"Don't." "Orange." "Bat..." "Andalusia Leader to all units." "Target the transport only." "do not engage." "We will use Kaufmann 6 as an anchor to perform wire swingby and return to Trident Base." "people." "Roger that." "Target located." "commence attack." "Wind's too strong..." "Our rounds are drifting!" "Stay calm!" "They're in the same boat!" "Hit 'em before they can get close!" "Multiple high-density satellites!" "We can't hit them at this range!" "Don't hold back on the bullets!" "Keep firing!" "I'm hit!" "Damage minor!" "Continuing missi–." "Andalusia 33!" "Andalusia 22!" "That's not possible!" "How can he land any shots in this wind?" "What in the world?" "Intense thermal reading approaching!" "An enemy?" "sir!" "That's..." "The Tharsis!" "Please get clear." "I'll handle them." "Sir Slaine Troyard..." "Andalusia 11!" "Bastard!" "so how can that be?" "!" "are upon me." "Slaine Troyard has come." "I idolized Earth." "Its blue seas." "Its blue skies. and is blessed with an abundance of life and natural resources." "I once lost my life on that world of Earth." "my eyes were opened to the truth." "How outrageous it was for the Terrans to live among that bounty without appreciating it. and is devoted to the pursuit of pleasure." "We mustn't allow them to have their way with this precious world of Earth. praise and commend all those Orbital Knights who have died in the name of that noble cause." "What's the point of watching that pirate broadcast of theirs?" "that's all..." "I wonder what happened to the princess?" "Who knows?" "I thought she was on Earth's side." "Who knows?" "Maybe she lost hope in there ever being a peaceful resolution." "it's only natural that she would side with Mars." "after all." "Inko..." "Inko?" "it's nothing." "I was just thinking that this might be our last chance to relax." "we board the ship tomorrow and lift off the day after that." "You sure it's not him you're thinking about?" "I-It's not!" "It's not like that!" "people!" "Are you training or aren't you?" "!" "sir!" "We plan to be able to lift off the day after tomorrow." "Troops whose arrival was delayed should be here by tomorrow." "Are you referring to him?" "I wonder what the top brass are thinking?" "We'll essentially be going into battle with our vitals exposed." "it changes things." "They're telling us to put it to effective use." "Hard to believe we'll be fighting side by side again... ma'am." "It's a miracle he made it back alive." "one would never guess we are in an uneven gravity field." "Slaine." "Count Saazbaum." "Granting you the title of knight was a wise decision." "How did the battle go?" "I destroyed some four enemy units." "Milord Slaine." "Mr. Harklight." "There's no need for "milord" with me." "Milord." "I am your manservant." "and..." "I'm a Terran." "Milord." "Milord Slaine." "Enter." "Pardon the interruption." "Princess Lemrina." "Count Saazbaum." "How fares the world? and their takeover is underway." "UEF counterattacks continue due to the surrender of the Landing Castles there." "Will I be able to go down to Earth?" "We expect the UE to be exhausted soon." "who inherit the bloodline will be installed as–." "Do not say that!" "Highness." "Princess Lemrina." "I have never been pleased with the blood flowing in my veins." "I find it repugnant." "Am I only being kept alive because of the value of my blood?" "To merely be a tool that exists to awaken Aldnoah." "My apologies." "I understand." "Count Saazbaum." "I am grateful to you." "Slaine." "Highness." "What is it?" "Will you teach me of Earth again?" "Gladly." "huh?" "Yeah..." "I hope we make it back alive." "Yeah..." "We're not going to die." "We'll beat the Martians." "We'll beat them and restore peace on Earth." "Period." "We don't have time to die." "I guess not." "Surprise attack!" "It's a Martian Kataphrakt!" "20 klicks." "Closing at 50kph." "All hands to battle stations." "We're leaving the dock." "But the antigravity device is being serviced!" "Sorry I'm late!" "What on Earth are you wearing?" "Where is the uniform you were supplied with?" "Well... it wasn't very cute." "Wasn't–." "so I'll authorize it." "Captain!" "shall I tell you why you can't get a date?" "launch all operational units!" "Any enemy intel?" "Frozen Elysium." "Its