[00:01] (Flashback) Alfreya {Flashback}
    I... received something from Sid.
[00:06] (Flashback) Alfreya {Flashback}
    He entrusted to me...
[00:08] (Flashback) Alfreya {Flashback}
    these words.
[00:12] (Flashback) Alfreya {Flashback}
    It exists... no, it was supposed to exist...
[00:18] (Flashback) Kai {Flashback}
    Supposed to exist?
[00:20] (Flashback) Kai {Flashback}
    What was he talking about?
[00:25] (Flashback) Alfreya {Flashback}
    You, who touched upon the taboo code...
[00:30] (Flashback) Alfreya {Flashback}
    Shatter... the hatred
    that lurks in this world!
[00:41] (Flashback) Jeanne {Flashback}
    I just want to end the War of the Five Races.
[00:44] (Flashback) Jeanne {Flashback}
    That is my wish.
[00:47] (Flashback) Dante {Flashback}
    Then begone already,
[00:49] (Flashback) Dante {Flashback}
    before the spirits and mythical beasts
    decide to make their move...
[00:53] (Flashback) Rikugen Kyoko {Flashback}
    Rath=IE, you are lying.
[00:58] (Flashback) Rath=Ie
    I see.
[00:59] (Flashback) Rath=Ie
    As a sage, you already
    understand the situation.
[01:06] (Flashback) Rath=Ie
    Right here and now,
[01:09] (Flashback) Rath=Ie
    the spirit race will disappear from the world!

[03:09] Rikugen Kyoko
    Universal Mirroring: Ocean.
[03:48] Rikugen Kyoko
    You're...
[03:58] Rath=Ie
    Good girl, Last Riser.
[04:08] Kai
    This road sure is wide.
[04:10] Reiren
    It's the road
    the Okerachuchupurin use, after all.
[04:23] Kai
    Okera-what now?
[04:25] Reiren
    The Okerachuchupurin. They're huge hedgehogs.
[04:30] Reiren
    They're about 10 meters wide.
[04:32] Reiren
    They rarely appear, but they could roll over
    a car and crush it to pieces if they did.
[04:36] Saki And Ashran
    What?!
[04:37] Ashran
    H-Hold on!
[04:39] Ashran
    So what happens to us if one appears?!
[04:42] Reiren
    Like I said, it'd crush us into pieces.
[04:44] Saki
    Are you sure we should be using this road?!
[04:47] Reiren
    If we're heading south,
    this is the fastest way.
[04:52] Rinne
    I'm still not okay with this.
[04:54] Rinne
    Why is Reiren sitting next to Kai?!
[04:57] Reiren
    I'm giving directions,
    so it can't be helped. Right, Kai?
[05:01] Kai
    Well, yeah. We're calling Reiren a professor
    from the Io Federation, after all.
[05:07] Saki
    Um, wouldn't it cause a big
    commotion if the others found out
[05:11] Saki
    that an elf is accompanying us?
[05:13] Saki
    Wouldn't her ears be a dead giveaway?
[05:17] Reiren
    My garment has cognitive
    inhibition magic embedded in it.
[05:22] Reiren
    Those unaware of my identity would
    think I'm a normal human being.
[05:29] Reiren
    It just means I'm
    much more skilled than you are.
[05:35] Rinne
    Y-You just want to be next to Kai, that's all!
[05:38] Reiren
    L-Like I've said before, you have it all wrong!
[05:41] Rinne {Overlap}
    I'm super sure of it!
[05:43] Kai
    Both of you, please settle down...
[05:46] Jeanne
    Status update.
[05:47] Jeanne
    Vehicle units, are there any abnormalities?
[05:50] Kai
    Lead vehicle reporting. No changes here.
[05:53] Jeanne
    Glad to hear.
[05:54] Jeanne
    Professor Reiren, could you tell us how much
    farther it is to the Yulun Federation?
[06:00] Reiren
    If we keep this pace, I'd say we'll
    get there in three days and three nights.
[06:06] Jeanne
    I see. I'm relieved to hear
    things seem to be going as planned.
[06:10] Jeanne
    Are there any places ahead
    where we can set up camp?
[06:14] Reiren
    Hmm... If we go for half a day,
    there is a place with many springs.
