I aimed to graze your cheek on purpose.
That was more than enough.
Muta's poison arrows are menaces!
That will do, Muta.
Yuh!
I know your power well. Hurry, go.
Yuh!
I'll find the youngsters, kill them with poison arrows,
and use this axe...
to take three heads!
Yuh! Yuh! Yuh!
Yuh!
Ancient China.
After learning that the era of saints had ended,
human ambitions were unleashed.
And a storm of violent wars erupted for 500 years...
until over one hundred states were reduced to merely seven.
And now, a wind of great history gusts from the state of Qin in the far West.
This is the tumultuous tale of a nameless boy and a young king who brought the warring era to its end!

The King and the Sword
Let's take a little rest.
Xin, after taking a good look at you, you're covered in wounds, aren't you?
Am I?
Yeah, you are!
Put you arm out.
What are you doing?
Hold still! I'm just wrapping the bigger wounds.
It's fine, I don't need that!
Yes, you do!
What're you gonna do if your wounds start rotting and your arm falls off?
Shut up! Leave me alone!
What the hell is with you?
I'm He Liao Diao!
Like I said, what the hell...?
What're you still doing, tagging along with us in the first place?
There's no way I'm leaving you empty handed!
And there might be something with some value at the rendezvous point.
Are you okay, Xin? Your complexion kinda looks really bad.
Shut up! Arguing with you's what tired me out!
What?!
What kinda attitude is that? Somebody's worried about you!
Let's get going.
All right!
I'll show you the leg strength of the Mountain People!
Don't fall behind, Xin!
Xin!
Still fresh...
Wh-What do we do?!
Did I put the bandages on wrong or something?!
No. His pulse is stable.
His mind and body have just most likely reached their limits of fatigue.
I can't say I blame him...
In one night, he lost a friend, got revenge,
and came all the way here without rest.
Xin...
Let's head out.
But we can't yet!
We need to let him rest a while!
We can't. We don't have the time.
What?!
You're just gonna leave Xin behind?!
I believe I said he's "just a sword" and "if he breaks, I'll throw him away".
So all you care about is yourself?!
Cut the crap!
I thought you were better than that!
Hey, Zheng,
is Changwenjun the only one we can rely on?
That's right.
But him and his guys didn't show up at Heibei Village.
Couldn't he be already dead?
All we can do is pray that that isn't so.
Quite a heavy sword, isn't it?
Truly.
Moron!
What the hell, bastard?!
What kinda commoner gets carried by a king?! Idiot!
Carried? By whom?
When you were out cold, the king ran all the way here, carrying you on his back!
A whole day and night!
What'd... you say...?!
Let's go.
You should sleep a little more!
You were just sitting awake the whole time, weren't you?
I've had plenty of rest.
Hey!
I didn't ask you to carry me or anything, but thanks to that, I'm totally revitalized!
It's my turn now.
Just get on my back and tell me which way to go!
We'll get to our destination before ya know it!
I refuse!
A man cannot do such an unsightly act!
What?!
Quit laughing!
You're so lame!
Hurry up.
Or would you rather I carry you again?
Shut up! Diao!
You bastard, how long are ya gonna keep laughing?!
Hey, Zheng. About how much farther do we have to the rendezvous site?
Just a little further.
I ain't tired or anything,
but when the hell are we gonna get there?!
I thought you said it was just a little further?!
W-We've been running for three days already!
Hey! Don't tell me you're lost, are ya?!
If I think about it, there's no way somebody raised in a royal palace
could know their way around mountains like these without any landmarks!
Th... That's true!
This guy's ignoring us!
You lost jackass! Wait the hell up!
Y-You bastard!
But you stopped all of a sudden like that! What was I supposed...
That hurt, you bastard!
What is with him?!
H-Hey, Zheng!
Zheng... Is this it...?
Yes. This is the rendezvous spot to meet Changwenjun.
We made it!
What an incredible building!
It was made 400 years ago as a summer retreat for the ruler at the time, Duke Mu.
Nobody's here...
We just arrived here early.
There's so much food!
It looks like you could make anything with all that!
I can't wait to show you guys my skill!
Changwenjun must have prepared that in advance.
You can cook?
Don't make fun of me!
When you eat my stuff it'll blow you away!
There should be rooms prepared as well.
Let's get some decent rest.
A sword... huh?
Piao...
Just watch this, Xin!
I'll make something so delicious you won't be able to stand up!
But... It's surprisingly clean for a summer resort made for a king 400 years ago.
Water! Water! Wateeer!
Food's ready!
Wh-What the hell is this?! It's so friggin' delicious!
Diao!
You made all this yourself?!
You're pretty good, man!
Y-Yeah...
Wh-What's wrong with you two?
You're not eating much. You guys not hungry?
We're losing our appetites from looking at you, moron!
By the way, Zheng...
