Only evil things?
In that case, why are you suffering right now?
Where am I?
Poor child...
Your body is haunted by The Fourteenth.
What makes you think that you're innocent?
It was your God's left hand that saved the countless defiled souls, not you.
You, too, are one of those who needs to be saved.
Allen
"What're you doing there with a sword stuck in your body, 'Allen'?"
M... Mana?!
"I've been waiting for you all this time, 'Alle*'"
"Now, the audience is waiting for us, 'A****'"
"Hurry up. Hurry up. '*****'"
Wait, Mana. That's not my name.
My name is Allen! Call me by my name!
My name!
Allen...
Are you up?
Oh no, I fell asleep on the inspector's bed...
It's a bad idea to go check on someone right after finishing the assignment, huh?
Lenalee?
Lenalee Lee!
If you're up, come out of the room!
Link? Why are you outside the room?
Even I can't work in the same room
with a woman who's asleep in an unbecoming position!
Next time you interfere with my work, I'll sue you, Lenalee Lee!
He's right, Lenalee. If it was Lavi, you would've been assaulted.
Don't worry.
I can fight back.
That's not my point!
Don't yell like that, Link.
It gives me a headache.
Hey! Open the door!
You really are interfering with my work!
More importantly, are you okay, Allen?
What?
Never mind.
Okay, then.
If that's how it is, I'm going to see Chief Komui
and tell him that you're alone with Lenalee Lee in a locked room.
I'm sorry! Link!
Wait!
I was wrong!
Did my eyes play tricks on me?
Allen looked like a different person.
What's wrong, Tycky?
My scars are throbbing with pain.
Tell me, Road...
What are these feelings I'm experiencing?
Tell me, boy...
Allen Walker...
Night 4: Blood Crusade
Now the Phantom Thief G incident has splendidly been solved!
Right?
What happened to that brat?
It's been decided that Timothy will become General Klaud's apprentice.
So he's studying very hard to become a fine Exorcist.
Thanks for your good work, too, Kanda.
That was...
Come in.
Excuse us, Chief.
Oh... You're here, too, Bak Chang.
North American Branch Chief...
Renny Epstain!
Ways to destroy Akuma?
Yeah.
Ones other than using Innocence.
Self-destruction and cannibalism.
Cannibalism?!
One Akuma being absorbed by another.
Cannibalism, huh?
But that guy garbed in red seemed human, so he wouldn't be one.
I heard that he wasn't an Exorcist at the Order.
Does that concern you?
Yeah...
An Akuma was...
What? An Akuma?
That time, certainly, an Akuma was destroyed and disappeared.
The human souls used to create Akuma can be purified only by Innocence.
I wonder if that Akuma's soul was okay...
Are you worried about Akuma?
I'm sorry, Marie. I just...
No, Allen.
You should worry about yourself a little.
What? Why?
Listen now!
Most of the people here despite Akuma.
To the Order and the Central Agency,
the souls that were turned into Akuma don't really matter.
You can see Akuma's souls, and in fighting them, you try to bring them mercy and salvation.
People can't sympathize with your way of fighting, unfortunately.
It'll cause you pain someday.
Marie...
But if I stop doing that,
I'll have to... forget Mana... forget things that mean so much to me.
Thanks, Marie...
But...
You can't do that, huh?
Now I know why you and Kanda often fight.
You two are so much alike.
You're kidding, right? Don't lump me in with such a complete idi-
You're a complete idiot, too.
And yet, the darkness that you guys are caught in is so deep
that I don't know how to pull you out of it.
I really feel frustrated...
...especially since he saved me...
What did you just say?
You're wide open!
Walker!
A surprise attack?! That was dirty, Marie!
I'm sorry!
What's going on?
Allen!
Are you okay?!
What was that about all of a sudden?!
What're you doing, Goushi?
A side effect.
It got activated responding to Innocence.
Is it possible...
that this man is an Akuma?
But it is strange.
I can't see the soul that's supposed to be inside him.
Who is he?!
What do you think you're doing, Goushi?!
I'm assigned with Allen Walker.
Why are you Crows trying to harm him?!
Inspector Howard Link, huh?
Goushi!
Who are those guys?
Our apologies, Allen Walker.
We're half-Akuma who have been genetically engineered from humans.
