Looks tasty...
Hey! What are you doing?
Let's get going.
You never said anything about having to sail to Helheim.
Uh, well...
What did you just say?
That they got some of the finest booze there?
I don't mean that!
Do you know how to get to Helheim?
Don't you know who I am?
I'm God with a capital G.
And don't you forget it.
I remembered an even easier way to get there, that's all!
That's why we're here lookin' for a boat to Helheim.
You don't believe me again?
Look me in the eye.
Do these look like the eyes of a liar?
Rage of Bahamut
People always say
black or white but the world is so gray
Even angels and demons would wish the son of God I praise
temee no gen'in wa temee no naka kara
You're the catalyst for what you've wrought
zenbu hikurumete omae no saga
Raise the curtain and you're the star
kizuku koro ni wa mou rolling the curtain
But by the time you realize, the show's already over
It's too late if you want to do something
What the hell is wrong with me?
I can't remember what I wanted to be
This is what I found
I can see the key that scattered around
kono yoru ga aketemo nanika kawaru wake ja nee sa
Try as you might to shatter the night, ain't nothing changing here
Can't say no; yes, I know that I
I'm the only one
who can save myself
I've never forgotten
All I wanna be is me
A boat that goes to Helheim? Never heard of one.
Helheim?
Does it taste good?
Don't know!
No idea!
Where's the boat?
Just chill out for a second.
Maybe it's just not here yet.
That lousy ol' Bacchus. Did he give me a bogus tip?
Looks tasty...
This is bad.
Amira's gonna figure out I've been lying unless I do something, and fast.
Wanna go to Helheim, do ya?
The boat's this-a-way.
Oh, wow! Silly me! It's that-a-way!
What a relief.
They lost them?
They did keep their eyes and noses on them all the way to Nebelville.
Yeah, yeah!
But their scent suddenly vanished, woof!
It's a mystery, woof!
This is what you get for relying on some mangy mutts!
The cat's hissing about something, woof!
He's annoying, woof!
What did you say?!
Stop it, all of you.
Someone must have intervened.
Either the gods, one of their human pets,
or perhaps...
Wait, are you suggesting it was someone opposed to Lord Lucifer?
It's possible.
Since ol' Satan is resting in peace, the God Key could play a big part in the struggle for his place.
Have the dogs resume their search.
You, too, Pazuzu.
Just where is that girl headed?
Yep! Here we are!
This is the boat to Helheim!
Celephales
------------------------------- -------------------------------
Celephales
------------------------------- -------------------------------
Right?
This is the Celephales.
And that fellow over there is her captain.
Amon, you bastard! You're alive?!
That's my line, Favaro!
What in tarnation are you doin' here?!
Who's that? Your mother?
Hell no!
Been three years, huh?
What're ya up to these days?
Why aren't you following in your old man's footsteps?
That's what Barossa would've wanted.
I dunno.
I'm not really cut out to be a bandit leader like my old man was.
Being an "honorable thief" just isn't my thing.
I prefer being in business for myself. It doesn't cramp my style.
In that case, who's she?
What's a bounty hunter dragging around a young girl for?
Well, some stuff came up. You know how it is.
Have you seen this man?
Yeah. He was just looking for a boat.
A boat headed where?!
I-I'm not sure. But he's probably long gone by now.
What a shame.
It seems like we're too late.
Why are you following me around?
To pass the time.
I'm only kidding.
I was all alone in that village for so long, you know?
Plus, I have no reason to stay there anymore.
What are you going to do?
Isn't it obvious?
I'm going to catch him, even if he flees to the ends of the earth!
You really hate him, don't you?
How come?
Well, it's—
Sir Knight!
You're looking for someone, I hear?
That dream again?
Doesn't look tasty.
You there. The catch-and-release fisher-demon.
Does this look familiar to you?
A duck?
No!
It's, like, huge and, you know...
An alligator?
Hell no!
It breathes fire and burns whole towns and stuff like that to a crisp!
Doesn't seem tasty.
Are you honestly that hungry?
Favaro...
How's about a drink?
I've got some tasty eats, too.
Ooh, I was just feeling a bit parched!
Hey, you!
Wait up!
Dagonia

Dagonia
------------------------------- -------------------------------
Tell me what you were about to say.
You're awfully curious for a dead person.
Favaro and I were childhood friends, actually.
Do you still remember?
That day we did our final job with Barossa,
stealing the tribute to the king...
I belonged to a family of knights. His was a carpenter family.
Despite our differences in status, we got along well and spent much time together.
I thought we were best friends,
so I told him about my father without any suspicions.
Yet...
He had deceived me!
He hid the fact he was the son of a thief
and waited for his chance to get information out of me!
