You are so smug and foolish to take me lightly, bastard!
I am here for one reason only, to take you down.
Okay. So what's your next move going to be, pretty boy?
Orcs, attack!
That's a band of orcs!
What are we gonna do now?
Listen, Lars.
Yeah? What is it?
-Is it me or him? -What?
Who's the bigger babe magnet?
You're both horrible!
At a time like this, you're worried about--
I asked you a question, you damn flying rodent!
You… you, of course.
Now, if you don't mind, would you stop ripping my throat out, please?
You're so annoying!
He can't even tell the difference
between a true mcdreamy like me
and some random schmuck with a pretty face.
Interripeli!
I must say, you have guts, pretty boy.
You dared to attack the most powerful wizard
the world has ever known.
Not to mention that you even tried to take him head-on.
I am a warrior. I have no fear.
Victory is meaningless unless it's won fair and square.
Why is some half-assed pretty boy trying to be cool?
You're absolutely ridiculous.
You realize that?
Being elegant, intellectual, and, uh, supremely confident
is for men like me.
You can understand.
It's certainly not for little boys like you.
Let's face it. I'm the ultimate handsome hero.
He's consistent. I'll give him that.
I guess we're about to see what kind of hero you really are.
One question before we get into this.
Are you the one who turned those humans into stone?
You'll find out once we do battle!
Let's go!
Yogeki Hyakuretsuzan!
Whoo, doggie! Talk about a close shave. Good try.
You used Illusion.
Be very careful!
He's using the Hariken style of swordsmanship!
And what the hell is that?
It's the source of all the classic styles.
It's not like Gara's style. It's a mix of swordsmanship and Ninjutsu!
So don't get careless!
Whoa. You sure know your trivia.
But then, you were a swordsman.
I won't kill you immediately.
I have some questions that you'll need to answer first.
No. I don't feel like answering questions.
Now, take this!
You were so damn serious.
You know how boring that is?
Dumb as a bag of rocks.
Sean Ari.
Sean Ari. What have you done with her?
You used Illusion.
She was a magnificent fighter.
Tell me, why did she disappear?
-Were we betrayed by her? -Who knows?
She probably got tired of pretending to fight in this fake war.
Shut up!
That's something you'd never be able to understand.
We Three Sorcerer Generals share a bond stronger than blood.
She'd never betray us!
It's the one thing I can be certain of.
Hmm. Well, well.
I wonder if that means she fell in love with me for real?
What? Where's Sean?
What did you do to her, you bastard?
Tell me while you still can.
Don't tell me you were in love with that virgin?
You gotta be kidding me.
You animal. What did you do to her?
You really need to ask?
She tasted so good.
I took her. That's what I did.
Oh yeah, and she actually was a virgin.
You disgusting creep!
That sword! No way!
Okay, Efreet!
I carried you with me all this way.
Now it's time for you to do what you were meant to do.
So get at it!
So it truly is the legendary Sword of Fire.
You're not a pretty boy.
You're a pretty girl!
What does that matter?
My mission hasn't changed at all.
I've never lost to anyone in my entire life except for the Empress Nei.
You men are pathetic! You only have one thing on your minds.
Yeah. Well, you got me there.
Huh?
Empress Nei gave me this power
in exchange for my pledging absolute loyalty to her!
I'd be careful, boss!
This one's got some serious magic.
Kandalos-trata amsotos yonde lutsun!
Talas!
My body…
Dark Schneider!
Your clothes, your body, blood, and flesh
will all turn to stone.
You'll stand there exposed to the wind and rain forever!
Your legend has reached its end.
If I really am turning to stone,
I'll make a freaking dynamite statue for sure.
Men like you are nothing special.
When you're a warrior like me, man or woman doesn't matter.
What matters is life and death.
You'll regret opposing Empress Nei and making an enemy of me.
Listen to me, girl.
You say you've never met a man who could best you in battle.
And you say that you're not a woman, but a warrior.
But that just proves how hung up you are about being a woman.
What a pitiful girl.
Looks like you need me to set you free.
Shut up, you stupid fool!
All of your talking only serves to make you more pathetic.
Do you really think you could seal me away
with a measly little petrification spell?
Oh, and, uh, there is a spell to turn me back again, right?
Good luck!
That spell I used on you is not just any incantation!
It's an old spell resurrected by Empress Nei!
This spell's power is derived from the ancient war gods!
What the hell?
Then that means it's High Ancient Magic?
That's right, Dark Schneider!
I wish I hadn't said that, 'cause that can only mean one thing.
I can't use normal magic to break this spell!
Aww. Too bad.
