How much further?
Another 700 meters. Right beyond the wall partition!
Huh?
Hold on tight!
We're going to smash our way through!
Main server link opened.
Forcing system connection!
Looks like we were able to make it in.
B-But...
What is this?
This is the world that King reigns over.
King continues to live by absorbing human souls and consuming them.
I will take care of him.
I'll head to the storage unit with her.
Sophie.
Huh?
Here they come!
The immaturity in your attacks has disappeared.
However, it is still not enough!
This is a date course I planned just for you!
I won't let you go to Sword.
Be careful!
This time, your bodies are logged into the system along with your data.
Our bodies?
Yes, to fully allow you to use your powers as a Makai Knight.
In exchange...
I can't forcibly return you to the real world like I did last time.
Take this chance and go!
Lizzy. Take care of Sophie.
Leave it to me, Brother.
Hey. Um. Are you really Sword's...?
Yes, I'm his little sister.
Though, a lot of things happened and now I'm like this.
Sophie, please free everyone's souls.
You're the only one who can deactivate the ELDO NET system.
It's all right.
I'll give you the support you need.
Yeah.
Look, that's the access terminal that connects to the main storage unit
within the system.
Your training in close-combat shooting is lacking!
The inability to cut away the past, that is your limit.
I will not cut anything away.
Even so, I will surpass you, Dark Knight!
We're going to access the system now.
But, what should I do?
Only you and the developer, Martin Hennes, have administrator access.
We have to access the main terminal and find the deactivation password.
What?
This is...!
Here, humans are mere sustenance,
fated to sacrifice their lives to me for all eternity.
In the void within me, everything has become one.
This is true and complete peace.
Within the void, everything will lose its light.
Wh-What happened?
It's King's security program.
He's finally shown himself.
So it's better not to do anything.
Hey there, ladies. I'm here to play with you two.
Such a dull blade cannot cut me.
I can't lose, no matter what... To a fallen alchemist like you!
You never change.
All of you.
No matter the era, you reject annihilation and struggle.
No matter how many times I crush you, you pop up like pestilent insects.
Lizzy.
Sophie?!
You can't! You'll disappear if you keep interacting with it!
Why don't you all give up already?
The Golden Knight you depend on so much has already been murdered.
Sophie!
Sword won't lose. Sword definitely won't lose!
Sword is the strongest of all Makai Knights!
There is no longer anyone who can lay a hand on this world.
All obstacles have disappeared, bringing eternal peace.
You're so freaking noisy. Your monologue is too long.
Huh?
Why?!
It's obvious.
Because that's what it means to "live."
Everyone has them. Sad and painful things.
They don't lose to the pain that drops them to their knees and keep living.
Even at this very moment.
Even if it's painful.
Humans keep smiling because it's so painful.
They believe in the hope of tomorrow.
We fight to protect that future.
That's why...
We stand up as many times as it takes.
As many times as it takes...
We swing our blade.
As long as our arms and legs still move...
...we will protect humankind!
That is one who protects!
That is Golden Knight
Garo!
Fine. I shall erase you, so that mouth can never again smile.
I won't let you go.
Even if my body crumbles, I will not let you reach him!
You bastard...
This is?!
Sophie, let's go!
Yeah!
My lord, King.
You better be sure to make it back...
Sword! These things are just pieces of data! There's no end to them!
Then we have to attack the source!
Shit!
It is useless.
I am this very world. A sword cannot cut me down.
Then, I'll just have to destroy the entire world.
Zaruba!
Sword, use this!
Yeah!
Let's go!
Golden Knight.
Oh, my? What is this?
King disappeared...
Sophie!
You can only save your brother by destroying the storage unit!
I don't want anyone else to die.
So...
So please lend me power!
I want to protect Sword! Everyone!
It's all right, Sophie.
I'll always be by your side.
Martin...
But, I'm sorry. In the end, I wasn't able to keep my promise.
That's not true! I know, you know? You always did your best for me.
I've always been so happy to be your little sister.
Smile, Sophie. Always. Forever.
Yeah, Brother.
Sophie! Sophie!
Sophie! Are you all right?
Thank you, Brother.
So this is the path you choose.
You would never understand.
With this, ELDO NET will disappear.
I have to go soon, please take care of my brother for me.
Yeah, leave it to me.
Oh! Tell him that he needs to eat his spinach properly.
Yeah.
Good-bye.
Good-bye, Lizzy.
I haven't been this exhausted in a long time.
Let's go home and grab a bite to eat.
No, wait...
I'll say it again. Even if you pick up a woman, don't let her ride me.
I didn't say anything, yet.
