[00:07] Reflejo
    Good work.
[00:08] Reflejo
    Keeping you on the team was the right choice.
[00:13] Cassano
    What about "it"?
[00:14] Reflejo
    It's ready.
[00:16] Reflejo
    But boarding the Archimedes will
    require you to forfeit the match.
[00:22] Cassano
    That's fine.
[00:23] Cassano
    Once it's mine, I have no more
    business with you people.
[00:27] Reflejo
    What do you want?
[00:30] Cassano
    To destroy everything. That's all.
[00:34] Cassano
    Including you and Jue Viole Grace.

[02:22] Rak
    I'm glad you're back, black turtle!
[02:25] Viole
    Rak!
[02:26] Rak
    Welcome back, you jerk!
[02:30] Rak
    The three of us are back together again!
[02:37] Shibisu
    Those guys...
[02:38] Shibisu
    So the ultimate team is back together.
[02:42] Shibisu
    We'll have to do some serious work now.
[02:44] Rak
    You're my prey, you got that?
[02:47] Rak
    Don't ever run away again!
[02:51] Rak
    All that's left is to defeat FUG!
[02:53] Rak
    Follow me, everyone!
[02:57] Akraptor
    What are you staring at?
[03:01] Yihwa
    Nothing.
[03:03] Yihwa
    Just realizing for the first time that
    he can make a face like that, too.
[03:03] Rak
    You grew out your hair.
[03:05] Rak
    You're the long black turtle now.
[03:11] Viole
    Akraptor.
[03:12] Akraptor
    Hey, Viole. I'm glad you made it back.
[03:16] Viole
    Thanks to all of you.
[03:19] Akraptor
    We didn't do anything.
[03:22] Akraptor
    Anyway, where's Horyang?
[03:23] Viole
    He's still in the final arena.
[03:26] Viole
    I'm sorry. I came here alone.
[03:29] Akraptor
    Don't worry too much.
[03:32] Akraptor
    He'll make it out just fine.
[03:34] Viole
    How's Wangnan?
[03:37] Akraptor
    Thankfully, there was a treatment
    facility on the floating ship,
[03:40] Akraptor
    so he should pull through.
[03:42] Akraptor
    That Lero Ro guy is taking care of him.
[03:45] Akraptor
    It's a miracle he's alive with that injury,
[03:48] Akraptor
    but I'm really glad we won't have
    to regret letting him live.
[03:58] Viole
    Sophia.
[04:01] Viole
    Is Beta all right?
[04:03] Sophia
    Barely.
[04:04] Sophia
    But now that the order's been
    given to dispose of him...
[04:09] Sophia
    This boy wouldn't have been so
    unhappy if I'd been stronger.
[04:15] Viole
    I disagree.
[04:18] Viole
    I don't think Cassano, Horyang, and
    Beta were necessarily only unhappy.
[04:25] Yihwa
    Since we're at a shop,
    why don't you buy a new spear?
[04:29] Rak
    You gonna buy me one?
[04:31] Yihwa
    Well, I've got plenty of points...
[04:34] Shibisu
    What are you still worried about?
[04:38] Shibisu
    We're still in the tournament,
    and Bam's back.
[04:42] Aguero
    The true climax is still to come.
[04:45] Aguero
    Setting aside the tournament, there are
    FUG Rankers waiting for us on that ship.
[04:50] Aguero
    We've made an enemy of the Workshop, too.
[04:54] Aguero
    We don't have a way to get out of here.
[04:57] Shibisu
    Also, what's gonna happen
    with the tournament?
[04:59] Shibisu
    I wonder why the hosts suddenly
    went inside the Archimedes.
[05:03] Lero Ro
    The tournament will probably
    be put on hold for a while.
[05:07] Shibisu
    Ro.
[05:10] Shibisu
    What do you mean?
[05:12] Lero Ro
    There seems to be trouble above.
[05:16] Io
    What?!
[05:17] Io
    The door to Emily's hangar was destroyed?!
[05:20] Punk
    Yeah. If any of the fugitives approach Emily...
