[00:08] Santa Maria
    Hold him down!
[00:10] Crystal Maya
    Hurry!
[00:15] Santa Maria
    Body temperature, heart rate,
    and blood pressure are rising.
[00:19] Santa Maria
    At this rate, his heart will...
[00:21] Dakya
    I knew a human wouldn't be able
    to withstand heterophase transfer.
[00:35] Ophelia
    You mustn't give up, everyone.
[00:38] All
    Madam Ophelia.
[00:47] Ophelia
    I'll return him to his senses
    by stimulating his brain.
[02:48] Adonis
    Ch-Chloe...
[03:06] (Flashback) Anna
    Duplication Magic: Death Cancel.
SIGN    Death Cancel
[03:12] (Flashback) Adonis
    Duplication?
[03:14] (Flashback) Adonis
    What's going on? I...
[03:21] (Flashback) Anna
    I am Anna.
[03:22] (Flashback) Anna
    I infiltrated this nation with Doroka.
[03:27] (Flashback) Anna
    It's all been part of the plan
[03:28] (Flashback) Anna
    to resurrect Chloe the witch.
[03:33] (Flashback) Anna
    We're getting you out of here.
[03:36] (Flashback) Adonis
    Who are you?
[03:38] (Flashback) Anna
    Questions later.
[03:40] (Flashback) Anna
    Send him, Madam Ophelia.
[03:47] (Flashback) Adonis
    What the...
[03:58] (Flashback) Anna
    I'm sorry, Doroka.
[04:14] Ophelia
    Thank you... for fighting for us.
[04:27] Adonis
    Who are you?
[04:31] Adonis
    I see. This is...
[04:37] Ophelia
    Yes. This is the nation of witches.
[04:49] All
    Look.
[04:50] All
    They're ripening.
[04:52] All
    Wow.
[04:59] Santa Maria
    Oh? You're already well enough
    to be up and about?
[05:08] Adonis
    Yeah.
[05:10] Crystal Maya
    I'm glad.
[05:11] Crystal Maya
    I'm sure Chloe would be sad
    if anything happened to you.
[05:17] Adonis
    You've met Chloe before?
[05:20] Santa Maria
    Of course.
[05:21] Santa Maria
    She was kind to us when we were little.
[05:24] Santa Maria
    We loved her.
[05:27] Adonis
    I see.
[05:47] Adonis
    Let me down. I can walk.
[05:52] Ophelia
    Human influence can't
    touch this secluded land.
[05:56] Ophelia
    The path you've taken to get here
    is far beyond what you can imagine.
[06:03] Ophelia
    Your body was placed under a lot of stress.
[06:15] Witch A
    Madam Ophelia.
[06:19] Witch A
    This season's harvest
    has been bountiful as well.
SIGN    Witch of Revelation
     Ophelia Clementine
[06:28] Adonis
    What did you do to me?
[06:31] (Flashback) Adonis
    What the...
[06:35] Ophelia
    I simply invited you here,
[06:40] Ophelia
    Adonis, apprentice of Chloe.
[06:43] Adonis
    You knew Chloe, too?
[06:46] Ophelia
    Of course.
[06:48] Ophelia
    There isn't a witch
    in this nation who doesn't.
[06:52] Ophelia
    She was stronger, smarter, more cheerful,
    and kinder than anyone else.
[06:58] Ophelia
    Though she used ice,
    she radiated warmth like the sun.
[07:06] Ophelia
    But she was cast out of the witches' nation.
[07:12] Adonis
    You mean you cast her out...
[07:16] Adonis
    for teaching magic to a human child.
[07:22] Ophelia
    So Chloe told you about that.
[07:26] Adonis
    No, but I figured it out.
[07:29] Adonis
    I spent a lot of time with her, after all
[07:34] Ohelia
    To witches, magic is
    irreplaceable. It's like our soul.
[07:39] Ophelia
    It represents the friendship and devotion
    God granted us in order to lead humankind.
[07:47] Ophelia
    It's not something a human
    should ever be taught.
[07:51] Ophelia
    Chloe took on a human apprentice.
[07:55] Ophelia
    We didn't understand her intentions,
[07:58] Ophelia
    but at the time, every witch begged
    her to abandon her apprentice and return.
[08:06] Ophelia
    But she had only one thing to say to us.
[08:11] (Flashback) Chloe
    Sorry.
[08:14] Ophelia
    That's certainly like her, isn't it?
[08:17] Adonis
    Have you finished reminiscing?
[08:20] Ophelia
    Yes.
[08:22] Ophelia
    You can have this back.
[08:28] Adonis
    My quill!
[08:32] Adonis
    You're in the way. Move.
[08:39] Adonis
    Give it back!
[08:43] Ophelia
    A magic-imbued phoenix feather with adornments
     resembling waves and a red dragon's eye.
[08:49] Ophelia
    Truly a masterpiece.
[08:58] Ophelia
    Chloe made this for you, didn't she?