Aldnoah Drive's unique capability is Entropy Dilution." "Entro-what?" "It saps the molecular motion of all matter inside a field 1km in radius." "It creates super-low temperatures that can transform the air and freeze it." "Terrans." "Show me how you defy the power of Aldnoah!" "it'll reach the Deucalion's dock in 15 minutes." "We have to slow it down somehow..." "Slow it down?" "You must be joking." "We're going to destroy it." "This is Harbinger Platoon." "Target spotted." "We're going in in cold-weather mode." "on." "Commence attack." "What's that?" "The de-icers aren't working?" "Impossible!" "You are helpless before it." "It is not for nothing that its name is Frozen Elysium." "Voltage is falling?" "The chemical reaction in my batteries has stopped?" "My hand!" "Harbinger Leader!" "Bastard!" "My rounds aren't connecting!" "Why?" "!" "A shield?" "It shouldn't have one!" "We're out of options!" "This is bad." "We have to think of a way to slow it down." "I thought you said we were going to destroy it!" "Call it a downward revision!" "Measuring bullet trajectory." "you two." "I get it." "The warheads entered a superconductive state and were deflected by the Meissner Effect." "Let's see how air burst mode works." "the battery in the warhead froze and the processor locked up?" "Where does the sapped heat go?" "Is it shunting the molecular movement energy somewhere else in our dimension? about 50 meters should do it." "1km... 20 rounds should do it." "Inaho?" "!" "Charging enemy." "You'll freeze!" "I just need to reach him before then." "Hey!" "then!" "midair burst mode." "50 meters." "Fire." "well done." "Inaho!" "I took more damage than expected." "I wonder if Calm will be mad..." "Inaho!" "Inaho? I have been assigned to your ship." "Inaho." "Inko." "I'm glad you're looking well." "You have changed." "Quite a bit." "You can make polite small talk now." "That's not really a compliment." "Inko..." "Inaho." "It's good to be back." "Slaine." "I have finished off the Terran soldier who has been a thorn in our side." "I have finally made up my mind. and am sure to do in the future..." "Count Saazbaum." "Many Terran troops have already breached the castle." "Let's escape in the Tharsis." "And take Princess Asseylum with us." "Count." "Will you die with your ambitions unrealized?" "Or choose to live with Princess Asseylum?" "please." "Highness!" "What?" "No!" "Inaho!" "Inaho!" "Yuki!" "Inaho's been..." "Inaho's..." "Dr. Yagarai!" "You have to do something!" "Inaho?" "!" "Gunshot wound to the head." "Bullet went through the temporal region via the left eye socket." "Patient unconscious." "Three cc's of adrenaline administered as emergency treatment." "This is bad... right?" "He needs immediate surgical treatment." "of course." "However..." "We have tools and facilities in the underground shelter!" "Capt. Magbaredge!" "Order the Deucalion to lift off!" "The Aldnoah Drive... is offline." "Warrant Officer Kaizuka..." "Princess Asseylum..." "Where is she?" "do your best!" "Blood?" "Nao's blood... not his..." "It's blood splatter." "Whose?" "It's..." "The light of Aldnoah..." "The activation factor...!" "Nao... dead slow!" "dead slow." "We've left the atmosphere." "Now coasting on inertia." "Trident Base." "fire." "Monitor all wavelengths." "The Terrans who so foolishly squandered the goodwill of the Vers Empire are even now biding their time to attempt to steal our lands from us." "The Vers Empire must exterminate them out of mercy." "Inaho?" "We shall take the blue Earth for Vers." "which possesses air and water in such quantities that it diffracts light" "It's wrong." "From the hands of the barbaric Terrans." "It's Rayleigh scattering that makes the sky blue." "Eddelrittuo." "Milady!" "Right away!" "Count Saazbaum?" "Excellent." "You were the very image of Princess Asseylum." "No one would ever suspect your true identity." "This is the problem with you men." "No one was speaking of true identities." "Princess Lemrina." "Your majestic words as well." "Sir Slaine Troyard." "I am more grateful for such concern than any compliments on my performance." "I am extremely and humbly delighted." "I will take my leave now." "Mr. Harklight." "Princess Asseylum." "I see that you are in good spirits again today."
