[00:07] ---
    Major Sirius...
[00:10] ---
    As of this moment,
[00:11] ---
    I order you to temporarily suspend pursuit
    and elimination of the deserters,
[00:15] ---
    and return to your original mission.
[00:18] ---
    Make the securing of the spell that caused
    Scorched Halloween or its user your top priority.
[00:26] ---
    If securing is impossible,
    you will need to eliminate the caster.
[00:40] ---
    That's...
[00:42] ---
    The Brionac.
[00:43] ---
    Headquarters has given you
    permission to use it.
[00:46] ---
    For now, assume
    that Tatsuya Shiba is your target.
[00:49] ---
    Tomorrow night, you'll take the Stardust
    members and launch an attack on the target.
[00:54] ---
    You are to equip the Brionac and
    intervene when you judge it necessary.
[01:03] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[02:36] ---
    "FEBRUARY 15, 2096"
[02:39] ---
    "ROBOT"
[02:47] ---
    Oh, Shiba!
[02:49] ---
    Is it true that Pixie
    has emitted magical energy?
[02:53] ---
    Yes. We detected traces
    of high-density Psions from the P94's body.
[02:59] ---
    They were emitted
    from inside the chest area.
[03:04] ---
    Pixie's chest region is where its
    electronic brain and containment vessels
[03:07] ---
    for fuel cells are, right?
[03:09] ---
    Which one did it come from?
[03:10] ---
    It was from close to the electronic brain.
[03:13] ---
    Seriously, this is too much.
[03:16] ---
    And we saw traces of Pushions, too.
[03:23] ---
    Would you tell me what happened?
[03:27] ---
    The incident started
    exactly at seven this morning.
[03:34] ---
    As usual, after Pixie's
    self-diagnostic program ended,
[03:38] ---
    it should've gone into suspend mode.
[03:44] ---
    Access school student records.
[03:47] ---
    But, this morning,
    Pixie's functions did not cease...
[03:50] ---
    and it accessed First High Schools' server.
[03:53] ---
    Wasn't the forced shutdown
    command transmitted?
[03:56] ---
    It was, for sure.
[03:58] ---
    The command was executed
    inside Pixie's electronic brain.
[04:03] ---
    But...
[04:04] ---
    Reboot.
[04:06] ---
    Requesting access
    to school student records.
[04:12] ---
    Request access again.
[04:16] ---
    In the end, Pixie continued to access
    the school's student records...
[04:20] ---
    until the server shut down the system.
[04:29] ---
    It was smiling the whole time.
[04:33] ---
    Its expression was kind of excited.
[04:38] ---
    Like it was eager about something.
[04:42] ---
    I understand.
[04:45] ---
    I'll take a look.
[04:47] ---
    Pixie, cancel suspend mode.
[04:52] ---
    What do you require?
[04:54] ---
    Lie down face-up on that stand
    and move into inspection mode.
[05:03] ---
    I found you.
[05:10] ---
    Shiba is even popular with robots.
[05:14] ---
    I was not aware you had a hobby
    of playing with dolls, Brother.
[05:20] ---
    I wasn't the one who hugged her here.
[05:23] ---
    She hugged me.
[05:24] ---
    With your physical skills, Brother,
    it should've been quite easy to dodge!
[05:30] ---
    If I had dodged,
    it would've hit you, wouldn't it?
[05:35] ---
    I-I'm terribly sorry for my rudeness.
[05:39] ---
    M-More importantly,
    we need to do something about Pixie.
[05:43] ---
    Pixie, move.
[05:49] ---
    Sit on that table.
[05:51] ---
    At once.
[05:53] ---
    Mizuki...
[05:54] ---
    Yes?
[05:56] ---
    Take a look inside Pixie.
[05:59] ---
    Mikihiko, I want you to be on guard
    so she doesn't suffer any major injury.
[06:03] ---
    You think Pixie is possessed by something?
[06:07] ---
    That's right.
[06:23] ---
    It's there!
[06:26] ---
    The parasite!
