I've had it up to here with my DT!
Won't you help me lose my DT (lose my DT)
I want to return home as a real man
(Can I help?)
The treasure I've kept my whole life is too saddening to bear (saddening to bear)
I've long since hoped to give it up to you
Since I crossed worlds and met you, we've hardly been apart
I dream every night, but not always soundly
I toss and turn as my Hyperion bursts into flames
How can I cool my fevered aura?
The closer we become, and the further we clash,
the more my Alma Gear rises for battle
Won't you help me lose my DT (lose my DT)
My right hand has served me faithfully, but now we must part (Farewell!)
It is decided; we shall no longer be apart (no longer be apart)
I won't let you go until our score is settled
(Tonight's the night!)
I will fight to lose what is mine
After obtaining his new weapons, Erec attacked Kon's party.
After the shocking death of the main character, what will become of Ixion Saga DT?

Log entry by Incognito's 3rd division commander Gustave Gustaf.
Four hours and thirty-eight minutes since the end of the last mission.
Targets Alpha and Bravo are moving north after the end of the battle.
22:12.
– Day 1, 22:12 –
The targets arrive at Marquesas, population 5700.
22:48, they move to an inn.
– 22:48 –
We let money do the talking and rented a room in the building across from the inn.
The observation will commence from here.
For now, there is nothing to note.
We will continue our observation.
I proposed this action to Sir Erec myself and received his blessing.
The showdown with DT...
After the countless clashes we had, DT and Ecarlate died a little too easily.
One could simply claim that Sir Erec was just so strong that a single strike was enough to finish DT,
but something wasn't quite right.
"That's why I felt it was necessary to observe the other two for a while."
How did you know what I was thinking?
Gustave, you should try to control your habit of thinking out loud.
What was supposed to be an inner monologue was anything but.
Really?
Really.
KT, what do you think?
Am I over-thinking this?
If DT is alive, he's sure to rejoin the targets.
The plan is sound.
However,
I think there's another reason why you proposed this plan.
What?
Don't play dumb.
I'm not an idiot.
Marquesas is famous for its pretty women.
You're here for the hostess clubs!
D-Don't be silly!
Who do you think I am?!
Hostess Groupie Gustave.
No!
What I love is what comes after, and I don't like to be alone!
You're just digging a deeper hole.
Remember.
I'm here to keep an eye on you.
Do not forget your mission.
Don't underestimate me.
Did you really think I wouldn't do anything when there are girls with smooth white skin waiting for me?
Were you even listening to me?!

Day 2, 10:32.
Log entry by Incognito's 3rd division commander Gustave Gustaf.
At the present, the targets aren't doing anything noteworthy.
However, I refuse to believe the targets will sit idly forever.
It's obvious they'll do something.
But Gustave was thinking,
"Oh man, I wish the mission was over so I could caress the smooth skin of some girl's upper arm."
That's quite true.
However, KT wasn't letting him do that.
But Gustave was actually sneaking out at night.
However, touching wasn't allowed.
But it was impossible for Gustave to stop longing for smooth skin.
However, KT had decided he would even put him on a leash if need be.
But!
However!
But!
However!
Hey, can you cut it out already?
Why can't I go to a hostess club?
I'm still doing my work!
What's the problem with that?!
They're moving!
So they're finally making a move.
What do you think?
I'm sure they don't know we're watching them.
That means...
They have no reason not to meet with DT and the princess if they're still alive.
Let's follow them. Don't be seen.

Day 2, 12:04.
Currently, targets Alpha and Bravo are moving together.
Judging from their strides, they know where they're going.
We will continue shadowing them.
I'll follow the woman.
Hey!
Oh well.
Meeting at a café downtown, huh?
I guess this is the real deal.
Just as I thought, DT isn't dead after all.
Is that him?
Now, show yourself, DT!
That's just some old dude!
Damn them for misleading me.
Wait a second.
Who is that guy?
When did they contact him?
And how did they set up this meeting?
The targets never left our sight.
Wait, calm down.
They easily could have had someone else set it up.
I need to find out who he is,
and whether he's connected to DT.
Money and a note...
Even more suspicious.
Who to follow now?
Of course, that one.
Fog...
Oh no, you don't!
This is...
Anything?
Kind of.
The targets are both back.
Target Alpha met with a man.
I followed the man, but...
But?
I lost him.
Fool.
Shut yer piehole!
And you?
Shopping.
What?
Clothes, shoes, flowers, and much more.
I watched the interactions with the store clerks,
and I examined the stores,
but there was nothing suspicious.
So that was a dud.
So you screwed up.
That means...
Why the long face?
Are you talking to yourself in the mirror?
I know why.
There's an empty feeling left in your heart when a rival is gone.
When there's no more tension, your hands feel too idle.
That's a completely normal reaction for a fighter.
Nope.
I just had work shoved onto me by this paranoid pair.
No need to be ashamed, Variation.
I think you should have a little more shame.
I mean, even Sir Erec seems to almost look a little lonely.

Log entry by Incognito's 3rd division commander Gustave Gustaf.
At the present, targets Alpha and Bravo are in the same room, conversing.
We will continue the observation.
You, woman!
Take me to a hostess club!
No, why do I have to take you?
You talkin' back?!
If you really refuse, I'll stuff all your pockets full of potato starch!
Oh, shut it.
Even if you did go, you'd just come crawling home after they empty your wallet.
Don't be ridiculous!
I am a veteran with a proven record!
By my own count, I have a 78% post-club success rate.
Don't underestimate my skills!
If it's by your count, you can make up whatever success rate you want.
That's not the point!
What's important right now is that I want to go to a hostess club!
Denied.
Damn it!