[05:24] Punk
    We have to stop that from
    happening, no matter what!
[05:26] Punk
    Without the audience noticing!
[05:29] Io
    The game is on hold.
[05:32] Io
    At this rate, the real one
    might be allowed to escape.
[05:36] Lero Ro
    My allies should be arriving in the
    participant waiting room shortly.
[05:41] Shibisu
    Huh? Allies? What are they
    doing in the waiting room?
[05:45] Lero Ro
    We're going to use the summoning system
[05:47] Lero Ro
    in the waiting room to
    bring your allies here.
[05:52] Lero Ro
    We'll connect the portal in the waiting
    room to the portal on the ship I rode here
[05:58] Lero Ro
    to hijack them.
[06:01] Lero Ro
    By the way, your allies who
    dropped out of the tournament
[06:04] Lero Ro
    are already aboard the floating ship.
[06:06] Aguero
    Huh?
[06:09] Punk
    We have an announcement.
[06:11] Punk
    We've received word that fugitives
    have snuck aboard the ship.
[06:15] Punk
    For your safety, please evacuate
    to the nearby building.
[06:19] Punk
    The final is postponed.
[06:21] Punk
    We'll notify you of the
    new time at a later date.
[06:24] Madoraco/Id
    I didn't expect them to try
    to escape during the match.
[06:28] Madoraco/Id
    We can't avoid the loss,
    but we should probably act, as well.
[06:34] Follower
    Mr. Madoraco, we've received
    a message from the arena.
[06:39] Madoraco
    A message?
[06:41] Aguero
    What?! We're going to
    escape before the final?
[06:44] Lero Ro
    Yes. Now that we've rescued Bam,
    there's no reason to stay any longer.
[06:51] Aguero
    But where are we going to go?
[06:54] Lero Ro
    There's a Wolhaiksong floating
    ship waiting not far from here.
[07:00] Shibisu
    Wolhaiksong?
[07:02] Shibisu
    How'd you get those shady guys to help us?
[07:04] Lero Ro
    Bam, you met Urek Mazino
    a few years ago, didn't you?
[07:09] Viole
    Yes.
[07:10] Shibisu
    What?! Seriously?
[07:12] Shibisu
    You mean the Tower's strongest man,
    that Urek Mazino?
[07:16] Lero Ro
    Yes. He's currently the
    highest-ranked active Ranker.
[07:22] Lero Ro
    Powerful enough to take
    on the Ten Families alone,
[07:26] Lero Ro
    he's one of the founding
    members of Wolhaiksong.
[07:30] Lero Ro
    And like you, he's an Irregular.
[07:35] Lero Ro
    He's interested in you and wants to meet you.
[07:39] Lero Ro
    That's also the reason I came here.
[07:43] Viole
    But the others...
[07:49] Viole
    Hwaryun! Did you escape?
[07:52] Reflejo
    You managed to escape quite easily,
    Jue Viole Grace.
[07:59] Viole
    Reflejo...
[08:01] Reflejo
    But in your haste, you left your Guide behind.
[08:07] Viole
    Reflejo! What did you do to Hwaryun?
[08:10] Reflejo
    I simply gave her a little special attention.
[08:14] Reflejo
    But if you don't come to save them,
[08:18] Reflejo
    the three you left behind will suffer
    unimaginably before they die.
[08:27] Reflejo
    Now, let the final begin.
[08:31] Reflejo
    If you successfully rescue your three allies
    from three different locations, you win.
[08:39] Reflejo
    If I lose, I will gracefully forfeit the match.
[08:44] Reflejo
    I will be waiting for you where
    the Thorn was, Jue Viole Grace.
[08:52] Mei
    Will Viole really come?
[08:56] Reflejo
    He will.
[08:57] Reflejo
    He's chosen the path of a Slayer Candidate
    for seven years to protect his friends.
[09:04] Reflejo
    There's no way he won't come.
[09:07] Viole
    I'm going to save them.
[09:09] Shibisu
    Wait. There's no doubt that this is a trap.
