Infinite time stopped beating its heart, and humans burnt away without making any noise.
Not one person notices as the world becomes dislocated and is covered in the flames of Guze.
And stain this sky red.
Just walk through the times that approach you with your own body.
People that walk by you and things that get lost in the mess all have a time when they'll disappear.
Passionate unwavering strength...
Transient and wavering weakness...
In the end, it's the same future.
Melting down the rock hard Earth
As days start and the world ends.
Draw a line as the wind blows you.
Tips of paper flowing like water spear the enemy.
The determination wells up within me.
All I have to do at this moment is to complete the mission with these hands.
Although I will disappear one day, I remain as Sakai Yuji right now.
Although I will be forgotten one day, my power of existence remains within Ike and others.
I was satisfied with that and felt everything was over.
I thought I understood everything...
But I understood nothing...
Everything was just beginning,
including my relationship with Shana.
Flame Haze in Wonder
Let's see, where's a coffee spoon?
That Torch's light was almost out...
...but it re-lit all of a sudden.
How? İt's impossible.
The Hougu within it could be the reason.
What... Hougu...
Could it be?
Reiji Maigo.
But it can't be.
It's hard for me to believe, as well.
I can't believe that it's right before me.
Yeah.
If it really is, then we must not let the Hunter have it.
We'll have to continue observing.
Sorry to make you wait.
Here.
What?
N- Nothing.
It's starting to rain.
I can see that.
Why not come inside?
Inside?
Yeah, I mean, you'll get wet.
Besides if you're going to keep an eye on me, I think it'd be better for you to be close to me.
I... suppose.
It didn't occur to you before?
Is it that great of an idea to boast about?
I'm not boasting.
I'm just wondering why.
Flame Haze do not care about weather.
I'll go in.
P- Please do.
Mom's sleeping on the first floor, so it'll be fine as long as you keep it down.
Go ahead and sleep there.
I'll sleep in dad's study.
I came in to keep an eye on you, so why are you going to a different room?
Eh? But...
You brought up the idea.
Sleep here.
Wh-What are you doing?
Changing.
Isn't it obvious?
Ah, well... but...
Some other place to...
What are you being uneasy about?
There's nothing for you to care...
Hide somewhere.
If you peep, I'm hitting you.
I- I'd never...
Hurry up.
Don't rush me.
But this is unexpected.
What is?
So you dofeel embarrassed.
Pajama...
Told you not to peep!
I wasn't!
I was asking you if you had pajamas or anything like that.
I don't.
I only have underwear.
Alastor uses fire to purify me, so it's only pseudo-changing.
Really? That's convenient.
There's a jersey in the drawer next to the bed, so use that.
Oh yeah, you didn't have anything with you, did you?
Most of my stuff is in it.
In what?
In the Yogasa.
Inside the black robe Flame Haze wear.
It's like magic...
It's Alastor's power.
That's amazing.
What kind of person is Alastor?
I am not a human.
I am also one of the King of Guze.
Eh? So you're same as those who devour powers of existence?
There are those who will eat existences as they wish,
by the same token, there are those who hunt for those that eat, like myself.
There are powers of existence in this world that do not exist in Guze.
Tomogaras come here attracted to that.
They grant their desires using powers of existence.
I see. And where do these Tomogara come from?
From Guze.
A world located next to here, but one that can't be walked to.
Something like a parallel world?
There wouldn't be a problem thinking of it like that.
However, mistreating powers of existence will one day lead to the destruction of both here and Guze.
To prevent that, we, Flame Haze, exist.
"We," you said... so you have teammates?
There are other Flame Haze, but they're not teammates.
They all have different motives and methods of fighting.
There are times when Flame Haze fight each other.
There are bad-tempered ones, too.
I think it'd be more efficient if you all cooperated.
Ow...
What's wrong, Yu-chan?
Nothing, I was just cleaning my room.
Really. Well it's late already, so stop when you can.
Y- Yeah.
I should've hit him at least ten more times.
I don't understand. It's a Torch.
That's because...
What's there to be embarrassed about showing your skin before rocks and trees?
You usually...
I just didn't like it for some reason!
Do you feel that?
Yeah, it's a Flame Haze.
You think it's after Friagne?
Even so, if they find out we are already on to him, they will step aside.
