Mr. God Hunter, you still have something to do.
You must kill another God Hunter now.
You guys will never order me around.
You shouldn't be so selfish.
I have no intention of being used by you.
Memory of the Black Feathers
The town almost gets frozen by a cold glance
Stay tied down with a little common sense
I want to keep on walking
Looking for a route different from anybody else's
Intensely, strongly, forever
I wish to live proudly
A red flower, a red flower
Keep it in my heart
I wish to send it to you, but I can't
I stare at the moonlit night
I don't wish to wither as a bud does
I'd rather let my own flower bloom and scatter
I'm going to change into a flower
Did you come here to kill me?
What do you want?
I need to protect my sister, Elisiss.
I never forgive anyone who tries to hurt her, no matter who it is.
Sister? I see...
You don't have enough power left to kill the God Hunter.
I've known who you were since the first time I saw you,
since I met you at the spring.
Is that the so-called God Hunter's instinct?
But do you know what the real God Hunter is?
What?
I know it. I don't need to be told.
I want to hear your story.
My mother died right after I was born.
My father died of a disease, also when I was little.
When he was dying, he said, "You're the one to kill the gods."
"You're the God Hunter."
Even though I was told such a thing, I couldn't believe it.
I thought the God Hunter existed only in myths.
But one thing happened...
Your breakfast is ready.
I'll be there in a minute.
Be careful! I saw a scorpion over there yesterday.
Her name was Denilmo. She was a mysterious woman.
I happened to meet her
when I went to a market in the town to sell swords,
and she followed me to my house.
Before I noticed, she had settled there.
What's wrong? This fish is good. Why don't you have some?
You eat the fish.
You don't eat much. You won't have energy if you don't eat.
Later on, it became a typical life.
That morning I sharpened the sword
and had breakfast she prepared as usual.
You don't go to the market lately.
You used to go to sell swords.
I haven't made swords to sell for a while.
Is that right? What about the sword you've been sharpening lately?
I will use it for myself.
Are you going hunting?
Hunting?
Yes, hunting. Hunting?
Yes, hunting.
I'm sorry.
Why do you apologize? I'm sorry.
Why do you apologize?
Why? Because...
I bought the cup for her at the market. It was how we started.
She cherished it like a treasure.
I never asked what she was. It didn't matter to me
as long as she liked the life there.
Is the sword finished?
Not yet, I need to sharpen it more.
When I step out half right, it should slide on the air delicately.
All of the sudden, I want to make a sword for myself.
But I don't know why. There's no purpose.
Let's have tea at the usual place.
I wonder what's beyond the field?
No idea.
I want to go there, someday. No idea.
I want to go there, someday.
Let's go together then, Spike!
It will be fun.
Yes, that may be a good idea.
Really?! Yes, that may be a good idea.
Really?!
Really, I promise, but we'll do it after this sword is finished.
Okay, I'll wait.
I'll get it.
God... She was a god.
And I was a God Hunter.
I'm sorry. You bought it for me.
Why?
Why didn't you tell me?
We need to go to the market and get a new one.
Why? We need to go to the market and get a new one.
Why?
Why did you come before me?
To kill me?
Do I need a reason? To kill me?
Do I need a reason?
Do I need a reason to meet someone I love?
I wanted to meet you. That was all. I didn't have a reason.
What do you mean?
I've been watching you since you were born, from above.
A god watches the God Hunter. It is my destiny.
I've followed my destiny.
But seeing you every day, I fell in love with you.
I really, really wanted to meet you. Everybody tried to stop me.
They said, "lf you do such a thing, you'll be killed." I knew that.
But I wanted to meet you.
Did you come to see me even though you knew I might kill you?
Yes, all I wanted was to meet you even if I was killed soon after.
But you bought the cup for me.
I was so happy. I knew the day would eventually come.
But I wanted to live with you until that day, so...
That's why I couldn't tell you.
You were too gentle.
Denilmo...
I can't go against my destiny.
I realized for the first time why I wanted my own sword.
I was getting ready to kill Denilmo without noticing.
That's why I wanted a sword, to kill the god.
The instinct of the God Hunter in me was about to awaken,
but I didn't want to believe it.
It was a strange feeling.
It was as if a switch or something was flipped on deep inside my body.
Goodbye, Spike.
That was the time
I heard my father's voice, the story he told me when he was dying.
There was a scorpion, which tried to go across a big river.
The scorpion asked a frog nearby,
"Please carry me on your back to the other side of the river."
The frog said, "No, you will sting my back for sure."
The scorpion answered, "Don't worry, if I sting you, I'll drown."
"l won't do such a stupid thing."
The frog no longer worried after he heard the scorpion,
and started across the river with the scorpion on his back.
But when they reached the halfway point,
the scorpion stung the frog's back.
The surprised frog cried to the scorpion,
"What did you do? If I die, you'll drown!"
While they were falling to the bottom of the river together,
the scorpion said, "l knew that."
"But I couldn't resist. It's a scorpion's natural instinct."
Where are you going?
I'm off on a journey.
There might be a scorpion which doesn't sting a frog. I'm off on a journey.
There might be a scorpion which doesn't sting a frog.
SPlKE!
Don't follow me! SPlKE!
Don't follow me!
A scorpion's poisonous stinger attacks its enemies with a natural instinct.
The scorpion was the God Hunter,
and the frog that carried it was a god.
But I couldn't sting the frog's back.
I told you not to come!
You promised me.
To go beyond the field together.
I'll follow you wherever you go! I'll stay with you forever.
Will you come with me?
I couldn't shake her off of me.
I decided to live with her.
But...
It was just little things at first.
I couldn't get over the God Hunter's instinct.
Her blood changed my sword into the God Hunter's sword.
Since that day,
I've wandered everywhere, and improved my skill as a God Hunter.
I need to be the real God Hunter for her sake too.
What's wrong? You can kill me at this moment.
You used a dirty trick.
And that was?
If I kill you, Denilmo will be sad. I can't do such a thing. And that was?
If I kill you, Denilmo will be sad. I can't do such a thing.
You're unexpectedly merciful.
But next time you do anything dangerous to Elisiss, then...
I will... I will be a real God Hunter for sure.
If you reach your hands to the shiny sky
You'll be stronger tomorrow
The rainbow after the rain, and the sky with shooting stars
Like hit songs
They disappear at high speed
A little mistake engraved in my heart
I'm sure it will shine in glistening waves someday
Being able to forgive each other connects us
The never-ending horizon
I'll crawl and whisk you away
I want to keep protecting you, even if I'm washed away by the waves
Even if I get hurt, as long as you're with me
Because I'll become gentle tomorrow
Because I can be strong
NEXT EDEN'S BOWY
I killed Denilmo. It was little things to start with.
Hey, pass me the newspaper.
It's over there. Why don't you get it yourself? Hey, pass me the newspaper.
It's over there. Why don't you get it yourself?
Hey, don't you think this soup is too salty?
You've been complaining a lot.
Honey, who is this woman named Parella?
I don't know. She must be a guest character
for next week's episode, I guess.
What's that look for?!
PARELLA