[09:05] Adonis
    Who else?
[09:11] Adonis
    You said your name is Ophelia?
[09:15] Adonis
    Can you bring Chloe back from the dead?
[09:19] Ophelia
    Witches do not lie.
[09:23] Adonis
    I see.
[09:26] Adonis
    I see.
[09:34] Adonis
    What is that?
[09:38] Ophelia
    This secluded land is
    beyond the reach of humans.
[09:41] Ophelia
    It's a quiet celestial object.
[09:44] Ophelia
    We arrived here ten years ago,
[09:46] Ophelia
    and it became a place for witches
    to live peacefully once more.
[09:51] Ophelia
    The new witches' nation, Lunamilia.
SIGN    Lunamilia
[10:07] Ophelia
    Science revealed humankind's true nature.
[10:11] Ophelia
    Perhaps God created a spherical world
[10:14] Ophelia
    to keep them from seeing
     too far into the distance
[10:17] Ophelia
    because he feared for their future.
[10:22] Adonis
    There is no God.
[10:25] Adonis
    I won't abide it.
[10:30] Ophelia
    These are gravestones
    for the witches that died.
[10:43] Ophelia
    Humans are often constrained by expressions.
[10:49] Ophelia
    "It's always darkest before the dawn."
[10:52] Ophelia
    "The opposite of love is indifference."
[10:54] Ophelia
    But in reality,
[10:56] Ophelia
    the sky brightens as dawn approaches,
    and the opposite of love is obviously hate.
[11:05] Ophelia
    "Witches will corrupt humankind."
[11:09] Ophelia
    That is the expression
    the king of humans believed.
[11:32] Ophelia
    This is a mito, a tree
    that produces witches.
SIGN    Mito
[11:37] Ophelia
    You're a witch's apprentice.
    Have you seen one before?
[11:40] Adonis
    No, this is my first time
    seeing one in person.
[11:47] Adonis
    Chloe didn't like to talk about her origins.
[11:52] Ophelia
    Witches are unisex.
[11:55] Ophelia
    Unlike humans, we do not have mating pairs.
[11:59] Ophelia
    We receive life from these trees,
[12:02] Ophelia
    as fruits containing the power of God.
[12:06] Ophelia
    Mystical, isn't it?
[12:08] Adonis
    Whatever.
[12:10] Ophelia
    This is the last surviving tree brought
    here from the planet's surface.
[12:14] Ophelia
    Humans burned all the other mito.
[12:21] Ophelia
    Currently, this is the only tree
    that can birth and regenerate witches.
[12:27] Adonis
    Regenerate?
[12:30] Adonis
    Could it be?
[12:36] Adonis
    Is that...?
[12:45] Adonis
    Chloe.
[12:47] Adonis
    Is that Chloe?
[12:50] Ophelia
    No, that is still merely
    a witch waiting to be born.
[12:57] Ophelia
    She needs your strength to become Chloe.
[13:02] Adonis
    What do you mean?
[13:09] Ophelia
    Magic is the act of giving
    an individual's thoughts
[13:12] Ophelia
    a physical form in the material world.
[13:17] Ophelia
    The Written-Style Summoning Magic you use...
[13:20] Ophelia
    Depending on your proficiency, it can
    be used to give form to any and all thoughts.
[13:26] Ophelia
    In other words, it is versatile.
[13:33] Adonis
    Any and all thoughts...
[13:36] Ophelia
    Take memory, for example.
[13:38] Ophelia
    Memory is life itself.
[13:41] Ophelia
    If you could seal your memories
    of Chloe within that fruit, then perhaps...
[13:49] Ophelia
    I doubt I need to say more.
[13:52] Ophelia
    Either way, you are the key
    to Chloe's resurrection.
[13:59] Ophelia
    Please let me know when you're ready.
[14:02] Ophelia
    We'll begin the ceremony then.
[14:08] Adonis
    Seriously?
[14:14] Adonis
    My magic will resurrect Chloe.
[14:23] Adonis
    You're the witch who cast
    that duplication spell.
[14:27] Anna
    Don't you have something to say?
[14:32] Adonis
    What? You want me to thank you?
[14:37] Anna
    You can't be serious.
[14:39] Anna
    Doroka died for you.
[14:42] Adonis
    Not my problem.
[14:46] Adonis
    You planned all of this.
[14:49] Adonis
    Don't take your anger out on me.
[14:54] Anna
    What? Hey!
[14:56] Anna
    We're not done talking.
[14:58] Anna
    Wait.
[15:00] Anna
    Humans are so selfish.
[15:02] Anna
    I bet you think you're lucky that
    you can resurrect your beloved master
[15:06] Anna
    as many times as you want
    with your magic and this tree.
[15:12] Anna
    Why did we risk our lives
    for someone like you?
[15:20] Adonis
    Why?
[15:22] Adonis
    Isn't it so you could use Chloe?
[15:25] Adonis
    Isn't this the reason you saved me?
[15:32] Anna
    What are you talking about?
