Tomb Raider King (2026) s01e08 Episode Script

1
Jooheon Seo? What are you doing here?!
Long time no see, old man.
Don't worry, I'm only taking him with me.
With our relics all busted up,
we couldn't fight anyway.
As if!
If you insist, I guess I have no choice.
The bodyguards about to attack us
shall suffer the agony of death.
And the source of the pain this time is
their crown jewels.
What? You tricked me!!
How am I supposed to restore
all this in three days?!
All you ever do is complain.
They look like they'll fall apart
if you so much as look at them wrong!!
Shut up! And watch your tone.
I'm your boss.
That's no way to treat an employee
Restorations aren't that easy, okay?
This amount will easily
take me several months.
Don't exaggerate.
Is this your restoration relic?
The Joseon Dynasty Painting Brush.
Try it yourself, and you'll see.
Me?
Just because you have the right relic
doesn't mean everything repairs itself.
I'll bet a year's salary
that you could never
Oh? T-This is!
Now you can even restore
things at that speed?!
Well, looks like your salary
for the next year is mine.
Why should I even take
on this job, then
if you can do it all by yourself?
Take a look at the relic's condition.
W-What is this revolting Dominance?
Begone! Get away from me!
See? Only someone with high Affinity
can use these things properly.
S-Still, I can't do it
at that kind of speed.
You picked the wrong guy.
No arguing. Just get started.
My investment is in your future self.
So give it your all.
You'll get better soon enough.
He's so simple-minded.
Now get to work.
[INSPIRED RESTORATION EXPERT]
YOU HAVE GAINED A NEW TITLE
AND UNLOCKED A NEW SKILL.
What is it this time?
“TOMB RESTORATION” (RANK F)
HAS BEEN UNLOCKED.
“Tomb Restoration”?
After obtaining the relic,
a tomb disappears.
Hello?
Why would I want to restore it?
Um, Boss?
OLD MAN EDDY
Hello, Edward.
Oh? You know who I am?
This is getting more and more interesting.
What? You two know each other?!
Of course. Edward will later
become the “King of Wealth.”
He's a British investor and
a major player in the relic market.
Right now, he's probably working
as a broker between relic users.
His insider information is worth gold
but it has lured
many people to their ruin.
I got curious when I heard
Taejoon Kwon was interested in you.
I may also have a job for you.
I'm all ears.
You're just as sharp as they say.
LONG LIVE THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA
LONG LIVE THE GREAT UNITY
OF THE PEOPLES OF THE WORLD
Recently, the Chinese government
put a bounty on a tomb.
Anyone who joins the excavation team
will receive a handsome reward.
In return, however,
China demands all recovered relics.
Apply for the job
find the relic I'm looking for,
and smuggle it out.
What do you say?
I'll pay you whatever you want.
Who are you working for?
W-What?
You'd never pick a fight with
the Chinese government over one relic.
So who's the one trying
to make this such a big deal?
You really are extraordinary.
All right, I'll tell you.
The request comes from
General Kiera Clark.
What?!
Kiera Clark, the “Queen of War.”
That woman knows no fear.
Now do you understand
the situation, Jooheon?
I do. And I'm in.
Gaah! What's going on?!
You're handing me over to the Holtons?!
M-Ms. Holton!
I beg you! Please forgive me!!
Selling your brother that forgery
w-was a mistake!
Please don't tell him!
It's all right.
I'm very glad to see you
again, Mr. Swindler.
Let's leave the Holton
family matter at that for now.
O-Okay!
He'll also help you with your problem.
Yes, of course!
From now on, we'll teach you
how to use relics.
What?
Since we can't separate the
Misfortune Relic from you yet
for now, it's probably best
that you learn to control it.
You'll learn Dominance from
me, and Affinity from him.
A relic that strong can hardly
be completely suppressed
so a combination should help.
All right.
And look, way back there
What a view!
Hm, strange
More than two thirds of Macau
has become a tomb.
Could that be the entrance?
Since the bridge has been destroyed, too,
we can only get there by boat.
Could this relic possibly have
something to do with ships?
What's wrong?
My restoration relic is gone!
You idiot, where were you
keeping it for it to be?!
Where did my wallet go?!
Thieves!
Agh, what is this?!
Call the police!!
Well, look at that.
Three things were stolen from me, too.
Not bad.
Rope from heaven!
Find the thief and tie them up!
W-We're playing? I really get to play?
Here I go!
Jahahaha!!
Yippee!!
Did you find something, Boss?
Unless that guy can teleport,
he won't get away.
Let's see who we've caught.
Uh, okay
Here, Master! She's right here!
Oho? Who do we have here?
A child? Do you know this girl?
An American agent.
She uses Medusa's relic.
From America?!
N-No, wait! M-Medusa?! Aah!
You messed with the wrong person.
Now, now. Behave yourself.
Before her curse, Medusa was
said to possess tremendous beauty.
You're too young for this relic.
And yet, it's in your possession.
Don't try anything funny, got it?
Why does it look like we're the bad guys?
Put her down, rope from heaven.
Why? Let me play with her some more!
You're definitely not alone
That's right! There are tons of us!
More than a whole class!
So you'd better let me go!
Oh yeah? If there are even
more than twenty of you
then an entire team
must have come here.
