"Astal thinks he's going to a safe place." "Fifty Magic Knights." "What a clown." "He thinks he can bare his fangs at the prince and win." "Hilarious!" "You sick-minded manipulator!" "Don't you dare look at my sister that rudely!" "The prince?" "Brother." "What's the matter, Sister?" "I can't breathe!" "Ferris, you always spoil Iris so." "Jobs should be thoroughly finished." "If we let a man like this live, it would sully the Eris family, would it not?" "What's your intent?" "Is the prince behind this?" "Does that mean Sion is also a prince?" "The Eris family serves only the king of Roland." "The true king." "The king?" "We must see whether or not Sion would be a suitable king." "Will he make it back alive, faced with a troop of fifty Magic Knights?" "Impossible." "I could do it." "Sion isn't you." "He most certainly isn't." "But he carries something." "You met Sion, and as a result, you saved his life." "Don't you find that fascinating?" "I'm not particularly fascinated, no." "Staying asleep" "Losing sight of you" "It makes me want to break everything right now" "If I can't hear the words I yearn for again" "I'd carelessly offer my life" "Desires that cuddle" "With a fading light" "It's lonely" "Will the morning sun come before me?" "Answer me" "Is there a love that binds us?" "Stand and face the despair we invited" "The wills of the people" "Born and destroyed" "Choose the future and open the lock" "All groups, commence preparations." "Securing water takes priority." "Everyone who's not busy, pitch some tents." "Going to fetch some water!" "Don't drag your feet." "Hey, lend a hand with the tent-pitching!" "What a pain." "No thanks." " Hey, Kiefer!" "Say something to Ryner!" " Oh, my poor stomach..." "Ah... sorry, I didn't hear you." "Kiefer, the layabout says he won't help with tent-pitching." "Ryner only listens to you, Kiefer." "You did something to Kiefer, huh?" " Not a thing." " She's definitely not herself, though." "You're all so dense." "I mean, we're in a war!" "When you think what might happen to the one you love, of course it's a downer." "Or did Kiefer say something to you before our dispatch?" "You dying scares me the most." "Hey, c'mon!" "What?" "!" "Welp, I'm off to fetch water." "We're off to the woods to gather some firewood." "What about the tents?" "Take care of it while we're out, okay?" "Ah, it's so nice and clear out today, huh?" "Good luck, Ryner!" "Then I guess I'll get an afternoon nap." "Ryner..." "Ryner, would you run away with me?" "Come on, come with me." "Not with Sion." "With me..." "What are you talking about?" "I care for you, Ryner." "I've always cared for you." "Even though it was hopeless, I couldn't help falling for you." "Ryner, you don't like me, do you?" "Oh, come off it, Kiefer." "Joking around at a time like this?" "Yeah, you're right." "I guess I can't have anything." " No, I didn't mean..." " Even so, I didn't want you to die." "I'm sorry, Ryner." "I couldn't protect you." "I offer up this contract to bear the spirit beast of light which sleeps within the atmosphere!" "Farewell." "Tahile?" "You think you can escape from us, the Magic Knights of Estabul?" "What's happening?" "An enemy raid from Estabul!" "Red-armored knights are flooding in!" "They're attacking us..." "Red armor?" "The Estabul Magic Knights?" "All hands, retreat!" "Run into the woods, fall back and regroup!" "Sion!" "Are you safe?" "No, not Tahile..." "He had left to fetch water." "He said we'd be safe as long as we stuck with Sion!" " What happened to Kiefer?" " I don't know." "Let's split up here." "Tony, Fahle, you two go ahead." "We'll stall them here." "Sion!" "Don't worry." "Go!" "There may still be survivors, including Kiefer." "You're going to save them?" "It's impossible!" "It does seem that way." " See them?" " No." "What's wrong?" "Hurry and run, Roland brats!" "If you don't run, you spoil our fun!" "I offer up this contract, to bear the spirit beast of light which sleeps in the atmosphere!" "Is he using that magic to accelerate?" "I offer up this contract, to bear the spirit beast of light which sleeps in the atmosphere!" "Are you okay?" "Yes, but you... that magic..." "You should know it." "I didn't want to use it, though." "Damn it." "So that was..." "You!" "Why do you use our magic?" "He couldn't be!" "An Alpha Stigma bearer?" "The eyes said to bring forth disaster!" "I offer up this contract, to unleash..." "Stop!" "Don't use magic!" "I offer up this contract, to unleash the magic beast which dances through the skies!" "If you'd used that power sooner, everyone might not be dead right now!" "We only faced three of them, so we made it out alive." "Besides, it's been seven years since I've used this power..." "You gave us an interesting spectacle there." "How rare to see an Alpha