Nothing good comes from Flame Haze encountering one another.
Yup.
You have your best room open, right?
Y- Yes ma'am.
This is the best in this city?
I'm so happy I'm about to cry.
Why not hook up with another guy and get a better place?
Eh, my sexual princess, Marjorie Doe?
Shut up, stupid Marco.
Damn it, that fuckin' Corpse Retriever sure came to a crappy city.
Not just a Tomogara, but there's even a Flame Haze here.
There's shitload of Torches, too.
Thanks to those, it's hard to sense his presence.
What a waste.
Then why not shred and burn that Tomogara or the Flame Haze first?
I guess I could.
Anyway, this place sucks.
What's with these tiny bottles? They're all cheap crap, too.
This sure is best hotel!
I won't have to smell your boozed up breath tonight.
I do sense it.
It is a Flame Haze.
Unfortunately, I do not have time to waste on the Mistes anymore.
Master, not only do we have the Flame of Heaven's Flame Haze, but there's another one, as well.
Please be careful.
Do not worry, Marian.
Just a little more, and the power for you will be ready.
I will not let them hinder us now.
When this plan succeeds, you will no longer be a tool called Rinne.
You will be an existence that lives in this world.
Master, you have been treating me well enough.
No, it is not enough yet.
You would disappear in less than three days if I were to stop providing power to you.
You are too transient of an existence right now.
I feel that is an inseparable bond between us.
Ah, Marian. Marian.
What delightful words you speak.
But you see,
I want to complete this no matter what...
My destiny for coming here from Guze...
The reason why I sought existences in this world.
Since it is all for you, Marian.
Ah, what a beautiful view.
See how many powers of existence there are?
Master...
Do not fret, it will work out.
Why...
I'll sleep a bit.
You haven't had any good rest recently.
Why not go back down?
Yeah, you're right...
What a nice smell... Pillow...
Oh, it's Shana.
W- Why?
So you're awake.
W- Why is she here?
It's nothing for you to worry about.
"Nothing to worry," but...
YOU!
W- Wait, I've done nothing.
You don't remember?
I suggested you sleep inside.
You seemed fatigued.
You were the one who crawled into the bed half-asleep.
But there isn't any problem.
The usual you would...
That's right, there isn't any problem...
...since you're a Torch.
Is that the issue?
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
Fine. In any case, we've got school, so get changed.
I'll go wash up.
Why...
Oh man.
Her face was cute.
What am I thinking?
Hey! Run like you mean it!
What's Kondo thinking?
Isn't he too into this?
Who knows, he's always been a weird guy.
True. He's a pervert, too.
You there, what are you chitchatting'bout?
Really.
Hirai, I hear you're being a stuck up and making fools of teachers, but I won't let you in my class.
I'll remake you.
What is this? How many laps is he going to make us run?
It's a bit strange.
But it looks like this won't cause any trouble with the teacher.
Why?
Damn it, Hirai looks absolutely fine with this.
What's going on?
God, this is just a spartan drill.
I'm starting to get pissed.
Yoshida-san!
Kazumi!
'ey! What're you doing?
Sensei, please let Kazumi rest.
She's anemic.
If you keep using that as an excuse and skip class, you'll never get any stamina, will you?
Sensei, please stop.
It's too much.
Sakai, I'm doing this to trai...
You're in the way.
H- Hirai, why you...
What stupid training.
It only makes us tired and there's no point to it.
You, give an explanation as to the purpose of this class.
W- What?
You... Hirai, I hope you know what it means to treat a teacher like this.
Are you all right?
Ah... Yes.
It's a problematic act!
I'll suspend you! No, I'll expel you!
Such an eyesore...
W- What's that face you've got?
Shana wouldn't punch him, would she?
Why don't you say something?
Hirai's up to it.
Ready?
Yeah.
Oh no, what do I do? Stopping her isn't going to do it.
Hey, Hirai, don't you hear me?
Kick him!
Thank you.
Sensei, are you all right?
It's dangerous to walk onto the track all of a sudden.
Wha...
Right, everyone?
R- Right.
Yeah, that's right.
I saw it all.
I saw it, too!
Hirai-san's so fast.
It's like a traffic accident.
Y- You guys...
Think you can threaten him a bit?
