The Bezarius mansion?
Yeah, we will return soon.
We can’t bother the Rainsworth family forever, can we?
I’m sorry for all the trouble.
No, it was our honor.
It's been fun, since every day used to be so boring.
Won’t it be easier for us to get some real work done now?
Hey, Emily, you shouldn’t say that kind of stuff.
Let’s go back, Oz.
It is your home, after all.
What is it, Oz?
Why don’t you just say it out loud?
Wasn’t all this just to return to your home?
Why do you hesitate?
It’s because of the old man, isn’t it?
Did I hit the bull's eye?
"The old man"?
The person who said...
"Oz is a filthy child"?
You should detest-
Shut up, stupid rabbit!
Why does Alice…?
I’m sorry, Oz.
I told her.
I see.
That place is...
a place I was used to and where went through a lot of things, but...
you know...
Besides, if I return home after ten years with this body...
I wonder what father will think of me.
He’s not there anymore.
The father that made you suffer so much...
Duke Zai Bezarius is no longer there...
Ten years ago,
he vanished at the time of your coming-of-age ceremony.
To this day, I still don’t know his whereabouts.
My father is gone...
Hey, Gil.
Why... did you keep it from me until now?
W-Well…
I did the same.
It was all for the best, right Gil?
Y-Yeah...
It’s so tranquil, isn’t it?
What's on your mind, Break?
Oh, excuse me... Well...
Just thinking about Oz from the other day...
Master Oz?
Yeah.
It was kind of a shocking scene.
Stop!!!
As I thought, Oz is…
able to completely control the Abyss.
But why does Master Oz have that kind of power?
Even now, the truth about the Tragedy of Sabrie is still shrouded in darkness.
However...
Even if it's just a little... The Will of the Abyss probably…
has some special feelings towards Jack Bezarius.
"Special feelings"?
Do you mean love?
If it was milady’s world, it would be something like that.
Am I wrong?
Well, it sure has the flavor of love, doesn't it?
And then Oz-kun is like the reincarnation of Jack Bezarius...
With that…
I see.
Do you mean the Will of the Abyss listened to Oz's words because she saw Jack within him?
We may need to rethink what the objective of the Baskervilles is, don’t we?
The objective of the Baskervilles?
Yeah.
We think of Oz as the key to finding the Will of the Abyss.
However, the Baskervilles didn’t capture him; instead, they threw him into the Abyss.
In other words...
They were trading Oz for a favor from the Abyss.
A sacrifice...?
It couldn’t be.
It was Master Oz?
Just considering the worst-case scenario.
Does Master Oz...?
Probably.
You know him, he is such a curious fellow.
I see.
Young master Oz!
Mrs. Kate!
It’s good that you are well.
You look well too, Mrs. Kate!
Yes, although ten years have already passed.
This is Oz’s house?
Do you have meat here?
Mrs. Kate.
Please have meat prepared for dinner.
It will be done, young master Oz.
The meat will be very juicy...
It’s very good!
I like it, this isn't a bad house!
Meeeeeeeeaaaaaaaat!!!
The house is completely unrelated to this conversation, you know.
How nostalgic...
Nothing has changed.
That’s true.
Father--
Don’t touch me.
You are filthy.
That day, at this house,
I learned about father's feelings.
That father is not here.
It's painful... Why...?
It really isn't a bad house.
No matter how much…
I have decided!
I will live in this house!
Seconds!
Of course.
Really now, Alice.
Oz.
This might be cruel, but...
We have lost hope for the master.
These ten years, we have done much...
To protect the house of Bezarius,
I hoped that you could be the head of the Bezarius house, but...
The problem is...
the Contract of the old man and his Chain, Griffon, is still valid.
Chain?
Father made a contract with a Chain?
Of course.
It is the duty of the Dukes of the Four Houses to make a contract with the Chain that guards the Door to the Abyss.
Hey, Uncle Oscar.
What is it?
What kind of a Chain is Griffon?
It's always been behind you, you know.
Behind?
Oz, stop!
Don’t look!
That's…
Oz!
What’s wrong, Oz?!
Father...
This thing dropped Oz into the Abyss.
So that’s what it was, Gil...
That-That's…
Oz!
Oz! Wait, Oz!
I'm sorry, but...
can you please leave me alone.
Oz's father is one of the Baskervilles?
That means, the one who dropped Oz into the Abyss…
Even I'm surprised...
It really is surprising.
Hi!
Break.
Clown!
Why are you here?
I had a premonition.
So, on a hunch, I came here to see.
So? Where's Oz?
He’s been in his room all the time.
He won’t come out.
Is that so?
So we can't do anything but wait?
Hey, stop.
Knock it off.
Let go of me!
I won’t wait any longer.
This is as far as I'll go.
