[drill whirring]
AREA 07
[sighs] Finally done.
Thanks, Noir.
[Tokio] Done with the maintenance, Kanata?
You feeling like a real Drifter
after making a contract with Noir?
[Kanata laughs] Kind of.
[sighs] It's been three years, huh?
Yeah?
[no audible dialogue]
[grunts]
-[grunting continues]
-Look! Even your face is manlier!
-[chuckles]
-Tokio.
Anyway,
it's time to become a real man
down there too.
What?
[Kanata yelling] What!
-[Ellie humming]
-You look happy.
Of course, that's because
you're finally taking Kanata on a date.
I mean,
getting him to help you with a job.
Shut up!
-[electronic beeping]
-[gasps]
You're going out, Ellie?
Be careful.
There's an Enders Warning for tonight.
Yeah, yeah.
The forecast is always wrong anyway.
The storm is coming!
-Full of energy as always.
-The storm is coming!
Storm or not,
it's gonna rain so be prepared.
Got it. Thanks.
[Ellie] Kanata, you here?
I got a great job from Michael
What?
It's just Noir? Kanata's not here?
Yes.
-What does this mean?
-Huh?
[Noir] "Took Kanata to Desire for a bit
to play with boing boings.
-Take care of the rest."
-[gasps]
What?
That Desire?
Ha ha, I see.
What is a "boing boing"?
You don't need to know!
What was Tokio thinking?
Ange! Noir!
Get Kanata's Coffin onto the Carrier!
[Ange] Where are we going?
[Ellie] The job, of course!
But we're gonna get Kanata first!
R-Roger!
Desire
[Tokio] The City of Pleasure, Desire Nest.
In a world where death
is always around the corner,
this Nest can fulfill your every wish.
That's why it's called "Desire."
It's truly a paradise on earth.
So, Kanata! This is the Histoire
you've always dreamed of!
[person laughing]
Apologize to me for shitting on my dreams
and to my parents
who didn't fulfill theirs!
[sighs] I can't believe you took me
to a place like this.
I'm celebrating
my buddy's debut as a Drifter.
It's my treat.
And I'll even take you
to the best place for your first time.
No,
my first should be with someone I love
Kanata.
I'm making sure you won't live with
this regret for the rest of your life.
I won't go into details,
but your first time should be with a pro.
I've never seen you so serious.
What happened?
[Tokio] This is one of
the best shops in Desire.
[both giggling]
Now go in!
W-Wa-Wait!
[worker 1] Oh! What a cute boy!
[worker 2] We have one guest.
No! Wait!
Let a cute and sexy goddess
take you to Histoire!
I told you to stop saying that!
[chuckles]
Okay. Time to find me a different shop
to have fun in!
[person] I will join you
master.
Mouton! I told you to wait in the Carrier!
Damn! Stop screwing with me!
Playing around the red-light city
with a babysitter? What a sick joke!
It's been so long since we played tag.
I, Mouton, will gladly play with you.
No! Stop following me!
[laughs] I will not lose to you, master!
Get lost!
[Ellie] Geez, men are always like that.
Sorry for making you come with us, Noir.
Of course Ellie's worried.
The chastity of her
childhood boyfriend is at stake.
Don't say it like that!
Childhood?
Yeah.
Kanata and I grew up together.
He hasn't changed at all. That Kanata.
He's unreliable and a complete hack.
But he'll never give up on his dreams.
So thank you for becoming his Magus.
-Is the past important?
-What?
I do not have any data from my past.
And Kanata says it is fine to be with him.
But the past that Ellie has with him
seems important.
Noir.
Will it help Kanata if I had my data?
It's not about being helpful
I mean, how can I say this?
Sorry for interrupting, but
What is it?
I see something.
My name is Schnee.
You scared me! I thought you were human!
It's dangerous to walk around alone.
Even for a Magus.
[Schnee] Since it is dark out.
No, no, no.
Night or day, Enders could attack you
and there are nasty bandits on the road!
I'm grateful you're giving me a ride.
What? [sighs]
[Ange] Where should we take you?
I'll appreciate it if you
can take me to Desire Nest.
Desire?
Why are you also heading to Desire?
I will go to my lord
because he forgot to bring me.
He forgot? A Magus?
Men are always like that!
Making you call him "my lord" is extreme.
So, what's he like?
This king who forgot his partner.
He is a sword.
[all] What?
A straightforward man
who never bends nor wavers.
He faces all enemies and obstacles head on
and cuts them down.
But his rear is completely defenseless.
So attack him there.
What?
You are?
I am Noir.
You
Do you know me?
No.
You look similar to the goddess
my lord has been searching for.
Goddess?
[grumbles]
[concierge] Thank you for your patience.
Number 16, please enter.
[bells toll]
What should I do? I can't calm down.
Oh. [sighs]
You.
What, me?
Yes, you.
Your first time?
Yeah.
I see.
-Mine as well.
-Yeah?
[concierge] The guest with number 18,
please enter.
[masked guest]
I see. You're from Rock Town.
I've heard skilled Drifters gather there.
That's right!
The top team, Aventure, is really famous.
But I'm just talentless hack of a Drifter.
I even failed their aptitude test.
However, it seems you refused to give up.
What?
Did I misunderstand?
Are you not here
because you didn't give up?
[Kanata] He's right.
I became a Drifter
because I didn't give up.
Besides,
thanks to everyone accepting
and supporting me,
I can keep chasing my dreams.
