Original subtitles

Fushi rescued Bon from the guillotine.

Thank you, Fushi. You saved me.

I…

saved you?

Fushi witnessed Bon take the first step in his new life.

It revealed the purpose of the Nokkers

and the next place they would strike.

Monsters are everywhere! There's nowhere to run to!

Gods, please save us.

Cross the bridge!

Evacuate the city!

Run east! Hurry!

Everyone, to the east!

Sister, I'm scared!

We just need to hold on until Father comes for us.

Father!

It can't be…

We have to go!

Get down!

Run east to the wildlands.

There should be no Nokkers there.

Yes!

Hold on.

Disinfect your wound.

Are you a doctor?

We need your help here too!

This is Elder Gour of the Church of Bennett.

I can't do anything for you, but…

this will at least ease your pain.

I'm sorry…

Thank… you…

Run east! Hurry!

Thank you!

How many people are left?

There are 22,000 concentrated in the center of the city.

This area is dangerous!

Please turn around!

-This is bad. -Yes.

They all believe that the gods will save them.

Two are taking root here.

Bishop!

This church will be protected by the strength of our faith.

Let us pray.

Move closer! Make room for us too!

Let us in too!

It's impossible to fit any more people in here!

The gods have made their selection.

Close the door.

The door mustn't be closed!

Elder Gour?

The Nokkers are already here!

Hurry outside,

or you'll be buried alive here!

Run!

Get out!

One more below you.

Everyone…

I need to blow up the explosives underground!

There's someone here!

Someone… help.

Hang in there! I'm coming for you!

Come on out!

It escaped. Two hundred eight left.

Where are the enemies? The Nokkers?

"The Nokkers were defeated."

"However, Fushi was weakened."

-Hey. -Fushi!

Are you all right?

"This is a message from them."

"If you want them back, you'll have to join the next game."

Game?

You guys! You're heretics, aren't you?

Don't sully the sacred grounds of the church! Get out of here!

Stop that.

If you want to protect your sacred grounds,

take back those words.

March.

I remember.

Parona?

Tonari?

I remember.

Ligard?

So you lost Uroy, Gugu, Shin, Parona, and Ligard.

You really can't remember them?

You wrote this note down because you were afraid you would lose them.

But it was still no use.

Even after seeing the note,

I can't conjure up anything but blurry figures in my mind.

Our greatest loss was that fire-breathing man.

The enemy will appear indefinitely.

We lost five forms in one battle.

Will we be able to win?

I will get them back.

How?

I still have things to do.

It escaped. Two hundred eight left.

What should I say to them at a time like this?

They were happy in this world.

Surely they will find happiness in the other too.

They will find happiness in the other too…

There's no way I can say that!

Damn it!

I'm sorry.

Is that your family?

No. I'm alone.

After we talked last night,

a lot of people ran out of the church.

You must've helped.

Thank you.

No, I didn't do anything.

If we can find happiness in death,

then why are we alive?

To find the answer to that question.

That is my personal opinion.

Perhaps there is a better answer.

Is your leg all right?

You're hurt.

Did you not notice that?

Joaan, come over here. I need to have a word with you.

Take these.

Thank you. May fortune favor you.

It told me their next target.

Hey, Fushi!

I'll leave the rest to you!

Hey… Wait!

Would you normally return a vessel you tried so hard to get your hands on?

If it were me, I would hide underground.

This is the place, right?

Yes.

I should've gotten a pigeon from the city.

It's coming.

Over there!

I don't have enough strength.

No!

Where is it?

Don't even think about it!

No! I can't move.

I can't win!

Someone…

The horse? How?

That hurts…

Did this horse come all the way here to save me?

What are you?

It is a horse made from your flesh.

It does not have your abilities,

but it is resilient.

You created it?

I prepared it a long time ago.

I was going to give it to you when you needed it.

But even if you give me a horse…

More importantly, I still have to deal with that Nokker

and take it down this time!

That hurts! What are you doing?

Knock it off! If you don't stop, I won't take care of you!

Are you telling me not to go?

It's true that if I go back there recklessly,

I won't stand a chance against it.

But what should I do?

The mud in the swamp will immobilize me,

and I can't even fight back.

I might be able to use this to defend myself.

Now that I think about it,

the Nokkers stopped coming after me when I was sealed in that iron prison too.

Can they not pierce through iron?

How should I attack then?

The explosive arrows are useless against the Nokker in the swamp.