[06:19] Jeanne
    I see, then let us head there.
[06:22] Falin
    Jeanne-sama.
[06:23] Jeanne
    What is it?
[06:24] Falin
    Over there.
[06:28] Jeanne
    It's as if something has eaten away at it.
[06:32] Falin
    I presume it's mythical beasts.
[06:34] Jeanne
    But we're still in Io Federation territory.
[06:44] Jeanne
    Then we should assume that
    the mythical beasts have started
[06:49] Jeanne
    crossing the borders to invade.
[06:57] Rath=Ie
    You certainly splattered
    everywhere, Rikugen Kyoko.
[07:05] Rath=Ie
    I'm not seeing enough of you here, though.
[07:07] Rath=Ie
    Did you really escape as just your core?
[07:11] Rath=Ie
    I suppose it's possible
[07:12] Rath=Ie
    for the hero of the spirits.
[07:18] Rath=Ie
    Are you seriously heading to that place?
[07:22] Rath=Ie
    How strange.
[07:24] Rath=Ie
    Even if she is a hero,
    she shouldn't have been able to notice it.
[07:31] Rath=Ie
    Ah, whatever. There'll be
    other chances soon enough.
[07:37] Rath=Ie
    If those who have touched upon
    the taboo code are the center of the world...
[07:43] Rath=Ie
    I wonder what kind of path they'll choose?
[08:01] Ashran
    This spring is amazing.
    It's so warm and relaxing.
[08:06] Kai
    Yeah, it's warmed beneath the ground
    and is said to heal wounds.
[08:18] Saki
    Um... Is it really all right for us
    to be allowed to rest first?
[08:24] Falin
    Of course, you've earned it.
[08:27] Falin
    You aided in defeating
    the hero of the celestials.
[08:33] Ashran
    Good job, here.
[08:35] Kai
    Yeah, appreciate it.
[08:37] Ashran
    It must be hard being Jeanne-sama's bodyguard.
[08:40] Kai
    Yeah, I guess.
[08:48] Kai
    It can't be helped, considering
    we can't let anyone see, but...
[08:52] Kai
    I wonder if those three are doing all right...
[08:59] Reiren
    Hmm, your wounds are healing.
[09:02] Reiren
    You should fully recover in no time.
[09:05] Jeanne
    I see. I appreciate you healing me, Reiren.
[09:23] Reiren
    It seems you heal rather fast, too.
[09:26] Reiren
    You really are a mystery.
[09:29] Reiren
    Still...
[09:33] Reiren
    you certainly are obscene.
[09:35] Rinne
    Huh?!
[09:36] Reiren
    You have a needless abundance of
    chest and butt, like a succubus.
[09:40] Rinne
    I-I'm not obscene!
[09:42] Rinne
    You're the one that's too flat!
[09:44] Reiren
    F-Flat?!
[09:46] Reiren
    An elf's body is made perfectly
    with no wasted proportions!
[09:54] Jeanne
    Could you two listen a little?
[09:58] Jeanne
    I've previously spoken
    to Kai about this, but...
[10:04] (Flashback) Jeanne
    World reincarnation, and the code holder...
[10:07] (Flashback) Kai
    Yeah... To be honest, I don't
    understand most of it myself.
[10:14] (Flashback) Jeanne
    I see...
[10:17] (Flashback) Jeanne
    At the very least,
[10:18] (Flashback) Jeanne
    we know that your weapon was not
    made by human hands.
[10:22] (Flashback) Jeanne
    It might be dangerous to keep using it.
[10:26] (Flashback) Jeanne
    Well, I'm not one to talk, I suppose.
[10:29] (Flashback) Kai
    Seriously. You really push
    yourself too much, you know...
[10:34] (Flashback) Kai
    Sacrificing your life energy
    to use elf magic items.
[10:37] (Flashback) Jeanne
    I know. But I have no intention
    of changing my mind.
[10:41] (Flashback) Jeanne
    No matter what anyone says.
[10:43] (Flashback) Kai
    Yeah, I know.
[10:45] (Flashback) Kai
    You've been stubborn
    ever since you were a kid, Jeanne.
[10:49] (Flashback) Jeanne
    As I've mentioned before,
[10:50] (Flashback) Kai
    I don't care where you've come from
    or whether your story is true.
