[00:12] Kirito
    Why?
[00:13] Kirito
    Why did you lose to the Synthesis Ritual?
[00:17] Kirito
    Wasn't the reason
    you trained to be a swordsman
[00:19] Kirito
    and left Rulid Village
    to head for the capital city, Centoria,
[00:23] Kirito
    to bring back your cherished childhood friend, Alice?
SIGN    The 32nd Knight
[02:28] Kirito
    Eugeo.
[02:29] Kirito
    You and I have never fought seriously before,
    have we?
[02:34] Kirito
    I've thought about it a lot.
[02:37] Kirito
    Which one of us would win
    if we seriously crossed swords?
[02:41] Kirito
    To be honest,
    I always thought you'd surpass me one day.
[02:48] Kirito
    I've never shown you this skill before!
[03:05] Eugeo
    Burst Element.
[03:18] Alice
    Is that person really your partner, Eugeo?
[03:22] Kirito
    What do you mean?
[03:24] Kirito
    You're the one who said
    that Eugeo had already been synthesized!
[03:28] Alice
    That's true, but...
[03:30] Alice
    I'm not sure how to say this.
[03:32] Alice
    For someone who just
    became an Integrity Knight,
[03:35] Alice
    he seems too accustomed to battle.
[03:38] Alice
    For instance,
    the Incarnate Arms skill he used earlier,
[03:40] Alice
    as well as that Aerial Element skill just now,
[03:43] Alice
    makes it hard to believe he's a novice.
[03:47] Alice
    Should I fight him next?
[03:51] Kirito
    I'll do it.
[04:01] Kirito
    I'm counting on you, partner.
[04:03] Kirito
    I promise to give you a name
    when this fight is over.
[04:06] Kirito
    So lend me your strength!
[04:09] Kirito
    Let's go, Eugeo!
[04:51] Kirito
    Does the skill you just used have a name?
[04:54] Eugeo
    Baltio style. Storm Wave.
[04:57] Kirito
    Baltio style? Golgorosso-senpai's sword style.
[05:01] Kirito
    Eugeo, do you...
[05:03] Kirito
    do you remember who taught you that sword skill?
[05:06] Eugeo
    I don't know or care.
[05:09] Eugeo
    She's the only one I need to know.
[05:11] Eugeo
    It's for her sake that I take up my sword,
    and I live in order to eliminate her enemies.
[05:19] Kirito
    There's no doubt.
[05:20] Kirito
    Just like Eldrie and Alice, now Eugeo has...
SIGN    The Piety Module is inserted in a way that blocks links to memories.
SIGN    This seals away the past of the person becoming an Integrity Knight,
SIGN    while simultaneously forcing absolute fealty to the Axiom Church and the pontifex.
[05:38] Kirito
    What kind of memories originally existed
    where the module's embedded?
[05:43] Kirito
    If I can figure that out...
[05:45] Kirito
    No, words won't be enough
    to break Administrator's art!
[05:51] Kirito
    What I infuse my sword with
    will reach his soul.
[05:54] Kirito
    That's what I'm going to believe!
[05:57] Kirito
    Eugeo!
[06:04] Kirito
    Remember!
    There are people who are precious to you!
[06:08] Kirito
    Selka, who's waiting back in Rulid Village
    for our return!
[06:12] Kirito
    Golgorosso-senpai and Liena-senpai,
    who instructed us at Swordcraft Academy!
[06:16] Kirito
    Tiese and Ronie, who worried about us
    right up till the moment we said goodbye!
[06:20] Kirito
    And above all...
[06:21] Kirito
    wasn't your wish
    to go back to Rulid with Alice?
[06:32] Kirito
    You have to remember, Eugeo!
[07:10] Eugeo
    Eugeo.
[07:26] Eugeo
    Alice.
[07:28] Kirito
    Did you remember, Eugeo?
[07:34] Kirito
    Eu... geo...
[07:40] Alice
    Kirito!
[07:43] Eugeo
    Enhance Armament.
[07:57] Kirito
    Eugeo.
[07:59] Kirito
    Why?
[08:32] Chudelkin
    Have you dealt with those rebels,
    Number Thirty-two?
[08:38] Eugeo
    I've sealed the two rebels in ice,
    Your Eminence, Prime Senator.
[08:44] Chudelkin
    That's fine, but...
[08:46] Chudelkin
    you did finish them off properly, didn't you?
[08:50] Eugeo
    No, I did not finish them off, Prime Senator.
[08:54] Eugeo
    Since the pontifex's order was to stop the rebels.
[08:58] Chudelkin
    That won't do! That just won't do!
[09:01] Chudelkin
    When you speak to me, remember to call me,
    "Your Eminence, Prime Senator."
[09:04] Chudelkin
    "Your Eminence," got that? "Your Eminence"!
[09:06] Chudelkin
    The next time you forget the "Your Eminence,"
    you'll be turned into a horse as punishment!
[09:11] Chudelkin
    You'll carry me on your back,
    and while you're on all fours, I'll go "hi-yo"!
