Hey, kingster! Here's a wish for ya!

Give us power! Power!

Yuke, something's not right.

The spirits are extremely disturbed, too.

Yeah. I can tell.

The air's growing really tense.

A ring?!

It can't be, can it?

You guys put on the rings?

We knew you guys were hidin' somethin',

so we had the king here teach us how to use 'em.

Yeah, I can feel the power surgin' in me!

The power... The power!

I Left My A-Rank Party to Help My Former Students Reach the Dungeon Depths

Episode 15:

Crossing Time

That's right! This magic formula...

Multi-Destruct Magic Formula

It's the Multi-Destruct Magic Formula!

They're using the power to grant wishes!

Don't you remember when we all talked about what those rings are?!

I can make everything go my way.

Ain't that awesome?

This is beyond foolish!

And with all these pretty ladies here, I think I'll enjoy this.

Don't need you, though, so you can die right now.

Get 'im!

On it!

I won't let you!

Pierce, flash of light!

Energy Bolt!

Paralyze!

Paralyze

Wh-What?! How the hell?!

We have the blessing of the gold!

Well, we have the blessing that is Yuke!

What the hell?!

How is this...

Wh-What is this?! What's goin' on?!

So I was right!

Putting on the rings allows the effect of the Sunset to transform them!

Gather up!

Fullbound's turning into monsters!

We don't know what they'll do.

Prioritize staying safe.

Roger that!

Right, got it!

Physical Enchant!

Enhanced Arm Strength

Enhanced Leg Strength

Enhanced Stamina

Glass Shield

Magic Blade!

Marina!

I'm fine!

Gross...

Stay away from me, please!

Pierce, flash of light!

Energy Bolt!

They regenerate so quickly...

Quit darting around like that!

Sorry we're a bit late!

Lucent!

Now, what's the situation?

The rings turned Fullbound into monsters!

Rune's over there!

Understood!

You heard her, people!

It'll be our job to stop these rogues!

Well, then, let's just have Clover head on further in, shall we?

You sure got a lot more manly, didn't ya?

Since we're from the same homeland, I'll finish ya off, Zaccard!

We'll take on each of them in pairs!

Marona, you're pairing up with me!

How excitin' to be paired up with such a fine man!

Wow...

They've got skills, all right.

Clover is going to get Rune!

If King Vordan interferes, we'll deal with him.

We're going to rescue Rune and get out of here.

Yeah! Let's go!

Yeah!

Right!

I'll help with Future Prediction!

If you would, Biblion!

Looks like he's not gonna just let us run past!

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Move it, king!

Critical Weapon!

Critical Weapon

That's some power...

Cam!

He's strong...

I guess that's a dungeon master for you, right?!

Paralyze!

Slow! Venom! Collapse! Blindness!

Paralyze

Slow

Venom

Collapse

Blindness

Gravity!

Gravity

Yuke, your...

I used Lady Persephone's power to make it stronger.

The effects won't last that long!

Keep up the pressure!

Marina! Incoming! Jump to the right!

Got it!

I'll create an opening!

Meow, meow, meow, meow!

Flames, burn everything to ash!

Fire Concealment Jutsu!

There's my opening!

I'll finish it now.

Supreme god who rules the heavens,

the beginning of all life...

Immortal one who dies and returns to life endlessly...

That's not Grade 7 magic, is it?!

Has she really reached that level?!

In thy name, end this old world overrun by evil.

I will now begin the ritual to start a new world.

Nene! Silk! Marina! Gather up!

Got it!

Okay!

Right!

Come, sun, and grant us the blessings of fire.

Grade 7 Magic: Flare.

Aqua Veil!

I'll control it better!

Don't overdo it, Rain!

But I have to do what I can.

I'll back you up!

Undine!

Check! Scroll of Fire Resistance!

Scroll of Fire Resistance

Okay, Rain! You can release your control!

Okay...

I'm... done...

Rain!

Yuke!

Thank goodness you're safe.

Is everyone all right?

Yes. Are you?

I'm fine.

You okay, Rain?

My head hurts...

And my body won't move.

Refresh Mana.

Have her drink this Mana Potion and rest.

What about you?

I have to destroy the One Gold.

I'll go with you!

Me, too!

Rune, are you okay?

Look at that.

Is it trying to revive King Vordan?!

I don't really want to call on Lady Persephone's power again, but...

Reject.

Reject

Are you all right?

Yeah... I'm fine.

Yuke!

So that's the One Gold?

And it's all over once we break it, right?

Yes, it's the cause of all this.

Once it's destroyed, the magic that maintains this distorted Glad Shi-im will disperse,

and this dungeon will either disappear or lose its power.

Yeah, but there's something bothering me.

I'm still trying to figure out what it is...

but I don't think this is over.

In that case, we will let you handle the rest while we withdraw.

Master Moria, what brings you to that decision?

We cannot destroy that thing.

Only a superior Red Mage, like Yuke, can do that.

Really? Guess there are lots of things Red Mages can do, huh?

In any case, if he's the only one who can do it,

I suppose there's no need for us to stay and watch.

I get the reasoning, but...

He won't turn into a monster, will he?

He'll be fine.

That happened to Fullbound because they put the rings on.