[10:55] (Flashback) Jeanne
    Whether you're beneficial
    to us in our fight or not...
[10:58] (Flashback) Jeanne
    That's all that matters.
[11:00] (Flashback) Kai
    I know. It's a natural opinion for
    a Rebel Army Commander.
[11:05] (Flashback) Jeanne
    Furthermore, what we need
    to think about is that monster.
[11:10] (Flashback) Jeanne
    The Last Riser...
[11:12] (Flashback) Jeanne
    It gave Alfreya a mortal wound,
[11:15] (Flashback) Jeanne
    and even appeared when you
    fought Vanessa, right?
[11:19] (Flashback) Kai
    Yeah, but there were no records
    of that monster even in my world.
[11:25] (Flashback) Jeanne
    Horrifying to hear.
[11:28] (Flashback) Kai
    From what I've observed...
[11:31] (Flashback) Kai
    I think the Last Riser
    is monitoring the heroes.
[11:35] (Flashback) Kai
    And what triggers it to go from monitoring
    to assault mode is probably... "Sid."
[11:42] (Flashback) Kai
    The name of the hero of the humans
    that doesn't exist in this world.
[11:46] (Flashback) Jeanne
    I wonder what kind of relationship
    the Last Riser has with the remaining heroes.
[11:51] (Flashback) Kai
    Yeah, I wonder.
[11:53] (Flashback) Kai
    Are they subservient, or are they hostile...
[11:57] (Flashback) Kai
    Or perhaps...
[12:00] (Flashback) Jeanne
    Either way, all we can do is keep facing them...
[12:04] (Flashback) Jeanne
    To end the Great War
    of the Five Races.
[12:07] (Flashback) Kai
    Yeah.
[12:11] Reiren
    That's true. The monster that
     suddenly changed Lord Alfreya...
[12:16] Reiren
    We don't know much about it.
[12:19] Jeanne
    From now on, when we fight a hero,
    we need to stay alert for the Last Riser as well.
[12:27] Rinne
    I'm... scared of it.
[12:31] Rinne
    I'm not sure why, but...
[12:33] Rinne
    when I look at it, my legs give out.
[12:37] Rinne
    I become scared, and paralyzed, and...
[12:46] Jeanne
    I didn't mean to frighten you. I'm sorry.
[12:49] Rinne
    It's okay.
[12:53] Jeanne
    What was that?!

[13:03] Soldiers
    Get ready over here!
[13:05] Soldiers
    Make the call!
[13:32] Kai
    It's a mythical beast... a behemoth!
[13:43] Kai
    Take this!
[13:53] Falin
    Let's go. Follow my lead.
[13:55] Kai
    All right...
[14:14] Falin
    Kai, watch out!
[14:23] Falin
    All personnel, temporary retreat!
[14:28] Kai
    The modified drake bullet
    didn't work on it...
[14:31] Kai
    Could it be...
[14:33] Kai
    it's stronger than
    the mythical beasts I know?
[14:37] Jeanne
    Group eight, group nine,
    rescue the injured.
[14:40] Jeanne
    Group 12, retreat and start
    preparing a relief base.
[14:45] Falin
    Jeanne-sama!
[14:48] Falin
    It's a mythical beast.
[14:49] Falin
    It's probably the one that
    left those marks earlier today.
[14:53] Reiren
    How can that be?
[14:55] Reiren
    We're still in celestial territory.
[14:58] Jeanne
    Just watching us... no, reconnaissance?
[15:02] Kai
    Jeanne, an autocannon won't do.
[15:05] Kai
    For a mythical beast that size,
     you need to use something stronger.
[15:09] Falin
    We don't have anything bigger.
[15:11] Falin
    We weren't expecting to fight mythical
    beasts, so it can't be helped, but...
[15:16] Falin
    We'll buy some time.
[15:18] Falin
    Jeanne-sama, please take the rest
    of the soldiers and retreat.
[15:24] Jeanne
    Kai, how do we defeat that thing?
[15:28] Kai
    Jeanne?
[15:29] Jeanne
    If we're going to face the spirits
    and the mythical beasts,
[15:34] Jeanne
    we can't be pushed back
    by an enemy of that caliber.
