[00:02] Noel
    Okay, what now?
[00:05] Noel
    He's involved with the d'Alemberts,
    but he's running from them.
[00:11] Noel
    I wouldn't be crossing them
    even if I went ahead and offed this guy.
[00:15] Noel
    And once this guy's out of the picture...
[00:22] Noel
    He'll be mine.
[00:32] Noel
    You have ten seconds to
    get out of my sight. If you don't,
[00:37] Noel
    you're dead.
[00:38] Noel
    Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven.
[00:39] Miguel
    E-Eek!
[00:42] Noel
    Six.
[00:42] Miguel
    Koga, get your ass up! We're outta here!
[00:46] Noel
    What a fool.
[00:49] Noel
    With your talents, you could easily
    kill your oppressor and be free.
[00:56] Noel
    It's not a half-dead cur I want...
[01:00] Noel
    It's a fierce wolf.
[01:03] Noel
    You disappoint me.
[02:37] Lycia
    Yoo-hoo!
[02:38] Lycia
    Over here!
[02:40] Noel
    Lycia? What are you doing here?
[02:43] Lycia
    Thanks for lunch, Noel!
[02:46] Noel
    Who said I was paying?
[02:48] Lycia
    What? Don't be a cheapskate.
[02:50] Lycia
    You run off in the middle of
    your date and you don't even apologize?
[02:54] Alma
    You took way too long, Noel.
[02:57] Alma
    If Lycia hadn't showed up,
    I would've had to eat all by my lonesome.
[03:03] Noel
    Fine. Lunch is on me.
[03:05] Noel
    But it's not happening again.
[03:07] Lycia
    Yay!
[03:10] Lycia
    By the way, Noel...
[03:12] Lycia
    Find any promising new recruits?
[03:15] Noel
    Huh?
[03:16] Lycia
    You were taking so long,
    we thought you were out headhunting.
[03:21] Alma
    Well?
[03:28] Noel
    Nope. Not at all.
[03:30] Noel
    I can't seem to find anyone
     I'd want on our team.
[03:34] Noel
    Besides, I stepped away for something else.
[03:36] Lycia
    And what was that?
[03:39] Noel
    Do you know about the nasty drug
    doing the rounds lately?
[03:44] Lycia
    Yeah, I think I've heard rumors.
[03:46] Lycia
    What about it?
[03:48] Noel
    Apparently it gives a great high
    but also makes you go berserk.
[03:52] Lycia
    What? That sounds pretty bad...
[03:55] Noel
    Yeah, and the people pushing it
    are going unchecked.
[03:59] Noel
    Be careful out there,
    and tell Wolf to do the same.
[04:03] Noel
    What?
[04:05] Lycia
    It's just... kinda unusual
     for you to be worrying about us.
[04:11] Noel
    I'm not.
[04:12] Noel
    I'm only sharing intel as a colleague.
[04:15] Lycia
    Okay, if you say so.
[04:18] Lycia
    I should get going.
    It's almost time for work.
[04:20] Lycia
    Thanks for the meal, Noel.
[04:22] Noel
    Sure.
[04:23] Lycia
    Let's grab tea again, Alma!
[04:25] Lycia
    I know a cafe that has the tastiest desserts!
[04:28] Lycia
    I'll take you there sometime.
[04:31] Alma
    You sure?
[04:32] Lycia
    Yeah, let's hang!
[04:33] Lycia
    Not as colleagues, but as friends.
[04:38] Alma
    Friends...
[04:40] Lycia
    Er, is that too much?
[04:42] Alma
    Not at all! We're BFFs now!
[04:45] Lycia
    Whoa, BFFs! I like that!
[04:48] Lycia
    How about you, Noel?
[04:49] Noel
    Go on already. You'll be late.
[04:55] Noel
    If Lycia's heard of it,
    even only in passing,
[05:00] Noel
    maybe they've started distributing
    outside of Gambino territory too.
[05:06] Noel
    I hope this doesn't spell trouble.
[05:10] Miguel
    Oh boy, this is bad.
[05:13] Albert
    Not a smart move, Miguel.
[05:15] Albert
    Why'd you think you could
    make off with family money?
[05:18] Albert
    Should've known that wouldn't fly.
[05:20] Albert
    Did you honestly believe
     you could escape if you fled to Etrai?
[05:25] Albert
    The d'Alemberts put out this wanted poster.
[05:27] Albert
    They asked Don Luciano to turn you in
    the instant someone found you.
[05:32] Miguel
    Of all the people to get caught by...
[05:34] Miguel
    It just had to be Albert Gambino,
[05:39] Miguel
    the guy they call the ultimate wacko,
    a real scumbag, and a walking disaster.
[05:46] Albert
    Now, we Gambinos have successfully
    apprehended you, you little traitor...
