01x12 - Wand and Sword

[bunniefuu]

If you can do it,

There's no way I can't do it!

Iflamme Burdelyon!

Sion!

No way.
Even that didn't finish it off?

It took an advanced spell
at close range, and yet...

What a monster.

A wand can't win.

A sword also can't defeat it.

This is...

Remember, Will.

It's wand and sword.

Are you sure about this?

Stop asking the same question.

I've made my choice.

This is all to protect this world.

One day, wand and sword
will come together.

Wand and sword.

Sion!

I need your spell!

The answer is wand and sword!

Ignis Rooks!

Is that...

No way.

Wis!

What is that?

The sword is clad in flames?

Is it an enchantment?
No, it's different.

The spell was devoured?

Flunkee, you...

Everything I see is red.

I'm brimming with power.

As if urged on by a power
rushing through me.

I found myself muttering the spell.

Fully charged.

Ignis Wis!

Are you afraid of opening
your eyes again?

Do you hate being like
a stranger to yourself?

Even if you realize you have no talent

Does that become a pretext
to keep running away?

To respond to the screams
echoing within

Who is there to answer them?

At least, in the few moments
of your life

I want you to be an honest actor

What if today is that day?

Are you afraid of opening
your eyes again?

Do you hate being like
a stranger to yourself?

But you've realized, haven't you?
Your body can't stop moving

"If I think of you, who I can't bear to lose,
my fears seem trivial."

Even if I expose my life and sing

In time, you will understand

Will it end here?

You wouldn't want that, would you?

[Episode 12: Wand and Sword]

My strength is leaving me.

My sword has gone back to normal?

What was that, really?

He defeated the Grand Duke.

Will!

Hordes of Sentinels and Guards?!

Did they rush over here after hearing
the Grand Duke's death cry?

Oh no...

We no longer have
any strength left to fight.

Damn it.

Hurry, Workner!

Stay away!

It's no good.
We won't make it in time.

Julius!

Pass judgment.

Sage-king, vanquisher of evil.

Loi Eluza.

Advanced annihilation spell?
Who could've...

That wand... Could it be...

You are...

Aaron Masterias Oldking.

The king of the Magia Vander,
the strongest wand.

What is he doing here?

Deep dungeon equipment?

Was they on their way back
from an expedition?

I've bestowed the blessing of light

to those who've stood against
the darkness of the dungeon.

Well fought, children of magic.

We're saved!

All the mages, even the elf, bowed
reverently as they trembled in joy.

As everyone's attention was directed
towards the Lord of Light.

But my eyes...

...were drawn to him.

I'm surprised.

The sword is still alive.

What's your name?

Will Serfort.

And you are?

I'm Finn.

Just Finn.

Good thing we went to pick up
the goods as fast as possible.

We wouldn't have been able to
if they pursued us.

I'd much prefer not to run into them.

But still, we completed
the mission successfully.

Now, we can celebrate with
a party from Hell.

The abnormal turn of events brought
the All-Student Praxis to a close.

There were eleven deaths,
all of them were the Academy professors.

Thanks to the efforts of those who managed
to survive, no students were k*lled.

Based on eyewitness reports, warrants
were put out for the perpetrators,

but no clues have yet to be found.

Unable to shake off the aftertaste,

the survivors rest for a moment.

Who were those creepy guys anyway?

I don't know either.

One thing is for sure, they were crazy
enough to m*rder the professors.

I still can't believe that Professor Bruno
and other professors are really dead.

Colette.

If not for the great mage Masterias Noah,
I wonder what would happen to us now.

But we're alive.

None of us died in the face of
that terrifying opponent,

nor did I become a martyr
due to my knight's duty.

I had created this party to be
recognized by the Tower,

but unexpectedly
I have a better eye for people.

It was a good party.

As the youngest among the knights,
I thank you all.

Are you hungry, Lihanna?

Is it good?

Yes.

I want more.

Sure.

I want more.

Sure.

I want more.

You still want to eat?

I want more.

Wait, what?

I want more.

Just how much do you eat?

There's nothing left for
Will and the others.

Were you such a glutton?

You're wrong!

The close combat magic
I use consumes

a lot of physical strength
as well as magical power,

that's why I have a poorer fuel
consumption than an average mage.

Please don't mistake me for a glutton.

I'm not lying, I'm telling the truth.

It's the truth.

That last cute remark
doesn't convince me at all.

You're just a hungry knight.

No! You're wrong.

To think Miss Perfect is like this...

I was surprised too when I first learned
that she had a strong appetite.

I'm an avid eater myself,
but I think Lihanna's more than me.

Good grief!
This is already the last one.

Let us return to the subject.

Will, during that battle,

without your judgment and courage,
we would have been annihilated.

That is not true.

Everyone worked together and
that's how we got through it.

It's not just me.

That's it! That flunkee nearly
got us all k*lled at one point.

He said he was scared,
and he couldn't stop shaking.

