I'm sorry.
Once more...
Once more, I've been rejected and cannot do anything for her.
I always try to take on everything, and end up not being able to do anything.
So everyone leaves me, doing their best not to leave anything behind.
Like now, I had decided to fight alongside her...
Yet here I am lost, having not learnt anything from the past.
Freedom.
Loss of mission.
Mission?
Yes, my mission as a Flame Haze is gone, so by all right, I am free.
And yet here I am, frozen, unable to do anything.
I know what you're going through.
We're done with our homework and here we are!
Let me guess.
You were thinking you had to do something about Engage Link,
but got trapped in here instead and were lost in thought.
She shot down your offer to help, huh?
Oops, I hit the nail on the head?
The order of events is incorrect ~de arimasu.
Yeah, yeah.
And for how long do you plan on just standing here?
Metamorphosis is about to get moving again.
If you don't want a certain someone to die, you'd better get moving.
Besides, there's not enough things left on your to-do list to be dawdling.
Engage Link went off with the Hyakki Yakou.
They disappeared along with Kazumi and that old geezer.
That leaves only one thing left to do, eh?
Immediate action.
Now, get moving!
You don't want to lose her while you're dilly-dallying here, right?
Affirmative ~de arimasu.
I will not remain lost in thought, but will move forward...
...if I don't want to lose her.
Here's a word of advice from a Flame Haze that lost the number one item on her list!
Doing is easier than talking to yourself.
You never know what experiences may come in handy!
This is me. Kami wa nabiku
This is me. 髪は靡く
This is me, my hair flutters in the wind,
Akakau somaru hoho ni
赤く染まる頬に
my cheeks blush a bright red.
I am me, ketsui no tsubu
I am me. 決意の粒
I am me. A seed of determination.
Kore wa hajimari deatta
これは始まり出会った
This is the beginning of a fated encounter.
Kibou mo zetsubou ni mo kasumanai ashita ga aru no nara...
希望も絶望にも霞まない明日があるなら。。
If there is hope for tomorrow, then it won't grow dim in despair...
jibun ni
自分に
To myself.
wasurenai kono itami wa ano hi no yakusoku
忘れないこの痛みはあの日の約束
I won't forget, this pain is the promise we made that day.
kanaetai, kanaerarenai, kanaeru kokyuu wo tsukamu yoru
叶えたい 叶えられない かなえる こきゅう を つかみ よる
I want to keep it, but I can't now, only on the night when I capture this emptiness.
Nanika ni mezameta asa
何かに目覚めた朝
So that there's something there when I wake up in the morning.
Wake to iu kasabo to hatenai sora he
訳と言うかさぼと果てない空へ
To give a reason to this endless sky,
Tada tobidatsu
ただ飛び立つ
all we do is fly.
Sou, sore dake
そうそれだけ
Yes, that's all there is.
Something lies ahead.
No one knows what, yet we still proceed.
The world has changed,
and humans and Tomogara have, as well.
Is this an illusion?
I've been looking for you, Travelling Clown, Rofocale!
You are such a pain.
I can only catch you by slowly decreasing the trap's radius.
Why, why. If it isn't the Master of Adaptation and the Exchanger of Exteriors.
For you to seek me with such urgency...
Are you eager to hear a song?
Of course not.
What a pity.
I am but a mere musician.
How else can I be of use to you?
You don't know?!
Of his followers, you're the easiest to find.
Followers?
You are watching what is happening in Misaki City with your noted clairvoyance, aren't you?
So here is my request.
And that would be?
The Oracle of the Guiding God.
World Egg
I never knew sensing the flow of energy yourself was this difficult.
She'll soon figure out the pattern in which I'm using the Silver for defence.
I need to change my approach.
Pardon me!
Near death.
Thank you. So you've come.
The kid's surfacing more.
I guess that's interesting.
I've finally got a handle of the situation.
And I believe she's still our biggest threat.
Additionally, Margery-san has joined them at this point of the battle.
What's Bel Peol saying?
She thinks they set something up inside the tower along with the Ritually-Dressed Chaser.
She's investigating right now.
Good.
Interpreter of Condolence, since you're here...
Yeah, I took care of it.
Hey, he was right there with me, but that's okay, right?
The Spiral Organ leaked the information to us,
and even gave us a secret item to decipher the Taimei Shihen ~de arimasu.
I do not believe he intends to obstruct us.
Trust for now.
She was kind of lost in her own world, so we dragged her over here.
I did all a friend can do, so the rest is up to you.
Let's go, Wilhelmina.
Affirmative ~de arimasu.
Major, a large explosion in the middle sector, area 24!
Pink coloured!
No sign of intruders!
A new signal followed by the electricity in area 4, huh?
The Disperser of Light and the Envoy of Tremor.