Stigma, monster." "Cower more!" "Amuse me, monster." "You have an Alpha Stigma, right?" "Show me something nice." "Do you get it yet, monster?" "Those two are the only ones left." "We killed the rest." "All of them." "All of them?" "Are you still calm after hearing that?" "You're so boring." "Hey!" "Stop." "Please, just stop..." "People die." "But it doesn't matter to you." " It doesn't matter." " You're wrong." " I'm not wrong." " You're wrong!" "Everything." "Yours to toy with." "Release it." "Open up." "Kill." "Everything." "Until everything disappears before your eyes." "Hey, what's your problem?" "Don't defy me." "Your molecules shall scatter like sand." "What did you do?" "God." "Devil." "Hero." "Monster." "What will you call me?" "Finish him off!" "I offer up this contract, to unleash the power of the spirit which envelops the air!" "Analyze existence." "Release." "A god..." "First comes destruction." "I bring forth nothing." "I bless nothing." "I save nothing." "I just erase." "Completely." "Shatter." "Monster..." "Break." "Disappear." "Collapse." "Burst." "What is this?" "My power..." "The contract is different..." "Erase... everything..." " Ryner..." " Ryner!" "You two are dangerous..." "Die..." "Damn... eyes... closing..." "Stop... don't... close..." " Close them!" " Stop... you..." "Ryner." "Hey, can you hear me?" "Ryner!" "Again." "Reinforcements?" "Senseless." "Stop!" "Hmph, monster." "You should have just behaved and stayed shut away in school." "Kiefer..." "Is she alive?" "She's already been thrown into prison here." "To begin with, who would have expected her to come back?" "Years ago, the eldest of her sisters died in a spy crackdown." "The remaining two received our country's reeducation." "We had the younger sister remain here, as a sign of loyalty to our country." "Wouldn't it be quicker to just say you took her hostage?" "She was a foolish girl as well." "Even though her younger sister is dead since long ago, in the end, she was worthless." "Nothing is accomplished as long as the Astal brat survives." "So he was your real target." "Do you have any idea how much of a reprimand we got from those people?" "Is that what you called me here for?" "To complain and moan?" "Mind your tongue, monster!" "Ow..." "That one hurt a little." "Of course it did!" "Are you mocking me?" "You're the one doing the mocking here." "I'm always the one being mocked." "I've had enough punishment." "Could you throw me in jail before I drop dead?" "The king will grant one request, with your imprisonment." "I'd sure like to stop this bleeding, but..." "Oh, I know." "Hey, Kiefer." "If you keep taking afternoon naps, your grades will drop." "What's this?" "What are you doing here, Ryner?" "What could I say?" " This su..." " If you say this sucks, I'm beating you up." "Don't hit me!" "Relax." "The bleeding will start again." "Why are you so badly injured?" "Forget the injuries." "There's something I have to tell you." "Your younger sister is gone." "Apparently she was killed some time ago." "How do you know that, Ryner?" "I see." "I see it now." "You're another pawn of Roland, aren't you?" "I didn't want to hear it." "I didn't want to hear that my sister is dead!" "Not from you, certainly!" "You knew it all?" "You knew that, and laughed?" "When I said I cared about you were you laughing at me for being such a foolish girl?" "I had a vague idea that my sister might be dead." "But what could I do?" "I..." "I..." "Why do we have wars?" "I've got no interest in who owns what land." "That's why I said I liked afternoon naps the most." "Tahile, Tony, and Fahle all died senseless deaths." "What are you saying?" "It must be the motivated guys who start wars." "But the guys without motivation always get sucked into them." "So what should the guys with no motivation do?" "Unlike Sion, I've never wanted to be involved in troublesome things like changing the country." "Is there some place where I could just take afternoon naps and live my life without hurting anyone?" "What?" "Hey..." "Kiefer, did I say something strange?" "Are you almost ready?" "Oh, right!" "Okay, Kiefer, come here a second." " What?" " Go on, go on." "Congratulations to you for your release." "Congratulations to me for my imprisonment." " What's this?" " Do you agree with this, as your request?" "Perfect." "Deal concluded." "What's this all about?" "Written orders." "Release of Kiefer Knolles in exchange for Ryner Lute's imprisonment." "Who are you?" "A fiend so great who can make direct deals with the military?" "Not really." "Why would you do that, Ryner?" "I betrayed everyone." "I got everyone killed..." "People don't kill people." "Monsters do." "War is a monster." "Kingdoms are monsters." "Greed is a monster." "And I'm a monster, too." "But you're human, Kiefer." "In here, I