1
00:00:02,544 --> 00:00:06,756
I was born from a forbidden spell
that turns humans into magic.
2
00:00:07,590 --> 00:00:09,884
Magic in humanoid form, Eleonore.
3
00:00:10,885 --> 00:00:11,886
I see.
4
00:00:12,554 --> 00:00:14,180
Even after Ledriano
and the others suffered that blast,
5
00:00:14,973 --> 00:00:18,643
De Ijelia remained intact
and their fatal wounds could heal
6
00:00:18,727 --> 00:00:21,646
because you were shouldering their burden?
7
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:22,981
Yes.
8
00:00:23,064 --> 00:00:25,358
But before we talk any further...
9
00:00:26,025 --> 00:00:29,863
We have to undo the Gabel that Diego
put on the students of Zelga Kanon.
10
00:00:29,946 --> 00:00:32,240
I've frozen them with Revide,
11
00:00:32,323 --> 00:00:35,618
but if left alone,
they will all suffer essence explosions.
12
00:00:37,454 --> 00:00:40,457
If you let me out of here,
I can do something about it.
13
00:00:41,082 --> 00:00:43,084
I'm good with essence magic.
14
00:00:43,168 --> 00:00:44,794
Then allow me to do so.
15
00:01:01,644 --> 00:01:02,812
Thank you.
16
00:01:15,700 --> 00:01:17,660
Gaize isn't in effect anymore.
17
00:01:17,744 --> 00:01:19,454
The barrier is gone too.
18
00:01:20,038 --> 00:01:21,331
Is it over?
19
00:03:01,055 --> 00:03:02,765
{\an8}They'll be okay now.
20
00:03:06,019 --> 00:03:08,271
Now then, let me tell you
21
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:12,567
a little about our school.
22
00:03:16,279 --> 00:03:18,197
You've replicated humans?
23
00:03:19,032 --> 00:03:19,866
Yes.
24
00:03:20,450 --> 00:03:22,452
I gave birth to these essence clones.
25
00:03:23,202 --> 00:03:28,291
They were artificially created
using Eleonore as a mother essence.
26
00:03:29,751 --> 00:03:33,880
So even if you destroy one essence,
there are others ready to replace them.
27
00:03:33,963 --> 00:03:35,840
An idea sprung from madness.
28
00:03:36,549 --> 00:03:38,009
It is, isn't it?
29
00:03:38,092 --> 00:03:41,554
But there was someone
who accomplished it 2,000 years ago.
30
00:03:42,263 --> 00:03:46,935
Maybe you knew him? The general
who led the armies alongside Kanon.
31
00:03:47,810 --> 00:03:49,145
Zelga?
32
00:03:49,938 --> 00:03:53,900
General Zelga held
a great resentment toward demonkind.
33
00:03:54,484 --> 00:03:57,403
Even after the war ended, it remained.
34
00:03:58,196 --> 00:04:03,243
More than anything, he feared that their
descendants would forget that resentment.
35
00:04:03,868 --> 00:04:06,079
That's why he founded Hero Academy.
36
00:04:06,621 --> 00:04:12,585
What's more, he bent the laws of magic
to bind his own essence into two spells.
37
00:04:12,669 --> 00:04:15,004
The first is Ask.
38
00:04:15,088 --> 00:04:16,422
Kill them.
39
00:04:17,465 --> 00:04:19,968
Kill all demons.
40
00:04:20,969 --> 00:04:22,887
Kill them.
41
00:04:23,888 --> 00:04:25,848
Kill!
42
00:04:26,432 --> 00:04:31,187
People believe that casting Ask
lets them hear the voice of Kanon,
43
00:04:31,271 --> 00:04:34,565
but that voice
is General Zelga's desire for revenge.
44
00:04:34,649 --> 00:04:40,196
And that desire for revenge
is implanted into those affected by Ask?
45
00:04:40,780 --> 00:04:41,614
Yes.
46
00:04:41,698 --> 00:04:44,575
That's why the Hero Kanon opposed him.
