It's been a while.

What's the matter?

You're the concubine for the King, right?

A-Amakasu's only been telling people that so...

Looks like things aren't going too well for you.

That's why you've been summoned.

We cannot lose to his Italian mistress.

We need you to please the King, to become his favorite.

I can't do that!

Yuri, have you really fallen in love with the King?

N-No, I just...

Don't worry about it.

I, too, was unsure what to do, when I was ordered to be his concubine.

I have an idea. Why not divide duties?

Divide duties?

You can handle the sex and childbearing.

I'll take care of the rest.

Wha... Huh?

Anyway, Ena here will devise a plan.

So tell me about this King.

Sharpen it

Slash it up

CAMPIONE!

What do you want to know?

Hey, tell me

Prayers don't make it to Heaven

You smiled and all you said was that

You wanted to protect me

The usurper that forces people to know

What it means to be strong

Tell me everything about your soul

Within all the words that make up this legend

There are all of these feelings that connect us

The blade that showed your courage

Open the door and take the miracle

Princess Shrine Maiden of the Long Sword

Here, please have some.

S-Sure... Thank you.

You go to Italy for summer vacation,

and you bring back another cute girl.

Erica and Mariya, what will you do about this?

I'm not sure how to answer that.

Lili is innocent and devoted.

I, Liliana Kranijcar,

have already sworn to share my fate with someone, no matter what.

His name is Godou Kusanagi.

I couldn't possibly think of sitting anywhere other than beside Godou Kusanagi.

Please forgive my selfishness, but it is to advance my mission.

Good morning.

I've come to pick you up.

Every single day, Liliana stops by our house.

I'm sorry, Shizuka.

But Godou was Lili's first...

First?

Brother!

N-No, that's...

Erica, don't tease them too much. N-No, that's...

He is the first master to whom she's freely offered her sword.

I wasn't lying.

Think about my feelings!

Would you like something to drink?

Th-Thank you.

This is pretty good...

Thank you.

You needn't worry. Thank you.

No matter how often Lili offers herself,

she'll never get through to Godou.

There's sauce on your face.

Hold on a second.

It's fine...

I can do it myself.

This falls under my knightly purview.

Please don't move.

If she claims she's doing all this as his knight, he'll take it at face value.

Still, if there were a combination of you both, that might be perfect.

Huh?

After Japanese class, go to the tearoom.

Is something the matter?

Tea Ceremony Club

Tea Ceremony Club You don't have to come with me.

You don't have to come with me.

My duty is to protect you at all times.

Mariya...

And... Do I know you?

Godou Kusanagi, correct?

Nice to meet you.

I am Seishuuin Ena.

Seishuuin?

I am honored by the chance to work so closely with you,

as your new female servant.

Should you desire,

I would be delighted to stay in your favor,

and to stand at your side during your just and mighty rule in the days to come.

Please accept my oath to you.

Right.

Well, thank you for the courtesy.

Just kidding.

I don't really have to talk that way, do 1?

Today, I just wanted to say hello.

To say hello?

Yeah, I've been chosen to marry you, alongside Yuri.

Nice to meet you.

Huh?

I say marriage,

but it doesn't have to be official.

After all, if you had two wives, it'd be polygamy.

Who decided that I'd marry you, anyway?

Oh, come on...

You already have three mistresses.

Where are you getting three?!

There's Erica, my Yuri, and Liliana, sitting right there.

That's three, right?

Wait, isn't there a foreign mistress, also?

They're all just friends!

You really think of Yuri as only a friend?

Yeah.

I see.

Then here's a question for Yuri.

How do you feel about the King?

I-1... Well...

If that's how Godou feels...

Yuri,

you realize that some things can never be taken back, right?

If you back down now, I won't stop you.

However,

I will also never give you another chance.

But if that isn't how you truly feel, I'll support you with all I have.

Decide now, okay?

I feel that...

Go-

I hope you don't mind if I have my say.

Why are you attempting to throw my master's peaceful life into disarray?

What is your objective?

I simply wish to clarify the record, Number 2.

Number 2?

You are the second strongest of the concubines, correct?

I'm able to sense things like that.

Are you calling me inferior to Erica?

In a one-on-one fight, you're about equal.

But your insistence on being a knight throws things off.

Are you trying to insult me?!

Have I misjudged the situation, Erica?

Erica?

