02x03 - The City That Rejects Sorcerers

[bunniefuu]

Instructor Quo.

Anastasia, how would you know it's me?

I could tell from your footsteps.

Instructor, who have given me blessings
is as close as my parents.

Instructor Quo's here, Pope Ramonirok.

I have something to report.

The missing sorcerer of The Tower of Fangs,

Childman Powderfield seems to be dead.

Now it's the perfect timing
to eliminate all sorcerers.

Not necessary.

Sorcerers will be wiped out eventually.

That's it?

There's a betrayer in the church.

Leave it.

But,

Just leave it.

We are holy.

Birth is beautiful.

Fate is just.

Death is sacred.

SORCEROUS STABBER ORPHEN: BATTLE OF KIMLUCK

♪Within the darkness and whimperings,
the soul is sealed from delivering♪

♪It has turned into dust and drifted away♪

♪Thoughts thrive from my voracious skin♪

♪And are frolicking dreamily♪

♪Why is the sky torn apart?
Why have I lost my direction?♪

♪Why is the remaining blaze
within my embrace?♪

♪I rekindle my ardour and hold the bow of God♪

♪I respond to cries and guide their way♪

♪Even if I have become a betrayer,
I will wave away the anxieties♪

♪And sleep within the burning passion♪

♪Even if I have become a betrayer,
I will wave away the anxieties♪

THE CITY OF ANTI-SORCERERS

What I've seen there...

I want to obliterate all the races
who are the root of sorcery,

that has caused distortion to the world.

Is like a show or...

I'm coming in, Master.

Master, when are we going to Kimluck?

We took three days to reach here from the ruins.

Besides, we have to spend some days
to reach Kimluck.

And we need to prepare food and water.

We'll set off when everything is ready.

Before that, please guide me on the sorcery.

Do you really mean to step me, Master?

I'm serious.

You should mind your strength though.

If I was stepped by your boots
with iron plates inside,

I'll surely be severely injured.

I asked you to take me to combat training.

But what if I got trampled to death?

What then?

I'll bury dog bones with your dead body.

And I won't be interrogated by the authority.

That can't be regarded as a grave though.

Battle training exists
for the sake of battle.

If one would simply die in the training,

he'll surely bite the dust
if he makes any mistakes in actual combat.

At least I can guarantee that
even if I teach you any tricks,

it's useless since you don't have the spirit.

There're lots of imbeciles.

All in all, it's because
they do irretrievable things.

Keep moving rashly and burn their bridges.
That's indeed an imbecile.

Battle is a bloodbath
where everyone risks their life.

Anything will be irreversible and forlorn
once you die.

Go back if you're still not aware of
how horrendous the death is.

Master...

One more thing. Stop being naive.

That's it for today's training.

True. As a sorcerer, it's a stupid idea
to sneak into the headquarter of Kimluck Church.

That's rare.

Why do you say such intense words to Majic?

Is that so?

It's better than making irretrievable trouble.

Besides, when I was 14 years old,

when Teacher said these to me,

I wasn't only been thrown off.

Having said that,
have you been eavesdropping just now?

Yes, I was listening.

By the way, I come to call you.

The old man wants to speak with you.

Mädchen, are you trying to use the sorcerer
to k*ll that fellow?

Quo Vadis Pater.

You're bringing him here for this reason, right?

Teacher, that's one of my plans.

You should obey Quo.

Since you've accepted his guidance.

Quo stays in Holy City.

While me, Oleyl Salidon stays here.

In this darn place. This is the truth.

You've fostered Salua. That's also a truth.

Salua said Quo is very dangerous.

Do you think that sorcerer
can assassinate Quo successfully?

It's not enough to just depend on Krylancelo.

Quo had defeated Childman ten years ago.

Teacher, I'll be with you.

As for now, beside Quo,

there're Name Only and Carlotta Mawson.

They are the invincibles amongst
all Death Instructors.

Even if I've collaborated with Salua
in Holy City,

truth be told,
I have no confidence to win over them.

Behind them, there're 2000 clerics of Kimluck

and 170,000 city believers. That's impregnable.

Stop mocking me.

Despite this, we still decide to fight.

Kimluck Church has no intention
to save its believers.

Those leaders who live inside the city

have abused contributions by the believers.

In this city, the rich dwell inside
while the poor outside the wall.

I must inform this situation to the pope
to change the current system.

However, only Quo can meet the pope now.

That's why you use the church's power
of eliminating sorcerers

to fight against Quo?

Is he Childman's disciple?

Who is it?

Who can I be? It's you calling for me.

That's right. Come in. The door is unlocked.

I thought Death Instructors use glass swords.

That's too heavy and hard to handle.

Only Salua would use glass sword.

You're a Death Instructor too, right?

Have Mädchen told you this?

Specifically, I was a Death Instructor.

I retired after failing to accomplish
my mission.

Failing to accomplish?

I was injured and banished
by the reason of giving up the sacred mission.

Do not go to the headquarter of Kimluck Church.

I've already prepared myself for this.

Without benefits and purpose,

how would the Death Instructor of Kimluck
help me?

I'm not naive.

Are you still going even if you'll die?

It's the same with how and why I die.

Similarly, to die after 50 years.

Believing in Nihilism at such a young age?

No.

Since I can't decide when my death is,

I'll resist death at any time.

Fear creeps into me.

Yet I still decide to go to Kimluck.
That's insane.

If that brat can realise my fears,

I'll give him battle training.

It seems like he can't make it.

Instructor Mädchen!

