[00:04] Orphen
    Another attack?!
[00:07] Isabella
    Listen carefully, Krylancelo.
    The Deep Dragon has disappeared.
[00:11] Orphen
    What?
[00:12] Isabella
    Pluto, Master Maria, and the lord
    have all disappeared, as well.
[00:16] Isabella
    Including the injured, the
    only ones left are
[00:19] Isabella
    about half of the Thirteen Apostles.
[00:20] Orphen
    What about Claiomh?
[00:24] Orphen
    Pluto, Master Maria, and the best
    out of the Thirteen Apostles...
[00:27] Orphen
    If it were anyone else,
    it'd be safe to assume they ran away.
[00:32] Orphen
    Pluto may have left the injured
    and minimal combatants here
[00:36] Orphen
    and headed into the barrier somehow...
[00:42] Orphen
    Claiomh...
[00:49] Orphen
    Are we gonna be able to stop this attack?
[00:51] Isabella
    I'm not sure. If only Master
    Maria had stayed behind...
[00:57] Orphen
    Master Maria left you here because
    she knew she could count on you.
[01:01] Orphen
    Let's do what we need to do for now.
[01:03] Orphen
    First, we need to make sure as many
    of us stay alive as possible.
[01:07] Isabella
    Right.
[01:09] Orphen
    But this attack... It's pretty far away.
[01:13] Isabella
    Is it a diversion, then?
SIGN    Night Knocker's Ambition
[02:51] Majic
    Orphen.
[02:53] Orphen
    What?
[02:53] Majic
    Claiomh just disappeared
    without saying anything?
[02:58] Orphen
    No... I'm sure she was
    trying to say something,
[03:01] Orphen
    but I just couldn't tell.
[03:03] Majic
    Claiomh, why...?
[03:05] Orphen
    Who knows?
[03:07] Orphen
    The more I think about it, I'm pretty sure
    I've never understood what she's thinking.
[03:14] Dick
    Halt!
[03:16] Orphen
    What's the situation?
[03:18] Dick
    There's no one...
[03:25] Orphen
    Jack?!
[03:33] Orphen
    I guard against thee...
[03:34] Majic
    I destroy thee...
[03:35] Orphen
    Halo Armor!
[03:35] Majic
    Primordial Stillness!
[03:42] Orphen
    That was some solid teamwork.
[03:45] Orphen
    While one defends, the other attacks.
[03:49] Orphen
    You're on par with the Thirteen Apostles.
[03:51] Majic
    Right!
[03:52] Jack
    You two are the last ones...
[03:56] Orphen
    Jack Frisbee...
[03:59] Orphen
    I'll take care of him.
[04:01] Majic
    But...
[04:03] Orphen
    I'm going to use all of my strength
    and techniques to fight him.
[04:07] Orphen
    You won't be able to keep up, will you?
[04:10] Orphen
    We can't team up if we're not
    sure what the other is gonna do.
[04:14] Orphen
    I'm going to have you do something
    far more important than
[04:18] Orphen
    trying to take down this assassin.
[04:20] Orphen
    Go report the current situation to Isabella.
[04:23] Orphen
    There should be another squad
[04:24] Orphen
    of Red Dragons who'll attack the
    tent with all of the injured.
[04:27] Orphen
    Go and stop that.
[04:28] Majic
    Me?
[04:30] Orphen
    Hurry up and go!
[04:32] Orphen
    You're the only one who
    can do this right now.
[04:37] Orphen
    Majic...
[04:39] Orphen
    Someday, you'll be a full-fledged Sorcerer.
[04:44] Orphen
    Even if it's not right now...
    Someday, you will be.
[04:47] Jack
    You chased him off.
[04:48] Orphen
    No. I actually considered going myself.
[04:52] Jack
    You're not strong enough
    to protect everyone.
[04:56] Orphen
    I'm not going to protect
    everyone. I'm just a Sorcerer.
