Rani**
Y-Yes?
**[09:22] Rani**
I didn't realize there was a place
like this under the castle.
**[09:27] Seilyn**
Only a select few know of it.
**[09:31] Inglis**
That's...
**[09:38] Inglis**
This magic circle is draining away mana.
**[09:43] Rani**
Lady Seilyn... What is this?
**[09:47] Inglis**
The core of the Highland.
A Levitation Circle.
**[09:53] Inglis**
It absorbs mana from its surroundings,
and when it has enough,
**[09:57] Inglis**
it breaks the land away from the earth
around it and brings it to the sky.
**[10:01] Rani**
The sky?
**[10:02] Inglis**
Does that mean...?
**[10:05] Seilyn**
It will become a new Highland.
**[10:07] (Flashback) Sistia**
Her kind are trying
to steal away the surface.
**[10:11] Inglis**
* I thought she meant in the*
* political or psychological sense.*
**[10:15] Inglis**
* I didn't think she literally meant they*
* were stealing the surface itself...*
**[10:19] Rani**
If it flies up into the sky,
**[10:21] Rani**
what happens to the people who live here?
**[10:24] Seilyn**
The Highland is for Highlanders.
**[10:28] Seilyn**
They'll either have to leave or become
slaves of Highlanders themselves.
**[10:32] Seilyn**
I'm planning on asking the higher-ups
to let those who wish live here
**[10:36] Seilyn**
without becoming slaves, or even allow them
to become Highlanders themselves.
**[10:40] Rani**
Can you do that?
**[10:43] Seilyn**
I will. Even if I have to fight the Highland.
**[10:46] Rani**
Why are you telling us
something so important?
**[10:51] Seilyn**
Because I wanted somebody
to forgive me, I guess.
**[10:55] Seilyn**
My being here as this city's ruler
means it may someday be destroyed.
**[11:02] Seilyn**
But I'm hiding that from everyone...
and I don't know if that's okay.
**[11:08] Seilyn**
So I want to ask you...
**[11:11] Seilyn**
Is it okay for me to be here?
**[11:14] Seilyn**
If not, you may strike me down where I stand.
**[11:19] Rani**
C-Chris, what do we say?
**[11:23] Inglis**
She's asking you for your opinion.
**[11:27] Inglis**
You need to tell her what you think.
**[11:30] Rani**
What about you, Chris?
**[11:32] Inglis**
Me? I'll go with whatever you say.
**[11:36] Inglis**
I'm going to be your squire, after all.
**[11:38] Rani**
That's not fair!
**[11:40] Inglis**
That's what it means to be the boss!
**[11:43] Rani**
Okay...
**[11:45] Rani**
Lady Seilyn...
**[11:48] Rani**
I want to believe in you.
**[11:51] Rani**
Because I think you believe what you say.
**[11:56] Seilyn**
Rafinha...
**[11:58] Rani**
When this land takes flight, if you
need my power, I'll come to help you.
**[12:05] Rani**
I'm going to train at the knights' academy
in the capital and study hard!
**[12:10] Rani**
I'll be able to help you more then!
**[12:12] Rani**
So when that happens,
take me on as a knight here!
**[12:18] Seilyn**
Thank you, Rafinha...
**[12:23] Rani**
This is okay, right, Chris?
**[12:25] Rani**
It's what I've decided for myself.
**[12:28] Inglis**
It's fine.
**[12:30] Inglis**
If things go well, we might get
to fight a Highlander army!
**[12:33] Rani**
That's not going well at all!
**[12:57] Rani**
What was that? An earthquake?
**[13:00] Inglis**
I heard voices from this direction!
**[13:01] Inglis**
Be careful, Rani!
**[13:11] Inglis**
A magicite beast!
**[13:16] Inglis**
That's...
**[13:17] Rani**
No... Is that Lady Seilyn?
**[13:21] Rani**
Why? There hasn't been any Prism Flow!
**[13:24] Inglis**
Rani, remember what
happened three years ago.
**[13:28] Rani**
Three years ago?
**[13:34] Inglis**
Rahl was turned into a magicite beast
by the Bloodchain Brigade's Prism Powder.
**[13:39] Rani**
So this is the Bloodchain Brigade again?
**[13:43] Rani**
The question is... when?
**[13:49] Mimoza**
Pathetic!
**[13:51] Mimoza**
Now begone, Highlander!
**[13:54] Rani**
Mimoza?!
**[14:00] Inglis**
So *that's* where the Prism Powder was?
**[14:03] Mimoza**
My son was killed by a Highlander!
**[14:07] Mimoza**
Go to hell!
**[14:16] Knights**
Magicite beasts! Split up!
**[14:19] Inglis**
Wait!
**[14:21] Inglis**
You need to evacuate the people in the castle!
**[14:23] Knights**
But...
**[14:24] Inglis**
Leave this to us! Hurry!
**[14:27] Knights**
Understood.
**[14:28] Rani**
What do we do, Chris?
**[14:30] Inglis**
We have to stop her.
**[14:32] Inglis**
Rani, if she looks like she's going to fire
another one of those beams, block her!
**[14:35] Rani**
Got it!
**[14:42] Inglis**
Lady Seilyn, stop this, please!
**[14:48] Rani**
No, Lady Seilyn!
**[15:13] Inglis**
You're...
**[15:15] Sistia**
Die!
**[15:17] Inglis**
Stop it!
**[15:18] Sistia**
Don't interfere!
I didn't come here to fight you!
**[15:22] Inglis**
You're with the Bloodchain
Brigade, aren't you?
**[15:25] Sistia**
And what if I am?
**[15:28] Inglis**
If I'd defeated you then, Mimoza wouldn't
have gotten her hands on the Prism Powder.
**[15:34] MaskedMan**
No, that's not true.
**[15:37] MaskedMan**
My comrades all carry Prism Powder.
**[15:42] MaskedMan**
Comrade Mimoza already had it.
**[15:44] Inglis**
*When did he show up?*
**[15:47] MaskedMan**
The plan to use the banished knights
to attack the Highlander failed.
**[15:52] MaskedMan**
So Comrade Mimoza took action on her own.
**[15:55] Inglis**
And who might you be?
**[15:56] MaskedMan**
I am the leader of the Bloodchain Brigade.
**[15:59] MaskedMan**
I have no name. Call me what you like.
**[16:03] MaskedMan**
I've come to protect this land.
**[16:06] Inglis**
From the danger that you people created?
**[16:10] MaskedMan**
We will eliminate the Highlander,
but the people of this land are innocent.
**[16:15] Inglis**
I won't let you hurt either of them.
**[16:19] Rani**
Chris! We need to stop her!
**[16:23] Sistia**
Get out of here.
**[16:27] Inglis**
I won't let you!
**[16:41] Inglis**
* I didn't think anyone could take a clean hit*
* from my Aether-Shell-enhanced fist.*
**[16:47] Inglis**
* It seems I still have much*
* to see of the world!*
**[16:49] Inglis**
Step aside!
**[16:51] MaskedMan**
Sorry, but I can't.
**[16:56] Inglis**
*Amazing!*
**[16:57] Inglis**
* I'd love to have a nice, long fight*
* with him, but now's not the time!*
**[17:05] Sistia**
You're mine.
**[17:12] Rani**
Not on my watch!
**[17:13] Sistia**
Then I'll take you out first!
**[17:15] Kids**
Lady Seilyn!
**[17:17] Rino**
Lady Seilyn, are you okay?
**[17:21] Miyumi**
Are you hurt?
**[17:23] Chiko**
Are you in pain, Lady Seilyn?
**[17:27] MaskedMan**
No! Sistia!
**[17:28] Sistia**
Yes!
**[17:30] Kids**
Lady Seilyn!
**[17:31] Rani**
Run!
**[17:32] Kids**
What's wrong?
**[17:34] Kids**
Are you okay?
**[17:36] Kids**
Lady Seilyn?
**[17:39] Rani**
That's...
**[17:40] Kids**
Lady Seilyn!
**[17:42] Kids**
No!
**[17:49] Rani**
Lady Seilyn, no!
**[18:01] Rani**
Chris!
**[18:02] Sistia**
What are you doing?
You should've allowed her a clean death!
**[18:05] Inglis**
Lady Seilyn is still in there!
**[18:09] Inglis**
We can't let her die!
**[18:12] MaskedMan**
But nothing's changed.
**[18:15] Inglis**
There's something I want to try.
**[18:17] Inglis**
Distract her.
**[18:19] Inglis**
If I fail, I'll let you do as you like.
**[18:24] MaskedMan**
Very well. Let's make a deal.
**[18:27] MaskedMan**
Whether this works or not,
when it's over, you leave the city.
**[18:33] MaskedMan**
We're going to destroy
the Levitation Circle,
**[18:36] MaskedMan**
and I don't want you trying to interfere.
**[18:39] Inglis**
Very well.
**[18:40] Inglis**
I'm sorry I won't get a chance to fight you.
**[18:44] MaskedMan**
Now, if you'll excuse me.
**[18:46] MaskedMan**
We have a deal.
**[18:48] MaskedMan**
Sistia, distract her!
**[18:51] Sistia**
Understood!
**[18:52] Inglis**
You too, Rani!
**[18:54] Rani**
Got it.
**[18:55] Rani**
Chris, make sure you stop
Lady Seilyn, all right?
**[18:58] Inglis**
Yeah, I'll give it my best shot!
**[19:13] Inglis**
* Firstly, I convert all of*
* my aether into mana.*
**[19:23] Inglis**
* I control it and shift into*
* casting a spell...*
**[19:27] Inglis**
*I'm ready to cast!*
**[19:33] Inglis**
Freeze!
**[19:51] MaskedMan**
Oh?
**[19:55] Rani**
Chris, are you okay?
**[19:57] Inglis**
Yeah, I think it worked.
**[20:00] Rani**
Hey, Lady Seilyn's okay, right?
**[20:05] Inglis**
Yeah, magicite beasts are tough to kill.
**[20:08] Inglis**
I think she'll be able
to move when it melts.
**[20:11] Rani**
Good...
**[20:12] Inglis**
But we need to get her away from here.
**[20:15] MaskedMan**
I'll make her easier to move, then.
**[20:20] MaskedMan**
She's too big right now.
**[20:35] Rani**
She's getting smaller!
**[20:37] Inglis**
* This light... Aether?*
* So he's a Divine Knight too?*
**[20:43] Inglis**
* But the Goddess' blessing*
* is needed to create a Divine Knight.*
**[20:48] Inglis**
* I thought I couldn't sense her*
* in this world...*
**[20:52] Inglis**
*Is there a divine existence here after all?*
**[20:59] MaskedMan**
The aether in her body is gone,
**[21:02] MaskedMan**
so returning her to her original size
will be almost impossible.
**[21:06] MaskedMan**
But that also means that she can never again
grow large enough to be a threat to others.
**[21:12] Inglis**
I hate to say it, but I couldn't do
what you've done right now.
**[21:16] MaskedMan**
Keep your promise, then. Go.
**[21:20] Rani**
What about the people
in the castle and the town?
**[21:22] MaskedMan**
We won't hurt them.
**[21:24] MaskedMan**
Our only enemy are the Highlanders.
**[21:28] Inglis**
I believe you.
**[21:37] Rino**
Lady Seilyn!
**[21:39] Chiko**
Don't go!
**[21:40] Miyumi**
Lady Seilyn!
**[21:43] Inglis**
She'll come back someday.
**[21:47] Miyumi**
Really?
**[21:48] Rani**
Yup. So all of you,
stay friends with each other!
**[21:52] Rani**
So that when she comes back,
she'll be happy.
**[21:56] Kids**
Okay...
**[22:00] Kids**
Bye-bye, Lady Seilyn!
**[22:03] Kids**
Come back, okay?
**[22:04] Kids**
We'll be waiting!
**[22:12] Inglis**
Hey!
**[22:14] Inglis**
Lady Seilyn, stop moving
around like that! It tickles!
**[22:26] Rani**
She's so cute after the ice melted!
**[22:32] Inglis**
Rani, please...
**[22:34] Rani**
Well, mine are too small.
**[22:37] Rani**
She seems to like your breasts better.
**[22:41] Rani**
Right, Lyn?
**[22:44] Inglis**
Lyn?
**[22:46] Rani**
She's so small now! So I thought "Lyn"
fit better than calling her "Lady Seilyn."
**[22:51] Inglis**
Lyn, come on outside...
**[22:56] Inglis**
Stop moving around!
**[23:00] Inglis**
What's wrong, Rani?
**[23:02] Rani**
I still don't know who was right
and who was wrong this time.
**[23:09] Rani**
The Bloodchain Brigade said they
were trying to protect the town.
**[23:14] Inglis**
Yup.
**[23:17] Rani**
It just makes my head hurt!
**[23:19] Inglis**
That's just part of being young.
**[23:22] Rani**
No, I don't think so...
**[23:23] Rani**
It doesn't bother you, Chris?
**[23:26] Inglis**
Yup. 'Cause I don't think about it.
**[23:28] Inglis**
As long as you only think about
getting stronger, it won't bother you.
**[23:33] Inglis**
Want to try it, Rani?
**[23:35] Rani**
I'll pass.
**[23:37] Inglis**
Then think about it all you like.
**[23:39] Inglis**
I'm always on your side, okay?
**[23:41] Rani**
Yeah, thanks!

That Prismer looks really tough!
**[00:11] Rani**
They were able to defeat it,
but they couldn't move it,
**[00:15] Rani**
so they ended up building this
cathedral to keep watch over it.
**[00:19] Inglis**
You think if we melted the ice
like we did with Lyn, it'd start moving?
**[00:23] Rani**
Quiet, Chris!
**[00:25] Rani**
If you say weird stuff here,
they'll arrest you!
**[00:28] Inglis**
But... But...
**[00:29] Inglis**
It's frozen, but I can still feel some kind
of power pulsing within it!
**[00:35] Inglis**
It might not be dead!
**[00:37] Rani**
I just said...
**[00:39] Guard**
You there!
**[00:42] Rani**
It's nothing!
**[00:44] Rani**
She's just a little weird...
**[00:47] Guard**
They say magicite beasts
have appeared in town.
**[00:50] Guard**
It's dangerous, so stay here!
**[00:52] Inglis**
Magicite beasts?
**[00:53] Inglis**
I can't wait!
**[00:55] Inglis**
Rani, catch up when you can!
**[00:57] Rani**
Aww, Chris, c'mon!
**[01:00] Rani**
She's usually not this worked up...
**[01:04] Soldiers**
Hurry! Over here!
**[01:05] Soldiers**
This way!
**[01:06] Inglis**
* You can tell they built this town*
* to keep watch over the Prismer.*
**[01:09] Inglis**
*It certainly has no shortage of knights!*

Wow!