Have you got in touch with Salua?

Not yet.

Past and present are directing
the path towards destruction.

This is the promise of the Three Goddesses.

Nothing can violate this theorem,
nor can it resist.

As long as we accept destruction,

the future will never end. Let's pray.

We are holy.

Birth is beautiful.

Fate is just.

Death is sacred.

We are holy.

Birth is beautiful.

Fate is just.

Death is sacred.

Chief Instructor Solude,

your guidance is always heart touching.

Not at all.

You've made great contributions to the church,
I highly admire that.

You flattered me.

I would like to ask your brother for a favour.

I'm seeking for a sword teacher for my son.

I heard that your brother is
a skilful swordsman.

My son wants to be a chaplain.

My brother, Salua is preoccupied.

I haven't seen him recently.

Melon.

Why should I go buying upon that woman's order?

Didn't you take her money, brother?

You're right though.

But I'm not a money-grubber.

I won't help her even if she has paid.

Your words are kind of true yet not true.

In that case, I'm going to hang that woman
with a belt

and get more money. That's the best plan.

Isn't this like a bandit?

Besides, you can't beat her. She's a sorcerer.

Don't mention it.

Everyone here loathes sorcerers.

We hate sorcerers too.

Leap.

That's Yggdrasil Cathedral.

I should be able to go there.

My spirit still can't infiltrate
at this distance.

What kind of defence will it be?

Even with the transfer device of Celestials.

This means that, the cathedral possesses

a robust defence which is comparable to
the sorcery of Nornir.

Logically, Kimluck Church should deny
Dragon Faiths.

Perhaps I should visit the place myself.

Oh my, what's wrong with the sandstorm?

It's better not to breathe in this dust.

No greens are growing in the sandy soil.
One will fall sick due to perennial inhalation.

Obviously, this place hasn't been desertified,

but the air is very sandy.

Over the past 200 years,
it only happens in this area.

We've left the inn for three days.

Finally, we've reached Outskirts Street.

Don't be too nervous.

It'll be all right,
if you don't do anything stupid.

How could I rest assured?

People who live here

are obsessed to burn sorcerers to death.

I didn't mean that.

I was asking you to avoid stupid acts.

For example, don't panic and
make eye-catching actions.

By the way, is this colour calm?

It's less conspicuous than black, right?

This is the colour of formal wear in Kimluck.

Claiomh will laugh out loud when she sees it.

I have something to ask you.

Why didn't you bring them along?
Don't you trust me?

If I don't believe you, I wouldn't have come.

As long as there's a sense of danger,
I'll not bring them along.

But, Oleyl is still in the inn.

He's the believer of Kimluck too.

You can't make sure that he won't hand them over
to the church.

The old man, Oleyl claimed that
he was a Death Instructor.

That's right. He's my teacher.

How many people are there
in Kimluck's assassination unit?

For now, there're six.

These six people are responsible to deal with
sorcerer spies who infiltrated Kimluck.

There must be more to your mission, right?

Obliterate heretic instructors.

And also the investigation on Tafrem City and
the Royal Capital's infiltration and the ruins.

Tasks that can't be handle by common instructors
are allocated to us.

To the outsiders, we're just common instructors.

Oleyl said he retired from Death Instructor
after an injury.

Yes.

Ten years then, he fought with a Black Sorcerer
who invaded Kimluck.

Invaded Kimluck ten years ago?

He's Childman Powderfield.

Amick!

Sword!

The guy named Quo defeated your teacher

and became the leader of Death Instructors.

Why? Are you scared?

I was thinking of crap.

It's right though.

Teacher may have made some mistakes.

Instructor Mädchen, the man beside you...

He will return after unloading the luggage
before Cathedral Street.

I see.

May I know, is Instructor Salua back?

Yes.

Thank you.

Where is the wall of Cathedral Street?

Here it is.

It's called The Wall of Knowledge.

Dividing both Outskirts Street
and Cathedral Street.

Only merchants and Death Instructors
with registration certificates can enter.

It's same when they go out.

It's same when they go out?

You were wandering around
after leaving The Tower of Fangs, right?

Have you met any dwellers of Kimluck
during that time?

Of course, I have.

Really?

Those you've met are the believers of Kimluck

and they had lived in Kimluck before?

If you say so, then it's not.

Right.

Being strict on access control,

are they trying to halt the blood of sorcerers
from coming in?

Hey,

don't act rashly.

Instructor.

Please leave. You know I can't help
with your wishes.

Please listen to us.

You don't have the certificates.

Those without certificates
are not allowed to enter Holy City.

Who is that guy?

He won't enter Holy City,
he just came to help deliver the goods.

You're lying.

We want to enter Holy City too.

That's why we came here.

Only those in Holy City will be saved
when destruction falls.

How about us?

We've been waiting here.

Drag him down!

Stop it.

What are you doing?

Claiomh, why did you follow us here?

I can't see from inside and
you guys are noisy outside.

How scared am I.

Majic, please say something.

I'm starving.

Eating merely one piece of chocolate each day.

The cart was jolting yet I've nothing to do.
How torturing!

By the way, I ate two pieces each day.

Speaking of which, when I realised that
Reki could have made us stealth behind the cart,

my tears flow out of regrets.

I really hope
you could empathise of my sufferings.

So, what are you trying to say?

It means that, we'll fight you till the end
if you're looking for troubles.

Hold on!

Now, Reki!

Run!

I knit thee thus, Chainmail of Haloes!

You guys have caused great trouble!

You should at least tell us,

who is the troublemaker?