[15:34] Adonis
    Don't play dumb.
[15:39] (Flashback) Doroka
    Adonis, listen to me.
[15:43] (Flashback) Doroka
    The witches are planning to use Chloe.
[15:49] (Flashback) Doroka
    You and Chloe need to flee
    the witches' nation.
[16:01] Adonis
    The witches' nation...
[16:02] Adonis
    You can live in extreme environments
    without protective gear.
[16:06] Adonis
    You did not need to build
    such a grandiose facility.
[16:10] Adonis
    This place is a cage
    for you to keep humans in.
[16:16] Adonis
    You'll kidnap human slaves
    and kids using your heterophase transfer,
[16:22] Adonis
    teach them Written-Style Summoning
    Magic, and make them fight.
[16:26] Adonis
    Witches are on the verge of extinction.
[16:29] Adonis
    You need an alternative
    source of soldiers to win.
[16:32] (Flashback) Ophelia
    Chloe made this for you, didn't she?
[16:37] Adonis
    Only Chloe can make quills.
[16:40] Adonis
    That's why you want to
    resurrect her, isn't it?
[16:45] Adonis
    "Magic is the witches' soul."
[16:49] Adonis
    Yeah, right, you vixens.
[16:57] Anna
    W-Wait.
[16:59] Anna
    Wh-What are you going to do
    with that knowledge?
[17:04] Anna
    Help us.
[17:06] Anna
    I won't let Doroka's death be in vain.
[17:11] Adonis
    I'll still resurrect Chloe.
    That hasn't changed.
[17:14] Anna
    What?
[17:16] Adonis
    I simply follow her will. That's all.
[17:21] Adonis
    But if Chloe rejects you...
[17:26] Adonis
    then the witches are my enemies, too.
[17:29] Adonis
    That's all there is to it.
[17:42] Ophelia
    Let us begin.
[17:56] Ophelia
    You were brought here by our will.
[18:01] Ophelia
    But now, your will shall
    bring Chloe back to life.
[18:08] Adonis
    Yeah.
[18:22] Adonis
    Written-Style Summoning Magic:
[18:34] Adonis/Id
    Nostalgic Memories.
SIGN    Nostalgic Memories
[18:58] Adonis
    Chloe...
[19:04] (Flashback) Chloe
    And that's Farul, the witch's constellation.
[19:08] (Flashback) Chloe
    Look.
[19:09] (Flashback) Chloe
    When you connect that start and that star...
[19:11] (Flashback) Chloe
    See?
[19:14] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    Yeah, I know.
[19:16] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    It makes the beautiful face of the great
    Falulu, who kind of looks like you.
[19:21] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    I've heard this a million times.
    You don't look anything like her.
[19:24] (Flashback) Chloe
    You didn't need to say that.
[19:27] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    And that's the Sea Dragon Constellation.
[19:31] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    That's the Last Phoenix,
    and that's Claris, the giant of knowledge.
[19:36] (Flashback) Chloe
    Wow, you memorized all of them?
[19:40] (Flashback) Chloe
    That's crazy. Are you a divine prodigy?
[19:43] (Flashback) Chloe
    Since I taught you, does that make me a god?
[19:48] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    And that's the Adonis Constellation, right?
[19:54] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    The one you came up with.
[20:01] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    Chloe, you jerk!
[20:03] (Flashback) Chloe
    I-I remember.
[20:04] (Flashback) Chloe
    You connect those rainbow-colored
    stars like this, right?
[20:09] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    That's totally wrong. It's over there.
[20:11] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    You really didn't put any thought into it.
[20:14] (Flashback) Chloe
    That's not true.
[20:19] Adonis/Id
    I wouldn't trade the time
    I spent with you for anything.
[20:25] Adonis/Id
    Thinking about it now feels like a dream.
[20:31] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    Chloe. Chloe.
[20:35] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    You always leave your clothes lying around.
[20:38] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    I thought witches were
    supposed to be a noble species.
[20:42] (Flashback) Chloe
    Sorry, Adonis. You can leave those there.
[20:46] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    It's fine. I'll put them away.
[20:59] (Flashback) Chloe
    Adonis, you shouldn't spy on bathing ladies.
[21:07] (Flashback) Chloe
    You're such a precocious boy.
[21:09] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    What? No, I'm not.
[21:11] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    I-I was just worried you
    might've stayed in too long.
[21:19] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    I-I'm gonna go stand watch.
[21:25] (Flashback) Young Adonis
    I know we haven't bathed in a while, but our
    pursuers might show up, so don't take too long.
[21:34] (Flashback) Chloe
    Thank you.
[21:37] (Flashback) Chloe
    For staying with me.
[21:40] (Flashback) Chloe
    If you hadn't been here, I...
[21:45] (Flashback) Chloe
    I can't live in this world alone.
[21:57] Adonis
    Me neither, Chloe.
[22:16] Adonis
    I love you, so...
[22:23] Chloe
    Thank you.