Proposing a plan that puts such
a burden on me in the first place

is beyond brazen and reckless.

Enough!

Eat this and shut up!

Stop it, not now!
I'll die!

More importantly, Flunkee...

What was that power that ate my spell?

Yeah, that was amazing.

It was so intense, so vibrant,
it made me hold my breath.

It looked like it had contained the spell.

But it wasn't an enchantment.

I'm not even sure if we can call it magic.

Right! If you had such power,
you should have told us first!

Because of that,
you had put us all in danger.

Stop it! Stop it, you familiar!
Don't scratch me!

Answer it, Flunkee.

I don't know about that myself.

My head was blank when that happened.

And then...

Maybe Professor Workner
and others know.

We should try to ask them.

I feel that phenomenon
was something special.

Something special?

By the way, I remember there was
a small boy on that expedition team.

Do you know who he is?

A small boy?

That supporter?

He may be someone from the Finn tribe.

Finn tribe?

I have read about them in the literature
that Owenzaus possesses.

Although it's a tribe that
cannot use magic,

those little people have accumulated
knowledge about dungeons for generations.

Since the time of the Mage Queen,
they made a contract with the Tower

to help with dungeon exploration
as guides.

They said that it's impossible to go deeper
into the dungeon without their help.

Dungeon guide.

The Finn tribe.

Including that power when
I defeated the Grand Duke,

I wonder what that feeling was.

Hey, Caldron.

I'm back.

It's been a while, Finn.

Another long expedition, I see.

How far did you get?

The 49th floor.

That Aaron really works people
to the bone.

First things first,

here's a souvenir for you.

Is this the reported "Mage Slayer"?

Yeah.

We ran into some shady people on
the 40th floor and engaged in battle.

About twenty high mages of
the expedition team were k*lled.

They weren't opponents we could
hold back against, so we k*lled them.

But I'm willing to bet.

This Mage Slayer didn't just appear
naturally in the dungeon.

They were probably doing tests
down there.

Are you saying that they created this weapon
by combining a variety of materials,

including those on the deeper floors?

Aaron requested me to go back
for another survey.

I'll leave the analysis of that to you.

My apologies for imposing this on you.

It's fine.

It seems some nasty characters
are plotting behind the scenes.

So you all need to be careful too.

Now, on to the main topic.

Why didn't you tell me about
that boy, Caldron?

The wands are under yours,

while the swords are supposed to
be under my jurisdiction.

Will is a student of my academy.

He's obsessed with wands
more than anything.

He intends to climb the Tower
and reach the Magia Vander.

I never heard of a sword aspiring
to become a wand.

Yes, it's unprecedented.

But I believe there'll be a new and
big impact that will be born out of this.

Damn you, witch.

All right, I don't dislike
playing such games.

Fine.

I'll leave him with you all for now.

But from now on,
I'll be meddling in his affairs as well.

Yes, do as you please.

All for the sake of overcoming the sky.

I can't believe it.

Everyone is injured pretty badly,
but only you're able to move.

I just couldn't stand still.

There are a lot of things
I don't understand,

but I have to move forward.

Because there's a place I want to reach.

What kind of body does he have?

Pretty sure he's not a mage,
but rather a dwarf, isn't he?

Please don't lump an elf's friend
with barbarians like the Dwarves.

He is a warrior worthy of respect.

But then again, maybe that simplicity
and dedication are his very strengths.

Flunkee!

Fight me!

What are you talking about, Sion?

Look at your body,
it'll be impossible for now.

If he can move, then I can too.

Sion, you shouldn't be
so hard on yourself.

Besides, we can't just start fighting.

You said it yourself.

You said that we'll have a proper fight
after the Grand Magic Festival.

Keep your word.

Look at me!

As if someone who can't defeat me
could ever advance to the Tower!

Got it.

All right then, Sion.

Let's continue our fight!

Hey, Will! Sion!

Prepare yourself!

Yeah!

It's been two months since
the All-Student Praxis accident.

I'm sure that many of you
may still feel uneasy.

Nonetheless, we can't allow
your learning to stall.

I've done everything I could do
since then.

The school year's almost over.

And, as sixth-year students,
this will be your final exam.

I'll be able to meet her soon.

Day one of the graduation exams...

...begins!

To meet Elfie.

Peering through the telescope

I gaze at you

The everyday life I see there
is completely upside down

I can't keep my feet on the ground

My heart is in the clouds

Feelings with no destination
will only lead to pain

Ah, it's so cruel

The spell "what if" has no effect

But everything would be fine
if it were with me

I can't help but think of that

I used to be able to say,
"I love you. Do you love me? I love you!"

It was like half-eaten frozen,
crunchy memories

[We're stuck in Love]

Not enough, not enough, not enough

There's not enough of you

[We're stuck in Love]

I want to touch you, I want to touch you
It's so cold

Before love freezes over

Warm it up, please