[06:37] ---
    But this pattern is...
[06:45] ---
    What?
[06:51] ---
    This pattern...
    It's just like Honoka's.
[06:58] ---
    What does that mean?
[06:59] ---
    The parasite is under the influence
    of Honoka's thought waves.
[07:04] ---
    Um, does that mean
    she's controlling it?
[07:09] ---
    No, I don't believe
    it's that sort of connection.
[07:13] ---
    It's more like, the parasite
    is copying Honoka's thoughts.
[07:17] ---
    Or maybe I should say that Honoka's feelings
    have been burned into the parasite.
[07:22] ---
    I didn't do anything like that!
[07:25] ---
    She's not saying you did it on purpose.
[07:28] ---
    Right, Mizuki?
[07:30] ---
    Yes. It's not conscious.
    They're more like residual thoughts.
[07:39] ---
    That is correct.
[07:41] ---
    I awakened to especially
    strong feelings toward him.
[07:49] ---
    Active telepathy?
[07:51] ---
    The residual Psions must've actually
    been psychic power, not magic.
[07:58] ---
    Can you communicate through speech?
[08:01] ---
    I am able to understand speech.
[08:04] ---
    However, it is difficult to control
    this body's vocal organs...
[08:08] ---
    so please allow me to use telepathy
    in order to communicate my intent.
[08:12] ---
    You seem to be communicating
    in our language quite well.
[08:12] ---
    A robot is smiling.
    B-Because of Honoka? Psy-Psy-Psychic?
[08:15] ---
    How did you learn it?
[08:17] ---
    I have inherited
    the knowledge of my previous host.
[08:21] ---
    Then, are you the parasite from before?
[08:24] ---
    Parasite. An organism that feeds off
    another organism. Yes, we are similar to that.
[08:28] ---
    How many people
    have you sacrificed thus far?
[08:31] ---
    How many?
    I cannot answer that question.
[08:35] ---
    I do not remember.
[08:37] ---
    So many that you don't remember
    the exact number?
[08:40] ---
    That is incorrect.
[08:41] ---
    The only thing we can inherit
    when shifting host bodies
[08:46] ---
    is the knowledge detached
    from the host's personality.
[08:50] ---
    We lose all memories linked
    to their personality upon moving.
[08:55] ---
    I see. That means you don't know
    what kind of person your previous host was.
[09:00] ---
    And you don't remember whether
    there was one, two or more of them.
[09:07] ---
    That is correct.
[09:09] ---
    Your understanding is accurate.
[09:11] ---
    So, you can offer your own impressions
    in addition to answering questions.
[09:14] ---
    Do all of you have emotions, as well?
[09:17] ---
    We, too, possess a desire
    for self-preservation.
[09:21] ---
    You mean to say you possess likes and dislikes,
[09:24] ---
    originating in deciding
    whether things are beneficial
[09:26] ---
    or detrimental to self-preservation?
[09:28] ---
    That is correct.
[09:30] ---
    What should we call you?
[09:33] ---
    We have no name,
[09:35] ---
    so please call this individual
    by its nickname, "Pixie."
[09:39] ---
    Then, Pixie...
[09:41] ---
    Are you our enemy?
[09:44] ---
    I am subordinate to you.
[09:47] ---
    To me? Why?
[09:49] ---
    I want to be yours.
[09:51] ---
    I awoke from my resting state because of
    the individual named Honoka Mitsui's thoughts.
[09:57] ---
    We are drawn to strong
    and highly pure thoughts,
[10:01] ---
    and we form our ego
    using those thoughts as a core.
[10:05] ---
    Highly pure...
[10:07] ---
    Do you mean thoughts rooted in single desires?
[10:09] ---
    That is correct.
[10:11] ---
    I believe that, in your language,
[10:13] ---
    the concept of prayer would be closest.
[10:17] ---
    I want to do everything for you.
[10:22] ---
    I want to be useful to you.
[10:25] ---
    I want to serve you.
[10:27] ---
    I want to be yours.