47
00:04:44,659 --> 00:04:48,162
A faded memory of that
remains in my essence.
48
00:04:50,248 --> 00:04:53,376
Master Zelga, I understand
that you detest demons,
49
00:04:53,459 --> 00:04:59,299
{\an8}but we fought so that the children
could be free of those feelings forever.
50
00:04:59,882 --> 00:05:00,883
Kanon...
51
00:05:00,967 --> 00:05:04,554
The Demon King of Atrocity
gave his life to bring peace.
52
00:05:04,637 --> 00:05:09,517
Why must we begin preparing
to fight them again?
53
00:05:11,561 --> 00:05:12,770
I'm sorry this had to happen.
54
00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:28,119
{\an8}It is not over.
Not until the Demon King is truly slain.
55
00:05:30,705 --> 00:05:35,710
{\an8}In the end, Kanon was betrayed
and killed by those he trusted the most
56
00:05:36,377 --> 00:05:39,047
and he never appeared again.
57
00:05:39,130 --> 00:05:42,925
Maybe he lost faith in humanity.
58
00:05:43,551 --> 00:05:46,554
So he disappeared
without reviving or reincarnating.
59
00:05:46,637 --> 00:05:50,391
You said that Zelga's essence
was bound into two spells?
60
00:05:51,017 --> 00:05:52,435
Are you the other spell?
61
00:05:52,518 --> 00:05:53,853
Yes,
62
00:05:53,936 --> 00:05:56,314
but I'm a failure.
63
00:05:56,397 --> 00:05:57,565
A failure?
64
00:05:57,648 --> 00:06:00,651
All of his hate was taken by Ask.
65
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:04,197
I don't have many
of General Zelga's memories.
66
00:06:04,864 --> 00:06:08,910
My purpose was only
to create cloned essences.
67
00:06:09,952 --> 00:06:15,083
They have no emotions. They can't speak.
They live only to fight and disappear.
68
00:06:16,459 --> 00:06:18,795
As things are, no one can be happy.
69
00:06:19,337 --> 00:06:24,342
That's why I had long wished
for someone like you to appear, Anos.
70
00:06:26,719 --> 00:06:29,013
{\an8}Would you mind if I asked you a favor?
71
00:06:29,097 --> 00:06:30,348
{\an8}What is it?
72
00:06:30,973 --> 00:06:33,267
I want you to destroy me.
73
00:06:33,351 --> 00:06:35,436
You can do that, right, Anos?
74
00:06:36,187 --> 00:06:37,522
Is that what you want?
75
00:06:38,272 --> 00:06:44,987
I've killed scores
of my own children for 2,000 years.
76
00:06:45,571 --> 00:06:51,244
If my children could speak,
I know they wouldn't forgive me.
77
00:06:51,327 --> 00:06:52,370
It's fine.
78
00:06:57,375 --> 00:06:58,626
Zexia?
79
00:07:09,303 --> 00:07:11,472
Help.
80
00:07:12,557 --> 00:07:14,225
{\an8}Save Mama.
81
00:07:14,308 --> 00:07:15,810
{\an8}Help.
82
00:07:16,978 --> 00:07:19,147
But why?
83
00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:21,607
Mama...
84
00:07:25,528 --> 00:07:26,571
But I...
85
00:07:31,951 --> 00:07:34,287
You endured well these past 2,000 years.
86
00:07:34,954 --> 00:07:36,038
Anos?
87
00:07:36,664 --> 00:07:38,583
I will grant you your wish.
88
00:07:39,750 --> 00:07:42,753
You want all of them to be happy, right?
89
00:07:44,672 --> 00:07:45,506
{\an8}Yes.
90
00:07:45,590 --> 00:07:46,674
{\an8}Please.
91
00:07:46,757 --> 00:07:48,468
{\an8}I promise you that.
92
00:07:50,261 --> 00:07:52,638
What business do you have with Eleonore?
93
00:07:54,974 --> 00:07:57,351
So he's an essence clone too?
94
00:07:57,435 --> 00:07:58,269
Yes.