**[03:00] Leone**
You fool!
**[03:01] Leone**
It's suicide to try and fight a magicite
beast with no Rune or Artifact!
**[03:06] Inglis**
* I can tell from how she moves that she's*
* spent no small amount of time training.*
**[03:07] Leone**
Don't throw your life away!
**[03:09] Inglis**
*A Greater Rune?*
**[03:11] Inglis**
*The same as Rani?*
**[03:13] Inglis**
Th-Thanks! I'll be okay, though!
**[03:16] Leone**
They're coming!
**[03:17] Leone**
Fall back!
**[03:19] Leone**
I'll cut them all down at once!
**[03:22] Inglis**
*Oh? Very good!*
**[03:24] Leone**
Are you hurt? You need to find shelter!
**[03:29] Inglis**
Behind you!
**[03:31] Leone**
It's no good!
**[03:35] Leone**
Now, take this!
**[03:38] Leone**
Stupid little thing...
**[03:39] Inglis**
I'll help you!
**[03:42] Leone**
She's fast!
**[03:45] Inglis**
Now! Hit it!
**[03:47] Leone**
O-Okay!
**[03:51] Inglis**
I'll keep going!
**[04:01] Inglis**
Nice!
**[04:02] Leone**
You too...
**[04:03] Leone**
I guess you didn't need my help before.
**[04:06] Leone**
Sorry.
**[04:07] Leone**
What's your name?
**[04:09] Inglis**
Inglis Eucus.
**[04:12] Leone**
I'm Leone. Leone Olfa.
**[04:16] Inglis**
*Olfa? I've heard that name before...*
**[04:19] Leone**
Let's work together.
**[04:20] Inglis**
Right, Leone.
**[04:23] Leone**
Let's get to it!
**[04:25] Inglis**
One, two, three!
**[04:36] Rani**
Nice, a clean hit!
**[04:37] Inglis**
Rani!
**[04:38] Rani**
Chris! You ran off and left me!
**[04:45] Rani**
I guess that was the last of them.
**[04:47] Inglis**
This is Leone.
**[04:49] Inglis**
We ran into each other and teamed up.
**[04:51] Leone**
Thanks. You were a big help.
**[04:54] Rani**
Thank you! I'm Rafinha Bilford.
**[04:57] Rani**
Nice to meet you!
**[04:59] Leone**
"Bilford"?
**[05:00] Leone**
Then, you're Master Rafael's younger sister?
**[05:05] Rani**
You know Brother Raf?
**[05:08] Leone**
Y-Yes.
**[05:10] Leone**
He's been very good to me.
**[05:14] Guard**
You three.
**[05:17] Guard**
Thanks for helping protect the town.
**[05:20] Guard**
We'd like to offer you a small reward...
**[05:24] Rani**
Isn't that great, Chris and Leone?
**[05:26] Guard**
Just you two.
**[05:30] Guard**
We've got nothing to give a clan of traitors.
**[05:33] Inglis**
Traitors?
**[05:35] Rani**
Wait! Leone helped too!
**[05:39] Leone**
It's okay, Rafinha.
**[05:40] Leone**
Go without me.
**[05:42] Rani**
No! It doesn't make sense!
**[05:44] Guard**
You don't seem to know, so I'll fill you in.
**[05:47] Guard**
That woman is the sister of Leon Olfa,
**[05:50] Guard**
a former holy knight who
betrayed this country and fled.
**[05:57] Rani**
Leon Olfa...?
**[06:03] Inglis**
That explains where
I'd heard the name before.
**[06:06] Guard**
If you're seen together,
people will start to talk.
**[06:10] Guard**
Now, we can give you that
reward over there...
**[06:12] Rani**
No, thank you!
**[06:14] Rani**
I don't need any reward
from the likes of you!
**[06:32] Rafael**
What's going on here?
**[06:34] Guard**
Master Rafael!
**[06:36] Guard**
It's just the traitorous knight's sister.
**[06:39] Guard**
You don't need to worry about her...
***SIGN*** Rafael Age 23
**[06:42] Rafael**
Please don't talk about Leone like that.
**[06:46] Rafael**
She helped with the magicite
beasts again, didn't she?
**[06:50] Rafael**
You could give her a little cred—
**[06:52] Rani**
Brother Raf!
**[06:53] Rafael**
Rani?
**[06:54] Rafael**
Is that you, Rani?
**[06:56] Rafael**
I never thought I'd see you here.
**[06:58] Inglis**
It's been a long time, cousin.
**[07:05] Inglis**
*He's grown into a fine young man.*
**[07:08] Rafael**
Y-You've become such a pretty lady.
**[07:10] Rafael**
I didn't recognize you.
**[07:12] Ripple**
Oh, Rafael almost never has
anything nice to say about girls.
**[07:18] Ripple**
Girls love him, but he's incredibly dense.
**[07:20] Rafael**
S-Stop it, Ripple...
**[07:26] Rafael**
This is Ripple.
**[07:28] Rafael**
One of our nation's Hyral Menases,
alongside Eris.
**[07:32] Ripple**
Nice to meet you!
**[07:34] Inglis**
*A Hyral Menas?*
**[07:36] Inglis**
*I bet she's strong!*
**[07:38] Rani**
What are you two doing here?
**[07:42] Rani**
Also, you know Leone?
**[07:45] Rafael**
Well...
**[07:46] Rafael**
Are you hungry?
**[07:48] Rafael**
We can talk about it over a meal!
**[07:50] Inglis**
I'm always up for food!
**[07:53] Rafael**
Come with us too, Leone.
**[07:55] Rafael**
I need to thank you for helping the girls.
**[07:59] Rafael**
So all that happened in Nova?
**[08:02] Rafael**
I'd heard their magistrate went missing.
**[08:06] Rafael**
But I can't believe you two survived a
meeting with the Bloodchain Brigade's leader.
**[08:10] Inglis**
What I'm most curious about
is the Levitation Circle.
**[08:14] Inglis**
You knew about it, and you still handed
the city over to the Highland?
**[08:18] Rani**
If you did, I think that's
a problem, Brother.
**[08:23] Rafael**
Yeah, you're right.
**[08:27] Ripple**
So it's not just Rafael. You two agree, huh?
**[08:32] Rafael**
And that's the magistrate,
who's now a magicite beast?
**[08:36] Ripple**
She's cute.
**[08:38] Ripple**
It's hard to believe she's a magicite beast!
**[08:41] Ripple**
She shouldn't be in there!
**[08:44] Ripple**
Please, do something!
**[08:46] Rani**
S-Sorry.
**[08:48] Rani**
She likes girls with big breasts.
**[08:51] Inglis**
Hooray! It's not just me anymore!
**[08:58] Rani**
What was with that knight, though?
**[09:01] Rani**
He didn't need to be such a jerk.
**[09:03] Leone**
It happens all the time.
**[09:05] Rani**
But you still fight to
protect the townspeople?
**[09:09] Leone**
You can't worry about that stuff
when the magicite beasts are attacking.
**[09:13] Rani**
Yeah, you're right!
**[09:15] Rani**
I respect that!
**[09:17] Leone**
Thank you.
**[09:18] Leone**
But don't be too hard on the townspeople.
**[09:22] Leone**
They just expect a lot out
of holy knights, that's all.
**[09:26] Leone**
Everyone was so proud of my brother because
he was the first holy knight from our town.
**[09:32] Leone**
And then he killed not only
a Highlander emissary,
**[09:35] Leone**
but even the inspector from the capital.
**[09:39] Rani**
Wait. Lord Shiony, the inspector, was...
**[09:43] Inglis**
So they told the public
that it was all Leon's doing.
**[09:47] Rani**
But doesn't that make him out
to be a really bad guy?
**[09:51] Rani**
He was only mad because of what Rahl did!
**[09:55] Leone**
You met my brother?
**[09:58] Rani**
Y-Yeah.
**[10:00] Rani**
He was easy to talk to and a lot of fun.
**[10:02] Rani**
He wasn't a bad person.
**[10:04] Inglis**
Yeah, I agree completely.
**[10:07] Leone**
Thank you for saying that.
**[10:10] Leone**
But it's okay...
**[10:13] Leone**
Prince Wein and Rafael explained everything,
and they even apologized.
**[10:21] Rafael**
I know an apology doesn't come
close to making things right...
**[10:25] Leone**
No matter how it happened,
**[10:27] Leone**
it's still true that my brother cast aside
the title of holy knight and this nation.
**[10:32] Rani**
Leone...
**[10:34] Leone**
So I'm going to become a full-fledged knight
and capture him.
**[10:41] Inglis**
If you need to become a full-fledged knight,
does that mean...
**[10:45] Rafael**
She's going to the knights' academy
in the capital city.
**[10:48] Rani**
Really?
**[10:50] Rani**
So are we!
**[10:52] Leone**
You are?
**[10:54] Leone**
That's great.
**[10:56] Leone**
If I'm with you...
**[10:58] Inglis**
What a coincidence!
**[11:00] Inglis**
This'll be the start of a long friendship!
**[11:01] Rani**
It sure will!
**[11:03] Leone**
Yeah!
**[11:05] Leone**
I'm hoping they can solve the problem
of the magicite beasts appearing in town.
**[11:11] Inglis**
They just appear all of a sudden in town?
**[11:13] Inglis**
That's strange.
**[11:15] Inglis**
The place is well-guarded.
**[11:17] Leone**
It's been happening a lot lately.
**[11:19] Leone**
They just show up in the middle of
the city without any Prism Flow...
**[11:22] Rafael**
You don't need to worry about that, Leone.
**[11:45] Rafael**
We think the frozen Prismer is what's
been drawing the magicite beasts.
**[11:51] Rafael**
So...
**[11:52] Leone**
So if you carry it somewhere else,
they'll stop appearing in town.
**[11:58] Rani**
What a sight, huh?
**[12:00] Rani**
I didn't know Flying Gears could do that!
**[12:04] Inglis**
What did you want to talk about?
**[12:06] Ripple**
You're the crazy-powerful girl
Eris told me about, right?
**[12:10] Inglis**
Eris told you about me?
**[12:13] Ripple**
We're keeping it a secret between us
Hyral Menases for now, though.
**[12:17] Inglis**
Thank you very much.
**[12:19] Ripple**
So, whaddya think? Can you beat it?
**[12:23] Inglis**
Nobody fights to lose.
**[12:25] Ripple**
The truth is, it was the one who
locked itself inside that ice.
**[12:30] Ripple**
This was decades ago.
**[12:34] Ripple**
I saw it with my own eyes.
**[12:36] Inglis**
I heard once that Hyral Menases
have long lifespans, but...
**[12:40] Ripple**
I'm actually quite the old lady.
**[12:43] Ripple**
So's Eris.
**[12:45] Inglis**
*Actually, though, I'm an old man...*
**[12:48] Ripple**
We tell everyone it's a corpse
so they don't get scared.
**[12:52] Ripple**
What's happened lately is a sign
that it'll soon revive.
**[12:57] Inglis**
So you're carrying it near the border,
**[13:00] Inglis**
and away from any cities, in case it does?
**[13:04] Inglis**
And not only that, you're using
the magicite beasts it creates
**[13:07] Inglis**
as a defense against invasion
by enemy countries...
**[13:10] Ripple**
You look upset.
**[13:11] Inglis**
It's a waste!
**[13:13] Inglis**
The magicite beasts and invading armies
will destroy each other!
**[13:18] Inglis**
But this is a great spot to fight a Prismer
without worrying about the surroundings.
**[13:22] Ripple**
Yup! It's nice to see you're
looking at this optimistically.
**[13:26] Inglis**
Of course!
**[13:27] Inglis**
Make sure you call me when it happens!
**[13:29] Ripple**
Let's make a pinky promise, then.
**[13:41] Rafael**
Ripple and I will stay here to supervise
the transport, so this is goodbye.
**[13:45] Rafael**
We're sending this Flying Gear Port
back to the capital. You can ride it there.
**[13:59] Inglis**
* Please revive soon, so we can*
* fight to our hearts' content!*
***SIGN*** Capital City Kyral
**[14:11] Inglis**
*And on the day we started at the school...*
**[14:24] Wein**
We welcome you to the
Royal Knights' Academy.
***SIGN*** Prince Wein
**[14:30] Wein**
Everyone here has been chosen
to become a knight
***SIGN*** Principal Miliera
**[14:34] Wein**
in order to protect our nation
of Caralia and its citizens.
**[14:39] Wein**
Study hard, and keep
your honor and the weight
**[14:42] Wein**
of the responsibility you bear
in your hearts at all times.
**[14:48] Miliera**
Hello, everyone!
I'm Miliera, your principal!
**[14:53] Miliera**
Nice to meet you all!
**[14:55] Rani**
That's the principal?
**[14:58] Inglis**
Look carefully.
**[15:01] Rani**
A Special-class Rune!
**[15:03] Rani**
Just like Brother Raf. Which means...
**[15:06] Inglis**
She's strong enough to be a holy knight.
**[15:08] Students**
Did you hear the rumor about
one of the new students?
**[15:13] Students**
The little sister of a Highlander-killer?
**[15:15] Students**
Is that true?
**[15:18] Inglis**
The principal's talking, okay?
**[15:21] Miliera**
But nobody's got time for long speeches,
so let's begin the orientation!
**[15:26] Miliera**
Let's start with warm-ups!
**[15:31] Students**
What?
**[15:32] Students**
An earthquake?!
**[15:37] Miliera**
Everyone in the knights' class,
I trust you've left your Artifacts behind?
**[15:41] Students**
Yes!
**[15:41] Students**
I have!
**[15:43] Miliera**
Then...
**[15:55] Rani**
What is this?
**[15:58] Leone**
My body's so heavy...
**[16:00] Miliera**
This is a powerful gravity field
generated by my Artifact.
**[16:04] Miliera**
You'll do your combat training inside it!
**[16:08] Miliera**
It makes me sad when my students
die on the battlefield,
**[16:12] Miliera**
so I'm going to train you as
hard as I possibly can, okay?
**[16:18] Inglis**
This is great! I love this school!
**[16:20] Leone**
This is rough without an Artifact.
**[16:24] Leone**
It's good training, though!
**[16:27] Miliera**
Okay, here we go!
**[16:33] Miliera**
Time to play a game of tag! They're "it"!
**[16:36] Miliera**
If you can avoid being
tagged for ten minutes,
**[16:40] Miliera**
you get a whole month's
free food at the cafeteria!
**[16:44] Inglis**
That'd be a lifesaver!
**[16:45] Rani**
We have to win, then!
**[16:47] Rani**
But I feel so heavy!
**[16:50] Inglis**
Don't worry, Rani.
**[16:52] Miliera**
Then without further ado...
**[16:54] Miliera**
Ready... and go!
**[16:57] Inglis**
Haah!
**[17:01] Inglis**
Take that!
**[17:02] Inglis**
And that!
**[17:05] Inglis**
Phew... There we go!
**[17:07] Rani**
Hooray!
**[17:08] Rani**
A month of all the free food we can eat!
**[17:10] Leone**
You're amazing, Inglis!
**[17:13] Students**
Does that mean...
**[17:15] Students**
Nobody got tagged, so...
**[17:17] Students**
We all get free food for a month?
**[17:21] Miliera**
What you just saw was a demonstration
that knocking them...
**[17:26] Miliera**
out of the ring doesn't count!
**[17:28] Inglis**
Ma'am, I don't think that's fair.
**[17:32] Miliera**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[17:35] Miliera**
I messed up.
**[17:36] Miliera**
One more time, please!
**[17:42] Miliera**
That was also a demonstration, okay?
**[17:46] Miliera**
You know, it's so important
I had to show you twice!
**[17:53] Miliera**
Listen. I'll give you three free months if
you stop throwing my golems outside the ring!
**[17:58] Inglis**
Give it to the three of us, and it's a deal.
**[18:01] Miliera**
Very well. A bargain has been struck!
**[18:06] Miliera**
Now, let's try this again.
**[18:08] Miliera**
Ready, go!
**[18:14] Miliera**
Ninety seconds left.
**[18:19] Inglis**
*Four knights and one squire remain.*
**[18:27] Pram**
I-It's coming!
**[18:29] Pram**
Get away!
**[18:32] Rati**
Don't push me, Pram!
**[18:34] Pram**
I'm sorry, Rati!
**[18:38] Liselotte**
It won't be that easy to
defeat Liselotte Arcia!
**[18:45] Miliera**
Sixty seconds left!
**[18:47] Miliera**
You're almost there!
**[18:49] Miliera**
I'm increasing the gravitational pull!
**[18:54] Students**
Wow!
**[18:56] Inglis**
This is great!
**[18:58] Rani**
I can't take it anymore...
**[19:00] Leone**
I c-can't move!
**[19:04] Rati**
You're so heavy! I'm going to die!
**[19:09] Liselotte**
Don't you dare touch me!
**[19:15] Miliera**
Last one standing!
**[19:21] Inglis**
It's over!
**[19:25] Students**
She's so strong!
**[19:26] Students**
Is she a squire?
**[19:27] Students**
She was so amazing back there!
**[19:29] Students**
She's pretty, too.
**[19:32] Miliera**
All done!
**[19:34] Miliera**
Inglis gets the free meal tickets, then!
**[19:39] Miliera**
How fascinating!
**[19:41] Miliera**
I'd love to ask you all kinds of questions.
**[19:46] Inglis**
S-Sure, as long as you keep your promise.
**[19:54] Inglis**
The food in the cafeteria was so good!
**[19:57] Rani**
And we get to eat as much as we want! Wow!
**[20:00] Inglis**
The desserts were great, too!
**[20:03] Rani**
Leone should've stayed for dessert
instead of heading back alone.
**[20:08] Liselotte**
I told you, I can't stay in a room like this.
**[20:12] Liselotte**
I'm supposed to trust the sister of a
holy knight who betrayed his country?
**[20:16] Liselotte**
Why was she even allowed to enroll?
**[20:20] Miliera**
Well, the academy decided there
was nothing wrong with her...
**[20:26] Liselotte**
And I'm saying that decision was wrong!
**[20:28] Liselotte**
The least you can do is reassign her
to a different room!
**[20:34] Miliera**
Very well.
**[20:37] Miliera**
Would anyone like to switch rooms?
**[20:40] Rani**
Okay! Come to our room, then!
**[20:44] Rani**
You're all so mean!
**[20:45] Rani**
She fought the magicite beasts
to protect the people of Almen!
**[20:50] Rani**
Even when they said awful things
about her, she never complained!
**[20:53] Rani**
A girl like that can't be a bad person!
**[20:55] Inglis**
Rani, calm down.
**[20:58] Rani**
We'll have three people in our room.
**[21:01] Rani**
Let's go, Leone.
**[21:07] Leone**
I'm sorry this keeps happening.
**[21:17] Leone**
I still think I should sleep on the floor.
**[21:20] Inglis**
It's fine. We can sleep in the same bed.
**[21:23] Rani**
Me too, then!
**[21:27] Rani**
We can all sleep in the same bed!
**[21:29] Leone**
Thank you both!
**[21:38] Leone**
She sure fell asleep fast.
**[21:40] Inglis**
It's her first day at school.
**[21:42] Inglis**
She's tired.
**[21:43] Leone**
It's been so long since I slept in
the same bed as someone else.
**[21:48] Inglis**
You're not alone.
**[21:50] Inglis**
We're with you.
**[21:52] Inglis**
Don't worry.
**[21:58] Leone**
Thank you, Inglis...

**[00:02] Rani**
This meat's so good!
**[00:05] Inglis**
It's so tender!
**[00:06] Rani**
Is the one you've got there Breakfast Set B?
**[00:09] Inglis**
Nope, Set C.
**[00:12] Rani**
That one was good, too...
**[00:15] Rani**
A through E were all delicious!
**[00:19] Rani**
What do you think, Chris?
I'm going to start over with A again.
**[00:23] Inglis**
Of course, so will I.
**[00:27] Rati**
Crap! Crap! I overslept!
**[00:30] Pram**
You were supposed to wake me up, Rati!
**[00:34] Pram**
Why did you oversleep?
**[00:36] Pram**
Thanks to you, I overslept too!
**[00:38] Rati**
Have your roommate wake you up!
**[00:41] Pram**
I told them they didn't have to,
because you were going to do it!
**[00:45] Rati**
Well, that's your problem.
**[00:50] Rati**
How much are you lot eating for breakfast?!
**[00:54] Rati**
The three of you ate all this?
**[00:57] Leone**
No, I just had this one plate.
**[01:00] Rati**
So the *two* of you ate all this?
**[01:02] Rati**
Isn't that too much food for breakfast?
**[01:04] Rani**
It's normal, isn't it, Chris?
**[01:06] Inglis**
Breakfast is the most
important meal of the day.
**[01:11] Inglis**
We need the energy to get us
through the day ahead!
**[01:15] Rati**
No, you've already eaten
enough for three days.
**[01:20] Rati**
You were amazing yesterday!
**[01:23] Rati**
You beat those three golems by yourself!
**[01:26] Inglis**
Thanks.
**[01:28] Rati**
Hey, don't push me!
**[01:30] Pram**
I'm not pushing you.
**[01:33] Inglis**
I'm Rati, from the squire program.
**[01:35] Inglis**
This is Pram, from the knights.
**[01:37] Pram**
Hi, I'm Pram.
**[01:38] Rati**
Nice to meet you.
**[01:41] Rani**
I'm Rafinha, from the knights.
**[01:43] Inglis**
I'm Inglis, from the squires.
**[01:45] Inglis**
Nice to meet you!
**[01:46] Leone**
Leone, from the knights. Hi.
**[01:48] Crowd**
Whisper, whisper, whisper, whisper.
**[01:51] Rati**
I think people are staring.
**[01:53] Leone**
Oh, that's because of me...
**[01:56] Rati**
A-Ah. Well, I'm not from this country,
so that stuff doesn't mean much to me.
**[02:03] Rani**
Where are you from?
**[02:05] Rati**
Alucard. Same as Pram.
**[02:07] Inglis**
So you're exchange students.
**[02:10] Rati**
Yeah. This place is nice and warm...
**[02:13] Pram**
Rati, we have to finish eating!
Class is gonna start!
**[02:16] Rati**
Oops, sorry!
**[02:18] Rati**
Pram, let's hurry up and order!
**[02:20] Rani**
We'll go with you.
**[02:22] Inglis**
Let's get extra-large portions!
**[02:23] Rati**
You're still eating?!