[05:03] Orphen
    But I'm going to crush you here and now!
[05:06] Jack
    You said you were going to use all
    of your strength to fight me.
[05:10] Jack
    Then let me tell you this...
[05:12] Jack
    My power is that of an evil spirit.
[05:17] Jack
    An evil spirit that has possessed me and
    can never be exorcised from my body.
[05:22] Jack
    That's where my life began.
[05:26] Jack
    When I was a child, every time I woke
    up, some bone in my body would be broken.
[05:31] Jack
    An exorcist was able locate the evil
    spirit dwelling within my shadow.
[05:36] Jack
    My parents tried every form of exorcism
    they could find, exhausting themselves...
[05:43] Jack
    Eventually, my parents came to
    see me as a demon myself.
[05:48] Jack
    I had to escape, but I couldn't even walk.
[05:53] Jack
    That's when I started hearing the voice.
[05:57] Jack
    By listening to that voice,
[05:59] Jack
    I was able to move my broken arms
    and legs for the first time.
[06:02] Jack
    I ran away from my village,
    met a martial arts master,
[06:07] Jack
    and then learned the true
    nature of the evil spirit.
[06:12] Jack
    I was born with abnormally powerful muscles,
    powerful enough to crush my bones.
[06:18] Jack
    My master showed me how to use this.
[06:22] Jack
    I have to move the smallest possible
    amount, or my bones can't take it.
[06:26] Jack
    The voice I heard taught me powerful
    martial arts completely naturally.
[06:32] Jack
    Martial arts take discipline.
[06:34] Jack
    But for me, existing alone was
    learning discipline in martial arts.
[07:03] Orphen
    Get up... Stand up!
[07:16] Orphen
    Looks like your fist was
    crushed with that last blow.
[07:21] Orphen
    Why do you insist on going that
    far to protect the sanctuary?
[07:27] Jack
    One reason is to avenge the death of a friend.
[07:31] Jack
    The other is
[07:32] Jack
    to meet the devil who completely crushed
    all of the ones who believed in me.
[07:38] Jack
    I need somewhere to fight.
[07:41] Orphen
    So that's why you despaired...
    and now, you're an assassin.
[07:46] Jack
    This crime and punishment just may love me.
[07:51] Orphen
    The light never reaches rock bottom.
[07:55] Orphen
    But if you look up and try to crawl out,
    you should be able to find something!
[07:59] Jack
    The fact that you're able to think
    that makes you a simply blessed man.
[08:04] Orphen
    Tell me about it.
[08:19] Jack
    The match had already been settled.
[08:22] Orphen
    This dagger is from back then when I...
[08:34] Jack
    What's the point of continuing to live?
[08:37] Jack
    Even you will eventually succumb to despair.
[08:41] Jack
    Just like poor Ryan Spoon Killmarked...
[08:49] Jack
    And myself.
[09:10] Isabella
    You're still alive...?
[09:13] Majic
    This area must've been
    attacked after we left.
[09:16] Majic
    Should I also have stayed behind here?
[09:20] Isabella
    If you did, there'd just
    be one more corpse.
[09:25] Isabella
    It's nothing more than a
    coincidence that I'm even still alive!
[09:30] Majic
    We... We... have to do everything we can.
[09:34] Isabella
    And what exactly is that?
[09:37] Isabella
    I was prepared for this.
    I mean, I should've been.
[09:41] Isabella
    But what is all of this?
[09:43] Isabella
    Why did this happen?
[09:45] Majic
    You need to stop crying!
[09:48] Majic
    The enemy might come back
    if they hear your voice.
[09:51] Majic
    And if that happens, I won't be
    able to protect you all alone.
[09:55] Majic
    I'm sorry for saying something dumb...
[10:00] Isabella
    To think that a child would
    tell me something like that.
[10:06] Isabella
    You're going to protect me?
[10:08] Isabella
    Even Irgitte, who was always
    overprotective, never said that to me.
