Original subtitles

Biscotti has experienced a brief period of peace.

Our Princess should have also been at peace, but there was a sudden declaration of war.

A war where each country wagered their sacred swords.

Our Princess, the Hero, and all of the knights are about to take part in an incredible battle.

Guide me, my ENDLESS LIGHT!

To Shinku

Gotcha! Be careful and don't get hurt! Good luck!

Gotcha! Be careful and don't get hurt! Good luck!

Since I was called here to be the hero of Biscotti,

for the princess that summoned me...

and for this country...

I will fight alongside everyone.

So that everyone participating in this war can smile.

Everyone!

Thank you for coming here this early in the morning!

Today there's an important battle with Galette! Did you all sleep well last night?

Did you eat a full breakfast?

Those who aren't in the army, please clear a path for the knights.

The battlefield this time is near the border between our two countries.

Our headquarters is here, at Fort Cerise.

It will be guarded by the defensive knights and the rear support party.

The main battalion will advance through the Chappal area, and then move toward the Valley of Athletics.

The second battalion will move as quickly as possible. Their goal is to arrive at Galette's floating Fort Grana first.

We're going to try to complete this battle as fast as possible, so we'll be moving fairly quickly.

Those who are not used to battles, cannot keep up the pace, or feel ill, please contact the medical corps.

Now, it's time to form the battalions. Let's go!

Please be careful, Princess.

I'm leaving this place under your care, Elders.

You be careful too, Chairman!

I'll be fine!

Please continue researching ways for the Hero to return to his world while I'm away!

Roger! You can count on us!

In the name of the Law Research Institute.

Princess, Chairman.

The cart is just about ready.

Okay!

It's going to start soon, Rico!

That's right!

By the way, how is the plan going?

It's going perfectly.

We are currently in front of Firianno Castle!

The army has begun moving out for the crucial battle with Galette.

Just look at how many people there are!

There are easily over 20,000 troops!

We don't see these kind of numbers very often!

The entire battalion is following the leader of the knights, Roland Martinozzi!

How's it going over in Galette, Franboise?

Here in Galette, we're just in front of Panettone Castle!

It looks like we have about 23,000 troops! Amazing!

Lord Gaul's army also appears to be ready for battle!

I see!

Everyone should be arriving at the battlefield by early afternoon!

Understood! I, Franboise from the Galette National Broadcast...

...and Percy from the Biscotti National Broadcast, will be reporting on the situation!

Hey Noir, Jaune, I hear that there are places where our powers will be weaker.

They've done some research, so we'll only be fighting in safe locations.

It won't be a problem.

But aren't there ghosts in Fort Grana?

I just can't stand ghosts.

Are you guys stupid?

So what if there are ghosts?

We can just cut them down when they appear.

That'll be the end of it.

You're so reliable, General.

But besides just ghosts and monsters,

we may encounter demons if we're in a place where our powers are weaker.

Demons...

Neither beast nor human, they feed upon the powers of the land.

They bring catastrophe and curses wherever they go.

That's scary too!

No scary stories!

That seems pretty stupid too. Aren't demons supposed to be locked up beneath the earth?

Even though that is said to be true, according to history...

there have been reports of demon sightings all over the continent.

What?!

But apparently there are hunters that seek out and kill these demons.

Hunters of the night who roam around the land, killing them under the moonlight.

Such rubbish.

I don't believe a word of it.

Sounds like you've been reading a few too many picture books.

I heard they exist.

I'm not lying.

General! Don't make Noir feel bad!

What?

Once she starts sulking it goes on forever!

Who cares, you idiot!?

In the end...

I wasn't able to get the true reason out of my sister.

Sorry, Princess, Shinku.

Princess Millhiore and their hero?

Yes, it seems that they will die.

About half a year ago I read in the stars that Millhi might be in danger.

I see.

Then you've been worrying about the Princess all this time, Leo-sama...

It changed to certain death about three months ago.

I realized then that the more I tried to tell them, the worse it got.

Then their hero appeared and the results became clearer.

The one who will die is not Millhiore,

but rather, the owners of Exceleed and Palladion.

I know that reading the future in the stars isn't very accurate.

It is unacceptable to affect my own people or even other countries based on that alone.

Even so, I can't change my feelings.

I've been seeing things too clearly these past few months.

I feel so uneasy.

It's only natural for you to feel that way.

You should have at least told us.

I'm sorry.

My feelings about not affecting our entire country because of some fortune telling still remain,

but if Millhi or the Hero were to die, it would result in despair for both countries.

Because of this,

I have decided to step down from power.

No way!

I will still keep Clanvert,

but I will handle the matter on my own.

If I take the sacred swords from them, perhaps the star readings will change.

What will Galette do without you?

You don't have to do anything.

The power truly lies with Gaul.

I was only ruling in his place until he grew up.

He still hasn't grown up, but he's very talented at getting people to follow him.

If we were to give him responsibilities and guidelines, he would step up and rule the country just fine.

I am fully aware of Gaul's potential and personality...

...but with you stepping down it becomes a completely different story!

Leo-sama! You can't go into your ignore mode!

Her highness won't listen to us like this.

Leo-sama, bad!

Geez.

How does this plan sound, then?

We shall start a battle for each other's sacred swords.

The soldiers are longing to defeat them after two consecutive losses.

It is the perfect time to propose a war.

After winning, we will hide Biscotti's sacred swords in a place nobody can reach.

This is, of course, to prevent theft.

This is not to benefit a certain someone, but rather, to benefit both countries.

How does that sound, Your Highness?

They're making good progress.

Princess Millhiore's cart is advancing quietly, guarded by knights.

The Princess's aiki, Harlan, is following too.

The Princess...!