Hence, our bodies reject Innocence.
Please pardon us.
Genetically engineered?!
Is it possible you used the Akuma's egg?
It was just a small piece of it.
Akuma's egg...
The Akuma generation plant created by the Millennium Earl...
But I thought it was destroyed by Allen and the others
when our old Headquarters was attacked by Noah.
Was it Director Lvellie's doing?
What's he thinking?!
We were the ones who sealed
the Order's negative legacy as a taboo, weren't we?!
Have you forgotten the horrific tragedy from nine years ago?!
We're out of ingredients! Hurry up!
Yes, sir!
Old man Zu!
Two orders of Set B!
Yes, sir!
Hey! Zu Mei Chang!
Yu Kanda is here!
Here, the shredded cabbage is done.
Nine years ago...
the ones who created "them" based on the artificial apostle plan pressed on us by the Central Agency...
...and the ones who made a big mistake being caught up
in the illusion of the Second Exorcist are my family, the Changs,
and your family, the Epstains!
Are you repeating the same mistake, Renny?!
When our Headquarters was attacked, we lost many members of the Order.
In order for humans to defeat Akuma, we need to pay the price.
Tokusa, Kiredori, Goushi,
Tewaku,
and Madarao...
I'm putting these five in service.
This is the order of Pope.
The half-Akuma species created by us, the North American Branch
will be the new fighting power...
...as the Third Exorcists.
Do you still see the flower?
I see...
Let's keep it a secret just between you and me.
Don't get caught by it... It's an illusion.
Those flowers are illusion.
My head... is going to split!
Hey, look over there.
Just let him be.
I bet he ate something off the street.
Help!
Oh, give me a break.
Hey, are you okay?
What's with him?!
He's got five eyes!
Wh-What's... going...
Thirty-five years, huh?
I've been absent for quite a long time.
Good morning, my brothers.
Thirty-five years ago, when you guys were killed by The Fourteenth,
your Noah memories were damaged,
and it caused a great time lag for your next reincarnation.
The second Apostle, Tryd.
The third Apostle, Joyd.
The fourth Apostle, Desiras.
The sixth Apostle, Feedra.
The seventh Apostle, Mercyma.
The ninth Apostle, Road.
The tenth and eleventh Apostles, Bondom.
The twelfth Apostle, Lustre.
The thirteenth Apostle, Mightra.
And Adam's first Apostle, the Millennium Earl.
Welcome back, everyone!
The eight Apostle, Wrathra...
So he was reincarnated, but died, huh?
To think that I, Wisely the Evil Eye, was the last to be reincarnated...
How vexing...
At any rate, this bouncy belly brings back memories.
The third Apostle Joyd...?
What's going on?
This is my first time hearing it, and yet it makes me feel nostalgic.
That's because it's the real name in your Noah memories,
Tyki Mikk.
That's why you feel nostalgic.
Can this guy read other's minds?!
Destroying Innocence to bring the "three days of darkness" to the world...
That's the Millennium Earl's mission.
We, the twelve Apostles, exist to protect him and fight alongside him.
Twelve humans awaken as the Noah in one era
because the memories of the twelve Apostles, meaning the Noah Memories, are reborn.
For seven thousand years,
we, the Noah Clan, have repeated the reincarnation process,
and fought against detestable Innocence alongside the Millennium Earl.
The Noah memories...
They are what's causing you pain.
Even thought you're accepting the Noah's mission,
your own ego is refusing to be swallowed
by the seven thousand years' wroth of memories.
Well, that is a typical human reaction.
He is a carbon copy of that man, isn't he?
Now, Wrathra is the only Apostle we're missing!
Let's exterminate Innocence and destroy the Heart!
May we, this generation, be the ones to end this damn long crusade!
A message from Headquarters!
A large number of Akuma have appeared in many parts of the world!
The actual number is unknown... and keeps growing!
I won't hold back in my attack!
Devouring Flame! Fire Stamp!
Waltz: Misty Wind!
I can't use that attack many times.
What do I do?
Third!
Devouring Device Primordial Void!
What's this dark shadow?!
We're sinking!
It's a hole that leads to hell.
Time to be eaten, you damn iron scraps!
Incredible...
He destroyed them in an instant.
The souls of the Akuma swallowed by Third...
