Gawain, why are you rejecting Lucca?
Tell me how you feel!
Ash! Above you!
Ash!
sekai no domannaka de kimi to deatte
Meeting you smack in the middle of the world
kokyuu mo dekinai kurai ni natte
Leaves me breathless
chiisaku tokuntokun to hajimaru
The “something" between you and me
kimi to boku no nanika
Starts with small heartbeats
saa mou ikkai sora wo oshiete
Now teach me about the sky one more time
Seikoku no Dragonar
tori dake ga shiru habataku hane no omosa
Only birds know how heavy their flapping wings are
minna wa nani mo shirazu ni akogareteru
Everyone longs for wings without knowing it
kimi wa chotto setsunai kao de waratta
You smiled with a slightly sorrowful look
boku ni wa ne nani mo nai
I... I have nothing
demo kimi no namida ga hette
But if it makes you shed less tears
honki no kao de warau nara
And smile like you mean it
hero datte donnan datte
Then be it a hero or anything else
narikitte yaru kara sa
I'll become whatever you ask of me
zettai zettai zettai zettai hanasanai
I'll never, never, never, never let go
shindemo kimi dake no naito de iru
Even if I die, I'll be your knight
demo honki de naite kimi wa okotta
But you cried for real and got angry
tsumetaku nante sasenai
You said, “Don't be so cold to me"
to boku wa namida wo fuku
I wipe your tears
seiken nante nakutatte ii
I don't need a sacred blade
yuusha ja nakutatte kamawanai
I don't care if I'm not a hero
kimi hitori wo mamorikireru naraba
As long as I can protect you all the way
Moonlit Roar
I'm sorry.
I failed.
No worries. I'm just glad you're not hurt.
Still, his opposition is so fierce.
It's absolutely pointless to try talking to him.
If we only knew why Gawain was rejecting Lucca...
The upcoming training camp would've been a good chance
for the two of them to reconnect. But now...
At this rate, Lucca may not even attend.
Rebecca?
May I have permission to enter Meabh House?
I'd like to speak with Lucca one more time.
What?! What have you got up your sleeve?
All right. You may go.
Huh?
But take Eco with you.
It's unseemly for a man to be alone in the women's dorm.
Thank you so much!
Now wait just a minute!
I don't recall agreeing to come along!
Gawain...
It's Ash Blake from the Student Council.
May I come in?
Huh?
Please, have some tea.
I wasn't able to get Gawain to tell me how he felt.
I'm sorry.
Ah.
U-Um, you're attending the camp, right?
They say the nearby Nog Woods has been a kind of dragon health resort for eons.
If you go there, I bet Gawain will get better in no time.
And they say a change of scenery can do a lot of good too.
I'd like you to face Gawain one more time.
Pal and breeder... It's like...
It's something irreplaceable.
It's like your destiny.
And that's why...
Argh! Get off the fence already!
E-Eco?!
You stupid, nitwitted humans
and all your pointless worrying!
Hey! Cut that out!
How dare my pet dog speak to me in such a tone!
I'll crush you!
I'll crush you, and you'll take it and like it!
What are you raving about?! This is going way off track!
I'll go.
Huh?
I'll go to the training camp.
Master Milgauss!
It's good to see you again.
When did you return?
Just recently.
I see you've infiltrated the Academy.
Yes, to investigate Ash Blake and his Pal Eco.
I'll be accompanying them to their training camp as part of the kitchen staff.
Training camp?
Ah, yes, the Willingham Mausoleum on the shores of Lake Allonnes.
Yes?
The ashes of dragons who died young are buried there.
Though young, they're not lacking as material for experiments.
We'll meet up there.
Stay close on their heels until then.
Yes, sir.
So you have been born among us, descendant of Avalon.
Eco, huh?
That's quite an ironic name your master has given you.
Still...
No matter what name you've been given, it's far better than being killed.
Don't you agree...
Julius?
Now we're setting off for camp at Lake Allonnes!
And here we go!
I heard Gawain has gone ahead.
Don't worry.
He's a smart one. I'm sure he'll go straight to the resort.
Uh-huh.
Don't even think about riding my Arianrhod.
Yeah, yeah. Look, I'm not even touching your dragon, okay?
Hey, not so tight!
S-Sorry!
Off you go!
Lancelot, we're gonna get to Lake Allonnes first!
Hey! Don't boss him around!
And Lancelot, don't listen to her!
He's a good dragon. He respects me!
Isn't that right, Lancelot?
Between you and Ash, I hardly know what's going on anymore.
Wh-What are you doing, Eco?
Wow! They're so big and soft!
Mmm, nice and bouncy!
H-Hey, now, cut that out!
That Ash... I always see him staring at your chest, and Rebecca's too!
Even though he doesn't seem to care about mine at all.
It ticks me off!
A-Ash looks at my...
There must be some male-bewitching magic involved.
It's high time I got to the bottom of this!
No, just stop that!
Th-That's enough, Eco!
Now then.
Camp is about to begin.
Your experiences over these next few days will have a huge impact on your futures.
All of the Sacred Dragonars of Lautreamont
completed their training here with flying colors.
If you wish to be among their ranks,
I want to see your fighting spirit as you aim for the top.
Everyone's so serious.
You should rest today to prepare for tomorrow's training.
That is, you should.
However, since we're here, I suppose I could permit a little splashing around.
Take that!
Huh? Where are you going, Professor?
It's a secret.
Jessica?!
Come now, Sir Ash, let's go!
