Go run through, just as your heart guides you
To the place of freedom which isn't shown on a map
In the town where a faint darkness settles
A crowd of people who hide their true faces
I struggled those days, but could not protect your smile
Soar above the sadness by piercing through
Shout out your passion
And take the pain along with you
To the future where you will meet your unknown self
I wonder if everybody already went home.
It's so dark outside.
I don't even know what time it is right now.
My watch has been broken for a long time.
Kei...
How long will I be riding on this dark road?
Chapter 5
Labyrinth Island
Episode 14
The Entrance Named Exit
What have you been doing since then?
Have you still been collecting Veri cards?
I threw them out when I got into high school.
Really.
I see.
Are you enjoying high school life?
I already quit school.
Why did you quit?
Didn't you enjoy your school life?
Haven't you found a girlfriend?
Did you have some kind of mature relationship?
I guess I have someone whom I like now.
I wanted to kiss a girl in a romantic way.
I wanted to have a mature relationship, too.
If I could...
then I'd also throw away those treasure cards.
I wish I could grow up to be mature enough like that.
Why did it have to be me?
It could have been anyone...
but it happened to me.
I won't be able to get out from this labyrinth.
I can't get out from here even with you, Bocca.
I will also have to stay in this place forever.
No you shouldn't.
I won't let you do that.
I came back to the same place again.
Kei?
Don't look!
Please don't look at me!
Just turn your head and look away!
This labyrinth must be inside his stomach.
He keeps chewing the things he ate.
Over and over.
I have been wandering around in his stomach like this.
Kei...
do you know why I quit school and went on a journey like this?
It's because I can't forgive the one who ate you!
Do the sacrificed kids who were eaten...
continue to die over and over here?!
Yes, eternal life is given to them.
Are you still trying to fight against me?
I told you.
While you are stupidly fighting against me...
the cunning Kurofune will get out from here.
Too bad...
but he used you.
Shut up!
I don't care what you say.
Even if I ended up never being able to get out from here...
I'd still fight against you!
What happened to Solo?
Did you eat him?
I'm going to eat you!
Using the Aibar machine is prohibited in this bullfighting ring.
And it'll put you in a fatal situation!
Ignorant Melos!
It's exactly the same.
He's using the same strategy as he fought against Mr. Kurofune.
But he wouldn't fight the same way since I already know his strategy.
How is he going to attack me?
Who is that?
Is someone from the future...
looking at our fight?
But...
Yes, this is a fight that happened in the past.
So, no one can interfere.
If no one can interfere with the past...
a person in the past can't realize that he's being watched from the future.
He may not know that I have already seen this fight.
Then, I think I can...
Ring out!
My Melos!
Flush!
Bocca, is that your name?
You did a fine job.
The sound of a bowstring.
Soul of serenade.
Mr. Kurofune.
Why are you still here?
What happened to Solo?
Horu took him away.
I guess you finally met him.
He went inside there.
I'm going to follow him with this.
I should be enough to fight him.
Why don't you get out of here already?
I'm also a warrior of Melos.
I even wounded him just before.
I'm still in the middle of a fight.
I'm going to take it and go.
No, I can't let you.
Mr. Kurofune.
I don't mind fighting against you if you wish.
Let me take care of Horu!
No, you can't.
Sayoko is outside waiting for you!
You are strong.
It's better for you to protect Sayoko.
I told you.
The person whom Sayoko needs is you!
Ring out!
My Melos!
Flush!
Ring out!
My Melos!
You are strong.
You can be even stronger!
You must defeat the Monster King.
The Monster King?
Let's meet again, if we survive.
Mr. Kurofune.
Mr. Kurofune!
What now? Are you injured?
It's not so bad.
This shrine was built to worship me.
My injury has already healed.
I sincerely envy the mysterious life force that you monsters have.
Life force?
We never had that kind of thing...
from the beginning.
It's a little too hot in here.
Let's go outside.
I feel annoyed whenever I see this scenery.
This infinite world is made only for me.
It makes me want to throw up.
How come you had to follow me this far?
As long as you keep eating children, I will.
The boy named Bocca is just like you when you were young.
Can he get out from this place?
I got out from here once...
so I'm sure he can.
Besides that...
he has the ball of thread that guides his way.
Oh, I see.
That ball of thread.
My injury has already healed.
I've already killed you with this arrow.
You should be able to live only inside of this labyrinth.
How did you get outside?
I realized that...
what really lies "outside of the labyrinth".
Let me tell you!
What lies outside of the labyrinth...
is "the real labyrinth".
I think I came to this place just before.
Which one did I enter?
But I can't just leave here now.
I haven't rescued Solo and I can't even take Mr. Kurofune out of this place.
Is this the exit?
Or, is it just an illusion from the past again?
Don't get any closer. It's too dangerous.
It's me when I entered in this place!
Don't worry. I'm going.
I know it's dangerous.
Can you stay here and protect Sayoko?
A warrior is satisfied as long as he's fighting, right?
You don't feel anything, even if you left me.
I would feel much easier if I left you.
It's like torture to sleep in the same tent with you all the time.
Idiot, you're not the only one who feels that way.
Sayoko.
Is this really the same place where labyrinth island was?
There never existed such an island.
That island had sunk deep into the ocean a long time ago.
Did you come here to pick me up?
That's because I already charged you for the round trip.
Sorry, I couldn't bring Mr. Kurofune out from there.
He is still fighting against the monster inside the labyrinth.
But I wonder if he disappeared along with everything else?
I was worried that you might disappear, too.
There is a rumor that...
this island pops up all around the Pacific Ocean.
Ever since the monsters began to rule the world...
so many strange things started to happen.
The Monster King...
Who is that?
Hecate, have you already come back?
Where is the Minotaur?
He is still playing on the island.
Is that Talos?
Pan, I haven't seen you for a long time.
Yes, I haven't had a chance to meet...
the Monster King for a while.
So, you came here to say hello to him.
They don't sing my song.
They don't sing my song that I taught them.
Little birds sing a little bird's song.
And everybody enjoyed it.
Medusa, are you having fun?
Just as you are...
Monster King.
Child Dragon gave us a report about the Silent Operation.
Do you think it'll be useful?
This operation might affect our decision on...
how we would handle the Union.
Your cheeks are so cold.
Again?
Still trying to send your empty message...
to the Melos warriors who are all around the world?
Who could actually reach this place...
where you really are?
Bocca Serenade.
He might...
be able to.
Hey, the quiet voice is sounding so sad
Why are you hiding your loneliness
And just smiling silently in front of me?
Even the night I'm losing the courage
that tomorrow will come again
So, let's go as far as I can to look for new pain
If you would be by my side on the night I can't sleep
I wish for a new future, just to hold it, so I can continue walking
Forever
Next Episode
It's unusual for them to kidnap so many...
and risk being exposed in the newspapers.
What? Skyblue?
How did you end up like this?
