"And so, the Black Hero who fought and fought against the whole world finally, truly broke down." "The Black Hero was sealed away far to the south by the goddesses who protected the world." "But another monster lived in that region:" "the Lonesome Devil, hideous and ever so lonely, so lonely that he almost died." "I want to get out of this place." "I need power to get out." "Would you give me your body?" "Would you let me eat half of your body?" "Sure, go ahead." "You're the first friend I've ever had, and all." "For you, giving up my body is no big deal." "The devil called All Formulas was split into the Solver of All Formulas and the Weaver of All Formulas." "And the hero devoured the Weaver of All Formulas on the spot." "The hero broke the world, and broke it, and broke it even more, until he finally reached the world's core." "But what he found there was the blackest despair, pain, loneliness, and Hell..." "Looking up at the door of reminiscence But what he found there was the blackest despair, pain, loneliness, and Hell..." "Looking up at the door of reminiscence And darkness, and darkness, and darkness, and darkness..." "The faraway whispering I was listening to And darkness, and darkness, and darkness, and darkness..." "The faraway whispering I was listening to" "Guide me, labyrinth of the soul" "Guide me, labyrinth of the soul Help me." "Help me." "To the path of the flakes of light I want to destroy the entire world, but I'm going to die first." "To the path of the flakes of light Someone, please take this darkness, this pain, in my place." "The pain that pierces me is an innocent trick Someone, please take this darkness, this pain, in my place." "The pain that pierces me is an innocent trick You can use the rest of my body, then." "I want to believe that I'm not alone You can use the rest of my body, then." "I want to believe that I'm not alone You can put the darkness in here." "This place is a paradise of wandering You can put the darkness in here." "This place is a paradise of wandering" "With wings that dye the heart white" "With wings that dye the heart white The Lonesome Devil didn't regret it much at all." "If I can reach your eyes The Lonesome Devil didn't regret it much at all." "If I can reach your eyes Because he had made a friend, even just for a moment." "If I can reach your eyes Because he was able to live for his friend, even just for a moment." "Embrace me with a smile Because he was able to live for his friend, even just for a moment." "Embrace me with a smile" "Know the meaning behind being born" "Know the meaning behind being born The Lonesome Devil is a fool." "Gazing at one another, the destiny legend begins The Lonesome Devil is a fool." "Gazing at one another, the destiny legend begins" "A fool, to the very end." "Sion's out pretty late." "What's the big idea, calling people in and then going out, huh?" "Claugh..." "I know the reason we were called here today, now." "Are you... crying?" "No." "It sure looks that way." "It's just the rain." "And?" "What are you going to do with me now?" "I'd figured that one day we'd end up like this." "It's always been like that, thinking that things can't stay this nice..." "When I start thinking that I can't keep things up like this, it always brought a sudden situation like this to mind." "So, Sion." "Do you... want to kill me?" "I'm sorry, Ryner." "Ah, I see." "If it was you doing it maybe getting killed wouldn't be so bad." "But..." "Sorry, Sion." "I can't let you kill me." "There's this fool who'll feel lonely if I die, even though I'm like this." "I've already made a promise." "I've decided who will kill me." " Ferris?" " Yeah." "I'm jealous." "Well, I suppose it can't be helped." "After all, I broke my promise first." "I still consider you my best friend." "Me, too." "But you're killing me?" "Yeah." "You've already made your decision, huh?" "Yeah." "Then, I guess it can't be helped." "Yeah, it can't be helped." "I shall end this, Ryner." "I hate to disappoint you, Sion, but you won't end a thing." "You can't win against me." "I can win." "Get him!" "What I seek is thunder!" "Izuchi!" "What's all this, Sion?" "!" "Don't tell me you've..." "Yes." "I've brought everything to completion." "You're kidding!" "What the hell have you been doing in this country?" "!" "Nothing special." "It's perfectly normal." "I've merely chosen that which is necessary." "You carried out human experiments because they were necessary?" "Answer me, Sion!" "What the hell are you doing?" "!" "What burden are you carrying on your shoulders?" "Why do you take it all on yourself alone?" "!" "Can I not help you?" "!" "Are we just outsiders to you?" "!" "Weren't we best friends?" "!" "Answer me, damn you!" "Sion Astal!" "What I seek is thunder!" "Izuchi!" "Izuchi!" "I..." "I won't give up, Sion!" "No matter how