I didn't know where Godou had run off to, so I went after him.

But it seems you were having quite an interesting conversation.

I'm glad you're here.

It was my goal to speak with the front runner today.

I'm happy to hear I mean so much to you.

How about we go elsewhere?

Hey, Erica...

We're merely going to talk a little politics.

Leave this one to me, Lili, okay?

Understood.

All right, then.

Let's go and talk.

Erica sure is taking her time.

There is no need for concern.

Negotiation is one of Erica's strengths.

I do not believe she'd run into trouble.

That's true...

Assuming, of course, that everything ends with talk.

Come on...

Oh, you waited for me?

Erica!

You didn't do anything dangerous, did you?

You're acting like I'm some vicious dog.

Anyway, I'm glad you're safe.

I'm pretty tired today...

Want to grab some food?

Sorry, but I need to stop by the shrine.

I-l see.

There's something I wish to ponder for a short while.

Please head home on your own today.

O-Okay...

Want to go home?

Of course...

Or so I'd love to say.

But I'll let her have a turn today.

Her?

Shizuka?

Brother,

who was the new girl you met at tea ceremony club?

H-How do you know about that?

I am in the tea club, you know.

Show me what you're made of, Godou.

E-Eri-

Brother!

I did not expect such resistance.

I'd rather not, but I have no choice.

You want some?

Sure.

Pretty delicious, Shizuka.

Did you want something?

I've come to ask your brother on a date.

Have a good time!

What do you want?

I really am here to ask you out.

You've still never asked me out on a date.

All this time, and you're going on about this?

Yuri and Lili are acting strange.

You have some idea why, don't you?

Why don't you tell me...

Fine...

Hi, Lili.

Your writing going well?

Wh-Wh-What are you talking about?

Knowing you, I'd have imagined that

Godou's every word and act would have given you plenty of material.

Sh-Shut up!

What do you want?

I'll get straight to the point.

I'm going on a date with Godou today.

As it would be rather unrefined and annoying if you followed us, don't.

What...

Wait, what are you talking about?!

Of course I can't stay away!

But you're busy with your writing, right?

Your words have become so much more ardent since you met Godou.

You've read my manuscript again...

I'm proud to have such a talented friend.

You're a demon!

Now, for the next one...

Hello? It's Mariya.

Oh, Yuri? Do you have a minute?

Anyway, I'll be borrowing your brother.

Talk to you later.

Have fun or whatever!

So, Godou...

It's our first date, an occasion to commemorate.

You've thought of what you'd like to do, haven't you?

Godou?

W-Wait! Calm down!

We should discuss this!

I'm thinking right now, so hold on!

I can't believe

you'd be so inconsiderate.

Sorry about that... Stop being so grouchy.

Then hurry and decide where we're going.

Our time today is more precious than gold.

Yeah, but...

I didn't consider what you'd want.

What do you think would be good?

Wh-Why are you making me pick?

Hmm?

One of these days, aren't you going to undress me?

I thought of a place...

I thought of a place we can go,

so hurry and put on some clothes!

Monjayaki Okonomiyaki

Ice Cream

I had a lot of fun.

That's good.

Well, let's go.

Where are you taking me next?

I'd like something other than more food.

Okay...

I guess that means an arcade

or a batting cage...

An amusement park or the aquarium...

So they haven't fixed it yet.

You did a pretty good job, taking that thing down.

I hear the Coliseum and Piazza del Plebiscito

are still undergoing repair, too.

You're leaving your mark around the world...

That doesn't make me happy.

I know...

I thought of a place I want to go.

I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm worried...

Liliana, you won't stay still.

And why are you so calm?!

While we're standing here,

Godou Kusanagi is being deceived by Erica...

Erica wouldn't do something like that.

What's wrong with you?

Do you not care about Godou Kusanagi any longer?

I've fought by his side so many times,

and he thinks we're normal friends.

I was shocked.

However...

To him, a friend means something special.

Someone who's close enough that he'd risk his own life.

Is that what Erica said to you?

Yes.

It's frustrating, but right now, I think Erica is the one who understands

Godou Kusanagi the best.

But...

But...

Quite a vibrant view...

Is it really fun to look at all the destruction I've caused?

That's a weird thing to say.

This is where you fought as a King.

It's basically an historic landmark.

It was always a landmark...

And this is where you and I won our first victory in this country.

I'm very proud of this place.

Erica...

