Episode 3

The dragon rajas can be seen in some parts of history.

Generations of effort and sacrifice have brought us to this moment,

the death of a revived dragon king.

For now, there is no need to sorrow for us.

They can learn about the hard truths later.

They're burning with passion to kill dragons, and a sense of duty...

isn't that wonderful?

I want to protect those feelings.

Episode 3: A Birthday Cake Is the Gravestone of Youth

Have you encountered unknown dragons?

Cassel College Vacation Survey

Would dragons really be around on a clear day like today?

Have you used your Yanling?

I wish I could.

Mingze's a jerk.

He made me pay a quarter of my life, and I only got to use it once.

Just one time!

Is there any point in this survey?

Mingfei!

Go buy some sausage and onions!

And see if there are any packages too!

Got it! I'll go now!

Dear Ricardo...

The data says that your birthday is July 17th.

You'll be 19 today.

On this important day,

allow me to wish you a happy birthday on behalf of the principal and professors.

Sincerely, Norma.

Birthday... That's right, it's my birthday!

Senpai?

Chu Zihang

Happy Birthday.

Did I ever give him my contact info?

Chen Wenwen?

Lu Mingfei... It's been a while.

The literature club is having a luncheon at 11:30 today.

Would you come too, please?

Lunch...

Sure.

I feel kind of pathetic, but...

I do need to say goodbye to my past.

Mingfei!

You haven't left yet?

Sorry! I'll go right now!

Our toilet lid cracked. Go buy a new one.

And cut the carrots and onions!

And steam the sausage, too!

I'll be back by 4:30.

We'll be celebrating Mingze's becoming an exchange student tonight.

Now get going!

Okay!

South Station

It's shaking...

The ground...

Is it an earthquake?

There was no warning!

Help me! I don't want to die!

Save me!

What happened?

Message from the school council.

SS-rank. The highest level.

What happened?

A top-secret document owned by the Shin Council has disappeared.

It was something that required complex planning and effort to acquire.

It was to be brought back by someone who could be trusted...

But it disappeared along the way.

Norma.

This...

I know this building!

It's the south station!

The one near Mingfei's home!

A magnitude 2 earthquake destroyed it this morning.

Raymond, the man responsible for the document,

was carrying it while waiting for a train.

But he was crushed by the collapsing building, and the document disappeared.

Horrible...

The council wants it back by 1900 local time.

We don't have time to send an investigation force.

We'll send agents who are nearby.

Who?

A-rank Chu Zihang and S-Rank Lu Mingfei.

They're strong enough.

And both of them are in Shin for summer vacation.

Yes, professor?

Emergency mission. SS-rank.

SS?

You need to recover a secret document by 1900 today.

Norma has sent you the details by mail.

I have a flight to An for both you and Lu Mingfei waiting.

Return as soon as the mission is complete.

Lu Mingfei?

S-rank Lu Mingfei will be the executor for this mission.

You are to support him and follow his orders.

Understood.

Hey, Lu Mingfei. Did you hit your head or something?

No.

So why do you have a toilet seat?

It's more comfortable to bring your own, right?

Is that what you learn at elite universities?

You're studying toilet seats overseas, huh? Wow.

That's our Lu Mingfei.

One moment.

It's perfect for him.

Sure is.

Zhao Mengfa.

Don't just fling open the door like that!

Is that bad?

It sure is!

You did it deliberately, didn't you?

Maybe?

Lu Mingfei.

It's been a while.

It sure has.

I gotta use the can.

Oh, boss, you're here!

Over here, boss!

Let's order some food! I'm starving! I could eat a horse!

It's only been a semester, and I have no idea what to say to them.

A message from Finger?

Finger

Happy Birthday to you!

Happy, happy every day!

Happy Birthday Mingfei!

Hey! Hey!

My own original composition.

As you know, I'm broke, so don't expect a present that costs money.

I'm surprised he remembered...

Hey.

Don't follow me.

Listen to me.

You've got it all wrong.

What's your problem? You're following me everywhere.

You haven't told her yet?