[05:52] Albert
    But, frankly, I don't see the fun
    in just handing you over.
[05:58] Miguel
    How do you mean?
[06:01] Albert
    I mean, why should I do a puny peasant
    gang like the d'Alemberts any favors?
[06:08] Miguel
    Y-You're absolutely right!
[06:11] Miguel
    People call you the rising star
    of the illustrious Luciano family!
[06:16] Miguel
    You should never have to take orders
     from the d'Alemberts! Ever!
[06:21] Albert
    You know what's up, halfling!
[06:23] Albert
    You were wasted on the d'Alemberts.
[06:26] Miguel
    Y-You mean it?
    In that case, I'd be honored to—
[06:30] Albert
    So how about this?
[06:33] Albert
    We'll return you and your slave
     as stuffed toys!
[06:37] Miguel
    Huh? Stuffed... toys?
[06:41] Albert
    Yep, stuffed toys.
[06:43] Albert
    We'll skin you alive,
[06:45] Albert
    process your innards into ham and sausages,
    and send the lot to the d'Alemberts.
[06:50] Albert
    They'll be so surprised! What fun!
[06:53] Albert
    Isn't that a wonderful idea, Miguel?
[06:57] Miguel
    Hang on, hang on, hang on!
    Where'd that come from?!
[07:00] Miguel
    Talk about a brutal joke—
[07:02] Albert
    Oh, I'm not joking.
[07:04] Albert
    I'm dead serious!
[07:06] Albert
    Okay, Laios, make the preparations.
[07:10] Laios
    Understood.
[07:11] Miguel
    N-No way!
[07:13] Koga
    Skinned alive and stuffed, eh?
[07:17] Koga
    Came all this way from home
    just to die like that.
[07:21] Koga
    But, ah well, at least now...
[07:27] Koga
    it'll all be over.
[07:31] Henchman
    Boss, I've brought an overdue debtor.
[07:35] Henchman
    The mayor of Mintz Village.
[07:43] Albert
    I see.
[07:45] Albert
    So you had the money ready,
[07:48] Albert
    but then this Seeker name Noel Stollen
    took everything you had?
[07:53] Mayor
    That's right! I resisted with all my might!
[07:57] Mayor
    But he had my wife and daughter hostage,
    then gouged out my right eye!
[08:02] Mayor
    I had no choice but to fork over the money!
[08:06] Albert
    Oh?
[08:07] Mayor
    And that's not all! Noel Stollen also said...
[08:12] Mayor
    "You're better off throwing this money away
    than giving it to the weak-ass Gambino family,
[08:17] Mayor
    so I'll take it off your hands!"
[08:20] Albert
    A weak-ass family, are we?
[08:23] Albert
    Wow, that's harsh.
    We're doing our best over here.
[08:28] Mayor
    He mocked and disparaged
    the great Gambino family!
[08:32] Mayor
    You must visit justice upon that corrupt
    Seeker and defend your family's honor!
[08:38] Albert
    Okay, okay.
[08:40] Albert
    I'll "visit justice" upon
     this Seeker, Noel Stollen.
[08:45] Albert
    And I'll wait for your payment.
[08:47] Mayor
    Th-Thank you! Thank you so much!
[08:50] Albert
    Okay, now that that's settled,
    it's time for you to make things right.
[08:54] Mayor
    Huh?
[08:55] Albert
    Whatever your reasons,
    you went back on your word to us.
[09:01] Albert
    So you gotta make things right.
[09:04] Mayor
    M-M-Maybe so, but how? I don't...
[09:07] Albert
    You don't have any money? Then let's see...
[09:12] Albert
    I'll have your right arm.
[09:15] Albert
    The Seeker took your right eye,
    and I'll take your right arm!
[09:24] Albert
    Hey, you there.
[09:27] Albert
    You're a Longswordsman, aren't you?
[09:30] Albert
    A combat class that can cut cleaner
    than even a Swordsman, yeah?
[09:37] Albert
    In that case, lop off his right arm
    with that stick he's got.
[09:47] Miguel
    What're you sittin' around for, Koga?!
[09:50] Miguel
    Don Albert gave you an order! Get to it!
[09:54] Albert
    Oh, give me a sec.
[10:05] Albert
    Yeah, that's great! That's the stuff!
[10:10] Albert
    I've gotta get some in me
    before I enjoy some violence!
[10:13] Albert
    Man, it's incredible!
[10:16] Albert
    Okay, I'm ready. Cut his arm off!
[10:21] Mayor
    N-No way you can do it with that stick.
[10:37] Mayor
    Gah! M-My arm...
[10:41] Mayor
    My arm!
[10:42] Albert
    Whoa, way to go! I like you!
[10:45] Miguel
    You've got a keen eye, Don Albert!