[09:19] Chudelkin
    Now then, I think I'll go
    carry out Her Eminence's orders.
[09:36] Eugeo
    Lady Pontifex.
[09:38] Administrator
    Welcome back, Eugeo.
[09:41] Administrator
    You've taken care of your errand.
[09:44] Eugeo
    Yes.
[09:45] Administrator
    Well done! In that case,
    I should give you a reward.
[09:49] Administrator
    Please climb onto the bed.
[09:58] Administrator
    All right, Eugeo, as promised,
    let me give you what you desire.
[10:05] Administrator
    Love that's meant only for you.
[10:09] Eugeo
    Yes.
[10:11] Administrator
    But first, let me heal that wound for you.
[10:19] Administrator
    Also,
[10:20] Administrator
    let me have another good look at your face.
[10:24] Administrator
    Since there was a convenient hole
    in your memory,
[10:27] Administrator
    I inserted the module there,
[10:30] Administrator
    but perhaps I shouldn't have been lazy.
[10:33] Administrator
    Let's redo your synthesis.
[10:36] Administrator
    You can have your reward after that,
    all right, Eugeo?
[11:11] Administrator
    Just lie still.
[11:18] Administrator
    This is an improved module
    I had just completed.
[11:22] Administrator
    Synthesizing you with it allows you
    to use the power of "Meaning" immediately.
[11:31] Administrator
    Will you show me your memories again?
[11:34] Administrator
    This time, I'll insert it into the location
    of what you hold most dear.
[11:39] Administrator
    I've made it so you can move your mouth.
[11:42] Administrator
    Now, chant the command I taught you earlier.
[11:46] Administrator
    Did you forget it?
    What am I going to do with you?
[11:50] Administrator
    It's "Remove Core Protection."
[11:54] Eugeo
    M...
[11:58] Eugeo
    M...
[12:02] Eugeo
    Mo...
[12:05] Eugeo
    Mo... ve!
[12:08] Administrator
    You...
[12:44] Administrator
    For you to have regained your senses...
[12:46] Administrator
    You certainly fooled me.
[12:51] Administrator
    Not to mention, that prop is the handiwork
    of that little brat from the Library, no?
[12:56] Administrator
    But that's too bad.
[12:58] Administrator
    No metal object of any kind
    can damage my skin now.
[13:04] Administrator
    You poor child.
[13:05] Administrator
    Just when I'd promised you
[13:08] Administrator
    that if you gave all of yourself to me,
    I'd love you back the same amount.
[13:12] Administrator
    That eternal love you've been seeking all your life,
    that eternal control...
[13:17] Administrator
    you were so close to obtaining it!
[13:22] Eugeo
    Eternal... love?
[13:25] Eugeo
    Eternal... control.
[13:28] Administrator
    That's right, Eugeo.
[13:30] Administrator
    If you entrust everything to me,
[13:32] Administrator
    the thirst that's been making you suffer
    will be quenched instantly.
[13:36] Administrator
    All the fears and worries you've been carrying
    will be erased.
[13:41] Administrator
    This is your last chance, Eugeo.
[13:44] Administrator
    Use the sword at your waist
    to shatter that toy.
[13:47] Administrator
    Do that, and I shall forgive your heinous crime
    with my tremendous amount of love.
[13:54] Eugeo
    To love is to control, and to be controlled.
[14:01] Eugeo
    You're the pitiful one,
    for having no other way to say it!
[14:06] Eugeo
    I'm sure you were once the same way.
[14:08] Eugeo
    Starved for love and sought it out,
[14:11] Eugeo
    but you were never given any.
[14:13] Eugeo
    Love isn't about control.
[14:16] Eugeo
    Nor is it something you can gain as a reward
    or in a transaction.
[14:19] Eugeo
    The same way you water flowers,
[14:21] Eugeo
    you give it continuously.
[14:23] Eugeo
    I'm sure that that's what love is!
[14:28] Administrator
    How disappointing.
[14:29] Administrator
    I was going to forgive a sinful young boy
    for rebelling against the Axiom Church
[14:33] Administrator
    and try to save his soul,
[14:36] Administrator
    but this is how you speak to me?
[14:43] Administrator
    Maybe it would be a waste
    to kill you and turned you into a jewel.
[14:47] Administrator
    It will take some time, but perhaps
    I'll use force synthesis on you, just like her.
[14:53] Eugeo
    Like her?
[14:53] Administrator
    That's right.
[14:55] Administrator
    Thirty, whom you're so infatuated with.
[14:57] Administrator
    Because she also refused to chant the command,
[15:00] Administrator
    the automated senators worked on her for days
    to forcefully disable her protection.
[15:05] Eugeo
    Alice?
[15:06] Administrator
    Well, I was asleep,
    so I wasn't actually watching,
[15:10] Administrator
    but it must have been so agonizing for her.
[15:14] Administrator
    Well? How do you feel about
    getting to at least share that experience?
[15:29] Eugeo
    Shatter.
[16:04] Administrator
    That sword...