What are those two doing in the boys bathroom?

We've already broken up. There's nothing left to say to her.

Then I'll tell her!

Don't! If you do,

she'll just start giving me a hard time everywhere I go again.

I'm just sick of her.

Once you break up with me, you'll be saying the same thing about me, right?

That's not true.

I'm never going to break up with you.

Aww, stop. There's people around.

Get off me. What if someone sees us?

Let's head back.

Yeah. I'm hungry.

I'm not invisible, you know.

Don't flirt in front of me!

"Her" would've been Chen Wenwen, right?

He broke up with her already, huh?

The world's not fair. Zhao Mengfa gets all the girls.

Well, not my problem.

This pizza's good. Eat up.

I'm good. I've been putting on weight lately.

Let me pour you a drink, then.

I can do it myself.

Okay, everybody's here.

I'm going to take this opportunity to make a declaration.

Declare what?

Is that...

Liu Miaomiao will be mine forever.

We're getting engaged.

Hey, no fair, taking her from us like that!

So that's why we're here today? Nice work, boss!

Put the ring on!

Yeah, take a picture.

Yes, let's!

This has to hurt to see.

We can post it online!

That's a great idea!

Boss, congratulations!

Be happy!

They both look so happy!

Great work, boss!

Enough!

Lu Mingfei?

It's got nothing to do with you!

Yeah, it doesn't.

But if you're happy, then be kind to others!

Doing this right in front of your ex...

You're doing it just to hurt her, right?

What?

He's a classmate! Calm down!

Bring it!

Calm down...

Forget it. Just ignore that loser.

Well, whatever. I'll let it go.

Bring me the check! I'm paying by card!

We'll have Italian for dinner somewhere else!

Here's your check.

He pays separately.

Do you have the money?

I'll pay the bill.

With my card!

An S-Rank Cassel College student ID

has a spending limit of no less than 100,000 dollars.

Authorization failed.

The card doesn't work.

Maybe the signal's bad here?

Try again.

Authorization failed.

I'm telling you, it's real!

One more time...

Hey, Mingfei. Why not wash the dishes or repair the toilet seat?

Do you have another way to pay?

No, I don't have anything left on my phone balance...

I'll pay with cash.

S-Senpai?

Will foreign currency work?

Yes.

Here. No change needed.

That's so much money...

Thank you.

What are you doing here, Senpai?

We have an emergency mission.

Let's go, boss.

"Boss"? Why?

Who are you?

Chu Zihang. We went to high school together.

Chu Zihang...

Chu Zihang? No way...

Chu Zihang works for Lu Mingfei?

Boss, the car is waiting.

Let's go then.

Oh, the toilet seat.

I'll carry it.

Lu Mingfei is making Chu Zihang carry a toilet seat...

It's only thanks to senpai and the others that I can stand tall...

I want to be able to do it on my own...

Thanks for playing along...

I'll pay you back later.

We have a mission from the college.

I'm your assistant.

Calling you "boss" wasn't a lie.

Mission? I'm the boss?

All I can do is make jokes...

And by tonight?

This looks hard, too...

They think I'm a lot more capable than I am.

I was listening for two minutes, back there.

He may be handsome, but that's kind of scummy!

You were eavesdropping?

You liked Chen Wenwen, didn't you?

No, um...

Everyone knows.

Impossible! I did a great job of hiding it!

You can put your foot on the dash, but it's dangerous while we're driving.

Sorry...

No, I only brought it up because you weren't saying anything.

Could we talk about something a little more normal?

She was only pretending not to notice how you felt.

She was using you like a tool. Why defend her now?

She was never that mean to me.

I was the one who fell in love with her...

Zhao Mengfa knows that Chen Wenwen still likes him.

That's why he still wants to have her all to himself.

He broke up with her, but can't stand to see another person defending her.

Why did you help her?

Because I'm stupid.

I couldn't bear to see it.

You've never been pathetic like me, so you wouldn't understand.

Get out.

Now.

Okay.

Wait here. I'll be right back.

Hey!