[10:48] Miguel
    From the Far Eastern island nation
     of the Land of Vajra,
[10:52] Miguel
    he's a swordfighter I lovingly
    developed with all my expertise!
[10:55] Miguel
    He was the undefeated champion
    of my fighting ring, even!
[10:59] Miguel
    If you like, I could offer him to you...
[11:03] Albert
    Okay, it's decided! 
    Starting today, you're my slave!
[11:15] Koga
    From the moment I was born,
    I've been unwanted by all.
[11:22] Koga
    My father was a successful merchant,
    and my mother a beautiful woman.
[11:27] Koga
    Living a life of luxury,
[11:29] Koga
    the happy couple only wanted for one thing...
[11:34] (Flashback) Kogamom
    Please bless us with a child.
[11:37] (Flashback) Kogadad
    An heir to the Tsukishima name.
[11:41] (Flashback) Kogamom
    No!
[11:44] (Flashback) Kogadad
    Honey!
[11:56] (Flashback) Kogadad
    Honey! Are you hurt?!
[12:01] (Flashback) Kogamom
    I'm so sorry, dear...
[12:03] (Flashback) Kogamom
    I'm sorry... I'm sorry...
[12:08] Koga
    After that, my mother's mental
    state deteriorated, and...
[12:16] (Flashback) Midwife
    Congratulations, sir!
[12:19] (Flashback) Midwife
    The Tsukishima family has its heir,
[12:20] (Flashback) Midwife
    a healthy young boy.
[12:28] (Flashback) Kogamom
    There, there.
[12:30] (Flashback) Kogamom
    Dear.
[12:32] (Flashback) Kogamom
    Look, Koga, it's your father.
[12:37] (Flashback) Kogadad
    Am I really?
[12:40] (Flashback) Kogadad
    Is that thing really my son?
[13:06] Koga
    That night, my mother took her own life.
[13:11] Koga
    And ever after...
[13:20] (Flashback) Y. Koga
    Father!
[13:21] (Flashback) Y. Koga
    I've brought your sake!
[13:25] (Flashback) Kogadad
    Don't call me that! You...
[13:27] (Flashback) Kogadad
    You filthy plague!
[13:33] (Flashback) Servant1
    The lady of the house left
    such a loathsome parting gift...
[13:37] (Flashback) Servant2
    The least she could've done
    was take the lad with her.
[13:42] Koga
    A cursed child nobody wanted.
[13:48] Koga
    That's what I was.
[13:51] Sign
    The Price of Honor
[14:00] Koga
    I woke up one morning
    on a boat for some reason.
[14:08] Koga
    It didn't take me long to realize
    that I'd been sold into slavery.
[14:17] (Flashback) Miguel
    Chin up, boy!
[14:22] (Flashback) Miguel
    I'm Miguel.
[14:24] (Flashback) Miguel
    As of today, I'm your master.
[14:38] (Flashback) Miguel
    Koga!
[14:41] (Flashback) Miguel
    Well done! You did great, my boy!
[14:45] (Flashback) Koga
    A-Are you praising me?
[14:48] (Flashback) Miguel
    Duh, of course! After all, you won!
[14:54] Koga
    That was the first time
    I'd ever been praised in all my life...
[14:58] Koga
    The first time anyone acknowledged me.
[15:01] Koga
    "All I need to do is win."
[15:03] (Flashback) Miguel
    A winning streak! Talk about
    a stroke of good fortune!
[15:07] (Flashback) Miguel
    Koga, you may well be my golden goose!
[15:13] (Flashback) Y. Koga
    A slave can never be more than that, huh?
[15:19] Laios
    Are you ready?
[15:23] Koga
    Aye.
[15:30] Noel
    Why'd you call me here out of the blue, Loki?
[15:34] Loki
    You always pay well, boss,
    so I figured I'd do you a favor.
[15:40] Loki
    The Gambino family is after your life.
[15:46] Noel
    So they believed the mayor of Mintz Village
    and now they're coming for me?
[15:52] Noel
    Ridiculous. First the drug stuff, now this.
[15:55] Noel
    They must be insane.
[15:57] Loki
    Right? Listen, their boss,
    Albert Gambino, is a genuine lunatic.
[16:02] Loki
    Don't bother trying to figure him out.
[16:04] Noel
    I hear the last boss was a fine man.
    Why pick this guy as his successor?
[16:09] Loki
    Probably because he only had the one son.
[16:12] Loki
    What's more, Albert was a bastard.
[16:16] Loki
    The boss took him in as an adult.
[16:19] Noel
    Makes sense.
[16:21] Noel
    Wait, does that mean...
[16:27] Noel
    That aura...
[16:28] Noel
    Someone armed is approaching.