95
00:07:58,352 --> 00:08:00,771
Diego is responsible for spreading Ask.
96
00:08:00,855 --> 00:08:03,983
So long as I exist, he'll come back again.
97
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:13,784
It can't be!
98
00:08:19,999 --> 00:08:21,834
Intruder alert!
99
00:08:22,418 --> 00:08:23,252
Those are...
100
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:25,129
Medoin Gasa!
101
00:08:25,213 --> 00:08:27,006
Zorro Angart!
102
00:08:27,089 --> 00:08:28,883
Eldra Zaia!
103
00:08:28,966 --> 00:08:31,844
The Seven Ancients!
Call for assistance at once!
104
00:08:31,928 --> 00:08:33,679
So you want Evansmana?
105
00:08:38,100 --> 00:08:39,393
It's futile!
106
00:08:39,477 --> 00:08:42,647
No demon could draw
the Holy Sword of Kanon!
107
00:08:43,397 --> 00:08:44,565
Impossible!
108
00:08:46,567 --> 00:08:48,236
Kill them and take it back!
109
00:08:50,780 --> 00:08:54,408
Do it! Damn you, you worthless fools!
110
00:09:08,673 --> 00:09:11,384
If you arrive in the company
of the Seven Ancients,
111
00:09:11,467 --> 00:09:13,052
you have no excuse.
112
00:09:13,135 --> 00:09:14,262
State your name.
113
00:09:15,763 --> 00:09:16,973
We are
114
00:09:17,056 --> 00:09:18,975
Avos Dilhevia.
115
00:09:19,058 --> 00:09:22,186
The Demon King of Atrocity
who shall destroy all.
116
00:09:22,270 --> 00:09:24,897
{\an8}What do you intend
to do with that fraudulent name,
117
00:09:24,981 --> 00:09:26,857
impostor Demon King?
118
00:09:27,358 --> 00:09:28,859
Pathetic.
119
00:09:35,408 --> 00:09:38,244
We shall recreate this world.
120
00:09:38,327 --> 00:09:41,914
A world enveloped with darkness
and demons, as it was meant to be.
121
00:09:42,582 --> 00:09:44,709
The curtains have been drawn.
122
00:09:45,209 --> 00:09:48,379
There is no turning back.
123
00:09:52,967 --> 00:09:54,969
{\an8}History has repeated itself.
124
00:09:55,052 --> 00:09:57,847
The fathomless darkness has returned.
125
00:09:57,930 --> 00:10:00,099
The fathomless darkness
has entered the sanctuary
126
00:10:00,182 --> 00:10:03,894
and stolen the god-protector of Azecion,
127
00:10:03,978 --> 00:10:05,646
the Sword of Spirits, Gods,
and Man, Evansmana.
128
00:10:05,730 --> 00:10:08,899
Yes, the legends were true!
129
00:10:08,983 --> 00:10:11,360
The Demon King of Atrocity has returned!
130
00:10:11,444 --> 00:10:13,487
After 2,000 years!
131
00:10:14,071 --> 00:10:16,365
The Ancestor has returned?
132
00:10:16,449 --> 00:10:21,037
He will lead the demons
to destroy our kingdom,
133
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,747
but do not be alarmed!
134
00:10:23,331 --> 00:10:26,792
We, the Demon King Slaying Force,
shall drop the hammer of justice upon him!
135
00:10:26,876 --> 00:10:29,420
Now is the time to fight!
136
00:10:29,503 --> 00:10:31,922
May the judgment of Heaven
fall upon the Demon King!
137
00:10:32,006 --> 00:10:35,176
May we Heroes be victorious!
138
00:10:37,803 --> 00:10:42,433
We, the Seven Ancients,
hereby declare that
139
00:10:42,516 --> 00:10:46,896
our King has awakened
from his long slumber.
140
00:10:46,979 --> 00:10:50,024
He will now speak
on the hour of his revival.
141
00:10:51,901 --> 00:10:54,195
We are Avos Dilhevia.
142
00:10:54,737 --> 00:10:56,447
The day has finally come!