Something simple.
He's still on the track.
Sensei, it'll be dangerous if you don't watch out.
Can we be dismissed now?
It's self-study for the rest of the time. Do whatever you like.
Yeah!
Sakai, when did you get those guts?
Hirai-san, you're amazing!
That felt good!
"Things are going well."
That was what I was thinking...
...not even imagining how lost Shana was.
I meant to punch him.
Kick him!
I don't mean to compliment, but that command was fabulous.
Without that, you would have punched him, and it would have been an inconvenient situation.
It's so conceited!
To make me...
Why? Why?
Why get so irritated over just a Torch?
I don't know and wouldn't know.
God, this is annoying.
The Tomogara and the Flame Haze's presences are all mixed up; I don't have a clue where the Corpse Retriever is.
That must've been what he wanted.
He's got us good this time, partner.
We'll search a little deeper than usual.
You sure? Another Flame Haze is already here. It's like picking a fight in their territory.
Why care? İf they bitch about it, I'll show them what they deserve.
I like that! All right, bring it on, I'm totally ready!
Note: She is chanting the names of the Four Evangelists in Latin, in the form used for direct address.
Place yourselves in the four directions and wake the ghost from its dreams!
Looks like they didn't leave.
They should have noticed that we're here.
It's an unrestricted spell for wide-area scanning.
Will you be going?
Careless contact will lead to a battle.
If it's a battle, then I don't have to think about anything.
Marco.
Looks like they caught us.
Stop the spell! Looks like they're really up for a battle.
Bring it on.
Fuzetsu!
You guys!
Flame-haired...
...Red-hot eyes, eh?
What are you doing?
Aren't you a brat without manners?
Can't even say hello?
It's been a while, Flame of Heaven.
Alastor, you know him?
Fang of Devastation, Marcosius and Interpreter of Condolence, Marjorie Doe.
It can't be any worse; they're already ready for a fight.
If you guys would just leave this city, I will send you off.
We were here first.
I will hunt Friagne.
I see, so the one that was here was the perverted doll-lover.
We'll take care of him later.
The one we're after is the Corpse Retriever.
The Corpse Retriever?
He's an exception amongst Tomogara who cares about the balance.
Exception?
What kind of exceptions are there with Tomogara?
We'll kill all Tomogara.
We have to kill and kill and kill them all!
We're such diligent Flame Haze!
Stop speaking shameful words with another's hatred, you battle freak!
Isn't that a comment...
Alastor, I still can't fight?
Wait.
So you won't leave.
Take her on, my beloved goblet, Marjorie Doe.
She left the Tomogara loose until this many Torches have accumulated...
Bet she's nothing.
You're right, sucks how weak she is.
Want to try it?
Wait! Don't go unprepared.
Not too bad.
Her movement's good.
It's the proof that she's the Interpreter of Condolence, the Flame Robe, Toga.
Be cautious.
Isn't she a hasty brat?
You missed.
So, which one's next?
Calm down. Think of the next move.
I won't think anything.
Nothing at all...
...since I'm a Flame Haze.
There!
You missed!
And here's a prize.
A fox rain, shower in a sunny sky.
Done in three seconds.
Are you really the Flame-Haired Red-Hot-Eyed one?
You're a little too weak.
Whatever, I'll make the next one the last blow.
You're right, since it's not that fun, let's end it with a big one.
This can't be happening.
I'm...
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Marriage, illness, all in one.
I'm...
Solomon Grundy!
Watch out! Get out of here!
You're done.
Why?
Shana is lost in wonder.
Kazumi's affection grows.
While the two feelings intertwine, the Hunter and the Interpreter of Condolence face off.
Next time, Each One's Feelings.
Each One's Feelings
Those born with the dawn
Do not lose sight of it.
You are you, girl, it is time.
Shake it off and stand up!
There is not a single way to just gaze at you as you run through the wind
With that hidden wounded heart.
Are those eyes of yours searching for the you that stands somewhere ahead of you?
But I can hear your deep sad heartbeat...
Screaming!
I'm just telling, the darkness before the dawn
Could even determine the fate of the life
Don't worry girl, it is time.
There's no need to be mortified or be ashamed.
Far away...
Carry the cross on your back and run through the fire ready to die.