deeply you brood, how hopeless you grow..." "No matter how far you sink into darkness, how hard it becomes to escape dark places I won't ever give up on you!" "I will kill you." "You can't kill me." "I..." "You can't kill your friend!" "Come with me, Sion." "Sion!" "You will die here." "I won't die." "You're crying so strongly." "I won't die until I save you." "Yes, I knew it..." "I knew my decision was correct, Ryner." "I will save you." "No matter what happens to the world!" "What I seek is thunder!" "Izuchi!" "Sion!" "There you are, my dear Lonesome Devil." "Thanks to you, I was able to bring forth the swords." "Sion?" "!" "You're..." "Is it time?" "It's time." "I will consume you." "It's time..." "Time to wander in an eternal Hell." "I will send you there." "Send." "Send..." "Come, let us eat." "The world is waiting." "Come, let us eat." "The world is..." "Stop where you are, Hero." "It is not yet that time, is it?" "Who are you?" "The Alpha?" "No, you are not the Alpha." "Then do not hinder me." "I shall become true." "You should stop." "Now is not the time." "You should know that as well." "Weaver of All Formulas." "I wouldn't have expected you to manage this much." "It seems that I made light of you a bit." "Now, stop him and release Ryner." "He wishes to eat." "But now is not the time." "He is crucial, but in a state like this..." "The world wouldn't change like this." "No one would be saved." "Not him." "Not you." "Not that girl, whom you cherish above all others." "Yes, I suppose you're right." "I'm glad that you have at least a shred of sanity remaining." "Sanity?" "Do you have any room to speak of such things?" "Rather, I would like to see some in you." "But Sion is different." "He would never lose his sanity." "That is why I chose him." "Because he always chooses the correct path." "Sion will betray you, Ryner Lute." "Hideous beast, lonely devil." "Until then, by all means, keep playing at your friendship." "Keep brandishing your silly justice and love, with no knowledge of his anguish." "Just enjoy your idyllic slumber as usual." "Sion..." "Hey." "Hey, wake up." "Don't sit there half asleep." "Wake up already." "C'mon." "Huh?" "Why am I?" "Still half asleep?" "Come on, what's the big idea, making me help out with work, then nodding off before me?" "Ryner?" "Was I asleep?" "For how long?" "Four hours." " No way." " For real." "Then... was it all a dream?" "Huh?" "A dream?" "Well..." "Actually, there was this really..." "Hm?" "What was it again?" "Hey, what's the deal?" "I remembered it until just now." "I get the feeling it was a really bad dream." "Is that right?" "I guess it's a good thing I woke you up, then." "Yeah, you saved me." "Thanks." "Well, you were going on in your sleep like..." ""Eheheheh, I'm surrounded by the brassieres of hot girls." "This is paradise!"" "Frankly, I wasn't sure whether or not I should wake you up." "Uh-oh." "My tastes have been revealed." "Well, uh, when you just go along with it that readily, it's not fun for me at all." "Then, why don't we get back to work?" "It's all done." "You should go to bed and get some real sleep." "You didn't do all of it by yourself?" " Yeah." " You're kidding." " Why would you do it alone without waking me?" " Aw, shaddup." "I tried to wake you and you wouldn't wake up, so what could I do?" "Thanks." "Forget about it." "Thanks, Ryner." "Aw, just shaddup!" "Go and get some sleep already!" "No." "Since I slept for four hours, I'll resume work with you." "I haven't slept at all yet!" "Yes, that's it." "This isn't right." "I know." "It's time now." "I have to advance forward." "That's why I..." "Kill." "Kill him." "If he isn't killed now, Ryner will be doomed to never be able to die!" "He'll end up wandering in Hell forever." "So, I'll save you... from the darkness, and..." "Damn it." "You win!" "I can't kill him!" "No one..." "No one has won." "You are me." "I suppose so." "You are me." "Yes." "I'm..." "We're so terribly weak." "Yes." "But we advance forward nonetheless." "Betraying our friend?" "Do we offer our friend as a sacrifice and plunge him into Hell, then advance forward?" "That's right." " It's unbearable." " Yes." "It's unbearable for me." "Yes." "And yet..." "And yet I can't kill Ryner, or save him." "I'm a weakling." "You did well." "Don't patronize me." "Stop blaming yourself." " Your choice wasn't wrong..." " What do you know?" "!" "What the hell do you know?" "!" "I just want to disappear." "Is that right?" "Consume me." "I'll give you my mind." "Very well." "You can relax." "There's no more need for you to agonize over anything." "I'll..." "I'll handle the rest." "It's all right." "I..." "I'll advance forward." "See you around." "Who's there?" "!" "Entry here is forbidden!" "What the hell?" "He didn't kill me, after all that?" "Hey!" "Hey, Mister Jailer!" "I've got