And to dismiss those who helped you gain that victory as "just friends"...

I guess you really are the King.

Sorry... I apologize, okay?

You act without thought or discretion, so at least use your words.

A King... No, a man should tell girls

what they want to hear.

I know that...

And you're all right?

With my lack of thought or discretion?

From the moment I accepted your love,

words have meant nothing to me.

But you have a point.

If you want to tell me in a million words how much I mean to you,

then of course I'll listen.

I bet I'd be the only one in the world

to receive a serenata from a Campione.

Let's go, Godou.

Honestly...

I think that's quite enough,

King.

You're...

Sorry to bother you while you're having fun.

I had something planned with Erica for today.

What?

We're having a one-on-one fight where no one will interrupt us.

That's what we discussed, right?

What?

That's exactly right.

As your wife, this is my duty.

Men are not to interfere!

Hey, Erica...

This is nice...

It looks like I'll actually be able to fight for once.

What's wrong?

Ena is...

She can't be!

Hey, Mariya Yuri!

That isn't a normal katana, is it?

It was forged specially by my gramps.

When I unsheathe it, Yuri gets pretty annoying.

But today, I'll make good use of it.

Hey, you two, stop!

Why are you doing this?

I think that's obvious.

She wants to eliminate me.

A Japanese man should have Japanese mistresses.

That's why you two are...

To a King, it may be no big deal.

But to us, it's quite important!

That's right!

I should have expected no less from the land of the samurai.

I'd not have believed there was a swordsman to equal me.

I'm quite surprised, as well.

This is really fun.

For her to chip the Lion's magic sword...

That must be some type of divine instrument.

You're interested in Ena's katana?

My sword isn't conceding, either.

Arges, Steropes, Brontes!

Lend my sword the blessing of thunder!

I like this...

I'm getting excited!

Stop it!

Godou, that was dangerous!

If I hadn't, you two probably wouldn't have stopped!

I see now.

So that's why Yuri, being Yuri, fell in love with you.

The guy who says, "Don't lay a finger on my girl," huh?

I just don't want anyone to get hurt if I can prevent it.

Aren't you the same way, Seishuuin?

Am 1?

Of course.

Anyway, both of you, put away your swords.

After hearing that, I really don't want to lose.

That katana!

That girl... She can use divine power?

One who can partially channel godly power through her body,

an Advent Mage.

An even rarer power than Yuri's!

That which I worship is not a rogue god.

God who has come to possess this warrior, you should be praised!

I told you to stop!

Godou, you can't be careless!

Get out of my way, King.

What's going on?

Godou!

Where did Godou go?!

Looks like my gramps took him.

Probably somewhere in the intermediate world.

The intermediate world?

You mean the astral plane?

You're saying he's on the border between life and death?

I guess that's another way to put it.

Anyway, let's continue this, Erica!

This katana is one that two heroes wielded to fight rogue gods in this land.

These heroes were not normal warriors.

If required, they would trick their enemies,

proving themselves sly and wise.

So that means your gramps was one of those heroes.

That is correct.

My gramps is named Haya Susano Wo No Mikoto.

And this sword is the Ama no Murakumo.

Now, let us

start this fight once more!

The intermediate world...

The border between life and death.

That means Godou is still alive!

Wait!

So that was her choice...

But I won't let you escape!

Next up is tomorrow's forecast.

Due to an active weather front,

the islands of Japan will probably

receive a large amount of rain, accompanied by lightning.

At least call or something.

Jeez...

Wh-What's going on?

A g-girl...

I apologize for intruding so long past nightfall.

Is Godou Kusanagi in?

CAMPIONE!

A paradise with flowers to pick

All caught up in the wind

A shadow passes through the light

Our simple days change in a flash

The etude has begun and the wings begin to unfold

Where do you want to fight?

Are you going to run away because you're scared?

Which is it? What are you going to do?

You'll ask yourself and decide

Love is a song that won't quit

Love is a door that guides you

Someday you'll overcome

The gods that give you trials and test you

We'll become stronger, raise each other

Move the person who kisses you with emotion

And awaken

With the nameless overflowing power that you have

The era of the rose, fit for a new age

Will become legend

Godou Kusanagi learns the Red Devil's true feelings for him.

And now, the last bit of power...

The Sword of Ama no Murakumo God-slaying King! Young man!

The Sword of Ama no Murakumo