**[03:56] Margoose**
I'm Margoose, the practical
instructor for you freshmen!
**[04:01] Margoose**
Today we'll be doing a Flying Gear
exercise with both the knights and squires.
**[04:06] Margoose**
I want to start by making one thing clear:
**[04:07] Margoose**
Our war isn't just against
the magicite beasts!
**[04:12] Margoose**
We war against ourselves,
**[04:13] Margoose**
pushing ourselves to the limit
to bring peace and safety to the people!
**[04:17] Margoose**
And that starts with training our bodies!
**[04:21] Margoose**
So we're all going to run
to the Flying Gear dock!
**[04:25] Rati**
And the Flying Gears are already
out of the equation.
**[04:29] Margoose**
Get moving! Double time!
**[04:32] Rati**
He's fast! I'm already losing sight of him!
**[04:35] Rani**
Where's the Flying Gear dock?
**[04:37] Leone**
I saw it yesterday. It's pretty far.
**[04:41] Rani**
We need to keep up with him!
**[04:43] Inglis**
This is a nice change of pace.
**[04:45] Inglis**
But just running there normally
wouldn't be any fun at all.
**[04:48] Inglis**
* I'll try that gravity effect that*
* Principal Miliera used yesterday.*
**[04:53] Inglis**
*First, I convert my aether to mana...*
**[04:55] Inglis**
*And then, the way she set up her mana was...*
**[05:00] Inglis**
*Okay, that'll do for now.*
**[05:04] Inglis**
* If I get better,*
* I bet I can make it heavier!*
**[05:08] Rati**
Seriously? How is she so fast?
**[05:10] Leone**
Inglis was still standing there
when we left...
**[05:14] Rani**
Don't worry. Chris is...
**[05:18] Rani**
See?
**[05:21] Rani**
Leone, lets pick up the pace.
**[05:23] Leone**
Huh? Okay!
**[05:30] Pram**
Rati, wait! Jeez!
**[05:36] Margoose**
Don't hurt yourselves trying to keep up!
**[05:38] Margoose**
You're not expected to match
my speed from the start...
**[05:44] Inglis**
Can I go on ahead?
**[05:46] Margoose**
S-Sure.
**[05:48] Margoose**
What's your name?
**[05:49] Inglis**
Inglis Eucus.
**[05:51] Margoose**
You've got potential!
**[05:53] Margoose**
Very good!
**[05:54] Rati**
Wait up!
**[05:57] Inglis**
Wow! Not bad!
**[05:59] Rati**
Damn it! You're not even breaking
a sweat, and I'm dying here!
**[06:06] Margoose**
Looks like this year's
freshmen have potential!
**[06:09] Margoose**
Good, good.
**[06:10] Liselotte**
Don't forget me.
**[06:15] Leone**
W-We managed to catch up...
**[06:17] Rani**
I don't think Chris is using
her full strength yet.
**[06:23] Rati**
I'm not gonna lose, even if it kills me!
**[06:28] Inglis**
*That's the spirit!*
**[06:30] Inglis**
I'll be going on ahead!
**[06:32] Leone**
How is she doing that?
**[06:34] Rani**
I told you. She wasn't
using her full strength.
**[06:38] Rati**
If I tried to catch up to her,
I might actually die.
**[06:49] Rati**
Wow!
**[06:50] Rani**
It's kind of exciting to look at,
isn't it, Chris?
**[06:54] Inglis**
It sure is, Rani.
**[06:56] Liselotte**
This is the Royal Academy.
It's got the latest technology.
**[07:02] Margoose**
Now, form up into groups.
Two or three to a Flying Gear.
**[07:07] Margoose**
Once it's outside, get on board!
**[07:09] Margoose**
One of you takes the controls.
**[07:11] Margoose**
The others, hang on tight
and make sure you don't fall off!
**[07:14] Inglis**
Can I go first?
**[07:16] Rani**
Sure!
**[07:18] Rani**
Squires spend a lot of time
piloting Flying Gears, after all.
**[07:22] Leone**
Good luck, Inglis!
**[07:30] Margoose**
The instructions for flying it
are on the panel in front of you.
**[07:33] Margoose**
After you activate the engine,
switch it to flight mode.
**[07:38] Margoose**
When the wings on both sides deploy,
slowly bring up the accelerator.
**[07:48] Leone**
Wow, we're flying!
**[07:51] Rani**
Keep it up, Chris!
**[07:54] Inglis**
Yeah...
**[07:55] Inglis**
This is gonna work!
**[07:59] Rani**
This feels so good!
**[08:00] Inglis**
And the scenery's beautiful!
**[08:04] Leone**
Aren't we going a little too fast?
**[08:06] Leone**
I'm kind of scared...
**[08:08] Inglis**
But we're going to use these
to fight the magicite beasts, right?
**[08:11] Inglis**
Better get used to it.
**[08:12] Rani**
That's right!
**[08:14] Rani**
And this is the best way!
**[08:18] Pram**
Wow, Rati!
**[08:20] Pram**
You're really good at this!
**[08:24] Rati**
Looks like when it comes
to Flying Gears, I win!
**[08:28] Inglis**
I'll catch up to him.
**[08:34] Rati**
What are you doing?
**[08:36] Inglis**
I hate to lose.
**[08:39] Margoose**
L-Looks like... freshmen... potential!
**[08:42] Margoose**
Good...
**[08:45] Rati**
Wow, she's amazing.
**[08:49] Rati**
Not only is she pretty,
the things she does are incredible.
**[08:52] Pram**
Why are you talking like that
when you've already got me, Rati?
**[08:56] Rati**
Like what?
**[08:57] Pram**
You never call me pretty! It's not fair!
**[09:00] Rati**
Stop it! That's dangerous!
**[09:23] Miliera**
I'm sure you're tired after your classes,
**[09:27] Miliera**
but we've got a special test for you today.
**[09:31] Miliera**
If I call your name, step forward.
**[09:32] Liselotte**
A special test....
**[09:35] Miliera**
Rafinha. Liselotte. Leone. Pram.
**[09:40] All**
Yes, ma'am!
**[09:44] Pram**
Y-Yes, ma'am!
**[09:45] Miliera**
You four are the students that have been
recommended from the knight program.
**[09:49] Miliera**
And also Inglis...
**[09:51] Inglis**
Yes, ma'am.
**[09:54] Miliera**
You've been recommended
from the squire program.
**[09:57] Students**
Hey, is that the test that
everyone was talking about?
**[10:01] Students**
Yes! It's a huge honor just
to be recommended for it,
**[10:04] Students**
since it means the academy
thinks you've got potential!
**[10:09] Miliera**
The test is simple.
**[10:12] Miliera**
I'm going to send you somewhere.
**[10:16] Miliera**
Come back here before the time limit is up.
**[10:20] Miliera**
If you can do that, you pass!
**[10:23] Inglis**
Where is "somewhere"?
**[10:25] Miliera**
A special space created by an Artifact!
**[10:28] Miliera**
We call it the Labyrinth of Trials.
**[10:33] Miliera**
It will test not only your strength,
but your mental fortitude as well.
**[10:38] Leone**
Mental fortitude...
**[10:40] Miliera**
You might find yourself suffering...
**[10:44] Miliera**
But the goal is to enhance
your mental strength as knights.
**[10:49] Miliera**
Understood?
**[10:50] All**
Yes, ma'am!
**[10:52] Inglis**
You okay?
**[10:54] Pram**
I won't let you beat me!
**[10:59] Inglis**
* She appears to view me as a rival*
* for some reason, but...*
**[11:05] Inglis**
*No matter.*
**[11:11] Miliera**
Pick a door.
**[11:13] Miliera**
Each of you will find an
appropriate trial beyond it.
**[11:19] Miliera**
Now, let the test begin!
**[11:22] Inglis**
Rani, Leone, be careful!
**[11:24] Rani**
You too, Chris!
**[11:26] Rani**
Let's do our best!
**[11:27] Leone**
I know I can do this!
**[12:07] Inglis**
*This is... every foe I've ever fought!*
**[12:11] Inglis**
*The perfect test!*
**[12:13] Inglis**
Here I go!
**[12:15] Inglis**
What?
**[12:20] Inglis**
This isn't a test...
**[12:24] Rani**
Chris...
**[12:25] Inglis**
Rani?
**[12:36] Inglis**
Memories from my youth?
**[12:41] Inglis**
* I just keep going back*
* through my memories...*
**[12:43] Inglis**
*No enemies to be seen.*
**[12:58] Inglis**
*I've returned to when I was newly born.*
**[13:01] Inglis**
*Is this the end? No...*
**[13:06] Inglis**
These are...
**[13:11] Inglis**
memories of my last life?
**[13:19] Randall**
Your Highness...
**[13:21] Inglis**
*That voice...*
**[13:27] Randall**
It's been many years, Your Highness.
**[13:31] Inglis**
Randall...
**[13:33] Inglis**
* My heir, and the man who was set*
* to inherit the kingdom after my death.*
**[13:36] Inglis**
If you're really Randall,
I'd like to know why, after I died,
**[13:41] Inglis**
some people in this world started thinking
of themselves as better than others.
**[13:46] Inglis**
But you won't have an answer
for me, will you?
**[13:50] Randall**
That is correct, Your Majesty!
**[13:56] Inglis**
*This isn't good.*
**[14:01] Inglis**
* If I keep going, I might end up*
* running into the Goddess Alistia.*
**[14:06] Inglis**
This was supposed to be a test of
mental strength? I don't like it.
**[14:15] Inglis**
I've got better things to do
than waste my time here.
**[14:28] Inglis**
There's more up there?
**[14:30] Liselotte**
Wh-What was that?
**[14:33] Inglis**
I see!
**[14:35] Inglis**
So it's connected to the spaces
where the others are?
**[14:38] Liselotte**
Did you do this?
**[14:40] Inglis**
Yeah. I didn't feel like
continuing straight ahead.
**[14:44] Liselotte**
How could she destroy such a strange space?
**[14:49] Liselotte**
Just who are you?
**[14:56] Inglis**
Just a simple squire,
**[14:59] Inglis**
in Rafinha Bilford's service.
**[15:02] Liselotte**
If you're her squire, tell her not
to hate her classmate so much.
**[15:09] Liselotte**
I'm not here to be her enemy.
**[15:13] Inglis**
I don't think she hates you.
**[15:16] Liselotte**
She does!
**[15:17] Liselotte**
She tries to stay away from me as best
she can and won't look me in the eye!
**[15:23] Inglis**
Then maybe she's upset
with the way you treat Leone.
**[15:28] Liselotte**
I'm the daughter of this
kingdom's chancellor.
**[15:32] Liselotte**
I need to be careful.
**[15:36] Liselotte**
Though, to be honest...
**[15:38] Inglis**
Oh?
**[15:41] Liselotte**
I do feel I went a little too far.
**[15:45] Inglis**
Okay. I'll tell her for you.
**[15:49] Inglis**
So, you think we can get out of here?
**[15:52] Liselotte**
I'm sick of this place. It just
brings back all my bad memories.
**[15:55] Inglis**
Me too.
**[15:57] Inglis**
So I figured I'd bust my way out.
**[16:00] Inglis**
Want to join me?
**[16:02] Liselotte**
That sounds fun.
**[16:04] Liselotte**
Let's go together.
**[16:05] Inglis**
Okay, let's go.
**[16:07] Liselotte**
Wait.
**[16:17] Inglis**
Is that your Gift?
**[16:20] Liselotte**
Yes. I'll take you to the top.
**[16:25] Inglis**
Wow!
**[16:27] Inglis**
You don't even need a Flying Gear!
**[16:28] Young Leone**
Stop! What are you doing to my brother?
**[16:31] Leone**
Move! You're wrong about this!
**[16:36] Inglis**
That's... Leon?
**[16:39] Young Leone**
My brother's a holy knight now!
**[16:42] Young Leone**
He's an inspiration to everyone!
**[16:44] Young Leone**
Why are you being so mean?
**[16:47] Leone**
It's all a lie!
**[16:48] Leone**
You'll understand some day!
**[16:51] Leone's Father**
Curse you! And on the very day
my son became a holy knight!
**[16:55] Leone's Mother**
What are you going to do to Leon?
**[16:57] Leone**
Mother... Father...
**[17:00] Inglis**
* Those wounds... She's already*
* expended a great deal of her mana.*
**[17:05] Inglis**
* She must have overcome many*
* fierce battles to reach this point.*
**[17:10] Leone**
I'll... I'll defeat you
and keep going forward!
**[17:14] Leone**
I'll defeat my brother Leon!
**[17:18] Inglis**
Go on ahead. I'll help her.
**[17:23] Leone's Father**
I won't let you take another step forward,
if you're going to hurt my child!
**[17:27] Leone's Mother**
Begone! Go!
**[17:29] Leone's Father**
I'll protect Leon,
even at the cost of my life!
**[17:37] Leone's Father**
Begone, traitor!
**[17:40] Inglis**
Sorry to interrupt!
**[17:45] Leone**
I-Inglis?
**[17:47] Inglis**
I'm glad I made it.
**[17:50] Leone**
How did you get here?
**[17:53] Inglis**
I broke through the walls.
**[17:55] Leone**
That's crazy...
**[17:57] Leone**
That's not how the test is supposed to work.
**[17:59] Inglis**
Nobody said I couldn't!
**[18:02] Young Leone**
I won't let you hurt my brother!
**[18:04] Leone's Mother**
I'll protect Leon, no matter what!
**[18:08] Leone**
Inglis?
**[18:10] Inglis**
I'll handle them.
**[18:17] Leone**
Y-You're...
**[18:20] Liselotte**
It's hard for you or your friends
to fight them, right?
**[18:23] Liselotte**
It's easier for me.
**[18:25] Inglis**
Yeah, thanks.
**[18:29] Leone**
Th-Thank you.
**[18:31] Liselotte**
I'd like to apologize for
hurting you the other day.
**[18:36] Liselotte**
I'm sorry.
**[18:38] Leone**
No, it's not...
**[18:40] Inglis**
Liselotte's actually a nice girl, huh?
**[18:43] Liselotte**
That "actually" was unnecessary!
**[18:49] Liselotte**
Now, let's head for the top floor.
**[18:54] Liselotte**
Hurry up!
**[19:01] Leone**
Wow!
**[19:04] Inglis**
She doesn't even need a Flying Gear, right?
**[19:06] Liselotte**
You just said that!
**[19:10] Miliera**
Welcome back.
**[19:12] Inglis**
I guess we made it out.
**[19:14] Leone**
Yeah.
**[19:16] Miliera**
Huh?
**[19:17] Miliera**
You came out of a different door
than the one you went in!
**[19:21] Miliera**
And the three of you all
came out of the same door?
**[19:24] Inglis**
Nothing really unusual happened.
**[19:27] Miliera**
Really?
**[19:30] Liselotte**
That's a huge lie.
**[19:32] Miliera**
Maybe it's broken...
**[19:32] Leone**
You two helped me on the way, too...
**[19:35] Inglis**
You don't want to do it
all over again, right?
**[19:39] Inglis**
Principal Miliera,
this means we passed, right?
**[19:44] Miliera**
Well, you did come out of the door.
**[19:47] Miliera**
So I guess I have to pass you.
**[19:50] Miliera**
You pass. Congratulations!
**[19:55] Inglis**
Where are Rani and Pram?
**[19:57] Inglis**
Oh, did she pass already?
**[19:58] Rati**
No, she failed almost immediately.
**[20:02] Rati**
A hole opened, and she got tossed out.
**[20:05] Pram**
I was supposed to win this!
**[20:08] Rati**
I told you to give it up.
**[20:12] Inglis**
Rani!
**[20:13] Rani**
Chris!
**[20:14] Rani**
I finally made it out!
**[20:17] Miliera**
Rafinha, you pass!
**[20:20] Inglis**
Welcome back, Rani!
**[20:22] Leone**
Congratulations!
**[20:23] Rani**
Thank you!
**[20:24] Rani**
You two both passed, right?
**[20:27] Inglis**
Huh? Oh, of course.
**[20:28] Leone**
I guess...
**[20:30] Rani**
You guess?
**[20:32] Inglis**
Never mind.
**[20:33] Inglis**
Anyway, were you okay?
**[20:34] Rani**
I'm so tired!
**[20:37] Rani**
I'm gonna eat a lot and then sleep!
**[20:40] Inglis**
When you're tired, you move
around in your sleep a lot.
**[20:43] Inglis**
It's going to be a rough night.
**[20:45] Rani**
That's so mean, Chris!
**[20:47] Leone**
S-Sorry, it's my fault...
**[20:50] Rani**
No! No! That's not what I meant!
**[20:53] Liselotte**
If that's what this is about...
**[21:00] Rani**
You gonna be okay, Leone?
**[21:01] Leone**
I-I'm fine.
**[21:03] Inglis**
It'll be fine.
**[21:05] Inglis**
Liselotte's actually a good girl.
**[21:07] Leone**
Yeah, I know.
**[21:10] Liselotte**
Why are you standing outside
my room and talking about me?
**[21:16] Liselotte**
Welcome to *our* room!
**[21:18] Leone**
Th-Thanks for having me.
**[21:22] Liselotte**
Now, come inside.
**[21:28] Rani**
Hey...
**[21:31] Liselotte**
I was just kidding.
**[21:33] Inglis**
Liselotte can be surprisingly silly.
**[21:37] Liselotte**
I'd prefer you said I had a sense of humor.
**[21:40] Leone**
Wow, this room is so cute!
**[21:43] Inglis**
This isn't the furniture
that came with the room!
**[21:45] Liselotte**
I brought in the same kind I have at home!
**[21:48] Rani**
Hey, I brought a lot of party things
so we could have a celebration!
**[21:53] Liselotte**
A celebration of what?
**[21:54] Rani**
You know... making up... and stuff.
**[21:59] Inglis**
I brought lots of food, too!
**[22:02] Liselotte**
You've still got room for food
after all you ate at dinner?!

**[00:00] Inglis**
A party?
**[00:03] Miliera**
There's a party to celebrate the
appointment of a new Highlander emissary,
**[00:08] Miliera**
and they've asked that
you and Rafinha attend.
**[00:12] Rani**
It was Brother Raf who
sent that message, right?
**[00:15] Rani**
But why us?
**[00:18] Miliera**
He said if I told you to bring Lyn,
you'd understand.
**[00:23] Rani**
What does that mean?
**[00:25] Inglis**
I don't know...
**[00:27] Leone**
Um, why am I here?
**[00:31] Liselotte**
Because you're going to the party too.
**[00:37] Miliera**
Liselotte's father, the chancellor,
will also be in attendance.
**[00:42] Liselotte**
I told him I'm bringing a friend.
**[00:46] Leone**
B-But I...
**[00:50] Rani**
Come with us, Leone!
**[00:56] Leone**
Okay.
**[00:59] Leone**
Thanks, Liselotte.
**[01:00] Rani**
Okay, next stop: shopping for party dresses!

If we're going to a party,
we'll need dresses!
***SIGN*** Episode 7 The Hyral Menas's Disease
**[02:39] Leone**
You don't need to buy a dress for me too...
**[02:44] Rani**
It's fine!
**[02:45] Rani**
Brother Raf will pay for it all!
**[02:49] Inglis**
Sounds good to me.
**[02:51] Man**
Magicite beasts!
**[03:02] Inglis**
Eris!
**[03:04] Eris**
You guys...
**[03:05] Rani**
Where are the magicite beasts?
**[03:07] Eris**
It's fine. I defeated them all.
**[03:10] Leone**
Is that... a humanoid?
**[03:13] Rani**
Does that mean it used to be a Highlander?
**[03:15] Ripple**
No, it was a demihuman magicite beast.
**[03:18] Ripple**
Demihumans are affected by the Prism Flow.
**[03:22] Ripple**
But I'm a Hyral Menas, so I'm fine.
**[03:25] Rani**
Um, Ripple... are you all right?
**[03:28] Rani**
You look kind of unwell.
**[03:31] Ripple**
I'm fine, I'm fine.
**[03:33] Ripple**
Just a little dizzy. I'm feeling just fine!
**[03:36] Eris**
The same thing happened last time, though.
**[03:40] Inglis**
Last time?
**[03:41] Eris**
We've been through this several times
since returning to the capital.
**[03:45] Ripple**
We've seen magicite beasts
appear out of nowhere.
**[03:49] Eris**
And then Ripple ends up feeling sick.
**[03:51] Eris**
I don't know why.
**[03:54] Ripple**
I'll be just fine soon. It's okay.
**[03:58] Leone**
You think it's the Bloodchain Brigade that
are making the magicite beasts appear?
**[04:03] Eris**
I don't know.
**[04:05] Eris**
We'll have to have the new
emissary look into it.
**[04:12] Rani**
What's this?
**[04:13] Ripple**
The money for tailoring your dresses.
**[04:15] Eris**
Rafael had a sudden mission to deal with,
so he couldn't come.
**[04:19] Ripple**
That's why we came to give you this instead.
**[04:23] Rani**
Thank you!
**[04:25] Inglis**
Thanks for coming all this way!
**[04:27] Ripple**
It's fine! But in exchange,
let us come shopping with you.
***SIGN*** Several Days Later
**[04:36] Liselotte**
We're almost out of time.
**[04:38] Leone**
Will you need much longer?
**[04:40] Rani**
All set!
**[04:43] Liselotte**
You look great!
**[04:46] Leone**
You're gorgeous!
**[04:47] Inglis**
This is great! It's fantastic!
**[04:51] Rani**
Yup.
**[04:53] Rani**
I like how cute you are when
you get excited over yourself!
**[04:57] Liselotte**
That's rare...
**[05:00] Inglis**
I'm hungry.
**[05:02] Rani**
That's right.
**[05:03] Rani**
We wanted to leave room for all the good food
at the party, so we haven't eaten anything...
**[05:09] Leone**
Negotiations?
**[05:10] Miliera**
Yes. To see if we can get
the latest equipment.
**[05:15] Miliera**
It's a good chance to ask
the emissary directly.
**[05:19] Liselotte**
But will they say yes, you think?
**[05:23] Miliera**
I actually know the emissary.
**[05:27] Miliera**
I stayed with him when I was on
an exchange program in the Highland.
**[05:31] Inglis**
An exchange program in the Highland?
**[05:33] Rani**
I had no idea there was such a thing!
**[05:35] Miliera**
It was somewhat of a special case.
**[05:38] Miliera**
When Prince Wein was there on exchange,
I went as his bodyguard.
**[05:43] Leone**
Ma'am, would you ask the emissary
**[05:47] Leone**
if he has any information
on the Bloodchain Brigade?
**[05:55] Inglis**
Yeah, he might know something.
**[05:58] Inglis**
* And it'd be great if he knew anything*
* about the man in the black mask.*
**[06:03] Miliera**
That could be difficult.
**[06:05] Liselotte**
He might be willing to talk to the knights,
**[06:08] Liselotte**
but not to a bunch of academy students.
**[06:13] Leone**
Oh... Yeah, that's right.
**[06:16] Inglis**
Let's find information on the
Bloodchain Brigade ourselves.
**[06:20] Inglis**
I'll help.
**[06:22] Liselotte**
We mustn't rush things carelessly.
**[06:24] Leone**
Thanks, everyone.
**[06:30] L**
I'm so hungry!
**[06:32] L**
Let's hurry up and go inside, Chris!
**[06:34] Inglis**
Rani, if you run in that dress...
**[06:37] Inglis**
You'll trip.
**[06:39] Rani**
Why didn't you say so sooner?
**[06:41] Rafael**
You okay?
**[06:46] Rafael**
Are you hurt?
**[06:48] Rafael**
You mustn't cause trouble for Chris.
**[06:51] Rani**
Brother!
**[06:52] Rafael**
Chris, I'm sorry she's such a handful.
**[06:55] Rafael**
Thanks for always being there for her...
**[06:58] Inglis**
Not at all. She's always
been there for me, too.
**[07:02] Inglis**
Is something wrong, Cousin?
**[07:05] Rafael**
I was just thinking that this is the
first time I've seen you in a dress.
**[07:10] Rafael**
You're really pretty.
**[07:12] Inglis**
Thank you.
**[07:14] Inglis**
Rani helped me out.
**[07:16] Rani**
Right?
**[07:17] Rani**
I'm pretty confident in my choice this time!
**[07:20] Rafael**
And um... I guess you brought Lyn, too.
**[07:26] Rani**
Oh! Brother, you were just
looking at her breasts!
**[07:26] Inglis**
* I know it's just something men*
* instinctively do around women,*
**[07:29] Inglis**
*but to be honest, being looked at that way...*
**[07:30] Rafael**
S-Sorry! I was just wondering
where Lyn was...
**[07:34] Rafael**
What's wrong?
**[07:36] Rani**
We're hungry. We haven't eaten all day.
**[07:40] Inglis**
We heard we could get good food here.
**[07:44] Rafael**
Then let's talk later. Shall we head inside?
**[07:48] Inglis/Rafinha**
Let's!
**[07:50] Leone**
Yes, please take them inside, Sir Rafael.
**[07:53] Miliera**
The noise is so loud that the guests
might think *all* of us are starving.
**[07:59] Liselotte**
I'll go say hello to my father...
**[08:04] Leone**
Bye!
**[08:05] Rani**
See you later!
**[08:09] Crowd**
Did you see that girl? She's gorgeous!
**[08:12] Crowd**
She's as pretty as a doll...
I can't take my eyes off her!
**[08:18] Crowd**
Wh-What?
**[08:19] Crowd**
Their stomachs are growling?
**[08:22] Rafael**
Sorry! I've been so busy
that I haven't had time to eat!
**[08:26] Rani**
Brother's so nice! I love him!
**[08:30] Inglis**
Thank you, my dear cousin!
**[08:33] Rafael**
Okay, go ahead and eat!
**[08:35] Rani**
Yes!
**[08:36] Rani**
Chris, let's eat!
**[08:37] Inglis**
Yes, let's!
**[08:41] L**
Magicite beasts? Here?!
**[08:46] Rani**
My meat!
***SIGN*** What a surprise!
**[08:49] Rani**
No fair, Chris!
***SIGN*** Don't worry, I got you some too.
**[08:55] Leone**
When did she...
***SIGN*** Way to go, Chris!
**[09:00] Inglis**
Some of the tables are still intact.
**[09:02] Inglis**
Let's fight to protect our food!
**[09:05] Leone**
Protect the people, not the food!
**[09:08] Inglis**
Well, it's all the same in the end, right?
**[09:13] Inglis**
Aether Pierce!
**[09:14] Rafael**
Chris, get back!
**[09:16] Inglis**
*He's fast.*
**[09:22] Inglis**
*His strength, speed, and technique...*
**[09:25] Inglis**
*They're all on an entirely different level.*
**[09:27] Inglis**
* He's been no slouch*
* when it comes to practicing!*
**[09:30] Rafael**
I hope you're all unharmed?
**[09:31] Rani**
Wow, Brother!
**[09:33] Rani**
You're the only person besides Chris
who moves too fast for me to see!
**[09:37] Inglis**
That slash on the fifth attack
and thrust on the seventeenth
**[09:41] Inglis**
were especially well executed, Cousin Raf!
**[09:43] Leone**
You saw the whole thing, Inglis?
**[09:46] Inglis**
Yup! There were twenty-one attacks in all!
**[09:48] Leone**
Hey, how many did you see, Rafinha?
**[09:49] Rafael**
Maybe you didn't need my help.
**[09:52] Rani**
Just the first two or three.
**[09:52] Rafael**
It's just habit, though, you know.
**[09:53] Leone**
I'm glad it's not just me.
**[09:55] Inglis**
No, it was wonderful to see!
**[09:58] Inglis**
I'd love to challenge you to a duel soon!
**[10:01] Inglis**
Holding nothing back!
**[10:02] Rafael**
Well, I wouldn't want you to get hurt...
**[10:06] Rafael**
I guess we could do a
practice fight, though...
**[10:08] Inglis**
* What would get him to fight me*
* at full strength?*
**[10:12] Miliera**
Rafael, leave this room to them,
**[10:15] Miliera**
and hurry to Prince Wein
and Emissary Theodore!
**[10:20] Rafael**
All right.
**[10:21] Rafael**
Rani, Chris, Leone.
Keep the people here safe.
**[10:25] Rani**
Okay, Brother!
**[10:27] Inglis**
Got it!
**[10:29] Leone**
Leave it to us!
**[10:32] Miliera**
Here you go, everyone.
**[10:34] Rani**
I was looking forward to
wearing these dresses,
**[10:36] Rani**
but I guess we're doing the
same thing we always do.
**[10:38] Leone**
No kidding. They could've let us have
the day off to have some fun...
**[10:43] Inglis**
I *am* having fun!
I love fighting magicite beasts!
**[10:48] Rani**
Chris is special!
She's a wild animal in a dress!
**[10:53] Leone**
That's right!
**[10:55] Inglis**
How rude. I'm going
to fight elegantly today.
**[10:55] Miliera**
* Is the fact that they're not scared*
* in a situation like this*
**[10:58] Miliera**
*a sign that they'll make good knights?*
**[11:03] Inglis**
Like a proper lady.
**[11:05] Inglis**
Observe!
**[11:17] Inglis**
See? Very elegant!
**[11:19] Leone**
Yes, but...
**[11:21] Leone**
You're taking them down so easily that
you're actually more scary than usual.
**[11:25] Inglis**
Yes, it's a little too easy.
**[11:27] Inglis**
But I don't want to mess up my dress.
**[11:30] Inglis**
Oh, you guys finish them off.
**[11:33] Rani**
I know!
**[11:35] Rani**
Chris! They're coming!
**[11:38] Leone**
From over here, too!
**[11:39] Leone**
They're fast!
**[11:46] Inglis**
*I suppose one finger is too slow.*
**[11:49] Inglis**
*In which case...*
**[11:54] Inglis**
Yes! It worked!
**[11:56] Rani**
What? With both hands?!
**[11:58] Inglis**
Check this out, Rani!
**[12:13] Inglis**
That was a good fight, huh?
**[12:16] Rani**
I'm glad you had fun!
**[12:19] Inglis**
I was enjoying myself so much,
I went a little overboard.
**[12:22] Leone**
It was more than a little, I thought.
**[12:24] Rani**
Ma'am, we beat the magicite beasts,
which means we can eat now, right?
**[12:29] Inglis**
Right?
**[12:30] Leone**
You two...
**[12:33] Miliera**
Sure, in moderation.
**[12:35] Miliera**
I'll go finish them off while
you replenish your strength.
**[12:41] Inglis/Rafinha**
Thank you!
**[12:44] Liselotte**
Leone! Principal Miliera!
**[12:47] Leone**
You're safe!
**[12:49] Liselotte**
Yes. So's my father.
**[12:52] Liselotte**
But...
**[12:54] Liselotte**
Huh?
**[12:55] Liselotte**
Where are Inglis and Rafinha?
***SIGN*** Oh, it's Liselotte!
***SIGN*** Hey there!
**[13:02] Liselotte**
I have no idea what you're saying.
**[13:05] Liselotte**
Anyway, come with me!
**[13:07] Liselotte**
Something's wrong with Ripple.
**[13:18] Rani**
Brother Rafael!
**[13:20] Rafael**
Looks like you finished up.
**[13:23] Rafael**
Which means our only remaining problem is...
**[13:30] Rani**
What is that?
**[13:31] Inglis**
The space around her is distorted?
**[13:33] Leone**
Is that awful-looking light what
summoned the magicite beasts?
**[13:37] Liselotte**
Yes, she suddenly collapsed, and...
**[13:48] Liselotte**
We defeated the magicite beasts,
but I don't know what's going on...
**[13:51] Knight A**
So that Hyral Menas summoned
magicite beasts to make them attack us!
**[13:57] Rani**
No, Ripple wouldn't do that!
**[14:00] Rani**
Eris and the other Hyral Menases
**[14:02] Rani**
have worked so hard to protect
this country and its people!
**[14:06] Rani**
You can't trust them, even after that?
**[14:09] Knight B**
Of course, we know that.
**[14:12] Knight B**
You're right, but...
**[14:17] Eris**
Don't be angry at them.
**[14:18] Eris**
They have a duty to be ready for danger.
**[14:23] Rani**
O-Okay...
**[14:25] Wein**
Any idea what could have
caused this, Theodore?
***SIGN*** Highland Emissary Theodore
**[14:29] Theodore**
It's hard to say for sure,
but it may be the Hierarchy.
**[14:35] Rani**
The Hierarchy?
**[14:37] Miliera**
There are two factions of Highlanders.
**[14:40] Miliera**
One is the Grand Duchy.
**[14:42] Miliera**
They give us not only Artifacts, but also
Flying Gears and other new technology.
**[14:49] Miliera**
The other is the Hierarchy.
**[14:51] Miliera**
They prefer to keep new technology from
those of us on the surface whenever possible.
**[14:58] Miliera**
Each of these two large factions
**[15:01] Miliera**
would send Hyral Menases to each country
to maintain the balance of power.
**[15:07] Theodore**
But that balance is collapsing.
**[15:10] Theodore**
Ripple is a Hyral Menas
created by the Hierarchy.
**[15:13] Theodore**
They may have prepared a way
to destroy her from within.
**[15:17] Eris**
So Ripple's just a toy
in your power struggles?
**[15:22] Theodore**
Eris...
**[15:25] Eris**
She offered herself up to become a
Hyral Menas and protect the surface.
**[15:30] Eris**
But...
**[15:32] Eris**
the Highland... the Highlanders...
are doing this to her?
**[15:35] Eris**
Why are we even here?
**[15:41] Rani**
To protect, I think.
**[15:43] Rani**
You protected me.
**[15:46] Rani**
And I'm glad we have the Flying Gears, too!
**[15:49] Rani**
We can get to people who are far away faster
**[15:52] Rani**
and protect them from the magicite beasts!
**[15:55] Eris**
You...
**[16:01] Leone**
Rafinha's right, isn't she, Inglis?
**[16:05] Inglis**
Yes. I like it that way,
because I get to fight more.
**[16:08] Leone**
No, that's not what I meant...
**[16:12] Rani**
I'm sorry for speaking out of turn.
**[16:16] Eris**
No, it's better to think the way that you do.
**[16:20] Theodore**
I'll do my best to bring
Ripple back to normal.
**[16:25] Eris**
Thank you.
**[16:28] Eris**
And I need to thank you, too.
**[16:31] Eris**
For speaking up back there. Thank you.
**[16:36] Rani**
Of course!
**[16:37] Theodore**
It was a pure-hearted and honest opinion.
**[16:39] Theodore**
You're not only beautiful on the outside,
but you have a beautiful heart, too.
**[16:43] Rani**
N-No, I...
**[16:46] Rani**
"Beautiful?"
**[16:48] Inglis**
*I've never seen Rani like this before.*
**[16:51] Inglis**
* Perhaps I've finally found*
* the boy I need to drive off!*
**[16:54] Theodore**
Would you tell me your name?
**[16:56] Inglis**
This is Rafinha Bilford.
**[16:58] Inglis**
The younger sister of
Holy Knight Rafael over there.
**[17:02] Inglis**
I'm Inglis Eucus, her squire.
**[17:05] Rani**
Hey, Chris! What's gotten into you?
**[17:08] Inglis**
I'm just doing what a squire should!
**[17:11] Theodore**
Rafinha? Inglis?
**[17:14] Theodore**
So you're the ones who
saved my little sister?
**[17:18] Inglis**
Sister?
**[17:20] Theodore**
Seilyn is my little sister.
**[17:26] Theodore**
I heard she was turned
into a magicite beast.
**[17:29] Theodore**
Where is she now?
**[17:31] Inglis**
Right here.
**[17:35] Theodore**
Seilyn?
**[17:37] Theodore**
It's small, but yes, I can feel her mana.
**[17:42] Rani**
I'm sorry. All we could do
was save her in this state.
**[17:48] Theodore**
No, you did well.
**[17:51] Theodore**
I'll find a way to turn her back.
**[17:54] Rani**
Theodore...
**[17:56] Theodore**
I'll take her, then.
**[17:59] Inglis**
Of course.
**[18:03] Inglis**
Seilyn, you're safe now!
**[18:07] Theodore**
Ouch!
**[18:09] Inglis**
What's wrong, Seilyn?
**[18:18] Rani**
Lyn, your brother's here for you!
**[18:24] Inglis**
Lyn, that tickles!
**[18:28] Rani**
Chris, don't move. I'll pull her out!
**[18:32] Inglis**
No! Rani!
**[18:36] Rani**
Maybe she doesn't want to go back?
**[18:38] Theodore**
It feels like she's different
from the Seilyn I knew.
**[18:42] Theodore**
Maybe I should leave her
in your care for now.
**[18:46] Rani**
All right.
**[18:47] Rani**
That's fine with us.
**[18:50] Miliera**
Theodore, Ripple has...
**[18:53] Rani**
She's awake?!
**[19:03] Rani**
Whew...
**[19:04] Inglis**
Are you okay?
**[19:06] Ripple**
For now.
**[19:08] Ripple**
But I remember what happened, a little.
**[19:12] Ripple**
I hurt everyone... I'm sorry.
**[19:15] Eris**
It's not your fault.
**[19:17] Rani**
That's right.
**[19:19] Ripple**
Thanks, you guys.
**[19:21] Ripple**
But I can't take this anymore...
**[19:24] Ripple**
I'm not sure why I even
became a Hyral Menas.
**[19:27] Ripple**
Listen, Wein. If you can't find a way
to stop this, go ahead and destroy me.
**[19:33] Ripple**
Or throw me away somewhere
where nobody else is around.
**[19:37] Wein**
Never!
**[19:39] Wein**
We could never do that to the
woman who protects our country!
**[19:44] Wein**
This won't go on for much longer.
**[19:45] Wein**
Just rest someplace that's well guarded.
**[19:52] Rafael**
I'll find a place for her right away.
And I'll post guards to protect her.
**[19:56] Wein**
Thanks.
**[19:57] Inglis**
Excuse me.
**[19:59] Inglis**
I have a suggestion...
**[20:02] Wein**
Go ahead and say it.
**[20:04] Inglis**
Why not bring her to the knights' academy?
**[20:08] Wein**
The knights' academy?
**[20:10] Inglis**
Losing Ripple will already be
a big hit to the knights' strength.
**[20:15] Inglis**
And if you have to assign people
to guard her, you'll lose even more strength.
**[20:21] Inglis**
That should be avoided, I think.
**[20:24] Wein**
So we have someone besides the knights
protect her, to help keep the nation safe?
**[20:29] Rani**
That's a great idea, Chris!
**[20:31] Rani**
We can keep Ripple safe ourselves!
**[20:34] Rafael**
I'm against this.
**[20:37] Rafael**
The academy is in the middle of a city.
**[20:40] Rafael**
If the magicite beasts get out, it will
put the people of the capital in danger.
**[20:45] Theodore**
If I may speak, too...
**[20:47] Theodore**
If we want to find out why this happened,
we'll need Miliera's help.
**[20:53] Theodore**
Which means...
**[20:55] Miliera**
It would be best to have her at the academy,
where my lab is located.
**[21:04] Inglis**
Ripple is feeling guilty right now.
**[21:07] Inglis**
So we'll defeat all the
magicite beasts she summons
**[21:11] Inglis**
without any of us getting hurt
or putting the townspeople in danger.
**[21:16] Inglis**
Then she won't feel so bad.
**[21:19] Inglis**
I want to protect her heart, as well.
**[21:24] Ripple**
Inglis...
**[21:26] Rani**
I like that!
**[21:27] Rani**
"Protect her heart!"
**[21:31] Inglis**
Thanks...
**[21:32] Wein**
I've decided to put my faith in your resolve
**[21:36] Wein**
and leave her in the academy's care.
**[21:39] Wein**
Miliera, I entrust the rest to you.
**[21:41] Miliera**
Of course, Your Highness.
**[21:43] Wein**
Theodore, please do what you can
to assist them, too.
**[21:45] Theodore**
We'll get to the bottom of this. I promise.
**[21:48] Ripple**
Thanks, everyone.
**[21:51] All**
Right!
**[21:52] Leone**
I didn't realize Inglis cared so much.
**[21:56] Liselotte**
You're always seeing the best in people, huh?
**[22:00] Liselotte**
Being around Ripple will give her
more chances to fight magicite beasts.
**[22:04] Liselotte**
You don't think that's what she was thinking?
**[22:08] Leone**
Maybe that's it...
***SIGN*** m 506 97 l 609 99 611 247 516 302 488 145

