Oz Bezarius.
In the name of the Chain of Judgment, I shall bring judgment upon you.
Your sin is...
...your very existence!
Someone once said...
...that a darkness would appear that would swallow everything.
But...
that doesn't mean there was never any light.
Young Master!
Young Master! Where are you, Young Master Oz?
Young Master Oz, where are you?
Young Master Oz!
Young Master! Young Master Oz, where are you?
For goodness sake! Where could he have gone?
Young Master!
Gilbert!
Yes.
Since you're the Young Master's servant, you should know!
Gilbert! Where is Young Master Oz hiding?
What happened to the Young Master?
It's almost time for the banquet, but he's nowhere to be found!
yet he's nowhere to be found!
Don't tell me Young Master intends to boycott tonight's ceremony?!
W-Who knows? Actually, I haven't seen Young Master since lunch.
By the way, Gilbert... I heard from Young Master,
That you seem to have a phobia of cats!
The Lakeside! Young Master and Miss Ada have gone to the Lakeside!
The Lakeside, eh?
Alright, let's go catch the Young Master!
Young Master, you can come out now.
Thanks for the hard work, Gilbert!
Mrs. Kate's gonna scold me for sure!
That's too bad, Gilbert.
Alright, Ada. Let's go to the chapel!
Please wait for me, Young Master Oz!
Not so loud, Gilbert!
Mrs. Kate'll hear you.
S-Sorry!
They sure did a good job at renovating this place.
You can't even tell that it's an old building.
It was repainted especially for you, Young Master.
It feels kind of too gaudy.
Wow!
Pretty!
So the ceremony's being held here tonight?
Yep.
It's as if everything is wishing for your happiness, Young Master.
That's the Tranquil clock...
Yes, it's the Tranquil Clock, which has hibernated for a hundred years.
The prophecy says:
"The Fated will walk towards the Promised Place
and the Clock will sound and break the Silence."
Who's that?
So you're here, you bunch of naughty brats!
Uncle Oscar!
You're always worrying people.
You're such a bother.
Don't make Mrs. Kate worry too much.
But she's even more uptight than usual.
I just wanted to loosen her up.
I don't blame her for being uptight.
After all, this is the coming-of-age ceremony
for the next head of the House of Bezarius, one of the Four Duke Houses.
I'm talking about just that!
Why do they have to make it so complicated?
What a pain!
For a noble like you, who's turning 15, it's inevitable.
Just give it up.
Well, I am happy that I came to this place for it.
It's been two days and there are still places I haven't explored yet. I'm having fun!
This mansion is pretty amazing.
It's said that its history spans of over 200 years.
Nowadays it's only used for Coming-of-Age ceremonies.
So it's really that old.
Isn't it even older than "The Tragedy of Sabrie"--
Well, anyway, this isn't a place where you can come as you like.
Just consider it a party and have fun.
Alright.
Will you be hosting the ceremony?
Yeah. I'm sorry about that.
It should've been your father instead of a replacement like me.
What are you talking about?
To me, you're just like a father.
In fact, I think it's better this way.
Oh, right, Oz.
That favor you asked from me was finished in time.
Really? Great!
I hope it fits.
There won't be a problem.
Master Oscar! Is Young Master Oz in there?
Uncle, please! Can I play for a little longer?
You can't! You promised to stop by 3 pm!
Shut up! I already said I'm playing for a while more, didn't I?
Young Master!
Dinah
Now, now! Don't bully Gilbert too much!
You wanted to buy some time, right? Be back early.
Master Oscar!
Ah, I got it! Give me a minute!
I'll come too!
Listen up, Oz.
You're not allowed to fool around during tonight's ceremony.
I know.
If you were to create any trouble,
I'd call a Chain of the Abyss on you.
Sorry, but that threat died a long time ago.
Ada, let's go!
Wait, Young Master!
Master Oscar!
Coming, Mrs. Kate! Sorry for the wait.
Where are we going, Young Master?
A secret base! Nobody can find us there.
Pretty!
It's the Capital, Leverru.
Hey, Brother. What's the Abyss?
Ah, it's a prison for bad guys.
It's said that once you get locked in there, you'll never come back out.
Gil, isn't that the prison we read about in that book last time?
That's right. The Chains of Abyss will descend upon criminals,
and take them to a very scary place.
That's how the Legend goes.
You two, come here and take a look!