It was no surprise to find either of them here...
...but this smells like a trap.
Either way, I must dispatch a search party.
For now, we'll assume the first event was a preset trap and focus on investigation rather than interception.
Yes, Ma'am!
Our enemies are worthy of praise.
They continue to entertain me to the very end.
Major.
I'd like your permission to make a proposal.
Oh? What is it?
Let us assign bodyguards to you in the central control centre in case of emergency.
I appreciate your concern, but it is unneeded.
Unneeded, you say?
But-
All of my tasks, primarily for preparation, are complete.
There's no reason for me to be protected at this point.
No matter what they do...
...at this point, it is too late.
So they succeeded in capturing Rofocale?
Yes, the battle is still raging in Misaki City.
Thus, depending on negotiations, we may reach the Oracle in time.
We have about an hour before midnight strikes, when a shift in the situation is likely to occur.
Yes.
And if the Oracle is brought to our side before then, and if his great ability to sense everything comes into play...
Then we should be able to influence all the Guze no Tomogara to a certain degree.
In any case, everything that can be done has been done.
All we can do now is wait and see.
What is considered victory?
Who are we trying to satisfy?
So by using my God's power, you want me to announce the Flame-Haired Blazing-Eyed Hunter's plan to the whole world?
B-Basically!
It's impossible.
Impossible? But aren't you one of his followers?!
I'd heard that the Oracle of the Guiding God is contacted through his followers!
Yes, that is true.
However...
Then stop making excuses and-
Thank you, Brigid.
We went through the trouble to come see you.
Can you explain why it is impossible?
Very well.
In that case...
Why is it not possible?
In other words, why can it not be done?
It is simple.
It is only natural.
An oracle is not required for something that will come about if events are left to unfold – to which a flow is already set.
When there is no necessity...
...the Guiding God, the Chanter of Awakenings, Shaher, will not be born.
It's as simple as that.
And only natural.
"Born"?
What we followers see and hear will be wasted if no guidance is given.
When a new signal is found.
Only then is an implacable call for awakening made...
...and our God summoned.
Once we're past this...
Looks like they won't let us get close that easily.
This will hurt.
Was that too cruel?
You shouldn't feel bad about this.
We'll kill them all in the end.
God of Death...
How interesting to fight enemies who do not fear my corpses.
Don't you agree, Tezcatlipoca?
'Tis great! 'Tis great!
How innocent they are.
How rakish they are.
My kind! Accept them with open arms!
As a bird...
...I fly hard against wind.
Just how small this planet we live on is.
We confirm as we observe from the world of stars.
The Flame-Haired Blazing-Eyed Hunter's plan is only a small deviation in the already existing flow of events.
It is not worth my God's words.
Then what conditions must be met for you to summon your God?
First, a reality.
If something my God deems noteworthy happens in Misaki City, then perhaps.
And we're telling you the Flame-Haired Blazing-Eyed Hunter's plan is just that!
That, alone, is not enough.
The field is a warzone to create a whole new world.
Nobody knows what will happen.
With some luck, something unexpected may happen.
What... is that?
Hey, King Khamsin.
Don't do things that'll make us stick out.
You're scaring me.
But Gyuuki, if he hadn't shot those down, they would've hit us clean.
We have the girl inside, too.
Be a little mindful of that and help us drive safe.
What?
I have to deal with the head of the Hyakki Yakou?
So you're telling me to fall back?
That's exactly what I'm telling you.
And here I was, just about done setting traps for him.
I'll handle things here.
Hurry and make yourself useful for our Commander!
Our Commander, huh?
Does he really have the authority to give us orders as he is now?
Don't even say it.
He chose to be in that position.
It won't hurt to do something in recognition for the resolve he's shown.
Okay, I'll get going.
I don't want to find you dead later, Ribesal.
Yeah.
At this point, I don't want that either.
Are they planning to separate me from the Commander?
Margery-san.
I'm sorry about what I did to you the other day.
That just happens in battles, so I'm not holding a grudge.
But do you mind standing there and taking a punch?!
You're getting more than just one hit!
Now's the time ~de arimasu.
No failure.
The pig flew up in the air.
The man in brown
Soon brought him down!
Dickery, dickery, dare!
Oh no!
I will not let you interfere.
Damn, I can't resist it all.
Could that be...
Yuuji's unrestricted spell?!
Sakai Yuuji's unrestricted spell?
Not the Serpent's, but Sakai Yuuji's?
This is bad.
Before he can master it, I'll finish things right now!
The rings?
Is she planning to fire off more Taimei Shihen?!
She's planning to punch the World Egg with the rings in hand!
With that unrestricted spell I just used...
I did it.

On the battlefield where all are fighting to the bitter end, confusion and flame reign.
