**[00:41] (Flashback) Mia**
Doroka.
**[00:43] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
Mia.
**[00:45] (Flashback) Mia**
I'm glad you're all right.
**[00:47] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
Mia, what happened?
**[00:51] (Flashback) Mia**
I don't know.
**[00:53] (Flashback) Mia**
The humans suddenly attacked.
**[00:56] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
But we got along so well until recently.
**[01:00] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
We even went all the way to
the city to cure Mr. Tom's illness.
**[01:05] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
This can't be happening.
**[01:07] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
I know! We can use magic.
**[01:09] (Flashback) Mia**
We can't.
**[01:10] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
What?
**[01:12] (Flashback) Mia**
That machine is suppressing our magic.
**[01:15] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
What is that?
**[01:18] (Flashback) Mia**
Madam Ophelia might know something.
**[01:22] (Flashback) Mia**
Doroka, run.
**[01:24] (Flashback) Mia**
You must tell Madam
Ophelia what's happening.
**[01:30] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
You want me to go alone?
**[01:32] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
No, let's go together.
**[01:35] (Flashback) Mia**
Listen to me.
**[01:37] (Flashback) Mia**
You're a good girl.
**[01:42] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
Mia, what did they do to you?
**[01:46] (Flashback) Mia**
Follow the Star of Revelation,
and you'll reach Madam Ophelia's mansion.
**[01:52] (Flashback) Mia**
I took you there during
the Fertility Festival.
**[01:54] (Flashback) Mia**
You know the way, right?
**[01:56] (Flashback) Mia**
Doroka.
**[01:58] (Flashback) Mia**
You're a strong girl.
**[02:00] (Flashback) Mia**
Run as quickly as you can,
and no one will be able to catch you.
**[02:03] (Flashback) Mia**
You'll have crossed the mountains
before you know it.
**[02:07] (Flashback) Mia**
Now go.
**[02:12] (Flashback) Young Doroka**
Okay.
**[02:14] (Flashback) Mia**
Don't look back. Just run.
**[02:16] (Flashback) Mia**
You're a truly strong girl.
**[02:19] (Flashback) Empire Soldier A**
So this is where the bitch ran off to.
**[02:24] (Flashback) Empire Soldier B**
Let's resume our fun.
**[04:17] Adonis**
Hey.
**[04:18] Doroka**
I'm sorry.
**[04:23] Adonis**
Wait! Don't die on me.
**[04:25] Adonis**
How do I do it?
**[04:27] Adonis**
How can I bring Chloe back to life?
**[04:33] Doroka**
Listen to me.
**[04:35] Doroka**
The witches are...
**[05:00] Adonis**
Don't screw with me, witch.
**[05:03] Adonis**
Bring Chloe back from the dead?
**[05:05] Adonis**
That's not enough for
me to know what to do.
**[05:14] Solider A**
The fiend is dead.
**[05:20] Eekhout**
It's over, Director Yamato.
**[05:23] Adonis**
Don't get cocky, humans.
**[05:37] Soldier B**
Fire, fire!
**[06:09] Adonis**
Cainz.
***SIGN*** Cainz
**[06:40] Eekhout**
Die.
**[07:00] Adonis**
Written-Style Summoning Magic...
***SIGN*** Maximum
Gaine
**[07:13] Adonis**
Maximum Gaine.
**[07:15] Adonis**
Now die.
**[07:25] Eekhout**
Is he for real?
**[07:39] Adonis**
Powerless insects.
**[07:42] Adonis**
Did you think you had
any chance of beating me?
**[07:46] Adonis**
Did you really think you could beat magic?
**[07:49] Adonis**
Did you think you could live
in peace after killing Chloe?
**[07:55] Adonis**
Fuck you!
**[07:58] Adonis**
I'll wipe every last one of
you off the face of this planet.
**[08:04] Adonis**
*You'll know Chloe's despair.*
**[08:07] Yamato**
Hurry, Yuki.
**[08:14] Yuki**
This is the DAM...
**[08:17] Yuki**
The crown jewel of science
that once defeated the witches.
**[08:21] Yuki**
Once activated, we'll be
able to suppress his magic.