look great
with animal
ears, too!

***SIGN*** Woof!
***SIGN*** A matching pair!

Come on! Pick up the pace!
**[00:13] Rati**
This long-distance running

***SIGN*** Episode 8 The Order to Protect Ripple
**[02:22] Leone**
Those are the upperclassmen.
**[02:24] Liselotte**
Seems like it.
**[02:26] Miliera**
Everybody's here, right?
**[02:29] Miliera**
I have very important news for you all!
**[02:33] Miliera**
You'll get the official announcement
at tomorrow's morning assembly,
**[02:36] Miliera**
but we're going to have a guest:
Ripple, the Hyral Menas.
**[02:45] Silva**
I see. I understand the situation.
**[02:49] Inglis**
A Special-class Rune...
**[02:50] Liselotte**
That's Silva Eiren.
**[02:53] Liselotte**
The younger brother of Ledas Eiren,
head of the Royal Guard,
**[02:57] Liselotte**
and the only Special-class
Rune bearer at the academy.
**[03:00] Silva**
We are to protect Ripple and eliminate
any magicite beasts that appear,
**[03:07] Silva**
while ensuring that nothing in the
vicinity is damaged. Correct?
**[03:11] Miliera**
Correct!
**[03:13] Miliera**
We can't predict when Ripple's
condition will strike,
**[03:16] Miliera**
or when the magicite beasts will appear.
**[03:19] Ripple**
Sorry for the trouble, everyone.
**[03:22] Inglis**
So he's the strongest
student at the academy.
**[03:25] Inglis**
That's great. I'd love to fight him!
**[03:27] Liselotte**
That's all you ever think about.
**[03:30] Miliera**
You've all been specially
chosen from your grades.
**[03:33] Miliera**
Each grade's members will form a team,
**[03:36] Miliera**
and each team will take turns
protecting Ripple for a day.
**[03:39] Miliera**
Please isolate the magicite beasts
from the surrounding area
**[03:43] Miliera**
using a barrier generated by these Artifacts
before attempting to eliminate them.
**[03:46] Theodore**
We ask that you have someone who can create
a barrier by Ripple's side at all times.
**[03:53] Rafinha**
I don't see a bow.
**[03:55] Rafinha**
I can't use any of these.
**[03:57] Inglis**
I guess I'll take one.
**[03:59] Inglis**
* If I transform my aether into mana,*
* I might be able to generate a barrier.*
**[04:03] Silva**
There's no point in giving you that.
**[04:06] Silva**
A Runeless squire can't use
one of those things.
**[04:10] Silva**
Keep your hands off them.
**[04:11] Inglis**
Okay, got it!
**[04:14] Rafinha**
Wait! You don't need to—
**[04:16] Inglis**
Rani, it's fine.
**[04:19] Silva**
What's a squire doing here, anyway?
**[04:23] Silva**
Having a Runeless here
just puts the rest of us at risk.
**[04:26] Silva**
Leave, now.
**[04:27] Inglis**
* Good grief. He's the highly strung,*
* short-tempered type, right?*
**[04:31] Silva**
And not just the squire.
**[04:33] Silva**
We also have a traitor's
blood relative in our midst.
**[04:36] Silva**
I can't entrust my life
to the sister of the traitor Leon.
**[04:40] Rafinha**
Leone and Leon are different people.
**[04:43] Rafinha**
Even as an upperclassman,
you can't talk to her like that!
**[04:46] Liselotte**
That's right!
**[04:47] Liselotte**
That's such a shallow thing to think!
**[04:49] Liselotte**
When you get to know her, you'll understand.
**[04:52] Silva**
What?
**[04:53] Ripple**
No fighting, okay?
**[04:56] Miliera**
Silva, I think that remark
went a little far...
**[04:59] Inglis**
In that case, Upperclassman Silva...
**[05:00] Inglis**
How about determining our worthiness
for the mission first-hand through battle?
**[05:05] Silva**
A battle? Between you people and me?
**[05:09] Yua**
Excuse me.
**[05:12] Yua**
I don't want to. I don't care enough.
**[05:15] Yua**
And if the squires are supposed to leave...
**[05:18] Yua**
then I'm a squire, so I'm leaving.
**[05:24] Miliera**
Wait, Yua!
**[05:27] Yua**
What?
**[05:28] Yua**
I'm sleepy.
**[05:30] Miliera**
Did you hear what I said?
**[05:33] Miliera**
I need your help.
**[05:36] Yua**
Tee-hee.
**[05:38] Inglis**
* It's hard to discern exactly*
* what that "tee-hee" means.*
**[05:41] Miliera**
You're the best student in the second year!
**[05:44] Miliera**
We need you here!
**[05:46] Morris**
That's right, Yua!
**[05:47] Morris**
I don't know if we're strong
enough to do this without you!
**[05:52] Yua**
Okay.
**[05:53] Yua**
I'll do it.
**[05:55] Inglis**
Okay, Yua. Let's all fight Silva together—
**[05:59] Yua**
No.
**[06:01] Silva**
So you lack the courage to face me, then.
**[06:05] Yua**
I already know who's stronger.
**[06:08] Yua**
I don't like bullying the weak.
**[06:11] Silva**
What?
**[06:12] Inglis**
Principal, did those two...
**[06:16] Miliera**
Yes, they had a mock battle one time...
**[06:19] Morris**
Yua, you can't say that to his face!
**[06:19] Inglis**
And Yua won?
**[06:22] Yua**
First he wants me to leave,
then he wants a duel.
**[06:22] Miliera**
Yes. Ever since then,
they've been like oil and water.
**[06:25] Yua**
He's a pain in the butt.
**[06:26] Miliera**
As the strongest of the freshmen,
**[06:27] Silva**
I'm not the one who proposed a battle.
**[06:29] Miliera**
it'd be a huge help if you could get
them to see eye to eye again...
**[06:34] Inglis**
If you want me to beat the both
of them at once, I'd be happy to!
**[06:39] Ripple**
I'm sorry, everyone.
**[06:41] Ripple**
This is my fault.
**[06:44] Ripple**
I'm causing problems for you all...
**[06:48] Silva**
Ripple...
**[06:52] Silva**
Ripple?!
**[06:55] Morris**
Wh-What?
**[06:57] Rafinha**
Be careful, everyone!
**[06:58] Miliera**
Theodore, get away from here!
**[07:01] Miliera**
I'll put up a barrier! Be careful!
**[07:08] Inglis**
Here they come!
**[07:09] Silva**
Ma'am, who's in charge today?
**[07:15] Silva**
May we third-year students
have the first day?
**[07:18] Miliera**
That's fine by me...
**[07:21] Morris**
Magicite beasts!
**[07:23] 2nd-Year Student**
They're demihuman!
**[07:28] Silva**
You all heard the principal.
**[07:30] Silva**
Nobody but us third-years
can lay a hand on them—
**[07:36] Silva**
You there!
**[07:38] Silva**
I just said you can't lay a hand on them!
**[07:39] Inglis**
I know!
**[07:40] Inglis**
That's why I used my foot!
**[07:42] 3rd Year Student**
That girl's a squire, but she's so strong!
**[07:47] 3rd Year Student**
I can see why they called her here!
**[07:51] Morris**
And...
**[07:52] Morris/Students**
She's so cute!
**[07:55] Silva**
We've got more important
things to think about now!
**[07:57] Silva**
Everyone in my grade, fight!
**[08:01] Silva**
No amount of physical damage
will hurt a magicite beast!
**[08:13] Inglis**
*A gun Artifact? That's a rare sight.*
**[08:16] Inglis**
*Let's see what he's capable—*
**[08:22] Inglis**
Rani!
**[08:23] Inglis**
Don't come running to me
if he gets mad at you!
**[08:25] Rafinha**
But I didn't lay a hand on them!
**[08:29] Rafinha**
I shot them with my bow.
**[08:30] Inglis**
Oh! That's fine, then!
**[08:32] Silva**
That's not what I meant!
**[08:34] Silva**
You can't selfishly—
**[08:34] Rafinha**
Who's being selfish?
**[08:37] Rafinha**
Ripple's going to suffer if someone
here gets hurt, no matter who it is!
**[08:41] Rafinha**
Your pride isn't what matters here!
We all need to work together!
**[08:45] Silva**
What? You don't have a Special-class Rune.
**[08:49] Silva**
You don't have the right—
**[08:49] Rafinha**
I've seen someone who does up close!
**[08:52] Rafinha**
You're going to be a holy knight and
fight alongside a Hyral Menas, right?
**[08:57] Rafinha**
Then you should try to be more
understanding of her than anyone here!
**[09:02] Inglis**
*When she believes in something,*
**[09:04] Inglis**
* she won't back down,*
* no matter who she's talking to.*
**[09:07] Inglis**
*That's the spirit!*
**[09:10] Students**
Silva! More incoming!
**[09:12] Silva**
All right! Third-years, engage the enemy!
**[09:20] Liselotte**
I just happened to swing my spear,
and it hit the enemy!
**[09:25] Leone**
And I guess my sword collided
with something! Sorry!
**[09:29] Silva**
Why are you all like this?
**[09:31] Miliera**
Now, now, Silva!
**[09:33] Miliera**
Let's say it's the principal's orders!
Everybody, engage the enemy!
**[09:38] Inglis**
I'll do my best!
**[09:44] Rafinha**
Yua!
**[09:46] Rafinha**
You heard what she said, right?
**[09:47] Rafinha**
Don't be upset! Help fight!
**[09:50] Yua**
I'm sorry!
**[09:56] Yua**
Smack.
**[10:01] Inglis**
Wow!
**[10:03] Inglis**
*I may be under increased gravity right now,*
**[10:06] Inglis**
* but this is the first time*
* anyone's been faster than me.*
**[10:11] Yua**
Sorry.
**[10:12] Inglis**
It's fine!
**[10:16] Yua**
Nice.
**[10:18] Inglis**
Thank you! I'd love to battle you sometime!
**[10:21] Yua**
I'd rather not.
**[10:23] Yua**
I don't want to compare my
strength with other people.
**[10:26] Inglis**
Aww, come on!
**[10:27] Yua**
No.
**[10:28] Inglis**
Please!
**[10:29] Yua**
Not a chance.
**[10:30] Inglis**
I'm begging you!
**[10:30] Students**
Wow, those two are incredible.
**[10:31] Yua**
Never.
**[10:32] Inglis**
Please!
**[10:32] Students**
This is so easy.
**[10:33] Yua**
No way.
**[10:33] Silva**
Stop gawking and fight!
**[10:41] Theodore**
That should do it.
**[10:44] Rafinha**
Ripple!
**[10:46] Leone**
If it's the same as it was before,
she should wake up soon.
**[10:53] Miliera**
Good work, everyone.
**[10:56] Miliera**
But this is only a way to keep the damage
to a minimum, and not a solution.
**[11:01] Silva**
Do you have a solution?
**[11:03] Theodore**
It's going to take time,
but we'll do our best.
**[11:06] Miliera**
I would appreciate it if you would!
**[11:11] Miliera**
I don't know how much of this
the school building can take.
**[11:15] Silva**
That's your fault!
**[11:17] Silva**
For not watching where you
were hitting the enemy!
**[11:20] Yua**
We held back as best we could...
**[11:23] Yua**
Right? Um...
**[11:24] Inglis**
My name's Inglis, Yua!
**[11:26] Yua**
In... Ingl... In...
**[11:31] Morris**
Yua's not good at learning people's names.
**[11:34] Yua**
That's right, Bean Sprout.
**[11:36] Morris**
See? She's known me for a year.
**[11:39] Morris**
The name's Morris, by the way.
Nice to meet you.
**[11:42] Inglis**
Call me what you like, then, Yua!
**[11:46] Yua**
Okay, then...
**[11:48] Yua**
You can be Boobs.
**[11:51] Yua**
And if the upperclassmen had worked harder,
**[11:54] Yua**
we wouldn't have needed to do all that.
**[11:57] Silva**
I was just holding back so that my Artifact
wouldn't destroy the building!
**[12:01] Silva**
Think when you fight!
**[12:03] Yua**
We were thinking, right, Boobs?
**[12:09] Inglis**
*When I became king of an entire country,*
**[12:11] Inglis**
* I never thought the day would*
* come when I'd be called "Boobs."*
**[12:14] Inglis**
* You never know what*
* fate's got in store for you.*
**[12:21] Ripple**
And that's what she decided
to call you, Inglis?
**[12:25] Inglis**
It's embarrassing.
**[12:27] Ripple**
She didn't bother to learn my name either.
**[12:30] Inglis**
What did she call you?
**[12:32] Ripple**
"Lady Animal Ears."
**[12:34] Ripple**
It doesn't bother me.
**[12:36] Ripple**
What did she call you, Rafinha?
**[12:39] Rafinha**
"Little Devil."
**[12:40] Inglis**
That thunder she brought down
must've really scared her...
**[12:44] Rafinha**
I don't think it's fair.
**[12:48] Ripple**
And Leone?
**[12:49] Leone**
"Boobs #2."
**[12:51] Leone**
"Two" for short.
**[12:54] Ripple**
And you, Liselotte?
**[12:56] Liselotte**
C... "Curly Hair."
**[13:00] Ripple**
Man, that sucks for all you guys!
**[13:02] Rafinha**
I'm more upset with Silva!
**[13:04] Rafinha**
What was his problem?
**[13:06] Rafinha**
He's so arrogant and nasty!
**[13:09] Ripple**
He's a little wound up.
**[13:13] Ripple**
But I think he'd be a good match for me.
**[13:17] Inglis**
Checkmate.
**[13:19] Leone**
I-I lose.
**[13:21] Rafinha**
Chris is always good at whatever she does.
**[13:24] Liselotte**
Checkmate.
**[13:28] Rafinha**
I lose again...
**[13:30] Liselotte**
Would you like to play a game, Ripple?
**[13:33] Ripple**
Nah, I'm not really into this stuff.
I'm more of the physical type.
**[13:38] Inglis**
How about a battle, then?
**[13:40] Inglis**
A bit of exercise is good for the mind, too!
**[13:44] Rafinha**
Chris, we're here to *protect* Ripple!
**[13:50] Liselotte**
That's right. You're supposed
to defend her, not fight her!
**[13:55] Ripple**
Sure.
**[13:56] Ripple**
Yeah, let's do it.
**[13:58] Inglis**
R-Really?
**[14:00] Ripple**
Miliera and Theodore were saying they
wanted to see what happens when I fight.
**[14:06] Ripple**
And I want to see your
strength for myself, too.
**[14:10] Ripple**
Wow, you sure look pleased!
**[14:16] Miliera**
Well, I assumed you'd say that eventually.
**[14:20] Theodore**
You know your students well, then.
**[14:24] Inglis**
In that case, can we get started right away?
**[14:26] Miliera**
Theodore, give it to her.
**[14:29] Theodore**
Leone, here.
**[14:31] Rafinha**
It's the same shape as Leone's sword.
**[14:35] Leone**
What's this?
**[14:36] Theodore**
A Greater Artifact.
**[14:38] Miliera**
After the battle with the
magicite beasts yesterday,
**[14:41] Miliera**
it seemed safer to move them somewhere
else than put up a barrier.
**[14:46] Miliera**
So I asked Theodore for it.
**[14:49] Theodore**
Its Gift moves everyone in its vicinity
into a pocket space, isolating them.
**[14:55] Liselotte**
That's amazing!
**[14:57] Miliera**
Leone's Rune is the most compatible
with it in terms of element.
**[15:02] Leone**
Mine?
**[15:05] Theodore**
We'd like you to test how strong
the space is and how long it holds.
**[15:09] Theodore**
So please conduct your battle
within the effect of this Artifact.
**[15:13] Miliera**
If it works, we can share it
with the other teams.
**[15:17] Inglis**
Okay, Leone. Do it right now! Now! Now!
**[15:22] Ripple**
She can't wait to fight, can she?
**[15:26] Miliera**
Go ahead.
**[15:28] Miliera**
We'd like to see how it
works from inside, too.
**[15:31] Leone**
Okay, then. Let's see...
**[15:36] Theodore**
Focus your mind.
**[15:41] Inglis**
Leone, you can do it!
**[15:43] Miliera**
You don't need to force it.
**[15:45] Miliera**
Just give yourself over to
the flow the Rune creates...
**[15:48] Leone**
Okay...
**[15:55] Miliera**
Yes, just like that...
**[16:01] Leone**
I did it!
**[16:02] Rafinha**
It's like the Labyrinth of Trials...
**[16:06] Inglis**
You okay, Leone? You feeling all right?
**[16:10] Leone**
I-I'm okay.
**[16:12] Leone**
You can start.
**[16:15] Inglis**
Thanks!
**[16:16] Inglis**
Let's do this, Ripple!
**[16:18] Rafinha**
Yeah!
**[16:21] Inglis**
* It's been so long since*
* I last fought a Hyral Menas.*
**[16:25] Inglis**
*I can barely contain my excitement!*
**[16:27] Ripple**
Miliera, block any stray shots, okay?
**[16:30] Miliera**
Okay!
**[16:31] Miliera**
Start light and gradually ramp it up, okay?
**[16:37] Ripple**
Roger.
**[16:38] Ripple**
Come on, then.
**[16:40] Inglis**
Here I go!
**[16:46] Inglis**
*A head-on fight!*
**[16:49] Ripple**
Nice punch!
**[16:54] Liselotte**
M-My goodness.
**[16:57] Liselotte**
Inglis is attacking with incredible speed.
**[17:00] Rafinha**
But Ripple's dodging it all easily!
**[17:08] Ripple**
That was a little close!
**[17:10] Ripple**
I'll do this my usual way, then.
**[17:15] Ripple**
Close-up fighting isn't my style.
**[17:19] Inglis**
A gun?
**[17:20] Inglis**
Now I understand why you said
Silva would be a good match for you.
**[17:24] Ripple**
Yup.
**[17:26] Ripple**
Here I go.
**[17:34] Rafinha**
An ice blade!
**[17:37] Inglis**
*I made an ice blade with magic! It worked!*
**[17:41] Inglis**
* If I'd waited until the last second to dodge,*
* I wouldn't have given her that opening.*
**[17:45] Ripple**
Nice. Here I go!
**[17:45] Inglis**
*I'll address that next time.*
**[17:51] Ripple**
Oh, no!
**[17:53] Miliera**
I can handle this much.
**[17:58] Miliera**
Nothing stronger, though!
**[18:03] Inglis**
That means I can give it my all!
**[18:05] Miliera**
Please listen to what I'm saying!
**[18:10] Inglis**
*I need to get close and take the offensive!*
**[18:14] Inglis**
* Ripple's strength is her ability*
* to keep her distance at all times.*
**[18:20] Inglis**
*I need to overcome that and win!*
**[18:23] Rafinha**
They're getting closer!
**[18:26] Liselotte**
Inglis is trying to get
close enough to attack!
**[18:32] Ripple**
I'm not going to stop moving.
**[18:34] Inglis**
I'll catch up to you!
**[18:39] Ripple**
You look so happy!
**[18:41] Inglis**
* If I can get one step closer,*
* she'll be in range!*
**[18:46] Inglis**
Another gun?
**[18:47] Ripple**
Yup. Dual handguns.
**[18:56] Ripple**
There!
**[18:57] Inglis**
I'm not done yet!
**[18:58] Ripple**
Now it's my turn to go on the offensive.
**[18:59] Ripple**
Can you get close to me?
**[19:01] Liselotte**
I can't see an opening from either of them!
**[19:03] Rafinha**
Chris!
**[19:05] Inglis**
*What do I do?*
**[19:06] Inglis**
*Wait for her to run out of ammo?*
**[19:09] Inglis**
*Or will my stamina run out first?*
**[19:15] Inglis**
*She's not moving?*
**[19:18] Inglis**
*So that's it.*
**[19:19] Inglis**
* I'm fighting at her range,*
* which means I'm moving and she's not.*
**[19:23] Inglis**
*So maybe...*
**[19:26] Inglis**
* If I turn toward her and become*
* a smaller target...*
**[19:30] Inglis**
*The bullets will have to be closer together!*
**[19:35] Inglis**
*Got you!*
**[19:39] Ripple**
Take this!
**[19:44] Inglis**
There's my opening!
**[19:50] Rafinha**
She'll hit them!
**[19:55] Inglis**
Are you okay?
**[19:57] Ripple**
Oww...
**[19:59] Ripple**
You not only deflected my bullets,
you threw them back at me?
**[20:01] Ripple**
Are you some kind of pervert?
**[20:03] Ripple**
Miliera, thanks for catching me
with your barrier.
**[20:07] Miliera**
No, I didn't do anything.
**[20:11] Miliera**
I thought you were going to slam into it,
but when you touched the barrier,
**[20:16] Miliera**
it disappeared like it had been sucked away.
**[20:19] Theodore**
You mean your mana was drained away?
**[20:23] Inglis**
Um, can we continue?
**[20:24] Theodore**
Can we test that with
someone else's Artifact?
**[20:29] Liselotte**
You can use mine.
**[20:30] Inglis**
Um, our fight...
**[20:33] Rafinha**
Chris!
**[20:33] Rafinha**
They're having a serious conversation!
**[20:35] Theodore**
Touch this, Ripple.
**[20:44] Theodore**
Does anything feel strange?
**[20:46] Liselotte**
Nothing.
**[20:49] Theodore**
Miliera, now you borrow her Artifact.
**[20:53] Miliera**
The angel wings?
**[20:55] Miliera**
I'm a little old for those...
**[21:04] Theodore**
Go ahead, Ripple.
**[21:17] Theodore**
It's absorbing her mana,
just like we thought.
**[21:20] Theodore**
But only Miliera's!
**[21:23] Miliera**
Maybe it's because Hyral Menases
can only take power
**[21:26] Miliera**
from a holy knight with a Special-class Rune?
**[21:29] Theodore**
Yes. The weapon transformation power,
which normally requires intent on her part
**[21:33] Theodore**
and the power of a Special Rune, has been
twisted into absorbing mana on its own.
**[21:39] Theodore**
And when a certain amount
has been absorbed...
**[21:45] Theodore**
It summons magicite beasts.
**[21:47] Ripple**
Sorry, Inglis.
**[21:50] Ripple**
Take care of them for me...
**[21:53] Inglis**
Ripple!
**[21:55] Leone**
I-I'm sorry!
**[21:58] Leone**
I can't keep this up anymore!