[10:30] ---
    I want to offer everything to you.
[10:33] ---
    That is the prayer that awoke me.
[10:37] ---
    And right now, the desire
    to become yours makes up my core.
[10:44] ---
    Therefore, I am subordinate to you.
[10:51] ---
    I'm surprised you all have an ego,
[10:53] ---
    and even more so that you're
    all entirely passive beings.
[10:57] ---
    In other words, you didn't come to
    this world because you wished to. Correct?
[11:02] ---
    We originally are simple beings that exist.
[11:06] ---
    We are given wishes by our host.
[11:09] ---
    That hits close to home.
[11:11] ---
    Anyway, am I correct in saying
    you will follow my instructions?
[11:15] ---
    That is my wish.
[11:19] ---
    Then, you will obey my orders.
[11:22] ---
    I hereby forbid you to use psychic powers
    without my permission.
[11:26] ---
    You're using a sort of telekinesis
    to change your expression, too, right?
[11:29] ---
    None of that, either.
[11:32] ---
    As you command.
[11:41] ---
    I'd never even suspected
    the monster could possess a robot.
[11:46] ---
    It's probably because
    it was a humanoid type.
[11:49] ---
    What an unlikely tsukumogami.
[11:56] ---
    You have piano and etiquette
    lessons today, don't you?
[11:59] ---
    Yes.
[12:00] ---
    Then, I'll come pick you up
    when it's over like usual.
[12:04] ---
    Yes. I will be waiting for you.
[12:40] ---
    Five of them...
[12:42] ---
    And they're...
[12:45] ---
    surveillance from another faction?
[12:51] ---
    Everyone is in position.
[12:54] ---
    Major Sirius...
[12:55] ---
    The Stardust unit is in place.
    What is your situation?
[13:00] ---
    Ready to deploy.
[13:02] ---
    Good. First, the Stardust unit
    will attempt to capture the target.
[13:07] ---
    If that proves impossible, they will lure him
    to the park where you're waiting.
[13:11] ---
    After that, I will leave it
    to your judgment.
[13:13] ---
    Roger that.
[13:14] ---
    Then, begin the operation!
[13:53] ---
    What? The spell bounced back!
[14:05] ---
    An engineered magician...
    No, an enhanced human?
[14:15] ---
    Enhanced beyond their physical capacity.
[14:17] ---
    At this rate, I bet they've got
    only a handful of years to live.
[14:21] ---
    A true suicide squad.
[14:54] ---
    "VISITOR ARC VII"
[15:00] ---
    That spell...
[15:01] ---
    No doubt about it.
[15:03] ---
    That was Strategic-Class magic,
    Heavy Metal Burst.
[15:17] ---
    The target has begun
    following Major Sirius.
[15:20] ---
    Why did Major Sirius decide
    to leave her position?
[15:25] ---
    And to fire the Brionac
    in the middle of traffic...
[15:29] ---
    Summon the relay vehicle!
[15:30] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[15:39] ---
    She canceled her camouflage.
[15:42] ---
    To focus her mind on this attack spell?
[15:46] ---
    Tatsuya...
[15:47] ---
    You'd better surrender.
[15:49] ---
    I don't know how you disable magic,
[15:53] ---
    but you won't be able
    to mess with the Brionac!
[16:00] ---
    I see.
[16:08] ---
    No time!
[16:26] ---
    The Brionac...
[16:28] ---
    That which pierces. The Brionac.
[16:31] ---
    One of the weapons
    the Celtic god of light Lugh possessed.
[16:35] ---
    Does that naming mean...
[16:38] ---
    you've reproduced the mythical weapon?
[16:41] ---
    Tatsuya!
[16:44] ---
    I'll say it again.
[16:46] ---
    Surrender!
[16:47] ---
    You can't use your martial arts
    with only one arm!
[16:49] ---
    You have no chance of defeating me now!
[16:52] ---
    What would you do with me
    as your prisoner?
[16:55] ---
    Human experimentation?
[16:57] ---
    Like you did with them?