No noteworthy movements by the targets.
The only change is that Alpha has begun feeding the neighborhood cats.
And Bravo is...
Oh, sweet Jesus, Bravo...
Hey!
That's enough.
Any more of that and you're just a peeping tom.
A little would be fi—
No!
But just...
Down!
Yes, sir.

Hey, can I leave this post to you?
You can't go to a hostess club.
I'm going to investigate.
At a hostess club?
No, I'm going to look for the man I lost yesterday.
Hostess club, then.

The man who met with Alpha is hereby known as Charlie.
Beginning the investigation to find out where Charlie went.
After a thorough investigation of places he has been,
I have decided to move to point N358 after getting a tip that important information about Charlie is waiting there.
The name of the new investigation target is...
I'm Carina!
While asking about her age, profession, place of residence, dreams for the future,
Cheers!
I permit the consumption of a drink.
I'm beginning the true interrogation.
Interrogation?
I'm so nervous!

Day 3, 22:28.
After a harsh interrogation and payment of the naming fee,
I was able to glean information about her measurements and whether she has a boyfriend.
You're talking to yourself again.
After getting initial results,
I decide to press on with the interrogation.
Well, then let's have another drink!

Ugh, I feel sick.
Scratch that.
At present, no change in the targets.
For an unknown reason, I do not feel 100%.
For some reason,
the right side of the back of my head throbs.
Do you honestly need to think about the reason?!
Listen up, maggot!
Today, you're going to watch them.
Got that?!
Y-Yes, sir.

It's already day four.
Any developments?
Same old.
At present, nothing is notewor—
Except now!
Bravo went outside!
I'll leave this to you!
Hey!
An evening rendezvous.
You grew impatient and finally made your move.
Be a good girl and take me to DT.
I've scoped out the place.
You can't get out from the bathroom.
The back door goes into the kitchen.
The bartender does not seem suspicious.
Now, we just need to wait for the guests to come.
Damn seductress, how much do you plan on drinking?
Another one, please.
You're going to have more?!
What's wrong with her?
Stupid, sexy, masochistic, .and she can drink like a fish.
This is bad.
I can't keep up.
This is nuts.
If I had known, I would have asked for yesterday's drinks to be extra watered down!
Another one, please.
What?
Excuse me, another one, please.
Damn this heavyweight!
I'm on day two here!
I'm gonna lose this pretty soon.
What am I going to do?
I did quite well until now.
If I go down now, one could say I died honorably in battle.
To be honest, I just want to lie down right now!
Damn it!
But if I sleep now and something fun happens, I'll be pissed.
This seat taken?
Don't ask after you sit down.
What are you doing here?
I could ask the same.
Put the gun away. I didn't come to fight.
I guess you have no more reason to fight, but...
But you have all the more reason?
Not really.
We failed.
We couldn't save our friends.
We couldn't even protect our precious leader's life.
All we could do was bite our fingers
and watch our leader's last moments.
For us, there's no reason left to fight.
Don't take it personally.
It's work for us.
Jeez, you men.
Putting etiquette aside for now, .will you tell me one more thing?
What are you doing here?
Drinking.
Isn't it obvious?
Not that. What I mean is—
There's barely anything left that we can do.
We just want to do something.
Whether you guys are watching or not,
we are going to do what we can.
That's all.
Sheesh, why do women have to talk in such a complicated manner all the time?
My ex-wife liked to do that too.
Women are not simple creatures that reveal their secrets at the slightest provocation.
You'd do well to remember that.
I'm going home.
This is your treat, right?
Huh? I guess.
Oh, and...
Since you guys piss me off,
I'll just take this one shot, all right?
See ya.
You ask after you hit me?
Are you sure?
We still haven't gotten any real results.
DT didn't appear this entire time.
If we stick around here for much longer,
who knows what Variation will say to us.
You really think we can trust that woman?
I didn't really understand what she was saying,
but it didn't seem like she was lying.
No wonder all the hostesses have you wrapped around their little finger.
Women are an order of magnitude better at lying than men.
She said the same thing...
Whether you guys are watching or not...
What's wrong?
She had noticed!
What?
I was alone.
She still said "you guys."
So she knew about the tail all along?
It's no use.
They're both gone!
They got us.
Damn.
Let's hurry, KT.
Go where?
Do you have a lead?
I don't have proof.
However, if her plan is to lose us and meet up with DT,
that old guy has something to do with it for sure.
If they're going to meet,
it'll be where there isn't a soul.
It all fits.
I know DT's over there.
This is...
Our leader.
Our friends.
Though you may have shuffled off your mortal coils,
your souls live on in our hearts.
We will keep your souls in our memories.
We shall live on as your flesh and blood.
Those you left behind will never forget you.
We swear that we will inherit that devotion
and carve it into our hearts,
so that we may continue to walk on together.
Farewell, Princess.
Kon.

Let's go, ED! Go, go, go, go!
Grab his precious balls!
Let's go, ED! Go, go, go, go!
Love and dreams aren't so important!
Give me some balls!
You can't do much when you're all respectful, right?
Come on! Hit me!
Behold an anime of shock & awe!
We're all like guys from next door, that's what makes it great!
Let's go, ED! Go, go, go, go!
Be yourself and break through their lines!
Let's go, ED! Go, go, go, go!
Being safe is boring
Let's go, ED! Go, go, go, go!
Grab his precious balls!
Let's go, ED! Go, go, go, go!
Nobody cares about your dreams and love and offspring once you're dead!
Let's go, ED!
Next Time
Thank you for watching Ixion Saga DT.
Due to the death of the main character,
this will be the last episode.
Starting from next episode,
we hope you will enjoy our new production, Ixion Saga ED.

Hokaze Kon, rest in peace.
