Dark Schneider!
Don't you die on me, you bastard!
Kaboom!
The ultimate handsome hero,
Dark Schneider,
just conjured up one hell of a metal volcanic blast,
to come back to life!
-Dark Schneider! -Dark Schneider!
Agya!
Dark Schneider!
I can't believe it!
Even after taking that magic attack, he's still standing!
Hey, dumbasses!
This is nothing to get excited about.
You're all such freaking wimps!
You guys are nothing but weak, lowly commoners,
while I'm a brilliant, beautiful hero chosen by the gods.
I'm Dark Schneider! I'm on a whole other level than you!
That idiot!
He's acting tough, but he's really hurt.
He got hit by Exodus, after all.
Your immortality never ceases to amaze, Dark Schneider.
Dammit…
But it's over for you.
You don't have any strength left to fight.
I'll kill you now.
For the sake of our ideal society.
Not a chance.
You can't kill me.
What?
I'll show you
that I can kill you!
Arshes!
I love you.
WAVERING
I love you.
Shut up!
You'll say that to any woman you see.
I don't want to hear it!
Second heat!
I summon thee!
From dark heavens, roll forth. The spirit of thunder!
Gilbert!
What is happening?
A spirit summoning.
Nei has summoned thunder spirits from the Wind Elemental plane.
-Agya! -But summoning is a double-edged sword.
If her concentration fails and she loses control,
the summoned spirits will attack the summoner.
Damn.
I wasn't expecting thunder spirits.
-Wah ko! -Wah ko!
-Raven! -Raven!
That's the spell of flight.
Fire spirits, out of the sun!
Eternal flame, heed my cry!
Tafolla!
Dark Schneider is summoning, too!
That's Salamander!
I see.
If any spirit can match a thunder spirit,
it's that one.
Summoning one spirit is hard enough, but they're controlling so many at once.
They're both extraordinary magicians.
Go forth!
Spirits of thunder!
Stop it, Arsh!
Knock it off already!
Shut up! Don't call me by that nickname!
Dammit!
You won't get away.
What even is that "ideal society" you keep babbling about?
I'd expect that crap from Kall-Su,
but why do you need a justification for conquering the world?
Silence!
This isn't like your filthy plan to make a harem for yourself!
Why you…
The Sorcer Kingdom is an ideal society governed by magic.
A world without racism, poverty, and war.
That is a dream worth dying for!
You're full of crap!
Hatred and conflict are part of human nature.
Do you really think you can make
a world of eternal peace?
A vulgar lowlife like you
could never understand how I feel.
Half-elves like me were a product of war.
We were shunned by humans and elves alike.
Someone like you could never understand
how we've suffered.
Abuse, contempt, outright hate, discrimination…
Since childhood, I've been covered in wounds that would not heal.
Then when the tribal war against the wood elves began…
the dark elf tribe that had cared for me despite knowing I was a half-elf…
abandoned me.
Without understanding why
I wandered the scorched earth for days.
But my tribe had long since departed from the battlefield.
They saw their chance to get rid of me.
Arshes…
From those days of starvation and cold, I learned
that the half-elves need a sanctuary!
That is the reason I fight for my ideal!
Darsh! You're finished!
Arsh, did you forget?
When I passed by, you reached out and grabbed my robe.
For the next 100 years…
I was your sanctuary.
Try to remember.
Arshes.
Remember our life as father and daughter.
Darsh…
Over these last 15 years, I've never forgotten about us.
Because to me, my memories of those 100 years…
are all I know of paradise.
Even if it was all a game to you.
To me…
Darsh…
Arsh.
Darsh…
Darsh!
Arsh?
Arsh…
Just as I anticipated.
Look, Kall-Su. Arshes Nei's nail has changed color to purple.
Cursed half-elf. She is still captivated by her love for Dark Schneider.
Now, let us see what will happen.
The more Nei opens her heart to Dark Schneider,
the greater pain she'll experience from the blue nail embedded in her body.
When that nail turns bright red,
that is to say, when Nei has completely betrayed us,
her body will tear itself apart…
All that will be left is a miserable, ugly little toad.
Will you not watch?
No need.
If Nei dies, you or I will kill Dark Schneider.
That's all.
I'm going back to my first division.
You look like you're in pain.
There is only one way out of this torment, Arshes Nei.
Kill Dark Schneider and tear out his heart!
If you can't do that,
you can never break the curse of the Accused,
half-elf!
What's wrong, Arsh?
I almost fell for your tricks.
Nei.
You must have seduced hundreds of women like that,
to turn them into pawns for your ambition!
The salamanders' movements are becoming erratic.
Is Dark Schneider losing concentration?
He's at his limit.
