I'm Ulbrion Unit One.
I was tasked with an intelligence mission.
Which means I'm a spy.
I've researched all of St. Piria's Princess Ecarlate Juptris's
tastes, fetishes, preferences, likes and dislikes.
And I finally found it.
I'm Ulbrion Unit Two.
I was tasked with a destruction mission.
Based on Unit One's information, I've started my mission
to create a rift between St. Piria and Jugglaburk.
Who would have thought that
a princess of St. Piria would have such a weakness.
I thought she had a firm resolve,
but in the end she's just a little girl.
To think she destroyed the alliance over a nose hair.
The Jugglaburk territory is no longer allied with the empire
and has declared war against it.
It seems the empire has accepted their declaration of war.
It looks like everything is going according to plan, Archbishop.
Yes, but this was all only possible because we
created these man-made Hyperions, the Ulbrion.
There are three units.
I thought the mission was carried out by two units.
I'm Ulbrion Unit Three.
I was tasked with a scribe mission.
I filmed the work of Units One and Two.
Now let us sit back and watch as the two sides
crush each other.
Come.
What is it, Unit Four?
A rat has snuck in.
What are you sneaking and sniffing around here for?
A knight from the order.
You're not allowed in here.
Why don't you tell me why you're doing so sneakily?
Out of my way!
I can't believe this. Me, in this state...
Knights are a thing of the past.
From here on out, it's the age of the Ulbrion.
Ulbrion?
Let's play with him a little more.
What the—
He disappeared!
What's going on?
What are we going to do now?
I don't know.
I don't even know what's going on.
Sheesh, where are Gustave and Variation at a time like this?
This is bad.
Go away!
There's someone here!
What?
What are we going to do now?
We have no choice but to move back
to the empire's territory for now...
What? Really?!
Okay. Okay.
Got it.
Who are you always talking to?
Okay, I'll tell the others.
Say what?
Something surprising is going to happen, but you
don't have to be shocked.
What's that supposed to mean?
What is this? Is this what you meant?
This is the beginning.
I'm shocked!
Huh?
My own room?
What was I doing?
Playing a game?
Wait, I was talking to someone.
Please...
Please, lend me your power.
I remember now!
If you help me,
you can have something that I've
treasured all my life.
Yes, this is it! I'll take it!
Wait, after this I...
Where am I?
These are the remains of what was once the capital.
Who are you?
Oh, it's you!
You were the one who called me!
Yes. I've been always been watching you.
Huh, really? Wow, that's flattering. Really?
Yes.
She's even more... She's even sexier than I imagined.
Wait, she really wants me?
I asked you to come to this world
because I wanted to ask you for something.
Oh, yeah. You had a favor to ask. What was it?
Please save this world.
I don't really know how to do that.
A single man is trying to bring doom to this world
by orchestrating the final war.
Wait, wait. The scale of the story is too big.
Let's sort this out, okay?
First, from the beginning.
Did you summon me here?
Yes.
How?
Using techniques that have existed since ancient times.
Um, by the way, who are you?
A mystery.
What?
I am the mysterious woman.
Um...
If you don't want to, I will not force you.
Wh-What are you talking about?!
You're fine! No, I want it to be you!
In order to defeat him,
you'll probably have to put your life on the line.
Oh, that?
I don't really want to put my life on the line.
Would you like to return to your world?
What? I can go home?
Please stand over there.
Woot! Yay!
Wait, wait! Self!
Is it really okay to go back like this?
I've worked so hard and suffered so much, so many times,
so can I really go home empty-handed?
Keeping my DT...
Um, you'll grant me a favor, too, right?
Yes, if I am suitable.
You're fine!
No, I want it to be you!
So about that...
If I help you out, I might die, right?
I believe that you will be fine.
That's what I hope, too.
But should I die like this, I'll have huge regrets!
Should that happen, I'll pray for your soul.
No, wait, wait.
It's not about what happens after I die.
It's before D-E-A-T-H, death, happens! Before that!
DT! I can't die without losing it!
I'm sure that you'll be able to do it and fulfill my wish.
So the reward's only available after I complete it, go figure.
Well, I guess it can't be that easy.
Yes, it won't be easy.
Success or death... Or to just got home right now...
Excuse me,
the others are about to wake up.
Okay.
Pet? What, you know her?
I was following you guys because she told me to.
I was giving reports about your status
and helping you here and there.
All because she asked me to.
So you were a spy?