And look. The stone has already reached your chest.
Can't you do anything about this?
I thought you knew Ancient High Magic too!
Least that's what you said!
Now we're dealing with ancient gods.
You know how hard it is to come up with a counter spell
when you're half turned to stone?
I need to think! I need to focus!
Then you've got this.
All you have to do is find out which god is the source of that spell.
Ugh. I don't have a chance in hell of finding out which god.
Wait a minute.
Even if I'm not in communication with that god,
it's still possible that I could find another one somewhere close by
and ask him to deactivate the spell.
Except I don't have any damn time to look for one.
This isn't good!
I don't want to be stuck in this stupid pose!
What have I ever done to deserve this?
You know, after turning you to stone,
I was going to leave you be for all eternity…
but what you did was unforgivable.
You defiled Sean Ari and destroyed the bond we had with no remorse.
So for that, I've changed my mind,
and I'm going to kill you on the spot.
You see, if your statue stays pristine,
the spell can be broken by a wizard or magician with enough power.
However, if even the smallest piece of your body breaks off
while you're made of stone,
It'll be impossible to bring you back to life.
Could we talk about this?
Shatter,
Dark Schneider!
Dio!
This can't be happening.
What? How can this be?
A Ritual Spider?
Dammit!
Talisman Magic.
Sean Ari, why?
Why did you betray Empress Nei?
Why did you betray the Sorcerer Generals?
Kai, you may not understand, but this man has great power.
Not even Master Kall-Su, nor Empress Nei, have the abilities that he can command.
His powers are so strong that they completely envelop his enemies.
Open your eyes!
This is the first time you've been with a man.
You're hoping and dreaming that he's special, but he's not!
You might be right, Kai, but there's more.
When I fought him, I sensed his abilities.
I felt how truly powerful he is!
You have to believe me, Kai!
He's far beyond Master Kall-Su.
Stronger than even Empress Nei.
I am sure that's how he won over Master Gara too!
Sean…
What can I say?
They always come back wanting more, huh?
You're so stupid! I told you to be careful!
You know, you're actually pretty cute when you care.
Can you, uh, get your friend to calm down?
I pity you.
You're so damned loyal.
He's just using you. Can't you see that?
Get out of the way and let me get rid of him.
No, Kai! I can't do that!
I have to protect him
even if that means opposing Empress Nei and betraying you.
Sean Ari!
Talisman! Ritual Spider, devour her now!
Yogeki Hyakuretsuzan!
It's no use. She's much stronger than I am.
I can't believe you let yourself fall in love with him, Sean
It's done! I can never forgive you for this!
I have no choice.
In the name of the god of war, Yng Wei,
I'm going to kill you both!
She means it this time!
No, Kai! I don't care if you kill me!
But I'm begging you to let him live!
No!
You'll both die!
You son of a bitch! What's so funny?
You're gonna kill me, huh?
You idiot!
In your anger, you slipped up and said the name of the god
who's the source of this spell.
Your puny powers mean nothing at all!
You're no match for me!
What? That's impossible!
Incredible!
Behold the one and only powerful Dark Schneider!
Just when I thought I couldn't get any more embarrassed.
Oh brother!
I'm unique in the world.
And I'm the most beautiful human on the face of the earth!
Oh, gods! How could you have played such a cruel trick on me
and saddle me with such a heavy burden as this?
Ew. That's disgusting!
You filthy pig!
That's the last time you'll swing that thing around like that
Because now you die! Talas!
Thanks for the tickle.
Your god, Yng Wei,
the one who's the source of your petrification spell,
he's just a subordinate to one of the gods I'm connected with.
In other words,
my god can deactivate all your High Ancient Magic!
And now it is my turn!
Witness the power of my god, Blackmore!
From the snow-capped mountains to the gates of Babylon.
Ray Bow!
And I went easy on you.
Only because you're a woman.
And now this thing of mine is gonna teach you a lesson.
It's so huge it's shaking hands with my belly button,
but I guess you noticed that.
Please! Don't do anything to her!
She was just being loyal to Empress Nei!
If I were you, I wouldn't get so cocky just yet!
I'm not done with you.
Come to me at once, my servant!
It's a cockatrice!
How appropriate.
There's no way she could have ever cast that petrification spell
on the entire city by herself.
It takes too much magic.
This cockatrice is the one who's behind that herd of statues.
Hey, warrior!
Siccing a monster on your enemy when you're about to lose,
reeks of desperation.
Shut up! You're just a pile of lust!
You deceive women and use them as shields, you filthy, dirty, disgusting coward!
Go, my Cockatrice!
Turn him to stone! Shatter him to pieces!