[16:31] Noel
    Loki... did you sell me out?
[16:37] Loki
    Sorry, boss.
[16:39] Noel
    It's not very professional
    for a broker to entrap a customer.
[16:43] Loki
    I get that, but I value my life.
    Plus, I got paid handsomely.
[16:49] Loki
    I'll use the money to start over
     in another country.
[16:54] Noel
    I see. But your plan fails
    to account for one thing.
[17:01] Noel
    There's no reason for me not to kill you.
[17:05] Noel
    It's too bad.
[17:07] Noel
    I didn't dislike you.
[17:10] Loki
    Fancy that.
[17:12] Loki
    The feeling's mutual.
[17:14] Noel
    What happened to valuing your life?
[17:16] Loki
    I do, but it hit me just now.
[17:20] Loki
    I didn't just sell you out...
[17:22] Loki
    I sold my pride and honor
     as an information broker.
[17:36] Noel
    Get lost. I'll overlook what happened here.
[17:40] Noel
    Oh, and you don't have to leave the capital.
[17:44] Noel
    Because I'm going to crush the Gambino family.
[17:48] Noel
    You can reclaim your pride here at home.
[17:58] Loki
    Boss, you're crazy, man.
[18:01] Noel
    Beat it already.
[18:02] Noel
    You're in the way of the fight.
[18:04] Loki
    I owe you one.
[18:09] Noel
    This battle stimulant potion...
[18:11] Noel
    It'll last for ten minutes.
[18:13] Noel
    The aftereffects suck,
    but it boosts my prowess big-time.
[18:19] Noel
    They're here.
[18:24] Koga
    You're Noel Stollen?
[18:28] Noel
    Yeah, I'm the Seeker you're after.
[18:32] Noel
    Didn't expect you to be the Gambinos' hitman.
[18:35] Noel
    Congrats. You've moved up in life.
[18:38] Noel
    You've jumped ship to a better owner.
[18:41] Koga
    None of yer business!
[18:44] Noel
    Whatever.
[18:45] Noel
    There'll be no interruptions this time.
[18:47] Noel
    Let's pick up where we left off.
[18:52] Noel
    Why won't you draw your sword?
[18:55] Koga
    To tell the truth, I don't wanna fight ya.
[18:59] Koga
    I owe you for that silver coin.
[19:10] Noel
    So you'll let me go?
[19:12] Noel
    Big talk for a mafia lapdog.
[19:15] Koga
    True, I can't defy the don's orders...
[19:19] Koga
    But I still have my pride and honor.
[19:24] Koga
    The name's Koga Tsukishima!
    I'm a C-rank Longswordsman!
[19:28] Koga
    I specialize in slash attacks!
    Remember that!
[19:33] Noel
    Did he just reveal his hand?
[19:36] Noel
    All to make this a fair fight?
[19:39] Noel
    Is this guy stupid?
[19:42] Noel
    Still...
[19:44] Noel
    When someone introduces themselves,
    it's only polite to return the favor.
[19:47] Noel
    I'm Noel Stollen, Talker!
[19:50] Noel
    I can use skills without
    expending my mana reserves!
[19:54] Noel
    Also, I've inherited the will
    and techniques of the great Overdeath!
[20:00] Noel
    Now!
[20:01] Koga
    It's on!
[20:09] Noel
    His speed and skill have
    improved by leaps and bounds.
[20:12] Noel
    So this is what he can do at full strength...
[20:15] Noel
    Flame Bullet!
[20:19] Koga
    Wh-What the?!
[20:22] Noel
    I don't know what Longswordsmen
    are resistant to,
[20:24] Noel
    but any armed frontline class
    should be vulnerable to fire.
[20:28] Noel
    This might not kill him,
    but it'll still hurt him bad.
[20:33] Noel
    Victory is mine.
[20:37] Noel
    The fire from magic bullets
    can't be put out with a slash!
[20:40] Noel
    Did he cut the air itself to create a vacuum?!
[20:59] Koga
    H-Hey! No aiming for the family jewels!
[21:04] Koga
    Stop fightin' like a cheat!
[21:06] Noel
    A cheat? Are you daft?
[21:09] Noel
    We're dueling for our lives here.
[21:11] Noel
    Eye rakes, low blows, biting...
[21:15] Noel
    Anything goes!
[21:17] Koga
    A flash?!
[21:19] Noel
    Gotcha!
[21:21] Koga
    Dance...
[21:22] Koga
    Secret Blade: Tsubame Gaeshi!
[21:34] Noel
    He can freeze his slashes in the air
    and release them when he wants?
[21:38] Noel
    Is that what he meant
    about specializing in slash attacks?!
[21:43] Koga
    There!
[21:48] Noel
    Crap!
[21:49] Koga
    I ain't done!