Just listen to me, stupid rabbit.
Shut up, seaweed head.
Oz is my manservant.
I won't let him do as he pleases!
Hey, wait!
Oz!
Even though he hated me,
I believed that someday he would start to like me.
But that…
That was all just a hopeless dream.
From the beginning, father...
never acknowledged my existence.
The me right now...
My sin, that father mentioned...
I can barely understand it.
The connection between me and the Tragedy of Sabrie...
And...
My power to seize the Abyss.
Who the hell am I?!
Why does he do nothing but deny me?
I'm just me.
I'm Oz Bezarius.
I'm not the reincarnation of Jack!
I have nothing to do with the Will of the Abyss!
Who... am I...?
Aren’t you searching for that with me?
You said...
...we were comrades, each searching for our own true selves.
Was that just a lie?
I see.
I will go on alone.
Oz.
If no one acknowledges you,
you cease to exist.
I still exist...
Alice.
It's morning already.
How was he? Your master, that is.
Oz.
Good morning, sorry for making you worry.
Are you all right, Oz?
Yeah.
I have a favor to ask, Break.
I want to meet the Baskervilles.
Why do you all of a sudden…
I want to see Father.
And then what?
I have a request for him.
I want to check on a few things.
Here it is... I found it, Break.
Wow, that was fast.
I see.
That's where they are, eh?
It sure is related to everything.
After investigating from Pandora...
The current headquarters of the Baskervilles is...
Here, 200 kilometers from Lebeiru.
"Sablier"?
Isn’t that Sabrie?!
That’s right.
It was destroyed by the tragedy 100 years ago.
Although it doesn’t look like it, it’s Sabrie.
Are you really going, Oz?
Yeah.
I will go too.
Alice!
You are my servant.
A servant should never leave his master’s side, should he?
To think that I'd be doing this...
The things that I have done until now...
I knew they weren't the right things to do.
I should just die here.
I thought I saw some bad customers...
Wouldn’t it be better if I bought these?
So…
So… what?
If you were by his side,
that alone would be enough!
With only that, Philip would be happy...
I'd die...
If there's no other way, then, without hesitation...
Then kill me!
If that's what you want--
Everything I said was just because I was running from reality.
After all...
I was so helpless, wasn’t I?
What are you talking about, Oz?
I'm only human, full of flaws. That's all.
After getting such a shock about his father, he sure lost a lot of confidence, hasn’t he?
How was it?
Oz talked about a lot of things to me.
And?
I don’t quite understand any of it.
You really are useless, stupid rabbit.
Then leave me alone and go talk to Oz yourself.
Quite right.
I wonder what he's planning to accomplish by meeting his father?
Maybe to list off his complaints...
and release all of his suffering.
What?
I don’t want to see Oz like that.
Then he will do this in front of his father...
It could be thought of as revenge in a way, right?
Quit it, Break.
Maybe he'll beat him up for all the pain he caused him all these years.
If that's the case, I'll help him out.
No one will get in our way.
We'll go at full strength.
That was my decision long ago.
That's enough, you two!
This is…
The stage of the tragedy 100 years ago.
A most appropriate place for the Baskervilles, isn't it?
Oz, you are not alone.
Don't forget that you will always have us by your side.
That's just like you, becoming all mushy after coming here.
We need someone useful in the fight, got it?
This place is the path to the Abyss.
The power that you saw in the past...
is something that has been decided by that person.
As expected, Oz Bezarius is someone who should be deserted.
Who's there?!
He wanted to see you, boy.
The one who threw you in.
I will grant that wish of yours at once.
Goodbye, boy.
Hey, don’t run away!
That's...
Griffon.
Gil! Break!
Oz!
Damn!
Oz!
Father...
B-Rabbit!
Oz removed the seal on himself...
Alice!!!
Just one hit...
The Chain of Duke Bezarius was wiped out in just one hit...
Oz.
It’s Oz...
Oz’s strength has now...
become my power.
Oz...!
You may think of me as a human full of flaws.
But, I won’t give up my complete self.
To say that I am nobody...
My existence does not come from others.
I will affirm it myself.
What others thought of and will think of me...
I don't know.
However, I...
I won’t run away.
I won’t hesitate, and I will move forward.
As Oz Bezarius.
Oz...
That's all I had to say to you.
Father...
It’s cruel for one person to be deserted.
However...
His existance cannot be allowed.
Otherwise...
Everything…
There may be someone plotting in the dark that thinks this is entertaining.
Whatever they are, they are full of mysteries.
I want not only to accept everything that comes my way, but also...
I want to write my own story.
Even though I may not have much time left...
That’s what I thought.
Oz.
We'll solve all the mysteries...
And when all the riddles end...
You and I...
It'll be fine...
Because the authors... will be us.