[10:20] Orphen
    This presence...
[10:25] Corgon
    I'm going to save you the trouble and
    just tell you that I'm not actually here.
[10:29] Corgon
    This is just a virtual image
    I sent using the network.
[10:33] Orphen
    I heard that you kidnapped Lottecia.
[10:36] Orphen
    Why?
[10:37] Corgon
    I could explain everything, but
    none of it actually concerns you.
[10:41] Orphen
    You really have the nerve to
    say that after all of this?
[10:44] Corgon
    Don't go any further.
[10:47] Orphen
    The Spirit Sorcery Barrier...
[10:49] Corgon
    I'll leave out the minor details,
[10:51] Corgon
    but Lottecia is an artificial
    human created by the sanctuary.
[10:55] Orphen
    What?
[10:56] Corgon
    Very similar to the lord
    that Damian Rue created.
[11:00] Corgon
    They were created to operate a
    certain device in the sanctuary.
[11:04] Orphen
    The Second World-Seeing Tower?
[11:06] Corgon
    In order to completely summon
    the Demon King Swedenborge.
[11:10] Orphen
    Is that why you tried to
    get closer to Lottecia?!
[11:13] Corgon
    I only learned of this recently.
[11:17] Orphen
    Not a single thing you do
    makes any damn sense!
[11:21] Orphen
    You came here just to tell me that?
[11:23] Corgon
    No. I just prepared everything.
[11:27] Corgon
    I'm going to need you to
    participate very soon as well.
[11:31] Orphen
    Prepared everything?
[11:32] Corgon
    While you and the Thirteen Apostles
    have been keeping the priests busy,
[11:36] Corgon
    I managed to secure the vital
    point of the sanctuary.
[11:39] Corgon
    But there's something
    that I still lack.
[11:42] Corgon
    If you come to the sanctuary,
[11:44] Corgon
    what I need should automatically
    end up in my possession.
[11:48] Orphen
    What are you talking about?
[11:49] Corgon
    I can't tell you.
[11:51] Corgon
    It'd be trouble if you tried to
    use it in trying to stop me.
[11:56] Corgon
    Lottecia and Heartia are both there.
[11:58] Orphen
    Heartia?
[12:02] Orphen
    Whenever I hear his name, all I can
    think of is how stupid he used to look.
[12:07] Corgon
    He looks plenty stupid even
    now. There's no change.
[12:09] Corgon
    Actually, he might've perfected his stupidity.
[12:11] Corgon
    He got very angry at me because of you.
[12:15] Orphen
    How the hell is that my problem?
[12:17] Orphen
    But what's Heartia doing in the sanctuary?
[12:20] Corgon
    I'm not the one who summoned him there.
[12:22] Corgon
    Anyway, there's no more time.
[12:24] Corgon
    I'll tell you the ways to get through that
    barrier constructed from Spirit Sorcery.
[12:29] Corgon
    First, the barrier can't stop people
    who have already been in the sanctuary.
[12:34] Corgon
    Second, the barrier will not stop
    those guided in by people with access.
[12:40] Corgon
    And the final way to get through...
[12:42] Corgon
    One must prepare to die
[12:44] Corgon
    and wish to enter the sanctuary
    from the bottom of their heart.
[12:47] Orphen
    So basically... This really is a
    wall you will your way through.
[12:52] Corgon
    Your resolve will be tested, though.
[12:55] Orphen
    Hang on! You still haven't told me!
[12:57] Orphen
    What are you planning on
    doing in the sanctuary?
[13:01] Corgon
    Come see for yourself.
[13:03] Corgon
    Ultimately, I can't do anything until then.
[13:06] Orphen
    Corgon!
[13:07] Corgon
    Come to the sanctuary immediately.
[13:09] Corgon
    Leticia and Azalie are also here.
[13:30] Heartia
    I think this is enough.
[13:32] Heartia
    It's all junk anyway.
