#06 Velvet Crowe
Oscar...
It's you, Seres.
Imagine, a praetor exorcist of your caliber being dispatched to this island.
It just means Master Artorius considers this a grave matter.
However...
I never expected a malak like you to betray Master Artorius.
I'm quite shocked.
So you're the glotoun.
I see.
I'm taking your ship and I'm bringing Artorius down.
Your words deserve certain death.
My exorcist sword that Master Artorius bestowed upon me...
Can you counter it?
You're a glotoun, but still a woman.
So let me pay my respects...
I'll remember that you're an insolent daemon.
I am Oscar Dragonia, a praetor exorcist
from the Abbey in the sacred kingdom of Midgand.
As ordered by Master Artorius, I will subdue you.
You are a beast indeed.
However, as long as I'm here, there's no way you can win.
Your ferocity almost made me forget why I"m here.
I didn't come all this way to kill you.
You will return to the prison.
Your purpose is to continue devouring daemons...
Glotoun.
I've survived...
for the sole purpose of killing that man.
Devouring daemons day in and day out...
For whatever reason there is.
If you resent that, you are wrong.
For that is your duty.
The world has deemed it so.
The same way it deemed my young brother would be sacrificed?!
Yes.
Every person has a role in life.
Just as he...
Master Artorius was chosen by the world.
A world that took someone's life in exchange...
is unforgivable.
Whatever happens to this world...
A world that was built by sacrificing my brother...
I will never...
forgive!
I guess you won't return to prison willingly.
What is that?
A dragon...
It's the first time I've seen one too.
That's...?
But what's a dragon doing here?
The glotoun?
It's coming! Shoot it!
Damn that daemon!
I can't believe that's a daemon!
Whether you believe it or not, it's reality!
That's what the Malevolence of man will turn into!
That is why Master Artorius created this world.
Such logic...
Here it comes!
You monster!
After seeing this, do you still believe Master Artorius is wrong, Seres?!
I have no intention of living under someone else's ideals.
I...
will follow my own path.
Don't make me laugh.
How can you, of all people, say such a thing?!
The remaining ship...
Who is it...
that roused me from my pleasant nap?
What?
Not even an apology?
You people...
You interrupt my restful sleep...
and I thought...
I went from paradise to hell!
And it was a prison hell!
Then I thought I escaped prison... and this time we're sinking?!
Can you understand my misery?
Hear me!
I have traveled the world and more!
Dragons are a trifle to me... the great sorceress!
H-Hey, where are you going?!
I'm going to steal the ship and escape while I can.
If the ship gets damaged, I won't be able to get off the island
That will be a problem.
Oh, malak!
The barrier...
Damn it!
I'll get you!
I won't let anything stop me in a place like this.
Not until I bring that bastard down.
Velvet Crowe.
There's only one way to get out of this predicament and get Artorius.
I'm going to gamble my life on you!
What?
You're using your Arte?!
What a problem.
I thought about it, but I don't know how to move a ship.
So, I can't let you devour it.
I''m Rokurou, and I need a ship too.
So, let me assist!
Oh, Rokurou! I'm counting on you!
Hear me!
I am the great sorceress!
Mazhigigika Miludin do Din Nolurun Dou...
In short, it's Magilou! Remember that name!
Why?
It is all to bring down Artorius.
You can...
Please devour me.
What are you saying?!
I am bound by a covenant by which I must offer my life.
Devour me and acquire strength...
Strength to move forward.
Why would you go so far?
Like you, it is in my heart...
a fire that I cannot extinguish no matter how hard I try.
Laphi's comb?
Hurry...before my life runs out.
I won't thank you or apologize.
There is no need.
It is my wish too...
This is...not good.
That Arte... No way!
You devoured...Seres?!
Don't hold it against me.
But I can't let a monster like you go out into the world!
It's Velvet.
That's my name. Give Artorius this message.
I am Velvet Crowe!
Daemons, malaks, exorcists... I will devour them all!
I am your worst...
Glotoun!
The wind is picking up.
You two! Where shall we go?
Anywhere is fine with me!
I go where the wind takes me!
Do you know, Laphi?
Why do birds fly across the skies?
They have to fly in order to find food.
And to escape from their enemies.
That's true.
But you know what I think?
Birds with wings...
Brother...?
What are you doing..?
This is the true way of things.
And I, the exorcist Artorius Collbrande, shall stop the pain.
A-Artorius!
Turn the rudder towards Midgand.
The royal capital...
Loegres is my destination.
Who knows what lies ahead? But that's the thrill of life.
Scenes from the next episode
What's wrong?
We're free, so why the long face?
That dragon was a powerful foe.
Yeah, that was scary.
Such a destructive force...
Let's be optimistic! We're about to go out into the world!
You're right!
Next week is "To Each His Own Thoughts"
Oh, that's a fitting title.
I'll say! Velvet has her own thoughts, and I have mine.
Me too! So we're starting an adventure, each with our own goals!
- Damn, I'm excited! - I can't wait for what's ahead!
Unfortunately though, there aren't any scenes for us.
Are you serious?! Why not?
Then who's on next week?!
I dunno.
But whoever appears will no doubt have their own goals and battles.
