Irbek.
Watching the sky without a purpose in mind
and looking for the day when the answer can be found.
The wind suddenly rises.
Because of that, I'm anxious of the future.
In this moment, the dark abyss is released in a muddy whirl.
That sound is heard in the screams of Pandora.
The sky of the dream. The cruelty of the dream.
As long as we live together on this planet, we'll dream of them.
That memory of abundant tears.
And the truth that we're too scared to face.
We're here to receive a genuine smile.
We don't know when it started, but we're becoming stronger.
We've formed a powerful bond between us.
For everything,
embark on our journey.
If you listen carefully, you can feel it.
The sound that nothing can replace.
The town with the tower that pierces heaven "The Castle of the Sky",
West Coast. Baron's party finally arrived there.
Immediately upon his arrival, Baron was suspected of murder.
But this is all just the beginning of the looming crisis.
The mystery surrounding the spy Bakan, and also the heavily bed-ridden Stella.
The problem of every thought points to one person - Irbek.
This town, the fate of this continent is starting to move.
Chapter 20
Chaotic fight!
The burning sky of West Coast
I'm sorry for making you look after my sister all this time.
I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do.
If it can be changed, I'll change everything.
Have you heard of Behemoth's tear?
Behemoth's tear?
Yes. I heard of it a long time ago from the people in the Heavenly world.
The Behemoth of the Heavenly world.
Kazan's curse can be lifted with Behemoth's tear.
The Behemoth of the Heavenly world.
Although the Heavenly world is full of danger, but it's Irbek-sama, you can do it.
As I thought, I've to go to The Castle of the Sky.
This might help you.
This is... You actually managed to obtain this.
I stole this one part from the Empire.
It is enough.
If Stella can be cured with Behemoth's tear...
Yes, definitely.
Although we came here as he asked us...
Is someone really coming?
Who is it?
Hum?
Who'd have thought it's Osan.
The world is really small.
Do you know Bakan?
Although we're on different sides, we both wish for the peace of the continent.
We often exchange information.
Bakan asked us to give you this.
What's that?
A map.
Is that thing important?
It's the map to The Castle of the Sky.
The Castle of the Sky. Do you mean that tall tower?
Yes. According to the agreement, The Castle of the Sky is managed by the Dark Spirit Guild.
Even the Empire's people cannot enter as they wish.
Why did Bakan have that map?
Although I can't be entirely certain...
But if Bakan-dono asked you to deliver this to me, then he's seeking my help.
I can only wait for further contact from him.
The Castle of the Sky connects to the Heavenly world, right?
Yes.
Just where is Behemoth's tear in the Heavenly world?
Behemoth's tear?
For somebody knowledgeable as me, even I haven't heard of Behemoth's tear.
I see.
What kind of a hostel is it? It doesn't even provide food.
It's because we ran out of money. Stop complaining.
My stomach's grumbling.
Osan, did you hear anything from Bakan?
No, not yet.
I see.
We're going to grab something to eat. What about you, Baron?
I want to do some investigation on the Behemoth.
It seems a crowd's gathering.
What's going on?
It's the army of the Empire.
How showy.
Leon.
How goes the preparation?
Everything's done.
Then I'll go and see what that guy has to say.
This is the only place where the Emperor is made to wait.
Are you the leader of the Dark Spirit Guild, Debushlin?
Emperor of the Thelas Kingdom, what are you here for?
And you also brought with you a huge army.
I think you'd heard of the movement going through the Arad continent.
I'm here to increase the defence of The Castle of the Sky. Do you not accept?
Ever since The Castle of the Sky appears on this land, the Dark Spirit Guild has been guarding its entrance.
The Kingdom of Thelas has no need to worry. Besides, The Castle of the Sky
does not allow any of you to get closer to it.
Is this what you wanted to say to the Emperor?
I'm only following the rules. It's been so since the beginning.
If you can abide by the rules, we'd have nothing to ask from you.
I understand. Then we'll follow the rules.
Thank you very much.
The rules only last till tonight. Do you understand?
Did you find out anything about the Behemoth?
Nothing.
People with heart can surmount all obstacles in the world.
Can I have it?
You aren't eating it, right?
Uh, sure.
Lucky.
What's wrong?
Who knows.
Thanks, everyone.
Huh?
The journey's been fun.
Why are you suddenly saying this?
Do you have a fever?
No. Not at all.
I just suddenly thought of it, that's all.
Don't you feel that something's not right?
Hey, go and speak to her.
You seem strange today.
Well, do what you like.
