What's going on?
I thought the idea was to imprison the leader of Blue Skull.
Did Mavis forget to lock the cell?
I hope everyone's okay...
Law
Precht!
Where's Mavis?!
Jeez!
Your Illusion Magic is truly wonderful.
You learned it by yourself?
But... I can't fight with this kind of magic!
Please teach me stronger magic!
You mean you want to learn Black Magic?
Black Magic, White Magic, I don't care.
As long as I can use it to fight!
There!
Mama! Gold coins!
It's raining gold coins!
How is this happening?!
Gold coins are raining from the sky!
At a time like this!
It's beautiful!
Huh?
But this is...
...Mavis's illusion.
It's coming this way!
Run!
Get back! The gold coins are an illusion!
I see! She did it to distract Yuri.
Even though he's become a monster,
his treasure hunter's instinct will be attracted to the coins.
Now!
But from this distance...
...I can use Law!
Don't do it, Mavis!
Zera! What are you doing here?!
The magic that Black Magic wizard taught you...
He said it would take you ten years to perfect!
You promised you wouldn't use it while you were still a neophyte!
He said he didn't know what the consequences would be otherwise!
Law is an ancient ultra-magic Absolute Judgment spell
that helps the good and destroys the evil,
according to the user's point of view.
I may be able to use it to save Yuri
and defeat the evil will of the Tenrou Jade!
That's if it's perfected!
But this is our only hope!
Mavis!
Mavis! Stop!
I can't do that!
Mavis!
If there's a greater than zero chance of saving Yuri,
that's what I'll pin my hopes on!
I swear I'll rescue him!
Why would you go that far?!
When you and I were marooned on the island,
Yuri took us to a wide world!
Precht cares about his friends and can be relied on.
Warrod is friendly and sets a cheerful mood.
I want to have fun memories of our adventures with them!
I refuse to let it end like this!
Mavis...
I don't really understand it myself.
Why are they so dear to me?
But it must be... because they're friends!
Friends...
So please, Zera! Get back!
It's dangerous here!
Zera...
After all, I'm your friend too, aren't I?!
Hey, do you still believe in fairies?
Of course.
I'm sure fairies are...
Then I believe in you, Mavis.
Let's go look for fairies together.
All of us!
Mavis!
Zera gave me a lot of courage.
I was able to come this far
because Zera was with me!
Thank you!
Wait, you made that jump by yourself?!
Yes!
It's just as I calculated!
Correcting for errors in the concentration of Ethernanos
in the air, the wind, and the temperature,
it all comes down to this timing.
One!
Two!
Three!
Law!
It worked!
You did it, Mavis!
You saved Yuri and the town!
Mavis!
Mavis...
H-Hey...
Hey, don't joke around like this, Mavis!
Mavis!
Mavis!!
Mavis-san will get better, right?
She saved all of us!
She'll get better, right?!
She ain't dyin', is she?!
Why won't she wake up?
I haven't got the slightest idea.
But...
I'm sorry. There's nothing we can do.
That major magic...
I think this is a side effect of her using it, but...
We're no experts, but even we realize that!
What we wanna know is why she ain't wakin' up!
I told you! We just don't know!
Sheesh! You're nothin' but a quack!
W-Who are you calling a quack?!
Cut it out, you two!
I'm doing all I can!
Mavis-san...
Wake up.
If you're offended, then try harder, you hack!
Hack?! You...
Everyone here wants to show their gratitude.
Please help her!
This little girl saved the town!
Tell us if there's anything we can do!
Over here! Quickly!
Coming, coming. Don't rush an old woman.
The town is demolished.
Yeah.
I can feel it.
The vestiges of a massively powerful spell that was cast...
How's Mavis?!
Still unconscious...
Who is this?
She's come from a wizard guild in a neighboring town.
Well, you could call me a doctor who specializes in wizards.
Oof...
Oh, my!
I didn't realize she was just a little girl!
But it seems she used some mighty powerful magic.
We could see the flash of light from our town.
Hey! What's happening?!
Say something!
Don't!
She's concentrating.
Hey.
I can't understand it...
Understand what?!
Tell me!
Yuri is as carefree as ever.
Yeah, the specialist said he's only sleeping.
When he wakes up,
I wonder what he'll say.
Are you up, Yuri?
Where am I?!
An inn in Magnolia.
Yuri!
Are you injured at all?
No.
Are you okay?
Not altogether.
My head feels weird inside.
It's no wonder you're confused.
The evil force inside the Tenrou Jade was controlling you.
What about Mavis?!
Where is she?!
Is she safe?!
Well, you could say that...
But to stop the Tenrou Jade,
she cast an unearthly spell.
Several doctors have seen her,
but they were all flummoxed.
Then a specialist from a wizard guild in a neighboring town came over.
What are you going on about?!
What happened to her?!
Calm down and listen, Yuri.
The old woman said
this is the price that she paid for using serious magic when she wasn't ready for it.
Mavis won't grow or mature anymore.
Yuri!
Thank goodness! You're back to normal!
How...?
How can you smile like that?
It's my fault...
...that you...
It's no one's fault.
This was my choice.
I'm just glad that you're safe and sound, Yuri.
You should have let me die!
No.
I wanted to save you.
I was trying to outwit you the whole time!
I was using you!
I'm so sorry...
I'm sorry, Mavis...
This isn't like you.
Is your body okay?
Yes.
It seems I won't grow anymore,
but there's nothing physically wrong with me.
Listen...
When I was under the Tenrou Jade's control,
I could hear your voice.
Huh?
You said we were all friends.
Yes. That's how I really feel.
Me, too. We've been through a lot,
but I consider you a friend.
Really?!
After things calm down a bit,
why don't we go in search of fairies together?
W-Where is that coming from all of a sudden?
Don't tell me you feel responsible?
I...
Other than Precht and Warrod,
you're the only person I trust from the bottom of my heart.
Even the rest of my guildmates are a bunch of shady bastards.
You saved my life.
I wanna live for your dream.
U-Um...
I'm touched, but you should decide on your own dream.
I...
My dream is to protect you from now on, no matter what comes up.
And to believe in you.
It's got nothin' to do with age or gender difference.
We're friends.
Right!
So...
Because we're friends...
...there's something I have to tell you.
About Zera...
Is there something wrong with Zera?
Zera, you're here, aren't you?!
Zera, were you hiding again?
It's about time you got used to Yuri and the others.
Zera?
Mavis...
Yes?
I can't see Zera!
I can't hear her voice, either.
No...
It's not just me.
Precht and Warrod, too.
None of us can see Zera.
We can't hear her.
Only you can perceive her.
Zera is an illusion that you created.
Zera is an illusion that Mavis created.
Confronted by that shocking truth,
all she can do is sob.
As Zera is about to disappear, she gives Mavis encouraging words of farewell
so that she'll be able to start walking on her own.
This tale that began from zero comes to an end,
with Mavis starting a new path.
Next time: Eternal Adventure.
This is the end of the beginning.