[13:35] Corgon
    Mm.
[13:41] Heartia
    Man, how did someone so hot end up with you?
[13:44] Heartia
    Also, this device is meant to
    move something bigger, right?
[13:49] Corgon
    Yeah. We aren't able to use it fully yet.
[13:53] Heartia
    Corgon... I think it's about
    time you tell me the truth.
[13:57] Heartia
    If you really aren't interested, then
    are you okay with me making my move...
[14:03] Heartia
    on her?
[14:04] Heartia
    Well? Are you and Lottecia an item?
[14:08] Corgon
    There's a war going on outside.
[14:11] Corgon
    I guess I should get going.
[14:14] Heartia
    Hey! Corgon!
[14:16] Orphen
    According to Corgon,
[14:18] Orphen
    you need to be prepared to
    die to go through here.
[14:22] Majic
    Prepared to die?
[14:24] Orphen
    So everyone who went through
    here was prepared to die?
[14:57] Orphen
    I got through, Corgon! But I
    have no intention of dying!
[15:02] Orphen
    Knowing you,
[15:04] Orphen
    you'll probably just say that I was
    subconsciously prepared to die.
[15:12] Leticia
    Just how long are we supposed to wait?
[15:17] Leticia
    They're not going to wait forever, you know.
[15:24] Azalie
    There.
[15:26] Azalie
    We're going to make our move.
[15:31] Leticia
    Don't move!
[15:33] Preenia
    Are you satisfied, Sorcerer?
[15:35] Preenia
    Yes, we lose.
[15:37] Preenia
    The Second World-Seeing Tower has
    been taken over by a betrayer.
[15:41] Preenia
    While you had our attention
    and we couldn't do anything.
[15:45] Leticia
    You couldn't do anything? Really?
[15:48] Leticia
    We know that you had people
    attack the Thirteen Apostles.
[15:52] Azalie
    That's enough. I've completed
    my final recovery.
[15:56] Azalie
    I can spatially transfer now.
[15:58] Leticia
    You're always so...
[16:10] Leticia
    I swear, you always have the worst timing.
[16:13] Azalie
    Krylancelo has killed Jack Frisbee.
[16:18] Azalie
    He's going to come here to the sanctuary,
[16:20] Azalie
    now even more powerful a
    Sorcerer than our master.
[16:22] Leticia
    What's the point in that?
[16:24] Azalie
    He has the opportunity to defeat Corgon,
    who's recently become invincible.
[16:28] Leticia
    And?
[16:30] Azalie
    I'm going to have him make a decision
    that I can't make myself right now.
[16:34] Leticia
    I have no idea what you're talking about.
[16:36] Azalie
    You don't have to understand.
[16:38] Leticia
    Is Corgon already so out of control?
[16:41] Leticia
    Just who is he?
[16:43] Azalie
    He's Corgon. He's doing whatever
    he wants, just like he always has.
[16:47] Leticia
    So how is he any different from you?
[16:50] Azalie
    The Chaos Witch and the Night Knocker...
    I guess we're both trouble.
[16:57] Azalie
    I think that the superhuman Lottecia
    Crewbstar came out here to find someone.
[17:03] Leticia
    Find someone?
[17:04] Azalie
    Well, she'd have to leave if the person
    she's looking for wasn't in the sanctuary.
[17:10] Leticia
    What was she looking for?
[17:11] Azalie
    So basically, he must be the one that both
    the angels and demons had their eye on.
[17:22] Leticia
    Silver Flash!
[17:30] Leticia
    I knew it. That's...
[17:36] Leticia
    I see... So this wind filled with sand...
[17:42] Azalie
    It's the goddess's wind... the dust.
[17:50] Leticia
    Master Maria.
[18:00] Isabella
    The sanctuary is up ahead?
[18:02] Majic
    Are you going to search for the Thirteen
    Apostles, Assistant Instructor Isabella?