[16:07] Administrator
    Now I see.
[16:14] Chudelkin
    Please save me!
[16:17] Chudelkin
    Please save me, Your Eminence, Pontifex!
[16:23] Chudelkin
    You!
[16:23] Chudelkin
    H-He's a traitor, Your Eminence!
[16:26] Chudelkin
    He claimed that he sealed away Thirty
    and the other one, but he went easy—
[16:32] Chudelkin
    Let go!
[16:45] Eugeo
    Kirito.
[16:55] Kirito
    Yo, Eugeo!
[17:05] Eugeo
    Sorry.
[17:07] Eugeo
    I gave in to Administrator's temptation,
    and ended up hurting you both.
[17:12] Eugeo
    I thought I should at least atone for it
    by my own hand.
[17:15] Kirito
    You're being so cold, Eugeo.
[17:17] Kirito
    I knew that's what you were thinking right away.
[17:22] Eugeo
    You're the same as always.
[17:27] Eugeo
    Alice.
[17:42] Kirito
    Is that the pontifex, Administrator?
[17:46] Alice
    That's right.
[17:48] Alice
    She hasn't changed at all after six years.
[17:51] Administrator
    It was almost time
    to reset Bercouli and Fanatio,
[17:55] Administrator
    but I've only used you for six years, right?
[17:59] Administrator
    Your logic circuits don't seem to be malfunctioning.
[18:03] Administrator
    Could it be the influence of that irregular unit?
[18:06] Administrator
    How amusing.
[18:09] Administrator
    Hey, Alice, there must be something
    you want to say to me.
[18:14] Administrator
    I won't get mad. So say it now.
[18:30] Alice
    Lady Pontifex,
[18:32] Alice
    our glorious order of Integrity Knights
    has been destroyed as of today.
[18:38] Alice
    All because of the swords
    of the two rebels beside me,
[18:42] Alice
    as well as the endless obsession and deception
    you built along with this tower.
[18:48] Alice
    My ultimate mission is to safeguard a tranquil lifestyle
    and peaceful sleep for those without swords.
[18:54] Alice
    Therefore, Lady Pontifex, your actions
[18:57] Alice
    are unquestionably detrimental to the well-being
    of those who reside in the Human Empire.
[19:03] Chudelkin
    Shut... Shut your mouth!
[19:06] Chudelkin
    Y-You lowly, defective puppet knight!
[19:10] Chudelkin
    You wretched knights are merely puppets
    that can only do as I order you to.
[19:16] Administrator
    It doesn't seem to be a logic circuit error, after all.
[19:19] Administrator
    And her Piety Module is still functioning.
[19:22] Administrator
    Meaning that she disabled the Code 871
    imposed by that person of her own volition?
[19:29] Administrator
    Rather than by a sudden emotional burst?
[19:32] Kirito
    Code 871?
    Is she talking about the Seal of the Right Eye?
[19:36] Administrator
    Well, I won't know anything more
    unless I run an analysis.
[19:41] Administrator
    Now then. Chudelkin?
[19:43] Administrator
    Since I'm so generous, I'm giving you the chance
    to restore your ruined reputation.
[19:49] Administrator
    Let's see you render those three powerless
    with your arts.
[19:55] Chudelkin
    Y-Y-Your Eminence, Pontifex!
[19:58] Administrator
    What, Chudelkin?
[20:02] Chudelkin
    I, Prime Senator Chudelkin,
[20:04] Chudelkin
    for the first time in my many years of service,
    beg to present to you a most insolent request!
[20:10] Chudelkin
    I shall gladly risk my life annihilating these rebels.
    Therefore!
[20:14] Chudelkin
    Once I've carried out my mission,
    if Your Eminence... Y-Your Eminence...
[20:18] Chudelkin
    If you would allow me touch your exalted body
    with my own hands and kiss you,
[20:22] Chudelkin
    A-A-A-And then spend the night of my dreams with you...
[20:26] Chudelkin
    Please... please... please grant me that wish!
[20:35] Administrator
    Very well, Chudelkin.
[20:38] Administrator
    I swear on the goddess of creation, Stacia.
[20:40] Administrator
    When you've fulfilled your mission,
[20:42] Administrator
    every inch of my body
    will be yours for the taking, for one night.
[20:51] Chudelkin
    I am overcome with supreme joy at this moment.
[20:56] Chudelkin
    And now... and now, I...
[21:01] Chudelkin
    My fighting spirit's been amplified!
    I'm overflowing with energy!
[21:03] Chudelkin
    To be more specific...
[21:05] Chudelkin
    I am invincible!
[21:09] Chudelkin
    System... Call!
[21:13] Chudelkin
    Generate...Thermal... Element!
[21:28] Chudelkin
    Let me show you.
[21:30] Chudelkin
    My greatest, ultimate sacred art...
[21:33] Chudelkin
    Come forth, genie!
[21:35] Chudelkin
    Burn these rebels to ash!
[23:36] Kirito
    Next time: Titan of the Sword.
