**[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!*