You said this was the summer resort of a 400 year old king, but...
Things 400 years old shouldn't still be left here all tidy like this.
I think somebody had to have been carefully maintaining it
in order for it to be like this.
The ruler from 400 years ago, Duke Mu, was a rarely-seen wise ruler.
Duke Mu was a king who loved people unconditionally more than anyone else.
He showed respect even to the slaves of enemy countries
and is said to have even studied under one.
One day, there was a matter where one of Duke Mu's war horses was killed by Mountain People
and eaten by them.
War horse?
That's terrible!
Diao, ain't those guys relatives of yours?
So did he kill all of the Mountain People?
No. Duke Mu treated them to liquor.
A good liquor that goes well with horse meat...
Wha?! R-Really?!
Why'd he do that?!
That was who the king known as Duke Mu was.
He loved people and didn't discriminate between the people of Qin and the Mountain People...
But this act brought about good fortune to the people of Qin.
He had deeply moved the Mountain People by doing this.
Mountain People...
The State of Qin is located in the Westernmost part of China.
Further West is the vast world of deep mountains.
That's the world of the Mountain People who never interact with the people on the flatlands.
And the king of those mountains joined hands with Duke Mu, forming an alliance.
When a dispute was going on over a 1 li sized territory in China, with hundreds of thousands of people dying,
( 1 li = 416 meters )
Duke Mu opened up a land 100 li in size.
I-Incredible!
But in the end, it was only Duke Mu alone that loved them indiscriminately.
After the king's death, the alliance was lost from the Qin side.
And the interaction with the Mountain People ceased.
This was a place made for Duke Mu to interact with the Mountain People,
but after Duke Mu's death, it was forgotten.
Th-Then who's been keeping it up?
The Mountain People.
Even after 400 years, they haven't forgotten Duke Mu.
They revere the places with memories tied to Duke Mu as holy ground.
On the occasions where they come down from the mountains, they've protected this place.
For 400 long years...
That's such a nice story!
Awesome! I'm moved!
Dukmu, Dukmu!
Having your name going down in history means being like Dukmu!
I'm gonna be a man who's talked about 400 years later, too!
Pipe down!
Do you have to ruin the moment when someone feels touched?!
But you must be happy.
If you stay here, you'll eventually be able to see your comrades, right?
I guess so.
Comrades... huh...?
Don't be an idiot.
I've lived on the flatlands as far back as I can remember.
There's no way I could join the ranks of the Mountain People at this point...
And even if I did, it wouldn't be in a village like that.
Idiot.
It's okay!
I'll squeeze a ton of money out of Zheng
and live a life of luxury and indulgence!
Geez, that Changwenjun guy better get here soon.
My dream life is riding on you, ya know.
If you don't show up, we'll be stuck here forever...
The three of us, here...?
No way! Am I a moron?
It's all about the money!
Money's what's most important!
What the hell're you doing?!
Hey! I found it!
But... What kind of person is that guy, Muta?
I heard he's a warrior from a country even further South than the State of Chu.
When the Qin army attacked Chu, they sought cooperation from Muta's army.
It seems Muta's fighting style caught their eye, and they brought him back to Qin.
Is he really that strong?
Who knows?
But I've frequently been hearing a rumor about how Muta's strength is beyond the level of a human's.
X-Xin!
Who is this guy?
Shut up.
It was you, wasn' it?
The one who killed the hooded assassin.
What if I am?!
I won't give you an easy death.
Prepare yourself, youngster.
What's with this guy?
He doesn't look strong at all...
His body's small and he doesn't have a sword.
But most of all, I don't feel the same pressure from him that I felt from the hooded bastard!
I thought I felt an odd presence for a second, but it was my imagination!
This guy's weak!
I get that you're mad I killed your friend, but you'd better quit.
You can't beat me, old man.
You people from the State of Qin know nothing.
And you're the stupidest of them all by far.
What?!
And first, Zhuxiong is not my friend.
And also, killing you is an extremely easy task for Muta.
Like this, for example...
Wh-What the hell?!

壊れそうな心 紡ぐように
To weave together my breaking heart
yume no kakera mitsume (No more cry)
夢のカケラ見つめ (No more cry）

Voice of soul
Voice of you
kanashimi nara kitto tsuyosa ni kawaru hazu
悲しみならきっと 強さに変わるはず
Sadness is sure to turn into strength
I won't cry
I won't fear
I won't stop

高く翔べばきっと空の向こうに届く
If I jump high enough, I'm sure I'll reach beyond the sky
Voice of mine
Yeah
Voice of soul

I'm stepping back...
Am I scared?
The fear of death attacks for the first time.
Xin! If you're just a sword, you'll be smashed to pieces!
An Unbreakable Heart
