A planet filled with oceans of sand.
A world of beastmen.
A world of humans enslaved by the beastmen.
There are two kinds of autumns.
Autumns of bountiful harvests, and autumns of remembrances.
It`s finally in sight-kuma.
Toppy, do you know about this city?
Only from rumours-kuma.
Campus city Galura.
A city devoted to research and learning, gathering researchers from around the world-kuma.
It is said that you can find any knowledge you desire within that city-kuma.
What a strange statue.
I heard that they welcome any seeker of knowledge, whether they be human or beastman-kuma.
Really? That's great!
We really had a very rough time out in the desert.
It`d be really great if we can take a break.
There are two kinds of Autumn.
What a wonderful place-kuma.
Yeah... Such a place really exists...
Welcome!
These roasted taters are delicious!
That`s right. Morte, today we haven't eaten yet.
Do you want some roasted taters...
No thanks.
What's with her-kuma?
We are the WDC, you know.
Come on, don't be such a stiffy.
It's a rare chance to relax,
I will go and buy some.
You're kidding? No way!
It's true.
We should be grateful to you guys.
Everyone's gotten to know each other and look so happy.
My dream is to create a world where beastmen and humans can coexist in peace.
What beautiful bullshit.
If all you have are words, it's just hot air.
Hey Morte, where are you going-kuma?
I'm ba... eh?
She's been like that since we arrived in Autumnland.
Could it be... she's recalling old memories?
What can she be remembering-kuma?
Let's give her some space to herself.
What shall we do now?
It's a rare chance-kuma.
Let's relax and enjoy the roasted taters.
That so? Then I will go walk around a bit.
There seem to be lots of things to see around here.
Excuse me.
We are still closed at the moment.
Umm... excuse me?
Oh, I'm sorry.
Umm.. It's my first time to this city, and I came in on a whim... so..
Oh, I see.
It's been a while since I had some time to myself.
Hey, don't you think that guy's a dreamboat?
Eh?! Really? He's not my type.
It's been a really long journey.
Excuse me!
What a touching scene.
Thanks!
Closed?
Yes, this library is an inheritance from my father the historian.
Even though my sister and I managed to keep it running for a while,
I think it's about time it should close.
I see, you have an older sister?
To be exact, I had.
My father died in the Human-Beastman war a few years ago.
And so my sister left town
and went missing shortly after.
I received a notice a few days ago.
She died like my father after getting involved in the same conflict.
Is this... your sister?
Yes.
We were both orphans.
Father adopted us both and raised us as siblings.
He said there's no difference between races.
But after Father died and Sis left,
I have been wondering.
Is it alright to stay in this city where both humans and beastmen live?
But after I heard the news that my sister was killed by beastmen,
I decided to close the library and leave town.
Umm...
I`m free at the moment.
You're late.
Sorry, I left something behind.
I won't forgive you.
I guess Morte doesn't like it when beastmen and humans coexist together.
Historical Archives?
It is said that you can find any knowledge you desire within that city-kuma.
Maybe I can find out more about the Destruct Code in there.
Come to think of it, why did you come here?
No particular reason, it was along the way.
A woman traveling alone?
That's my sister's study.
She studied Art in college.
I really should have tidied that place up.
But after Sis left, I could never get myself to go in.
How should I put it... it's like I'm afraid of the memories when Sis was alive.
I understand.
Such books have no academic value,
so we kept them all in this storeroom.
No matter how hard we work, we can never get them all sorted out...
It's here.
Thank you for guiding me.
Ah, you're welcome. When you are done, just call for me.
Destruct Code
Holds the power to destroy the world.
Its existence was first discovered in the distant past and has been passed down through the generations.
Come to think of it, where did I first hear of the Destruct Code?
Authored by Dr. Alligator.
Wow, such detailed research, this book.
The Destruct Code, together with the world, were created together by God.
Its destruction can be affected by both human or beastman.
Even though it's really detailed, it still doesn't say anything about how to use the thing.
Excuse me!
What is it?
Can I borrow this book?
Sure, in fact I can give it to you.
No one reads it anyway.
Excuse me...
Yes?
So, Morte volunteered to help a beastman like you?
Yes.
Is there something wrong?
Ah, no...
Well, it's time to end this.
Excuse me.
It's almost dark, let's call it a day.
I guess so.
On second thought, I shouldn't leave things half done.
The faster we finish this, the earlier we can leave town.
Ah, then I shall go light the lamps.
Morte.
What is it?
Where did you get that Destruct Code?
My brother carried it to his death.
It says in this book:
Even though there are many different records,
no one has actually seen the Destruct Code.
I have checked other resources.
But not a single one says that what you are carrying is the Destruct Code.
You trying to tell me that what my brother left to me is a fake?
I do not mean that.
But even if it is real, we do not know how to use it.
Even so, we must end it.
This world.
Where did those two go-kuma?
Morte, even though you cannot accept a city where beastmen and humans coexist,
aren't the three of us doing fine?
I did not journey for the sake of companionship.
Wasn't there any point in our travels that you enjoyed yourself?
I guess I enjoyed it myself.
I have never done such a thing before.
Well, even though I almost died a few times too.
I have always lived alone.
Remember the cafe where I met you Morte?
Before that I have been to several other cities.
But a human is always in fear for his life,
so I learnt how to disguise myself as a beastman.
Even then, I have never slept peacefully.
I even kept this hairband with me at all times.
I could only depend upon it.
Morte, are you helping him because he looks like your brother?
I have always wanted to ask you this before.
Morte, do you want to destroy the world because of what happened to your brother?
Your brother was a member of the Gold Lions right?
And he got involved with the fighting...
That's enough!
It is really tough to enter, eh?
Yeah.
I was thinking, my sister left town because she couldn't accept humans and beastmen coexisting.
Is that really true?
She might be like your father who does not discriminate between races
and left town to spread the message.
I'm going to open the door.
It's not so easy to forgive.
Let's tidy it up.
Could you help me?
Eoru...
Sis...

What are you doing-kuma?

Come on, you two should mimic robots too.
Eh, I`m a bit...
Next Episode, World Destruction Episode 10.
Robots have 108 laws.
Morte, we are friends right?
If only you would loosen up a bit.
You-can-be-our-friend-too...
Kuma.