**[01:58] Miliera**
My desk!
**[02:00] Rani**
It's huge!
**[02:01] Inglis**
Be careful, Rani!
**[02:03] Inglis**
It's probably as strong as Seilyn and Rahl
were when they became magicite beasts!
**[02:09] Rani**
Your words and your face
are telling two different stories!
**[02:11] Inglis**
Oh, whoops.
**[02:20] Inglis**
*It's a different color,*
**[02:21] Inglis**
* but I feel the same flow of power*
* as I did when I saw those heat rays.*
**[02:25] Inglis**
*Which means...*
**[02:27] Inglis**
It's probably going to fire
heat rays everywhere!
**[02:31] Miliera**
S-Stop it, please!
**[02:32] Inglis**
Of course.
**[02:34] Inglis**
The cafeteria's on the floor below!
**[02:36] Leone**
That's not what's important now!
**[02:41] Inglis**
Maybe I can't stop it firing, but...
**[02:49] Liselotte**
She's so absurdly strong...
**[02:52] Inglis**
Sorry, ma'am.
**[02:54] Inglis**
I made a big hole in the roof.
**[02:58] Miliera**
W-Well, that's not so bad...
**[03:03] Leone**
It's going to come back down, though.
**[03:05] Rani**
We need Artifacts to
defeat a magicite beast.
**[03:11] Rani**
It's going to land in the schoolyard!
**[03:14] Liselotte**
When it does, I'll finish it off.
**[03:17] Liselotte**
Wait!
**[03:18] Miliera**
Yua, it's dangerous there!
**[03:24] Rani**
Above you! Above you!
**[03:26] Leone**
Run away!
**[03:35] Yua**
Chop!
**[03:44] Rani**
Yua's amazing...
**[03:47] Inglis**
*I may have already damaged it with my kick,*
**[03:49] Inglis**
* but she still managed to chop it in half*
* with a wave of her hand.*
**[03:52] Inglis**
*She's as strong as I thought!*
**[03:55] Rani**
Will we not see any more
magicite beasts for a while?
**[03:59] Theodore**
Yes. We learned in the last battle
**[04:03] Theodore**
that Ripple absorbs mana
from Special-class Rune bearers
**[04:07] Theodore**
and uses it to summon magicite beasts.
**[04:10] Inglis**
And summoning that magicite beast
drained the mana she'd built up.
**[04:14] Inglis**
We won't see another one until
her mana builds up again, right?
**[04:19] Theodore**
You understand well.
**[04:22] Leone**
Um, I have another question.
**[04:25] Leone**
Why do all the summoned magicite beasts
appear to be former demihumans?
**[04:30] Rani**
Probably because Ripple
herself is a demihuman.
**[04:34] Miliera**
Demihumans have what you
might call a sixth sense.
**[04:39] Miliera**
It's said they could even use telepathy.
**[04:41] Theodore**
She's using that species-wide
connection to summon them.
**[04:46] Liselotte**
Is that why?
**[04:48] Miliera**
Which is why what they did
could only be done to Ripple.
**[04:53] Theodore**
It's even possible they created a demihuman
Hyral Menas specifically for this purpose.
**[04:58] Rani**
I feel bad for Ripple,
**[05:01] Rani**
having her friends used in such a way.
**[05:04] Theodore**
A lot of Highlanders don't see people
on the surface as their equals,
**[05:08] Theodore**
which leads to this way of thinking.
**[05:10] Theodore**
It's embarrassing.
**[05:12] Ripple**
Now, now, everyone.
**[05:14] Ripple**
It's all in how you think about it!
**[05:16] Ripple**
My comrades have been stuck
as magicite beasts all this time,
**[05:19] Ripple**
so this way, we can finally let them rest.
**[05:22] Ripple**
As long as nobody around us gets hurt.
**[05:25] Rani**
Of course! We'll make sure they don't!
**[05:32] Ripple**
Thanks, everyone.
**[05:34] Rafael**
Excuse me.
**[05:35] Miliera**
Come in!
**[05:39] Rani**
Brother Raf!
**[05:40] Ripple**
Eris!
**[05:42] Eris**
I've been worried about you.
**[05:43] Eris**
Tell me how you're doing later.
**[05:45] Eris**
Right now, we have urgent news.
**[05:47] Miliera**
Is something wrong, you two?
**[05:50] Rafael**
The neighboring country of Venefic
has violated our borders.
**[05:54] Rafael**
Prince Wein is asking for Sir Theodore
to return to the castle immediately.
***SIGN*** Two Weeks Later
**[06:02] Rani**
What a great bath!
**[06:04] Leone**
I'm glad nothing happened
when we were on duty today!
**[06:08] Liselotte**
I think one person here
would disagree with you.
**[06:12] Inglis**
We haven't seen a single
magicite beast since then!
**[06:15] Rani**
That's a good thing!
**[06:17] Inglis**
You're right, but...
**[06:19] Inglis**
Don't you think we need a place where
we can show off the results of our training?
**[06:23] Rani**
I don't think that, no.
**[06:25] Rani**
It's better for Ripple that nothing happens.
**[06:29] Inglis**
I get that, but...
**[06:31] Inglis**
Liselotte, have you heard
what's going on near the border?
**[06:35] Liselotte**
There's a standoff going on right now,
I heard. But nothing beyond that...
**[06:40] Inglis**
So the Prismer's still not
doing anything either, huh?
**[06:46] Leone**
That's the kind of sigh you make
when the one you like won't notice you.
**[06:50] Rani**
Well, Chris does say her
ideal type is a Prismer.
**[06:55] Leone**
It always feels like Chris is a totally
different person on the inside and outside.
**[07:01] Yua**
Yes.
**[07:02] Yua**
Her body is Boobs, but her brain is Muscles.
**[07:05] Rani**
Yua!
**[07:06] Inglis**
*I couldn't even sense her approach.*
**[07:09] Inglis**
*Impressive!*
**[07:11] Inglis**
*Wait...*
**[07:12] Inglis**
*If there aren't any magicite beasts...*
**[07:14] Inglis**
Yua!
**[07:16] Inglis**
The way you chopped that magicite
beast in half was amazing!
**[07:20] Inglis**
I'd love it if you could
show me how it was done!
**[07:23] Inglis**
In a battle, preferably!
**[07:25] Yua**
I refuse.
**[07:26] Inglis**
Why?
**[07:28] Yua**
I don't like physical exercise.
**[07:30] Inglis**
Well, it's hard for me to respond to that...
**[07:32] Inglis**
What can I do to make you tell me?
**[07:37] Inglis**
Yua?
**[07:39] Yua**
There's something I want you
to teach me, too.
**[07:41] Yua**
If you do, I'll fight you,
or do anything else you want.
**[07:44] Inglis**
Really?
**[07:46] Inglis**
What is it?
**[07:47] Inglis**
I'll teach you anything you want to know!
**[07:50] Yua**
How can I get my boobs that big, too?
**[07:54] Inglis**
Um, well... mine kinda just grew this way.
**[07:58] Yua**
That doesn't tell me anything.
**[08:00] Yua**
I want to have huge boobs
so everyone likes me!
**[08:03] Yua**
I want to show off my cleavage
to the entire world, like you do, Boobs!
**[08:06] Inglis**
I don't do that!
**[08:08] Yua**
If you can teach me a way
to make my breasts bigger,
**[08:13] Yua**
I'll fight you as much as you want!
**[08:16] Inglis**
Leone!
**[08:17] Leone**
I-I don't know either!
**[08:20] Leone**
Plus, they're heavy, they make your
shoulders stiff, and people stare!
**[08:23] Leone**
There's nothing good about them.
**[08:24] Rani**
You're lucky you get
to worry about that stuff!
**[08:27] Rani**
You don't know how us flat girls live!
**[08:30] Liselotte**
So Rafinha's taking Yua's side?
**[08:33] Rani**
You don't have to worry,
because you've got proper boobs.
**[08:38] Leone**
And they're not big enough
to strain your shoulders.
**[08:40] Leone**
In a way, they're the best size.
**[08:42] Liselotte**
I don't know about that...
**[08:45] Inglis**
And you don't have to deal with
Lyn playing around in there.
**[08:48] Leone**
I think Liselotte ought to
experience that at least once.
**[08:54] Inglis**
Go, Lyn!
**[08:58] Liselotte**
N-No! It tickles!
**[09:02] Liselotte**
Hey!
**[09:03] Liselotte**
Somebody help me!
**[09:08] Inglis**
Liselotte was really mad...
**[09:10] Rani**
She was intense. I was scared.
**[09:14] Miliera**
Rafinha!
**[09:16] Miliera**
I have something to give to you!
**[09:19] Miliera**
Change into your uniform and come
to the principal's office, would you?
**[09:25] Miliera**
Theodore says this is for you.
**[09:29] Rani**
Is this a new Artifact?
**[09:32] Miliera**
Yes. It has the same base as
your current "Shiny Flow,"
**[09:38] Miliera**
but it's an upgraded version
with a second Gift as well.
**[09:41] Rani**
Wow! Thank you!
**[09:44] Miliera**
I'm surprised Theodore has any time to make
Artifacts, with how busy he is right now,
**[09:50] Miliera**
but this is a great help!
**[09:52] Rani**
Yes!
**[09:53] Miliera**
Also, the second power that
Artifact has is one of healing.
**[10:01] Rani**
I've never heard of an Artifact
with that kind of power!
**[10:04] Miliera**
It's quite rare and difficult to make.
**[10:09] Miliera**
That's why he wants you to have it, he says.
**[10:13] Rani**
Theodore...
**[10:15] Miliera**
He also asks that you take care
of Ripple for him.
**[10:21] Rani**
Of course!
**[10:22] Rani**
I'll protect Ripple and everyone else!
**[10:26] Rani**
I'll have to start training right now
so that I can use it properly!
**[10:29] Inglis**
Sure you do.
**[10:31] Rani**
Chris, you always make that face
whenever Theodore is involved!
**[10:36] Inglis**
I am not making a face.
**[10:43] Miliera**
That's...
**[10:45] Students**
Hurry and put out the fire!
**[10:47] Students**
The magicite beast has been defeated.
The flames need putting out, now!
**[10:51] Miliera**
What's going on?
**[10:53] Students**
Principal Miliera!
**[10:55] Students**
Ripple summoned more magicite beasts.
**[10:57] Students**
We sealed them in a pocket space
and fought them, but...
**[11:02] Students**
Silva!
**[11:04] Students**
Silva!
**[11:05] Inglis**
Silva?
**[11:10] Rani**
He's horribly wounded...
**[11:14] Silva**
I'm fine.
**[11:15] Silva**
Forget about me, and get Ripple out of here.
**[11:19] Silva**
I can't let her see me like this.
**[11:21] Miliera**
Make sure she's safe!
**[11:23] Student**
Okay!
**[11:25] Miliera**
For someone as strong as you
to be this badly injured...
**[11:30] Miliera**
It must have been a powerful
magicite beast indeed.
**[11:33] Silva**
I'm so sorry... It was my failure.
**[11:36] Student**
No! It's not your fault!
**[11:39] Student**
It's their fault!
**[11:41] Inglis**
"Their fault"?
**[11:44] Rati**
I'm sorry...
**[11:46] Rani**
Rati... Pram?
**[11:48] Inglis**
What happened?
**[11:51] Rani**
He protected me when a magicite
beast was about to kill me...
**[11:55] Rani**
and he was badly hurt.
**[11:57] Pram**
N-No! Rati tried to protect *me*!
**[12:02] Pram**
So it's my fault!
**[12:04] Pram**
I'm so sorry!
**[12:05] Student**
"Sorry" won't cut it!
**[12:07] Student**
Thanks to you, Silva is...
**[12:10] Silva**
Stop.
**[12:11] Silva**
My lack of care when activating the pocket
space caused them to be caught up in it.
**[12:16] Silva**
The mistake was all mine.
**[12:18] Silva**
And as someone with power,
**[12:22] Silva**
it's my job to protect
the powerless Runeless.
**[12:26] Silva**
Were you hurt?
**[12:27] Rati**
No. Not even a scratch.
**[12:30] Silva**
I see.
**[12:32] Silva**
Then...
**[12:34] Miliera**
Silva?
**[12:36] Miliera**
Silva! Silva!
**[12:39] Miliera**
Oh, no! We need to hurry and
get him to the medical room!
**[12:41] Rani**
Wait!
**[12:43] Rani**
I'll try and help.
**[12:46] Miliera**
The healing Gift...
**[12:48] Miliera**
Please, go ahead!
**[12:49] Rani**
Okay!
**[12:50] Inglis**
You'll be okay.
**[12:52] Inglis**
You can do it, Rani.
**[13:05] Miliera**
Does anything feel "wrong"?
**[13:07] Rani**
Yes.
**[13:08] Miliera**
That's good. It means that your power is
flowing to a different Gift than usual.
**[13:13] Miliera**
Please continue.
**[13:15] Miliera**
Focus on what lies just
beyond your fingertips.
**[13:18] Rani**
Okay...
**[13:20] Inglis**
*So this is the healing Gift...*
**[13:23] Inglis**
* The movements of the mana are so complex,*
* I don't think I could easily recreate it...*
**[13:29] Miliera**
Now hold that light up to Silva.
**[13:33] Rani**
Okay!
**[13:42] Rati**
His wounds...
**[13:44] Pram**
They're healing!
**[13:48] Inglis**
* So the healing Gift places*
* a heavy strain on its user?*
**[13:52] Inglis**
*Then...*
**[13:56] Inglis**
Rani. I'll help you.
**[13:58] Inglis**
*I can't copy the mana the Gift uses.*
**[14:01] Inglis**
* But if I just create mana with*
* a wavelength similar to Rani's...*
**[14:04] Rani**
Chris?
**[14:05] Inglis**
Think you can do it?
**[14:07] Rani**
Yeah! I can do a lot more now!
**[14:23] Miliera**
He's okay now, isn't he?
**[14:25] Miliera**
Thank you both.
**[14:28] Miliera**
Now, get him to the medical room.
**[14:30] Students**
Okay!
**[14:32] Students**
Thank you for saving Silva.
**[14:35] Rani**
No... Anyone would have done the same.
**[14:41] Rani**
Thanks, Chris! You were a huge help!
**[15:01] Rati**
Are the two of you okay?
**[15:04] Rani/Inglis**
We're fine...
**[15:05] Pram**
Really?
**[15:07] Pram**
That's...
**[15:09] Pram**
The super-spicy meal!
**[15:11] Rani/Inglis**
It's so spicy!
**[15:14] Inglis**
But it's good!
**[15:16] Rani**
It sure wakes you up, huh?
**[15:18] Rati**
Super-spicy food reminds me of home, though.
**[15:22] Inglis**
Where did you say you were from?
**[15:25] Rati**
Alucard, in the north.
**[15:28] Rati**
It's cold up there, so you eat
spicy food to warm yourself up.
**[15:32] Pram**
So we're used to eating really spicy food.
**[15:35] Pram**
It reminds us of home!
**[15:39] Inglis**
You want some too, then?
**[15:41] Pram**
I'd love some, but... there's so much...
**[15:44] Rani**
I'll give you some of mine.
**[15:47] Pram**
Th-Thanks...
**[15:50] Rati**
Give me some too, Inglis!
**[15:52] Inglis**
Sure thing!
**[15:53] Pram**
No!
**[15:55] Rati**
Why?
**[15:56] Pram**
No indirect kisses!
**[15:58] Rati**
Sure, sure. Got it.
**[16:02] Inglis**
You're just doing what Pram
tells you today, huh?
**[16:05] Rati**
Well, I did kinda screw up yesterday.
**[16:09] Rati**
I owe you guys a big thank-you, too.
**[16:11] Pram**
No, it's not your fault!
**[16:14] Pram**
You just tried to help me...
**[16:17] Rati**
But I had to be saved
by somebody else instead!
**[16:21] Rati**
I need to apologize to Silva.
**[16:24] Inglis**
I don't think he was mad, though.
**[16:29] Rani**
Yeah. He was sticking up for you.
**[16:31] Inglis**
He was kind of a jerk when we first met,
so I thought he just hated squires.
**[16:38] Rani**
Oh, I get it!
**[16:40] Rani**
He must be one of those guys
who likes young boys!
**[16:44] Rani**
That's why he was so kind to Rati!
**[16:46] Rani**
Well?
**[16:47] Rati**
That can't be right!
**[16:50] Pram**
Yeah, I really can't handle any more rivals!
**[16:53] Inglis**
So why was he so harsh on me?
**[16:57] Rani**
Cause you're a girl, Chris! Obviously!
**[17:02] Rani**
He just likes young boys...
**[17:05] Silva**
I'd prefer you didn't jump to
conclusions about people like that.
**[17:08] Rani**
Silva?
**[17:10] Inglis**
Are you feeling better?
**[17:12] Silva**
Yes. The scars are almost all gone, too.
**[17:15] Silva**
That Gift of yours is incredible.
**[17:16] Rati**
Um, I'm so sorry about yesterday.
**[17:20] Pram**
We're really sorry.
**[17:23] Silva**
Don't worry about it. It was
my mistake to begin with.
**[17:27] Silva**
And in the end, you were
the ones who saved me.
**[17:32] Silva**
Let me apologize for my rudeness
and thank you properly.
**[17:35] Silva**
Thank you.
**[17:39] Rani**
Not at all... I'm sorry we were such brats!
**[17:43] Inglis**
I'm sorry!
**[17:45] Rani**
Now we've all apologized,
so we're even, right?
**[17:55] Silva**
Yes.
**[17:56] Silva**
Let's say that we are.
**[18:02] Inglis**
Okay, your turn's over, Rani.
**[18:04] Inglis**
My turn now.
**[18:09] Rani**
We ate a whole lot!
**[18:10] Rani**
Let's do our best to defend
Ripple this afternoon!
**[18:12] Inglis**
Sure, but since Silva and his group
defeated the magicite beast,
**[18:16] Inglis**
we won't see another for a while.
**[18:21] Rani**
Chris...
**[18:23] Miliera**
They can't do this!
**[18:27] Miliera**
Come in!
**[18:29] Inglis**
Excuse us.
**[18:31] Inglis**
It's time for our shift to begin.
**[18:34] Miliera**
Thanks for coming.
**[18:37] Inglis**
Um. It sounds like something
had upset you...
**[18:40] Miliera**
Oh, I'm sorry. I couldn't help myself.
**[18:44] Miliera**
Actually, the Royal Guard sent a demand to us
**[18:46] Miliera**
that we turn Ripple over
to them for protection.
**[18:51] Inglis**
Why now, after everything?
**[18:53] Miliera**
They say they're sending Ripple back to the
Highland and getting a new Hyral Menas.
**[19:01] Rani**
But... You can't replace her just
because she's a little sick...
**[19:07] Rani**
That's treating her like
an object, not a person!
**[19:10] Miliera**
We will continue to keep
her safe at the academy.
**[19:15] Rani**
Right?
**[19:16] Ripple**
But, Miliera, if you get into
a fight with the Royal Guard,
**[19:21] Ripple**
won't that cause problems for everyone?
**[19:23] Miliera**
Not in the least.
**[19:25] Miliera**
Protecting you is what we all want to do.
**[19:30] Rani**
She's right!
**[19:32] Rani**
Leave it to us!
**[19:36] Ripple**
Guys...
**[19:42] Leone**
Prism Flow? Now of all times?
**[19:45] Liselotte**
The magicite beasts don't care
what we've got going on in our lives.
**[19:50] Leone**
What's the principal
going to do about Ripple?
**[19:55] Liselotte**
She's sending a formal message to
Prince Wein, as a means of buying time.
**[20:00] Leone**
That's why Rati and Pram
ran off in the Flying Gears.
**[20:06] Liselotte**
The prince is away right now.
**[20:09] Liselotte**
It's bad timing.
**[20:11] Leone**
They were excited to make up
for their failure before, though.
**[20:17] Leone**
What's wrong?
**[20:19] Liselotte**
Bad timing...
**[20:22] Leone**
Oh, well, there's nothing
we can do about the rain.
**[20:26] Liselotte**
No, I mean the way the Royal Guard is
doing this when Prince Wein isn't around.
**[20:32] Liselotte**
If somebody is pulling strings
behind the scenes...
**[20:40] Liselotte**
Leone!
**[20:41] Leone**
On it!
**[20:51] Leone**
A lightning beast...
**[20:55] Leone**
That's the power of my brother's Artifact!
**[21:31] Leone**
Brother Leon!
**[21:33] Leon**
Hey. It's been a long time, Leone.
**[21:37] Liselotte**
Wait!
**[21:41] Liselotte**
Somebody else is here.
**[21:53] Liselotte**
Who's there?!
**[22:02] Leone**
It can't be...
**[22:07] Leone**
The Bloodchain Brigade!

