Over here!
Careful!
All right, over here!
Good, keep it steady.
All right!
That's it!
Report! We have successfully shipped the scythe.
Well done.
Even so, for Drwc to get involved in something so frightening...
I did not expect something like that.
Lord Gaius, do you have any updates on the Demon Lord that was awoken by Drwc and the savages of Erin?
Though they escaped to Albion, we'll soon be able to apprehend them.
With that, I would like to ask for reinforcements.
Understood. We'll give it some thought.
Please do it with the utmost urgency!
Well, even if you rush us...
With your skills Lord Gaius, things shouldn't be a problem.
I've already decided that this is a necessity.
I wish for you to come to a decision as soon as possible.
Bunch of dreaming old farts...
To him, I guess he sees us as if we're relaxing in the sun all day.
He has gone and became a little impertinent.
Well, that's not a bad thing.
Delator!
Head straight to Albion and search for the Demon Lord.
As you wish, sire.
It's Rubrum.
Seems like the Public Investigation Security Unit is meeting with the Senate.
Hey, I wonder if they found anything new.
Lord Gaius, seems you have returned from Erin.
Yeah. For crying out loud...
After I've recovered the scythes, I've been reassigned to other excess jobs by the old farts.
Gaius-sama...
Oh, I mustn't gossip behind the senate.
May your blades crush the enemy, and your crimson armor be stained in red.
I believe you've misunderstood.
We of the Rubrum do use red as our regiment's color, but...
It symbolizes the flames of order, not some dirty color tainted from blood.
What I'm proud of is the turbulent flames of red from when we burn down the foolish enemies of the Empire.
And then, it'll turn into the pure harmony of white.
It's the teachings of the Holy Empire.
Now that I think of it, the savages that rebelled in Erin,
were they called Gael?
Seems like you've been having much trouble with them lately, but...
For those who do not cooperate in favour of the Empire, it's better that they be annihilated.
I happen to be heading to Albion, wouldn't it be fun if I clear them up for you?
Such confidence you have.
Well, if you're looking for them, investigate the west coast.
Thanks for the tip.
Rubrum
Everyone!
It's break time!
Everyone! Let's take a break!
The Imperial Army the lookout reported...
should be roughly here?
Yes.
We need to strengthen our defenses in the forest.
They will attack again.
We're making a change in course.
To the west.
Yes, my lady.
Change course! To the West!
To the Gael tribe that dares to defy us,
I pronounce to you holy judgment.
Did I wake you?
I'm sorry, I fell asleep.
Let her sleep.
However, everyone should be heading back soon.
If we sleep now-
Just rest a little.
She's sure sleeping soundly.
Yes, she's probably worn out from reading the book to the children.
What book is this?
A picture book.
It tells about a story of the ancient hero of the elves in the past.
The adventures of the Black King.
Ermin drew all that.
It looks awful.
Ermin would be hurt if she heard that.
She wanted to tell the truth, she said.
So she drew with all her might before Arawn-sama returned.
His Majesty's sword is Etlym.
It was a very, very red sword.
Pwyll-sama's sword is Dymwyn.
It was a very, very black sword.
That sword was given to him by His Majesty.
Pwyll-sama and His Majesty fought together, they were very strong.
The sword of Dymwyn no longer exists.
Only my Etlym remained...
Pwyll-sama and His Majesty held their swords together and advanced forth.
Bam! Bam! They defeated the bad guys.
Bam! Bam! They beat them.
Bam! Bam! They-
Bam! Bam! They beat them.
Bam! Bam! They beat them!
This is...
So that the king's power will be known.
Definitely.
Tell her that she's only wasting paper.
She's been in really high spirits ever since you returned.
She must've been really happy,
to have met a man in the legends.
I should have slept for a little while longer.
After all, you elves were able to finally live peacefully.
I am happy too.
I, too, have grown up listening to stories of Arawn-sama.
Ermin and I, we're very happy.