Baron.
Do you remember the time when we first met?
Wait a minute.
It's not something I want to remember though.
I'll tell you what happened to me before meeting you.
My family was famous in the Thelas Empire.
Are you the daughter of a rich family? You don't look like it.
I'm sorry for that. That was the past.
Yes. In the past.
Hurry and run away, Ryunmei-sama!
I heard afterwards that it happened because my grandfather persuaded the Emperor to stop invading other countries.
His words angered the Emperor and my family was subsequently eliminated.
My grandfather only left behind his martial arts and this set of gloves.
I'll go and see the Emperor.
What do you plan to say to him?
Nothing.
Could you be...
Please don't ask anymore.
I'm sorry, Baron.
Wh-what's going on?
No way.
Haven't you done well?
Fortunately, the Emperor was on another carriage.
Leon.
You're...
Balien's granddaughter.
Oh, you're the descendant of that foolish man.
Emperor, please give it more consideration.
Thanks to Kazan's curse, the Arad continent is heading towards destruction.
This wouldn't do, to use Kazan's curse as an opportunity to invade other countries and increase the burden of the people.
Have you ever thought that this is the chance for us to conquer the land?
That is shallow. In order to prevent Kazan's curse,
Akard and Roxy sacrificed themselves. They won't rest easy at this.
The strong eliminates the weak. What is wrong with that?
No. I think saving the weak is the Emperor's mission.
You seem to have become quite full of yourself.
How dare you talk back to me.
Don't you think you should improve your attitude?
I cannot.
Even if you're to give up your life?
You actually ran all the way to die here. As expected, in you runs the blood of that foolish man.
You murderer.
Humph. Irbek, I'm leaving her to you.
As you command.
Damn you.
You're stubborn too. Did you get that from Balien too?
Tonight is very important. We'll leave her here.
Aren't you lucky to get to keep your life for now?
Only for one day though.
That idiot.
Are we really going? Hey, hey.
I'm counting on you.
Leave it to me. This kind of a mission is just a side-dish, right?
Are we going through here?
There isn't any other way.
Hurry up!
What is it, coming in at this late hour?
You are...
What is it?
Stop there. What do you want?
Someone asked me to deliver this.
I haven't heard of that. Who made such an order?
It was me!
En... Enemy attack.
I'm sorry, but you're all going to die.
Don't let anyone go. We'll change this land.
We're taking The Castle of the Sky.
Do you think this is allowed?
The Castle of the Sky belongs to the Heavenly World.
I already knew.
Where is this place?
Baron?
Yes, yes. That's ok now.
Geez, aren't you a sight.
Is Stella here too?
Let's kidnap her as well.
Why did you get in my way?
Huh?
Get in your way?
I must kill Leon.
What're you doing?
I understand you want to take revenge for your granddad.
But do you think your granddad would be happy?
I don't think this is like Ryunmei at all.
Yep. Yep.
Uh? What's up?
A fire?
Isn't the entrance to The Castle of the Sky in that direction?
Could this be what Bakan-dono's worried about?
Keep quiet, else you'll wake your neighbours.
Leon-sama. While we were suppressing The Castle of the Sky...
As promised, we're going to the Heavenly world.
Yes. This way, we'll obtain the method to lift Kazan's curse.
Why don't we keep on using that power?
Use the demon's power.
Because of the demon's power, this land has become mine.
There's no need to go to the Heavenly World.
No.
I won't let you go.
Father. Aren't you breaking the promise?
If that's the case, then those Demon Knights who fight for the Empire all along are too pitiful.
You seem to have also become full of yourself.
You talked back to me.
Don't you think you need to improve that attitude of yours?
Please forgive my rudeness.
Keep at it from now on too, Irbek.
Irbek-sama.
Stop it!
This is worse than the fire.
We must hurry and head for The Castle of the Sky. We can't delay anymore.
If you want a festival, then get lost and have it somewhere else.
It's you guys again.
If you get in the way again, then it's your funeral.
My heart yearns for battles.
Begin the battle until the end of today. Play start.
This battle won't end.
Every second every step. Let's fight! Go! Go!
Continue to protect the story that can't come true.
We dream.
We hold hope and courage.
Tears remain on our smilng faces.
We're invincible.
Definitely Break out. Break out. Break out.
Everything isn't a dream. Our wish will come true.
We stand tall and straight.
This is the game that can clear the impossible.
Come, make a wish.
Become your own legend.
The power of heart is limitless.
The battle never ends.

Gather!
Go up The Castle of the Sky