[15:41] Kai
    You're right.
[15:43] Kai
    Aim for the forehead.
[15:45] Kai
    It's an atrophied magic organ.
     That's its vital spot.
[15:51] Falin
    We're already aware of that.
[15:54] Falin
    The question is how to attack it.
[15:57] Jeanne
    If this is the celestial territory, 
    shouldn't it be here, Reiren?
[16:14] Falin
    Over here, you beast.
[16:27] Kai
    Just a little more.
[16:49] Reiren
    It's mushroom fog spores.
[16:52] Reiren
    It shouldn't be able
    to see or smell for a while.
[17:10] Kai
    Explode!
[17:14] Rinne
    What?
[17:16] Kai
    Rinne!
[17:31] Reiren
    Phew...
[17:34] Reiren
    Your plan worked.
[17:36] Reiren
    It completely fell for the elven trap.
[17:41] Reiren
    Right now, it's being burnt to a crisp
[17:43] Reiren
    by the magma-like heat
    of the purgatory flower garden.
[17:48] Reiren
    Hmm? What's wrong?
[17:49] Jeanne
    Kai!
[17:55] Rinne
    Kai... why...
[18:00] Kai
    The mythical beast's magical organ is
    atrophied, but it doesn't mean it's gone.
[18:07] Kai
    It probably detected
    your magical powers, Rinne.
[18:14] Rinne
    Such a painful wound...
    I don't want to see it.
[18:18] Rinne
    I don't like it when you're
    suffering like this, Kai...
[18:25] Kai
    Rinne, are you hurt?
[18:28] Rinne
    No.
[18:29] Kai
    Good. I'm glad you're all right.
[18:34] Jeanne
    Kai, are you all right?!
[18:36] Reiren
    I'll stop the bleeding.
    Do you have any painkillers?
[19:01] Arsla Solaka
    Awaken.
[19:05] Arsla Solaka
    Come to me.
[19:11] Arsla Solaka
    Child who is loved by fate.
[19:16] Arsla Solaka
    Child who was thrown away by the world
[19:20] Arsla Solaka
    The one who touched upon the taboo code.
[19:30] Jeanne
    Was that a dream?
[19:34] Kai
    That voice... I've heard it somewhere.
[19:44] Reiren
    What's going on?
[19:54] Ashran
    Change in departure time.
    We were told to stay put for a while.
[19:58] Saki
    What? Why?
[20:00] Ashran
    I don't know?
[20:01] Saki
    Oh, okay... I wonder if we could
    take another dip
[20:05] Saki
    in that warm spring.
[20:07] Ashran
    Did you get hooked on it?
[20:16] Reiren
    The building you speak of...
    I don't mind taking you there,
[20:20] Reiren
    but there's nothing special about it.
[20:22] Reiren
    There's just stone statues inside.
[20:25] Kai
    You've been in there before?
[20:27] Reiren
    Of course I have.
[20:28] Reiren
    I always thought humans
    make the silliest things.
[20:32] Jeanne
    Is it really a building made by humans?
[20:35] Jeanne
    In such a remote place?
[20:37] Reiren
    It wasn't made by the celestials.
[20:39] Reiren
    Humans are the only other
    ones who could make it, no?
[20:45] Kai
    A megalith, huh?
[20:46] Jeanne
    Megalith?
[20:48] Kai
    It's an unanalyzed spiritual ruin...
[20:51] Kai
    A structure whose origins are
    completely unknown.
[20:54] Kai
    There are several of them
    in the world I came from.
[20:58] Kai
    You know one of them, Rinne.
[21:01] Rinne
    I know one of them?
[21:04] Kai
    The graveyards.
[21:07] Kai
    In the true history of the world,
[21:09] Kai
    they were special buildings made
    to seal away the four races...
[21:13] Kai
    In this world, the code holder
    was hidden there.
[21:29] Kai
    It's this.
[21:31] Jeanne
    Yes... that's right.
[21:40] Arsla Solaka
    Now, come.
[21:45] Arsla Solaka
    What are you afraid of?
[21:49] Arsla Solaka
    You have finally found the center of the world,
[21:56] Arsla Solaka
    those chosen by fate.
[22:00] Arsla Solaka
    I shall welcome your visit.
