01x04 - And So, She Remembered That World

[bunniefuu]

Unexpected disturbance
detected in the demon hero.

Initiating removal with Rasterizer.

Why, you!

Commencing Zero Code.

Erasing hero Vanessa's Code
from the world.

Gloria, sequentia.

Bless my flesh, blood, and soul!

Don't get carried away, trash!

Rinne.

Did you really fight someone like that?

No.

How scary.

She's always been strong,

but Vanessa from that world...

wasn't this scary.

Let me finish off
the weaklings before me first.

Kai, run!

Rinne!

Shadow Prison.

Run away, Kai!

While I'm holding her down!

This is the barrier of the Spirit Race.

You want to hold me down?

Do you think
such a fragile barrier can stop me?

Delusional fool.

Vanessa!

No! Run.

Humans are such an eyesore.

Kai?

Kai!

Kai.

That guy is dead.

What will you do?

Will you avenge him?

Or will you run away
with your tail between your legs?

Don't tell me
you've lost your will to fight...

How is that possible?

Her wounds are slowly healing.

Unforgivable.

I'll never...

I'll never forgive you!

Vanessa!

What is this chaotic form
with the characteristics of five races?

Shut up.

Is this your true nature?

Shut up!

Vanessa!

This is...

This is so absurd.

Hey, sparkling crossbreed.

You knew, didn't you?

If you had fought
in that form from the start,

that human wouldn't have died by my hand.

Are you afraid that the human
will see this form of yours?

I understand how you feel.

After all, humans are the weakest
and most cowardly race.

They fear demons, hate phantom beasts,
loathe spirits, and envy wild gods.

Your brilliance is beautiful,

but that's what makes you
so different from humans.

You're scared, aren't you?

That he'll call you a monster?

Are those tears coming
from anger towards me?

That's not right, is it?

You're the one who k*lled that human.

That human died because you hesitated!

That's right.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

No amount of regret can bring Kai back.

Vanessa.

Die with me.

Solittis Clar.

Elmei l Nazyu Phenoria.

A forbidden curse?

These water droplets are your life.

No matter what you do,
you can't defend against it.

Because these water droplets
will drip until you die.

I will also die with you.

You ominous being!

This battle is over.

What?

Why did this happen?

Even if it's a forbidden curse,
it's still a spell cast with mana.

That's why you lost.

This is my territory.

It's natural to take precautions
to prevent other races from invading.

Could it be...

I've set up a wide-range curse.

It's a curse formation
that blocks the mana

of the Spirit Race, Phantom Beast Race,
and Wild God Race.

You, who have the traits
of multiple races,

should've endured
the curse of three races.

I'm actually surprised.

I didn't expect you
to use magic for that long.

No way.

You poor creature.

You're merely a half-baked creature
that fails to fit into any race.

I really don't understand
why someone like you was born.

I'm sorry, Kai.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I tried my best.

Even your words are so unpleasant.

Why are you apologizing to me, Rinne?

Kai!

I would have died if you didn't fight.

After all, I just passed out.

That's not a lie, is it?

It feels warm.

Human, what did you do?

No one could have survived
that burst spell at such close range.

This guy saved my life again.

Do you still intend to stand before me
and challenge me?

That's right.

Don't be so full of yourself, human!

You just escaped from
my magic twice by sheer luck.

You're just a blessed soul.

While that half-baked creature
was fighting me,

didn't you just barely
regain consciousness?

That's why
I have to defeat you at all costs.

After all, Rinne risked her life
to fight for me just now.

That's why I'll do whatever it takes
to reciprocate her efforts.

Do you have something up your sleeve?

Or do you want to show me something too?

I know all about you humans.

You're all the same.

All that talk about showing me

the strength of humanity,

the potential of humanity,

or the future of humanity,

but it's all just a lie.

The Spirit Sovereign Rikugen Kyoko.

The Lord of Heaven Alfreya.

The Fang Emperor Rath=IE.

They are an eyesore,

but they are the absolute powerhouses
who lead their race.

I admit that they deserve
to be called heroes.

But there are no heroes among you humans.

Or... do you think you're the human hero?

I've never wanted
to be a hero of humanity.

But didn't you just ask me to show you?

Then let me do just that.

Show me what?

Humanity's strength?

Potential? Or future?

Our essence.

In this world, humanity has no hero.

Even so,

I'll do my best to defeat you.

At this very moment,

I'll fight you for all humanity!

I don't think you can change anything.

But struggle all you want...

before I obliterate everything!

Demon-conquering Star.

Answer me, Code Holder!

To think that you could
destroy my spell to this extent.

But this is not the end.

Flowers of the Underworld, bloom fully!

Scatter!

Now!

So that's how it's going to be.

Humans have no mana.

Indeed, it's hard for me
to locate them in the darkness.

But...

Over there!

What?

For the past ten years,

I've been training hard for this moment.

Kai!

It's over, Vanessa.

I lost.

I return Urza to you.

I...

Well, Kai.

There's something strange about her.

Yes.

Sid.

Sid.

That's right.

Prophet Sid.

What have I done? This is so pathetic.