The royal court has decided to offer up
Almen to the Hierarch Highlanders
**[02:38] Black Mask**
to restore relations with them.
**[02:43] Liselotte**
But why would they do that?
**[02:45] Leon**
It's outlived its purpose as a place from
which to monitor the frozen Prismer.
**[02:50] Leon**
I suppose they feel they have
nothing to lose by offering it up.
**[02:53] Leone**
That's not right, though!
**[02:55] Liselotte**
Where's the justice in that?
**[02:59] Sistia**
If you must rage against someone,
direct your ire toward your foolish king
**[03:03] Sistia**
who'd hand over his own people
to curry favor with Highlanders.
**[03:07] Black Mask**
The Hyral Menas will be
handed over in four days.
**[03:10] Black Mask**
The Highlander emissary will come by boat.
**[03:14] Black Mask**
We'll attack and kill the
emissary when they arrive.
**[03:17] Black Mask**
Our only enemies are the Highlanders, who
are trying to steal the very land from us.
**[03:21] Liselotte**
You're telling us your plan?
**[03:24] Liselotte**
What are you plotting?
**[03:27] Black Mask**
If you'd like to try something of your own,
**[03:29] Black Mask**
feel free to take advantage
of the chaos we'll cause.
**[03:33] Black Mask**
But don't get in our way.
**[03:36] Leone**
And you think we'll just believe you?
**[03:38] Black Mask**
That's up to you.
**[03:41] Black Mask**
Now, goodbye.
**[03:42] Leone**
Brother!
**[03:46] Leone**
But I... No matter what your reason is...
**[03:50] Leon**
Do what you think is best.
**[03:52] Leon**
Nobody will stop you.
**[03:56] Leon**
But... You've grown.
**[03:58] Leon**
I can't do a thing for you,
**[04:01] Leon**
but that makes me happy.
**[04:03] Leon**
Keep it up.
**[04:10] Liselotte**
Leone...
**[04:11] Leone**
We need to head back and tell everyone.
**[04:16] Miliera**
So you're saying that if we don't stop them,
the Highland will take Ripple?
**[04:22] Rani**
And the town of Almen, to boot!
**[04:25] Rani**
That's just not right!
**[04:28] Silva**
Yes. We have to do something.
**[04:31] Leone**
But what?
**[04:33] Inglis**
I have a plan.
**[04:37] Miliera**
I see.
**[04:39] Miliera**
That would work!
**[04:41] Silva**
But it's too reckless!
**[04:43] Rani**
Every time Chris says something,
it's either reckless or insane.
**[04:47] Leone**
Yeah...
**[04:49] Liselotte**
Agreed.
**[04:52] Ripple**
In a sense, they trust you, Inglis.
**[04:57] Miliera**
We'll go with Inglis's idea, then.
**[05:00] Miliera**
I'll get things started on my end first!
***SIGN*** Four Days Later
**[05:08] Silva**
Wh-What is this?
**[05:10] Miliera**
What do you mean?
They're maid outfits, of course.
**[05:14] Miliera**
They're going to infiltrate the court
under the guise of part-time servants.
**[05:20] Inglis**
These maid outfits are great, huh?
**[05:21] Rani**
Yup!
**[05:23] Silva**
Principal Miliera,
was there really no better way?
**[05:27] Miliera**
I thought it was a great idea!
**[05:31] Miliera**
One that takes full advantage
of their cuteness!
**[05:35] Rani**
It'll be okay, Silva!
**[05:37] Inglis**
When the Bloodchain Brigade
comes to attack, we'll defeat them!
**[05:42] Silva**
While protecting the king
and the Highlander emissary.
**[05:45] Silva**
Don't forget that.
**[05:47] Rani/Inglis**
Okay!
**[05:49] Silva**
Good grief...
**[05:51] Inglis**
When are they handing over Ripple?
**[05:54] Miliera**
Right after the ceremony at the court.
**[05:58] Silva**
We wanted a little more time,
but the royal guards weren't having it.
**[06:03] Miliera**
But at the start they were saying,
"Hand her over immediately!"
**[06:08] Miliera**
This is a major victory!
**[06:09] Miliera**
All thanks to Silva.
**[06:12] Silva**
I have a brother in the Royal Guard.
**[06:14] Silva**
I wasn't sure about going to him for help,
but it didn't feel like we had a choice.
**[06:18] Miliera**
While the royal guards are
busy protecting the court,
**[06:22] Miliera**
Silva and I will feed Ripple our mana,
making her summon magicite beasts
**[06:26] Miliera**
until there aren't any more left to summon.
**[06:28] Rani**
Then there'll be no reason
to take her back to the Highland.
**[06:34] Inglis**
It's a little crazy, but it'll work!
**[06:36] Silva**
It's not a little crazy. It's insane.
**[06:38] Silva**
But we don't have a choice.
**[06:41] Silva**
I'll be counting on you two.
For Ripple's sake, too.
**[06:46] Silva**
Wh-What?
**[06:48] Rani**
Silva, do you like Ripple?
**[06:53] Silva**
Don't be ridiculous!
**[06:55] Miliera**
Oh, my...
**[06:57] Rani**
You don't have to hide it!
**[07:00] Silva**
I do not! It would be most improper
to think of a Hyral Menas that way.
**[07:04] Silva**
I do respect her deeply...
**[07:07] Inglis**
Respect?
**[07:09] Silva**
When I was young, she saved my life.
**[07:13] Silva**
There was a sudden rain
of Prism Flow one day.
**[07:17] Silva**
A friend and I were attacked
by a magicite beast.
**[07:20] Silva**
We both ran... and he died protecting me.
**[07:25] Silva**
I was weak, and so he,
a Runeless, had to die.
**[07:31] Silva**
Just as I thought it was all over,
Ripple saved me.
**[07:41] Silva**
She held me as I cried, and she said...
**[07:44] (Flashback) Ripple**
Get stronger.
**[07:46] (Flashback) Ripple**
For the sake of your friend
who protected you.
**[07:48] (Flashback) Ripple**
And so you can protect dozens—
no, hundreds of times as many people more.
**[07:55] Silva**
Those words are what made me who I am today.
**[07:58] Silva**
I trained hard every day, so that I
could be someone who protects others.
**[08:04] Inglis**
*So he didn't hate the Runeless after all.*
**[08:07] Inglis**
* He wanted to keep them from danger, and he*
* was willing to sacrifice his own life for it.*
**[08:13] Rani**
I'm sorry for making you
remember something like that.
**[08:18] Silva**
It was a long time ago.
Don't worry about it.
**[08:20] Inglis**
Is the reason you use a gun Artifact...
**[08:24] Silva**
Yes. I thought it would make it
easier to fight alongside Ripple.
**[08:30] Rani**
That's wonderful...
**[08:32] Rani**
I'm sure Ripple will be very happy.
**[08:35] Miliera**
Ripple remembered Silva.
**[08:40] Silva**
She looked upset... I don't know why.
**[08:44] Silva**
No, it's probably because I'm not
strong enough for her to rely on me.
**[08:49] Rani**
That's not...
**[08:50] Silva**
Either way, we need to carry out the plan.
**[08:54] Silva**
I don't want Ripple to be taken
from our country yet.
**[08:57] Rani**
Yes. And that's why we need
to do our best tomorrow!
**[09:00] Inglis**
Leave it to us, Silva!
**[09:03] Silva**
Right. I'll do my best on my end, too.
**[09:06] Inglis**
No, I'd like to meet up with you guys
and join the fight, so take your time.
**[09:14] Silva**
Just how obsessed
are you with fighting?
**[09:21] Chef**
New girls! Come help over here!
**[09:24] Rani/Inglis**
Okay!
**[09:26] Rani**
It looks great!
**[09:28] Inglis**
The food at the court's
really something else.
**[09:31] Inglis**
Rani, you ate too much.
There's no shrimp left.
**[09:34] Rani**
And just how much meat
are *you* going to eat, Chris?
**[09:39] Inglis**
I'm eating a little from everything
so they don't find out!
**[09:43] Rani**
It's a waste, too!
**[09:45] Rani**
When the Bloodchain Brigade comes,
nobody's going to get to eat this food.
**[09:54] Inglis**
Nobody can know about the attack.
**[09:57] Inglis**
We don't want to talk about it and have
them think we're co-conspirators.
**[10:01] Rani**
You say that, but you're
just trying to make sure
**[10:04] Rani**
you've got as many enemies
to fight as possible, right?
**[10:07] Inglis**
That's right.
**[10:08] Rani**
Chris...
**[10:11] Rani**
Well, whatever. Until that
time comes, we have to work!
**[10:16] Nobles**
Oh, the king has arrived!
**[10:20] Nobles**
King Carius!
**[10:21] Nobles**
Hail to the king!
**[10:24] Nobles**
Your Majesty! Your Majesty, King Carius!
**[10:28] Inglis**
The king's got a Special-class rune, huh?
**[10:32] Rani**
He must be strong.
It'll be easy to protect him.
**[10:35] Inglis**
We don't know that for sure.
**[10:38] Inglis**
* If you're doing your job as king,*
* you won't have any time left to practice.*
**[10:43] Inglis**
*I know that firsthand.*
**[10:45] Carius**
Today, I'm pleased to welcome
an emissary from the Highland.
**[10:50] Carius**
They've promised to send a new Hyral Menas,
**[10:54] Carius**
who will lead our kingdom
to even greater glory.
**[10:58] Rani**
What about Almen?
**[11:00] Rani**
Maybe they don't have to
hand it over anymore.
**[11:03] Inglis**
That's not it. At times like these,
you just say the good things, not the bad.
**[11:09] Rani**
That's kind of sneaky!
**[11:11] Carius**
Now, let us welcome the emissary.
**[11:15] Carius**
Everyone, be on your best behavior.
**[11:17] All**
Yes, sire.
***SIGN*** Highlander Arch Lord
(Great General) Ivel
**[11:22] Rani**
Wow, he's cute!
**[11:25] Rani**
His eyes and hair are such pretty colors.
**[11:28] Inglis**
Yeah.
**[11:29] Carius**
Allow me to introduce you all.
This is the Highlander emissary, Lord Ivel.
**[11:34] Carius**
Despite his young age,
he is already a great general.
**[11:37] Nobles**
Oh, is that true?
**[11:39] Nobles**
Then he must be of a higher rank
than a typical emissary.
**[11:43] Ivel**
Emissaries who get sent to the surface
are just low-level foreign officers.
**[11:48] Ivel**
I bear the rank of Arch Lord
and command the Chief Hierarch's armies.
**[11:51] Rani**
I take it all back. He's not cute at all!
**[11:53] Ivel**
I'm nothing like them.
**[11:54] Inglis**
True.
**[11:55] Nobles**
Wonderful!
**[11:56] Nobles**
It's an honor to see him!
**[11:58] Nobles**
This is a day I'll remember forever!
**[11:59] Rani**
I don't like this.
**[12:01] Rani**
Everybody sucking up
to that mean little kid.
**[12:04] Inglis**
Yeah.
**[12:06] Rani**
Hey, Chris! Pay attention!
**[12:13] Ivel**
This is hilarious!
**[12:15] Ivel**
We get a whole city just for swapping out
one defective Hyral Menas!
**[12:21] Ivel**
You're losing the lives of your fellow men,
you're losing a valuable asset,
**[12:24] Ivel**
and you're still trying to suck up to me!
**[12:27] Ivel**
You're all crazy.
**[12:29] Ivel**
You fools don't realize that
any one of you could be next.
**[12:30] Rani**
I hate to say it, but he's right.
**[12:33] Inglis**
Yup.
**[12:34] Ivel**
Well, for my part,
it's easier to deal with fools.
**[12:40] Ivel**
Thanks. For being so stupid.
**[12:45] Carius**
There's no need to thank us, Lord Ivel.
**[12:48] Carius**
We are fools, as you say.
**[12:51] Carius**
And I, as king, am the
greatest fool of them all.
**[12:54] Carius**
I only hope that you will teach us
to be as smart as you.
**[13:01] Nobles**
Please teach us...
**[13:04] Rani**
I don't want to see this. It's pathetic.
**[13:07] Inglis**
Yeah? It's kinda interesting, though.
**[13:11] Inglis**
* Normally, one would respond*
* to such provocations with anger.*
**[13:14] Inglis**
*For him to react this way...*
**[13:15] Inglis**
* Either he's not human, or he has*
* something he truly believes in.*
**[13:20] Ivel**
You're interesting, for a fool.
**[13:26] Nobles**
Magicite beasts!
**[13:29] Rani**
They're here!
**[13:30] Rani**
Let's do it, Chris!
**[13:32] Rani**
Huh?
**[13:47] Nobles**
Who is that girl?
**[13:49] Inglis**
I'm a maid, so it's my job
to clean up the banquet hall!
**[13:53] Inglis**
Rani, you take—
**[13:57] Inglis**
What was that?
**[14:00] Inglis**
*I've never seen that attack before.*
**[14:02] Guards**
Seal the exits! Prepare for
an attack from the windows!
**[14:06] Guards**
Protect the king and the emissary!
**[14:09] Guards**
Yes, sir!
**[14:13] Ivel**
How obnoxious.
**[14:17] Assassin**
Die!
**[14:23] Assassin**
I can't move...
**[14:25] Assassin**
L-Let me go!
**[14:26] Inglis**
No.
**[14:27] Assassin**
The Highlanders must be stopped
before they take all our homes!
**[14:30] Rani**
Is he with the Bloodchain Brigade?
**[14:33] Ivel**
Hey. Nobody asked for your help.
**[14:36] Ivel**
Did you think a weakling like him
could so much as scratch me?
**[14:39] Inglis**
My apologies.
**[14:42] Ivel**
Well, it's fine.
**[14:43] Ivel**
Restrain him.
**[14:46] Inglis**
*The same light as before...*
**[15:06] Rani**
Chris, are you okay?!
**[15:08] Inglis**
Y-Yeah.
**[15:09] Ivel**
Not much scares you, huh?
**[15:12] Inglis**
Thanks.
**[15:13] Rani**
Did you do that deliberately?
That's disgusting!
**[15:16] Ivel**
Yeah? If anything's disgusting,
it's inviting someone to a banquet
**[15:21] Ivel**
and then trying to kill them.
**[15:24] Carius**
N-No! I assure you,
our country was not behind this!
**[15:28] Carius**
It was the Bloodchain Brigade,
**[15:30] Carius**
a group of rebels that have been
active in our lands lately...
**[15:34] Ivel**
I'm willing to believe that,
but that's still a problem.
**[15:38] Knight**
A problem?
**[15:39] Ivel**
Your incompetence put a
Highlander emissary in danger.
**[15:45] Ivel**
How do you intend to atone for that sin?
**[15:49] Carius**
Please, show mercy!
**[15:52] Carius**
I, Carius, am prepared
to accept any punishment!
**[15:56] Knights**
Your Majesty!
**[15:58] Ivel**
No, that's not good enough.
**[16:01] Ivel**
An apology only means something
when it's between two equals.
**[16:07] Ivel**
But the Highland and
the surface aren't equal.
**[16:10] Ivel**
You're just the boss of
a group of cattle we keep.
**[16:13] Ivel**
And an apology from cattle
means nothing.
**[16:17] Ivel**
So...
**[16:25] Ivel**
I'm taking an arm.
**[16:29] Knights**
Y-Your Majesty!
**[16:31] Knights**
Damn you!
**[16:32] Knights**
Even if you're the Highland emissary...
**[16:34] Carius**
Calm yourselves, everyone!
**[16:37] Carius**
Anyone who harms the emissary will
be executed in the name of the king!
**[16:42] Knights**
Y-Yes, sire...
**[16:44] Carius**
Thank you for your mercy, Lord Ivel.
**[16:49] Knights**
Your Majesty...
**[16:50] Rani**
Chris, is this really okay?
**[16:54] Rani**
Is this really right?
**[16:56] Rani**
It's not...
**[16:57] Inglis**
That's up to the individual, isn't it?
**[16:59] Inglis**
What you think is right, is right.
**[17:02] Inglis**
*Everyone really does have their own ideas.*
**[17:04] Inglis**
* Some pledge loyalty to the Highlanders,*
* to keep their people alive.*
**[17:09] Inglis**
* Others try to become stronger,*
* to become equals to the Highlanders.*
**[17:13] Inglis**
*What will come of the contrast between them?*
**[17:16] Inglis**
* Well, that's for the people*
* of this era to decide.*
**[17:20] Inglis**
Anyway, Rani, we have something
we have to hurry and do.
**[17:28] Inglis**
Excuse me.
**[17:32] Inglis**
We'll try to heal your wound.
**[17:34] Inglis**
Rani.
**[17:36] Rani**
I'll give it a shot.
**[17:44] Knights**
It's healing!
**[17:46] Inglis**
* This is more difficult*
* than what she did for Silva...*
**[17:51] Inglis**
*Rani works hard.*
**[17:54] Ivel**
Hey, what are you doing?
**[17:57] Inglis**
We are healing him.
**[17:58] Inglis**
May we continue?
**[18:00] Ivel**
I don't mind.
**[18:02] Inglis**
Thank you.
**[18:04] Ivel**
But I'm going to take someone
else's arm instead.
**[18:10] Ivel**
Now, who's going to offer up
their arm to make me happy?
**[18:17] Carius**
If my healing comes at
such a cost, I cannot...
**[18:19] Inglis**
Try and take my arm, then!
**[18:23] Inglis**
* It'll give me a chance to see*
* that power up close.*
**[18:27] Ivel**
Sure.
**[18:28] Ivel**
Normally, I wouldn't care
about the arm of a Runeless,
**[18:32] Ivel**
but I can't wait to see that smile
on your face turn to a scream.
**[18:35] Rani**
C-Chris!
**[18:37] Inglis**
It's fine, Rani.
**[18:39] Inglis**
Just keep healing His Majesty.
**[18:41] Ivel**
I look forward to hearing
how you'll shriek in pain.
**[18:46] Inglis**
Yeah, it's not just mana moving.
**[18:49] Inglis**
It's a bunch of different
wavelengths mixed together.
**[18:51] Ivel**
You don't know anything!
**[18:53] Ivel**
Now, here I go!
**[18:55] Ivel**
I won't stop, no matter how much you cry!
**[19:00] Ivel**
What?
**[19:02] Knights**
H-Hey, that was the same
thing he did before, right?
**[19:03] Inglis**
* I'd turned down its power*
* so he couldn't sense it,*
**[19:05] Knights**
Y-Yeah, but...
**[19:06] Inglis**
* but I definitely activated*
* an Aether Shell just now!*
**[19:09] Inglis**
*And his power exceeded even that...*
**[19:12] Inglis**
* I like this maid outfit,*
* so I'm sorry to see it damaged,*
**[19:15] Inglis**
*but that was a most impressive display!*
**[19:17] Inglis**
Amazing! That was amazing!
**[19:20] Ivel**
D-Damn you!
**[19:27] Knights**
Maybe it's not that powerful after all?
**[19:31] Knights**
But it definitely killed the
assassin and took the king's arm!
**[19:35] Inglis**
I see! It's not just mana.
**[19:38] Inglis**
It's similar, but using
something more powerful!
**[19:42] Ivel**
It's Mana Refinement!
**[19:44] Ivel**
It increases the purity
and efficiency of mana!
**[19:47] Ivel**
You surface dwellers shouldn't
be able to defend against it!
**[19:50] Ivel**
But you...
**[19:51] Inglis**
Quality over quantity, right?
**[19:54] Inglis**
If it evolves along that path,
it might catch up to aether someday!
**[19:58] Inglis**
Wonderful!
**[20:00] Ivel**
I can't understand your power at all...
**[20:03] Ivel**
What is that power? Who are you?
**[20:07] Ivel**
Who the hell are you?!
**[20:12] Inglis**
Just a maid. Why?
**[20:14] Ivel**
Damn you...
**[20:16] Ivel**
Don't you *dare* mock me!
**[20:21] Ivel**
Why? It's not working at all!
**[20:24] Inglis**
Even if you're a child,
**[20:26] Inglis**
I don't think it's a good idea to keep
touching a girl's breasts like that.
**[20:30] Inglis**
Oh, sorry.
**[20:33] Inglis**
Now, continue!
**[20:35] Inglis**
Please, cut off my arm!
**[20:38] Ivel**
Inglis, was it?
**[20:41] Ivel**
You're no maid!
**[20:43] Ivel**
Tell me your true identity!
What are you planning?!
**[20:47] Inglis**
My true identity?
**[20:49] Inglis**
Actually...
**[20:50] Inglis**
I'm a part-time maid! I wanted money
to buy lots of yummy food.
**[20:55] Ivel**
So you're not going to answer me?
**[20:58] Ivel**
Then...
**[20:59] Ivel**
At least show me your power!
**[21:02] Ivel**
Come on! Attack me!
**[21:04] Inglis**
But weren't you the one who wanted
my arm instead of the king's?
**[21:09] Ivel**
Forget that!
**[21:11] Ivel**
Come on! Attack me!
**[21:12] Inglis**
Personally, I'd love nothing more
than to duel you, but...
**[21:17] Carius**
Stand down.
**[21:19] Carius**
Even if it's what he wants,
you must not harm a Highlander!
**[21:25] Carius**
You must...
**[21:29] Ivel**
You really are a dumb animal.
**[21:31] Ivel**
There's no point in trying to suck up to me.
**[21:35] Ivel**
The reason that I, an Arch Lord,
**[21:37] Ivel**
came all the way to the surface
was not to bring you a Hyral Menas
**[21:41] Ivel**
or repair relationships between our nations!
**[21:44] Ivel**
The Chief Hierarch is angry!
**[21:46] Ivel**
One day, this whole country
will be wiped from the map.
**[21:50] King**
Then why did you come here?
**[21:53] Ivel**
Because...