They're here.
Arawn!
It's the enemy!
The barrier was still strong when Gaius came to the island.
Though they did not see the castle, it might be a different story this time.
Since the barrier has depleted, it's just a matter of time before they find the castle.
Indeed.
How many enemy ships are there?
Just one.
Just one? They plan to attack Avalon with just one ship?
I don't know, but they had a red flag.
A red flag, you say?
You know something?
That might be the Rubrum army.
Rubrum?
The Public Investigation Security Unit of the Imperial Senate.
Be it gathering information, or all kinds of investigation.
It's a special unit which suppresses all disorder within the Empire.
Are those guys... strong?
They're not to be underestimated.
However, even if we don't act, it's only a matter of time before they find us.
What do you think?
Before they attack us,
and after they land at the shore...
Right here! We'll wait for them here.
Morgan, from the distance between them and the island.
How long before they arrive?
Sometime just after evening, I guess...
We have the advantage after dark.
We stay in the forest and strike together.
Such a beautiful color.
The sky which stains everything red... The end of a day.
The flames of judgment that fumes the world, must certainly be such a color.
They're different.
I am Arthur, the First Knight of Gael!
Beside me is our chief, Arawn!
Arthur and the Demon Lord, Arawn?
How boring.
I'm interested in nothing but adhering to the laws of the Empire!
You'll help us accomplish our mission.
How about you reveal your names!
My name is Lidia.
I am the commander of the Public Investigation Security Unit of the Imperial Senate, Rubrum.
I have come to restore the order that you savages have disrupted.
Prepare yourselves!
Don't underestimate us.
I will send those words back to you!
Wait, Arthur!
Don't leave Arthur alone!
Advance!
This is bad.
They are only dogs of the Empire!
Just crush them all!
Unsheathe!
Annihilate them in the name of the Holy Empire!
These people... They are strong.
It's done!
Good work!
What's so good about those red armors?
Exactly.
Don't tell me, no one got hit?
Damn it!
If I'm serious too-
Rathty!
We're retreating!
They're different from the other enemies we've met.
They are... strong.
Tempesta!
Stay with me!
Arawn...
Ogam!
Arthur.
Let's retreat.
Should we chase after them?
Don't be rash.
That's enough for today.
Gather the troops.
Yes, my lady.
Withdraw!
Riannon, we need your help here too!
Yes!
Riannon!
I'm all right.
You've used too much healing magic.
I...
Don't overexert yourself.
But, everyone is...
It's my fault.
Nii-sama...
After all the victories we won...
I started underestimating the enemy.
I knew they should not be look down upon...
If I did not rush ahead...
If I actually... gave it some thought...
I could protect everyone!
Because of my mistakes, everyone was injured.
I have defiled the name of the First Knight!
I... I am the cause of the tragedy!
I... have failed as the First Knight.
All you've been saying is "I," "I," it's annoying!
Are you "I" from the "I" tribe?
Arawn-sama?!
What's the use of regretting the past?!
Are you going to cry every time you lose a fight?
What are you doing to do next?
Next?
That's right!
If we're hit, we hit back!
If we're crushed, then we'll crush them back!
Don't give up, and don't look down!
If you do, you'll recognize your defeat at the moment!
With the pride of your one and only tribe,
will you continue crying over such trivial matters?
Of course not!
If you lose your glory, all you need to do is just win it back.
Tempesta...
Seisyll...
Edith... Radu...
We have no time to be feeling depressed.
The enemy is strong, we have to give it our all!
Yeah. However, even if we attack them straight away, they already know our strength.
They'll be more cautious.
E-Excuse me...
I have a good idea about that.
The Rubrum army is in Albion?
Yeah.
They seemed to have landed tonight.
Why are they here?
Don't know, the higher ups decide these things...
It has nothing to do with a weaker army like us.
All right, I'll leave it up to you next.
They forgot to put out the fire?
What's with this smell?
This is...?!
