We still haven't arrived in Magnolia?

It'll take three more days of walking.

Let's camp out in this area tonight.

Sleeping outside?!

It sounds like fun.

Right, Zera?

This isn't Tenroujima!

We're in the middle of a muggy forest!

Look!

There are weird bugs, too... and maybe poisonous snakes!

It'll be fine!

It's not fine!

We'll all...

...camp together!

All right! I'll gather stuff for a fire!

I'll hunt down our dinner.

I'll search for plants that seem edible.

I'll stand guard here.

Well then, I'll catch a fish!

Moonlit Lake

Zera!

Zera, what's wrong?!

What are you doing?

I fell.

The fish here are too quick to catch.

Don't scare me like that.

Sorry!

Maybe we should look for nuts and berries, too.

What is this?

It's nothing I've ever read about.

Let's ask Yuri and the others.

What the hell is this?

It's as if a poisonous wind just blew through here.

What do you think? Maybe it's better not to camp here,

but to press on 'til we're out of these woods.

No. It'll be dark soon.

It'd be more dangerous if we kept walking around.

Yeah.

It should be no problem as long as we sleep a ways away from it.

I see.

If that's what highly experienced treasure hunters judge as best,

then let's listen to them.

Right, Zera?

I guess we don't have a choice.

It's not experience so much as that we've seen a similar sight before.

You guys remember?

Yeah.

When we went to the ruins in Hell's Valley.

Hell's Valley?

Although that place didn't offer a straight path like we have here.

Yeah, now I'm remembering the details.

We went through the wringer there, and it was all Yuri's fault.

Yuri's fault?

What does that mean?

Forget about what happened back then!

In the end, we got the treasure,

so I don't see a problem.

Like I can forget that!

Thanks to you, we almost died several times over!

I'm tellin' you, it wasn't a failure!

A guy makes a couple little mistakes, and you blow it out of proportion!

Couple little mistakes, my ass!

You don't feel any remorse for what happened then?!

What kind of mistakes?

What kind?! What kind?! What kind?! What kind?! What kind?!

I've told you again and again.

You've gotta fix that reckless personality of yours.

It's a real pain in the ass.

Hey! You shouldn't talk to me like that!

And what about you?

You acted like a dumbass then, firing that barrage.

I'm telling you this for your own good!

Don't come crying to me if you get seriously hurt one of these days!

You don't have to worry about me!

What are you, my big brother?!

Where are you going?

I'm sleeping by myself tonight!

I don't wanna be around that big lug!

Good, 'cause I'm done with you, too!

Yuri!

Warrod!

Both of them left.

Precht, shouldn't we stop them?

Let's let them do as they please.

But at this rate...

Our party may break up.

We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

That's cold...

I'll go after Yuri.

Zera, you follow Warrod.

Got it.

Yuri!

Here, too...

What in the world is this?

Neither of them came back.

We went through Hell's Valley

in search of a plant called Wild Rainbow.

Wild Rainbow is a legendary plant with petals that shine all the colors of the rainbow.

It blooms in only one place in the world.

It's said to be worth several million jewel.

That is a large amount, isn't it?

If we'd obtained it, our reputation would've soared.

It blooms deep inside ancient ruins.

To reach it,

we had to cross through a poisonous gas-spewing wasteland.

This is a bleak sight for sore eyes.

And yet, it was apparently at the center of a civilization long ago.

It's said that the people worshiped the flowers and plants as sacred objects.

Although the destruction of nature and climate change

changed everything.

The passage of time is cruel.

I don't care about any of that.

Look, there it is!

We can finally breathe.

Don't let your guard down, Yuri.

Legend has it

that no one who's entered these ruins has ever come out.

Don't be afraid.

A treasure nobody's ever gotten before

is waiting for us!

Don't walk so fast.

We'd do better to move ahead with caution.

If we take your advice,

the treasure could sprout wings and fly away.

We're lost!

This is why I told you!

Don't panic.

I've been making a map.

Attaboy!

We can always count on you, Precht.

As glib as ever...

We're going in this direction.

Out of oil?

Don't worry.

We have spare fuel.

It's so dark, I can't find it.

Sheesh. If we could use magic,

we'd have light right away at a time like this.

Oh, thank you!

What is this?

An automatic lighting system.

It must switch on after reacting to the presence of intruders.

Then...

I have a bad feeling about this.

For now, let's get outta here!

Which way?!

It's obvious! Towards the light!

Hey, look!

How far does this go?!

How would I know?!

We finally stopped...

Now what?

All we can do is walk.

What do we do on the way back?

Well, I'm sure we'll come up with something.

You never think about what lies ahead, do you?

That's...

We've discovered the first treasure!

I don't think you should carelessly move it around.

Oh, come on. Moving it around is how you learn.

Huh?

What did I tell you?!

Whatever, just run!

A little more! Hang in there!

Hey...

Are you guys alive?

Miraculously, yes.

Look.

This is...

...a flower garden.

Luminescent moss...

That's why it's so bright in here.

Why in this abyss?

It may have been a holy place.

Look!

Wild Rainbow!