**[08:26] Yuki**
*Finally...*
**[08:29] Yuki**
*I'll be useful to my brother.*
**[08:37] Yuki**
Hurry up, you two!
**[08:39] Soldiers A & B**
S-Sorry, ma'am!
**[08:42] Theta**
I knew the hot-blooded National
Security Bureau would show up here.
**[08:46] Yuki**
You're...
***SIGN*** One of the Four National Bureaus of
the Redia Empire: The National Science Agency
***SIGN*** National Science Agency Director
Theta Samanstah
**[08:52] Theta**
Yuki, you've grown stronger
since I last saw you.
**[08:57] Theta**
Unfortunately, I can't allow you
to activate this device.
**[09:03] Yuki**
What do you mean?
**[09:06] Yuki**
I request an explanation.
***SIGN*** Yuki
**[09:16] Yamato**
What is it, Yuki?
**[09:18] Yamato**
Why haven't you activated the device yet?
**[09:20] Theta**
* Right now, you're about as calm*
* as boiling water, aren't you?*
**[09:24] Yamato**
That voice... Director Theta.
**[09:27] Theta**
*Do you have a moment to speak?*
**[09:30] Yamato**
Not currently.
**[09:33] Yamato**
We're in a race against time.
**[09:35] Yuki**
My phone!
**[09:36] Theta**
Don't be so on edge, Director Yamato.
**[09:41] Theta**
You can't activate the
Magic Photon Suppression Device.
***SIGN*** Dear Brother
**[09:46] Yamato**
*Why not?*
**[09:48] Theta**
Science is the work of humanity
that sheds light on the world.
**[09:56] Theta**
But while we've explained
much about the world,
***SIGN*** Dear Brother
**[10:00] Theta**
there are still things
we don't understand...
**[10:07] Theta**
Such as the particles emitted
by the Magic Photon Suppression Device.
**[10:12] Yamato**
So what?
**[10:14] Theta**
*Human Cellular Dysfunction Disease.*
**[10:17] Theta**
*Recognize the name?*
**[10:19] Yamato**
It's the illness developed by soldiers who
participated in the witch hunts ten years ago.
**[10:25] Yamato**
What's that got to do with it?
**[10:27] Theta**
* We can't say for certain due to*
* the large number of factors,*
**[10:31] Theta**
* but we believe these particles*
* affected the human body.*
**[10:43] Theta**
*This device kills cells.*
**[10:46] Yamato**
That's news to me.
**[10:50] Theta**
Because we hid it.
**[10:55] Theta**
Unfortunately, there are no more witches
left to restore the natural environment.
**[11:02] Theta**
The atmosphere that would've
cleansed these harmful rays is gone.
**[11:07] Theta**
Nature has fallen out of grace.
**[11:10] Theta**
As things are now, if a human body were
exposed to a massive amount of particles,
**[11:14] Theta**
it would be destroyed.
**[11:17] Yamato**
*That can't be...*
**[11:20] Theta**
You know what happened to those who fought
for humanity and stood before this device.
**[11:30] Yamato**
Then His Majesty's illness is...
***SIGN*** Dear Brother
**[11:56] Theta**
Now you know. You should leave now.
**[12:02] Theta**
Yuki.
***SIGN*** Dear Brother
**[12:09] Theta**
Yuki! Wait!
**[12:12] Yuki**
*We can't afford to worry about illnesses*
**[12:16] Yuki**
*when the threat of magic is right before us.*
**[12:20] (Flashback) Yamato**
Yuki, it's in your hands.
**[12:22] (Flashback) Yamato**
This is of national importance.
**[12:23] (Flashback) Yuki**
Yes, sir.
**[12:29] Theta**
All units, retreat. Quickly.
**[12:33] Theta**
Yuki, wait!
**[12:35] Theta**
Didn't you hear what I said?
**[12:37] Theta**
Don't activate that device!
**[12:39] Theta**
Even a little exposure
could have consequences.
**[12:42] Theta**
Yuki!
**[12:44] Yuki**
This is of national importance,
**[12:47] Yuki**
Brother.
**[13:05] Adonis**
Huh?
**[13:11] Operator**
The target has dropped the quill, Director.
**[13:16] Yamato**
What happened, Director Theta? How is Yuki?
