Which is why...

In this case, we need to revert the digits of the spirits to "87."

Oh, I see!

I see.

You don't need to be surprised.

The Seijuu Universe is one of my research subjects, after all.

He has a career as a researcher, after all!

You took too long! You're late!

Hey, you!

That was dirty! Slipping out like that!

If I hadn't, it looked like we'd continue till morning.

So accompany me till morning!

It shows you're a man!

What are they talking about?

Cards.

Cards?

Gambling!?

Gambling is all about probability.

It's impossible for you to beat my calculations by going all out.

I can't help but say you're being reckless.

To sum it up, there's no chance you can win.

You bastard... Saying just what you want!

Let's settle this!

Let's play right now!

Cut it out!

You're already late, so stop talking about worthless things!

Shut up!

Don't get in my way!

Come to think of it...

Where's Ange?

She's even later than I am, isn't she!?

If you're looking for Ange, she already left for her mission.

She went to the Shinchou Universe!

She discovered a new rise in Sacrea!

There's gonna be more Guardians?

Don't tell me it's gonna be a robotic guy like this one now, huh?

The Bond that Protects the Universe

Someone assist her!

Yes sir!

We have enough space for everyone in the emergency vehicles!

Everyone, please act in a calm manner!

We're done evacuating the villagers.

There are no reports of injured victims.

Good job.

Now, I'm counting on you for another job.

First, we must guide the villagers until they can stay the night.

And afterwards, we distribute their food rations and blankets.

Yes sir!

Hello!

You're General Victor from the Royal Expeditionary Army, right?

Yes, that's right. And you are?

You don't look like one of the villagers.

I came here with a request for you.

I've understood the situation.

I accept your request.

You mean going to the Seijuu Universe as its Guardian?

I'm a soldier in service to the Queen.

It's only natural for me to obey the orders of a royal envoy like you.

Um... I'm glad, but...

The situation's a bit different.

Different?

How so?

I want you to decide with your own feelings, not because you're a soldier or because of orders.

Please think about not being able to see your family anymore...

and the fact you'll live in a different time-flow from ordinary people.

But isn't the Seijuu Universe in a terrible crisis?

Is it okay for you to talk about such trivial things?

That's true...

But I want you to consider your own feelings.

Because I want a Guardian to protect the universe with his whole heart!

I got it.

If that's the case, then won't you give me some time?

Of course!

Then while you're doing that, please let me help with the evacuation of the villagers!

Wait! You don't need to do that!

In exchange, I'll be needing food and a place to stay the night!

Ange, huh?

She sure is a strange girl.

There is a disturbance of Sacrea in the vicinity of the Sabute Galaxy.

If we leave it this way, there's a probability that the whole galaxy will experience a huge disaster.

How can you tell?

I've analyzed the data and simulated it with a program I made.

It's so difficult, I can't understand it too well!

Then, how do we avoid the disaster?

We must immediately rectify the balance of Sacrea.

A Guardian himself must influence the planet.

That's right. It might be just as you've said.

I'll go to the Sabute Galaxy.

I'll help too!

That won't do, Heuye.

According to my calculations, my power alone should be enough.

What's with that dedication?

So hardworking!

Steel Sacrea, which creates existence...

Rise from within me...

And go to a profound universe!

My work is done.

It should be all right now.

A call from the Royal Research Institute?

Yes.

Ernst-sama, it's terrible!

The warping of Sacrea...!

Is getting worse than before!

What did you say?

I-It should have been perfect...

My calculations... and my Sacrea.

W-Why!?

At this rate, there'll be a galaxy-wide disaster!

Awaiting your orders, Ernst-sama!

You were looking after the refugees even at this hour?

Everyone must be troubled staying at a place they're not used to.

I admire you for your eagerness, but you seem to be overdoing it.

Summoning me to the Holy Land should've been enough to make me a Guardian.

I just want to do the best of what I can.

It's what the Queen of Shinchou taught me.

Doing the best of what I can do everyday.

I lost a lot of subordinates once.

It was on a planet with violent crustal movements.

And as we were about to leave the planet with the last shuttle...

There was suddenly a huge eruption.

All my subordinates were swallowed by the earth and only I survived.

And the reason I'm here doing what I am now...

Is because I wish to do the work my late young subordinates have left behind.

I guess that's "doing the best of what I can."

Ange...

It's the same as how you feel.

Victor-san...

I've already decided with all my heart.

I swear to offer myself for the Seijuu Universe and the Queen.

With you, that is.

We're counting on you!

I see... You've made up your mind to be a Guardian...

I was safely able to finish evacuating people in the Red Land Planet, after all.

It may be selfish of me, but with this, my work in the Expeditionary Force...

Yes...

You've done well up to now.

You must use your power to contribute to the development of the Seijuu Universe from now on.

I'll support you as another Guardian of Earth.

Thank you very much, Julious-sama, Luva-sama.

Excuse me.

Julious-sama, we just received an emergency report.

Julious?

A problem has occurred in the Seijuu Universe.

Ernst has gone missing.

Ernst!?

I'm not familiar with the details,

but it will be best for you to return to the Seijuu Universe as soon as possible.