Don't put it like that.
I was an observer, an observer.
Observer? Please, you pretended you couldn't talk the whole time!
Where am I?
Where am I, my ass!
Where have you been this whole time?!
Me? I was at a hostess club. I was at a hostess club.
What?!
You abandoned your mission to go to a hostess club?!
I'm sorry. I just couldn't resist.
You fool! How did you even manage to become part of Incognito?
So, where are we? What happened?
We don't know, either.
What's going on?
A passage?
Erec-sama?
We have no choice but to go.
Sainglain, are you sure?
We can't stay locked up in there forever, either.
What?! It's you!
Who is that?
Alma Flora!
Not really. That's just a nickname.
A nickname?
I'm the mysterious woman.
So fishy.
But she's the one who granted me the powers of a Hyperion.
What?! You?!
DT?! Why are you here?!
Stop saying that!
I'm seriously torn because of that!
Kon! You're safe!
Wait, Erec and his men are there, too!
Guys!
Wait, wait! Listen to what we have to say first.
I've always been watching you.
What? That wasn't just me?
Who are you?
I'm the mysterious woman.
I'll tell you about Ixion now.
In the ancient past, there was a race called Ixion.
They controlled the Alma Energy freely,
and created a sophisticated civilization.
However, eventually a civil war broke out
and the civilization perished.
And now, someone who is trying to recreate that technology
to instigate a war has appeared.
A war?
That person won't get their hands dirty,
and instead is orchestrating a war between the
pro- and anti-empire factions.
I was supposed to stop that. Well, I failed.
Princess, you were screwed.
No! The princess hasn't been screwed yet!
You mean by Nabokov, right?
But the Ulga Sorority did screw her. With a nose hair.
How do you know about that?!
I found out in their headquarters.
They created a complete profile for you
and planted a nose hair on Nabokov.
What?!
What are you talking about, Variation?
Erec-sama, the ones who are plotting this war
are the higher-ups of the sorority.
The archbishop of the Ulga Sorority is the one pulling the strings.
The sorority?
I can't believe it!
We were supposed to be knights fighting for peace!
The archbishop is trying to use ancient technology in this war.
To stop him, I summoned someone from another world
and I bestowed upon another the power of the Hyperion.
You mean me...
...and DT?
I told you to stop calling me DT!
Yes, but the archbishop is more powerful than I previously imagined.
Which is why I must call upon all of you here.
Please help stop this war as Hyperions.
When you say "all of you," you mean us, right?
Or us?
I mean all of you.
I don't think I'm exactly what they meant by Hyperion.
I heard it takes an incredibly brutal regimen
to turn a normal person into a Hyperion.
No, I heard it requires an incredibly painful ritual.
You mean it hurts?
Oh, no!
How was it, Erec-sama?
Well, in my case, I was chosen based on the promise
of my qualifications and effort, so it wasn't really anything.
Your qualifications and your effort?
That's our Erec-sama.
Sounds like someone got Daddy to pull some strings.
I bet you getting chosen was random.
And because of that, we're out.
You are all already Hyperions.
You've already made it.
Since when?!
Since you were transferred here.
Wha?
I used a special power to transform you into Hyperions.
This way, anyone may use the Alma Energy.
Anyone?
Then why was I chosen?
I did take your qualifications and effort into account to some degree.
Some degree, you say?
Looks like all your
qualifications and effort got taken into account to some degree.
Some degree...
Anyone...
In order for a Hyperion to release their true power,
Alma Gear is needed.
Luckily, there is still some Alma Gear leftover in these ruins,
from the days of the civil war.
Please find a weapon that suits you.
Let's go.
Are you sure you want to do this, Princess?
The sorority screwed me!
You think I'm going to let them get away with that?!
Princess, please wait!
Please wait!
Let's go, too.
Erec-sama!
Let's go.
It's great that we can get Alma Gear for free.
What a deal.
Wait!
We haven't decided to fight the sorority and...
Anyone?
So, if we make your wish come true with this huge group...
Will you listen to my wish?
Kon, you are special.
Special?
You are not of this world.
I guess that's true.
And yet I am asking you to risk your life to save our country.
I knew it.
Success or death, huh?
That's the problem.
That's the biggest problem when you're young.
So there's Alma Gear inside this thing?
It's full of it! Simply full of it!
It's a treasure trove.
But how do we get it out?
Don't you just turn this thing?
I'll do it.
Burn, my Alma!