a few questions for you!" "Are you there?" "Hey!" "Well, if he's not around, there's nothing for it." "I'll make you regret giving me that face and then not killing me!" "I offer up this contract..." "Ferris?" "!" "What the hell are you doing?" "!" "What?" "That's what I want to know..." "Uh, Ferris?" "I thought you were dead..." "I thought you were dead!" "I was told that you were really dead, and I..." "I searched for you!" "I never believed it, even when Sion said it..." "Never, never..." "You saw Sion?" "Something's not right about him." "He said he killed you, and smiled." "Smiled, while looking like he was going to cry." "Even when I said it was a lie, that he could never kill Ryner he just kept smiling..." "He said never to come back, never to associate with him again..." "He's marched the army into Imperial Nelpha." "He's spearheading the army with soldiers born of forbidden techniques, and slaughtering all the people of Nelpha." "People all over this country are cheering it on." "Praising the Hero King, the Hero King that will rule the world..." "They're wrong." "All of them..." "Sion, everybody, the whole country..." "It's all right." "It's all right now, okay?" "You don't have to worry about a thing." "Three cheers for the Hero King!" " Don't let him escape!" " After him!" "We're getting out of this country!" "What do we do once we're out?" "We'll look for some way to stop him." "We'll find out why this is happening and reveal the truth!" " Over there!" " There he is!" "Wait!" "Get out of here safely, Ryner!" " Come on, Ryner." " Right!" "You know, Sion." "I've always been grateful to you." "I was always dead." "I was alive, but I was dead." "Vestiges of that day I had forgotten I was always dead." "I was alive, but I was dead." "Vestiges of that day I had forgotten Since I was a monster, I couldn't be at anyone's side." "Vestiges of that day I had forgotten I couldn't love anyone, either." "Faint in the direction of the sky I couldn't love anyone, either." "Faint in the direction of the sky I thought there was no point in living." "Faint in the direction of the sky I'd given up on everything." "But..." "I'd given up on everything." "But..." "Our hearts should have been connected I'd given up on everything." "But..." "Our hearts should have been connected I was saved by you." "Saved, from the bottom of my heart." "Our hearts should have been connected I've always been grateful for that." "The trembling eyes don't answer I've always been grateful for that." "The trembling eyes don't answer It may not have looked that way, though." "The trembling eyes don't answer" "No matter how much I believe" "No matter how much I want to convey" "This voice won't reach" "This voice won't reach What I seek is the burning field!" "Kurenai!" "Filaments of light What I seek is the burning field!" "Kurenai!" "Filaments of light" "Carve everything into my body" "Carve everything into my body Pink hair?" "From here where I set out walking Pink hair?" "From here where I set out walking It couldn't be..." "From here where I set out walking Yes." "From here where I set out walking" "Memory segments" "Memory segments I want to return the favor." "Untie the strings of fate that now bind me I want to return the favor." "Untie the strings of fate that now bind me So..." "I don't know what you're involved in," "I want to grow strong So..." "I don't know what you're involved in," "I want to grow strong but I'll go to you." "So that when we meet again but I'll go to you." "So that when we meet again To save you." "So that when we meet again" "I can give you more protection" "I can give you more protection All forces, advance!" "I can give you more protection" "I don't know how much power it'll take to do that, but I'll get ahold of all that it takes, and I'll go to you." "So, you just prepare yourself and wait until then." "So many thoughts set free So, you just prepare yourself and wait until then." "So many thoughts set free I'll make you regret not killing me then." "So many thoughts set free" "So many thoughts set free Despairing alone, bearing everything yourself, looking on the verge of tears..." "They spread toward the sky Despairing alone, bearing everything yourself, looking on the verge of tears..." "They spread toward the sky I'll go to you, and I'll..." "I'll make you..." "I'll go to you, and I'll..." "I'll make you..." "They should have overlapped with the heart I'll go to you, and I'll..." "I'll make you..." "They should have overlapped with the heart I'll make you say you had the best friend ever." "They should have overlapped with the heart" "The trembling eyes grow distant" "The trembling eyes grow distant Ryner, join me." "The trembling eyes grow distant" "No matter how much I lose" "No matter how much I lose So, I'm also going to advance forward, Sion."