can rule as the king of the Kingdom of Afternoon Naps." "Kiefer, go outside and..." "Now I know why I fell for you, Ryner." "Because you were so unmotivated, I never felt like I had to be cautious around you." "I could be at ease." "That's what I thought, but I was wrong." "It's really because you're kind." "And... because you're strong." "Ryner, you're no monster." "I guarantee it." "Thank you, Ryner." "I'll live on." "And mark my words, I'll..." "I'm going." "Open up." "That surprised me." "I thought I was going to suffocate." "What's wrong?" "Are you injured?" "A little." "Are you a fool, volunteering to be imprisoned?" "It was hard getting a visitation here." "You didn't have to bother." "I'm just being kept in a prison cell instead of a school, now." "When I close my heart" "When I close my heart What's this?" "When I close my heart I'm leaving a horse in the northern woods tonight." "To the scent of impending darkness I'm leaving a horse in the northern woods tonight." "To the scent of impending darkness If you do that, you'll be a suspect." "A refrain of a far-off day of resurrection If you do that, you'll be a suspect." "A refrain of a far-off day of resurrection They don't have the guts to imprison a war hero." "Seeking to overcome resounding pain It could ruin your good name as a hero." "Seeking to overcome resounding pain I've managed up until now." "Seeking to overcome resounding pain You seem to have a lot of people who wish misfortune upon you." "For that transparent future I saw with you You seem to have a lot of people who wish misfortune upon you." "For that transparent future I saw with you Please, Ryner, hear me out." "This is the only chance we'll have." "For that transparent future I saw with you I can't guarantee I'd be able to visit you after this." "Off in the sweeping emptiness I can't guarantee I'd be able to visit you after this." "Off in the sweeping emptiness And I'm not that confident in myself anymore." "If you stay by my side..." "And I'm not that confident in myself anymore." "If you stay by my side..." "My friends are dead." "A war has started." "The fact that I'm not king right now..." "I'll stretch my hand out My friends are dead." "A war has started." "The fact that I'm not king right now..." "I'll stretch my hand out Those are all failures on my part." "I'll stretch my hand out" "Towards the soaring skies of our oath" "I want to be the light that protects" "I want to be the light that protects" " Ryner?" " It's too much bother." "I want to be the light that protects Besides, who knows what'll happen even if things go well?" "Your fleeting dreams, your tears Besides, who knows what'll happen even if things go well?" "Your fleeting dreams, your tears Ryner, do you want to stay like this?" "Break free from your cruelty-stained destiny Ryner, do you want to stay like this?" "Break free from your cruelty-stained destiny I'm enjoying afternoon naps at my leisure here." "Break free from your cruelty-stained destiny What will afternoon naps accomplish?" "!" "Break free from your cruelty-stained destiny I'll take an afternoon nap, and think about it after that." "I believe in it I'll take an afternoon nap, and think about it after that." "I believe in it Ryner!" "The other truth of my destiny Ryner!" "The other truth of my destiny It's time." "Sir Sion, are you ready to go?" "The other truth of my destiny" "To another world" "To another world I'm going back to being locked up for a bit." "To another world When you consider that this place gives three meals a day, it's pretty nice." "When you consider that this place gives three meals a day, it's pretty nice." "I'll see you later, Sion." "Yeah, see you later." "I've decided." "Now that I've lost everything, I won't go astray any longer." "Ryner, I'll be certain to..." "If you'd used that power sooner, everyone might not be dead right now!" "It never changes..." "War really does suck." "Why would anyone want to have a war?" "It sucks just thinking about it." "Lights out!" "A lot happened today." "Not much will happen starting tomorrow." "Well, that just means I've got plenty of time now." "When I close my heart" "To the scent of impending darkness" "A refrain of a far-off day of resurrection" "Seeking to overcome resounding pain" "For that transparent future I saw with you" "Off in the sweeping emptiness" "If you stay by my side..." "I'll stretch my hand out" "Towards the soaring skies of our oath" "I want to be the light that protects" "Your fleeting dreams, your tears" "Break free from your cruelty-stained destiny" "I believe in it" "The other truth of my destiny" "To another world" "It really sucks, working hard, struggling." "If I just sleep, nothing will happen." "I was satisfied with that." "But... see..." ""See you next time!""
