Love, J ust on my love

I want to protect y ou with these hands

Do y ou know real men?

They're weak to the women they protect

Is he sweeter than me?

Is he stronger than me?

The night of the f ull moon is cold

My soul is supposed to be in my hands

My memories get moved to the shadows

Love, J ust on my love

I want to protect y ou with these hands

You taught me about women, love, and passion

I'm Orphen, a black sorcerer f rom the Tower of Fangs.

Five y ears ago, the magician I looked up to, Azalie,

activated the Heavenly Being's Sword of Baltanders

and became the magical beast Bloody August.

After leaving the Tower of Fangs in search of Azalie,

l, with my apprentice Majic and Cleao,

began a quest to restore Azalie to her normal human state.

Let's go Majic! Cleao! To our next adventure! To the next town!

What are y ou?

So y ou are Orphen?

I see.

A worthy opponent, sorcerer.

I am Killing Doll.

I exist solely to ex ecute my designated target.

What?

OBEY MY COMMAND, DOLL

Sorcerous runes. . .

Orphen!

Orphen!

Master!

You!

You!

Cleao, no!

What are y ou thinking? He's not an opponent y ou can stand against!

Do not interf ere, Stephanie.

J ust now, didn't he say, "Stephanie?"

Is he a f riend of y ours?

Sorcerers are y our targets. This child is not a sorcerer.

I will exterminate those that interf ere.

Guide me,

O Starling of Death!

It blocked Master's magic, so easily .

Master!

Master!

Orphen. . .

The ruins!

It disappeared.

Orphen!

Orphen!

Master!

That is. . .

That is. . .

So that's the reason f or the earthquake.

This time be prepared, y ou f ake sorcerer!

I the battle hound of Mazmaturia, Volcan Polkano,

will pluck y ou to death with a f lower f ortune telling!

Forward, Rock Demon, Great Volcan's Best!

Wait, big Brother!

Don't try to stop me, Dortin. It's a bloodstained road ahead anyway .

That's not it! Below! Below! Look at its f eet!

What f eet?

They're dead.

They're dead.

Hey! Hey!

What an aroma!

Even after being left out so long, the coff ee powder isn't damp.

Hey, Cleao, how about y ou?

If y ou don't want to talk about it, y ou don't have to.

After all, y ou aren't my partner any more.

I'm the one who awoke the Killing Doll.

Orphen, while I was doing what y ou asked,

researching the sorcerous runes. . .

A long time ago when the Heavenly Beings and sorcerers were at war,

to annihilate the never weakening sorcerers,

the Heavenly Beings created that horrid Killing Doll.

The Heavenly Beings created that?

Annihilate sorcerers?

To have awakened such a horrible thing now. . .

How does it know y our name?

How does Killing Doll know y our name?

That is because. . .

No need to introduce y ourself just because y ou f ound it, right?

Of course, it would be a diff erent story

if he looked like the kind of guy who would make f riends.

Majic, coff ee please.

Have y ou ever been to Totokanta?

Of course, Orphen said it was his most f avorite town.

You know how even though Orphen has that f ace,

he's pretty got a pretty strong sense of justice?

So matter where he goes, he alway s stirs up trouble, at least once.

Trouble?

Trouble?

Like standing up to bad guy s and stuff, that kind of thing.

Oh, that kind of thing!

Among the bad guy s, sometimes there are those with prestige and power,

so the one that ends up getting kicked out of town is Orphen.

No one helps him then, y ou know.

The townspeople alway s pretend that they didn't see anything.

But Totokanta was diff erent.

There was one person there who helped Orphen.

One?

One?

He's the master of a bar.

Mister Bagup?

May be it was a name like that.

A while after that, my travels with Orphen came to a close

here in Alenhatan, because I wasn't a sorcerer any more.

Say, Cleao, which would y ou choose?

If y ou were to give Orphen some of the mountain grapes over there,

would y ou choose the red, ripe ones over there, or the still blue ones?

To Orphen?

Which one? No joking around, now.

I think the ripe ones!

Why?

Why?

Because the ripe ones are sweeter and taste better, right?

You are the one who wants to eat the ripe ones.

You see, Orphen likes the blue sour ones.

You've still got a way s to go to be Orphen's partner, don't y ou?

What in the world are y ou doing?

Master. . .

Where did Orphen go?

Well, when I thought he was looking at the map,

he say s he's going to the canals, and then all of the sudden he. . .

Canals? Why would he go somewhere like that alone?

That's just like Orphen.

He's the one being targeted.

What do y ou mean?

What do y ou mean?

Don't y ou understand?

Orphen went to settle things alone, so as to not involve us.

Wait, Cleao! I'll go, too! Cleao!

Orphen's at the coliseum, Killing Doll.

I'm sorry, Orphen.

No good? Orphen!

Master!

That I do carry, Sword of the Descending Demon!

If these stone statues should run amok. . .

This is a sign of our promise, Stephanie.

It's all right. It's all right.

Why if it isn't Steph!

Tim!

What kind of f ace is that?

Oh, that's right. Here, we just got new ones in.

Aren't they gorgeous? Want to take them with y ou?