World Rebirth.

The world will get overwritten.

That's right. I remember now.

Accursed Sid.

Is this what he was talking about?

Vanessa!

What's going on?

Do you know something?

The world would be recreated.

Sid called this phenomenon
the World Rebirth.

Sid... knew about this?

Someone deliberately triggered
this World Rebirth to alter the world.

Find that person.

It's one of the other three heroes
besides Sid and me.

Alter the world?

That's...

He foresaw the abnormality
that would happen in this world.

That's why Sid entrusted that sword to me.

To prepare for an imminent crisis,

I hid that sword.

Do you mean this sword?

Yes.

It's the only key that can fix
the alterations of this world.

Why?

Weren't you enemies with Prophet Sid?

There are records that you fought him
during the Great w*r.

That's right.

I did fight him.

But...

there's a past you don't know about.

It's hidden in your world,

the Forbidden Code.

The Forbidden Code?

Zero Code...

is such a troublesome technique.

Well done, human.

Whether it's the trick of using darkness,

the courage to let go
of your absolute weapon,

or the martial art you've perfected...

Is this... the essence of humanity?

I'm so frustrated!

I lost this time. An utter defeat.

I don't even have the energy for excuses.

Be prepared.

If there's a next time,

I'll face you in a grand battle
as a succubus.

I'll definitely make you cry
with my overwhelming love.

Next time...

let's have more fun.

Vanessa.

Kai.

It's finally over.

Yes.

I won.

I beat the demon hero.

Yes.

You won, Kai.

From the Urza Federation to all nations,

Jeanne E. Anise, the Knight of Light,
led our Resistance army

and successfully recaptured
the royal capital Urzakk

and defeated the demon hero.

-Did you hear that?
-Great!

Kai, are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

But... there are more things
we need to investigate.

I always thought that we were the ones
affected by the abnormality.

But according to Vanessa,

it's the opposite.

You and I were actually the ones
who escaped the abnormality.

I hope we can go back to normal soon.

This world is kind of scary.

Yes.

Kai, Rinne.

Although this place has become desolate,

we can walk on the surface like this
thanks to both of you.

Thank you.

I thank you on behalf of
the Humanity Resistance Army.

But...

why do you look unhappy
after doing something meritorious?

No, I'm relieved.

To be honest,

I'm not sure I can win
if I have to fight Vanessa again.

Kai, Rinne.

Thanks to you, we got this land back.

Humanity's territory
has increased drastically.

I'll recreate the townscape
from 30 years ago.

No.

I'll make it more beautiful
than it was back then.

Okay.

However, it doesn't have to be me.

What?

I'll leave the rebuilding of the capital
to the executives.

Besides, rather than
a youngster like me taking charge,

I'm sure people who know
the capital well from 30 years ago

will be more motivated.

So it's okay if I don't do it.

Then...

What do you want to do, Jannya?

It's Jeanne.

Now that the demons are gone,
are you going to retire, Jannya?

No.

I want to leave Urza...

and set sail to a different place.

The seized human federations
can be divided into three...

The Io Federation in the east,

the Yurun Federation in the south,

and the Schultz Federation in the west.

They are ruled by the Wild God Race,

Spirit Race, and Phantom Beast Race,
respectively.

At the same time,

there are Resistance armies
fighting against them.

I plan to join forces
with the army in other regions

and carry out a large-scale operation.

We've received invitations to join forces
from other regions' Resistance groups.

The news of defeating the demon hero

sparked a widespread movement
across the world.

That's why I want you to come with me.

It might be possible to replicate
what happened in your world.

I will be in charge of this plan.

I'll deploy all my forces
so that you can use your full strength.

For that, I will become
the supreme commander.

So please fight with me.

Let's end the Five Races Great w*r.

Of course, I'll give you
the best treatment possible.

For example...

No.

It's not that I don't want to.

I was just a little surprised.

You really are amazing, Jeanne.

What?

The Jeanne I knew was ambitious
but also childish in many ways.

What? How am I childish?

For example, when I was training,

she would use the communicator
to contact me about personal matters.

What?

She would worry about
what to get for her friends

and feel uneasy about the future.

Me?

Sure enough, I still can't believe
that such a world exists.

Let's talk about this again sometime.

Jeanne.

When I hear that you're going
on a world expedition,

it's undoubtedly a shot in the arm for me.

Actually, I should be the one asking you

to help us defeat the other three heroes.

Does that mean...

I'll help you.

Let's end the Great w*r together.

All right.

I'll help too
because I want to be with Kai.

Okay.

Thank you, Rinne.

Everyone, did you get enough rest?

Yes, I think we slept too much.

Actually, it still feels like a dream.

This is an undeniable reality.

We've retaken the royal capital!

Things will get busy from now on.

Let's start the strategy meeting.

-Everyone, get ready.
-Rinne.

Don't be late!

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

I'll end the Great w*r.

If Sid doesn't exist in this world,

then I'll take on this responsibility.

And so,

I'll find the culprit
behind the World Rebirth

and reclaim the right world.

Let's go.

Y-Yeah!

Watch carefully, Sid.