Hurry up, over here!
What is this?
Isn't this place great?
I found it this morning.
Pretty!
Indeed.
Gil, here.
This is... Isn't this a little small for Young Master Oz?
Idiot, that's not the point.
It's for you, Gil.
What?!
It's been decided that you have to participate in tonight's Coming-of-Age Ceremony too.
My clothes are too big for you.
So I got Uncle to tailor it for me.
What's this?! You never told me!
Of course! How could I tell you?
I didn't tell you, just so I could see that helpless look on your face.
Gil, it will look great on you!
I can't! Please get someone else!
It's alright.
You're not playing an important role.
You just have to help me put my robe on at the end of the ceremony.
Either way, if I were to pick someone for it, it would still be you.
No, I don't mean that!
Then what's the matter?
I'm only a servant!
I'm not qualified to be involved with such a ceremony!
You're wrong, Gil.
You're not doing this as a servant.
You're participating as my friend.
I-I can't accept that either!
Eh? Why?
If a servant like me were to become Young Master's friend,
I would be laughed at by the Nobles to no end.
But I don't mind.
I'll be lectured by the Old Master!
It's okay!
He's so busy with work, he can't even come to his own son's Coming-of-Age Ceremony.
He won't come back just to lecture you.
Young Master!
What's this? This sound...
Sound?
Ah, Young Master!
This sound is...
...a music box?
Young Master!
Brother! Gil!
O-Ouch.
Hey, you still alive, Gilbert?
S-Somehow.
What is this?
Could this be... a graveyard?
Yeah. But it seems like there's only one grave.
Eh?
The name is too blurred to read.
Seems like it's really old.
Young Master?
What's this? This feeling...
Young Master?
Um...
A melody I've never heard before...
A watch whose owner is unknown.
Yet it feels like...
Where is this?
He's back! Finally he's back!
She'll be happy. She'll definitely be very happy.
We've been waiting for you. We've waited for so long.
What is this?
Everyone, please calm down.
You're scaring him.
You are?
You came after all.
I'm so happy...!
Everyone hates me to the core.
So nobody came to look for me.
W-Wait a minute. I'm confused with all of this.
Who are you? Where is this place?
What are you talking about? Didn't you always used to come here?
Me?
Yes... When I was lonely, you would always be there for me.
As long as I can be with you, I don't mind being trapped in here forever.
What exactly are you?
I am...
What is this...?
You...
Stop it!
I'm going to kill you.
I'll never forgive you.
Never...
Never!
Remember this. No matter where you hide...
...I will always find you.
Let go!
What's wrong?
Are you scared of me?
That's fine. Enjoy that feeling of fear to your heart's content.
Fear.
Trembling.
Despair.
I'll let you experience them in their entirety.
And at the end, I'll personally...
...kill you!
Young Master!
What's wrong? You were staring into space.
Is something wrong with that watch?
What just happened?
Is it alright to bring that watch back?
It's alright. I think I'll ask Uncle who was buried in that plot.
Let's put that aside. Here!
For the details regarding tonight, ask Kate.
I've already told you, Young Master! Someone like me can't take part in the ceremony!
Dinah
I got it. I won't force you.
Young Master.
I won't mind if you don't come.
Let's get changed for the ceremony, Ada, Dinah!
Ok.
That's got to be a lie.
Young Master Oz! What is this? You're covered in filth!
Sorry, Mrs. Kate!
Change your clothes quickly!
Come to think of it,
was that just a dream?
I can still feel the sensation of being strangled.
What do I do?
Do I go as his friend?
Someone like me...
That's a pretty uniform.
Let me have a look!
This would be Mr. Henry and Mrs. Harber.
Mr. Ramses and his wife are here!
"The Fated will walk towards the Promised Place..."
"...and the Clock will sound and break the Silence."
Will the clock hand...
...move?
That time...
...if I had not come here...
What's wrong, Young Master Oz?
No, it's nothing.
Looking back, if I had never made such a decision...
The sky's turning dark.
Gil.
Look at this! Don't I look like a prince?
Yeah, it suits you well!
How's it feel on your body?
Hmm, the quality of the silk is a little low but this body is really agile!
It hasn't stopped playing since earlier.
Shall we go now? ...to bestow upon the descendant of Bezarius
the greatest blessing of all!
A nostalgic tune.
Is it calling for me?
