With the party reunited again, Baron and the others began climbing Sky Tower to reach Empyrean
TL Note - Previously we called Empyrean "Heaven". The Kanji for Empyrean lit. means "Sky World". However, official DFO translation is Empyrean.
to obtain the Behemoth's Tear, which can cure Kazan's Curse and save Stella's life.
While everyone was busy fighting with the Onikishi, Irbek killed Emperor Leon.
In order to change the evil fate, Irbek now leads the Onikishi to climb Sky Tower.
The army prepares to climb Sky Tower.
Chapter name - "Horror! Sieghart of Light! "
Just how long are these stairs?
I can't see the end.
So this is what it's like inside Sky Tower?
This place exists in a different dimension.
You wouldn't be able to know what it looks like from the outside, huh?
Huh, you're pretty knowledgeable, aren't you?
Of course! I came from Empyrean. Go ahead and ask me anything about it.
Oh yeah, you're from Empyrean.
I guess I have no choice. I'll explain Empyrean's history so that even you would be able to understand.
A long time ago, everything in Empyrean was peaceful.
But then, Bakal, the King of Dragons, rose from Hell.
Then...
the dragons attacked, and Empyrean fell into chaos.
The people could use magic, but Bakal sealed it.
Bakal was afraid of Empyrean's power.
However, the people did not give in.
They resisted using the power of science.
And finally, they defeated Bakal.
Since then, Empyrean became a technological civilization, unlike Arad.
Do you guys get it now?
So that's why you're good at mechanical things, Capensis.
So why did you come to Arad again?
Geh...
What's the matter?
Well, a person has his own problems to take care of...
Oh really~?
What?
Since it's Capensis, it's obvious.
I'm sorry!
No way!!!
I'll kill myself now!
Well, I guess I won't do it today...
I bet it was like that!
I can imagine it!
Why you guys...
I can see something.
Which way?
This is the way up.
Be careful from here on, guys!
We know that already!
Looks like they got here before us.
Sorry, Irbek. They got here before us.
Well, it's fine. We should hurry, too.
Irbek-sama!
There's someone who says she needs to speak with you no matter what.
Who is it?
Haine!
Haine?
Stella-sama's nurse.
Please allow me to accompany you, Irbek-sama.
It's dangerous from here on. Are you prepared?
For Stella-sama, I would gladly risk my life.
Hey, are we still not there?
The map doesn't even say anything about this place...
So we're on our own now, huh...?
Seriously, how long are these stairs...?
I'm tired already!
Hey, a light!
It might be the top.
Yeah!
Let's go.
What is this room?
It isn't the top floor?
What's this?
A human bone.
Waah!
What the hell!
Why is something like that...?
What is this sound?
Is there something there?
This is...
Waah! It came out!
Onikishi. For what reason do you climb the Sky Tower? The only ones who may pass here are messengers.
We have our own reasons.
Do you intend to become like those bones?
To hell with becoming bones!
Then, you shall die.
Now!
Here, here, here, here, here, here, here!
Wha-!
This is the end!
What's wrong? Bring it on!
You were planning to fight us with that body?
What's wrong?
It seems that his body is weakened from previous battles.
Fight...with me, Sieghart...
No, I don't feel like picking on weak guys.
I can still fight.
I've defeated this many adventurers...
for the sole purpose of my mission to defend the Sky Tower!
What should we do, Baron?
To fight with him is...
I got it
I'll be your oponent.
Ehh...!?
Baron...
This guy is serious. Got it? Don't interfere!
We got it!
Like you...I won't run away!
I have someone I have to save...so I must get to Empyrean!
Then let me ask you, why do you climb the Sky Tower?
I have someone I want to save!
He says the same thing as that swordsman...
Swordsman? Who's that?
That swordsman was called Aganzou.
Aganzou was here?
You know Aganzou?
We fought each other...
He was one who climbed the Sky Tower.
Then I guess we have no choice but to get past here.
I won't give up until I die!
That's how it should be!
Show me your resolve!
Sieghart, do you plan on losing your life?
I am Sky Tower's guardian...I can't let anyone through!
I won't hold back.
Come, adventurer...no, hero!
I...protected it!
Woah!
Ahh! We're falling!
Hmm. As expected of Sky Tower's guardian.
This isn't the time to say stuff like that!
Ow-ow-ow-ow-ow! My hair is...!
Do something, Capensis!
It hurts!
Sorry, sorry.
It looks like we're saved, but...
What is this?
Hm? Ah!
This boat is...! Don't tell me!
Are you injured?
You're...
It's Kargon!
You finished the ship, huh?
Yup. Thanks to Dekku, we somehow finished it.
You really did it, huh?
I'm impressed that you made something like this...
We saw someone falling, but we were quite surprised that it was you guys.
We fought against Sky Tower's guardian!
How did you know that we were falling?
I saw a light from the Sky Tower.
The light from then...
Don't tell me... Sieghart, on purpose, he...
Aren't you overthinking it a bit?
Who knows? He knew Aganzou, so maybe he let us go?
Maybe he didn't want to fight adventurers anymore.
He was a swordsman true to his master's orders.
Thanks, Sieghart.
Were you all trying to go to Empyrean?
Where is this boat going, anyway?
We're also going to Empyrean.
You guys too? Why are you going again...?
We plan to go to Empyrean and live there.
That's why we've been gathering information on Sky Tower.
We plan to climb Sky Tower to get the Behemoth's Tear.
Behemoth's Tear...?
Do you know about the Behemoth's whereabouts?
I do, but...
Can you use this boat to take us there?
Sure.
Really!?
Yay!
It'd be a lot easier to get there by boat.
Our new destination is the Middle Ocean!
Alright!
Looks like we can go to Empyrean after all.
Aganzou is definitely there.
What will you do once you meet with Aganzou?
I still haven't decided yet!
Are you Sky Tower's guardian?
That's right.
That means that you're our enemy.
What is your reason to climb Sky Tower?
We have no reason to answer to someone who's about to die.
Are you adventurers or invaders?
We're neither.
We are... demons.
We're entering the Middle Ocean!
There's an ocean in the sky!
The Middle Ocean is what divides Arad and Empyrean.
Wow!
How pretty! We're really in an ocean!
No matter how many times I come here, this place is always mysterious.
Hey, hey! Is this all you got, Guardian of Sky Tower?
Irbek-sama, he seems to be weakened.
Why do you say that?
That's...
You're...!
Why are you...
Hurry up and die already.
Heh, looks like he was all talk.
Harusen!
Get away from him!
That bastard! He self-destructed!
Looks like it took out about half of the place...
This place will collapse at any time. Let's hurry and ascend.
Irbek-sama?
No, it's nothing.
You knew that guardian?
No.
It didn't seem that way to me.
Isn't it just that guardian's rambling?
Is that so?
Irbek-sama, it looks like that's the exit.
This is Empyrean?
There's an island!
Where, where?
Is it inhabited?
What happened?
Hey, what's that!?
The island's moving!
Waah! What the hell is this!?
It's huge!
This is Behemoth!
This is!?
B-Behemoth wasn't a person!?
Nobody ever said it was or wasn't, but who'd think it was something like this?
Capensis! You're from the Empyrean! You didn't know about this?
This is the first time I've seen it too!
As expected of Empyrean, huh?
There's all sorts of things you wouldn't find in Arad.
Are you really going there?
I'm going.
This...
this is the reason I've came this far.
In order to get the Behemoth's Tear!
Woah.
This is... Empyrean.