**[00:06] Soldiers**
Enemies?
**[00:07] Soldiers**
What nation's battleship is that?
**[00:09] Inglis**
It probably belongs to
the Bloodchain Brigade.
**[00:12] Carius**
What? The Bloodchain Brigade?
**[00:18] Ivel**
So the rats scurried right into the trap?
**[00:21] Inglis**
Rats?
**[00:22] Ivel**
The Bloodchain Brigade are the most
extreme of the anti-Highlander factions.
**[00:26] Ivel**
They've been getting out of hand,
and it's become a problem.
**[00:31] Ivel**
So I set a trap.
**[00:33] Carius**
You knew about the Bloodchain Brigade?
**[00:36] Ivel**
Obviously.
**[00:38] Inglis**
A trap, you say?
**[00:40] Ivel**
Nothing complicated.
**[00:41] Ivel**
We just set up a fake ceremony.
**[00:44] Ivel**
Then I, an Arch Lord, attended.
**[00:49] Rani**
A fake ceremony?
**[00:51] Inglis**
Then the new Hyral Menas...?
**[00:55] Ivel**
That was a lie, of course.
**[00:57] Ivel**
Our goal was to lure the rats out
into the open and exterminate them.
**[01:02] Carius**
So we were just pawns, then?
**[01:05] Knight**
Then why did His Majesty
have to face such humiliation?
**[01:10] Inglis**
None of you have meaning!
None of you have value!
**[01:13] Inglis**
You're all worthless, helpless trash that
can't do anything but crawl on the ground!
**[01:17] Rani**
That's so cruel!
**[01:20] Inglis**
Wonderful!
**[01:23] Inglis**
So what you're saying
is that you're a bad guy
**[01:28] Inglis**
who not only lied to our king,
but also cut off his arm.
**[01:32] Inglis**
I've got that right, don't I?
**[01:34] Ivel**
Yup. I commend you for your excellent
understanding of the situation.
**[01:38] Inglis**
Your Majesty, order me to strike
this criminal down, and I will.
**[01:44] Carius**
You must not kill him.
**[01:46] Carius**
Capture him alive.
**[01:48] Inglis**
As you wish.
**[01:49] Inglis**
You heard the man.
**[01:51] Inglis**
So the situation has changed.
I'll be taking you up on that duel.
**[01:55] Ivel**
Sure, but I've got other
people to fight today.
**[01:59] Ivel**
Let's make it quick.
**[02:00] Ivel**
Give me all you've got!
**[02:02] Inglis**
Thank you!
**[02:06] Ivel**
*Is that pale light... magic?*
**[02:09] Ivel**
*No, it's nothing I've ever sensed before.*
**[02:12] Ivel**
* This woman's a threat*
* like none I've ever seen...*
**[02:16] Ivel**
*So I'll...*
**[02:18] Ivel**
* Come on. The second you touch this wall,*
* you'll lose an arm or a leg,*
**[02:24] Ivel**
*just like that knight and your king did!*
**[02:28] Ivel**
What's wrong?
**[02:30] Ivel**
Come and get me.
**[02:32] Inglis**
That magic, it's an "annihilation" effect
that destroys whatever touches it, right?
**[02:38] Ivel**
*How did she know?*
**[02:40] Ivel**
*Can she see this wall?*
**[02:43] Inglis**
It looks like surrounding your whole body
with it weakened the effects.
**[02:49] Inglis**
It'd be stronger if you concentrated
your power in one spot.
**[02:54] Inglis**
Go ahead and do that, please.
**[02:57] Inglis**
I'll attack that point.
**[03:02] Ivel**
Are you stupid?
**[03:04] Ivel**
If I do that, and you just attack
a different spot, I'm finished!
**[03:09] Inglis**
If I wanted to do that,
I'd already have attacked you.
**[03:13] Inglis**
You can't believe me?
**[03:16] Inglis**
For a Highlander Arch Lord,
you're kind of a coward.
**[03:26] Inglis**
Nice!
**[03:27] Rani**
Chris!
**[03:29] Ivel**
Come on! I'll just pray you're not a liar!
**[03:33] Inglis**
Of course! Here I go!
**[03:37] Inglis**
* If I use an aether-imbued attack*
* to destroy the magic structure itself...*
**[03:52] Inglis**
Oops!
**[03:54] Inglis**
Where do you think he fell?
**[03:56] Rani**
Well, that's Chris for you...

**[05:40] King**
We have no choice now but to
destroy the Bloodchain Brigade!
**[05:47] King**
We may be able to use that to restore
relations with the Highland.
**[05:51] King**
Go!
**[05:52] Knights**
Yes, Your Majesty!
**[05:53] Knight**
Sire, please evacuate.
**[05:56] Knight**
Everyone but His Majesty's guards,
go on the attack!
**[05:58] Knights**
Yes, sir!
**[06:00] Inglis**
We'll go engage the Bloodchain Brigade, then.
**[06:03] Rani**
"We"?
**[06:05] Rani**
Chris, I'm a little tired after
healing His Majesty's arm...
**[06:10] Inglis**
If you want to rest, you can rest near me.
**[06:13] Rani**
Wherever you are is bound to be
where the fighting's fiercest!
**[06:18] Inglis**
It's fine! Come on, come on!
**[06:21] Rani**
Fine! Fine! Well...
**[06:24] Rani**
I'll be back later!
**[06:28] Carius**
She seems like someone I can count on.
**[06:34] Inglis**
Over there!
**[06:36] Rani**
A Flying Gear!
**[06:37] Inglis**
No time for that!
**[06:40] Inglis**
Sorry to bother you!
**[06:42] Knights**
Wh-What the heck?!
**[06:44] Knights**
What *is* that?
**[06:46] Knights**
A maid! It's an airborne maid!
**[06:49] Knights**
She's fast!
**[06:53] Inglis**
There we go.
**[06:54] Inglis**
Look, Rani. We're almost at the
Bloodchain Brigade's battleship.
**[06:58] Rani**
I knew it'd be the front line...
**[07:03] Rani**
We need to stop them now,
before they hurt more innocents.
**[07:08] Rani**
Here we go, Chris!
**[07:10] Inglis**
Oh, you're all ready to fight now, huh, Rani?
**[07:13] Rani**
After seeing that, yeah.
**[07:15] Rani**
I'll interrupt their attack.
**[07:17] Inglis**
What are you going to do?
**[07:19] Rani**
Go!
**[07:20] Rani**
Burst!
**[07:22] Rani**
Circle the ship!
**[07:24] Inglis**
I see. You're blinding them.
**[07:27] Rani**
I'll stop their attacks. You stop the ship!
**[07:32] Inglis**
Okay, got it!
**[07:48] Inglis**
Aether Strike!
**[07:58] Inglis**
They deflected it?!
**[08:06] Inglis**
*I knew it...*
**[08:09] Inglis**
*Leon and Sistia don't seem to be there.*
**[08:11] Brigade**
That little girl did that?
**[08:13] Brigade**
How can a maid be that powerful?
**[08:16] Inglis**
Welcome.
**[08:17] Inglis**
I'll be serving you this evening.
**[08:21] Inglis**
That was just my way of welcoming you.
**[08:23] Brigade**
S-Serving us?
**[08:26] Black Mask**
Be careful.
**[08:27] Black Mask**
The more beautiful the rose, the sharper
its thorns and deadlier its poison.
**[08:32] Black Mask**
Continue the mission. I'll deal with her.
**[08:42] Black Mask**
What about your plan
to save the Hyral Menas?
**[08:47] Inglis**
The principal and my friends
from the academy are handling it.
**[08:52] Inglis**
And if we don't do anything,
they might think we're with you.
**[08:58] Inglis**
So the two of us came to protect
the king and the Highlander emissary.
**[09:03] Black Mask**
Doesn't splitting your forces make it
more likely that you'll fail on both fronts?
**[09:10] Inglis**
If I take care of things here
and get over there before they finish,
**[09:14] Inglis**
I get to have twice the fun!
**[09:16] Black Mask**
How bold.
**[09:17] Black Mask**
While you're being bold, why don't you
tell me where the Highlander emissary is?
**[09:23] Inglis**
Oh, sorry...
**[09:28] Inglis**
I actually don't know.
**[09:30] Black Mask**
That's a shame.
**[09:33] Black Mask**
It appears you've grown stronger than before.
**[09:36] Inglis**
I didn't have a way
of determining that for myself.
**[09:39] Inglis**
But you seem like the perfect opportunity!
**[09:42] Black Mask**
So you're using me as a way
to test yourself?
**[09:45] Inglis**
Thanks in advance!
**[09:48] Black Mask**
I guess I have no choice, then.
**[09:58] Silva**
It seems something did happen at the castle!
**[10:03] Silva**
All the troops that were escorting Ripple
headed back to the castle.
**[10:08] Silva**
Now is our chance.
**[10:09] Miliera**
Okay.
**[10:10] Miliera**
Everyone, I'll say this again: you're under no
obligation to participate in this operation.
**[10:16] Miliera**
Please don't feel like you have to.
**[10:19] Leone**
Who's going to go home
after being told *that*?
**[10:21] Liselotte**
Nobody here is going home.
**[10:24] Yua**
Actually, in that case,
I'm gonna go home and sleep.
**[10:28] Miliera**
Wait! Wait, Yua!
**[10:32] Miliera**
We need you here!
**[10:34] Yua**
You just said I didn't have to do it.
**[10:37] Silva**
We need your help.
Please lend us your aid.
**[10:41] Yua**
Mr. Glasses, do you have a fever?
**[10:43] Silva**
No!
**[10:44] Silva**
I'm just fine!
**[10:45] Yua**
Oh, you're right. You get mad so fast.
**[10:48] Silva**
Depending on who I'm talking to!
**[10:51] Miliera**
This isn't the time!
We're about to start the mission!
**[10:54] Ripple**
I'm asking you to stay, too.
**[10:57] Ripple**
I could really use you on my side.
**[11:00] Silva**
Ripple...
**[11:02] Ripple**
I thought I had no choice but to accept
what was happening to me.
**[11:08] Ripple**
A Hyral Menas who can't protect anyone...
is no Hyral Menas at all.
**[11:13] Ripple**
But you're all doing your absolute best
to protect me, right?
**[11:20] Ripple**
Well, one of you seems
to just be having fun.
**[11:23] Miliera**
True. I won't say who, though.
**[11:27] Leone**
She's probably sneezing right now.
**[11:29] Liselotte**
I'm sure she is.
**[11:40] Ripple**
The home where I was born
was destroyed years and years ago.
**[11:45] Ripple**
But now this country is my home.
I can really feel that now.
**[11:50] Ripple**
I understand how I really feel...
**[11:53] Ripple**
I know I'm causing trouble for you all,
**[11:55] Ripple**
but I want to stay here with
the people of this country.
**[11:58] Ripple**
So... it's only natural that
I'd ask for help, right?
**[12:03] Silva**
Ripple...
**[12:05] Ripple**
So, Yua...
**[12:07] Silva**
Yua, Ripple is begging for your help—
**[12:10] Yua**
Zzz...
**[12:11] Silva**
Hey!
**[12:14] Yua**
He's interrupting my sleep!
**[12:15] Yua**
Save me, Lady Animal Ears!
**[12:17] Ripple**
Anyway, I want your help.
**[12:21] Ripple**
If it works out, I'll buy you dinner, okay?
**[12:24] Yua**
I don't want food. I want you to
introduce me to somebody.
**[12:31] Ripple**
What kind of person?
**[12:33] Yua**
Somebody as cool as Mr. Glasses.
**[12:36] Silva**
Wh-What? It's too late for you to try
and get on my good side—
**[12:39] Yua**
Somebody who's not as short-tempered
or weak as Mr. Glasses...
**[12:45] Silva**
Why, you...
**[12:47] Miliera**
Okay, now that we've made it to the
punchline, I'd like to start the mission!
**[12:52] Silva**
The *punchline*? Ma'am...
**[12:55] Miliera**
Go ahead, Leone.
**[12:57] Leone**
Okay!
**[13:06] Silva**
Principal Miliera and I will have Ripple
absorb our power and summon magicite beasts.
**[13:12] Miliera**
You take them out when they show up!
**[13:22] Ripple**
It's in your hands, everyone.
**[13:33] Silva**
Spread out in a circle around Ripple!
**[13:52] Silva**
Here they come!
**[14:04] Inglis**
*Such incredible power!*
**[14:07] Inglis**
* I can see why you're the leader*
* of the Bloodchain Brigade!*
**[14:13] Rani**
Chris, I believe in you!
**[14:25] Black Mask**
Sorry. I'm not done yet.
**[14:29] Inglis**
That's more than fine by me!
**[14:32] Inglis**
* I can sense one more aether flow,*
* besides his Aether Shell.*
**[14:40] Inglis**
An aether sword?
**[14:42] Black Mask**
I'm amazed you dodged that. Impressive.
**[14:46] Inglis**
That sword's made of compressed
and stabilized aether, isn't it?
**[14:52] Inglis**
*I can use magic to create a sword too, but...*
**[14:57] Inglis**
* Wielding a compressed aether sword and*
* aether armor simultaneously is no mean feat.*
**[15:04] Inglis**
*I can't do that myself yet.*
**[15:07] Black Mask**
It is as you say.
**[15:08] Black Mask**
Sorry, but you're mine!
**[15:16] Inglis**
*At this distance, he has the advantage.*
**[15:18] Inglis**
*I need to get closer!*
**[15:20] Inglis**
*But that sword...*
**[15:22] Inglis**
* If I take a hit from that, even with my*
* Aether Shell, I won't be getting off lightly.*
**[15:29] Inglis**
*Which means...*
**[15:30] Inglis**
*I've got one chance!*
**[15:34] Black Mask**
That weak blade can't stop me!
**[15:37] Inglis**
It doesn't need to!
**[15:40] Inglis**
* If it can halt him for even*
* a second, I can get close!*
**[15:49] Inglis**
Aether Strike!
**[15:57] Black Mask**
She's approaching the point
where even I can't stop her?
**[16:00] Inglis**
It sounds like you've been busy.
But I've been focusing on training.
**[16:06] Rani**
Chris, something's coming! Focus!
**[16:12] Inglis**
Ivel! I'm so glad you're okay!
**[16:16] Ivel**
What? You were the one who
kicked me into the sky!
**[16:20] Black Mask**
Arch Lord... You're the emissary this time?
**[16:25] Ivel**
So you're the leader
of the Bloodchain Brigade?
**[16:28] Ivel**
What a stupid-looking costume.
**[16:30] Inglis**
Get back, Ivel. He's after your life.
**[16:35] Ivel**
That's exactly what I want!
**[16:37] Ivel**
I'm going to crush their leader,
before moving on to the rest of the maggots!
**[16:41] Black Mask**
Then I suppose I'll need to defend myself.
**[16:46] Inglis**
Wait! That's no reason to fight each other!
**[16:50] Inglis**
Why can't we all just get along?
**[16:52] Ivel/Black Mask**
You're one to talk!
**[16:54] Inglis**
Of course, if you'd both like to fight me...
**[16:58] Sistia**
I've secured the bridge.
**[17:00] Black Mask**
Well done, Sistia.
**[17:02] Black Mask**
Things have become rather complicated.
**[17:05] Black Mask**
Sistia, lend me your strength.
**[17:09] Sistia**
With pleasure.
**[17:12] Sistia**
My power, my being... Use them as you like.
**[17:16] Sistia**
I entrust it all to you.
**[17:20] Inglis**
The Hyral Menas is becoming a weapon?
**[17:22] Ivel**
Not if I can help it!
**[17:37] Inglis**
Amazing!
**[17:40] Inglis**
* It's absorbing aether,*
* rather than mana, and amplifying it!*
**[17:45] Inglis**
*The Hyral Menas lives up to their reputation!*
**[17:50] Yua**
Gotcha.
**[17:57] Liselotte**
You really are amazing, Yua.
**[18:01] Yua**
Thank you, Curly Hair.
**[18:03] Yua**
But I'm a little tired...
**[18:05] Miliera**
I think we're at our limits.
**[18:21] Liselotte**
Leone...
**[18:23] Liselotte**
Thank you!
**[18:28] Yua**
Nice, Two.
**[18:30] Silva**
She's using her spatial isolation Gift
at the same time... Well done.
**[18:34] Leone**
Thank you.
**[18:37] Leone**
But... sorry. I think I'm at my limit...
**[18:47] Silva**
Is this all we can do?
**[18:49] Miliera**
Let's defeat the magicite beasts
in front of us, at least!
**[18:57] Silva**
No!
**[19:00] Leone**
Lightning beasts? Is that...
**[19:07] Leone**
Brother?
**[19:09] Leon**
Hey.
**[19:10] Leon**
So, um... I'm sure you have a lot
you want to say to me.
**[19:15] Leon**
But I'm going to help you.
**[19:18] Leon**
Hey, don't look so mad.
**[19:21] Leon**
You saw that, right? I'm here to help.
**[19:25] Miliera**
Do you know how much Leone has suffered?
**[19:29] Miliera**
Do you think you can atone
by helping us here?
**[19:33] Leon**
I understand.
**[19:35] Leon**
Here.
**[19:39] Liselotte**
What is that?
**[19:41] Leon**
Mana mist.
**[19:43] Leon**
It should help you.
**[19:46] Liselotte**
He's right... My body feels so light...
**[19:50] Miliera**
That's a big help!
**[19:52] Leon**
Yeah, my new boss has a lot
of helpful stuff.
**[19:56] Leon**
He's the one who told me
to come here, actually.
**[20:01] (Flashback) Black Mask**
You shouldn't keep your desire for justice
bottled up within you.
**[20:05] (Flashback) Black Mask**
If there's something you want
to protect, go protect it.
**[20:09] Leon**
So I didn't have a choice. No choice at all.
**[20:12] Leone**
"No choice"?
**[20:15] Leon**
Leone, seal us all in pocket space again.
**[20:19] Leon**
You're still doubting me?
**[20:21] Leon**
I'm not going to try and trick you.
**[20:23] Leone**
I-I know!
**[20:25] Leon**
You're actually a little glad
I'm here, aren't you?
**[20:31] Leone**
I am not!
**[20:43] Leone**
You're feeding mana to Ripple, right?
**[20:49] Miliera**
Silva...
**[20:50] Silva**
Right.
**[20:51] Leon**
Get ready, everybody.
**[21:25] Rani**
Chris! Look!
**[21:26] Inglis**
It's from the direction of the academy.
**[21:39] Leon**
Hey, you okay?
**[21:41] Leone**
Brother, what was that?
**[21:44] Leon**
Look.
**[21:53] Leon**
Ripple summoned something unbelievable.
**[22:03] Inglis**
That's... a Prismer!