But the U.S. hired Edward for this job,
and Edward passed the job on to us.
They've covered their bases twice.
No matter which side succeeds,
the U.S. comes out on top.
Given how obsessed
Kiera is with this relic,
it must be pretty useful.
It'll be worth it to
snatch it for ourselves.
What? “Snatch”?!
We're not handing the relic
over to the General?
She's getting a nice forgery.
You seriously want to
scam America's top dog?!
I'm not doing it! Forget it!
Contract, page one, clause five:
The Contractor shall do as the
Client orders without objection.
Past me never sign that damn contract.
Hey, little girl. Ever heard
of the Code of Hammurabi?
The Code of Hammurabi?
Agh! No, no! Now let me go already!
We really are the bad guys.
Get away, you lunatic! I'll kill you!
What?!
You lost all the relics?!
Where have you been messing around, huh?
Calm down, Thomas.
How am I supposed to calm down?!
This is exactly why we never should've
brought a child onto the team!
She never does anything useful
and only causes trouble!
I didn't lose them! They were stolen!
Listen carefully.
If you tell anyone about us,
unimaginable pain awaits you.
Do you understand?
Stolen? By whom?!
I-I don't know
Is that some kind of damn joke?!
Aargh, I'm going to lose it!
That little brat!
Please tell us the truth, Vivian.
That's the only way we can prepare.
You promised to help us, didn't you?
Okay It was two men who
Haha, that tickles!! Hahaha!
V-Vivian?
Stop fooling around and spit it out!
So this is the “unimaginable pain”?
You damn idiot!
You're the idiot!
We're sneaking onto a freighter
without a plan to get to the island?
Now that the U.S. military is involved,
we don't have time to waste.
First things first, we need
to get inside that tomb.
What are you waiting for? This is
an emergency! Get to your positions!
Gosh, I thought we'd been caught.
Be quiet. They're coming.
What? Who's coming?
You're finally here!
I've been waiting for you, human!
It was waiting for someone?
Snakes? How uncreative.
W-What are those things?!
R-Really?
Oh? What's wrong with them?!
Aah, so that's how it is.
One bite from the snake,
and it controls them, huh?
Clever.
Such is life on the open sea, human!
You never know what will happen next.
You're seriously
underestimating me, relic.
What?
When humans are our opponents,
he actually comes in handy.
May all fools who let themselves
be controlled like zombies
regret their stupidity
slam their heads against the floor
in remorse and stop moving.
It worked, Boss!
Not bad, human.
Worthy of the crow's chosen one.
So you really are speaking
specifically to me.
The rumors about you have already
spread far and wide among the relics.
So relics exchange
messages with each other?
They're just attention seekers.
A lowly human dares
to call us attention seekers?
You talk big
for someone all relics are out to kill!
Is that so? Then they're
all welcome to come to me.
That would save us a lot of work.
You insufferable human will
Yeah, yeah. Let me ask
you something instead.
Who or what is this crow, really?
Together with the humans,
you killed our kind
and stole their powers for yourself.
Death would be far too merciful for you!
According to those Egyptian relics,
it seems to be quite
the celebrity among you all.
Why should I answer your question?
What's wrong? Don't you know?
How disappointing. I expected more.
What?! Who do you think you are?!
That wretched crow
He was an impressive God-grade relic
that, through its power of predation
absorbed the powers of its prey.
And yet that relic made
a contract with a human
and betrayed every last one of us!
Countless relics
became his prey after that
or slaves to his contractor.
Well, even so, we ultimately
managed to seal him away.
Then the tomb I ended up in before I died
was actually the crow's prison?
How did you lock away that fearsome crow?
It wasn't easy.
We drew his partner over to our side.
That disloyal human tossed him
aside like an old shoe.
That allowed us to seal the crow
and destroy that scum along with him.
Well? Has our brilliant strategy
left you speechless?
I don't give a damn about your strategy.
But thanks for the information.
What?!
Sounds to me like the crow
might not be so bad after all.
Were you even listening?!
If you side with him,
you make all of us your enemies!
So what? I never planned
to befriend you relics anyway.
As you wish!
Let's see how long you last!
What the hell are those?!
Guess it's on to round two.
Gaah!! Get away! Get away!!
You won't get far without these!
That's enough already!
There are too many!
We've almost got them!
B-Boss!
Damn it! That relic completely shattered!
That was our last combat relic.
Run for it!
J-Just wait for me!
Let's look for a lifeboat
that's still in decent shape.
We'll use that to escape from here.
T-There they are! Those are the thieves!
Get in closer!
You mean those two?
Yes, definitely.
If the little girl is with them,
then they must be the Americans.
This should be fun.
I'll take that guy.
You go find a boat, quickly.
O-Okay!
What's with that muscle guy?
Give us back our relics.
Ha, you wish.
Looks to me like you've got
a pretty nice relic there.
Should I take that from you, too?
You little worm.
Here, I'll stick it
right through your gut.
For his build, he's surprisingly quick.
But that relic
That's Rank A, no doubt about it!!
Hand it over!!
On the outside,
it looks like a steel pipe,
but its true form is definitely a sword.
If he lands one clean hit on me
with that, I'm done.
Then I guess I have no choice.
Ha, even with a weapon,
you don't stand a chance.
We'll see about that.
Come at me!!
Die!!