[09:12] Shibisu
    If you go there...
[09:15] Viole
    I'm going anyway.
[09:16] Viole
    This is a problem I have to fix.
[09:20] Shibisu
    But Bam, you might not
    make it back this time.
[09:24] Viole
    That's fine. I'm still going.
[09:26] Shibisu
    But...
[09:28] Aguero
    You haven't changed a bit.
[09:31] Aguero
    Okay. The three of us
    will go rescue Hwaryun.
[09:35] Aguero
    You guys save the other two.
[09:38] Viole
    Khun?
[09:39] Aguero
    Ro, how long can you wait?
[09:42] Lero Ro
    I can't guarantee it,
    but probably about 30 minutes.
[09:46] Aguero
    That's barely enough time.
[09:48] Aguero
    If we're not back in 30 minutes,
    take everyone who's here and go.
[09:54] Shibisu
    Khun!
[09:56] Aguero
    This works out great.
[09:58] Aguero
    Let's take care of FUG
    and win before we escape.
[10:02] Viole
    Khun, I'm doing this alone.
[10:05] Aguero
    I finally got to see you again.
    I'm not letting you go alone.
[10:09] Viole
    But there's no time.
[10:10] Aguero
    It's okay. If Shibisu is still
    here because of an error,
[10:13] Aguero
    then she should show up soon, too.
[10:18] Aguero
    She's here.
[10:21] Endorsi
    I told you to summon me right away,
    but you were taking forever.
[10:36] Endorsi
    You're all useless.
[10:39] Endorsi
    My makeup came off because of you.
[10:43] Endorsi
    You finally summoned me, and now what?
[10:46] Endorsi
    What is this dreadful situation?
[10:50] Mei
    Oh! Princess?
[10:54] Endorsi
    Honestly, when are we
    going to go on our date?
[11:09] Quant
    What? The final? What's going on?
[11:13] Quant
    You said we'd get out of
    here before the final!
[11:16] Quant
    Hey, Ro! Are you stupid?
[11:20] Chang
    Hey, mister. When are we getting out of here?
[11:24] Miseng
    You're scaring me.
[11:26] Prince
    Hey, scumbag! You tricked us, didn't you?
[11:30] Chang
    Oh, shut up! Keep your mouth shut!
[11:31] Prince
    What was that, scumbag?!
[11:34] Quant
    Damn it! Why did I follow him here?
[11:40] Quant
    Get me out of here!
[11:45] Hatzling
    Thirty minutes?
[11:47] Lero Ro
    Yes, please.
[11:49] Hatzling
    Fine, but any longer and
    we'll catch their attention.
[11:54] Hatzling
    We're transporting at exactly 30 minutes.
[11:57] Lero Ro
    Understood.
[11:59] Sophia
    Um, excuse me...
[12:01] Sophia
    Please take Beta with you.
[12:05] Lero Ro
    Huh?
[12:06] Sophia
    He'll just be disposed of if
    he returns to the Workshop.
[12:11] Sophia
    I want him to live freely,
    even if it's just for a short while.
[12:15] Lero Ro
    But without his medicine...
[12:17] Sophia
    The medicine should last him for a month.
[12:21] Sophia
    Like him, I'm an illegitimate
    child from the Middle Area.
[12:25] Sophia
    I was fortunate that I became
    a Workshop researcher.
[12:29] Sophia
    Since becoming a researcher,
    I've wondered if I can do anything for kids
[12:32] Sophia
    who grew up under the same circumstances.
[12:35] Sophia
    That's why I participated in that experiment.
[12:38] Sophia
    If it succeeded and all the abandoned
    illegitimate children became stronger,
[12:42] Sophia
    no one would be able to hurt them.
[12:45] Sophia
    When I saw the children who
    returned to the Workshop stronger,
[12:48] Sophia
    I thought I had been right, but...
[12:52] Viole
    I disagree.
[12:55] Viole
    Horyang...