[18:06] Isabella
    I need to find Master and
    Pluto. What about you?
[18:10] Orphen
    Decide for yourself.
[18:12] Orphen
    I won't be able to be responsible
    for anyone's lives from now on.
[18:17] Orphen
    Not even my own.
[18:20] Isabella
    Be careful, Krylancelo.
[18:22] Orphen
    You too, Isabella.
[18:25] Isabella
    You don't need to go with him?
[18:27] Majic
    I'll catch up later.
[18:30] Majic
    Just like Orphen said...
    I'd just be in the way.
[18:34] Majic
    So, I...
[18:37] Majic
    I wanted to thank you.
[18:40] Majic
    Thank you very much for training
    me these past few days.
[18:46] Majic
    I'll never forget everything
    you've taught me.
[18:50] Isabella
    I hope you don't forget the warning, either.
[19:01] Isabella
    Curse you, sanctuary... You
    won't get away with this.
[19:09] Isabella
    I'm being attacked?
[19:11] Lord
    A sniper.
[19:13] Isabella
    You're...
[19:14] Lord
    Sorry. I'm the one they're after.
[19:18] Isabella
    Who's shooting?
[19:20] Lord
    Someone who wants to take me out with them.
[19:22] Lord
    Sorry, but on my signal, please
    release a flash of light.
[19:26] Isabella
    Huh?
[19:27] Lord
    And after that, if you
    could move reflexively.
[19:31] Isabella
    Um...
[19:33] Lord
    Now!
[19:34] Isabella
    Oh, damn it! O, Light!
[19:42] Corgon
    Almagest Betisletha.
[19:45] Lord
    Yuis Els Ito Egum Ed Corgon Swedenborge...
[19:51] Isabella
    Why did you just say the Demon King's name?
[19:52] Corgon
    Because that's the last part of the
    spell, but there's still a ways to go.
[19:56] Lord
    Absolutely not. The end of the
    world is right before us.
[20:02] Corgon
    One of the Thirteen Apostles...
    You can't stop me now.
[20:10] Corgon
    I've already obtained the
    Second World-Seeing Tower.
[20:13] Corgon
    Now, I just need to summon the Demon King.
[20:16] Corgon
    This should meet all the
    requirements you wish for.
[20:20] Lord
    The problem is whether the
    summoning will work or not.
[20:23] Lord
    There's no point if it fails.
[20:25] Corgon
    Then team up with Lottecia.
[20:27] Corgon
    If one isn't enough, the probability of this
    succeeding should increase with two of you.
[20:31] Corgon
    Come on. We're going to end this.
[20:36] Lord
    I'll go later. I promise.
[20:39] Corgon
    Very well. Now that you know
    the preparations are complete,
[20:43] Corgon
    you'll have to come eventually, anyway.
[20:51] Corgon
    Sorry about that. I had
    you act as my shield.
[20:55] Isabella
    What were you two just talking about?
[20:57] Lord
    You want to reconvene with Pluto, don't you?
[20:59] Lord
    He's in the direction you thought
    he'd be in. You should hurry.
[21:04] Lord
    Once he finds the opening,
[21:05] Lord
    he's going to charge in with every
    intention of taking the sanctuary over.
[21:09] Isabella
    Is that supposed to be a shield, too?
[21:12] Lord
    I'm certain I told you all from the
    start to return to the royal capital.
[21:16] Lord
    That would've been for the best.
[21:18] Lord
    Because there's absolutely no
    point or worth in your deaths.
[21:28] Isabella
    Are we nothing more than pebbles?
[21:42] (Flashback) Corgon
    Come to the sanctuary immediately.
[21:45] (Flashback) Corgon
    Leticia and Azalie are also here.
[23:31] Claiomh
    Don't get in my way!
[23:32] Orphen
    Corgon, with the way you're doing things,
[23:34] Orphen
    the continent will still be
    overwhelmed with despair.
[23:37] Corgon
    There's no other way!
