Intermingle Activate Showdown
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.
A Guze no Tomogara, Rammie, appeared before me.
He informed me the City Devouring, which Friagne plans, is terrifying.
Mom, Ike, and Yoshida-san would disappear from this world.
It drove me to act out of fear...
...not even knowing Shana has been forced to make a decision.
Alastor, what did you just say?
I said I'd destroy the Mistes.
Our actions over the past few days have been overly restricted by it.
B- But we need it to lure out Friagne.
The problems caused by it are greater at this point.
Mom and everyone else will disappear?
Not only humans.
As the name implies, City Devouring eats the entire city and changes it to a power of existence.
I wouldn't...
I won't let that happen.
Then do what you can do.
I'm sorry, Yoshida-san.
I'll see you at school tomorrow.
I'm really sorry!
Sakai-kun.
Don't worry about it.
He's just gone to do what only he can do.
It may be a trivial act, but that's the proof he's here right now.
Shana... I have to let Shana know.
Will you really be activating the plan, Master?
That's right, my cute Marian.
Of all the Tomogara, that Corpse Retriever is here.
The situation is critical.
But the City Devouring takes time before it fully activates.
If the Flame Haze were to interrupt it, it would be dangerous for you, Master.
Oh, how kind you are, Marian.
Don't worry, I have a plan.
While the City Devouring is activating,
I will fight with the Flame Hair Red-Hot Eye runt.
The Interpreter of Condolence will use the opportunity to go after the Corpse Retriever.
All we would have to do...
...is bide our time as we keep our senses on the two of them while fighting the runt.
Ring this bell multiple times to bind the keys placed in the Torches, and...
...the power gained from this will make you, Marian, an eternal existence.
We will gain eternity with me.
Master...
Let us start this...
...Our ceremony.
If that's what Rammie thinks, then it's a credible story.
It also explains why there are so many Torches.
Shana, I don't mind becoming bait.
Can't we lure out Friagne?
What's wrong? İf we don't take care of him, Mom and everyone else will...
Why are you staying quiet?
What?
You can't hear what I'm saying?
You can't listen to what a Torch says?
Yu-chan.
M- Mom.
Hello. Are you Yu-chan's friend?
N- No, Shana is... um... She's just a classmate of mine.
So your name is Shana-chan?
Please be good friends with Yu-chan.
Mom, that way of calling me is a little...
What's wrong?
Oh yes. Tonight's your favorite omelet with rice, so come home early.
I'll see you again, Shana-chan.
Just a classmate...
I am just a Flame Haze.
That is all.
In a sense, I am the same as a Torch.
Stop saying "just".
You're the one that said it.
Um, about what we were talking about.
He's such an annoying guy...
Making me feel like this over and over and over again.
Shana, are you listening?
GO AWAY!
Fuzetsu?
Sh-Shana?
Don't call me by such a name.
Why? Tell me why!
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
I'm just a Flame Haze.
You're...
YOU'RE...
Friagne.
Shana...
Why?
I didn't expect you to come out on your own.
It's nice since I didn't have to go to any trouble.
Then a word of appreciation would be nice, runt.
Oh, you're not with that Mistes today?
Don't ask stupid questions when you already know the answer.
I'm sorry about that.
Then, shall we begin?
Here. Come up here, runt.
Is she fighting with Friagne?
All I can do now is to leave the matter to Shana.
There isn't a thing I can do.
Not a thing.
But can you say for sure that you're living as Sakai Yuji right now?
Is it fine to be the you now? The you now?
I can only perceive you as a Torch.
How do you like my favorite Hougu, Bubble Loot?
No matter how well that sword is made, you won't be able to cut this.
Then I'll just terminate the source!
Shana, step back!
Why are you here?
Really, it seems you desperately want me to take the Hougu away from you.
I wonder what's in you.
This is interesting.
The Flame Haze hesitated.
If you want this back, come chase me.
I'll be waiting on the best stage.
By "know a place", you meant Keisaku's house?
Yes. Due to a variety of circumstances, he lives alone in this big house.