[12:56] Viole
    No, Ilmar kept thinking
    of the name you gave him
[13:01] Viole
    to endure the terrible pain he
    suffered during the experiments.
[13:07] Viole
    It's what kept him from losing himself.
[13:12] Viole
    That was enough for them to be happy.
[13:15] Sophia
    I had no idea what those
    children needed to be happy.
[13:24] Sophia
    Please.
[13:25] Sophia
    This boy, Ilmar, Cassano,
    and that boy named Viole...
[13:31] Sophia
    Please help them all escape
    so they can find some happiness.
[13:38] Lero Ro
    Very well. I'll do what I can.
[13:43] Beta
    Beniamino Cassano...
[13:49] Beta
    It's him.
[13:51] Sophia
    Beta?
[13:52] Beta
    He's the one who was controlling everything.
[13:56] Beta
    But why?
[13:59] Beta
    Why did he save me from that place?
[14:08] Beta
    Why?
[14:12] Mei
    What are you doing here, princess?
[14:16] Mei
    Where's Viole?
[14:17] Endorsi
    Could you not casually drop my
    boyfriend's name? It's annoying.
[14:22] Mei
    What? No way! You have a boyfriend?
[14:26] Endorsi
    It just kind of happened.
[14:28] Endorsi
    We're supposed to go on a date now.
[14:30] Endorsi
    Sorry, but could you get out of here?
[14:32] Mei
    A Princess of Jahad going on a date?
[14:35] Mei
    Won't you be killed if you're found out?
[14:38] Mei
    Just like Anaak's mommy.
[14:42] Hatz
    Endorsi!
[14:47] Endorsi
    Ugh, what? Is this your bodyguard?
[14:54] Varagarv
    You're in quite the hurry
    to die, Princess of Jahad.
[15:02] Viole
    Hwaryun! Hwaryun!
[15:04] Reflejo
    She's alive.
[15:08] Reflejo
    Just barely.
[15:11] Reflejo
    I knew you would come, Viole.
[15:16] Aguero
    What's with that guy? His body...
[15:19] Rak
    Some kind of smoke is coming out of him.
[15:23] Aguero
    So he was hiding his strength.
[15:26] Viole
    If you wanted to lure me here,
    you didn't need to do all this!
[15:31] Reflejo
    You must be disciplined harshly.
[15:34] Reflejo
    But perhaps I did go too far this time.
[15:38] Viole
    You meant to kill her from the start!
[15:43] Reflejo
    Shall we begin the finale?
[15:51] Hatz
    He damaged Endorsi without touching her?
[16:19] Endorsi
    What's his problem? My clothes are ruined.
[16:23] Mei
    Varagarv is the strongest
    E-Rank Fighting Dog,
[16:26] Mei
    combining the blood of multiple families.
[16:29] Mei
    You think you can beat us?
[16:31] Endorsi
    You're challenging me to a fight?
[16:34] Endorsi
    You must be out of your mind.
[16:38] Yihwa
    Horyang! Where are you?
[16:42] Yihwa
    Horyang!
[16:43] Yihwa
    Hurry up!
[16:45] Yihwa
    Do you want Goseng to be all alone?
[16:47] Akraptor
    Give me a break!
[16:49] Akraptor
    I'm not a member of the Ten Families, okay?
[16:54] Quaetro
    Hey.
[16:55] Yihwa
    Did you find anyone, weirdo?
[16:57] Quaetro
    Nope, nobody.
[16:58] Yihwa
    Oh, come on! Where are you, Horyang?!
[17:04] Aguero
    You're no ordinary E-Rank Regular, are you?
[17:07] Reflejo
    Correct. I am one of Poken's shadows.
[17:13] Viole
    Poken?
[17:14] Reflejo
    If I so desire, I can exert
    power greater than a B-Rank.
[17:20] Aguero
    That's impossible!
[17:21] Reflejo
    Give up.
[17:24] Reflejo
    In your current state, you cannot beat me.
[17:27] Viole
    No!
[17:29] Viole
    I don't want to give up on myself anymore!