The Princess is waving to us!

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much, Princess!

A surprise attack such as this goes completely against the rules of war.

I should be the only one blamed for this.

Don't say such things! We're here to help you!

Our battalion is always here to aid you, sister Violet!

Right, everyone?

Yes!

Understood! Our mission is to infiltrate and grab all valuables.

We will sneak into Biscotti's headquarters,

and steal Exceleed, the holy sword!

It seems that Eclair and the Hero are in the same group again.

Yes. Unfortunately, I have to take care of this idiot.

Harsh.

You have to make sure you get along with your partner, Hero.

Why are you telling me that?!

Eclair is the one picking on me.

Shut up, you're the one doing stupid things.

Stupid things?

Well, the Hero did touch her breasts and rip her clothes on the first day they met.

Oh, is that so?

It's a misunderstanding!

How do you even know that, Yukki?

Rico showed me the recordings.

You're so bold, Hero!

It was an unfortunate accident.

There don't seem to be any problems between those two.

Nope.

The other problem is the demons.

We should be fine. The skies are clear today, and the wind is blowing nicely.

Konoha also feels that there is nothing suspicious here.

It is now afternoon and both armies have arrived at the battlefield!

We are awaiting the signal to begin things at Chappal!

All right, we're taking the quickest route as soon as we hear the signal.

Okay.

At the very beginning, everyone will be busy securing the fields and bridges.

No one should be looking for us.

Understood.

Spell Battalion!

Artillery bombing will not be necessary, so please follow us and protect Chairman Elmar!

Roger!

Thank you for waiting, everyone! The signal will be given very soon!

The commentation will be by Elita Sares of Biscotti National Broadcast...

...and Jean Canzoni of Galette National Broadcast.

Now, the countdown is about to begin!

Whether you're watching from home or out on the field, please count down with us!

Let's begin!

Five!

Four!

Three!

Two!

One!

Start!

All troops advance!

Galette Battalion, charge!

Cut through them, Hero!

All right, Captain!

I see some prey!

Surround them, guys!

Th-This isn't what you said would happen!

Bowmen, release!

Hero!

Roger!

L'étoile Double du Vampire!

L'étoile Double du Vampire!

Double Vampire's Star!

Die, Hero!

What? Me!?

Yukikaze style: Single Arrow Flower Storm!

Yukikaze style: Single Arrow Flower Storm!

Yukikaze style: Single Arrow Flower Storm!

Hero!

Yukki!

Don't let your guard down.

Thanks a lot!

Stopping us won't earn you many points!

If you don't want to be knocked out now, then get out of the way!

We can't do that, Captain Saggy Ears.

You're not so important, but if we get Palladion from the Hero,

Her Highness Leo told us that we'd get paid a ton!

What did you say?

You're just in our way right now.

How about providing us with some service, young one?

Get her, you guys!

It's true that I revealed myself back then because of that stupid hero...

However, Eclair Martinozzi...

will never again...

allow such embarrassing things to happen!

Eclair!

I see you're fine, Hero.

This is bad. I, or rather, Palladion, is being targeted!

I know that, but it's too late to change our plans now.

As a safety measure, you shouldn't use Palladion as a weapon.

Right, that's why I picked up this weapon!

All right! Let's blast through everything in our way and move forward!

Roger!

Both armies are fighting vigorously.

Even though it's her first fight in two years, Lord d'Arquien is still as tough as ever!

She's riding through on her aiki, Murakumo!

Panettone is also giving us quite the spectacle!

The medical corps has been very busy wherever those two make a pass. Must be rough.

Well, if you're defeated early, then you can recover early as well.

That's right. Even if you're defeated, I hope you're able to enjoy the rest of the fight!

How are things looking at the front, Percy?

Hello! The Hero, Captain of the knights, Chairman Ricotta, and their army have just passed through the first area!

This is Fran, reporting from the route leading to Fort Cerise!

Gaul's team is just now passing through!

This is a surprising tactic for Gaul, but he's attacking the enemy's rear!

Will he succeed?

Be prepared, everyone!

Yeah!

I have a report, Princess.

There is a messenger from Galette who wishes to speak with you momentarily.

Understood, please let her through.

All right.

I cannot apologize enough for my rudeness, Princess.

But please, listen to our request.

Um, sorry!

I'm not the princess.

Please do not move.

How unfortunate.

I'm sorry for tricking you.

I'll prepare some tea, so please do take your time to speak with us.

A signal from Rico!

So they really did raid the headquarters...

This has confirmed it.

Leo-sama has to be hiding something from me.

She has always played fair when it came to war.

There must be a reason Leo-sama wants to get her hands on the sacred swords so badly.

I have to ask Leo-sama for her reasons.

As the ruler of Biscotti and the owner of Exceleed...

But most importantly,

as someone who cares about Leo-sama so much...!

Jump out to the world that awaits you

zutto kimi wo matteta sekai e tobidashite

I'll guide you through a lost story

annai suru yo yukuefumei ni natta monogatari e

Tomorrow will surely change if you so wish

nozonda no nara kitto asu mo kaerareru hazu

A "thank you" that I was unable to say

ienakatta arigatou da toka

And a "sorry" that I left behind are wandering

otoshita gomen ga samayotte iru

I'm here to pick them up!

mukae ni kita no

The melody into the future resounds

mirai e no melody hibikeba

It's a song for you

sore wa kimi no tame no uta

I really wanted to give it to you

todoketakute todoketakute

Even if I look up at the sky

kono sora miagete

And extend my hands toward it, I feel heartbroken

te wo nobashitemo setsunai kedo

But I want us to be smiling

egao de irareru you ni

If you can hear a distant voice

Reach into your heart and remember me