Hmm, so you're rich.
I'm envious.
Here goes her jealousy.
Shut up.
But wouldn't this complicate your situation with your parents? Or what your neighbors may think?
Not really.
My parents won't care, and my reputation can't get any worse than it already is.
A- Ane-san, what's this?
A map of Misaki?
I've set a web of unrestricted spells within the city,
so now I can immediately detect if Rammie tries to run away.
So let's start drinking.
Y- Yes, right away.
The runt's late.
She wouldn't fly to pieces with that explosion.
She'll come.
Shana is a Flame Haze.
She'll be here to kill you.
For your sake?
That has nothing to do with this.
Aren't Flame Haze miserable?
Bound by their mission and bound by the King of Guze... Unable to flee.
Really, they deserve to be pitied.
I don't remember choosing my path to be pitied.
Shana.
I'll end this quickly!
Shana!
No, your movements are too linear!
I can't help Shana!
Is it fine to be the you now?
I'm...
Shana's fighting.
I don't have any power.
But there must be something I can do, too.
Shana behind you! Kick!
God, this isn't playtime like at the school.
Concentrate.
I can see the movement of the light balls, too.
If I can see them for her...
Shana, behind you!
Shut up!
Now it's above you!
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
Why? My body is reacting.
And I feel hot for some reason.
The power of the flame is increasing.
Master, please... please stop.
At this rate...
I know, Marian.
But I cannot back away now.
I cannot give up the path to eternity that I have created from this!
Soon.
Soon the City Devouring will start.
I just need to last until then.
Marcosius, this...
No doubt about it. That fetish bastard's started something.
In this situation, I can't catch Rammie even with the web I spun.
Looks like we're stuck, too!
Just a little more.
Just a little more and our unrestricted spell will be complete.
Just a little more.
Master...
Please be safe, Master.
Die, Flame Haze!
Just a little more, my cute Marian.
Soon, our wish will be granted.
It's weird. All the light balls are gone, so why is he still ringing the bell?
Why did he lure Shana to the rooftop?
Could it be...
Could it be that he brought Shana up here to hide this?
Could the City Devouring have already started?
The time has come.
Soon, the City Devouring we wished for will start.
But before that, let's dispose of her.
It's your punishment for going against us though you're a mere tool for hunting.
Shana!
Don't come.
That's right. Before I pull the trigger, let's have your power first.
Don't worry, I won't take it all.
You'd like to watch the City Devouring, too, wouldn't you?
Sh-Shana...
The eternity we'll be gaining. This is a celebration shot for that, Marian.
Stop it. Get up, Shana.
Get up!
Farewell, runt.
Farewell, city which gave me eternity.
Shana!
Not yet...
The ceremony of eternity for Marian and me will not end.
It won't!
Really, how much more time are you guys going to take?
Watch carefully, Marian.
We're perfect.
We will acquire eternity!
Marian...
We've...
...eternity...
You won.
In the end, I was able to stand because I heard your voice.
I'm glad I was able to be of assistance.
He sucked away a lot of my power of existence.
I guess I'll be disappearing.
Maybe I pushed myself too much, when I'm just a Torch.
Don't say, "just."
You're Sakai Yuji.
But I'm sorry.
Yesterday, you lost because of me, right?
That's why you tried to kill me.
It's not like that.
Really.
Then that's a relief.
I guess there was some meaning for me to be here.
Goodbye, Shana.
Wh-What? What's going on?
Looks like there's no mistake about this.
That's the power of the Hougu inside of you.
The most hidden treasure in all of Guze, Reiji Maigo.
It fully recovers the power of existence used that day at midnight.
So that means...
You still don't get it?
It means you still have a future.
Was I disturbing you two?
Do I have to thank you for that?
No, I was just pissed with your slow fighting.
Oh, did I hurt you?
I was going to settle things with you eventually.
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.
Margery Daw chases after Rammie tenaciously due to her hatred towards Tomogara.
Shana, as a Flame Haze, obstructs her way.
Another battle begins.
Next time, Two Flame Haze.