**[13:22] Theta**
It was nothing.
**[13:25] Theta**
Everything's fine here.
***SIGN*** Dear Brother
**[13:28] Yamato**
*Did Yuki do something? Could it be...?*
**[13:31] Theta**
Look in front of you, kid!
**[13:37] Theta**
* Is this really someone you can't beat*
* without suppressing magic?*
**[13:40] Theta**
* Should we really be having*
* this much trouble with that boy?*
**[13:44] Theta**
*What should you be doing?*
**[13:47] Yamato**
Quickly exterminating
those who harm the empire.
**[13:51] Theta**
*Yes.*
**[13:53] Theta**
We are Redia, the indestructible empire.
**[14:00] Yamato**
All units, charge!
**[14:13] Captain**
Aim!
**[14:15] Captain**
Hey, stay out of the line of fire!
**[14:20] Woman Soldier**
How dare you harm our nation.
**[14:22] Captain**
Stay away from him.
**[14:38] Woman Soldier**
Thermo blade on!
**[14:42] Woman Soldier**
Witch's apprentice, my ass!
**[14:46] Adonis**
*Am I going to die?*
**[14:50] Adonis**
*I get to die?*
**[14:54] Adonis**
*Finally, I can be with you.*
**[15:12] Soldier G**
Is that soldier all right?
**[15:14] Soldier H**
I can't see because of all the smoke.
**[15:17] Soldier I**
Hey, look.
**[15:28] Woman Soldier**
I did it.
**[15:33] Woman Soldier**
I killed the witch's apprentice.
**[15:45] Soldier G**
All right! He's dead!
**[15:49] Soldier H**
What forces are you with?
**[15:51] Soldier I**
Nice work.
**[15:53] Operator A**
They defeated the witch's apprentice?
**[15:56] Operator B**
This is the power of Redia!
**[15:58] Operator C**
Serves you right!
**[16:05] Yamato**
This is Yamato of the NSB.
**[16:07] Yamato**
Well done, everyone.
**[16:10] Yamato**
Good work defeating the witch's apprentice.
**[16:13] Yamato**
But don't celebrate yet.
**[16:16] Yamato**
Collect his body and confirm
the damage done to each area of the city.
**[16:22] Yamato**
Link up with the rescue crews,
and help the victims.
**[16:28] Yamato**
It was that soldier who killed him.
**[16:31] Yamato**
She's so young.
**[16:33] Hq Staff A**
I believe she's a new recruit
of the armored foot soldiers.
**[16:35] Hq Staff A**
I'll look into it.
**[16:36] Yamato**
Don't bother.
**[16:38] Yamato**
See how Director Theta
and Vice-Director Yuki are doing.
**[16:42] Yamato**
On the double.
**[16:43] Hq Staff A**
Yes, sir.
**[16:45] Yamato**
*You're right, Director Theta.*
**[16:50] Yamato**
*We are... This nation is strong.*
**[17:03] Goethe**
Magic survived.
**[17:06] Goethe**
Those abominable occult arts
still remained in this world.
**[17:12] Goethe**
That boy we took from the witch's hands ten
years ago has been unleashed upon the world.
**[17:17] Goethe**
It's the worst possible outcome.
**[17:21] Goethe**
This is truly a disaster.
**[17:23] Goethe**
Long-term prisoner
and witch's apprentice, Adonis.
**[17:29] Goethe**
Despite being human like us,
**[17:32] Goethe**
that fiend was a remnant of
the terrible old world enthralled by magic.
**[17:38] Goethe**
Even after ten years, we've failed to
determine how he used magic as a human.
**[17:48] Goethe**
Looking back, I cannot help
but feel enraged that I allowed him to live.
**[17:56] Goethe**
But fear not, my people.
**[17:59] Goethe**
This is Redia, the pinnacle of the world.
**[18:05] Goethe**
The power of science we've acquired
**[18:08] Goethe**
and our iron-willed troops
will yield to no evil.
**[18:14] Goethe**
Let the flames of pride burn in our hearts.
**[18:18] Goethe**
Be proud you were born
human in the Redia Empire.
**[18:23] Goethe**
The old world is gone. God is dead.
**[18:27] Goethe**
This nation is now God.