Wow, that's incredible!
I guess we really did become Hyperions!
So qualifications and effort mean what, exactly?
I can't do it.
Outta the way!
Alma!
He's got it.
Anyone?
Erec-sama, please!
As knights of the Ulga,
we can't really fly the banner of rebellion, however,
what exactly is our order's great cause?
As those who are proud to bring peace, isn't it possible this fight is just?
Looking at it that way,
it is the sorority who has deviated from our moral obligations,
which means that we are not traitors.
In fact, the act of doing just things is the proof of a knight's loyalty,
but no matter how you spin that loyalty...
My turn!
Go!
We're counting on you.
Go for it!
Don't stop now!
If I fight, I may die.
If I go home, my life will be safe,
but then my DT will be safe, too.
I guess it's wrong in the first place that I have to fight,
but then wishing that I had learned kendo or judo
isn't really an option, either,
since I became an indoor recluse because I couldn't do it.
So now that my big chance is finally here, I don't really know what to do.
It's no use!
Let me do it.
You're going to give it a try, Princess?
In the name of the moon!
Taste my revenge!
Good luck, Princess!
If anyone can do it, it's you!
They're giving it all they've got, too.
Crap!
Princess, please stop!
Let me give it one more try.
No, it's going to break!
Hey!
Stop!
One Hyperion, two Hyperions...
Stop it, Princess!
Leave this to me!
I knew it!
You need to put money in there!
It won't turn otherwise, it's the same here as in my world.
Oh.
I see, money.
They say money makes the world go round!
Good one, Kon!
Here you go, Princess.
Thanks.
Hey, how much you got on you?
Why would I have any?
Hang on.
What do you think, Princess?
I don't like it.
Next!
Next.
Man, that's a duplicate.
Next.
We've still got plenty of money.
Isn't money just wonderful?
Wow, that's so lame.
I don't like it.
Throw it away.
Next.
Erec-sama, do you have any money on you?
All right!
This is great!
Hey, what about this stuff?
Finders keepers!
Hey!
I want this one!
I'll take this one!
I will now return you all to the place where you came from.
Actually, I'd prefer not to go there.
Definitely, please do send me back there!
The hostess club again?!
That reminds me.
Erec-sama!
There's something I'd like to report to you.
The sorority has... Hyperion...
I beseech thee.
Please put a stop to this war.
She really did return us to where we were.
We came back.
Came back...
But where is the place we must return to?
I swore an oath of fealty to the sorority
because I had seen the truth in their teachings.
I can still remember that immense inner joy
I felt when I made that oath, and yet...
Can you please hurry up and decide what you want to do?
Then you are going to fight for this world?
I've gotten pretty entangled in this world.
I couldn't just ditch everyone now.
And if I left now, I would always harbor this regret.
Please! Make me a man!
I'll make you a man.
I know it's your first time, but you'll be fine.
Don't worry, I'll show you the ropes.
Stop!
Anyone who's survived a battlefield is a man.
Oh, that's what you mean?
You see, I was talking about...
What?
Um, well...
Then I'm counting on you all.
If you ever need my help, you can tell Pet.
Let's go.
Kon, I pray that we will meet again.
Me, too!
I pray that I'll meet you again, that you'll make me into a man,
and that I'll get home safe and sound.
Oh, yeah.
How do I get to Olvidia?
Going there is no longer possible.
Huh?
What do you mean?
It is currently sealed.
You can't get inside.
What is that supposed to mean?
I went through all sorts of trouble to get to Olvidia!
Please just forget about it.
What kind of story element is that?!
What about our troubles?!
Goodbye.
What was the point of coming to Jugglaburk?!
We're back to where we came from?
I guess we have no choice.
Let's go fulfill her wish
in order to fulfill mine!
Are you sure we can trust that woman?
She helped us!
She calls herself the mysterious woman.
I guess that is sort of suspicious.
What the hell, guys? Come on, believe in her!
She's a good person.
But she screwed you.
I remain unviolated.
She is my first!
So did she violate you?
She didn't!
What, you still haven't...?
Next Time
Hey, can I ask you a question?
Yes?
Why didn't you just tell me
to save the world from the very beginning?
I watched over you until you reached the point where
you believed yourself capable of doing it.
That's so fishy!
Variation is being chased by the Ulga Sorority
when he's saved by someone who says that he was sent by Erec.
During that escape, he recalls
the day when Incognito was founded.