Help...
They're disappearing...
along with the Akuma...
Oh? Were the souls of those Akuma suffering?
I envy you for being able to see their souls.
What?!
Sorry.
Whenever I see high-and-mighty apostles, I seem to get irritat-
I mean,
I feel cheerful after destroying Akuma, so...
Our power is helping to save mankind...
My own body will become sustenance for God...
Such joy shakes my very soul.
That's nice.
Long time no see, boy.
What's wrong, Lavi?!
Here they come.
They are...
Noah!
It's not like we have serious business or anything.
We're just hunting Exorcists.
Tyki!
Tokusa!
Walker?!
Where are you, Walker?!
Say something, Allen Walker!
Madarao and Tokusa aren't responding, either.
What on earth is happening?!
Are you okay?
Don't touch me!
Dammit...
To think that we ran when the Noah was right in front of us...
Hunting Exorcist, huh?
Then the appearance of these many Akuma must also be...
We should go back to the camp right away and have him treated!
You can leave him alone.
His wounds have already closed.
Amazing...
You have the same ability as Kanda.
Ability?
Oh, that's right.
That man and Alma Karma are...
My ability only closes the wounds...
I wish I had power to match the Second's...
Alma? The Second?
Madarao, please do it.
What're you doing?!
I'll absorb him.
Absorb him?
Don't tell me you're absorbing your comrade!
Tokusa can no longer use Akuma's power.
There's no point in him continuing to live.
So I'll absorb him and take over the Alma cells in his body.
Don't be ridiculous!
What the hell in this Alma whatever?!
Alma Karma...
It's the first parent body that merged with the nucleus of the Akuma's egg
and provided its cells to us.
Since we took in Alma cells,
the first-class mission of becoming parent bodies ourselves is imposed on us.
Become parent bodies?
The absorption of Akuma
leads to Alma cell growth.
When we become parent bodies, we'll be offered to God,
and new Thirds will created using those cells.
Thus, the fighting power against Akuma increases,
and it becomes the foundation of saving the world.
That is the Third Exorcists Project.
To think that they turn humans into half-Akuma...
We don't know when Innocence Accommodators appear.
That's exactly why those like us are needed.
But...
You probably don't understand.
Your kind were chosen by Innocence and became Exorcists so easily...
You guys cannot understand how badly we want to save the world.
So please don't be in our way!
My last wish is to be absorbed and become part of Madarao.
By no means do I want my life to end at the hands of the Noah!
Don't worry.
We're not the ones who'll end you guys.
Tokusa!
I'll tell you...
who will end you all.
You're Yu Kanda...
right?
Who the hell are you?
Do you know the name "Alma"?
You do, don't you?
Let me use your brain for our party.
I have faith...
When we get through this suffering...
...the world we believed in...
will surely exist, right?
Sumiwataru yoru toki o tadori
澄み渡る夜時を辿り
On a perfectly clear night, tracing each and every moment,
Matataku hikari wa inochi no hi
瞬く光は命の灯
That sparkling brightness is the light of our lives.
Moshimo futari ga kasanaru nara
もしも二人が重なるなら
If we were ever allowed to overlap one another,
Munashiku rasen o egaita
虚しく螺旋を描いた
We would form a sorrowful spiral.
Kasumu kioku ni yume o mite wa
霞む記憶に夢を見ては
Seeing a dream amid our dimming memories,
Futashika na bokura ga yureru
不確かな僕らが揺れる
Our uncertain selves waver there.
Kokoro o kogasu kimi no koe
心を焦がす君の声
As your voice burns within my heart,
Yakusoku dake ga toge o masu
約束だけが棘を増す
Our promises are covered by thorns ever more.
Utsukushiku saku hana no sugata ni

Beholding the beautiful form of that flower,
Kimi ga kowareteyuku
君が壊れてゆく
You begin to fall apart.
Boku ga kowareteyuku
僕が壊れてゆく
I begin to fall apart.
Nemuri ni yosete sono kotae
眠りによせてその答え
Let us bring that answer... to rest.
Along with Lord Millennium,
we are starting the plan to end the battle against Innocence.
We'll show you the "love" and "tragedy" that the Order hid from you.
Next time, Night 5: "Alma Karma."
Night 5
Alma Karma