Something's been bothering me...

What is it, Precht?

Normally traps in a place like this

are to eliminate intruders.

But with this,

it's like the traps tried to lead us here.

Don't you think that's strange?

What are you trying to say?

The people who lived here

thought plants were sacred.

If... What if...

...this entire structure

is a trap, designed to send intruders here in order maintain the garden?

Yuri! Don't touch that flower!

What is that?!

Yuri!

Wild Rainbow is a flower that produces a magic beast!

So it lured us in here

to feed on us?!

Yuri!

Yuri, don't move!

You couldn't have rescued me a little more gently?!

That's asking for too much!

What are we gonna do about this monster?!

We'll wait for our chance, then snatch the flower!

If we put it in your magic pod, we can call it a win!

Easy for you to say...

Warrod!

I'll draw its attention!

Meanwhile, grab the flower!

Talk about reckless!

Usually it's the other way around!

Is this any time to quibble?!

Warrod!

Get the flower now!

Don't be stupid!

We'll save you, so hang on!

I may not be a good one, but I am a treasure hunter!

The prospect of treasure is what gets the blood racing!

Get it now, while I've got its attention!

You'd better not get eaten!

None f it means nothin' unless we all get home safe!

Uh-oh!

Precht!

Hold out a little longer!

What?!

It's gonna eat us!

Now!

What's happening?!

It's a plant, so cutting its roots is effective.

And simple.

I see...

If it's so simple, you should've figured it out right away!

Where's Wild Rainbow?

Relax.

I've got it right here.

Now what?!

Seems that fracas is causing the ruins to collapse!

Seriously?!

And so, even now,

we're working together.

I guess that's what comrades are about.

But this is the moral to the story, right?

You're a dependable guy, Precht!

I didn't mean for there to be a moral.

I was just telling the truth.

There you go being humble again.

You've already got the fire going?

This is perfect. Look.

We caught it in a lake deep in the forest.

Weren't you two fighting?

Now that you mention it, maybe we were.

We were so into catching the fish that we forgot about it.

More importantly,

let's cook our dinner here!

Precht, I'm counting on you!

This really is what comrades are about.

Right, Zera?

Yeah...

But it sounds like it's tough to be a treasure hunter.

Sure! But the rewards are big.

The Tenrou Jade is an S Class treasure.

If we get our hands on that,

we can sell it for enough money to live out the rest of our lives in luxury.

I'm on your side until we get it back,

but after that...

You wanted to remind me, right?

Exactly.

I understand.

Let's think about that after we get the Tenrou Jade back.

Miss, you grew up on an island, right?

You shouldn't be so trusting of people.

We're...

I can trust you.

I can tell by looking at your eyes.

Huh?

Come to think of it, where's Zera?

Maybe she's in a bad mood because she couldn't catch a fish herself.

I'll look around for her.

She's a strange girl.

I like her, though.

The Tenrou Jade...

Maybe we can give it back to Mavis.

I've already lost interest in it.

Hey!

Gimme a friggin' break! And you call yourselves treasure hunters?!

I'm not givin' up!

We're taking the Tenrou Jade!

I'm gonna outwit Mavis!

Good grief...

Zera, so this is where you went.

Mavis...

What's wrong?

Are you bothered that you couldn't catch a fish?

I'm a little tired.

It's been seven years.

Just the two of us on the island all that time...

It has been a long time since we've been with other people.

Only three of them, though.

I...

I would've died if you hadn't been there, Mavis.

Zera!

Zera!

Zera!

Zera!

That's why I decided...

...to save you next.

But see...

...after leaving the island...

...there were so many things I'd never seen before...

...that in the end, I was so scared that I couldn't do anything.

All you have to do is be near me.

That's what best friends are about, right?

That's not enough!

I can't forgive myself.

Teach me magic, Mavis!

Magic that can beat Blue Skull and eventually those treasure hunters, too!

Teach me amazing magic!

I'll protect you, Mavis.

I promise!

Okay. Thank you.

All right! And with that decided, let's start training right away!

I did it again!

You come in too, Mavis!

Let's bathe in a lake like we used to back on Tenroujima.

Now?

It feels great!

This brings back memories of Tenroujima!

It's not fair if you only do it, Zera!

Look, Mavis.

Fairies!

Where?

In our hearts.

Right.

There it is. Magnolia.

We made it.

Blue Skull, the guild that stole the Tenrou Jade is here, right?

Let's gather information first.

I want to see Kardia Cathedral.

I hear that's a huge church, right?

Kardia Cathedral is one of the three great churches of Fiore,

and a long time ago, the angel Saint Mikardia...

Hey! Over there...

What...?

What is that?!

Kardia Cathedral is...

...the blue skull of a dragon!

Mavis and the others reach Magnolia, where they are greeted by

a giant blue dragon skeleton draped over Kardia Cathedral,

the symbol of the city.

They wander around to get information

on the wizard guild, Blue Skull.

Right before their eyes

is the reality of a dying town that has lost its smile.

Next time: Blue Sky.

Blue Sky

Evil magic dominates the city.
