"Yuu." "There you are." "Yeah." "Good timing." "We've got a new ally." "He came here as fast as he could for our next operation." "This is Yuu." "He is?" "The one trained by Master Hondougen?" "Head down for now." "I'll be there in a second." "Don't get so upset." "Take a look." "Things are far better than when we first met." "We've got more and more people joining us all the time." "This isn't just your normal village." "It's an anti-Palam army." "Army?" "We all might be from different places you could call it that." "But we don't know these people..." "And we don't need to." "You just have to play your part." "What's important is that we got enough people here to fight." "Various anti-Palam forces have gathered in this area." "We haven't seen anything like this before." "So someone's pulling the strings to make this happen?" "Yes" "It wouldn't be surprising if the Kulum Kingdom was behind this." "Understood." "even though we border them." "We need to pick the bud before it sprouts." "Just like we did with the Clan of the Sword." "We're all ready to go here." "We go in at daybreak." "Show us how powerful those new Heaven's Spirit potions are." "Understood." "All right!" "I had to come all the way out here to the middle of nowhere." "I need to see some action." "I'm going to have some fun." "Garam." "Whatever." "Nothing but fakes." "They'll be disposed of before long." "Your orders." "What of the Butterfly?" "Nothing as of yet." "You test me." "I'll widen our search." "There's no good work out there." "Can't be picky." "Yup." "You looking for some work?" "I'll tell him and get everything ready." "I want me some of that." "Hm?" "We will soon receive reinforcements from the Kulum Kingdom!" "as well." "but has received training by a great master." "He has the power to defeat the evil magic that Palam uses." "There is nothing to fear!" "our anger to give them what they have coming!" "Yeah!" "I've been waiting for this day!" "I want you to take revenge for my beloved!" "They burned down my village!" "Let's get them!" "Let's do this!" "Stand tall!" "Take your weapons!" "We no longer need to bow down to their demands!" "They're the ones who will be cowering with fear!" "Yeah!" "We'll kill all that serve Palam!" "kill them!" "Kill them!" "How goes it?" "It doesn't look like it's going to rain." "I see." "That's good." "What was that?" "You can't take care of a single woman?" "She may be the only survivor but she is a member of the Clan of the Sword." "Pathetic." "I guess they're unable to control the Flower Monks properly." "It was a failure to leave any of the Clan of the Sword alive." "You will eradicate that cursed blood which opposes our ancient Court." "Understood." "You shouldn't be having any dreams..." "Because you don't sleep." "Thanks." "No problem." "What about your wounds?" "I can't play around here forever." "Revenge is silly." "You don't know anything about me!" "Be careful." "Kill them!" "correct?" "Of course." "as well." "Don't worry." "We won't do anything to you all." "That was the agreement." "I'll be going." "What's going on?" "!" "Yuu!" "The Kulum Empire wasn't the ones backing us?" "!" "What are you talking about?" "Don't try it!" "His accent." "It was Oriental Palamese." "Someone from Kulum wouldn't speak like that!" "You turned your back on your friends didn't you?" "!" "And what's the problem with that?" "Huh?" "even if it requires their help." "more people will come to our cause." "We'll get more people." "I'll do whatever it takes." "We can't trust Palam!" "They're going to get rid of us while they're at it!" "There's nothing to worry about." "We'll just go along with what they say and pull one over on them in the end." "I didn't want to fight... self-operated village correct?" "Did you really think no one would end up fighting?" "You're our ace." "You're going to stay here." "I'm not that strong..." "Everyone believes you are." "That's enough to bring everyone together." "Who is it?" "Wait." "I've come to talk." "I do not wish to fight." "Talk?" "The people below plan to attack before daybreak." "And why are you telling us this?" "Or is this some sort of trap?" "No." "Even if our surprise attack succeeds blood will be shed." "I'd like to stop that before that happens." "And you want us to believe you?" "Palam is the one that set you up." "isn't it weird that an elite force would be deployed to the middle of nowhere?" "This mission of yours itself is a trap." "Like we're going to believe that." "I want you to withdraw your troops." "having ran?" "The people who have amassed here are people that have and their families killed." "There's no way to convince them." "We attack." "Yes." "You're going to fight a battle where you've been set up?" "What's the point of that?" "!" "There is none." "What?" "What's going on?" "Make chase." "What's happening?" "An unforeseen circumstance has arisen." "We're making a change to the operation." "I guess we have some traitors." "Oh?" "Garam spotted Yoo Ran exchanging a secret message with someone." "What are you talking about?" "We get rid of anything suspicious!" "That is rule of the Palam Empire military." "You stay." "Wait." "You suspect me?" "!" "This isn't bad." "Where's Yuu?" "I haven't seen him." "I see." "Yo." "You leaving?" "Did the proprietress say something?" "No." "I see." "Is something the matter?" "I'm not sure about the proprietress anymore... right?" "And that's why it's hitting me so hard." "I didn't know she..." "Can you get Alka acting like that?" "I'll get her!" "No question!" "Sounds like you're ready and raring to go." "Of course I am!" "then?" "What?" "Jin Varrel is after Alka." "Alka is after Jin Varrel." "If you chase after one the other one'll be there." "I see." "I think it's a good deal for you." "Y-You've got to be kidding." "but..." "I can't wear those ridiculous spikes." "This armor shows our great spirit!" "Yeah." "That's some lousy spirit." "L-Lou—" "That's right." "Lousy." "I..." "Completely terrible." "Take that back!" "I bet you guys don't get any ladies wearing something looking like that." "Guess that decides it." "Hey!" "Say you were kidding." "tell them." "You can have all the alcohol you want." "I'm not joining!" "Dogs of Palam know our anger!" "I told you there might be some traitors." "The Flower Monks are an eyesore on our great Palam Empire Army." "Jin Varrel." "You don't look troubled a bit." "But we have an army behind us." "Looks like you'll get to have lots of fun." "huh?" "Die!" "Attack!" "Take this!" "It's the same." "Everything is ephemeral." "Life and death." "nor known to reality." "and flies towards the horizon." "You want to reincorporate the Flower Monks into the army?" "Yes." "Just leave everything to me." "Nothing to worry about it." "I'll think about how to deal with you." "Hm?" "Little pranks aren't funny when you take them too far." "Wait!" "Listen to me!" "Shall we wait for your pronouncement..." "Or..." "Why did you do that?" "The military was the one who interfered." "Don't misunderstand." "What's the problem?" "The black bird..." "It is a double-edged sword." "It shall not leave my cage." "I'm not sure about that." "It'll be too late if something happens." "Something?" "We've got new people!" "Aaron." "Sup." "And Shad." "Yo." "let's get going." "Hey." "You're paying me back for this later." "huh?" "You're just like Alka." "I'm going to say one thing." "I'm never wearing those spikes." "I think they'd look good on you." "I'd like to see you wear them once." "I'm not wearing them!" "Revenge is silly... 480)}Time for Review" "It's time for Blade  Soul's "Time for Review." "I was finally able to introduce myself!" "That's right." "I'm Yuu!" "We'll be talking about the Flower Monks today." "The Flower Monks are charged with eliminating those that rebel against the Palam Empire." "They are called this because their Impurity looks a lot like black flowers all over the place." "Time for revenge!" "Our next story is: "Time." "1)}Next Time:" ""Time and that... 0000"