[17:32] Reflejo
    Then you leave me with no choice.
[17:37] Aguero
    Bam!
[17:38] Viole
    I know.
[17:40] Rak
    Damn smoke turtle!
[17:53] Aguero
    He didn't even flinch. But...
[17:59] Viole
    We're taking Hwaryun back!
[18:08] Madoraco
    We got good information out of that man.
[18:12] Follower
    Was it all right for him to take that?
[18:16] Madoraco
    It's fine. Deals must always be fair.
[18:21] Madoraco
    There's no need for us to
    continue dealing with a fool
[18:24] Madoraco
    who left his party out of fear.
[18:28] Madoraco
    Prepare the solution.
[18:30] Madoraco
    The time has come to end the Workshop Battle.
[18:34] Fugitive
    No! Let me see Emily!
[18:38] Guard
    Shut up!
[18:39] Traveler
    I won't be able to get in through here.
[18:39] Fugitive
    She tricked me!
[18:41] Traveler
    Is there some other way in?
[18:41] Guard
    You're not making any sense!
[18:47] Traveler
    It's so tight...
[18:49] Traveler/Id
    Why did Emily fool us?
[18:52] Traveler/Id
    Why did she gather us here?
[18:55] Traveler/Id
    I won't give up until I find out...
[18:59] Traveler/Id
    who or what you really are.
[19:04] Traveler/Id
    It should be up ahead.
[19:11] Traveler
    A person?
[19:16] Reflejo
    What's wrong? Aren't you going to attack?
[19:21] Viole
    The hostage...
[19:24] Viole/Id
    I need to immobilize him and save Hwaryun!
[19:31] Reflejo
    That won't work.
[19:33] Reflejo
    Didn't I say you don't
    stand a chance against me?
[19:38] Viole
    How?
[19:39] Reflejo
    Does that unsettle you?
[19:42] Reflejo
    I was made to fight you.
[19:47] Reflejo
    Naturally, I know everything
    you're capable of.
[19:53] Reflejo
    I've lived over a thousand
    years for that one purpose.
[20:01] Reflejo
    To fulfill Poken's greatest wish.
[20:05] Reflejo
    This unparalleled joy rising up inside me...
[20:10] Reflejo
    To think this historic
    moment should arrive now!
[20:15] Rak
    He's obsessed.
[20:17] Aguero
    A real pervert.
[20:19] Reflejo
    It's time to end this.
[20:26] Aguero
    Five baang.
[20:28] Aguero
    My Lighthouse is at its limit.
[20:30] Aguero
    You'll have to intercept all of them.
[20:37] Reflejo
    You fell for it.
[20:43] Viole
    His Shinsu merged into one baang?
[20:51] Reflejo
    You were my targets from the start!
[20:54] Viole/Id
    Wait...
[20:56] Viole/Id
    He's aiming for them?!
[20:58] Reflejo
    Begone.
[21:02] Aguero
    Bam!
[21:03] Rak
    Black turtle!
[21:07] Viole
    It's all right. I can handle this.
[21:09] Viole
    If I attack while he's unleashing his Shinsu...
[21:13] Reflejo
    You can't do it.
[21:16] Reflejo
    The weakness that made you want
    to save everyone brought you here,
[21:21] Reflejo
    and it will be what kills all of you.
[21:28] Rak
    Damn that cowardly smoke turtle!
[21:32] Rak
    I'll kill him!
[21:34] Aguero
    Don't, Rak! He's got a hostage!
[21:39] Aguero/Id
    I hate to admit it, but he's more
    calculating than I expected.
[21:42] Aguero/Id
    He's trying to use us to ensure his victory.
[21:47] Aguero/Id
    He's taken a hostage, too.
[21:51] Aguero/Id
    But wait.
[21:53] Aguero/Id
    Maybe that hostage is actually...
[21:56] Aguero
    Rak!
[21:57] Rak
    Huh?
[21:58] Aguero
    I've figured out how we can
    take down that smoky bastard.
[23:36] Rak
    I don't know how to use this, but...