He made a complete fool out of me and sabotaged my father's mission.
But my old man died.
The jewels we stole contained powerful magic,
and it called forth a horrific demon.
Everyone was slaughtered.
I was the only one who survived.
It was your old man who saved me, in fact.
Favaro, I'll do whatever it takes to get you two to Helheim.
Thanks.
What's an "old man"?
Old man? There were plenty back at the port.
No! I mean the "old man" you were talking about earlier!
Oh, we were talking about my father.
Father?
You got one too, do you not?!
I don't know.
What is a father like?
I'm not sure how to answer that.
Your father is your male parent. Your mom's husband, y'know?
My mother's... husband?
Yep. That's who your father is.
My old man... My husband...
No. Your father.
My father...
Wh-What the...
Rage of Bahamut
Sorry to interrupt...
but it's time for you to jump ship.
What do you mean?!
We'll be takin' all your valuable stuff now.
I bet the li'l gal will fetch an especially nice price.
Pirates?
I see. So that's what this is about.
You can curse your misfortune all you want on the sea floor.
B-Bastard!
That's enough, bounty hunter.
Drop the sword!
It seems like your shit outta luck.
I'd say you're the unlucky one.
Huh?
A-A crab?!
It looks tasty!
Huh?!
It does have a nice boiled look to it, but...
It's the Shipwrecker!
That thing's sunk countless ships!
Where are your weapons?!
This is a cargo ship! We don't got anything like that on board!
Run!
I should've known!
Found you!
Not tasty.
You don't say.
Favaro, you're...
I-It's a bit complicated, you see.
Does it have anything to do with that tail?
Tail?
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don't get the wrong idea!
This tail isn't—
Color me shocked.
I had no idea you were a demon, too.
"Too"?
Don't move!
Just stay right where you are, missy.
Amon, you son of a bitch!
I had a bit of a career change.
I went from being a thief... to being a demon!
It was all planned from the beginning, Favaro.
Lidfard's execution for failing to protect the jewels...
Barossa and his men getting slaughtered by a demon after stealing them...
That same demon granted me magic powers in exchange for making it all happen.
You betrayed... my old man?
I ain't cut out to be an honorable thief, either.
He was too much of a goody-goody for me.
It was suffocating being around him, I gotta say.
So I was surprised when I heard you showed up at the port.
Now I get to profit off of father and son!
What?!
Still, that gal pal of yours has got a serious bounty on her head.
Just who is she?
Hell if I know! Just some girl!
That so? I guess I don't need you anymore, then.
Run! Run!
Run!
Easier said than done!
But I won't go down without trying!
You can control zombies without your spell book?!
Unfortunately, there's more than one tool for the job.
Also, how are you still able-minded even as a zombie?!
Hold on tight!
Damn, where did he go?!
After 'em! Don't let 'em escape!
Favaro!
Where are you, Favaro?!
Kaisar?!
Y-You...
Aren't you Lidfard's son?!
Who in the blazes are you?!
You're a bounty hunter, too?!
Those two are mine, though!
What the hell's going on now?!
Favaro!
Hand over the girl!
He's mine!
Know what your old man hated most?
Crooked aristocrats, authorities, and demons!
That's why he refused to learn about magic...
and wound up dead!
Just like this!
You idiot! That could've killed me!
This is the end, Favaro.
You can curse your bad luck, just as Barossa did!
Actually, the bad luck...
is all yours!
What are you doing?! Let go!
Let go of me!
So long.
I managed to con four suckers today! This must be my lucky day!
Hey! Watch where y—
Did you just say something, Hansa?
I gave 'em a lift here to keep 'em from attracting any attention.
Demons!
Fishmen! Fishmen everywhere!
But it was a waste of a trip, it seems.
Favaro!
It's time for me to settle things once and for all!
Man, you just don't know when to quit.
Wh-What the hell?
Now, then. Come to me.
Lady Amira!
Amira!
Kaisar!
My destiny,
sotto oshiete hoshii
won't you tell me?
aenai
But you're gone
ima wa tooi place to be
in a place so far away
unmei wa kawaru to
When my destiny changed
oshietekureta the truth is free
It taught me that the truth is free
I miss you
I revere you
You're my everything
I will follow you
subete wa ano toki
For everything since then
To the promised land
tsuretette
So take me
yakusoku no basho e
to the promised land
It looks like we have an extra guest.
Kill him, woof!
Barbecue him, woof!
Wait.
I'll put on an even better show.
You're hiding something from me!
No, I'm not!
Don't play dumb! You wanna do the preview solo!
Hogwash!
Hmph. Nonsense.
On the next Rage of Bahamut: Genesis, "Rescue in Sword Valley."
Happy?
Yes!