[sighs, laughs]
What is it?
I thought you were arrogant at first,
but after talking with you,
you're actually pretty nice.
It's kinda, well, unexpected.
I see.
I don't know why,
but my subordinates all say the same.
I open my heart to everyone.
[stammers] Really?
I came here because they said
a fateful goddess
will lead me to Paradise.
Paradise? Goddess?
These types of guys are everywhere.
[masked guest] Yes.
Important work cannot be done alone.
I must be grateful.
What?
Yes?
[Ange] I can see Desire up ahead.
I hope Kanata's okay
with his first time!
Who cares!
Not like the first time is always good.
-[alarm blares]
-[gasps]
Enders Response confirmed.
Damn! That forecast is always spot on
at times like these!
Three Geysers and about 30 Chasers.
They're heading towards Desire!
That's a lot.
Desire's defense force will mobilize soon.
They'll have a hard time with this many.
Noir, can you drive?
-I cannot.
-I know!
-Schnee!
-I can.
Nice!
-Stop the carrier, Ange.
-Got it, master.
Ellie.
Protecting people from Enders at all times
is the Drifter's Way.
We'll help the defense force,
so you two take cover in the Nest.
And, Noir, take your Coffin to Kanata.
Okay?
[alarm blaring]
[Schnee] What will you do, Noir?
I will look for Kanata.
But I don't know where he is.
Then we shall go to my lord first.
Do you know where your lord is?
Yes.
My lord is someone
who cannot leave my side.
[concierge] Thank you for your patience.
-The guest with number 21, please enter.
-[grunts]
[sighs]
-Stand firm.
-Yes?
The goddess
who will take us to Paradise is waiting.
There is no room for hesitation.
It really feels like there is a Paradise
when you say it.
Go and triumph without fear.
I will be joining you later.
Yeah! See ya!
[alarm blares]
This alert is
An Enders attack?
-My lord.
-Schnee?
-Oh, Kanata.
-Yeah?
[stammering] N-Noir! Why are you here?
You've got it wrong!
Tokio forced me to come!
Ellie is fighting outside.
Ellie's here too?
Wait, fighting?
Ellie said it is the Drifter's Way.
And she is also with me.
You brought the Coffin too?
Then I'll fight too!
Paradise will have to wait.
Godspeed.
Thanks!
Let's go, Noir.
Thank you, Schnee.
Take care.
I came alone
to immediately secure the goddess
after receiving a tip from my subordinate.
It's for the Great Cause. Forgive me.
That was false information.
This land does not recognize the existence
of the goddess, the Key.
Is it confirmed?
I punished the one who gave
my lord false information
with holding a squat for 24 hours.
I see.
Then let us join the battle as well.
And GILBOW?
Is with me.
Please bring me with you next time.
Since your grace must carry the world.
I'm well aware.
I'm the sword that protects the innocent.
By God's will, my lord.
Ange! Your attitude control is way off!
You're too clumsy, Ellie.
[sighs]
Can Kanata even tame this hopeless tomboy?
That's got nothing to do with this!
How's the defense force doing?
They're putting up a good fight against
one Geyser and a dozen Chasers.
[Ellie] So we just need to take care
of the rest of the small fries
and two Big Geysers.
This ain't gonna be easy.
No complaining!
Shit!
[gasps]
[Kanata] Sorry I'm late, Ellie!
Kanata!
Leave the rest to us [groans]
Shit. You! Stop moving!
He's not gonna be
your knight in shining armor.
I don't expect him to be.
Just fighting together
is more than enough!
Our first team battle!
[Kanata] Whoa!
[Ellie] You ain't alone.
So stop trying to attack
while trapping it!
[Kanata] Okay.
[Ellie] But thanks.
Now speaking of what happened today
What!
Let's have nice, long chat after this.
Yes.
Okay, cover me.
I'm gonna attack the intermediate one.
Okay. Got it.
Cover fire is the most I can do right now.
Even with Noir's help.
Kanata.
I'll get stronger.
I'll become a Drifter that suits Noir.
Yes.
Now.
Get them!
[grunts]
Big Geyser approaching!
What?
This bastard!
[gasps]
It's a snow white Coffin.
The cover fire
Is unnecessary.
-Its back is completely open!
-No way!
What was that?
How would I know?
A human shaped light attacked the Enders!
Schnee. I'll be relying on you.
Leave your rear to me.
Yes.
I'll only focus on attacking the front.
Yes, my lord.
That one's getting away!
I'll create a path for my lord.
Wow!
It took out most of the Enders by itself.
Isn't that Drifter even better
than Michael or Tokio?
[Schnee] Forgive me
for dirtying GILBOW.
I will accept a paint of grime
for the Great Cause.
[no audible dialogue]
What was that strange, nostalgic scent
I sensed from him?
[Ellie] We managed to beat them.
[Ange] But most of it was done
by that white Coffin.
You did great.
Now we can take on that job,
right, Kanata?
What job?
I even brought your Coffin.
You're not saying no now.
Even if you say that, I still haven't
So, what haven't you done yet?
That's, well
Is it boing boing?
Noir? Where did you learn that?
Okay! I'll do anything!
[Ellie] We're splitting it 80-20.
Of course I'm getting 80.
-[Kanata] What? No way!
-[Ellie] Bleh!
[Tokio panting]
[laughing] Oh, wow!
I'm starting to feel really good!
So this is what Paradise is!
That's a great smile, master.
[both laughing]