G-Go? Where to?
On our honeymoon, of course!
Hey, now, Cosette.
You don't really mean for me to...
But of course.
It's certain you'll have all eyes on you.
Well, I don't actually want...
It's certain, miss.
No, it's just that...
If you continue to be unreasonable,
I'm afraid I will have to change you into it by force.
W-Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
This must be heaven!
I get to see the Student Council prez in her swimsuit?
Now I can die happy!
Look! Here comes the princess!
D-Don't you think this suit is just a bit too skimpy?
I can't relax with the breeze whipping my flesh like this.
Not to worry.
I'm sure Master Ash will be very pleased.
Wh-What? Ash? Why would you bring him up?
Please, stop!
This isn't half of what my Pal Rhiannon is capable of!
Lancelot... and Eco?!
I'm borrowing your Pal.
W-Wait. Why?
I'm gonna stop that Jessica in her tracks.
After all, I'm Ash's master, not her.
Th-That's not what I meant!
Well, come on.
Are you with me or what?
I'm coming too!
That a girl!
Hey! Wait!
Jessica!
Help me!
Seikoku no Dragonar
Oh, my aching body.
Too much horsing around today.
Lucca?
Whoa, look at that mud.
This must be the way.
Gawain...
Hey, won't you talk to me?
I was so happy when you became a Maestro.
I wanted us to be together forever and ever.
So please,
let's go back to the way we...
Why?
Why? Why won't you say anything?
What are you doing here?
You know, I'm a little ticked off.
We keep trying to talk to you,
but you just brush us off.
Isn't that right, Gawain?
Stop. You can't...
So that means...
I'm going to have to force those feelings out of you!
Without my Arch, I can't afford to take even a single hit.
Over here, Gawain!
No, stop it!
All right! And now...
S-Some kind of reflection magic? For defense?
Is he mistaking my ability for an attack?
No!
If I leave him like that, he'll die.
Punishment for getting in Master Milgauss's way.
Wh-What should I do?
Hands off!
His life's in danger.
I'll handle this. You go get help!
And you are...
Just hurry! Go!
Uh, okay!
Now we're even.
Wh-Where am I?
Hello, sleepyhead.
N-Navi?!
This is the Highdragon Workshop,
a special place that only the spirit may enter.
I summoned you here to tell you how he feels.
What? Who is this?
Gawain.
This thing?!
He may be a Maestro, but he's still emotionally immature.
Hence this form.
He's apologizing to you.
He says his back belongs only to his master, Lucca, so he got serious.
I see.
That's not all.
Three months ago,
Lucca Sarlinen fell off Gawain while riding him.
She did? Three months ago?
Have you heard of the Dragon Dance?
No.
It's a secret Ecbladian art passed down through generations.
Mastery requires natural talent and unflagging effort.
While she was practicing that, there was an accident.
She's had an unconscious fear of riding her dragon ever since.
In that state, it could be deadly for her to ride,
and so Gawain has been rejecting her,
even if it means breaking their bond
and cutting himself off from the astral flow.
Gawain...
You'd go so far as to put your own life on the line to protect Lucca?
But Gawain has only five days left to live.
Huh?
Wh-What's this?
It seems the time has come.
Good luck.
I'm sure you can restore their bond.
And I look forward to seeing how you turn out,
knight of Avalon.
I hope you can ride me soon.
Is this... the infirmary?
Fafnirite?
Oh, right... from the healing magic.
Wh-Why are you...
Your temperature was dropping, so I thought I'd warm you up.
U-Um, thanks.
Oh hey, Lucca, I talked to Gawain.
Huh?
I don't know if you'll believe me, but...
All to protect me?
Yeah. He was thinking about you this whole time.
And now, because of what I've done...
Get a hold of yourself!
Gawain's not long for this world.
He has five days left at most.
This is... the sixth day of camp.
Already?!
You've got to get to Gawain right away.
You have to think about him now and only him.
Just like he was thinking about you.
O-Okay.
Could this be...
a hidden dragonkind chamber? How marvelous!
The fruit of their history and culture.
It can't be.
The Old Covenant?
I thought this was banned ages ago.
"Two great bloodlines broke off from the wise dragon king Imbolc,
the sacred empire of Avalon and the dark kingdom of Nehalennia."
"These two houses fought one another unceasingly."
All that really happened in the Zono Toen era.
You're those Imperial-
Stop. Your power is no match for mine.
It's always been that way, hasn't it...
Ann?
Th-That nickname!
Prince... Julius?
What now?
I don't care. Kill her.
Master Milgauss?!
Damn you.
You think you can stand in my way?
Leave her. Instead...
I will unleash the Necromancia.
Y-Yes, sir!
Ash!
Ow! Eco?
You idiot! I thought you were a goner!
Don't go wandering off where your master can't see you!
Ow! Ow! That hurts! I can't breathe! Ouch!
Let her have her way.
She's been worried sick for five days.
Too worried to sleep, in fact.
Has she?
I'm sorry, Eco.
Thank goodness you've come back around.
L-Lucca? What is it?
Gawain...
Gawain... He's...
Can you feel the intensity?

Next Time
Cosette Shelley here.
Raise your hand if the word "maid" makes you think naughty thoughts.
What brought this on?
Come now, Master Ash. Raise your hand.
Don't make me a-
Oh, you're such a perv!
This is just like it was with Lucca.
Next Episode
Dragon Dance
But I love you.
Oh, is that so? Wait, what?