She's not lying.
If you get too close, it will turn you to stone!
Petrifying gas?
Damn!
That gas's petrifying effect doesn't come from any ancient god!
I thought I'd already found a way to deactivate her spell.
Now I'm back to square one!
Don't even think you're going to escape from me this time.
You're going to die together with that miserable traitor!
It's managed to get upwind from us!
Get them!
No! This way!
Dark Schneider!
You're hurt!
I'm going to finish you off now.
Hot damn!
She could control that beast as though it were one with her own body!
That crystal amplifies her thoughts and transmits them to the cockatrice.
There's got to be a way that we can destroy that thing,
or, at the very least, get it away from her somehow.
That's it! Then we could take-- Uh, too late.
A little too close for comfort if you ask me.
Farewell to you, Dark Schneider!
It can't be.
The wind, it's changing!
Oh no! My crystal!
Cockatrice!
It's gone completely out of its mind. You can't control it now.
Kai!
She was so busy gloating over her coming victory,
she didn't notice the wind had changed direction.
Pathetic little woman.
A mad cockatrice is a piece of cake.
But I can tell you one thing.
You're gonna owe me big time after this.
Cockatrice be Damned!
That's showing them!
Kill me.
If you don't kill me today, you'll live to regret it!
You broke my spell and killed my beast.
However, I haven't lost to you yet in a fair battle!
After I've healed, I'll come after you again.
Come and kill me anytime.
But let's fix you up.
If you're gonna kill me, we'll have to heal those wounds properly.
He's… he's so warm.
I never knew a man's body could be so big and warm.
Why is my heart beating so fast?
Listen. I have to suck the poison out of you.
Huh?
Huh.
I have to say, you're a tough opponent, you know that?
That was a close one, actually.
Much closer than I'd like to admit.
I'm going to warn you this one time.
The third Sorcerer General is more experienced than me or Sean.
Remember that.
Don't think you'll have an easy road ahead.
It's just the opposite.
Is that right?
His power has increased through the ages.
No one knows what he's doing now.
I did hear that a few years ago he used his own magic to make his body immortal.
His magic is getting stronger and stronger every day.
They say there are only a few spells that'll work on him.
You're not worried about me, are you?
That's absurd, you idiot!
I don't want you to die
before I get the chance to kill you myself!
-Hey, virgin! -Huh?
You guys were pretty good friends, right?
So take care of her.
Ow! What are you doing?
What'd I say? You're ruining my face!
Bye, bye, ladies!
Make sure you grow up into good women, otherwise, I'll be back.
-Where have I heard that before? -It's what Yoko'd say…
-Yep. Well… -I didn't sound like her?
I will dropkick you again.
Sean,
I think I understand what you meant now.
Please forgive me if you can.
Kai, I…
I know he's a legendary wizard,
but he's still a human being.
I don't think a human, no matter how skilled,
has the slightest chance against the Count.
Take care of yourself, Dark Schneider.
What is it? What's wrong?
Hey! What the heck is going on?
I wanna do laundry.
Hmm?
I said I wanna do the laundry!
I'm not liking this!
Oh no!
I must have used too much magic since I left the ninja fortress.
Lucien Renlen is getting control of me again.
Dammit! I have to block it!
But we're in the middle of enemy territory!
Dark Schneider!
Hello there.
Huh? Dark Schneider!
Um, do you know if Yoko is around here?
Yoko!
Onward! There's no turning back now!
Show them what a knight's honor really means!
Tell me how the battle is proceeding.
Please, dear Father.
Don't speak. Your wounds could reopen at any time.
Put your mind at rest, Sire.
Our army is ready.
They won't lose. They're strong.
Please, Sire.
Focus on recovering from your wounds as soon as you can.
I suppose I should.
By the way, Great Priest,
has Tia Noto Yoko left the castle already?
Yes. She left some time ago on her search for Dark Schneider.
It's a daunting task, but that is the destiny
that awaits the one who breaks the seal of the legendary wizard.
She's strong in the same way that her late mother was.
I have no doubt she'll succeed.
Princess Sheila, Great Priest.
The fourth arch has just fallen!
It can't be.
That means that the front arch is our last defense!
I'm afraid it's only a matter of time before it falls.
This is quite dire.
If they get control of the seal guarded by our royal family,
the world will be destroyed!
We have to stop that from happening, at any cost.
I fear we're losing this.
You seem to be in a bit of a pickle without Dark Schneider!
What? Is this a joke?
Ninja Master Gara?
Ninja Master Gara and his 2,000 Dark Ninjas!
Huh?
I'm here to help, old man!