**[18:43] Teacher**
A few of our students died,
and I know things haven't been easy,
**[18:48] Teacher**
But the national mock exams start tomorrow.
**[18:50] Teacher**
Let's move past this.
**[18:52] Teacher**
Got it?
**[18:53] Teacher**
Okay, homeroom is over.
**[18:56] Boy Student**
Sir.
**[18:57] Boy Studnet**
Why did the witch's apprentice side
with the witches if he's human?
**[19:03] Teacher**
Who knows?
**[19:04] Teacher**
He was probably brainwashed or something.
**[19:07] Teacher**
Oh, first period is PE. Get changed quickly.
**[19:17] Girl Student**
I saw you.
**[19:21] Girl Student**
I saw what you did.
**[19:23] Eri**
What?
**[19:24] Eri**
What's your problem? You're so annoying.
**[19:27] Eri**
That was a normal reaction
to that situation.
**[19:29] Eri'S Friend**
Eri, hurry up.
**[19:31] Eri'S Friend**
Yamane's a drag if you're late.
**[19:41] Eri**
Die, you ugly bitch.
**[19:55] Eri**
Disaster, my ass.
**[19:58] Eri**
Do your damn jobs and protect the citizens.
**[20:02] Eri**
Sorry, Takuma.
**[20:05] Eri**
*You must hate me.*
**[20:07] (Flashback) Takuma**
Eri! Eri!
**[20:10] (Flashback) Takuma**
Eri, I'm screwed! Pull me out!
**[20:13] (Flashback) Eri**
What are you doing, Takuma?
**[20:17] (Flashback) Eri**
Huh?
**[20:19] (Flashback) Takuma**
Eri?
**[20:21] (Flashback) Eri**
I'm so sorry.
**[20:23] (Flashback) Takuma**
What? Wait, Eri!
**[20:26] (Flashback) Takuma**
You're abandoning me?
**[20:28] (Flashback) Takuma**
You're the one who said
you had feelings for me!
**[20:40] Eri**
I suck.
**[20:44] Eri**
I abandoned my boyfriend,
**[20:47] Eri**
and I think this guy using magic...
**[20:53] Eri**
is kinda hot.
**[20:54] Oz**
Now that's shameful.
**[20:59] Oz**
Sorry, sorry. Looks like I scared you.
**[21:03] Eri**
*He's with the government.*
**[21:08] Oz**
It's okay.
**[21:09] Oz**
You don't have to delete those.
**[21:10] Oz**
You like those photos, right?
**[21:13] Oz**
But don't tell anyone about them.
**[21:16] Oz**
The witch's apprentice is the heinous
criminal who caused that disaster.
**[21:21] Oz**
Don't be so scared.
**[21:23] Oz**
I won't snitch on you.
**[21:25] Eri**
R-Right. I'm sorry.
**[21:27] Eri**
I'd better go.
**[21:33] Oz**
It's me, Oz.
**[21:36] Oz**
There's a high school girl running
down Gran Road from Section 6-2.
**[21:40] Oz**
She seems to have been
influenced by the terrorist.
**[21:43] Oz**
Seize her.
**[21:46] Oz**
I don't know.
**[21:48] Oz**
Let the National Security
Bureau handle the rest.
**[21:50] Oz**
She'll probably either be executed
or imprisoned for treason.
**[21:55] Intelligence Staff**
Chief Oz, there you are.
**[21:59] Intelligence Staff**
We've completed the final check.
**[22:02] Oz**
Then I'll head back now.
**[22:06] Oz**
Inspecting the disaster area
is pretty exhausting.

Could you please address
my transfer request soon?
**[22:22] Charmy**
If you don't, I'm contacting
the Labor Standards Office.
**[22:26] Charmy**
Overtime every day and a boss who abuses
their power and sexually harasses me.
**[22:29] Charmy**
Why is our department the one
with terrible working conditions?
**[22:33] Charmy**
Anyway, some unbelievable
analysis just came in.

**[22:38] Charmy**
If you could return right away, please.
**[22:42] Oz**
*What's the gist?*
**[22:44] Charmy**
Roger that.
**[22:48] Charmy**
The witch's apprentice's body...
**[22:51] Charmy**
is a fake.
