Ouch, it hurts.

Shania packed quite a real punch.

Well, still kicking?

Count your blessings then.

I suppose I owe you a thanks.

Quite the spontaneous act

to rescue a stranger like me.

Well, then,

how're you gonna repay me for being your lifesaver?

Offer myself to you.

How about it?

That's settled then.

Welcome to the Shade of Blessing.

Was that some kind of interview?

Just stay put and rest up here for now.

Next time,

I'll introduce you to the others.

You just left like that?

Well.

Since you're eager to look for it,

then

I'll join you for the fun!

Dang it. I forgot to ask her name.

(The Void's Edge)

(Chief Director Baxi)

(Episode 2)

Quit ducking and diving.

Just surrender!

You guys sure are hard to shake off.

Hey!

Why are you chasing after me?

I suspect you're involved with the Shade of Blessing.

The Shade of Blessing?

You're surrounded.

Best to throw in the towel.

I really have no idea what the Shade of Blessing is!

Then don't blame me for getting rough!

You guys are just being so unfair!

Go!

Found you.

Commander.

Is that girl really connected to the Shade of Blessing?

We'll find out once our Envoy

brings her back.

You're here.

May I ask

why you approved the deployment of the peacekeeping force

to assist the military forces from Black Isle, sir?

Well, since Black Isle's on our side.

Nabbing any lurking threats

is also crucial for Sandbar's security, right?

The intel suggests

these people are only targeting Black Isle.

Seems like an internal conflict to me, sir.

No need for us to get involved.

Given the current situation,

it's best not to directly refuse Black Isle's request.

Let's not give them any reasons to send troops to Sandbar.

Is that what Black Isle's top brass is after?

As long as the fighting doesn't spill over to Sandbar.

I believe

Black Isle's frontliners will handle things with care.

Captain

Mindy doesn't have any duty today?

I guess she is in the cafeteria right now.

Oh.

Really?

(General's Manor)

Finally ditched them!

Where's that guy dad mentioned?

Guess I'll just make do for the night.

It seems a lost kitten has wandered in.

A hungry one.

You got some skills, young lady.

Good to see you.

Madam.

Come in.

I'm so full!

Madam,

thanks for the yummy food!

What's your name,

young lady?

I'm Shania.

And yours?

Madam.

You can call me "Granny Nine".

Granny Nine.

You also smell of a trustworthy man.

Shan.

Why would you want to sleep in a tree?

Uh, the truth is

there's a bunch of people after me,

so I thought I'd just hide up in a tree.

I guess it's just a misunderstanding.

Just clear it up, and it'll be fine.

Conflicts between people

can be resolved through communication.

You seem like you're not from around here.

Can you tell that?

I come from what you call the Void.

So,

that thing was also brought from the Void?

Are you interested in it too?

This is the last thing my dad left me.

Shan.

You haven't settled in Sandbar yet.

Why not just stay here from now on?

No, I can't.

I still need to look for something.

What things?

How should I put this?

I'm out here looking for the one who can save the world.

The one who can save the world?

Granny Nine.

Have you ever heard of Red Shadow?

It's getting late.

You can spend the night here.

Thank you, Granny Nine.

Take Sandbar as your own home.

Dad,

Sandbar, as you mentioned, is not bad.

My outfit looks quite good on you, doesn't it?

Granny Nine.

Thank you for taking care of me.

I will repay you some other day.

Seeing you while I'm still around.

That's the best reward I could hope for.

Then I shall take my leave now.

Goodbye!

She is quite interesting.

Make sure to take good care of her.

Got it.

It's just a misunderstanding.

Just clear it up, and it'll be fine.

I guess this is what they call walking right into the trap, huh?

She is funny!

I helped you defeat those monsters!

That doesn't mean you're not our enemy.

Now you've got a choice. Either come back with me nicely.

Or...

We'll have to carry you.

Not everyone listens to explanations.

What did you say?

Guess I'll have to explain with my fists.

Whoever wins, calls the shots.

Let's see if you've got what it takes.

Impressive.

Didn't expect to find someone here who's so skilled.

Their strength is neck and neck.

If they both bring their A game,

this fight's gonna be a blast!

Void Singularity!

What an eye-opener.

The Shade of Blessing can even summon Void Singularity.

Hey, Four-Eyes Kevin.

Long time no see.

Who the hell are you?

No one in Sandbar should know that nickname.

Can't even remember old friend, huh?

Cold as ice.

Just like Yuna down there,

tossing aside friends

to cozy up with someone else.

I'm so envious.

I don't know what's happening either, really!

Blessed Ones sighted on Third Street, West.

Everyone, prepare for combat!

Copy that.

(Blessed Ones: Elephantine Type II)

That's...

Mutant Elephantine-type Blessed Ones.

Defensive force field.

Idiot!

This Blessed One isn't an ordinary one.

Its defensive force field can rebound attacks.

And...

It doesn't have the Blessed Eye of ordinary ones.

Report casualties on the scene!

Many haven't evacuated yet.

Set up the defensive barrier immediately!

I wish we could,

but we're short on staff.

Captain,

I'm on the scene too. I'm Tactical Specialist Kevin,

ready to assist with the battle plan.

Another idiot.

The barrier spell is ready.

Barrier spell,

activate.

Then let's do this!

Nailed it!

It's got regeneration power.

This guy's got no weaknesses,

how do we even fight it?

Its defensive force field can't protect two areas at once.

Split up and attack!

Got it.

Splitting up to fight,

suits me just fine.

If this keeps up,

the barrier won't hold for long.

What's its weak spot?

Seems like it's really guarding its head.

Captain,

help me analyze the Blessed One's head.

Found a high-energy source inside.

As expected,

it's hidden inside.

The incision this time is much larger!

One more!

The Blessed Eye is inside its head.

Target its head directly.

You're just talking.

The energy level in its head is spiking.

Retreat now!

Shania!

Yuna!

We pierced through its defensive force field,

but then got attacked by its high-energy cannon.

Doesn't that make it invincible?

The barrier

can only hold for another minute at most.

Shania.

Yuna.

We're running out of time.

Its defensive force field and high-energy cannon

can't be activated simultaneously.

Force it to use both at once.

When the defensive force field disappears,

hit its Blessed Eye with long-range attack.

The only way to defeat it

is to seize that moment.

So...

So,

you need one of us to act as bait, right?

We only

have one chance.

Interesting.

Wait,

it should be me.

Yuna, right?

My only weapons are these fists.

Can you handle long-range attacks?

If the long-range attack misses,

you're toast.

No,

I won't die.

Because

I trust you.

No time left!

Please!

The barrier's collapsing.

It's not done yet.

Now's the time.

Hurry!

We've got wounded over here.

Come help quickly!

Hey!

Hey!

I got a name!

My name is Shania!

You're adorable when you smile,

so why the long face all the time?

Are you still gonna run away?

I'm definitely not going back with you guys!

Unless you carry me back!

Rushing in without backup

and risking civilian safety here in Sandbar.

I don't want to see that again.

Frontliner of Black Isle.

Being carried around feels totally awesome!