If he takes any more damage…
I'll give you eternal sleep.
Wolf Fang Thunder Blast!
That could actually kill him!
Lucien!
You're no daughter of mine anymore!
He always said that whenever we argued.
I'm sorry, Darsh.
It was my fault. Please don't hate me.
It's okay. Don't cry anymore.
I love you.
Really?
Of course.
"You're no daughter of mine."
"I love you." That's what you said to manipulate me.
Those words put an end to any argument.
Darsh… I was nothing but a rare half-elf that you raised on a whim.
But…
do you have any idea
how much you meant to me?
Once you have engaged me, Arshes Nei, in battle,
surrender is not an option.
The defeated must all die.
You were so much more to me than just a father
or a lover.
You were the only thing
I could rely on.
You were…
everything I ever loved.
Please…
stay down.
Why?
Why do you stand back up?
Why? Darsh…
How strange.
I don't feel any evil intent from her anymore.
Instead…
she's just like…
a crying child.
What?
What's going on?
Are they running amok?
Nei's thunder spirits are out of control!
Agya!
Little girl!
Yoko!
What?
Yoko!
Yoko…
Yoko?
Oh, thank goodness.
You okay, girl?
Oh, this is nothing.
I'm not ready to croak yet.
Agya!
-Agya! -Princess Sheila?
Princess Sheila!
What a relief.
She's just unconscious.
Crap!
The thunder spirits are attacking Dark Schneider and Nei!
It's no use.
I can't do it.
I can't…
This is the end, Dark Schneider.
I'll finish you with my next spell.
With those injuries, you can only manage one more spell at most.
Squeeze out the very last drop of your power.
If you can't defeat me, then your girl will really die.
Something's off.
The thunder spirits were out of Nei's control when they attacked the girl.
What is she doing?
I knew it.
She's acting strange.
It doesn't look like she's really trying to kill Lucien.
I'm warning you, Arshes.
I'll destroy anyone who hurts that girl. Even you.
Let's get it on!
You'd better hurry, Arshes Nei.
Once the nail turns crimson, you're done for.
Tear out Dark Schneider's heart, and use the blood to break the curse.
It's the only way for you to survive.
Prepare yourself, Dark Schneider!
This destructive spell will end your life!
Bring it on!
I'll fight back with my own ultimate spell!
It has already begun.
Are we too late?
They're unleashing unprecedented magical forces.
They'll end up killing each other.
No, wait…
When I saw Dark Schneider in my vision, his chest had been torn open.
The outcome of this duel is obvious.
The storm is fading.
Here they come!
They're casting their spells!
-Kiske, Hansen… -Kiske, Hansen…
-Grosskopf, Sielck. -Grosskopf, Sielck.
What?
They're casting the same spell?
And not just any spell.
It's Dark Schneider's unfinished spell!
-Wisemen of Hades, all… -Wisemen of Hades, all…
Hold fast the seven keys… Swing wide the gate of Hell!
No way!
Did Nei manage to complete it?
The spell of ultimate mass destruction?
-Helloween! -Helloween!
Farewell, Dark Schneider.
I love you.
Lucien!
They're colliding!
Are they evenly matched?
No, look closely.
The ground is cracking behind Nei.
She's being pushed back.
Dark Schneider's spell is slightly stronger.
Helloween can't be maintained for long.
Just a few more seconds!
The immense repulsive force between them
will blow Nei away!
Please, let it end.
Before the curse
transforms me.
Darsh!
This is wrong. She's crying.
A little more. It'll be over soon.
She's crying!
No parent and child should kill each other.
That's just not right!
Please, stop it!
Make them stop, Gara!
What?
It's too late to stop this, little girl!
They're in a trance-like state right now.
They can't hear us!
Besides, the power of a magic spell can't be recalled.
Once it's been released, there's no taking it back!
No…
Lucien!
She can't take any more.
Witness the end of the Thunder Empress.
When I die…
I want you to hold me…
one last time.
Darsh…
Dark Schneider.
What the hell?
Who said that?
What?
You're…
Lucien Renlen?
Dark Schneider.
Because of her love for you,
your Arshes is suffering a pain worse than death. Can't you tell?
Open your eyes and take a good look at your dear daughter.
What did you say?
What's that?
Accused?
Trapped in her unrelenting torment,
Nei has chosen death.
Not by the curse, but at the hands of you, her beloved.
How can this be?
This must be Abigail's doing.
Darsh… I love you.
I love you.
I love…
That bastard…
How dare he do that to my dear daughter?
Helloween is disappearing.
What is happening?
Lucien…
I see. A teleportation spell.
He teleported Helloween somewhere else.
I'm alive?
How?
Darsh?
Does it hurt, Arsh?
I'll set you free now.