143
00:10:56,530 --> 00:10:58,366
The Demon King has returned!
144
00:10:58,949 --> 00:11:01,285
We once committed a great error.
145
00:11:01,952 --> 00:11:07,166
We divided the world into four,
granting mercy to humans,
146
00:11:07,792 --> 00:11:11,796
but they have not changed
in these 2,000 years.
147
00:11:12,463 --> 00:11:16,384
They passed down the holy sword
meant to destroy us to this day.
148
00:11:16,967 --> 00:11:21,013
Now we shall make right
our error of 2,000 years.
149
00:11:21,097 --> 00:11:24,141
Gather before me, those who are strong!
150
00:11:24,225 --> 00:11:28,229
We shall destroy
the foolish humans once and for all!
151
00:11:30,356 --> 00:11:31,440
Demon King!
152
00:11:32,149 --> 00:11:34,777
-Demon King!
-Demon King!
153
00:11:34,860 --> 00:11:37,655
-Demon King!
-Demon King!
154
00:11:37,738 --> 00:11:40,741
-Demon King!
-Demon King!
155
00:11:43,369 --> 00:11:44,787
What's the situation?
156
00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:49,500
Most of the Demon Lords
have already gathered under Avos Dilhevia.
157
00:11:50,167 --> 00:11:52,253
They are advancing toward the border.
158
00:11:52,336 --> 00:11:56,966
The Demon King Slaying Force
appears to be advancing to meet them.
159
00:11:57,049 --> 00:12:01,387
This is a battle I was meant
to fight 2,000 years ago.
160
00:12:01,470 --> 00:12:03,889
You don't need to follow me into it.
161
00:12:03,973 --> 00:12:09,270
How could we leave these lawless
fools to sully our liege's name?
162
00:12:09,979 --> 00:12:11,522
We are at your command, my liege.
163
00:12:14,483 --> 00:12:16,277
You're taking me with you too, right?
164
00:12:16,861 --> 00:12:18,863
You were the one
who asked me to join your team.
165
00:12:19,447 --> 00:12:21,866
You gave me my life, Anos.
166
00:12:22,408 --> 00:12:25,369
This life will always be with you.
167
00:12:25,995 --> 00:12:27,413
We'll fight too!
168
00:12:27,955 --> 00:12:29,373
We're friends after all.
169
00:12:33,127 --> 00:12:34,170
Good servants.
170
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:37,006
Good friends. I've been blessed.
171
00:12:38,674 --> 00:12:42,553
We leave at dawn. Rest yourselves well.
172
00:12:58,777 --> 00:12:59,653
Feeling worried?
173
00:13:00,654 --> 00:13:02,364
It's written on your face.
174
00:13:03,824 --> 00:13:06,076
I keep envisioning such terrible things.
175
00:13:06,994 --> 00:13:11,081
If anything happens
to the others or to you, Lay...
176
00:13:14,418 --> 00:13:15,920
I'm sorry.
177
00:13:16,420 --> 00:13:20,007
{\an8}This won't be too bad.
At least, compared to 2,000 years ago.
178
00:13:20,090 --> 00:13:20,925
What?
179
00:13:22,092 --> 00:13:25,095
I think I fought back then.
180
00:13:26,096 --> 00:13:27,097
Could that be why?
181
00:13:27,932 --> 00:13:29,517
I'm not anxious at all.
182
00:13:50,454 --> 00:13:51,747
Mind if I take one?
183
00:13:51,830 --> 00:13:56,710
What? But they said
that would be like a proposal.
184
00:13:57,294 --> 00:13:58,128
I know.
185
00:13:59,338 --> 00:14:00,172
Lay...
186
00:14:01,257 --> 00:14:03,634
{\an8}I'll come back for sure,
187
00:14:04,218 --> 00:14:05,135
back to you.
188
00:14:19,275 --> 00:14:21,443
You know what we have to do?
189
00:14:21,527 --> 00:14:25,656
Prevent the Dilhade and Demon King
Slaying Force from engaging in combat.
190
00:14:25,739 --> 00:14:27,408
Neutralize both forces.