Well, okay, then.

So, Rune, wanna come with us?

I can't.

You're going to destroy that thing, right?

If so, I'll help you,

but you and I should take care of it alone.

What do you mean?

I'm the Golden Priestess,

so I can touch it without getting hurt.

I think Yuke will be okay, too.

But anyone else would be drenched in the twilight and overtaken by the Sunset.

So they can't stay.

Yuke?

If the Golden Priestess says I'll be fine, it must be true.

And if anything does happen, it should happen to as few people as possible.

Yuke!

Mr. Feldio, I can't just pretend you didn't say that!

That's right! Your bad habit is coming out again!

Wait, wait! I just phrased that wrong!

I'm not trying to sacrifice myself or anything!

There you go again!

You always do this!

Rune, isn't there anything we can do?

I don't think so.

Yuke is special. You can tell, can't you?

I'll be fine, okay?!

You're right.

I guess that's that, then.

I'll head back and wait for you.

Bring Rune back, okay?

I will.

I'll do my job right.

There aren't many things that only a jack-of-all-trades Red Mage like me can do.

And if it's to prevent something as terrible as a culling,

any adventurer should count himself lucky to do it.

That's not funny.

Sorry...

That means I have no choice but to accept this, too!

This isn't something worth getting so upset over.

I've been through my fair share of tough battles, you know.

That's not the point.

There's no room left for me to hug you, so I'll head back and wait.

But... when you get back, I demand a day of Nene time!

Okay, sure.

Wait, "Nene time"?

They sure do love him. What a tight party.

Yet another quality of a hero.

All right. We'll head back.

Okay. Let me treat you to a drink when I get back.

Just know it will be an expensive one.

Guys...

I'll be back soon. Get the party ready and wait for me.

Okay. See you soon.

I'm holding you to that!

Don't push yourself too hard.

I believe in you!

Cam!

Be careful!

So you've finally made it this far, Mr. Yuke Feldio.

Loge...

When you struck down my father, I succeeded him as king.

And? Are you going to fight me next?

Most certainly not.

The king, the priestess, and the mage are together once again.

This time, it truly is over.

I see.

You're going to weave the spell again and end the world this time.

Reject.

You don't need to worry.

I'll keep it under control.

Will the Sunset really end if I destroy this?

That is the purpose of the king and the Golden Priestess.

This One Gold has existed since ancient times.

It has traveled across time and many worlds,

stolen from them and been stolen itself over and over,

putting its curse on everything until it found its way into King Vordan's hands.

That is how it destroyed our world.

Then you're saying this is what will bring the culling?

Indeed. This stone itself is the Sunset.

I will begin the ritual now.

Are we all ready?

If I am the hero, I have to do the job expected of a hero.

My wish is for a silent end,

detachment from this world,

and to return to the flow of all things through loss.

Now, Mr. Yuke, cast the great magic of fulfillment.

Look after Rune, youth whose name I do not know.

Right. I will.

A vague prayer...

turns a naïve wish...

into new hope.

Prismatic Missile!

What is this?! It hurts!

You're not going to finish him?

If he could die, he'd be dead by now.

What did you do to me?!

Theoretically, that spell remains active until the target dies.

That's it... I get it now!

Only those with consciousness will reach the center of the world

and hear its song.

The wish has now been realized.

I used the power of Persephone's curse to modify Prismatic Missile.

Yuke! Aren't we friends?

He's going to be stuck here suffering forever, isn't he?

I made sure of it.

And...

And now I'm going to leave him behind.

Yuke! Yuke!

You've been stuck in eternity, unable to die,

cursing everything in the world,

until you changed your form and crossed many worlds

on a long, long journey...

Walk alongside hope...

And this is where you ended up.

So that you might one day reach the center of the world and sing.

You don't need to suffer anymore.

I'm going to grant your wish now.

Rest in peace.

Wish.

Wish

For the Golden Priestess to be set free and for true happiness.

This is my wish,

my younger brother's wish,

and the wish of the dearly beloved, beautiful Frya.

I'm sorry.

This is goodbye, Simon.

Has it come true?

The world is disappearing.

Yuke, is this...

I guess Glad Shi-im is returning to its original form.

"Achromatic Darkness" sure turned out to be an apt name.

Through the protection of Wish and the secret arts, I was able to exist

even after crossing dimensions,

but this time, it truly is goodbye.

Loge, was Niberune able to come to our world without being affected by the Sunset

because you and her father wished for it so long ago?

That is correct.

Couldn't you have wished for your own happiness this time?

My happiness lies in the distant past.

I will be going to join Frya now.

Frya? My mom?

Niberune, you must live as your mother and father could not.

Live a long life, enjoy it to the fullest, and love without abandon.

Uncle Lo...

I wished as best I could for it.

Even if it was a thing that grew distorted,

my prayer—my wish—has been fulfilled.

Rune, let's head back.

Can I do that? I came from somewhere else, remember?

None of that matters.

I'm an adventurer,

so I have to complete the quest your father and uncle gave me.

Right!

Well, let's go. Everyone's worried.

Are they?

Of course!

Let's have Marina make pancakes for us when we get back.

I'm starving.

Return From the Twilight, And...

Next time, "Return From the Twilight, And..."