Yes!

We've returned!

Ange, Victor!

So you've come!

I heard the news.

Tell me the details of Ernst's disappearance.

Okay...

It may be because he miscalculated...

Or the regulation of Sacrea didn't go so well...

We can't come up with other reasons for his disappearance besides those two...

We have to find out where he is!

His whereabouts are already clear.

What do you mean by that?

It appears the radiance of a Guardian's Sacrea radiates no matter where he may be in the universe.

We'll come to pick him up right away!

Hey, hey... Do you need to go?

It's best to let him cool his head for a bit.

But it's not good to run away in the middle of one's duty!

Leonard-sama... Heuye-sama...

Let's leave this to Ernst.

He's a Guardian.

He should know how to take responsibility for his actions, right?

You guys aren't worried about Ernst-sama?

Lady---

I'm worried about him in my own way.

I'll come with you.

She's such a meddlesome woman!

Ange, they also had a point.

I know.

I know, but...!

I...

That Ernst is all show.

Well, then... I'll return to my duties.

Even if we assemble all nine Guardians...

they surely can't overcome the crisis of the Seijuu Universe like this.

Not at this rate...

Ernst-sama!

Ange! General Victor!

I see... You also became a Guardian...

I'm sure a former General from the Royal Expeditionary Force like you can perform your duties well.

It was impossible for me, though...

Ernst-sama!

I first realized the weight of bearing the responsibility as a Guardian when I failed.

The fact that my power can influence the fate of the universe...

It was a dreadful fear for me.

I lost sight of myself!

I was really frightened.

It's the first time I experienced this feeling.

And before I realized it...

I ran away.

What is it? Calling us here in the middle of work...

It's about Ernst, isn't it?

No!

It's about you guys.

It's a very critical time that Guardians have assembled in this Universe without a Queen...

I want you to think about that.

We are... of course...

I want you to think about what it's like to be friends.

Don't beat around the bush!

What do you want to say?

Hey... We also got persuaded by Ange, but...

We came to the Holy Land of our own will, right?

We all worried in the same way...

And made up our minds...

And became Guardians!

What about it?

We might be irreplaceable beings with one goal.

To fail and run away...

I'm the worst ever Guardian.

I'm a failure as a Guardian.

That's not true!

I thank you for your words of consolation, but...

You're wrong. I'm not trying to console you.

I fully understand how you feel.

Because I was the same...

I've been discouraged by the weight of my mission as the Etoile many times.

There was also a time I ran away from the Holy Land, worried and in pain.

But the people who were always around me supported me even then.

The Queen, the Guardians and Rosalia-sama...

And you, back when you were a researcher.

You also supported me.

Ange...

That's why I'll support you now!

What are you being so serious for?

Running away is Ernst's best skill!

Be it from cards and his duty!

Heuye, where are you going?

I've begun to understand it after pondering on it again.

The most important thing for me is to revive this universe!

So I'll work to make it happen!

I see...

He is indeed quite transparent.

Do as you please!

You're all pushovers anyway!

Francis!

Hey! What's wrong? Pull yourself together!

Wha... What happened to you?

Hey, why did you come to this city?

Who knows? I don't understand why myself.

It might be because it looks a lot like my hometown.

Your hometown?

I couldn't stand but meet my family and friends again...

It's truly pathetic of me.

Ernst, do you think you have to be perfect?

You can't stand imperfection.

If you aren't perfect, you won't forgive yourself.

That's why you lost sight of yourself.

Victor...

All people possess weaknesses.

It's the same for us Guardians.

Don't try to be perfect by yourself. You don't have to.

The Queen and the Guardians... Also, the Etoile and Rachel...

When all of them gather their feelings, their powers can save the Seijuu Universe.

Hey!

Heuye-sama?

Hey, can you fix the disorder in Sabute Galaxy with the Wind Sacrea?

Heuye-sama!

You may not be able to meet your family and friends from your hometown anymore.

But you can surely make new friends.

Like Heuye and me.

I look forward to working with you from now on, Ernst.

I'm sure you can overcome your worries and pains.

It'll be all right!

It'll be all right.

Heuye, just like you said, the Wind Sacrea will be effective in rectifying the disorder in Sabute Galaxy.

Of course, other Sacrea will be required.

All right! Help me out too, Ange!

Ah, wait! Ernst-sama and Victor-san will be coming too!

"It'll be all right," huh?

She really seems to be carefree.

Yes... But, strangely, I believe what she says.

Oh? It's rare for you to believe something without basis.

Ange has done a number of incalculable miracles.

Since she says it'll be all right, I'm sure it will be.

I can change.

I can be stronger as a Guardian!

Ernst-sama! Victor-san! Hurry!

She really is a strange girl.

Francis-sama... Leonard-sama!

There are a lot of things I'd like to learn from you.

I told you I won't let you get away, right?

I shall accompany you two to your heart's content.

However, we must first rectify the disorder of Sacrea in the Sabute Galaxy.

I implore you all to lend your power.

When I first met you, my heart started to beat strangely fast.

Ange, how should I reply to you?

And you'll become a legend.