191
00:14:27,491 --> 00:14:31,036
And find a way
to remove the hate from Ask.
192
00:14:31,620 --> 00:14:32,496
This is an order.
193
00:14:33,372 --> 00:14:34,290
Do not die.
194
00:14:34,373 --> 00:14:35,374
Do not kill.
195
00:14:35,916 --> 00:14:40,087
We cannot lose a single life
over this stupid squabble.
196
00:14:43,757 --> 00:14:48,679
Azecion's Demon King Slaying Force
are in formation to intercept,
197
00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:54,977
but we will take down
the Dilhade Forces first.
198
00:14:55,603 --> 00:14:58,397
We don't know
what Avos Dilhevia intends to do.
199
00:14:58,981 --> 00:15:00,816
Forward! The main force is directly ahead!
200
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:02,359
Misha and Sasha,
201
00:15:02,443 --> 00:15:05,404
you prevent the forces in the west
from rendezvousing with the main force.
202
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,294
{\an8}You won't take another step forward.
203
00:15:20,377 --> 00:15:21,462
{\an8}Here's all you need to know!
204
00:15:21,545 --> 00:15:23,047
Our Demon King
205
00:15:23,130 --> 00:15:26,050
{\an8}-doesn't want a stupid war!
-Doesn't want a stupid war!
206
00:15:30,554 --> 00:15:33,057
Fan Union, you support
from the rear lines.
207
00:15:33,891 --> 00:15:36,769
Lay and Misa, you disrupt
the forces in the east.
208
00:15:42,107 --> 00:15:43,901
Don't let them cross the border!
209
00:16:04,964 --> 00:16:05,798
Lay.
210
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:07,675
Thanks.
211
00:16:13,305 --> 00:16:14,473
Reinforcements?
212
00:16:15,766 --> 00:16:17,142
It seems that they're experienced.
213
00:16:17,726 --> 00:16:18,644
Hide somewhere.
214
00:16:19,561 --> 00:16:20,396
But I...
215
00:16:32,366 --> 00:16:35,828
Melhace, you and the others
suppress the Seven Ancients.
216
00:16:36,537 --> 00:16:38,288
Avos Dilhevia
217
00:16:38,372 --> 00:16:39,957
is mine to fight.
218
00:16:40,791 --> 00:16:44,253
He is likely in that castle.
219
00:16:49,967 --> 00:16:51,385
We're under attack!
220
00:16:51,468 --> 00:16:54,013
The Demon King Slaying Force?
When did they get here?
221
00:16:54,096 --> 00:16:56,724
No, they aren't humans!
222
00:16:57,349 --> 00:16:59,435
The Seven Ancients?
223
00:16:59,518 --> 00:17:00,894
It's Melhace and the others!
224
00:17:03,564 --> 00:17:05,941
Tell this to Avos Dilhevia.
225
00:17:06,025 --> 00:17:08,318
These are the real Demon King's forces.
226
00:17:08,402 --> 00:17:12,906
The Seven Ancients would
never oppose the Demon King of Atrocity!
227
00:17:12,990 --> 00:17:13,907
Charge!
228
00:17:15,826 --> 00:17:18,037
{\an8}If you don't understand,
then I will explain.
229
00:17:18,120 --> 00:17:19,913
This is true power!
230
00:17:28,255 --> 00:17:29,339
So they're coming.
231
00:17:29,423 --> 00:17:31,675
Please leave them to us.
232
00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:33,844
You must confront him in his castle.
233
00:17:33,927 --> 00:17:35,054
{\an8}Of course.
234
00:17:42,686 --> 00:17:44,605
I suppose this is an invitation to enter.
235
00:17:44,688 --> 00:17:45,522
Lord Anos!
236
00:17:47,357 --> 00:17:48,817
Lay is...
237
00:17:49,693 --> 00:17:51,612
Lay is missing!
238
00:17:53,155 --> 00:17:54,156
Lay?
239
00:17:54,698 --> 00:18:01,622
Lord Anos, we have captured
Medoin, Zorro, and Eldra.