It's too hot...

Let's get some ice cream.

That sounds great.

That's what you get for dressing like that...

I look great, though!

You used to have a crush on Chu Zihang, right?

Yeah, but our eyes have never even met.

Why would somebody so handsome be working for Lu Mingfei?

We're almost there.

I'll let you eat as much as you want.

Is that Chu Zihang?

Why'd he come back?

Chen Wenwen.

I have an invitation from Lu Mingfei.

The location is Ristorante Aspasia.

The time is 6:30. That's his message for you.

What will you do?

I'll go.

This is the address.

Goodbye.

I'm glad he didn't just abandon me by the side of the road...

I guess I misunderstood him!

Senpai, you're a great driver, huh?

I learned from my dad.

Is it your birthday today?

Oh, right, it is!

I was in tears at the message you sent!

It's your birthday, and you went out to buy a toilet seat?

I'm not her kid, so my aunt forgot.

How do you spend your birthdays?

Party. Cake. Present.

The same every year.

Do you like Italian?

I've never had it.

I do like meat.

I see.

Hello? Can I make a reservation?

For two, tonight.

I'm sorry, but the place is booked tonight.

Is there a private room?

Sorry, try somewhere else.

Thank you.

Why not go to a different restaurant?

I already invited her. I can't do that.

Get me Finger.

Hello!

What can I do for you?

Finger. I'm offering a bounty with my Murasame ID.

Upload it for me.

Chu Zihang has uploaded a bounty!

Tonight; 6:30 PM, Ristorante Aspasia...

Coordinates: longitude 119.28439, latitude 26.08774.

He'll trade a favor for a reservation.

Is this real?

From Chu Zihang! Incredible!

It's a pretty famous place. If you had connections...

It's worth trying. Let's go for it.

This sounds hard.

Young master, a call for you.

It's from a leader at the Student Union, they say.

Who is it?

Your loyal servant, Finger.

What do you want?

Boss, Chu Zihang put up a bounty.

He did?

Whoever gets Lu Mingfei a reservation at Ristorante Aspasia

can request anything of him, as long as it's not a crime.

So you'll be able to get his help whenever you need it.

Ridiculous. Lu Mingfei is a member of the Student Union.

No matter what he wants, I will get it for him.

Call the Mint Club. Reserve seats at Ristorante Aspasia.

Tell them to provide the best seats, the best chef, and the best service.

The best experience possible.

Yes, sir.

And when it's ready, send a message to Lu Mingfei.

Reservation secured for 6:30 PM

Caesar-senpai?

Happy Birthday.

Birthday messages from the leaders

of both the Student Union and the Lionheart Society...

It's a weird world.

Some people treat me like dirt, and some treat me like I'm made out of gold...

Where are we going, senpai?

The south station.

Some documents have been stolen.

We're scoping out the scene.

Is that gonna take long?

I can't be home late.

I need to repair the toilet and get the sausage and onions ready...

I can send professionals to do that if needed.

Oh... if you would.

The new security shift is just about to start its patrol.

This is the one route that will get us inside undetected.

It got crushed.

What kind of earthquake was this?

I didn't feel it at all.

Yes, it's unimaginable.

The station was built to withstand up to a magnitude 6 quake.

And today's was only a magnitude 2.

It's impossible that it could've collapsed.

Yeah, that is weird.

Let's go inside.

Okay.

Do you like your whiskey on the rocks?

Or should I order a hamburger meal?

Where are the documents?

Goal: Annihilation of the Dragon Kings

Nibelunge Plan

The Nibelunge Plan. A surprise.

Now I can use my "key".

Nibelunge Plan Candidate

To think that dragon bones were hidden beneath the college...

That's an unexpected bit of information.

I can finally reunite with an old friend.

I took a big risk going to the south station to get them.

Shut up.

You've done well. Very well.

Hey, you're not taking them.

A postal worker will be here at 7 to receive them.

If he doesn't get them... you'll regret it.

There's three hours until 7.

So in three hours, I'll be free from this business forever, huh?