[17:00] ---
    It doesn't really need to be said,
    but I refuse to be your guinea pig.
[17:04] ---
    Then...
[17:05] ---
    I'll incapacitate you
    and drag you away with me!
[17:13] ---
    Your arm...
[17:15] ---
    How?
[17:43] ---
    Lina...
[17:44] ---
    You'd be better off
    quitting the army as soon as you can.
[17:49] ---
    For a soldier, you're too naïve.
[17:52] ---
    Or rather, you're too soft.
[17:55] ---
    Sirius, commander of the Stars...
[17:58] ---
    I really don't think you're fit for this job.
[18:03] ---
    Oh, hello, Mr. Tatsuya.
[18:05] ---
    What's the matter?
[18:06] ---
    I'm sorry for calling so late, Mr. Hayama.
[18:10] ---
    Actually, I just came under attack
    by a small USNA military force.
[18:15] ---
    Oh...
[18:16] ---
    After fighting off their first wave,
[18:18] ---
    I engaged in combat with the Stars commander,
    Angie Sirius, and defeated her, too.
[18:22] ---
    Then, I took down the backup team,
[18:26] ---
    backed up the data they'd recorded,
    and then erased everything they'd left.
[18:41] ---
    Next, I repaired Sirius's wounds...
[18:44] ---
    and erased all signs that we'd fought.
[18:48] ---
    While making contact with the first wave,
[18:51] ---
    I noticed other observers,
    not with the USNA army.
[18:55] ---
    They must have been Section Three.
[18:59] ---
    Section Three...
[19:01] ---
    Then, that unit was under
    the Saegusa Family's yoke.
[19:03] ---
    Yes. Mr. Koichi, the current leader of
    the Saegusa Family, seems to be interested.
[19:09] ---
    I expect he is investigating the parasites...
    or more likely, is trying to capture one.
[19:14] ---
    What a pain.
[19:16] ---
    We will do something about
    the USNA military for the time being.
[19:18] ---
    Please send the backed up data here.
[19:23] ---
    Without an excuse to make
    Section Three take action,
[19:26] ---
    Mr. Koichi should back out
    for the time being, as well.
[19:29] ---
    Thank you.
[19:37] ---
    Is something wrong?
[19:40] ---
    No.
[19:41] ---
    Nothing.
[19:47] ---
    Brother...
[19:49] ---
    You aren't hurt, are you?
[19:50] ---
    Miyuki, calm down a little.
[19:53] ---
    I shall not calm down! This blood...
[19:56] ---
    You fought with Lina, didn't you?
    And it wasn't one-on-one, either, was it?
[20:02] ---
    Please just stay calm.
[20:05] ---
    You know that nobody can leave injuries
    on me if I don't let them, right?
[20:12] ---
    I'm terribly sorry, Brother.
[20:16] ---
    That was shameful of me.
[20:19] ---
    Not at all. I'm sorry for worrying you.
[20:23] ---
    No, that's not... It's natural for
    a sister to worry about her brother!
[20:28] ---
    I'm aware that no matter how many times
    Lina challenges you, she can't defeat you.
[20:34] ---
    Nobody can defeat you,
    though you may search the entire world.
[20:42] ---
    I wouldn't lose to anyone.
[20:45] ---
    Not with you waiting for me.
[21:06] ---
    Where am I?
[21:14] ---
    Nobody's here?
[21:25] ---
    Why?
[21:31] ---
    No injuries...
[21:33] ---
    No pain?
[21:36] ---
    What's going on?
[21:38] ---
    No.
[21:39] ---
    Exotype magic...
[21:41] ---
    A mental attack?
[21:43] ---
    Have we been misunderstanding
    something really important?
[21:48] ---
    What if Tatsuya isn't a Mass-energy
    Conversion Magic spell caster...
[21:53] ---
    but a magician with a high aptitude
    for Sensory Interference Magic?
[21:58] ---
    An illusion master?
[22:00] ---
    Oh, right!
[22:02] ---
    I have to report to the control room!
[23:42] ---
