Let me go...Tate
Yuka.
Do you remember...that day?
Yawaru.
I will take care of everything.
You mean you want me to marry you?
No matter what happens, I will protect you.
I can trust you, can't l?
I only love you.
I accept everything about you.
It's the same now...
I need you, Yuka!
It's too late.
You don't have any feelings for me?
Do you have any feelings for me?
Why don't you sit down Kyoji.
What's up? You keep pacing back and forth like a bear.
Yeah...
You don't want Mr. Bear to call you a "bear", do you?
Here...
Yuka is a grown woman.
She has some experience in Aikido.
You don't have to worry about her so much.
Sorry about that...
I completely forgot that the wick was about to run out.
I'm going to her place, just to make sure.
Hey!
Why do I feel so uneasy?
Wait, Bilka! Wait for me!
Don't follow me!
Go away, Aquira!
Bilka!!
Does it hurt?
No...l 'm just mad that I lost!
Your opponent was Lord Yawaru. There's no way you could've beaten him.
But...
It was just a warm-up game and he wasn't even serious!
Bilka...
Your going to be OK. You'll get stronger in time.
By then, I will probably reach the age to get married.
Bilka?
I've made up my mind.
What?
I was considering it for some time now. I'm going on a training expedition.
A training expedition?
There's a group departing tomorrow.
Tomorrow?!
After you leave, when will you be back?
I don't know...three years. Maybe even five or ten years later.
No! Then we'll never play together again!
Or watch the sunset, swim the river and eat wild berries.
I want...
I want to be the strongest warrior of all the Inca!
Take care yourself, Aquira.
Bilka...? is that you Bilka?
Orehon!
I didn't recognize you!
You sure look like a big shot.
Hey, what do you mean that I only "look like" a big shot?
Have you heard? Lord Yawaru is going to get married!
And who is she? ls she beautiful?
She's supposed to be the most beautiful woman in all the empire.
Really?
Can you guess who she is?
What?
You'll be surprised. It's Aquira.
Aquira!
Aquira?!
Hey, what's the matter with you?
N...Nothing.
Well, if she marries Lord Yawaru, I'm sure she'll be happy.
I'm going to die...
We have to select a successor by following God's law.
Please take care of this....
God...Sacred God of the Inca. Please show us the whereabouts...
of the next priestess to act on your behalf.
God...Sacred God of the Inca. Please show us the whereabouts...
She is here!
I cannot believe that I am to be the high priestess.
This is a fate determined by God.
I don't want to hear any more arguments from you!
The Priestess is critical to bring the entire land under my rule!
There is no room to consider your feelings!
Fate chose me to become a priestess. Or should I say, I had to.
Even after being reincarnated, we're still destined to be apart.
Yet, what kind offruit has that fate brought you?
Choosing the path of a priestess, what was in store for you?
As Huascar ordered, you released Iriyatesse.
And by releasing it, wild flowers, animals and people were all....
Stop it! That's enough.
If I had...
If I had protected you, it wouldn't have happened.
Tate...
I don't want to repeat the same mistake.
That's right. I couldn't do anything in my previous life.
It was my mistake, and as a result....
Huascar's camp is going to release Iriyatesse?
Officially, Huascar has legitimately succeeded to the throne.
They have a priestess necessary for the release.
I heard the old priestess had passed away.
Unexpectedly, another woman was selected as her successor
She was supposed to marry the warrior, Yawaru.
Aquira?
Why? Does that mean...
Yawaru accept edit without a protest?
If Huascar releases Iryatesse,...
you don't know what horrendous things will happen.
Bilka. You have but one mission. Protect the priestess.
Yes!
While I was on an expedition with Atahualpa,...
Aquira and I became separated by a civil war.
I'd given up on ever seeing her again.
But then, I got the chance to get her back.
I haven't seen you for a long time, Bilka!
I never expected to cross swords with you.
Give me Aquira.... Give her back to me!!
Nonsense!
Aquira has become the sacred priestess for our land.
How can you think of taking her away?
You are an idiot for going against God!
God always chooses the righteous!
That's right.
And the one he has chosen...
...is me!
Really?!
Atahualpa's camp is invading our territory?
Yes. The soldiers are lead by a young and fierce warrior, named Bilka.
Bilka?
But don't worry.
Our camp has the strongest warrior of all the Inca, Lord Yawaru.
Lady Aquira. Wait! Where are you going?!
Bilka and... Bilka and Yawaru are...
No...No...!
Lady Aquira, where are you going?!
Atahualpa's Army is invading into our territory!
Let me go!
Let me go...
Lady Aquira, no one can stop this battle.
Right now, these two armies are fighting over you.
Even if you go out...
You'd only end up being captured by either army...
and turn this battle into a full scale war.
I leave the result of this war, to God's judgement.
But, I don't want to see any fighting between...
Bilka and Yawaru.
I couldn't stand it if either one were to lose!
That sounds like that the words of a mere woman,...
not the words of a priestess.
I cannot accept that.
Then, I will resign as priestess!
The world has been revolving around you.
Despite what you want, you are already the priestess.
Going against your fate means...
...abandoning your existence itself.
And you couldn't do anything.
Yet, no one can blame you.
Unless you change from inside the soul, your fate repeats itself.
This is the time for change.
I'll admit, your skills have improved.
However...
Even as you are now, you can never beat me!
Shut up! What are you rambling about?!
What are you fighting for now?
For his highness, Atahualpa!
For a great and moral cause! For our people!
You're lying.
I'm lying?!
Your eyes are those of a wild beast who has lost control.
Not of one fighting for a great moral cause.
What did you say?!
You have abandoned the great moral cause.
And been reduced to a mere man fighting over one woman.
Shut up!
Aquira had feelings for you, once.
And you liked her as well.
Silence! After the way you toyed with Aquira's feelings!
Then you let her become a priestess. You don't have any right to preach!
You simply yielded to Huascar's authority!
I cannot go against my fate.
I don't regret it, as long as there is justice.
I cannot leave Aquira in the hands of someone like you!
I may be a warrior...!
But I haven't lost my humanity!
I hope you live well in your next life!!
What are you laughing at?
You make a brave sound, but you don't show much strength.
What?
Now, it's my turn.
Yuka!
Iriyatesse...Iriyatesse... Doguray May Sodoru...
En Vegay Magus Pave!
Victory is mine, Bilka.
Humanity is a quality that's useless in fighting.
Kyoji!
You bastard!
Kyoji, stop it!
Are you satisfied?
Yuka... What have you done to Yuka?!
Yuka is my fiancee.
It's none of your business.
Now you're her fiancee? After all the pain that you caused her!
So much distress? Why the hell did you come back?!
I made her sad and caused her distress?
Perhaps... Yet, she didn't reject me.
She was at my mercy.
That's...!
That isn't true, Kyoji. What happened was...
This time... This time, I will beat you.
This time, I will never let you take her away from me!
Kyoji...
What's so funny?!
You will never be my equal.
What?
-Wait!! -Kyoji!
Yuka...
I will...certainly...
I will certainly protect you, Yuka!
I will!
I'm sorry...
When you pray at the altar in lkazuchi,...
an evil ambition will possess the magical power of the moonlight.
Go, reborn spirits, to the ancient capital Asuka...
The sacred place where bonding among your friends, empowers you.