240
00:18:01,705 --> 00:18:06,376
They should have the essences
of Avos's servants fused to theirs.
241
00:18:08,754 --> 00:18:13,342
It appears that the essences have
abandoned their host bodies and escaped.
242
00:18:13,425 --> 00:18:17,012
Will you leave Avos Dilhevia for later?
243
00:18:17,096 --> 00:18:20,432
No, he's not in this castle.
244
00:18:39,493 --> 00:18:41,662
I thought I'd find you here.
245
00:19:21,118 --> 00:19:22,536
It's been 2,000 years,
246
00:19:23,162 --> 00:19:24,246
Hero Kanon.
247
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:29,710
No, that isn't quite right.
248
00:19:29,793 --> 00:19:33,547
You had already arrived
to fulfill your end of our promise.
249
00:21:26,743 --> 00:21:28,954
How did you know?
250
00:21:29,538 --> 00:21:31,790
I thought I fooled you
into thinking I was Shin.
251
00:21:31,873 --> 00:21:33,166
This.
252
00:21:34,501 --> 00:21:36,795
You weren't supposed to have
memories of your past life,
253
00:21:36,878 --> 00:21:40,424
but you called this necklace
a "one-shell necklace."
254
00:21:41,591 --> 00:21:45,554
Unless you knew the legend
about this necklace in Azecion,
255
00:21:45,637 --> 00:21:48,056
you couldn't have known it
and called it a "one-shell."
256
00:21:48,765 --> 00:21:52,519
Which meant that
you had memories from your past life
257
00:21:52,602 --> 00:21:55,439
and for some reason, you were hiding that.
258
00:21:56,982 --> 00:21:59,526
Shin would never lie to me.
259
00:21:59,609 --> 00:22:01,737
Then in that case, who were you?
260
00:22:01,820 --> 00:22:05,532
No other demon could use
the Wholehearted Sword or holy swords,
261
00:22:06,116 --> 00:22:11,121
but what if the great Hero
had reincarnated as a demon?
262
00:22:11,204 --> 00:22:13,498
It wouldn't be strange
for him to wield both.
263
00:22:14,041 --> 00:22:15,167
I see.
264
00:22:17,836 --> 00:22:20,047
I couldn't be certain though.
265
00:22:20,714 --> 00:22:24,676
If you were Kanon, you would have
no reason to hide your identity.
266
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,053
Normally, anyway.
267
00:22:27,262 --> 00:22:30,140
Perhaps you were afraid of being asked?
268
00:22:30,932 --> 00:22:35,353
You only have one essence.
What happened to the other six?
269
00:22:35,854 --> 00:22:41,693
Avos Dilhevia fused essences with
the Seven Ancients, apart from Melhace.
270
00:22:41,777 --> 00:22:44,821
Including you,
there would be a total of seven.
271
00:22:44,905 --> 00:22:47,324
The same number as the Hero Kanon.
272
00:22:47,908 --> 00:22:54,414
You didn't want me to know that you were
pretending to be this false Demon King,
273
00:22:55,082 --> 00:22:57,709
but there were many things
you couldn't foresee.
274
00:22:58,710 --> 00:23:03,173
Misha being born through Dino Jixis
and the Magic Sword Tournament
275
00:23:03,256 --> 00:23:05,926
could not have been part of your plans.
276
00:23:06,009 --> 00:23:11,932
I don't know why, but I doubt the tears
you shed saving your mother were fake.
277
00:23:12,015 --> 00:23:13,767
You're right.
278
00:23:13,850 --> 00:23:17,479
Then even now, as you pretend
to be a false Demon King,
279
00:23:17,562 --> 00:23:19,940
there's something you're trying to save.
280
00:23:21,066 --> 00:23:23,860
{\an8}Kanon, what happened 2,000 years ago?
281
00:23:24,444 --> 00:23:26,071
Exactly what you said would happen.
282
00:23:26,613 --> 00:23:29,616
Humans were too weak, Anos.
283
00:23:32,035 --> 00:23:35,330