**[00:13] Rani**
No... A Prismer at the academy?
**[00:19] Inglis**
Wow!
**[00:20] Inglis**
Hey, Rani, that's a Prismer, right?
**[00:23] Rani**
Yeah, it is...
**[00:25] Inglis**
It's moving! It's not like the one
we saw in Almen that was frozen!
**[00:30] Inglis**
* When I was but an infant, I decided*
* that I'd one day defeat a Prismer on my own.*
**[00:35] Inglis**
*And now here it is, right before my eyes!*
**[00:38] Inglis**
*I'm so glad I was reborn to master the blade!*
**[00:43] Black Mask**
To be precise, it's not fully complete yet.
**[00:48] Ivel**
It's only a matter of time.
**[00:51] Inglis**
Oh, I just don't know!
**[00:53] Inglis**
Which should I fight?
**[00:56] Rani**
Come on, Chris! What are you thinking?
**[01:00] Rani**
We have to get back to
the academy, obviously!
**[01:03] Inglis**
Rani! B-But...
**[01:05] Ivel**
Get going.
**[01:07] Ivel**
This rat over here
was my prey from the start.
***SIGN*** Hey, no fair, Ivel!
***SIGN*** No stealing my opponents!
**[01:20] Ivel**
That thing will be annihilated
the moment it touches my shield!
***SIGN*** Reborn
***SIGN*** to Master the Blade

**[03:32] Liselotte**
This isn't good...
**[03:34] Yua**
What's this thing?
Is this what they call a last boss?
**[03:41] Miliera**
Leone! Liselotte!
**[03:44] Miliera**
Get the people who fell
unconscious out of here!
**[03:47] Both**
Yes, ma'am!
**[03:50] Leon**
Buy me a little time!
**[03:53] Miliera**
Yua, I'll put up a barrier.
**[03:56] Miliera**
Distract the Prismer.
**[04:00] Yua**
I'm scared of the big guy, though...
**[04:02] Miliera**
I will not let you talk back right now!
**[04:04] Miliera**
Go do it!
**[04:05] Yua**
O-Okay!
**[04:16] Leon**
Nice work, girlie!
**[04:21] Leon**
Hey, over here!
**[04:26] Yua**
Good stuff.
**[04:28] Yua**
Nice work, old man.
**[04:29] Leon**
I'm actually still in my twenties...
**[04:32] Yua**
The only thing to do with bad stuff
is get it over with as soon as you can.
**[04:37] Yua**
Hai-yah!
**[04:41] Leon**
Good! Nice punch!
**[04:43] Leon**
Reminds me of Inglis!
**[04:45] Yua**
No, I don't think it did anything.
**[04:48] Leon**
Huh? Looks like you pierced
its skin, though.
**[04:50] Yua**
No, I'm being sucked in. Suck-suck.
**[04:54] Leon**
What? Seriously?
**[04:56] Miliera**
Yua!
**[04:59] Miliera**
I surrounded her with a barrier!
**[05:02] Leon**
Okay, wait a second.
**[05:04] Leon**
This'll hurt a little,
but I'll blow that whole area away!
**[05:07] Yua**
ASAP, please.
**[05:13] Miliera**
Heat beam incoming! Run, everyone!
**[05:21] Leone**
Brother!
**[05:23] Miliera**
Leon!
**[05:29] Leone**
Brother!
**[05:31] Liselotte**
Are you okay?
**[05:33] Leon**
I guess...
**[05:34] Leon**
Bastard... That armor's
been my partner for years!
**[05:40] Yua**
I'm kind of in trouble here...
**[05:42] Leone**
Yua!
**[05:44] Liselotte**
No...
**[05:45] Miliera**
She's still okay!
**[05:47] Miliera**
The barrier's working!
**[05:49] Miliera**
She hasn't been completely absorbed!
**[05:53] Leon**
I'll find a way to dig her out!
**[05:57] Miliera**
Silva, how's Ripple looking?
**[06:01] Silva**
She's not absorbing my power anymore.
**[06:03] Silva**
This is likely the last magicite beast.
**[06:06] Miliera**
So we just have to survive this, then.
**[06:10] Silva**
Won't Ripple be waking up soon?
**[06:14] Silva**
If that happens, we can have her help...
**[06:17] Leon**
No, I wouldn't count on that.
**[06:20] Silva**
But why?
**[06:21] Silva**
This is exactly what the
Hyral Menases are for!
**[06:24] Leon**
She'll still be weak after what happened.
**[06:27] Leon**
Don't make her exert herself.
**[06:29] Miliera**
That Prismer probably isn't complete.
**[06:33] Miliera**
Let's find another way!
**[06:37] Miliera**
Take everyone to a pocket space
where they'll be safe!
**[06:40] Leone**
What will you do?
**[06:42] Miliera**
I'll figure things out.
**[06:45] Miliera**
If I go too, the barrier will disappear!
**[06:48] Leon**
Go!
**[06:49] Leone**
Brother...
**[06:51] Miliera**
Go!
**[06:57] Leone**
Here I go!
**[07:01] Miliera**
You're responsible for
your own safety, okay?
**[07:04] Leon**
Sure thing, "ma'am."
**[07:08] Leon**
Here it comes!
**[07:10] Miliera**
I'll stop it!
**[07:13] Rani**
Chris, we have to get back to the academy!
**[07:16] Inglis**
No, the others are there already.
They'll be fine.
**[07:19] Inglis**
It's important to believe in your comrades!
**[07:25] Inglis**
Good, the town's safe.
**[07:28] Inglis**
See?
**[07:28] Rani**
I don't see!
**[07:30] Sistia**
You girls sure make a lot of noise.
**[07:33] Sistia**
Get back to your friends.
**[07:35] Sistia**
We don't have time to deal with you.
**[07:38] Inglis**
W-Wait! Please don't leave!
**[07:41] Inglis**
I still want to fight you...
**[07:42] Sistia**
Silence!
**[07:43] Sistia**
I'm not here for your entertainment,
nor am I your playmate.
**[07:48] Black Mask**
We've achieved our goal
**[07:50] Black Mask**
of killing the Highlander emissary
and taking his battleship.
**[07:53] Black Mask**
That's enough for us. We're leaving.
**[07:57] Black Mask**
It seems to be growing
more complete by the second.
**[08:00] Black Mask**
You should hurry before it's too late.
**[08:03] Rani**
Chris!
**[08:06] Inglis**
I'm disappointed.
**[08:08] Inglis**
I wanted to fight you more.
**[08:11] Black Mask**
I'll pass.
**[08:12] Sistia**
You can have that as a gift from us. Go.
**[08:15] Inglis**
I'll see you again sometime.
**[08:17] Black Mask**
I certainly hope not.
**[08:32] Silva**
Ripple!
**[08:35] Ripple**
Guys, you're safe...
**[08:38] Liselotte**
Not as much as you'd think.
**[08:41] Silva**
The last magicite beast
summoned was a Prismer.
**[08:45] Ripple**
What? One of my comrades became a Prismer?
**[08:49] Leone**
The principal said it wasn't
complete yet, but...
**[08:53] Liselotte**
The principal and Leone's brother are
staying outside the pocket space to stop it.
**[09:00] Ripple**
Leon's here?
**[09:01] Leone**
He came to help us.
**[09:03] Ripple**
Even those two aren't strong enough
to do this on their own!
**[09:05] Ripple**
Leone, can you cancel the pocket space?
**[09:09] Leone**
Okay!
**[09:14] Liselotte**
The school building...
**[09:16] Ripple**
Miliera! Leon! Are you okay?
**[09:19] Miliera**
Ripple! Good timing!
**[09:22] Leon**
You awake now, Sleeping Beauty?
**[09:24] Miliera**
We're okay for now, barely, but help
would be more than appreciated!
**[09:30] Ripple**
Leave it to me.
**[09:34] Ripple**
I've caused problems for everyone...
so now I'll protect them in turn!
**[09:39] Ripple**
Because I'm a Hyral Menas!
**[09:42] Ripple**
Even if you were once my comrade...
**[09:44] Ripple**
No, *because* you were once my comrade...
**[09:46] Ripple**
I have to do this!
**[09:51] Silva**
Wow.
**[09:52] Leon**
She always did know how to move.
**[10:01] Silva**
Ripple! Get out of here!
**[10:06] Ripple**
No!
**[10:16] Silva**
Ripple!
**[10:18] Leon**
No! It might hit Ripple!
**[10:21] Silva**
Damn it!
**[10:22] Leon**
What do we do, Miliera?
**[10:24] Miliera**
I don't know how long that barrier will last.
**[10:27] Miliera**
First, we need to get it out of the city
before the barrier breaks
**[10:30] Miliera**
and its beams can hit something!
**[10:34] Leon**
Ripple!
**[10:45] Silva**
Ripple!
**[10:47] Ripple**
I'm fine. Hyral Menases are tough.
**[10:52] Ripple**
If you want to get it out of the city,
I'll be the one to draw its attention.
**[10:57] Leon**
You need to rest. I'll do that.
**[11:00] Ripple**
Please... I need to be the one to...
**[11:04] Silva**
Ripple...
**[11:06] Silva**
Please, become a weapon
and lend me your strength!
**[11:09] Ripple**
I can't do that!
**[11:11] Silva**
I'm still in training, but I can do this!
**[11:15] Silva**
Please!
**[11:16] Silva**
Ever since you saved me when I was a child,
**[11:21] Silva**
I've been training so that
I could fight with you some day!
**[11:25] Silva**
I became strong, just like you told me to!
**[11:31] Ripple**
Silva...
**[11:33] Ripple**
I didn't think the little kid I saved
would become such a strong young man...
**[11:37] Ripple**
Time sure flies.
**[11:40] Ripple**
I've gotten older, too, haven't I?
**[11:43] Silva**
You saved my life, and I want to repay you.
**[11:47] Silva**
The Highlanders are
using you for their plots,
**[11:49] Silva**
and forcing you to fight your comrades...
and I want to protect your heart!
**[11:55] Ripple**
Silva... But...
**[11:59] Miliera**
Ripple?
**[12:01] Ripple**
N-No! I wasn't trying to do it!
**[12:05] Leon**
Stop it, Ripple! Don't turn into a weapon!
**[12:07] Leon**
He's still too young!
**[12:09] Ripple**
N-No! I'm not the one who wants to do it...
**[12:12] Ripple**
His will is drawing me in!
**[12:25] Silva**
Ripple...
**[12:27] Leone**
Th-That's Ripple...
**[12:30] Liselotte**
...in the form of a weapon.
**[12:33] Silva**
I can feel it... Incredible power...
**[12:36] Silva**
With this, I can defeat anything!
**[12:43] Silva**
Even a Prismer!
**[12:46] Leon**
Stop! Drop it!
**[12:48] Miliera**
Silva, calm down!
**[12:50] Miliera**
You can't let the power take control!
**[12:53] Leon**
You're not ready to use that!
**[12:55] Silva**
Ripple answered my request.
Get out of the way.
**[13:00] Leon**
I said, put it down!
**[13:05] Silva**
Don't get in my way!
**[13:24] Ripple**
Inglis?
**[13:25] Inglis**
Looks like I made it just in time!
**[13:27] Rani**
How? In what possible way?
**[13:30] Rani**
It looks more to me like you attacked one
of our allies before he could save the day!
**[13:35] Miliera**
Please don't break my barrier!
**[13:38] Leon**
Here it comes! Miliera! Rebuild the barrier!
**[13:41] Miliera**
No! There's no time!
**[13:43] Inglis**
I'll take full responsibility!
**[13:45] Leone/Liselotte**
Inglis?!
**[13:52] Inglis**
*I guess I can't kick it as far as Ivel...*
**[13:57] Ripple**
It didn't work! It's going to fire!
**[13:59] Inglis**
That's just what I was hoping it would do!
**[14:03] Inglis**
Come on, fire!
**[14:07] Miliera**
The beams are heading for the city...
**[14:08] Liselotte**
This is bad!
**[14:13] Leon**
The beams changed direction?
**[14:15] Miliera**
Wh-What's going on?
**[14:18] Ripple**
It's Inglis!
**[14:20] Ripple**
She's punching the beams!
**[14:23] Miliera**
All of you, disappear into the sky!
**[14:27] Leone**
It's too fast to see...
**[14:34] Inglis**
* In the fifteen years since I was reborn...*
* have I ever been this excited?*
***SIGN*** My partner's
a Prismer!
***SIGN*** My partner's
a Prismer!
***SIGN*** My partner's
a Prismer!
***SIGN*** My partner's
a Prismer!
***SIGN*** My partner's
a Prismer!
**[14:39] Inglis**
*I couldn't be happier!*
**[14:42] Rani**
Chris is definitely trying to have fun.
**[14:46] Miliera**
Inglis! This isn't the time!
**[14:50] Miliera**
See that light?
**[14:52] Miliera**
Yua's been absorbed inside it!
**[14:54] Inglis**
Yua? Got it!
**[15:00] Inglis**
* I'll focus my attacks around Yua*
* and dig her out!*
**[15:08] Ripple**
L-Look! It's faster than when it fought me!
**[15:12] Leon**
With a body that size...
**[15:14] Leon**
I can't believe it!
**[15:17] Inglis**
* I need to do more than*
* just dodge its attacks all day.*
**[15:23] Leon**
She blocked it?
**[15:24] Inglis**
* It's not just fast! There's an incredible*
* weight behind each of its strikes!*
**[15:27] Inglis**
*Wonderful!*
**[15:33] Leon**
Uh, guys...
**[15:35] Leon**
She's blocking the Prismer's punches
and kicks with her own...
**[15:40] Ripple**
Maybe she was really a Hyral Menas all along?
**[15:44] Miliera**
It looks like blocking is all
she can do, though...
**[15:48] Inglis**
* There's no opening for me*
* to launch an attack of my own.*
**[15:51] Inglis**
So...
**[15:54] Inglis**
Aether Pierce!
**[15:58] Inglis**
Aether Strike!
**[16:01] Miliera**
Inglis! The light of Yua's barrier
is growing weaker!
**[16:05] Miliera**
It's going to completely absorb her!
**[16:10] Inglis**
*I have one thing that might do the trick.*
**[16:12] Inglis**
*I have to get close to try it...*
**[16:17] Inglis**
*but it's watching for that.*
**[16:20] Rani**
Chris!
**[16:24] Inglis**
Rani!
**[16:33] Inglis**
Leone! Liselotte!
**[16:35] Liselotte**
We'll distract it!
**[16:37] Leone**
That'll be your chance!
**[16:39] Rani**
Here we go!
**[16:49] Inglis**
Aether Strike!
**[16:54] Inglis**
Even you can't dodge in mid-air!
**[16:57] Inglis**
*That's what I've been waiting for!*
**[17:09] Leon**
It's working!
**[17:11] Miliera**
The rainbow-colored skin
is taking damage, too!
**[17:14] Rani**
Go! Blow it away!
**[17:17] Inglis**
No!
**[17:19] Inglis**
Hang in there! Stand strong!
You can take this!
**[17:26] Rani**
Chris!
**[17:27] All**
Inglis!
**[17:30] Inglis**
Go!
**[17:32] Inglis**
Aether Breaker!
**[18:04] Leon**
Is it over?
**[18:06] Ripple**
The Prismer... is defeated?
**[18:09] Leone**
Wh-Where's Inglis?
**[18:11] Rani**
She's fine!
**[18:19] Inglis**
I worked up a nice sweat today!
**[18:22] All**
Hooray!
**[18:24] Miliera**
I'm so glad!
**[18:26] Miliera**
You did it, Inglis!
**[18:29] Ripple**
Nice work, Inglis!
**[18:31] Ripple**
You're the best!
**[18:32] Liselotte**
I thought for a moment that when
it disappeared, it took Yua with it.
**[18:36] Ripple**
I'm amazed you were able to save her.
**[18:38] Inglis**
I pulled her out while I was
piercing through the Prismer.
**[18:41] Rani**
That new technique is the
strongest you've ever used!
**[18:45] Rani**
They're gonna let us eat free at the
cafeteria for even longer now, Chris!
**[18:49] Inglis**
Is that true, ma'am?
**[18:51] Miliera**
Y-Yes, of course it is!
**[18:56] Inglis**
I'm starving after all that fighting!
**[18:58] Rani**
So let's go!
**[19:00] Inglis**
Huh?
**[19:01] Rani**
Where's the cafeteria?
**[19:03] Miliera**
It got blown up.
**[19:05] Miliera**
You can eat your fill when it's rebuilt.
***SIGN*** Several Days Later
**[19:18] Silva**
Hey, you there.
**[19:20] Silva**
Stop slacking, and work.
**[19:22] Yua**
You didn't do anything
when the big guy showed up.
**[19:24] Yua**
So you should do all the work here.
**[19:28] Silva**
I would've beaten the Prismer
if I hadn't been interrupted!
**[19:33] Silva**
You don't believe me, do you?
**[19:35] Liselotte**
And what happened to the two girls who want
the cafeteria back more than anything?
**[19:40] Leone**
They said they were going to the royal court.
**[19:43] Miliera**
The king summoned them himself!
**[19:50] Ripple**
Did you see what happened
when I turned into a weapon?
**[19:53] Inglis**
Yeah. That could've been a big problem.
**[19:55] Ripple**
So you knew what you were doing
when you stopped him.
**[19:58] Ripple**
If Silva had fired...
**[20:01] Inglis**
We would've paid a heavy price
for defeating the Prismer.
**[20:08] Ripple**
I don't know how I would've been able
to face everyone after that.
**[20:13] Inglis**
That's how the relationship between a holy
knight and a Hyral Menas works, right?
**[20:19] Inglis**
I finally understand why Eris got
so agitated when she met Rani.
**[20:25] Rani**
Chris! I'm all ready!
**[20:28] Ripple**
Don't tell Rafinha that.
**[20:32] Inglis**
Of course.
**[20:36] Carius**
Thank you both so much for your help.
**[20:39] Carius**
You have my deepest gratitude.
**[20:41] Inglis/Rani**
Your words honor us, sire.
**[20:44] Carius**
Especially you, Inglis.
**[20:46] Carius**
You defeated the Highlander Arch Lord alone
and drove away the Bloodchain Brigade.
**[20:52] Carius**
The judgment and decisiveness you showed
**[20:55] Carius**
make you truly worthy
to lead my country's knights.
**[20:58] Inglis**
I'm honored... Huh?
**[21:00] Carius**
Inglis Eucus, I hereby declare you
the new head of the Royal Guard.
**[21:10] Rani**
You're making Chris the head
of the Royal Guard?
**[21:13] Rani**
But...
**[21:14] Carius**
Your power rivals that of a
Hyral Menas or holy knight.
**[21:20] Carius**
None could be better suited for the job.
**[21:23] Knights**
Congratulations, Lady Inglis!
**[21:25] Knights**
Please become our leader!
**[21:27] Rani**
Sure, Chris is strong, and decisive...
**[21:32] Rani**
* But... this means Chris won't*
* be with me anymore, right?*
**[21:38] Rani**
* I should be happy she's getting*
* an offer like this, though!*
**[21:42] Rani**
*I have to be happy for her...*
**[21:44] Rani**
*But... But...*
**[21:47] Inglis**
It's an honor, truly, but I must refuse.
**[21:52] Rani**
Whaaa?
**[21:54] Carius**
Wh-What?
**[22:03] Rani**
You're sure about this, Chris?
**[22:05] Inglis**
I already decided to always be by your side.
So it doesn't bother me at all.
**[22:09] Rani**
You're saying that, but the real
reason is that the commander
**[22:13] Rani**
doesn't get a lot of chances to
fight on the front lines, right?
**[22:18] Inglis**
You could tell, huh?
**[22:21] Rani**
Chris, let's be friends forever, okay?
**[22:24] Inglis**
Yeah, let's do our best together, Rani!
**[22:28] Inglis**
Now, let's go home.
**[22:30] Rani**
Yeah.
**[22:31] Carius**
Wait, you two.
**[22:33] Carius**
We're not done talking yet.
**[22:40] Carius**
I wanted to bring you here
to thank you for your efforts yesterday.
**[22:45] Ripple**
This feast was actually intended to celebrate
Inglis's appointment as commander, but yeah.
**[22:49] Carius**
You're not going to turn
this down too, are you?
**[22:52] Inglis**
Not at all, Your Majesty!
**[22:55] Rani**
We accept with pleasure!
**[22:57] Inglis/Rani**
Now, let's both say it together...
**[22:58] Inglis/Rani**
Meat!