This isn't like y ou.

The Steph I know goes running straight ahead

without looking to the side when she decides on something.

She's stubborn and careless but the townspeople love that about her.

Even me.

Well. . . that is. . .

Anyway, it doesn't suit y ou to worry over something, Steph.

I don't know what's worry ing y ou,

but in the end, y ou can't help but do what y ou think is right, right?

Tim. . .

Steph?

Farewell, Tim!

Hey, Steph! Stephanie!

Did Orphen really say that he was going to the canals?

Yeah. . .

You've still got a way s to go to be Orphen's partner, don't y ou?

"Still got a way s?"

It hurts, but it could be.

OUCH!

Who did that? Who threw a rock at My Greatness?

You two!

You two!

What are y ou doing in a place like that?

We're f illing our bellies bef ore we set off.

It's a waste of time to stay long in a town like this, y ou know.

Because he can't control the situation, we're going to run away .

Don't say unnecessary things!

Cleao!

Steph?

Steph?

Orphen's at the coliseum.

H urry!

Cleao!

Hey!

Hey!

You are so noisy! My Greatness is dining right now!

Want to make a deal with me?

Damn!

You are quite a challenge, just as was etched into Stephanie's soul.

But in the end, y ou are only a sorcerer.

I have only to ex ecute my designated target.

Master,

we're going to save y ou now!

Stupid, y ou'll be killed!

Meddlers!

One. . . two. . . three. . . f our. . .

Don't count y our money!

H urry up and have this guy attack!

Cheap, with this little money, y ou ain't gonna get much of an attack.

Hey . . .

It's coming back!

Majic!

Orphen!

Orphen!

You!

Sorry, Orphen.

When I awakened him, he read my soul and f ound out about y ou.

And then he came to threaten me.

He threatened to destroy this town if I didn't hand y ou over.

This town of Alenhatan.

The town?

The town?

That's why I . . .

I'm really sorry .

I can't ask y ou to f orgive me, can I?

Steph, y ou idiot. There's nothing to f orgive.

You just did what any one would do.

If I was in y our shoes, I'm sure I'd have done the same thing.

You were not wrong. You like it, don't y ou? This town?

Orphen!

We're going, Steph!

We're going, Steph!

Okay!

Ouch!

Master!

You! When did y ou?

Now, let's f inish this, Killing Doll.

Fine.

Me? I can't do that!

Don't y ou want to be his partner?

But I don't know what to do at all.

Orphen doesn't have a chance of winning in a head-on f ight.

So y ou're going to give him a chance to attack.

A chance? How?

Ask Orphen.

I mean y ou should watch Orphen closely .

If y ou do that, y ou will know what y ou should do.

Watch Orphen?

Watch closely .

Orphen means to move to the right. That means. . .

Sword of Light, whom I do release!

This can't be. . .

I exist. . . my designated. . .

I exist. . . my designated. . .

. . .designated. . .

I . . . I did it!

I did it!

Thanks!

A man?! Is that true, Master?

When he had that big magic accident, and was severely wounded,

he said, "Since I'm going to f ix my whole body . . ."

And he, Stephen, became a woman.

I can't believe it!

I was at surprised at f irst too.

But she's still the same Stephen inside,

and together, well, y ou saw this time it's just like bef ore.

Like I said, I'm the one who created the chance f or y ou to get Killing Doll.

How many times are y ou going to make me tell y ou?

You're so persistent!

Then I'll leave it at that, just f or y ou.

Oh, really?! You don't believe me at all!

Makes me mad! Mad! Mad!

I said it was me! Hey, Orphen!

I said it was me! Hey, Orphen!

I said it was me! Hey, Orphen!

Every one!

About that research, I'll let y ou know the results as I investigate.

I'll leave it to y ou.

J ust don't dig up any more weird things, all right?

Oh, well, when I do, please take care of it again.

Oh, that's right! Take this with y ou.

You like them, don't y ou? Mountain grapes?

And I wondered what it was!

Good!

Steph, y ou tricked me, didn't y ou?!

Take care of Orphen, okay, Miss Partner?

Yes, Miss Stephanie.

She was a nice person, wasn't she, Miss Stephanie?

Well, y eah.

But y ou know. . .

But what, Cleao?

I wonder if that guy knows that Steph was once a guy?

What? Leki got lost and went somewhere, y ou say?!

What? Like My Greatness cares?

More importantly, we have to save the lady who was assaulted

by a pack of wild dogs and get a brace of rewards!

Eewww! Why is the super evil sorcerer here?

And aren't those kids the ones I tricked money f rom last time?

Next Orphen:

"Leki's Small Adventure"

Sword of Light, whom I do release!

You aren't here, the one I really love

My f irst love has reached a dead end

Tonight in my dreams, a smiling y ou doesn't appear

Your last lines came out of y our lips too soon

You were troubled by

Your last lines as soon as y our lips said them

But then y ou kissed me

To only my lips

Please give y our warmth

To only my lips

Will y ou alway s remain

A gentle y ou

To only my lips

No matter how hard I try to f orget

To only my lips

Will y ou alway s remain

The last of y ou