If only I could sense where they're hiding…

Black-hooded guy.

Do I have the ability to detect the Nokkers' location as you do?

Yes, but you'll need to expand your sensory cortex.

What's that?

I'll explain.

Close your eyes.

I've removed a part of you.

Tell me what is missing.

But I didn't feel any pain.

Concentrate and you should be able to feel what is missing.

Concentrate…

The end of the rope?

Correct.

Look here.

This thin layer of membrane.

It's connected to me. My gloves and other things are connected too.

There are exceptions as well.

All matters you create are connected to you.

As long as they are connected to this membrane,

you can continue to create things at their ends.

This ability is proportional to your sensory cortex.

If you create land from the end of the rope,

that will become your territory.

So if I create a huge ship,

I can sense anything that touches it?

As long as you are connected to it, yes.

With training, your senses will become even sharper.

If that's the case…

The sensation of the water and mud are weak.

It looks like I won't be able to create that swamp.

Though, I can make rocks and trees.

But what should I do from here?

How can I fight the Nokker hiding in the swamp?

Did you catch that?

Sorry, I'm not a big fan of fish.

Amazing! You're good at catching fish!

You're just like…

Just like…

That's right. This might work!

Nokker, I'm back!

Come and get me!

So that's where you were.

I'm going to scoop you out!

That will become your territory.

Yes! I did it!

Pioran…

Thank you, Horse.

Fushi! I've finally found you!

Here. This is the armor I brought.

Please use it.

Thanks, but I've already defeated the Nokker.

I see. That's great.

That means your memories have returned, yes?

No.

You liar! You lied to me!

What do you mean?

The information this thing gave us was false.

The Nokker here didn't have any of the vessels.

How can that be?

"Sorry."

"I was deceived by them too."

Who knows for sure whether you're telling the truth?

Indeed.

Did Mr. Black not tell you anything?

He probably knew, but he didn't.

He always does this.

It says they're going after the town of Buisaille next.

Don't rush into things! Uralis will send an army there.

They won't make it in time!

How many more do you plan to lose in your next battle?

I don't plan on losing any of them!

Are you telling me not to do anything?

You must first become strong enough to protect yourself

before you go off to battle.

Do you want me to stand by and do nothing

for the sake of my immortality?

Why are you restricting me so, Bon?

Because those you've forgotten are incessantly telling me to stop you!

What?

Another is approaching.

It's a Nokker!

I'll fight it!

Kahaku, are you serious?

You can fight, can't you, Left Hand?

Defeat it and regain our trust!

Fushi! How dare you!

You did it, Kahaku!

Well done!

Yes.

"This is a message from them."

"A year from now, we will save all the people of Renril.

"We extend an invitation to you."

"If you do not come…

…we'll kill this traitor and Kahaku."

Renril is one of the continent's largest cities.

For them to strike there

would result in the deaths of at least over 100,000!

One hundred thousand?

We're not strong, and we die easily.

When will this war end?

That day is probably nowhere in sight.

Even if it does come, it is likely to be after we are all dead.

So what should we do? We must bet on our future.

With what?

The lives of people.

Fushi, if you can fight them head-on, then you can resist them.

Do not let them take away those who bet their lives on you.

Do not forget them!

I understand.

Let us devise a plan.

What are you currently working on?

Creating something bigger.

Something bigger?

Something like a ship.

If I can do it, it'll give us the upper hand in the battle.

Got it.

I will prepare everything you need.

You must create it within three months.

Three months?

Yes. Use this time to become stronger.

I will handle the Nokkers

and get the people of Renril to evacuate.

That should be doable, yes?

A city was intended to be built here, so they delivered the materials here,

but the plan was later discontinued.

All of this was left idle here.

You can use everything on the ship as you please.

Really?

Yes.

This will be your new base.

If anything comes up, use this messenger to alert us.

It will bring your message back to Uralis.

Thank you. I will do my best!

Yes.

I look forward to your growth.

I need to make a trip back to Uralis,

but I shall return soon.

Stay alive, Kahaku.

I will.

Even the animals were left behind!

Bon… Kahaku…

I must not waste the time everyone gave me.

From today onwards, I have to work hard on my own.

Sorry, I forgot that you're here.

Let's work hard together.

NEXT EPISODE

The Nokkers have announced an attack a year from now.

Bon hurries to the targeted city, Renril.

Fushi trains alone.

In a display hut, Fushi encounters a mysterious girl.
